Chapter 675 - 675 Do I Like You?
675 Do I Like You?
Huanhuan was immediately relieved when she heard this. “That’s good…”
“Because he thinks killing people is very unskilled.”
Huanhuan had a bad feeling.
“I remember the most recent incident. The unlucky person who offended Lin Qing had his limbs and tongue cut off. His tongue was then soaked in a medicinal vat. He couldn’t live like normal but couldn’t die either. Tsk tsk, he looked so pitiful.”
Huanhuan: “…”
“Why are you trembling?”
Huanhuan buried her face in his chest and sobbed. “Lin Qing said that he’ll give me 100 questions next time. If I get one wrong, I’ll be punished.”
Little Brat comforted her. “It’s okay. If he dares to bully you, come and tell me.”
Huanhuan was touched. “Dad, you’ll protect me, right?”
“I can’t protect you. I can only gently comfort you and tell you to endure it when you cry out in pain.”
Huanhuan: “…”
She pushed Little Brat away and cried!
“What do I need you for?!”
Little Brat thought about it seriously. “I can help you mosaic that experience so that you won’t be frightened by the bloody scene in front of you.”
Huanhuan realized with pain that their father-daughter relationship might end soon.
…
Huanhuan opened her eyes and saw Yun Hui standing by the bed.
He stared down at her without moving.
He was like a statue.
Huanhuan sat up and rubbed her body, which was a little stiff from lying down for too long. She asked, “How long have you been standing here?”
“Not long.”
Yun Hui’s mouth shocked Huanhuan.
His voice was very dry as if he had not drunk water for many days. It scratched her eardrums.
Huanhuan couldn’t help but frown. She stared at the man in front of her and took a closer look. She realized that he had dark circles under his eyes, his lips were very dry, and there was some stubble on his chin. He looked haggard.
“What’s wrong? Are you sick?”
Yun Hui said no.
Huanhuan got up from the bed. She reached out to touch Yun Hui’s forehead and realized that his temperature was a little low. “You’re sick. Go back to your room and lie down. I’ll get you some medicine.”
Yun Hui was unwilling to leave.
Shuang Yin walked in. She looked a little tired, but the moment she saw Huanhuan, her eyes lit up.
“Mom, you’re finally awake!”
She quickly walked over and hugged Huanhuan tightly.
“Mom, you slept for more than 10 days. We thought you would never wake up again. You scared us to death!”
Only then did Huanhuan remember that she had forgotten to tell Shuang Yin before entering the learning space.
She quickly told her about her ability to enter the learning space after falling asleep.
“I’m sorry I made you worry.”
Shuang Yin heaved a long sigh of relief. “Nothing else matters as long as you’re fine. If this happens again, remember to tell me in advance.”
Huanhuan felt very guilty. “Yes, I definitely will.”
Shuang Yin said to Yun Hui, “Mom is already awake, so you can rest assured. Can you go to sleep now?”
Seeing that Huanhuan was indeed safe, Yun Hui walked out of the room silently.
Shuang Yin went downstairs to get some food and brought it up for Huanhuan to eat.
After starving for more than ten days, Huanhuan couldn’t take it anymore. She grabbed her bowl and chopsticks and quickly ate.
When she was 70 to 80% full, she slowed down and asked if anything had happened in the past few days.
Shuang Yin said, “Nothing special, but Aunt Xue Hui came to look for you twice.”
“Why was she looking for me?”
“Maybe it’s because the Divine Wood clan is infertile and she wanted to ask if you had thought of a suitable way. I said you’ve been in poor health recently and needed to rest quietly. I stopped her from visiting.”
Huanhuan replied, “Okay.”
Shuang Yin hesitated, then said, “Mom, does Uncle Yun Hui like you?”
Huanhuan, who was drinking soup, was so frightened by her words that she almost choked.
Huanhuan quickly put down the bowl and coughed as she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
When her throat felt better, she said, “You’re just a child. Do you know what it means to like someone?”
“I’m an adult now. I’m not a child anymore. I have eyes and a head. I can see how much Uncle Yun Hui cares about you, and I think he has feelings for you.”
Huanhuan had mixed feelings. “Little Black is still young. He probably sees me as his only family, so he’s especially dependent on me. That’s why you all misunderstand him.”
Faced with her explanation, Shuang Yin did not debate whether it was true or not. She just told the truth about what she had seen.
“While you were unconscious these past few days, Uncle Yun Hui has been by your bed. He hasn’t left your side nor rested. He was nervous about you as I was.”
Huanhuan recalled Yun Hui’s dejected and tired appearance just now and finally understood why.
She felt even guiltier. “It’s my fault.”
After she finished eating, Shuang Yin cleared the dishes and said, “I think Uncle Yun Hui treats you quite well. Why can’t you accept him? Is it because Dad and my other three fathers are unwilling?”
Huanhuan shook her head. “It has nothing to do with your fathers. I just don’t feel that way about Little Black. I treat him as family and not as a lover.”
“That’s a pity. I thought Uncle Yun Hui would be a member of our family.”
“Even if he’s not my mate, he can still be a member of our family.”
“That’s different.”
Huanhuan was a little amused. “How is it different?”
“If you become mates, you’ll always be together in the future. In the future, you might even give birth to many children. Our family team will become stronger and better. But if you’re not mates, it means that Uncle Yun Hui might fall in love with other females in the future and become a member of someone else’s family. From then on, he’ll leave us and drift away. He might even stop contacting us in the future.”
At this point, Shuang Yin sighed. “I keep feeling that this is a pity!”
Huanhuan was a little surprised. She did not expect her eldest daughter to think so far ahead.
“Although I’ll be disappointed, as long as Little Black is happy, I’ll smile and wish him well even if he has to leave us in the future.”
“Alright, since you’ve thought it through, I have nothing to say. I respect your choice.” Shuang Yin carried the bowls and chopsticks out.
When she pulled open the door and walked out of the bedroom, she looked up and saw Yun Hui standing not far away.
He leaned against the wall, most of his face hidden in the shadows.
Shuang Yin couldn’t help but stop. She asked, “Did you hear what I just talked about with Mom?”
“Mhm.”
Shuang Yin coughed lightly. “I’m sorry for being nosy and asking too many questions. I hope you don’t take what we just said to heart.”
