Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

With the closure of the wooden kite attack case, there have been no incidents in Tiandu City recently. Moreover, with the arrival of New Year's Eve, the bustling scenes on the streets formed a contrast with the demon-collecting team.

Zhuo Yichen has not yet recovered from the passing of Mr. Jiang.

Although he still gets up at 1:00 a.m. every day to practice sword, then washes and prepares for breakfast, goes out to inspect the security of Tiandu after breakfast, returns to the Ji Yao Si to handle official business at 1:00 p.m., has lunch at 5:15 p.m., takes a walk in the small garden of the Ji Yao Si to digest the food, then takes a half-hour nap, and continues to deal with the backlog of official business after waking up, has dinner at 1:15 p.m., sits in the small study for a quarter of an hour to practice calligraphy after dinner, and washes and goes to bed at 1:15 p.m.

However, Zhao Yuanzhou and the others could see that Zhuo Yichen was upset, but they could not speak to comfort him. After all, the relationship between him and Old Jiang was like that of father and son.

Wen Xiao said with emotion: "Speaking of this little Zhuo, he is really a miserable child. He has been without a mother since he was born. When he was a child, he stayed in Zhuo Mansion during the day and went to Hua Mansion at night."

After a short pause, Wen Xiao continued, "As time passed, Xiao Zhuo slowly grew up. However, at this time, Master Xuan succeeded to the position of the leader of the Monster Collection Division. He became busy with work and naturally could not accompany Xiao Zhuo all the time like before.

What’s worse is that due to the special jobs that Xiao Zhuo’s father and brother were engaged in, the other children outside were afraid of him, kept their distance from him, and even refused to play with him.

Not only that, but these children also said bad things about Xiao Zhuo, saying that he would become a terrible monster in the future. After hearing these words, poor Xiao Zhuo ran back home crying and heartbroken.

At this point, Wen Xiao couldn't help but shook his head, sighed and continued: "Later, when Mr. Jiang learned about this, he was very distressed and personally took Xiao Zhuo to find those children to argue.

Finally, their parents put pressure on the children and forced them to sincerely apologize to Xiao Zhuo.

Although the matter was resolved, it undoubtedly left an indelible shadow in the depths of Xiao Zhuo's young heart. Since then, Xiao Zhuo has never been willing to step out of the house to play outside. "

Wen Xiao paused, a trace of relief appeared on his face, "Fortunately, there is a kind-hearted person like Jiang Lao. Seeing that Xiao Zhuo was depressed all day, Jiang Lao took him into the back mountain.

He would take Xiao Zhuo to the back mountain, where he would make many beautiful, moving wooden toys with wood, and play with Xiao Zhuo to his heart's content and let him laugh. In this way, Jiang used his love to gradually dispel the haze that enveloped Xiao Zhuo's heart.

Wen Xiao sighed with a sad face, "Alas! Mr. Hua and his men are responsible for balancing the human world and the Great Wilderness, so they can't stay in the human world all the time. Sometimes, once something unusual happens in the Great Wilderness, they have to rush back to deal with it, and thus leave the human world. As for Mr. Xuan and his men, they are also often not at home because they are busy with the matter of collecting monsters.

As a result, Xiao Zhuo was mostly taken care of by Elder Jiang and Elder Wang when he was young. However, if Mr. Hua and his family were in the human world, they would take Xiao Zhuo to the Hua Mansion. After all, there were many weak plant spirits in the Hua Mansion, which was full of vitality and fun, which made Xiao Zhuo love to go to the Hua Mansion to play.

However, who would have thought that Elder Jiang would suddenly pass away! The impact of his passing was no less than the death of Elder Zhuo and Young Master Xuan..."

Zhao Yuanzhou suddenly stood up, which scared Wen Xiao and the others, "Big monster! Where are you going!"

"Something happened!" After Zhao Yuanzhou uttered three words, he turned into a black and red mist and disappeared in the conference room.

Zhao Yuanzhou came to Xiao Zhuo's door and suddenly remembered that it was Xiao Zhuo's time to take a bath today. Zhao Yuanzhou was about to leave when the door was opened from the inside.

"Zhao Yuanzhou! How come I didn't know that you had a voyeuristic habit! You shameless white monkey!" Zhuo Yichen was holding a change of clothes in his hands and wearing a white fox fur and silver silk brocade cloak.

"What peeping! What white monkey! I've told you so many times, I'm ape! White ape! And I just got here! I came to see you because I was worried about you!" Zhao Yuanzhou was so angry at Zhuo Yichen's white monkey, but then he thought, this was his own choice, no matter how hard or tiring it was, he had to finish it on his knees.

