I wish a lover to become a family member, never old, and never stop loving.
Desiccated coconut (Hades & Ronghua)
When the pervert met me, it had already passed this year's Qixi Festival, and I naturally didn't take this matter to heart, and suddenly one day, I was sitting in the garden of the Hades Palace resting, and the pervert had just returned from retreating, and he didn't have time to change his clothes, so he was going to take me to a place.
"Hua'er, let's go." Without saying a word, he reached out and pulled me up, and walked out of the courtyard, leaving me confused.
One good afternoon, it was ruined, and I asked puzzledly, "Where is this going?" β
"Come with me and you'll know." It was rare for a pervert to sell in front of me, and I wanted to ask in detail, but after all, I let go of the doubts in my heart and let him lead me in one direction.
When we came to the main road, I was stunned by the scenery in front of me.
This place should be the royal city where the Hades Palace is located, rows of buildings of different heights extend from me, and the ghosts on the road are dressed in the costumes of ancient people, coming and going in the flow of people, and the perverts don't know when, put on familiar masks, and stand beside me.
In my ears, I can hear the lively cries of selling, the laughter and frolicking of children, and the sound of aunts bargaining with their bosses.
The appearance of the pervert naturally caused a great sensation, his dress is not an ordinary ghost at first glance, in the underworld, there is still a hierarchy like in ancient times, with nobles, officials, and emperors.
It's good that the womanizer has covered his face, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to stand here as calmly as we do now.
"What are you bringing me here for?" I still don't understand the point of him bringing me here in a hurry.
The pervert naturally took my hand and walked forward, I was half-pulled and half-pulled by him, and he didn't give me a specific reason.
Just when I was a little impatient and wanted to turn away, the pervert pulled me into his arms, put his arm around my shoulder, and gave me a gentle look.
"Hua'er, what do you think of this place, how does this whole city feel to you?"
I squinted and stared at him for a while, but when I saw that there was no intention of teasing me in his eyes, I had to say, "It's good, it's prosperous, and it's peaceful." β
The pervert's hand tightened, and he chuckled, "What about the other than these?" β
I looked around, and before I could find a word to describe my mood at the moment, the pervert hugged me tightly.
Then, he took me silently and traveled all over the city, and in the process of observation, I found that many men in the underworld today bought various styles of lanterns, and many men followed by women, and some talked and laughed past us.
It's like the state of me and the pervert right now. Even though the underworld is in the ancient period, the folk customs here are much more open than the ancient times of the yang world.
Some men and women held hands, blushing and at a loss, really like a young couple in love.
There is more than one of these phenomena, which inevitably reminds me of a festival in the yang world.
Valentineβs Day.
Is there such a festival in Hades?
While I was still thinking, we walked to the familiar Nai Ho Bridge.
Meng Po is different from usual, she is sitting on the steps at the moment, her legs resting on the front of the diagonal, looking at the calm water of the Santu River in a daze, her thoughts drifted away, as if she was thinking about something, the ferryman's bow actually put a lantern with a blue candle flame, shining on his front, but the light still could not shine on his face, and his appearance was still a mystery.
I squinted my eyes and felt that I was right, that today was indeed a very special day.
For those in Hades, it is so.
"Pervert, is it Valentine's Day in the underworld?" I leaned over and asked.
Although it is a question sentence, my tone is affirmative, after walking such a long way, my eyes are not white, and I naturally see something different from the past.
"I thought Hua'er wouldn't notice it."
The pervert said with some loss, there was a hint of sadness in those eyes, I squeezed his arm, and said angrily: "How can I know, and the underworld is in ancient times, where did Valentine's Day come from?" β
"Therefore, today is the Qixi Festival, which belongs to the Qixi Festival in the underworld."
After getting the answer, I finally knew why Meng Po sat on the stone steps, motionless, looking into the distance, on a special day like today, she must be missing her lover.
The human man who jumped into the Santu River.
I couldn't help but turn my eyes to the ferryman, he had always been a mysterious existence to me, Bai Wuchang was very afraid of him, and there was no fear of him, only curiosity.
However, as things stand, he must also be a man with a story.
Why did he become a ferryman, what kind of past did he have, listening to Bai Wuchang's words, his strength is definitely not weak, but he is willing to be a boatman, it makes no sense.
