The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Hua Ye stood up with shining eyes, walked around his body, and looked at him carefully from head to toe.

"Ye'er, don't you think it's not worth saving me?" Xu Zhi looked at her with a hint of doubt, a hint of confusion on his face.

"Master, of course I should save you! In my previous life, if it weren't for the secret manuals you left behind, I'm afraid this life wouldn't have even begun..."

Hua Ye stood beside him, gently cupped his cheeks with his hands, turned his head, then lifted his face so that he could look directly into his apricot-red eyes.

She continued seriously, "No one is born to sacrifice their life for the sake of the people of the world. Master, please don't do this again..."

As she spoke of this, her eyes gradually became moist and even a little red. She didn't know whether it was because she felt sorry for him or because she saw her own shadow in him.

"Yer, no one has ever persuaded me like this. They always ask me to sacrifice myself to seal all the demons in this world."

Xuzhi's originally stern face was gently pinched by her, and his mouth couldn't help but pout.

He mumbled something, but a warm ripple appeared in his cold eyes.

"Why don't they go themselves? They're living a carefree life, and it's them who should be pacifying this chaotic world! Master has been wise throughout his life, and it's time for them to take their turn. We just need to live well."

Hua Ye became more and more excited as he spoke, even drooling. His face was full of indignation, as if he wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction and resentment in his heart.

Her eyes were firm and sharp, as if she was full of contempt and disdain for those people's behavior.

"Girl, could you please pay a little attention to your image? Your saliva is splashing on my face!"

Xuzhi smiled slightly at her increasingly excited expression, raised his hands, gently grasped her wrists, pulled her hands down, and then pulled them hard, encircling her whole body into his open arms.

Hua Ye sat on his lap, covered his mouth with his hands, and laughed out loud: "Sorry, I was really too excited!"

"Yer, your temperament seems to be a little unpredictable..."

Xuzhi looked down at her ears which had turned red with indignation, and listened to her laughter which was as clear and sweet as a silver bell, and his mood became more and more cheerful.

"Master, could you please stop referring to yourself as 'this Lord'? It sounds weird."

Hua Ye suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Xu Zhi, with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Then Ye'er, don't call me Master..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Hua Ye's eyes become sharp, as if he wanted to see through his body.

His heart tightened, and he quickly changed his words: "Don't call me Master, we have already had countless physical intimacy..."

When Hua Ye heard his words, a slight blush appeared on his face, but he immediately regained his composure.

She buried her head in the crook of his neck, bit it gently, and then asked with a hint of coquettishness, "Then how should I call you?"

Xuzhi was startled by her sudden action and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

However, he tried hard to control his inner impulse and kept his voice as calm as possible: "You can call me whatever you want, but you can't call me Master anymore!"

"The emptiness... the emptiness... the emptiness..."

Hua Ye murmured softly, as if trying various names. However, none of them satisfied her.

Her eyes gradually became confused, as if she was lost in endless thoughts.

In the end, she gave up on finding a suitable name and chose the simplest and most familiar one: "I'd rather call him Master. It's easier to pronounce!"

After she said that, she stood up and jumped off Xuzhi's body, walking towards the bedroom door.

The sun outside is still shining brightly, and the sound of birdsong and the fragrance of flowers fill the air.

Among the flowers, several colorful butterflies with shining scales are dancing gracefully, as if adding a touch of brilliant color to this beautiful scene.

However, Xu Zhi's mood was not as relaxed and happy as the outside world. He looked at Hua Ye's departing back, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

In what capacity will this woman, who has a special relationship with him, accompany him in facing the strange changes that will occur later?

Perhaps only time can give the answer to all this...
