A long time later, it was already late at night. Exhausted from the fight, Ziyan was the first to call for a stop. She then plopped down onto a patch of grass in the small plain.
At the same time, Ling Yuxuan looked at Ziyan's weary appearance with concern.
He turned and leaped towards Waterfall Cave, disappearing from sight in an instant, leaving Ziyan alone to gaze up at the starry sky and the bright moon.
She couldn't help but feel a wave of emotions: although these days could be tiring and she occasionally got hurt, they were also fulfilling and brought a sense of happiness.
Living this life was actually quite good: she had loving parents and an older sister who cared for her, along with a handsome and doting young man by her side to accompany and protect her—
Just as Ziyan was lost in her thoughts, Ling Yuxuan, who had jumped off the waterfall earlier, reappeared beside her without her noticing. He had also started a campfire.
On the fire rack, two plump Golden Carps were being grilled, and there was a large Lotus Leaf Wrap placed in the fire pit. Ziyan knew without a doubt that it contained various bird eggs.
Feeling even happier, Ziyan stopped daydreaming and got up to sit by the fire. The fragrant smell of the grilled fish made her realize that everything she had eaten during the day had already been digested.
So she quietly sat next to the handsome young man, patiently waiting for him to cook the fish for her.
Ling Yuxuan glanced back at Ziyan and couldn't help but smile. It was rare to see his beloved child so quiet and gentle, almost like flowing water.
Ziyan blinked her big eyes at the smiling Ling Yuxuan and innocently asked, "Am I that funny?"
"Not funny; you're very cute and beautiful."
Ling Yuxuan continued to smile as he admired this adorable person in front of him.
Hearing Ling Yuxuan's generous praise for the first time, Ziyan was momentarily confused and could only return his gaze without knowing how to respond.
In no time, the two fish were grilled to perfection. Ling Yuxuan handed one of the cooked Golden Carps to Ziyan while he elegantly began to eat the other grilled fish himself.
Ziyan watched him eat and could imagine how it was when Ling Yuxuan's parents were still alive.
The depth of his noble upbringing must have been profound: even after living in seclusion for years in this desolate Primeval Forest, he still maintained that grand and elegant manner of eating.
Ling Yuxuan sensed someone was staring at him, trying to guess something.
So, with a piercing gaze, he suddenly spoke up, "What are you thinking about?"
"Ah? Oh, nothing, nothing at all?"
Ziyan was slightly taken aback but quickly regained his composure. He cleared his throat twice and adjusted the awkward expression on his face.
He casually remarked, "You eat more elegantly than I do!"
Hearing Ziyan's words, which seemed half teasing and half complimenting, Ling Yuxuan remained calm. After nodding in acknowledgment with a "mm," he continued to slowly take a bite of the fish.
Then, as if recalling something, he asked, "Is it tasty? I used the spices you prepared on the surface of the fish."
"Mm, it's delicious."
At that moment, Ziyan realized that the flavor of the fish Ling Yuxuan grilled today was different from usual; it turned out he had secretly used Ziyan's spices. No wonder it tasted so fragrant today.
Seeing Ziyan's satisfied expression, Ling Yuxuan felt an immense sense of happiness.
"Then eat more. Once you're full, we'll head back to the Cave to rest. Tomorrow morning, I'll take you to County Town to shop for some things you want."
After saying that, he used a twig to uncover the package of Lotus Leaf, revealing those fragrant Braised Bird Eggs. Without caring about their heat, he quickly peeled one and blew on it before bringing it to his mouth.
Until he deemed the temperature appropriate, he smiled gently at Beloved Child and murmured, "Alright."
Then he directly fed the egg into Ziyan's mouth.
Watching and listening to Ling Yuxuan, who was filled with concern for him and even cooled the bird egg for him, Ziyan felt sweeter in his heart than if he had eaten Honey.
After swallowing the ‘Heart-Shaped Token’ bird egg, he sweetly smiled at Ling Yuxuan and nodded in response, saying, "Hmm, I'll follow your arrangements."
Thus, after both had eaten and drunk their fill, in the beautiful and serene night, a pair of lovers dressed in white robes, resembling celestial beings descending to earth, held hands.
They leisurely flew up and down in the fields, whether to aid digestion or for training; after some playful gestures, the tall young man in white embraced the petite young woman in white and soared directly into the Cave behind the waterfall.
Of course, before sleeping, the passionate young couple indulged in a brief moment of intimacy.
But as usual, at the most critical moment, the young man would halt as if hitting the brakes, merely holding his Beloved Child's slender waist. Then both slipped into a sweet dream together.
Over time, there were moments when Ling Yuxuan could hardly bear it; feeling as if he might burst from discomfort, he would secretly rise and sneak into the Ancient Tree Forest to practice for a while when Ziyan had completely fallen asleep.
Once all the pent-up desires and frustrations within him were released, he would return to the Cave and lie down beside her.
In Ling Yuxuan's heart, he always remembered his promise to Beloved Child: that he would avenge his great grievances and only marry her when she turned eighteen, giving her a grand and luxurious wedding adorned with ten miles of red bridal attire.
