"Father, father?" I said stumblingly, my voice was a little dry: "You...why are you here?"

I pinched the hem of my clothes a little nervously, I didn't expect my father to be here.

The guilty conscience of being caught and the strange sense of bewilderment made me hide behind Xiang Yuanyi.

His father, Taketori, obviously saw this scene, and said in a helpless and troubled tone, "Oh, I think how cute Jiaojiao was back then, but I didn't expect that after running away with the wild man, I don't want my father anymore."

Taketori · Jiaojiao · Aoi: "..."

Jiguo·Wild Man·Yuanyi: "..."

Hearing his distressed voice, my conscience ached, I couldn't help poking my head out to take a look at his expression, and found that there was no distress at all except for a teasing smile on my father's face.

Only then did I realize that I had been cheated, and immediately walked out angrily, walked in front of my father under Zhu Shi's usual and Yuan Yi's surprised gaze, and stomped on his foot fiercely.

I don't know why I did this, but my instinct made me raise my head proudly after doing a series of actions, watching my father hiss and hug the foot that I stepped on and jump around.

(pride!)

(So ​​proud!)

(Pride breaks through the sky!)

(Pride breaks the earth!)

(Around the universe with pride!)

While dancing, his mouth was not idle: "That's right, that's right, this is my father's Jiaojiao. She looks just like your father. She can't suffer from any loss, and her pride can reach the sky."

I stuck out my tongue at him, laughing, and the strangeness that had just entered the door gradually disappeared.

"Okay, okay, Jiaojiao and Zhu Shi went upstairs to change clothes," the father put down his raised legs, with a gentle smile on his face: "After a tiring journey, let's take a good rest."

After I cast a glance at my father, I turned my head to look at Yuanyi. After seeing him nodding with a smile, I looked at my father and said, "Then I'll go up first?"

The father's smile remained the same, but his tone was more gnashing of teeth: "Go, go, I will have a good chat with this wild... Ji Guoyuan."

I heard his tone was wrong, looked at my father and said seriously: "Don't bully him."

My father slapped my head with a slap, and then rubbed it vigorously: "I know, I know, go up quickly, little ancestor."

I smiled at my father, turned around and followed Zhu Shi upstairs.

As soon as I stepped up the steps, I paused and looked back at my father.

He looked at me with a smile, his eyes full of love and indulgence, I pursed my lips and walked to him.

"What's the matter? What do you want?"

I pinched the hem of my shirt, then raised my arms and hugged him.

"—!"

Father's expression was flattered.

I buried my head in his arms and said softly, "I'm back, and I'm sorry."

I felt my father's hand on the top of my head, and the warmth made me close my eyes.

"Welcome home, Aoi. It's okay, you are my son, and it's okay to be a bit willful once in a while."

After hugging for a while, my father took the lead in patting me on the back: "Okay, okay, hurry up."

I withdrew from his embrace and smiled shyly under my father's gentle gaze.

My appearance was reflected in my father's eyes, and suddenly there was an expression on his handsome face, which was an emotion that I couldn't understand now.

"Actually...it's us who should say sorry."

My father spoke softly and I could barely hear what he said. I looked at him in a daze. Although I confirmed what my father said just now, the uncertainty in my heart made me subconsciously ask: "Father? What did you just say?" ?”

"It's nothing, nothing," my father returned to his original smile, waved his hand to drive me away, and said, "Go up quickly, don't make Zhu Shi wait in a hurry."

I puffed my cheeks in dissatisfaction, and elongated my voice arrogantly: "But——"

"Okay, okay, master, let's go upstairs and change."

Zhu Shi on the side suddenly made a sound, and I realized that there are other people besides me and Yuanyi here. After I learned of the existence of strangers, the words I originally confessed were filled with inexplicable meaning. shame.

Holding my suddenly hot cheeks, I passed Zhu Shi and ran up the stairs, hurriedly entered the open door, then slammed the door shut vigorously, and slid my back against the shoji door at the door.

At this time, I didn't have much thought to think about why this room is open, while the other doors are closed, which is obviously a questionable place.

Now I am full of thoughts: the previous confession was heard by other people, this kind of thing makes me a little ashamed and angry.

Even when he was leaving, he heard his father say to Yuanyi: "I'm sorry, Aoi has always been like a child." Such words did not immediately turn around to refute.

Indistinctly, my good hearing as a ghost allowed me to hear Zhu Shi's voice: "Yes, the young master is still the same as when he was a child, there is no change at all."

Then came the father's voice: "After all, he was spoiled by us."

"Aoi is fine now." Yuanyi's gentle voice excused me: "It's the best thing to be happy every day."

Listening to his words, I couldn't help showing a sweet smile on my face.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Since Aoi is changing clothes, let's go out and have a drink. Of course, the person who comes is a guest, and I will pay for the drink."

Following the footsteps of the two people walking away, I was relieved for some reason, and then I noticed that the furnishings in the house were somewhat familiar.

This set up...is a bit like the room I woke up in.

