Chapter 256 Love Affair [9] Tokens of Love
The Mutian Pavilion operates day and night, so by the time Shui Qingli finally recovered from this intense and exhilarating battle, she had long lost track of what year it was.
The shackles of immortal power had disappeared, and the sapphire chain on his wrist had also vanished. However, Yue Yuanming's arm was still firmly around his waist, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Of course, after seeing the appalling marks on her body, Shui Qingli was still momentarily stunned.
What exactly has he been doing all this time? How come she has absolutely no resistance to his excessive demands?
Also, is Yue Yuanming born in the Year of the Dog? Look at what they've done to him, how is he supposed to face anyone now?
"Awake? Still feeling unwell?" Yue Yuanming hadn't fallen asleep at all. As a fairy, he wouldn't feel tired even if he didn't sleep. He might as well spend his time looking at the fairy he had finally managed to win over.
Therefore, Yue Yuanming noticed as soon as Shui Qingli regained consciousness.
"Was it just a spur-of-the-moment decision?" Surprisingly, Shui Qingli didn't react much, but instead asked a question that made Yue Yuanming pause slightly.
Even though her consciousness was still a little hazy, Shui Qingli didn't want to just sink into this hazy state. Some things always need to be answered before she could let it go.
"No." Yue Yuanming looked at Shui Qingli's unprecedented seriousness and could only helplessly reveal his true thoughts: "Qingli, I've wanted this day for a long time..."
"From the moment I first saw you, I wanted to possess you and make you belong only to me."
Yue Yuanming made no attempt to hide his thoughts; he knew that honesty was essential if the relationship was to continue developing.
If Shui Qingli can accept his obsession and possessiveness, then all will be well. If not... he always has a way to soften her heart and make her compromise.
Anyway, he knows him well enough, and he can't escape his control no matter what.
Upon hearing Yue Yuanming's words, Shui Qingli was slightly surprised. He really hadn't expected that Yue Yuanming had approached him with such a purpose from the very beginning.
It's likely that Yue Yuanming felt insecure during his absence – after all, aside from the time they spent sleeping at the bottom of the sea, they hadn't really been apart much.
"Then, what are your feelings for me?" Yue Yuanming stared intently at Shui Qingli, desperately needing an answer to this question.
"I don't know either..." Shui Qingli dared not meet Yue Yuanming's burning gaze, and her answer was somewhat vague.
Yue Yuanming's sincerity left Shui Qingli momentarily at a loss, and she couldn't quite process such an unimaginable thing for a while.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that he doesn't hate this matter, otherwise even if he risked his life, he wouldn't have let Yue Yuanming succeed like this.
Seeing Shui Qingli's blank expression, Yue Yuanming felt like teasing her: "Qingli, do you not like it? But judging from your behavior these past few days... you really are just saying one thing and meaning another."
Upon hearing this, Shui Qingli glared fiercely at Yue Yuanming, then quickly pushed him away and hid herself under the covers.
But her face, hidden under the blanket, quickly flushed red.
Seeing that Shui Qingli was so embarrassed that he didn't even want to look at him, Yue Yuanming stopped teasing him. He grabbed Shui Qingli's left hand under the covers and solemnly slipped a ring onto his ring finger.
It was a jet-black ring with a pure white crescent moon carved from some unknown material. The moon seemed to have faint, flowing water patterns carved on it, and it emitted a faint, eerie black light, making it look very mysterious.
"What is this?" Shui Qingli looked at the ring with a puzzled expression. He could feel the immortal power contained within the ring, which was why he wanted Yue Yuanming to give him an explanation.
"Consider it a gift for you." Yue Yuanming's expression was gentle: "With it, if you encounter any danger, I can get there immediately."
"Promise me you'll always wear it."
“Okay.” Shui Qingli nodded solemnly.
……
From that day on, their relationship officially embarked on a new path, and this ring became their token of love.
Fairies did not have the elaborate wedding ceremonies invented by later humans, nor did they often engage in romantic relationships.
For them, establishing a relationship is just a formality; as long as there is love in their hearts, the form is not that important.
Of course, we don't have that kind of mindset of just going through the motions anymore.
As for the return gift... Shui Qingli thought about it for a long time before she personally crafted a blue teardrop ring.
