Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

When she saw someone, she hurriedly let go and kept repeating this.

Of course, Lin Jinnian did not stop her slightly childish behavior because it was really interesting.

He has never seen Ying like this before.

You know, 500 years ago it was difficult for him to even touch Ying's hand.

Even if she touches it without paying attention, she will be forcibly captured by Ying and forced to duel and spar.

So now he is naturally happy to see Ying do these things.

And this subtle state lasted until the two returned to the castle tower.

At this time, Ying's little hand was already warm from being covered.

She bid farewell to Lin Jinnian and returned to the cold throne. However, she did not immediately enter the Pure Land. Instead, she looked at her hands in a daze... and then put her hands on her face.

Feeling the lingering warmth that hasn't dissipated yet.

If she were 500 years ago, she would never behave like this.

But now things are different.

500 years have passed, we have experienced the death of our relatives and the death of our friends. The images are now very different from before.

She is no longer naive, no longer childish.

She clearly knew that she was no longer the sister that Youzhen protected.

At the same time, constant loss makes Ying learn to cherish.

In the past time, she gradually realized the value of Lin Jinnian's heart, which may be a will that can span the long river of time.

But when there was no one who took her shopping, accompanied her to practice martial arts, and often played tricks on her... Yingzhen finally understood how important Lin Jinnian was to him.

But by then it was too late, there were not many people left around her.

So when Lin Jinnian appeared in Teyvat again, Ying decided not to shrink back and to face this feeling head-on.

Hence the various attempts now being made.

However, these are still too difficult for a girl who has never been in love.

She didn't know what to do at all, and her way of expressing herself was inevitably a bit clumsy.

But even so, she is still working hard to practice her inner emotions...

Fortunately, Lin Jinnian could always see her thoughts and gave her enough time.

I believe that one day, she will be able to successfully express her feelings that are ready to come out.

……

Chapter 197

It was already evening by the time Lin Jinnian returned to Narukami Taisha Shrine.

He pushed open the door and saw Yae Shenzi who was cleaning up the room.

So he walked next to her and helped.

"How's it going? Are you happy today?" Yae Shenzi asked without raising his head.

"Of course, but I should also ask you, are you happy to see Ying today?"

"Hmm~ It's okay, that's all."

Although she was so happy that her fox tail almost popped out, the arrogant Yae Kamiko would not admit it easily.

Lin Jinnian was very familiar with her attitude. Knowing that her arrogant nature was hard to change, he smiled and said nothing.

When Yae Shenzi saw Lin Jinnian taking the initiative to help him clean up his room, he simply stopped what he was doing and went back to bed.

When Lin Jinnian asked what he wanted to eat for dinner, Yae Kamiko originally wanted to say fox udon.

But for some reason, this was what she blurted out.

"Three-color dumpling."

"..."

Lin Jinnian almost doubted whether the fox in front of him had been taken away by the shadow.

"You want to eat the three-colored dumplings?"

Are you afraid that you were infected by the shadow?

Only then did Yae Shenzi realize his gaffe and immediately changed his tune.

"Hmm... let's eat fox udon."

"Do you want the three-color dumplings?"

She rolled her eyes at Lin Jinnian, but still did not refuse.

"It's good as an after-dinner snack."

Ying likes this thing so much... just think of it as a taste.

……

……

At night, Lin Jinnian slept with Yae Shenzi in his arms as usual.

But suddenly his nose felt itchy, as if something furry was dangling on his face.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw a fox tail dangling restlessly in the darkness.

At the same time, he also found that Yae Shenzi's sleeping posture was very restless, with his arms tightly hugging him, and his whole body was almost curled up into a ball.

This strange scene immediately aroused his alertness, and he couldn't help but get closer, wanting to see what Yae Shenzi was doing.

However, Yae Kamiko lowered her head, almost burying her head in her chest, and the surrounding light was dim, so it was difficult to see the expression on her face clearly.

Lin Jinnian had to stand up slightly to see her profile.

Yae Shenzi looked in pain, his brows were furrowed, and there was a lot of cold sweat on his forehead, as if he had had a bad dream.

And with her rapid breathing, her body even trembled slightly.

So Lin Jinnian took the initiative to lean in and hug her. Even though Yae Shenzi was still moving around, he didn't let go.

