Chapter 16: I Do Not Mind Even If It's Shallow
Kuang lang! [sound syllables]
The sound was sharp and crisp, a pair of eyes opened at once, as if having been woken from a dream in alarm
In the light ure led one to think of a branch of the Bodhi Tree in the West, carrying the whiff of clean, distant zen philosophy He sat with his back straight at a table, in one hand was the broken fraghtround, a ball of light was slowly dissolving
Rubbing the eyes, one sat up froe chair, and realised that one had fallen asleep unconsciously while waiting for Night in the Flower Hall Innocent anddrea that one did not dream at all
I have gotten used to eating breakfast at Night's Four Stars palace, and today was no different It was just that last night's y, who knew that during the ti breakfast one would have fallen asleep I wondered how th increased and decided that I must test it out when no one was around later
”Awake?” Night's voice was deep and low, his straight back was upright till it seemed a bit stiff
I gave an affirmative sound as I rose and headed to the table I looked at the table full of dishes and i, ht who cried, ”Be careful at your feet”
I looked down and realised that there were two sharp broken porcelain fragments at the tip of my toes It was truly risky I was about toan enchantht raised his hand to stop ht wind carried up the fraglea small half moon plate He used this small plate to carry some clean water and sat opposite me, his eyelids were closed as he quietly sipped
After eating finished, I raised ht was still in the same position He seemed to have drank the water into a state of utter concentration, but the water in the plate did not decrease by a drop I wondered what he was thinking so deeply about and reached out ?”
He suddenly appeared to regain consciousness and lifted up a pair of chopsticks to pick up a very fresh and delicate lettuce I did not knohy but his moverace He used the pair of chopsticks as if it was a weapon, he tried to pick up the lettuce a few times but he failed to Finally, he placed down the chopsticks and his dark brows lightly rose The Nightazed at the door and appeared to want to head out, but yet did not dare to
I kindly helped him to pick up the delicate lettuce and also scooped the five cereal rice for him I even removed the onion which he disliked fro but s the rice and vegetable for hi as considerate as I could!
Unlike the usual war to give ht and his broere locked together so deep that he hile theenerosity and lowered my head to look at my stomach
”Last night, the Beauty Night Scent Flower blooht continued, ”Unfortunately, Jin Mi was not around a flower blossomed but with no one to admire, it was lonely as its beautiful scent had no owner, a flower's greatest sadness has to be this”
”How is there no one to adht is the true owner Last night, the flower blooht was around, it did not blosso finished, I savoured the scent of the hot tea underexternal force will come upon me and I would fall into an eant face, both his ar my chest
”Am I her true owner?” The waraze, he leaned down and pressed his lips together tightly, there was an al his lips, as cold as the folklore songs, I couldn't help tre a little I suddenly fell into a sudden confusion as if there was endless mist everywhere
In ahard and cold like metal pricked on scale, just like when I first saw it, it reflected the dazzle of the daylight but also carried the light distant glow of the moon
The chest I leaned on lightly went stiff, as if this was the unexpected outco breath, ”In the last ten thousand years, I have only revealed my real self twice, but both times were seen by Jin Mi, this will cause those in the know to laugh”
