Chapter 184 The Moon is Bright

Back in her room, Lin Huan gently pushed open the door and was startled for a moment. In the room at this moment, a familiar figure stood with his back to her, like a still sculpture.

"Sir..." Lin Huan called him in a low voice.

Mr. Zhongli turned around upon hearing the voice, his eyes fell on her quietly. In the past, he was always so warm and gentle when facing her, with a gentle smile like a spring breeze. However, this time, it was completely different. At this moment, his eyes were like deep lake water, containing an indescribable depth and solemnity. Lin Huan's heart suddenly sank, as if falling into an ice cellar, and she stammered... As expected, this matter... still made Mr. Zhongli worried and sad.

"Sir..." Lin Huan spoke again, his voice soft.

“Xiao Huan…” Mr. Zhongli spoke slowly. His voice was low and a little hoarse, like an ancient bell that had gone through the vicissitudes of time.

"Come, come to me..."

Lin Huan's heart tightened, but he still walked forward involuntarily, walked to his side, tightly held his slightly cold hand, and looked out the window with him at the bright moonlight. However, at this moment, the floating clouds slowly floated by like a veil, blocking their view.

“Ah Huan…” Mr. Zhongli was silent for a long time, and finally he sighed softly. The sigh was like a wisp of light smoke, slowly dissipating in the air. “You scared Liuyun badly… She searched almost half of Liyue, but couldn’t find the place where you sealed yourself…”

"Not only that... there are also Sogetsu, Risui, Ping... and Xiao."

"They are all filled with fear..." Mr. Zhongli raised his hand and gently touched the top of her head.

"Me too..."

"......Sir, I'm sorry..." Lin Huan whispered, "It's my fault that you are like this..."

"No need to apologize, you are also doing your best for the important people...you haven't done anything wrong." Mr. Zhongli comforted softly.

Lin Huan raised his head, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, "But...if it weren't for me, everyone wouldn't be so worried."

Mr. Zhongli shook his head. "They care about you because you hold an important place in their hearts. This kind of sincere emotion is not caused by right or wrong."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, your safe return is the best comfort for them. Go back to Jueyunjian to see them in a few days... You can bring the children with you, as you still owe them a spring outing."

After a pause, Mr. Zhongli chuckled and said, "You know, they love human children the most... Xiaoqi and Qiqi went to Qingyun Peak to look for Xieyue but failed to find her... Next time you can take them to Jueyunjian as guests and let the immortals show their hospitality, which would be great."

Lin Huan nodded slightly, and the guilt in his heart was slightly alleviated.

Mr. Zhongli stared at the bright moon outside the window, his hand on Lin Huan's head still not moving away. The ends of his hair behind him were gleaming slightly, as if he was exerting divine power.

After a long time, Mr. Zhongli withdrew his hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "I believe you have also learned something from this incident. Everything in the world has its own laws and destiny. There are some things we must face, we cannot escape, and there is no need to escape. I know you have no regrets about your move, but you still have to consider the people around you who love you deeply... Ah Huan, when you make a decision in the future, you must never forget it again..."

Lin Huan raised his head and looked at Mr. Zhongli quietly, trying to find some clues from his deep eyes, but failed. Finally, he sighed softly, lowered his eyes and responded.

"Sir, I understand. From now on, I will cherish everything around me more and stop making everyone worry about me."

Mr. Zhongli smiled and nodded, "That's great."

In the night sky, the floating clouds gradually dispersed, and the bright moon once again cast its cool light. The two stood side by side, quietly admiring this picturesque and beautiful night scene, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.