Although Yaegamiko's body movements gradually decreased, she still muttered words such as "Don't go", and even shed tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Son of God..."

"Sleep, you'll be fine."

"I'm still here."

Lin Jinnian whispered comfort in her ear and patted her back, trying to calm her down.

After some efforts, Yae Shenzi finally opened his eyes.

The moment she saw Lin Jinnian, a glimmer of clarity flashed in those chaotic eyes.

The next second she hugged Lin Jinnian tightly without hesitation, as if she was afraid that he would slip away, she hugged him very tightly.

"Lin Jinnian..."

Everything Yae Shenzi did seemed to be to confirm that Lin Jinnian was still by his side and had not disappeared.

The real feeling and temperature coming from her body were not deceiving, so she closed her eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.

Lin Jinnian hugged her and remained silent.

Her appearance is really distressing...

……

When he woke up in the morning, Lin Jinnian found that his arms were empty, and the Yao Shenzi had gone somewhere.

When he was about to stand up, he felt something strange coming from his neck.

It seemed like there was something cushioning behind it, something soft and warm.

Lin Jinnian was about to raise his head, but a pair of hands from nowhere pushed him back.

The familiar voice of Yae Kamiko came from above.

"Awake?"

Only then did he realize that he was being pillowed on his knees.

"Son of God..."

He wanted to ask about what happened last night, but Yae Kamiko pressed his lips with slender white fingers.

"Shh..."

She looked at Lin Jinnian with a smile in her eyes, as if all her emotions were contained in those eyes.

For some reason, Lin Jinnian seemed to think her eyes were particularly gentle today.

"I had a dream yesterday."

After all, it was Yae Shenzi who took the initiative to speak.

"I dreamed about something that happened a long time ago..."

……

After Lin Jinnian picked up the little fox from the snow, he took it with him wherever he went, and his love for it was hard to conceal.

In spring, Lin Jinnian would take it to explore the mountains and forests, take it to catch birds and animals, play by the flowing streams, and go on spring outings.

In the winter, I would play with it in the snow, watching it take a few steps back to gather strength, then plunge into the snow, and laugh heartily at the sight of its short feet constantly flapping.

Finally, when the little fox is tired of struggling, he goes forward and pulls it out. After all, who can refuse a pink carrot?

When the little fox has finished playing and its hair is stained with dust, Lin Jinnian will take it to take a bath.

Although it has always resisted, scratching and scratching every time, it refused to get into the bathtub no matter what. For this reason, it often bit Lin Jinnian.

But every time its resistance ended in failure. Who made it just a little fox? How could it be Lin Jinnian's opponent?

For Lin Jinnian, washing it when it is dirty is impossible to negotiate.

After all, only by washing it clean can he suck the fox better, dare to rub its tail with his face, and sleep with peace of mind while holding it at night.

Although sometimes when you wake up in the morning, the little fox's tail will occasionally be stained with a lot of saliva, which adds a lot of trouble to it, but what can be done?

Who thought it was Lin Jinnian who picked it up? The price was considered as rent.

When he was bored, Lin Jinnian would take a nap under a cherry blossom tree.

The sunshine and breeze there are very good, making it an excellent place to take a nap.

At this time, the little fox would run over and sleep in his arms as he should, very arrogantly.

He couldn't monopolize such a good place, or so he thought.

So it lay quietly in Lin Jinnian's arms, accepting his touch.

Lin Jinnian naturally couldn't put it down.

The little fox's pink fur is fluffy and warm. When it is fluffed down, it will also make a purring sound.

Sometimes even if it makes some very intimate moves, it won't resist.

This cherry blossom tree is a place that belongs to them alone.

Shinwakage, Foxsai Palace, Gogo Chiyo and others generally won't disturb him.

Unconsciously this became a habit.

Every day during nap time after lunch, one person and one fox would come here tacitly to enjoy their own moment.

Sometimes the little fox arrives first, and it will huddle up and cover its body with its fluffy tail, waiting for Lin Jinnian to hold it in his arms and sleep together...

Sometimes Lin Jinnian would arrive first, and he would lean under the tree to leave a place for the little fox.

So when the little fox walked under the warm sunshine and came to the familiar tree, and saw the place specially reserved for him in Lin Jinnian's arms...

It will all feel joy.
