My personal opinion on Gensokyo

As soon as he left the living room, the voice of love gently floated into Shang Yang's ears.

After a while, Shang Yang returned to the living room. The curtains were drawn tightly, covering one side of the transparent glass. Kaguya and the others had already taken off their clothes and were soaking in the hot spring in the courtyard. The girls' playful laughter came into the living room from the hot spring in the courtyard where pure white mist was rising.

Hearing the girls' playful laughter, the young man didn't dare to imagine what kind of beautiful scenery was in the hot spring in the courtyard, but just walked straight into the kitchen.

When he walked into the kitchen, he saw that Ai had neatly arranged various hot pot ingredients on a large plate. There were also two full sacks and a full cloth bag in the corner of the kitchen. According to Shang Yang's visual observation, the sacks should contain grain, and the cloth bag should contain vegetables and meat.

Seeing Shang Yang approaching him somewhat at a loss, Ai whispered a warning.

"Come with me down the mountain. Shang Yang will take these three bags. Do not put them in the causal mystery."

"Oh, good."

The relieved young man agreed immediately.

Now no matter what Ai says, you must do it.

While making up his mind, the young man easily picked up three bags of things, followed Ai out of the kitchen and left the living room.

After changing his shoes at the entrance, Ai pushed the door open and walked out, then he flew lightly, as if he was going to fly directly down the mountain.

Seeing the black-haired girl flying lightly into the night sky, the young man with gray and white hair immediately flew up to follow her.

Volume 3: Above the Moon Sea: Chapter 72: Her Love

Yoshinoyama, the area under the mountain.

Falling from the night sky where heavy snow was falling, the black-haired girl stood still, looked around and searched for something in the howling wind and snow.

Soon, the girl found an old wooden house not far ahead, which was dimly lit in the howling wind and snow.

The young man landed behind the girl with food, vegetables and meat in his arms. He looked in the direction the girl was looking and also saw the old wooden house with tiny lights shining in the snow.

Shang Yang thought about it and realized the purpose of Ai's coming, so he tilted his head and asked.

"Ai, is this the home of the old man and his wife who collected firewood and helped you and Jue before you met us?"

"Ah."

With a slight nod, Ai answered in the affirmative.

Seeing Ai's affirmation, Shang Yang, who understood Ai's thoughts, asked.

"What should we do? Send the food in directly, or..."

"Just put it outside the door," Ai replied softly, then raised her slender white hand and pointed at the door of the old wooden house. "Shang Yang, go put it there."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." After agreeing, the young man carefully carried the three bags of food and approached the old wooden house. He quietly placed the three bags of food next to the door and then carefully returned, taking care not to disturb the old couple in the house.

There is no need to worry that the shoe prints left on the snow will soon be buried by the heavy snow.

Shang Yang carefully returned to Ai, turned around, and looked at the old wooden house again with Ai. When Shang Yang approached just now, he clearly heard the crackling sound of burning firewood in the house. It seemed that there was no need to worry about keeping the elderly couple warm.

"Love, let's go back."

Shang Yang quietly asked Ai for her opinion.

"……Um."

After softly agreeing, Ai turned her pretty face to the side, and looked at Shang Yang with dark red pupils, who seemed to be worried about her.

The girl's dark red eyes were filled with inexplicable emotions, and she seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Finally, the black-haired girl opened her cherry lips and gently uttered four words.

"……take me Home."

After saying this incoherent sentence, the girl stood motionless on the thick snow, staring at the young man with her dark red pupils, as if waiting for something.

"……Uh?"

Hearing Ai's seemingly incomprehensible words, Shang Yang looked at the black-haired girl in front of him with confusion, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

...Wait, wait, that's how it is.

However, because he had been with Ai for more than fifty years, Shang Yang quickly understood the emotions that Ai wanted to express.

Approaching Ai, Shang Yang put his arms around Ai's soft waist and carefully picked her up.

Princess hug.

Love is so light that almost anyone can pick it up easily.

Shang Yang knew this a long time ago.

Seeing Shang Yang holding her up, Ai did not show any surprise, but a hint of relief flashed in her dark red pupils.

It seems that she also expects Shang Yang to do this.

Naturally hugging the young man's upper body, the girl repeated it softly again.

"take me Home."

"Well, love, hold on tight, don't let go."

Hearing the girl's emphatic repetition, the young man gently and softly warned her while carefully holding the frail girl in his arms.

Like an arrow shot from a bow, the young man rose from the ground covered with thick snow, drew a beautiful arc in the cold night with heavy snowflakes flying, and flew towards the depths of Mount Yoshino.

The gentle magic power covered himself and his love, blocking the invasion of the howling wind and snow.

Just like fifty years ago when the young man first took the girl to Tang State.

After a while, Shang Yang landed on the thick snow-covered ground with Ai in his arms, and landed in front of the door of the hot spring villa.

Carefully getting down from Shang Yang's arms, Ai took out the key and opened the door. She went into the house first, took off her shoes at the entrance, and walked up the wooden steps into the living room with her slender feet in black over-the-knee socks.

Seeing Ai walk into the living room, Shang Yang closed the door and followed her. As soon as he entered the living room, Shang Yang saw Kaguya, Shana, Jue and Lianlian had already changed into their favorite yukata and were sitting around the square table.

“…He actually returned safely.”

Seeing the young man with gray hair walking into the living room as if nothing had happened, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Moon City pouted.

