"Of course, with Jun Moyan here, I was definitely coming back."
"That’s good, then I will wait for you here."
"Yes, I will definitely come back."
Wen Xiao’ai smiled, watching the boy looking irresistibly adorable, and couldn’t help wanting to pinch his bun-like cheeks, but her hand passed right through him.
She simply couldn’t touch him.
Wen Xiao’ai sighed, "Do you really not remember anything? You look even younger than me, how could you possibly have died?"
"I really don’t remember."
Wen Xiao’ai observed the boy and said thoughtfully, "You’re wearing Human Realm clothes and have their hairstyle, did you perhaps live in the Human Realm when you were alive?"
"All right then," Wen Xiao’ai felt somewhat disheartened.
"By the way, sister, how did you become friends with humans? Do they know you’re a Demon? That Jun Moyan, is he the one who saved you that night? He seems to be very nice to you."
"Of course, Jun Moyan is really good to me, he cherishes me the most, I really like him a lot." Wen Xiao’ai spoke of Jun Moyan with unconcealable admiration and affection in her eyes.
"Then does he know you’re a Demon?"
"Isn’t he afraid of you then?"
"I’m his Xiaoguai, how could he possibly be afraid of me?"
"Aren’t you afraid he might hurt you?"
"Why would I be? He cherishes me a lot. You see, sometimes he might seem fierce and scary, but he’s really a good person. Wait until he comes back later, I’ll introduce you."
The boy quickly shook his head; his pig-tails swaying, "Better not, he can’t see me, and I’m timid, I’m afraid of strangers."
Wen Xiao’ai looked at his pig-tails and asked, "Bun, who did your hair? It looks like a girl’s."
The boy, hearing Wen Xiao’ai’s comment, touched his head and smiled, "I don’t know, but I really like it."
"Hehe, Jun Moyan also styles my hair. He’s good at everything." Wen Xiao’ai said, lifting a strand of her hair and playing with it in her fingers.
"Tomorrow, I’ll have Jun Moyan style my hair just like yours."
The two sat on the bed, happily chatting away. Wen Xiao’ai kept talking about her past, animated and overjoyed.
She was naturally loquacious, and with a like-minded and adorable companion, her chatter went on endlessly, growing more and more enthusiastic.
The boy warmed up to Wen Xiao’ai gradually and became more open.
Listening to Wen Xiao’ai share her past, the boy felt envious and longing.
He didn’t know what kind of life he had lived before; if he also had someone to cherish him, love him, protect him, along with many other friends to accompany him.
"Sister, you’re truly fortunate to have so many people cherish you and so many friends."
"We’re friends now too, and my friends are your friends as well. Hey, why don’t you come back to the Demon Clan with me when I return? I can take you to the Fox Demon Clan; maybe you could find your family."
The boy shook his head, "I still want to find it before I leave."
"The thing you’re looking for might be in the Demon Clan."
"No, it’s nearby, I can feel it. It led me here, although I don’t know what it is exactly. But I’m certain it’s in the Human Realm." The boy said this, his emotions becoming agitated. For origınal chapters go to novᴇlfire.net
