793 Ice Mirror Lake
Huanhuan stroked her chin and thought about it seriously. Since this matter concerned someone else’s marriage, she finally decided to help him.
“I’ll help you clear the air later.”
The weight on his heart was finally lifted. Ling Si heaved a sigh of relief and muttered softly, “At least you have some conscience.”
Huanhuan raised her voice. “What did you say?”
“N-Nothing,” Ling Si quickly denied. “I came to look for you about this. I’ve said everything I need to say now. I’m going back.”
Huanhuan asked coldly, “You just said that you were just passing by. Why are you suddenly saying that you came here to look for me?”
Ling Si, who had been caught, couldn’t answer. He was even more embarrassed.
He flew into a rage out of humiliation and roared angrily, “Why do you care?!”
Clement immediately assumed a posture that was ready to attack at any moment.
Ling Si was so frightened that he immediately shut up and turned to leave.
He heard Huanhuan’s voice behind him.
“Put your clothes on before you leave!”
Ling Si turned to glare at her. “Do you think I’ll wear my clothes just because you want me to? Who do you think you are?!”
Huanhuan couldn’t stop smiling. “If you leave me naked and others see you, they’ll definitely think that something can’t be said is going on between you and me!”
“I-I…” Ling Si wanted to argue, but he couldn’t say anything reasonable. His handsome face turned red.
Huanhuan took out a long cotton robe from her space and threw it to Ling Si.
“Hurry up and put it on. I don’t want all the beasts in the valley to know about you leaving naked after meeting me.”
Ling Si picked up the robe and shouted as he put them on, “I won’t be grateful!”
Huanhuan said slowly, “I don’t expect you to be grateful to me.”
That was Bai Di’s robe. It was a little too big for Ling Si. He rolled up his sleeves twice and touched the material of the clothes. He couldn’t help but mutter, “The material is quite good…”
“Of course. This material is a specialty of our Rock City. It’s soft and comfortable. If you like it, I can sell you some later. The price is negotiable~”
Ling Si nodded reservedly. “I’ll think about it.”
His facial features were very exquisite and beautiful. He was tall and slender, and he had a noble aura unique to unicorns. If one ignored his pitiful appearance when he was bullied by Huanhuan and the others, he could be considered an elegant young master.
Ling Si adjusted his collar and walked away.
Huanhuan waved her arms. “Come and play often in the future~”
Ling Si didn’t stop walking. He didn’t want to see her and her youngest son again in his life! That pair of mother and son were demons!
Not long after Ling Si left, Bai Di returned with a bamboo basket.
The basket was filled with fresh fruits.
Bai Di had tried all these fruits. He had already picked out the sour and unpleasant ones and thrown them away. The remaining fruits were the ones that tasted good.
Huanhuan grabbed a fruit that was still dripping with dew and took a bite. It was especially sweet and had an indescribably unique fragrance.
As she ate, she said, “Delicious!”
Bai Di smiled gently. “I’m glad you like it.”
After eating and drinking her fill, Huanhuan lay in Bai Di’s arms to take an afternoon nap.
In the afternoon, Miaomiao came to play with Huanhuan.
“It’s rare for you to be here. Shall I take you to the valley to play?”
Huanhuan turned to Bai Di.
Bai Di was actually reluctant to let her out of his sight, but he could see the desire to play in her eyes, so he had to suppress the restless possessiveness in him. He smiled and nodded. “Go ahead.”
Huanhuan was very happy. She hugged his arm. “Why don’t you come with us?”
The two females were going out to play together. If he, a male beast, guarded them, it would make them uncomfortable. Besides, he had other things to do.
Bai Di said, “I’m a little tired. I don’t want to run around.”
“Oh.” Huanhuan was a little disappointed. “Then rest well. I’ll be back with you after I’m done playing.”
“Be careful on the way. Come back early.”
Huanhuan waved her arm at him, then ran out of the cave hand in hand with Miaomiao.
The valley was huge, and the scenery was beautiful.
Miaomiao first brought Huanhuan to look at the largest sea of flowers in the valley. The two of them braided wreaths and put them on their heads. Then, they ran to the lake while laughing.
“This is Ice Mirror Lake.” Miaomiao used the lake as a mirror and tidied her hair in front of it. “Legend has it that this lake was a mirror made of ice a long time ago. Through it, we can see our previous lives. Later, God gave it to our ancestors, so it became the Ice Mirror Lake we see now.”
The legend of mirrors turning into lakes was almost zero in authenticity.
However, this lake was quite beautiful. The flat and smooth image refracted a faint golden light, making it look extremely holy and dreamy.
Huanhuan squatted by the lake and looked down.
Suddenly, she saw something flash under the lake.
Her eyes widened. “What is that?”
Miaomiao turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”
“I saw something swimming under the lake just now. Is it a fish?”
Miaomiao immediately denied it. “There are no fish in Ice Mirror Lake.”
“What could that be, then?”
Miaomiao also leaned over and stared at the lake with her for a long time.
She saw nothing.
Miaomiao was puzzled. “Did you see wrongly just now?”
“Okay, maybe I was just seeing things.”
Miaomiao continued to tidy her braids. Huanhuan couldn’t help but stare at the lake again.
This time, she found her reflection in the lake flash.
This scene was the same as what she had just seen. It seemed that she had seen her reflection flash just now and mistakenly thought that there was something underwater.
But why did her reflection suddenly flash for no reason?
Huanhuan became even more puzzled.
Her eyes widened, and she stared at her reflection without blinking.
The reflection flickered faster and faster, a little like the screen of an old television when the frequency jumped. The reflection flickered, then gradually began to distort into a colorful vortex…
Huanhuan’s eyes went blurry.
What the hell was going on?
Eventually, she saw leaves in the lake’s reflection.
Branches gradually grew beside the leaves, and the branches connected to thicker trunks. There were more and more leaves, and between the layers, small white flowers bloomed.
Huanhuan couldn’t help but freeze.
It was the Divine Wood!
But why did she see the Divine Wood on the lake?
Miaomiao noticed her abnormality and leaned over to ask, “What are you looking at? Why are you so focused?”
Huanhuan pointed to the reflection in the lake. “Why is there a tree on the lake?”
Miaomiao looked in the direction she was pointing.
The lake was clear, and the sun was shining. Not even a leaf could be seen, let alone a tree.
“There’s nothing on the lake. Are you seeing things again?”