Zhuo Yichen glanced at Zhao Yuanzhou awkwardly, snorted, turned his head and walked away.

Zhao Yuanzhou really lost all his temper when he looked at the arrogant Xiao Zhuo, not to mention that Xiao Zhuo's long hair with the fragrance of grass and trees hit his face, which made him follow behind him in a restless state.

"Xiao Zhuo~ Don't be angry! It's all my fault. I didn't inform you in advance when I came here. I just saw that you were sad because of Mr. Jiang's matter~" Zhao Yuanzhou's tone of voice made Zhuo Yichen get goosebumps all over the floor.

"Shut up!"

Zhuo Yichen lowered his head and walked quickly towards the hot spring in his yard. Zhao Yuanzhou was even more distracted by her blushing cheeks, and he wished he could skin her alive and eat her.

Zhao Yuanzhou pursed his lips and followed all the way to the hot spring.

Zhao Yuanzhou sat quietly outside, staring through the thin screen at the figure behind the screen who was undressing - Zhuo Yichen. He took off his clothes one by one gracefully, and every movement was shown in front of Zhao Yuanzhou like a slow motion.

As his clothes gradually decreased, Zhuo Yichen's jade-white skin gradually appeared. The lingering smoke was like a layer of gauze, gently covering his body, adding a bit of mysterious and charming atmosphere. Crystal clear water droplets rolled down along his well-defined Adam's apple, like bright pearls, across his strong yet soft chest. Then, the water droplets slowly slid down along the fascinating mermaid line, and finally merged into the warm spring water and disappeared.

Zhao Yuanzhou was so absorbed in watching that a beautiful picture emerged in his mind: Zhuo Yichen in the mist looked like an immortal descending from the earth, with perfect proportions and radiant skin that made him intoxicated. Unconsciously, a warm current surged into his heart and rushed straight to his forehead, and blood instantly filled his nasal cavity. Suddenly, Zhao Yuanzhou felt something dripping down and hitting the back of his hand. He lowered his head and took a closer look, only to see a few drops of bright red liquid on the back of his hand, with a faint smell of blood.

At this moment, Zhuo Yichen, who had just stepped into the hot spring, suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood in the air. He frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Zhao Yuanzhou? What's wrong with you? I seem to smell a bloody smell?" The voice was clear and pleasant, echoing in the steaming space.

Hearing Zhuo Yichen's question, Zhao Yuanzhou woke up from his dream and thought to himself that something was wrong. He quickly raised his head and covered his nose tightly with both hands, trying to cover up the embarrassing scene. At the same time, he made up an excuse and said, "No... nothing! I just ate too much spicy food recently and got a little irritated!" However, at this moment, he was so nervous that he had forgotten his identity as a demon. He didn't realize that this reason might be feasible for ordinary people, but for a demon like him, it was really hard to convince people.

Zhao Yuanzhou felt that he couldn't stay any longer, so he ran out quickly, "Xiao Zhuo, I suddenly remembered that I didn't seem to have something to do, I'll come find you later!"

Zhuo Yichen looked through the screen at Zhao Yuanzhou who ran out in a hurry, and felt that he was acting strange today. However, when he thought of Zhao Yuanzhou's usual carefree look, he thought that it was probably his old problem again, so he ignored him.

Zhuo Yichen was soaking in the hot spring pool with only his head and shoulders exposed. The suitable temperature allowed Zhuo Yichen's body to fully stretch out, and his tired body after a day of work was also released at this moment.

After Zhao Yuanzhou ran out of the room where the hot spring pool was, he was blown by the cold wind, and his mind instantly cleared up, and then everything went blank, "Ah! What on earth did I do! Such a good opportunity! I actually... actually missed it!"

Zhao Yuanzhou was going crazy in the yard, but in the end, he was afraid of disturbing Zhuo Yichen who was taking a hot spring bath inside, so he had to leave Zhuo Yichen's yard dejectedly.

On the way back to his courtyard, he ran into Wen Xiao who came out of the Collection Department. Wen Xiao looked at Zhao Yuanzhou with an expression that said, "Did you fail or succeed? I guess it should be a failure!"

Zhao Yuanzhou just waved his hands weakly, and then floated back to his courtyard like a ghost. The moment he lay on the bed, he felt that he was really incompetent and cowardly! Such a good opportunity, but he wasted it!