The black figure was almost submerged in the dark background, and the ferryman sat upright in the bow of the boat, and the lanterns placed in front of him kept on, and the candles seemed to burn inexhaustibly, constantly emitting light.
He seemed to be staring at it, thinking about something.
"Hua'er, do you know the purpose of me bringing you out?"
The pervert turned around, his hands on my shoulders, and his eyes fixed on me.
"I want you to take a look, this underworld that I have guarded for thousands of years, all the grass and trees here, everything you see, is my hard work for thousands of years." His hand caressed my cheek lovingly.
"I brought you out so that you could share this joy with me, and behold, everything here has been protected by me with all my heart and power."
I looked at him stunned, completely unexpected, he would have such intentions.
It took me a long time to calm down, and the pervert seemed to be waiting for my words, but when he saw that I had not spoken, there was a look of disappointment in his eyes.
I wasn't unhappy or dissatisfied, but I felt in my heart that I couldn't afford the "gift" he gave me.
From the moment he said that I was asked to share this prosperity with him, I was a little overwhelmed. His words made me feel a little more stressed. I had to show my identity as the queen of Hades and straighten my heart well.
As the queen of Hades, she naturally has to make her due contribution to the underworld.
The pervert seemed to see what was going on in my heart, held me firmly in his arms, and rubbed my little head: "Fool, what are you thinking? β
He lowered his voice and said gently: "You just regard the underworld as a gift from me, you are the queen of Hades, and mine is yours, and now the underworld is so peaceful and prosperous, this is great luck and happiness." β
The pervert's words woke me up at once, and my slightly stupid head suddenly opened up.
I finally understood his intentions for today's things, and I also knew why he rushed to my side non-stop after retiring from the dynasty and took me away to see these scenery.
As the king of Hades, I think that the underworld is better for him than his life, his everything, and even me.
But in such a way, he asked me to share this prosperous world with him, and I suddenly felt a warmth in my heart.
In my heart, there seemed to be something sprouting rapidly, constantly shouting, and the blood in my body was boiling for no reason.
The hand involuntarily reached out, grabbed the pervert's neck with the landlord, and grabbed his collar with the other hand, pulling his head down.
With my feet on tiptoe, I offered my lips and gently pressed them against his cold lips.
His cheeks rubbed against his mask, and the cool sensation of metal irritated my skin, but I completely ignored it.
The pervert was also frightened by my sudden move, and his hands stopped in the air.
I just dropped off like a dragonfly, quickly withdrawing so as not to be a pervert, I wrapped my hands around his neck, and a happy and sweet smile appeared on my face: "Since you have given me the whole underworld as a gift, then shouldn't I give you a gift in return?" β
He was about to speak, but I immediately covered his mouth, shook my head, and motioned for him to stop talking.
"You just had a sentence that wasn't entirely true."
I squinted my eyes and looked at him with a smile: "What's yours is mine, you can tell me and you too clearly." I buried my face in his chest and said something that had been holding back in my heart for a long time.
"Actually, I have long been your person, and I also belong to you."

Linin Chapter (Chris & Anning)
"Miss An, about the marriage between the An family and the David family, do you really stop thinking about it?"
After An Ning returned from his mission, he happened to meet Chris in the corridor on the third floor of the castle.
The sudden sentence, or this kind of topic, directly made the unprepared An Ning froze in place, she was carrying a backpack behind her, her face was covered with exhaustion, and it was obvious that the task of exorcising ghosts had exhausted a lot of her physical strength and vitality.
As soon as people are tired, this temper is not very good, and An Ning obviously does not want to discuss life events with Chris at this time, so he only stopped a little and continued to walk towards his room.
"Miss Yung."
Chris was still unyielding, and although he didn't stop her, he didn't let her go.
An Ning took a deep breath and turned around, her face was not good-looking, just when Chris thought she was going to be angry, An Ning raised her eyebrows: "Mr. Chris, I'm tired, I have something to discuss after I rest, is it okay?" β
For some reason, a smile appeared on Chris's face, and instead of forcing An Ning to reply at this moment, he smiled politely and stretched out his hand to signal that she could leave.
An Ning did not reject his proposal, but postponed the discussion.
Chris naturally understands what this means.
If she really doesn't want to, with her character, how can she be negotiable?
