Chapter 784

The bustle in the entertainment room hasn't died down yet, but the aroma is already wafting from the kitchen.

"There are many people today, so we have to cook more." Ji Zi looked at the carrots in the pot that were gradually softening and said with a smile, "Clara likes sweet food, so we have to keep half of it and put less spices. Cerydela seems to have a light taste, but Tibao seems to be able to eat spicy food..."

At the same time, Lin Yu had just walked out of the entertainment room, with Silver Wolf's roar "If you two continue to cheat me, I'll unplug the network cable" still lingering in his ears, and he ran into Xiadie who was standing at the end of the corridor.

Seeing Lin Yu coming out, his fingertips tightened slightly.

"Lin Yu...long time no see," Xiadie's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing something, "I didn't get a word in because there were too many people around just now."

"It's okay," Lin Yu took two steps closer and noticed the faint fatigue in her eyes, "Are you okay?"

Xiadie raised her head, looked into his eyes, and said softly, "I miss you."

The three words fell in the air like feathers, making Lin Yu think he had heard it wrong. He was stunned for a moment before he realized that Xiadie's cheeks were flushed.

"I..." Lin Yu was about to speak, but saw Xiadie quickly lowered her head, took a half step back, and spoke more softly, "I mean... everyone misses you very much. When you were on the train, I always felt like something was missing on Omphalos."

"What's missing?" Lin Yu took a half step forward, his eyes falling on her trembling eyelashes.

"Missing me?" He deliberately lowered his voice, with a mischievous smile, leaned closer, and pushed Xiadie to the corner of the corridor step by step.

The slightly cool touch of the wall made Xiadie subconsciously shrink her shoulders. When she looked up, the tip of her nose almost hit Lin Yu's chin, and even his breathing was clearly audible.

Xiadie's face instantly turned red as if blood was dripping out, her eyes widened, and she tried to hide backwards in a panic, but found that her back was against the wall and she had nowhere to retreat.

"I..I'm not..." She was tongue-tied, "It's your voice that's missing."

"My voice? Why is my voice missing?" Lin Yu asked.

"No..that's not what I meant..."

"I just feel that your voice... makes me feel safe..."

"Sense of security...what?" Lin Yu stared into her eyes, his heart seemed to be gently hit by something, and his thoughts drifted back to the past.

After seizing power, Xiadie told everyone in Omphalos her childhood story.

She was still a child at that time, but she was burdened with "death". She could not touch anything with life. Flowers and plants would wither at her fingertips, and even small animals would tremble if she got close to them.

The children avoided her, the adults looked at her with awe and fear, and in the whole village, only the priestess was willing to "take care" of her.

But he tied her with a thick hemp rope and dragged her to the gloomy church.

"Your hands can bring relief." The priestess grabbed the wooden stick with her skinny hands, tapped her palms, and asked her to touch the patients who were tortured by illness and were only left with one breath.

She was so small, and looking at those painful eyes, she was trembling with fear, but she was pulled by the rope and had to stretch out her hand.

The breath of death overflowed from her fingertips, the patient's pain would dissipate, but her tears could not stop flowing.

She didn't understand why her touch couldn't bring warmth, but only an end.

In those days, her world consisted only of the marks of hemp rope, the musty smell of the church, and the patient's final, faint sigh.

She seemed to be locked in a glass case. She could see the hustle and bustle outside but could not touch it, and rarely heard even a gentle word.

Lin Yu's eyes softened, and he gently raised his hand and rested it on her cheek.

"so."

"My voice can remind you of something different?"

"Yeah." She finally nodded, "Your voice... doesn't remind me of those cold things."

"Ha, just tell me if you miss me." Lin Yu suddenly laughed, and while she was stunned, he stretched out his hand through her knees, gently picked her up sideways, and deliberately turned her around.

"Lin..Yu!" Xiadie screamed in fright and subconsciously hugged his neck with her cheek against his chest.

This time, she didn't have to dodge deliberately. Her fingertips could firmly grasp his collar and feel the warm body under the fabric.

The sound of her heartbeat coming from her chest was like a drum beating against her heart, but it made her feel inexplicably at ease.

When Lin Yu stopped holding her, he ran into Clara coming out of the kitchen. The little girl opened her eyes wide, then covered her mouth and laughed secretly, then ran away on tiptoe.

Xiadie's face instantly turned red, and she gently punched his shoulder in his arms, "Put me down..."

"What's wrong? You don't want others to know?"

"Are you afraid that Aglaya and the others will tease you?"

Xiadie was stunned for a moment, then shook her head gently, "Aglaiya... knows about your relationship with me,"

"She doesn't seem to want to expose..."

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows, thinking of Aglaya's character, he was not surprised.

"Even Tibao, Aglaya didn't tell her."

"Last time I secretly told Aglaya that I missed you, and she just said, 'Just tell him when we meet.'"

"She understands you quite well then."

Xiadie shrank into his arms, her voice muffled, "Actually... I don't know what this relationship is, I just feel relieved when I see you."

"What kind of relationship is that?" Lin Yu looked down at her eyes and said seriously, "I consider you the person that I, Lin Yu, hold in my heart. Is that clear enough?"

Xiadie raised her head, her cheeks became even hotter, but she didn't avoid his gaze anymore, she just said "hmm" softly.

Lin Yu was about to say something else when he was suddenly interrupted by a loud horn.

"Come, come, come! It's time to eat~" Sanyueqi took out a pink trumpet from somewhere and walked around the car holding it.

"If you don't come, Cerydela will punish you according to the law of 'latecomers must wash dishes for three days'!"

Cerydella was coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of salad. Hearing this, she glanced coldly at March Seven.

"Article 110 of the law prohibits the use of high-decibel devices in public areas to disturb others."

The noise instantly filled the entire carriage.

Lin Yu smiled and took Xiadie's hand. When their fingertips touched, they both subconsciously tightened their grip.

"Let's go and have dinner." He pulled her towards the dining table. When they passed by Clara, the little girl secretly smiled at them.

The dining table was already full of people. Cerydela was pulled by Clara to sit at the main seat, and was helplessly listening to the little girl talking about Swarovski's new functions.

Lin Yu pushed Xiadie into the seat next to him, and as soon as he sat down, San Yueqi stuffed a bowl of carrot soup into his mouth.

"This is the meal made by Sister Ji Zi! How about trying her cooking?" said March 7.

Lin Yu looked down at the orange-red carrots in the bowl. They were stewed until they were soft and translucent, with icing sugar crumbs floating on the soup, which smelled sweet.

He scooped a spoonful and brought it to his mouth. Just as he was about to taste it, he saw Xiadie holding the bowl and sipping it in small sips.

He's so careful when eating, so cute.

"How is it?" Sanyueqi moved closer, as if waiting for some important evaluation.

"Amazing!" Lin Yu swallowed the soup in his mouth and smacked his lips exaggeratedly. "It would be a pity if Ji Zi didn't open a restaurant with her cooking skills."

Ji Zi caught a glimpse of March Seven's little movements, then looked at the dishes "visiting" back and forth in Lin Yu and Xia Die's bowls, and couldn't help but smile and shook her head.

At this time, Dela raised her hand and tapped the back of Saifei'er's hand, "If you sprinkle more chili peppers, the meat will only taste spicy, and no one will compete with you for it."

Sai Feier took back her hand, picked up a piece of barbecue and stuffed it into her mouth, "It tastes better if you grab it! Unlike some people, they eat in secret."
