Completely unsure how to handle the situation, Hua Manlou nervously turned and left after saying those words, leaving Tang Yu standing there awkwardly.
The next day, Hua Manlou did not appear in the garden at all; he seemed to have been outside all day.
Tang Yu became even more conflicted. How could she tell Hua Manlou that this matter was not over yet and would have to continue for a while longer?
I thought Hua Manlou wouldn't show up today, but he did come at the appointed time that evening.
"Miss Tang, are you alright?"
"It's alright, I thought you weren't coming."
After Hua Manlou appeared, Tang Yu walked out from the peach tree and sat down opposite him.
Upon hearing the sound, Hua Manlou's lips curled into a warm smile, and then he suddenly took out a jade hairpin.
"Do you like this jade hairpin? I think you haven't worn any jewelry since you took human form, and I don't know if it suits you."
Tang Yu began to struggle with her thoughts. Afraid that she was overthinking things, she made a suggestive remark.
"Do you want to give me a piece of jewelry, or do you want to put this jade hairpin in my hair yourself?"
After all, for the ancients, jade hairpins usually held special significance, signifying a commitment to each other.
However, it cannot be ruled out that the other party did not mean it that way, so Tang Yu asked in a rather tactful way.
Hua Manlou couldn't help but laugh instantly.
"I thought the girl had always been inside the peach tree and probably didn't know these human customs."
Tang Yu snorted at these words.
"Don't try to change the subject. What are you trying to do by giving me this jade hairpin? I don't want to misunderstand."
Upon hearing this, Hua Manlou's lips curled into a smile as warm as the spring sun.
"How can we become acquainted? By painting a hairpin with gold foil."
Is this a confession, a promise to grow old together?
Tang Yu was somewhat surprised, not expecting Hua Manlou to be so direct.
"Is it because of what happened last night? Actually, I offended you. You don't need to feel guilty or think about taking responsibility for me."
"I'm not human, after all, and I'm not bound by your rules and customs."
Hua Manlou smiled and reached out his hand, then accurately grasped Tang Yu's palm.
"I have known Miss Tang for three months now. Although I don't know what Miss Tang looks like, I have been very happy with the past three months."
I used to think it was friendship, the bond between confidants, but what happened last night just made me realize my own true feelings.
I'm not that naive to think a girl would care about something like that. I was just being greedy, hoping she would give me a chance..."
Tang Yu became a little nervous because of this confession.
"You are handsome and refined, with a gentle and kind personality. You are sincere and generous to others. As a friend, I like you very much."
From a lover's perspective, my feelings right now might not be entirely pure, because it's me who needs you, do you understand?
As for whether she likes someone with Hua Manlou's personality, Tang Yu does. It seems like her preferred type has always been pretty much the same.
But if she agreed to become lovers with the other party, Tang Yu felt that she wasn't so pure.
Chapter 7 Flower-Filled Pavilion 7
But after saying this, Hua Manlou suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
"You need me; this is an opportunity God has given me."
If in the time we spend together, I can't make you like me again after you've gotten rid of the reason that you're spiritually attached to me.
That was my failure, it has nothing to do with you.
Tang Yu felt instantly relieved after hearing these frank and easy-going words.
"You really don't mind?"
"Among millions of people in this world, it is already very difficult to meet by chance, and to have the opportunity to fall in love is a blessing earned through countless lifetimes."
If one is concerned with who loves more, how can such a person live a happy life with the one they love?
Many things are simply not worth worrying about.
These words touched Tang Yu; she was probably naturally unable to resist such a gentle and warm person.
"In that case, I'll give you a chance to let this jade hairpin go where it's meant to go."
These words made Hua Manlou laugh instantly. He stood up and walked behind Tang Yu, quickly finding Tang Yu's hair with both hands.
Then, Hua Manlou personally inserted the jade hairpin.
Then, Tang Yu asked Hua Manlou to sit down, and this time she sat on Hua Manlou's lap and laughed triumphantly.
"Then I have to tell you the truth: the spiritual energy I absorbed last night wasn't enough. You'll have to help me in the future."
"my pleasure."
Amused by Hua Manlou's candid attitude, Tang Yu didn't even kiss the other's eyes. Instead, she reached out and hooked her arms around the other's neck, then smiled and kissed the other's cheek.
"Have you ever had a crush on anyone before?"
"You are the only one."
These words made Tang Yu lower her head without hesitation and kiss her passionately.
Their scalding breaths instantly intertwined and entwined.
Warm lips lightly touched the corner of her lips, carrying a touch of tenderness and affection.
A sense of naivety tinged with ambiguity.
The surroundings were silent. The two were so close that their breaths mingled, and Hua Manlou couldn't help but hug the other tightly.
A rich fragrance of peach blossoms enveloped the two of them, and he couldn't resist kissing her deeply.
That once gentle and refined face now seems to have become ambiguous and hazy because of this.
After a long while, Hua Manlou finally stopped the passionate kiss.
His hands gently stroked Tang Yu's cheeks, then he lightly brushed her hair behind her ears.
Their foreheads touched, Hua Manlou's nose gently brushing against Tang Yu's, their warm breaths mingling together.
He tilted his head slightly, his lips gently landing on Tang Yu's earlobe, kissing it lightly with a slight tickling sensation, causing Tang Yu to tremble involuntarily.
The fragrance of peach blossoms grew stronger, and they embraced each other quietly, as if time had stopped flowing.
"How long will it take for me to transform into a human? I really want to take you home."
Upon hearing Hua Manlou's words, Tang Yu couldn't help but laugh.
"If you were to stay by my side every day, it might take a month."
"So, is there still something I haven't done today?"
Hua Manlou brought up the topic, and Tang Yu immediately doubled over with laughter.
She leaned against Hua Manlou and then bit him.
"Lower your head, I'm going to kiss your eyes."
Hua Manlou smiled gently, then bowed his head in response, both of them beaming with smiles.
A strong spiritual energy rushed towards them, and Tang Yu became completely and closely connected with the other party.
"Hua Manlou, your eyes are so beautiful. When they are filled with the starry sky, they will be incredibly beautiful!"
"I wish it were filled with you."
Chapter 8 Flower-Filled Pavilion 8
From then on, their relationship became that of lovers.
Then, Tang Yu started receiving food every day.
Hua Manlou would go out every day to buy all sorts of delicious food, sweet pastries, exquisite little gifts, and beautiful jewelry, and then bring them back to amuse Tang Yu.
"Actually, there's no need to give gifts every day. With so much jewelry, it feels like we could never use it all."
Hua Manlou, however, had other ideas.
“You are trapped here every day. Although you can endure the feeling of being restricted and deprived of your freedom, it pains me.”
Every night, only these little things can make you feel a little happier and freer. I want you to feel more comfortable and at ease.
Okay, Tang Yu is going to relax and enjoy it.
The longer the time passes, the longer it takes for Tang Yu to transform into a human.
Finally, a month later, Tang Yu completely broke free from the peach tree and officially transformed into a human.
On this day, Tang Yu was so excited that he hugged Hua Manlou and kissed him twice.
"I can finally treat your eyes."
Hua Manlou, however, subconsciously asked a question in return.
"Why don't we wait a little longer? I'm afraid you'll still be trapped inside the peach tree, and then you won't have any spiritual energy left."
This person is really not worried about his own eyes, but more worried about her condition.
“I still have that kind of judgment, and I am certain that I have gained my freedom.”
At this moment, Hua Manlou finally felt relieved.
"How should it be treated?"
Tang Yu couldn't help but reveal a sly smile.
"A fairy kisses her beloved, and all her ailments will disappear."
