One early morning, gentle sunlight bathed the earth.
In the little courtyard, amid the cool morning breeze, Jing Zhi and Lu Mingyuan, the young couple, enjoyed their loving breakfast together as usual.
Now and then, one would feed the other a bite. At other times, they simply exchanged smiles, as if everything was understood without a word.
After breakfast.
Seeing that Lu Mingyuan was in a better mood, Jing Zhi finally couldn't help asking what had happened.
In her memory, her Mingyuan had never acted like that before. She was truly worried—so worried.
"Mingyuan, what happened to you just now? What's wrong?"
Across the stone table, Lu Mingyuan saw the worry written all over Jing Zhi's lovely face, and his heart gave a slight pang. He pondered for a moment before slowly replying:
"It's really nothing."
But when he saw that Jing Zhi didn't believe him at all, he raised an eyebrow and gave a bitter smile. I knew I couldn't fool this girl.
"Actually, I was just learning the two divine abilities, [Ziwei Astrology] and [Void Imprint], so I ended up like that."
Jing Zhi still seemed a little confused, as if she were thinking, "That's it?" So Lu Mingyuan could only explain further:
"I just feel like having these two divine abilities means I have no privacy anymore.
"It's like someone's watching me all the time."
Jing Zhi gave a little shake of her head, seeming to understand. "But with these two divine abilities, we can finally have the peace and stability we've been missing.
"Without them, we'd be back in those days when no one knew if they'd live to see tomorrow. So I think giving up a little privacy is worth it."
Hearing this, Lu Mingyuan's eyes widened.
She had a point!
