Chapter 40 Ah, the moon comes out in night
Han Li and his fiance stood side by side just outside her home. "I guess your father is still out," he said.
Liyue nodded. She was a bit nervous. What did Han Li want to speak with her?
"Now that it is sure that you will be mine from now on. I have some conditions I hope you can fulfill..." His voice lingered for a while before he continued, "Nothing much, only two conditions."
Liyue nodded. Her neck was slightly red... How can he so casually say something like you are mine...
"So, first of all. After our marriage, I want you to look after my mom very well. Especially if I am not around for some reason." Han Li looked into her eyes, "Understood?"
She nodded. That was not much, she just had to see Yue Li like her own mother.
"Second thing, this is very important. Well, don't reveal anything that you feel is a secret of ours to anybody other than me and Mom." He had no plans of revealing Yue Li's Luck-Chat System or his own secrets. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
What she had to know, she will know. But if she ended up seeing something, it would be troublesome. Thus, he warned her beforehand.
He didn't really mind though. His own important secrets would be secrets in his own mind and the only secrets Yue Li had were her previous life on Earth and the System. He had firmly warned her not to reveal anything like that, so she wouldn't.
Yue Li also understood that these things might be coveted treasures. She wasn't one to look for troubles herself.
Liyue found the second condition to be somewhat weird but didn't linger on it too much and nodded. Maybe they had some secrets about the clan that Han Li's father came from that they didn't want others to know.
"Also, this is not a condition but I am just a human. Your husband to boot. So, you should try speaking to me."
She was so nervous every time. She had barely spoken to him ever since they met. Nevertheless, she nodded.
"Anyway, as Mother-in-law said, my Mom is still alone... I will go for now." Han Li chuckled, waved his hands, and turned around. Before Liyue could process everything, he was far into the distance.
She just stood there and looked at him as her hair flowed in the night wind. She tucked it into place with a hand. '...he undid my hair because he... hugged me too hard.' Her heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Her hands couldn't help but clench itself.
On the other hand, some distance away, a fatty lied under a bush and sighed. "Youth, such a wonderful thing."
Had it been his own house, Han Li would sure have beaten him half to death today. But this time, he didn't mind. He was in somewhat of a carefree mood.
As for Liyue?
She was also someone who had gone through the 3rd Awakening, but she didn't even notice the obvious movement.
...
"Ah the Air smells like fine ash, ah the sun feels hot, ah the fire burns..." Han Li sang an old poem that came to mind and silently vanished into the shadows of night.
It was said that someone who had plowed the fields long enough would know when a harvest was soon. It was the same for him.
He could intuitively tell the energy in the surrounding atmosphere was rising. The day of Energy Abundance was soon, and this time, Starlight Clan was going to host the Awakening Ceremony.
And for that, a white flag would be risen. A flag representing peace that should not be touched upon. If that moment of peace was to be touched upon...
Han Li smirked. It was near time to remove some pests from his field.
"Ah? What was it again? Whatever... Ah, the moon comes out in night... Ah the fat man is fat..."