Zhu Shi's deliberately heavy footsteps appeared outside my house, she gently knocked on the door, knelt down at the door, and asked through the barrier door: "Master, have you changed your clothes yet?"

"Ah, not yet!"

I just remembered the purpose of my going upstairs.

Not good, not good.

I patted my cheeks, turned my head and stood up, and said to Zhu Shi through the door: "Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes now!"

"Then shall I get you tea and pastries, or do you need my help getting dressed?"

"I can do it myself!"

I rubbed my cheeks that were gradually getting less warm, and said vaguely: "Zhu Shi, go and do your work."

"I see, then, I'm sorry, young master, I'll leave for a while." Zhu Shi got up and said again: "Of course, if you need anything, you can call me at any time."

"Uh-huh."

I responded perfunctorily, and turned my head to look for the clothes I wanted to change in the house.

"Ah, found it."

Although it was a bit difficult to wear this kind of complicated clothes by myself, I managed to wear them.

After Zhu Shi knocked on the door and came in and saw my clothes, her face suddenly darkened, and I was shocked suddenly, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged in my heart.

Zhu Shi didn't say anything, but still said with that smile: "Ah, young master, I forgot to let you take a bath first, please forgive me, the bath water has been put away, you can go wash up first, and wait for you After washing, I'll get you a new set of clothes."

I looked at the throbbing veins on her forehead and face, and nodded while holding the toiletries she found from where.

I always feel that if I hesitate, something bad will happen.

Just like that, after taking a shower and changing into new clothes, Yuanyi and his father walked back from the outside with slow steps.

As a quick reminder, Zhu Shi changed the clothes for me, and I don't want to recall the process.

......forever.

"Oh! Have you changed your clothes yet?" My father's eyes lit up when he saw my clothes, he touched his chin and said, "Sure enough, this dress suits you very well."

"Huh? Is it suitable?" I smiled and walked around the two of them twice.

"Well, it's very suitable." Yuanyi's face was slightly blush.

"Hey!" I turned my head to look at my father with curiosity on my face: "Then, will father go with us next?"

"I have other things to deal with." My father touched the top of my head: "Next, I'm going to a place far, far away, and I won't be able to return in a short time."

"Can't you come back in a short time?" I frowned and looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"

My father always gave me a bad feeling when he said that.

"Really, really, what kind of eyes do you have? I'm your father. I won't lie to you. Your father will go back with me."

My father pulled my cheeks angrily and squeezed them on both sides: "Don't worry! We are all fine, don't worry! If you are lucky, you will meet us with that kid!"

"I know! Let go!"

We were laughing and laughing, not at all like the atmosphere before parting.

Zhu Shi kept handing over the prepared medicines to Yuan Yi, and my father took this opportunity to drag me outside the house.

"Jiaojiao, do you really want to live with that man for the rest of your life?" The father said worriedly, "That kid is just an ordinary human being."

"Well! It's decided to be him!"

I nodded firmly.

"Even if he is a human?"

"Even if he is a human!"

"But your life spans are different, you know that, right?"

"I know. In fact, father, I have thought about whether to tell Yuanyi what you said before." I looked at my father calmly and said, "But I... can't do it anyway. Yuanyi really yearns for it. I live a peaceful life, and I really hate the existence of evil spirits. Because of my own selfishness, I turned Yuanyi into a ghost, and forced Yuanyi who became a ghost to live peacefully with me. Yuanyi must not Will, and maybe we'll go our separate ways. I want to avoid that future, so I'll stay with him to the end and die with him."

The father said flatly: "No, father, I will absolutely not allow such things as death for love!"

I said helplessly, "That's not the point."

"Whether it's the point or not! Father, I will never agree with you dying for love!"

"We didn't say we were going to die for love!"

"Anyway, I just don't agree!"

"Father!"

"Okay, okay, I see." The father's face suddenly became very serious: "In short, you must want him, right?"

"Ok!"

"Then." Father nodded, took out a bottle of liquid from his arms, and handed it to me: "This is for you."

"This is?" I took the small bottle suspiciously.

"A potion that can turn you into a human being." The father said concisely, "I made it for you according to your physique."

"Really?" I uncorked the bottle and was about to gulp it down.

"Really, really! But listen to me first!" My father stopped me in a hurry, seeing that I stopped pouring the potion with my head up, and explained: "After you drink this bottle of potion, it will be like drinking sleeping pills. Sleep for a period of time, maybe a few days, maybe a few months, maybe even a few years."

I squeezed the bottle in my hand, stared at my father and asked: "But when I wake up, I will become a real human being, right? I won't be turned into ashes in the sun, I will taste all kinds of food, and I will be able to get along with fate." Die the same, right?"

Father nodded: "Maybe it was right before, but because it was specially debugged for you, I haven't tried it, but you won't die with him, because I don't agree!"

"That's good."

I ignored the second half of my father's words, raised my head and drank the potion in one gulp.

So what if I slept for a few years, anyway, I'm not at a loss.

I showed a smile to Yuanyi who rushed over and my father who was standing beside me, and the groggy darkness swept over me.

It should be... not a loss.

after all--

They are all by my side.

is not it?
