Simply Because He Is Here

Their eyes met, and Jiang Lin had never seen such beautiful eyes before.

Beneath her willow-leaf eyebrows, her long eyelashes seemed to hold water droplets; her eyes, though not as round as Chen Jia's, possessed a classical, slender, and graceful beauty.

As alluring as silk, perhaps this is the essence of it.

But Jiang Lin felt that he was acting very strangely.

Well, how should I put it?

Jiang Lin's idea was that he should take his sword and face this girl to test her strength.

Then I know I can't beat this girl; I'll be 100% killed by her with one slap.

Finally, use Resurrection Coin to revive yourself from a distance and escape quickly!

However, looking into those eyes, it wasn't just that they were beautiful; the feeling of familiarity grew stronger and stronger.

Although I can't remember it at all, it seems to be something I lost and wanted to find in my childhood.

Jiang Lin even felt that if he missed this opportunity again, he would miss it for the rest of his life!

Moreover, Jiang Lin couldn't tell why, but he always sensed a hint of guilt and self-reproach in her eyes, along with a deep longing and loneliness.

It's like Little Fox that was once abandoned finally finding its owner, only to discover that he has ultimately forgotten her.

Of course, Jiang Lin felt that this was all just his own imagination.

But it's these strange thoughts that have left Jiang Lin wondering what he's doing.

It seemed that leaving was not an option, nor was drawing one's sword.

So I just got cornered by this girl...

It was a little exciting, but something still felt off.

"Young lady... please have some self-respect..."

Finally, looking at the girl in front of him, Jiang Lin closed his eyes, turned his head, and whispered.

He looks exactly like a young heartthrob cornered by a domineering CEO...

Jiang Lin's voice reached Bai Jiu Yi's ears.

Almost instantly, beneath the veil, a slight blush rose on the girl's cheeks, her eyes sparkling like stars, as clear as water and as dreamlike as a dream.

For Bai Jiu Yi, it was just a little girl's tantrum at first, a case of "if you retreat, I'll advance."

But later, especially when she cornered Jiang Lin against the wall, the girl felt a strange sense of accomplishment.

Gradually, looking at Jiang Lin's lips, the girl felt an unprecedented urge that made her blush uncontrollably.

"Drink your medicine!"

The girl, dressed in White Gauze Waist-tied Dress with a perfect figure, turned around, and her voice, like a command, resounded in Jiang Lin's Heart-Lake.

It seemed like this girl had never spoken a word, and Jiang Lin even began to wonder if she had a problem with her vocal cords...

"I wonder where I am?"

Seeing the girl turn around, seemingly without any strange thoughts about him, and even giving him medicine, Jiang Lin felt much calmer.

"Here?"

Turning back to face Jiang Lin, her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she were chuckling. Strangely, this chuckle aroused in Jiang Lin the desire to tear off her veil.

Jiang Lin quickly activated Careful Heart Incantation in his mind to regain his composure.

But what exactly is wrong with this girl?

She didn't use any seductive arts, yet a simple smile could sway her reason—isn't that a bit too much?

This is my boudoir.

"Ha?"

Before Jiang Lin could react, the girl pointed to the huge bed. "The bed you've been sleeping in these past few days, that's the bed I slept in too."

"..."

For some reason, Jiang Lin had a feeling that this girl seemed smug.

It has a smug and endearing quality to it, like, "You not only entered my boudoir, you've also slept in my bed! Your innocence has been defiled by me."

Jiang Lin even found the girl's aloof, queen-like image endearing.

"I wonder what Girl Bai's purpose is in bringing me here?"

Jiang Lin felt like he was being seduced, and in order to stay rational, Jiang Lin felt he had to keep the conversation serious.

I can't let this girl, who seems aloof but also has a kind of naturally adorable naiveté, lead me astray.

"Purpose..."

The girl glanced at Jiang Lin one last time, her eyes widening slightly. She didn't answer his question but turned and left.

"You'll find out in the future that what you are now is nothing more than mine!"

Watching the girl leave, the door closed again, leaving Jiang Lin, who was left in the room, completely bewildered.

Jiang Lin once fantasized about owning billions or being the ruler of a country, then seeing a beautiful girl, bringing her into his mansion, and uttering such domineering words...

Now, my dream has come true.

However... it seems the roles have been reversed...

After taking his medicine, Jiang Lin Jiang Lin back down on the bed. He didn't want to leave for a while, and the faint fragrance of the soft bed made him feel sleepy.

Jiang Lin felt that there was something wrong with the script.

Maybe I'm already part of the Sun Moon Sect, and this is all just a dream. I might even feel a little touched when I wake up...

Stepping out of the room and into the courtyard, Bai Jiu Yi suddenly in a state of utter confusion.

Even though she's already at the Immortal Realm, whenever something involves him, she seems to forever remain that Little Fox who never grows up.

In truth, Bai Jiu Yi herself didn't know what her purpose was in bringing him back to the White Empire.

For the girl, all she wanted was to see him! Whether he disliked her or hated her, she just wanted him to stay by her side.

Bai Jiu Yi also knew that this was a form of possessiveness on her part.

But so what if it's possessiveness?

What I want, I will have!

Especially after Wu Su Su developed malicious intentions towards Jiang Lin and wanted to take him back to the Demon Race World, her possessiveness grew stronger and stronger.

In fact, Bai Jiu Yi didn't know that besides possessiveness, she also had a protective instinct towards him.

The Demon Race World is not as friendly as the Vast and Righteous World, especially since the Demon Race World has become more chaotic under Wu Su Su over the past few hundred years. In the Demon Race World, people don't even know how they died.

However, Bai Jiu Yi would never admit to his protective instincts!

Don't ask, because you can't figure out what's on a girl's mind...

Ultimately, driven by various factors, Bai Jiu Yi brought Jiang Lin back to the White Empire.

There was no ulterior motive; it was just that this silly girl was doing silly things.

"Never mind! He's mine anyway! Now that I've brought him here, he's not leaving! Nobody can take him away!"

She stopped in her tracks, staring blankly at the palace where he stood. For the first time, her eyes revealed a look of unwavering determination and joy.

This was the first time the girl had felt such anticipation for every day and every moment of her future.

Simply because he was there.
