Chapter 1377: Chapter 137: Father and Daughter Reunion_5
Hearing Zhuo Yun’s touching voice, Yan Shi’s eyes became misty, as if he had returned to the beautiful times with his departed wife, Yun Er. He felt as if Yun Er was watching over him, continuously encouraging him. The Zhuo Yun before him seemed like another Yun Er, her shy demeanor constantly stimulating Yan Shi’s nerves. Yan Shi trembled all over, his hands uncontrollably and slowly drew Zhuo Yun into his embrace. Zhuo Yun’s body also trembled, her consciousness somewhat blurred; her vision cloudy, she put up no resistance, allowing Yan Shi to hold her in his arms before everyone. The warmth immediately spread throughout Zhuo Yun’s body – she was intoxicated, basking in the warm comfort of Yan Shi’s chest. At that moment, she could no longer care about anything else, only wanting to silently feel Yan Shi’s tenderness. Even with twenty subordinates behind her staring in astonishment, it no longer mattered; from the time she was captured until now, she felt secure for the first time, surrounded by such comfort and warmth! Yan Shi held Zhuo Yun’s slightly cold delicate body, a wave of contentment filled his heart, his once-empty soul, after Yun Er’s death, finally felt fulfilled. The two clung tightly to one another before everyone, oblivious to their surroundings.
Ah Dai watched Yan Shi and Zhuo Yun, a faint smile appearing on his face, glad that big brother Yan Shi finally had someone to rely on emotionally. The twenty elves behind Zhuo Yun were staring agape; Zhuo Yun was also a beauty in the Elf Clan, with many pursuers. They could hardly believe that the usually distant Elf Envoy would allow a human to embrace her like this. After a long moment, it was Audi, the senior Elf Envoy, who first recovered from the awkwardness, coughing a few times to break the silence.
Zhuo Yun snapped out of it and struggled out of Yan Shi’s embrace. She gave Yan Shi a resentful look, her face blushing, and bit her lower lip, whispering in a volume only Yan Shi could hear, "Come find me later." Without waiting to report to Audi on the reconnaissance, she flew up and left in shyness. Yan Shi watched Zhuo Yun’s departing figure with a sense of loss, feeling a sweetness in his heart. Seeing Zhuo Yun again, all his worries disappeared; he only wanted to be forever with the one he loved. Ah Dai floated to Yan Shi’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly, "Big brother, you’re amazing. Pursue your happiness boldly." Yan Shi’s face turned red, but he was speechless. He just nodded vigorously, chasing after Zhuo Yun’s figure. With his skills, he only needed to use the buoyancy from Elf Lake to easily catch up to Zhuo Yun, who was not flying fast. The two of them entered the heart of the Elf City, one after another.
Zhuo Yun’s heart fluttered like a small deer. When she reached her tree house, she hesitated for a moment, turned her head to look at Yan Shi catching up, and then floated inside, but did not close the door.
Yan Shi followed joyfully, took a deep breath to calm his nerves, and gently knocked on the door, asking softly, "Zhuo, Zhuo Yun, may I come in?"
Zhuo Yun’s bashful voice responded, "Aren’t you already up here?"
Yan Shi was delighted by her words, clearly sensing a trace of affection, and quickly stepped into the tree house.
The Elf Tree House was small, particularly since Zhuo Yun lived alone, with space for only two single beds side by side. Yan Shi, being tall, made the already small space feel even smaller.
Zhuo Yun sat on the bed, smiling at Yan Shi who could only stoop to stand, she shifted slightly to the side, freeing up more than half of the bed, and said softly, "My place is small, please sit down."
