Chapter 2088 I Can Endure the Darkness
"Here, your plain water."
"thanks."
Yao Ziyan took the cup handed over by An Nuo, and the light water mist rose, and the clear white water was simple and unpretentious.
Anno poured himself a glass of juice, which was quite bright orange, and it seemed to be quite sticky. It looked like it should have just been made with fresh fruit.
It only needs to use the hand of the mage and a few other simple magics to achieve, which is easy for the supernatural.
"Do you want to drink juice? There is still some left." Anno held the cup in both hands, and showed a satisfied expression after taking a sip.
"Forget it." Yao Ziyan smiled and shook her head.
People always change, probably because of enough experiences, and it will be discovered in the end that the things that were originally trivial and ignored and looked down upon are the absolute truth.
Like plain water.
An ordinary cup of ordinary hot water has an effect that other beverages do not have. No matter what changes occur in the body, as long as drinking plain water will definitely have an effect.
This is what Luo Chuan told her.
An Nuo snorted and didn't care much. What Yao Ziyan wanted to drink was her freedom, and her eyes fell on the book again: "Where did you see?"
"I was a guest at the boy's house." Yao Ziyan turned another page.
The illustration should be of a spacious and bright living room, with rich and delicious food on the dining table, and the white-haired girl is enjoying it with a happy expression on her face.
A teenager and a middle-aged man were sitting on the other two sides of the dining table. The latter should be the father of the former. With a hospitable smile on his face, he was looking at the witch sitting opposite.
I don't know if it's the illusion of Yao Ziyan, but I always feel that the fat middle-aged man's smile is a bit weird.
In addition, there was a maid who was not too old standing by the dining table, who looked similar to the boy.
She lowered her head slightly, making it difficult to see the expression on her face, but on the hands folded in front of her, one could see that there were many old and new scars.
But the boy didn't seem to see this, he was holding the jar in his arms with a happy expression, thinking that he should be thinking about when to give it to his beloved.
As for the loved one, I think it was the maid.
"This is a bad story." Anno sighed softly, "I also understand one thing, the witch is just a traveler, she will not take the initiative to intervene in anything that has nothing to do with herself, compared to As an actor on stage, she positions herself more like an audience off stage."
"The actors on the stage and the audience off the stage..."
Yao Ziyan whispered to herself, she suddenly thought of Luo Chuan.
It seems that Luo Chuan is not the same as the witch in the book. To be precise, he is more of a freewheeling type. In short, he can do whatever he wants without much psychological burden.
Hmm...that doesn't seem to make a difference.
"No spoilers, I haven't finished it yet." Yao Ziyan poked An Nuo's arm as a reminder.
"Oh." Anno watched Yao Ziyan immersed in the story again, and quickly turned his attention to Chimera.
It may be because of the new environment, and he is full of curiosity about the things around him, but he is not as sleepy as before.
Now he is wandering around in Anno's room, and from time to time he gets close and smells the smell, as if he is patrolling his territory. Fortunately, he does not have the habit of leaving his own mark on the territory. Otherwise, Yao Ziyan may throw it out the next day. .
"Chimera, look here, there is food to eat..."
Anno is still the same as before, holding the jerky and continuing to tempt Chimera, trying to make it come to him in this way, but unfortunately the effect does not seem to be very good.
Twilight is getting darker.
Time flows quietly, and it is always quiet in the middle of the night. Everything in the city falls into silence. Lights occasionally flow on the road in the distance, and the buildings in the distance stand quietly like silent giants.
There are thousands of stars twinkling in the night sky, and the number of stars is unknown to even the most knowledgeable great magister.
Two bright moons, one big and one small, quietly hang above the night sky, and the light blue moonlight forms a slightly blurred halo around it. You can vaguely see the hazy wood grain on the surface, which is maintained in the magnificent background of the starry sky. There was a long silence, and the light blue veil-like hazy moonlight shone down.
The moon is high, and the night sky is silent.
The endless sea of stars hangs above the heads of mortals as always. Time seems to have fallen into a long cycle here. Day after day, year after year, only the mortal civilization on the ground changes in life and death, and there is continuous civilization recovery, and continuous civilization. Destruction, compared to the entire universe, is nothing but a small corner.
The bright and soft light expelled the gloomy twilight, and there was a faint sound of insects coming from outside the window, but it made the night seem more serene, and even the rustling of the pages turning was quite striking.
Anno sat in front of the desk by the window, resting his chin in one hand, quietly looking at the dark blue night sky.
The stars and the bright moon were reflected in the blue eyes. I didn't know what to think. The other hand stroked the Chimera lying on the table. After the unremitting efforts of the elf girl, it finally paid off.
Yao Ziyan sat on the head of the bed with her pillow behind her back, and read the big book with a black cover on her lap. She was completely immersed in the world depicted by the words.
After a long time, Yao Ziyan put the book aside and let out a light sigh of relief.
"Have you read it?" Anno looked back when he heard the movement.
"Yeah." Yao Ziyan nodded.
"How do you feel?" The elf girl asked Yao Ziyan's thoughts.
"Um……"
Yao Ziyan looked down, and the page where the book was located was an illustration. The boy in the picture presented the happiness in the bottle as a gift to the maid. The happiness of various colors wrapped the girl, making her unable to help revealing that she didn't know. Overwhelmed look.
The window of the room was open, and the cool wind in the middle of the night just happened to blow, turning the next page.
The girl in the maid costume was covered by shadows, biting her lips and clenching her palms quietly, but the happiness in the bottle had disappeared. The boy who gave the gift smiled happily. Perhaps in his opinion, it must be a happy thing to be able to make the beloved girl feel the happiness of others.
"It is indeed a story about happiness." Yao Ziyan said softly.
Perhaps it was because of her past life. Before she was bought and sold to become a maid, the girl in the story also had a perfect family, but now everything has turned into a memory, and the reality is always cold and ruthless.
