[I am never afraid of waiting, only afraid that the person I am waiting for will not appear. —Xunmi]
—————
The higher the rank, the harder it is to find a compatible person, let alone the ancestor of all dragons, which should be a once-in-millions-years encounter.
But of all things, that's exactly what happened.
My heart is bitter, my heart is tired, my heart is even more troubled.
It had no idea this would happen. If someone even more powerful than the source world were to emerge in the small world, just thinking about it makes me want to cry.
Hopefully, the main god won't destroy it when it finally returns. Feeling particularly aggrieved, the baby jumped onto Tan Zixi's face again and stomped on it fiercely.
Thinking to myself, "You're not following the script, you've made me tremble with fear, I'll stomp you to death, stomp you to death."
Imagination is beautiful, but reality is harsh.
The baby had only stepped on it once when a pair of slender, fair hands lifted him up.
"Baby, what are you doing? Go play somewhere else. Zixi's face isn't a place for you to play around."
Without any gentleness, she tossed the white fluffy ball aside and gently wiped the spot where the baby had stepped with a towel.
The baby was completely upset, biting a handkerchief that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, crying softly.
Xunmi had no time to care about the baby; she thought she had just seen Zixi's finger twitch.
But upon closer inspection, nothing seemed amiss. I rubbed my eyes and looked again, but there was still no reaction.
He smiled bitterly to himself, realizing that his own eyes had been deceiving him.
'Host, don't worry, he's really alright, baby promises, he'll wake up soon.'
Based on the timeline, it should be around these next day or two.
The baby wasn't planning to tell her host, since the host had bullied her.
But seeing the host so sad, the baby couldn't bear it.
Looking at the upturned corners of her eyes, this wasn't the first time Bao Bao had told her with such certainty that Zi Xi was alright.
All told, it seems like it's happened more than ten times, and each time it was said with a very certain tone.
Could it be...? 'Baby, do you know something?' Though it was a question, it was asked with great certainty.
The baby, short of breath, shrank back and immediately retorted, "Host, what are you talking about? I don't know!"
'The baby has only had his physical data scanned, and everything is fine.'
Silently giving myself a thumbs up in my heart, I'm so clever!
'Yeah?'
"Yes, yes." The baby nodded decisively.
Xunmi twisted the white fluffy ball of fur, her eyes narrowing slightly: "Baby, do you know what the consequences are for lying to me?"
She stuck out her tongue and traced the outline of her pink lips; the bright red color looked somewhat bloodthirsty, yet also alluring and dangerous.
The baby is really crying, sob sob sob~~~ Host, you're so scary.
She curled up even tighter, and said hesitantly, "Baby's telling the truth, he'll wake up soon."
The baby felt that having such a clever host wasn't a good thing, because he was so hard to fool.
I'm so tired, I need some comfort.
After confirming that the baby wasn't lying, she crumpled the dumpling in her hands a couple of times before placing it on her shoulder.
I continued to give Zixi a full-body massage to prevent muscle atrophy caused by prolonged sleep.
…..
Tan Zixi felt as if she were in a dark space with no end in sight.
He kept hearing voices, and subconsciously he knew that one of them was Mi'er's.
He wanted to wake up, but he couldn't break free from the shackles of darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, a golden light appeared in the dark space and shot straight towards him.
He tried to dodge, but it was too fast for him.
After a moment of distraction, he felt as if something had entered his mind, and his body was forced into a deeper state of dormancy.
But he could clearly feel the solidification of his muscles, the hardness of his tendons and bones, and his body was full of power.
His mind cleared up, and he could hear Mi'er talking to him and feel her slender yet strong hands moving over his body.
His favorite part of the day is the massage; just thinking about it makes his mouth water.
Today, as usual, he was processing the new, unknown thoughts that had appeared in his mind while waiting for his beloved Mi'er to give him a massage.
But then came a thunderclap out of nowhere!
Mi'er actually said she didn't want him anymore, she didn't want him anymore, she didn't want him anymore~~~
This won't do; we absolutely cannot tolerate this.
At this moment, Tan Zixi didn't know where the power came from, but he broke through the darkness that had imprisoned him.
With great effort, he moved his fingers, and finally, feeling the real presence, he worked hard to coordinate his body and slowly opened his eyes.
The midday sun was very strong, but it was mostly blocked by the people around him, so it did not irritate his eyes at all.
It was that same exquisite and beautiful face that captivated me.
She still had those beautiful peach blossom eyes, but they lacked vitality and had become much darker.
My heart suddenly ached. The person I had vowed to cherish and protect has become much thinner and lost their former radiance.
It's all my fault: "Mi'er." I reached out to stroke Xunmi's hair, but found I had no strength.
His voice, which had been silent for a long time, was hoarse and deep, unlike that of an ordinary person, as if it had been weathered by the passage of time.
Xunmi had just put the dumpling down when she heard someone calling her; the hoarse voice carried a calming power.
Looking up in disbelief, she met a pair of golden, peach-blossom eyes, and clearly saw her own reflection in them.
Action preceded reason; she threw herself onto Tan Zixi, her voice choked with sobs as she searched for him: "Brother Zixi, Brother Zixi, you're finally awake."
I'm not afraid of waiting for you, I'm just afraid of not being able to wait for you.
Tan Zixi turned his head and gently kissed Xunmi's hair, showing great tenderness and affection.
"It's because someone said that if I don't wake up soon, they won't want me anymore."
"So how could I not wake up? How could I let you go? You can only be mine for the rest of my life."
Of course, in the next life, and the life after that, and in every lifetime, they will be mine.
Two people, two hearts, came together and formed a beautiful blueprint.
Their lives are woven into the tapestry of laughter, sweet words, heartache, and above all, happiness.
Xunmi nodded repeatedly: "I am yours, and I will always be yours."
Even if I am reincarnated again, my heart will still belong to you, and no one can take it away.
The person outside the door breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally woken up.
For nearly two months, they watched as Xunmi personally took care of their son, and it would be a lie to say they weren't moved and heartbroken.
Even knowing that her son was lying there because of her, she still felt sorry for the child.
Without going in to disturb the two, he turned around and went to find the doctor.
After a round of examinations, even the hospital director exclaimed that it was a miracle. After recuperation, Tan Zixi was finally allowed to be discharged.
The dean had already said that everything was fine, but Xunmi was still worried and asked him to stay for another half month.
Tan Zixi, of course, wouldn't refute her beloved's words and obediently stayed behind.
With his lover in his arms every day, he can do whatever he wants with her. He doesn't want to leave this kind of life.
The moment they were discharged from the hospital, Tan Zixi took Xunmi to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
