When Yue Tong first returned to the country, she was indeed filled with suspicion. However, after so long without any incidents, she had relaxed her guard. Moreover, her father often invited Yue Tong over for dinner, and their childhood bond made it natural for them to grow closer.
The rich fragrance of mandala enveloped her as Yue Tong leaned over from behind to observe Yun Zhi Yue's painting, pointing out areas for improvement. Yun Zhi Yue's brush froze in her hand as she turned to gaze at Yue Tong's clear, reflective eyes.
Yue Tong touched her face and asked, "What's wrong? Did I get paint on me?"
Yun Zhi Yue shook her head. "Yue Tong, do you really like wearing perfume?"
Yue Tong was surprised and sniffed her shirt sleeve. "It doesn't smell like anything. I never use those things. Did I pick up a scent from one of the Art Gallery guests?"
Yun Zhi Yue lowered her head, her tone inexplicably serious. "Oh, the scent on you is quite special; it makes my heart ache."
Yue Tong raised an eyebrow. "What kind of scent is it that leaves such a deep impression on you? Tell me about it."
Suddenly, Yun Zhi Yue put down her brush and smiled softly. "I just remembered a story I once heard. Would you like to hear it?"
Yue Tong pulled up a chair beside her and sat down. "I would love to hear more."
Yun Zhi Yue didn't know why she felt compelled to share, but she couldn't help herself; perhaps it was the allure of that familiar scent.
In a distant sky lived a group of immortals, among them a male immortal known by the code name Xiao Zhi, who carefully nurtured a small blade of grass. As this was a tale of celestial beings, eventually the little grass developed its own consciousness and realized that the man named Xiao Zhi was everything to it.
The grass absorbed Xiao Zhi's essence and divine power, gradually growing and transforming into a beautiful little fairy. She adored Xiao Zhi, feeling joy for him and sorrow when he was unhappy.
Unknowingly, the little grass fell in love with Xiao Zhi, who did not reject this affection either. However, due to Xiao Zhi's large family and his status as an overlooked child, they did not pursue this relationship.
Yet in the little grass's heart remained countless dreams about this love story. Now that I've told you this part of the story, do you want to guess the ending?
"Tragedy," Yue Tong answered without hesitation.
Yun Zhi Yue tightened her grip on the brush and smiled sweetly. "Why do you say that?"
Yue Tong chuckled as she ruffled her hair. "Silly girl, it's obvious when feelings are unequal in status. Xiao Zhi may be everything to the little grass, but the little grass is not everything to Xiao Zhi."
Yun Zhi Yue's heart tightened as she struggled to hold back her emotions. "Yes, it's something everyone knows; yet the little grass just can't see it clearly."
As a result, later on, Xiao Zhi used the little grass as a remedy to heal his betrothed fiancée's injuries in an effort to restore their engagement.
She had personally drawn her own Xian Gu and was now confronting the Underworld. As Little Grass fell from the sky, she realized that everything was just a one-sided joke.
Because of him, she had given up everything. They were two people who no longer understood each other, right?
Reincarnation Stone was taken aback.
“Confronting the Underworld! I heard from the previous Meng Po that when you fell into the Underworld, your celestial aura hadn’t dissipated yet. Are you saying that it’s really that tragic for you?”
Yun Zhi Yue didn’t respond, staring intently at the man before her, seemingly waiting for an answer.
Yue Tong didn’t dwell on it much and pondered seriously: “If the story has no continuation, then it means they are mutually oblivious to each other. But if I were to write this story, I would include a continuation. No matter what harsh measures were taken, in the end, Little Grass belongs to Xiao Zhi, who raised her himself.”
Since she was his own, he naturally had the right to handle her. He could easily bring Little Grass back to his side once his family status was secure.
Reincarnation Stone was stunned. Was Little World this twisted?
Yun Zhi Yue didn’t seem surprised by this answer; suddenly, she burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face as she couldn’t contain herself, completely indifferent to her appearance.
Yue Tong blinked at her. Was he really expressing genuine thoughts? Was it that funny? What was the punchline?
