Chapter 425: Encounter 24
Seeing that Chi Jibai remained unmoved, Tian Zhou became a little exasperated, wondering why Chi Jibai was so reckless.
[Without Chen Yuan, it will be difficult for you to survive the next hibernation, and the recovery period will be longer. It is not worth it for an ordinary life form.
What's more... even if you really want to help him recover his eyesight, I can still let you go. There's no need to use Shen Yuan for such a small matter! 】
Chi Jibai's behavior had made Tianzhou so angry that he didn't know what to say. Tianzhou, who was even more old-fashioned than Chi Jibai, could actually say the word "let him off the hook".
Chi Jibai cares about this life form, that's fine! Rules are dead, but people are alive. Even if Chi Jibai did something out of line, or even took this life form away, Tianzhou would only scold him while dealing with the remaining problems for him. After all, no one above him could control Chi Jibai, so they would just let him do whatever he wanted.
But how could Chi Jibai send Chen Yuan away!
[01. Shenyuan is not a trivial matter. Although this is yours, it concerns the Ten Thousand Worlds, so you cannot give it away casually! ]
Seeing that Chi Jibai didn't reply for a long time, Tianzhou's voice tone became slightly higher.
"Tianzhou, when will my next hibernation be?"
【67 Ten Thousand World Years.】
Chi Jibai did not directly answer Tianzhou's question, but instead avoided the question.
"Is the next hibernation really the same as usual? Tianzhou, you don't have to lie to me. I know my own physical condition best."
Tianzhou fell silent suddenly. It was a machine, and no one could guess its emotions when it didn't speak. Perhaps it realized that Chi Jibai already knew something and felt shocked and horrified, or perhaps it was speechless and completely silent, allowing Chi Jibai to integrate the object named Chenyuan into Shen Yu's left eye.
......
Early in the morning, Shen Yu suddenly woke up from his sleep, raised his hand to touch his eyes, and found that they were intact. The bright images in front of him made him feel uncomfortable, so he subconsciously closed his left eye and squinted his right eye.
After a while, Shen Yu rubbed his eyes, and looked at the room full of gifts with his two eyes intact.
That’s right, my brother took me to have surgery half a month ago, and my eyes have returned to normal, but I’m still a little uncomfortable after just waking up.
Talking about the operation, Shen Yu didn't remember it very clearly. He vaguely felt his eyesight got better and he no longer had to worry about becoming blind every day.
It was just that I seemed to have had a dream, in which I could not see anything with my eyes, and I dreamt of falling from a high altitude...
"elder brother."
Shen Yu jumped out of bed in his pajamas, wanting to look for Chi Jibai. Before opening the door, he subconsciously looked at the full-length mirror in the room.
His black hair fell to his shoulders and his facial features were extremely handsome. One could already vaguely tell what he would look like when he grew up. His light golden eyes seemed to hold the silver light of a clear moon. He exuded a clean temperament that was untainted by the worldly complexities. His eyebrows and eyes were as delicate as a painting, yet without a trace of sinister air.
Shen Yu blinked and stared at the pair of light golden eyes again. He half-closed his eyes, and his long eyelashes just outlined a bit of coldness when he was not smiling. Thinking of Chi Jibai, his eyes lit up again, making the boy's eyebrows and eyes look a little gentler.
There were clanging sounds outside the house, and Shen Yu quickly opened the door and ran out, only to find a cloud of black smoke coming from the direction of the kitchen. Chi Jibai came out coughing in a rather embarrassed manner as if fleeing, with a plate in his hand.
After confirming that Chi Jibai was fine, Shen Yu shifted his gaze to the plate of unknown object.
Shen Yu:......
At this time, there were three dishes and a soup on the table. If you look carefully, you can see that they are the dishes that Shen Yu usually likes to eat, but the appearance is not very good.
Chi Jibai stared at the dishes for a few more seconds, and thought roughly that they were almost the same as what Shen Yu made. Then he nodded with satisfaction and turned to look at Shen Yu.
He took off his apron and threw it on the chair. Chi Jibai's shirt, which was only half-buttoned, lost its restraint and slid down a little, revealing his collarbone. When he leaned over, his upper body was even more clearly visible. His delicate eyebrows were painted in the sunlight, and Shen Yu's eyes were glued to them and couldn't move away.
"Happy birthday."
Chi Jibai walked forward and skillfully picked up the dazed Shen Yu by the waist, put him on the chair, and brought the cake that had been prepared long ago to the table.
In fact, even Shen Yu himself didn't quite know his birthday, so Chi Jibai simply set the day they met as his birthday.
Since Shen Yu didn't go to school, Chi Jibai personally taught him to read and write. In fact, Shen Yu was very smart and well-behaved. Even if Chi Jibai was not a qualified teacher, he could quickly make up for the backward knowledge.
Shen Yu sat in his chair in a daze, looking at the slightly burnt food in front of him.
So, Chi Jibai cooked for the first time because it was his birthday?
He looked at the cake again. Although it was not big, it was exquisite enough and even better looking than the cake that Lu Miao had on her birthday.
"elder brother?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Chi Jibai leaning forward and approaching. The touch on his neck was itchy. When Chi Jibai left, Shen Yu looked down and found that it was a golden longevity lock.
A longevity lock made of gold.
Shen Yu had seen the longevity lock on Shen Zong’s neck before, but it was not as big or as beautiful as this one.
It was Chi Jibai’s first time celebrating someone’s birthday, and he didn’t know what to do, so he searched for birthday tutorials online.
Fortunately, apart from cooking by himself, the remaining points were not difficult. But in fact, Chi Jibai still overestimated himself. He spent nearly three hours in the kitchen, but the dish was still a little mushy and did not look good.
During that meal, Shen Yu felt like he was floating in the sky and stepping on cotton. He was still in a daze and couldn't come back to his senses until Chi Jibai took him to the amusement park.
Even though Chi Jibai was usually very nice to him and even cured his eyesight, Shen Yu was always uneasy because he and Chi Jibai had no blood relationship.
How could someone be so nice to him?
Shen Yu just felt it was unreal. After all, the two of them were just strangers who met but didn't talk a year ago, and the gifts Chi Jibai prepared for him today were more surprises than he had ever received since he was a child. What's more, his room was already filled with many gifts that he hadn't had time to open.
Chi Jibai was like a newbie, frantically looking through the guide to celebrate Shen Yu's new life.
"Brother...I don't need it, even if...eh?"
Just when Shen Yu wanted to say something, Chi Jibai picked him up, and the ice cream in his hand almost smeared his face. He wanted to turn his head to look, but Chi Jibai patted his head gently, so he resigned himself to lying in his arms.
Chi Jibai is very tall, so even though Shen Yu is being held in his arms now, it doesn't look out of place at all.
It’s just that Shen Yu was already nine years old, and was being held in Chi Jibai’s arms like a little child. He couldn’t help feeling a little shy, so he simply buried his face in Chi Jibai’s arms.
Shen Yu was immersed in the happiness of today, but Chi Jibai's expression suddenly turned cold. Not far away, Shen Zong was looking at the familiar figure in astonishment, being held in the arms of a strange man.
That is...Shen Yu?