"I thought Shang Yangjun would never come back. Love is so good to you."

...Princess, this is the first time you think the same way as me. I also feel so lucky to be able to return safely.

With such a guilty thought flashing through his mind, the young man with gray hair remained calm on the surface. He walked to the square table and sat on the same side with Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Moon City.

Her Royal Highness the Princess moved aside without any hesitation, allowing the young man to sit down naturally.

In order to celebrate the two sisters Jue and Lianlian coming to visit the hot spring resort, Shana having a real body, and Shang Yang completing the level leap, Ai prepared a hot pot with extremely rich ingredients for Shang Yang and the girls.

There is no need to say much about the meal process. It was the first time for Jue and Lianlian to eat hot pot, and they were both very excited.

After dinner, Jue looked at Ai thoughtfully, stood up, and took Lianlian and Shana to ask Kaguya to go with them to see the room upstairs.

Kaguya reacted instantly and immediately stood up and took them to see the room upstairs.

Before leaving, Shana turned around and looked at Shang Yang, her meaning was very clear.

...Leave it to you, Shang Yang.

Realizing what Shana meant, Shang Yang nodded slightly.

Thank you.

After the Gu Mingdi sisters, Shana, and Kaguya went upstairs, Ai and Shang Yang were left alone in the living room, sitting face to face in silence.

After a moment of silence, Ai stood up, opened the wooden door and walked out, and a soft voice floated over.

"Shangyang, go change your clothes and soak in the hot spring with me."

...Huh? (VII) ⑵③令4久崎珊私qu.n!

Hearing this, Shang Yang was stunned and watched Ai leave the living room.

Shang Yang rubbed his gray hair in confusion and stood up to go back to his room to change into a yukata.

Back in the room, Shang Yang quickly changed into his yukata while his mind was wandering.

After calming himself down, the young man stopped himself from thinking about it anymore. After changing into his bathrobe, he immediately went downstairs, opened the living room door and walked into the living room.

In the living room, Ai had already changed into a pure white bathrobe and was sitting in the living room waiting for Shang Yang.

Seeing Shang Yang, who had also changed into a white yukata, enter the living room, Ai nodded slightly, stood up, opened the glass door and walked out.

The naked white jade feet stepped lightly on the thick snow in the courtyard. The black-haired girl left a series of delicate and small jade foot prints on the snow and walked towards the steaming hot spring.

Seeing the girl walking towards the hot spring in the courtyard, the young man also walked into the courtyard somewhat at a loss.

puff.

With the crisp sound of splashing water, Ai jumped into the warm hot spring water with rising white mist. She turned sideways, and her dark red pupils were particularly obvious in the hazy white mist formed by the heat.

"Shangyang, come together."

Ai called softly, and although her tone was no different from usual, if one listened carefully, one could easily hear a hint of shyness in her voice.

...What am I struggling with?

Giving up his confusion, the young man went into the hot spring water.

I have to say that taking a bath in the cold early spring season is a truly supreme enjoyment, especially when it comes to bathing in a natural hot spring.

Although he did not have the same relaxed feeling that most humans would have after a tiring day, Shang Yang also felt unusually relaxed.

Suddenly, a soft, white hand reached out, gently held Shang Yang's hand, and slowly pulled Shang Yang into the depths of the hot spring.

This hot spring has a radius of dozens of meters. The bottom of the spring is very flat, but there are obvious changes in height. The water depth is waist-deep when entering, and reaches nearly the neck at the deepest point.

Shang Yang let Ai La' Er ０鸸鸸衣③林巴2月*ripples pull him towards the deeper water.

Halfway through the drift, when the hot spring water had already reached Shang Yang's chest, Ai suddenly let go of Shang Yang's hand, and turned her back to Shang Yang alone. Her long black hair like a waterfall floated on the water, like scattered seaweed.

"……like?"

The young man called out to the girl softly.

The girl ignored him and still had her back to him.

However, Shang Yang noticed that Ai's body was trembling slightly.

He quickly reached out and grabbed Ai's shoulders.

...He was shaking indeed.

Feeling Ai's slight trembling, Shang Yang hurriedly reached out and pulled Ai's body over.

Ai did not resist, and when Shang Yang pulled Ai over, he saw it immediately.

There were two very obvious tear marks at the corners of Ai's eyes, and her beautiful dark red eyes seemed to be covered with mist.

"Love, are you crying?"

After a brief silence, the young man asked in a low voice.

"……Um."

Nodding gently, love did not deny.

After a short silence, the black-haired girl opened her cherry lips again.

This time, the voice of love was filled with loneliness and helplessness.

Yi Mio Qi] Private ⑦ (IV) Wu Liu Yue Yi "...Can you hug me?"

Without hesitation, the young man immediately held the girl in his arms.

Love breathed in contentment as she felt the warmth in her beloved's embrace.

The girl extended her arms and hugged the young man as well.

After quietly enjoying the warmth brought by the embrace of his beloved for a long time, he seemed to feel more at ease with love and spoke softly.

"Explain the reason to me."

Hearing this, Shang Yang understood that Ai was the one who wanted to tell her. Why did he hide from her something as important and dangerous as the level leap?

The young man hugged the girl in his arms even tighter.

“…If you tell me, you’ll worry; if you worry, I’ll worry about you.”

"I can't get anything done when I'm worried about you."

After hearing these extremely frank words, Ai was silent for a while, and then quietly pointed out a fact.
