Chapter 541: Chapter 512: This is Fine, He Likes It_1

He Tiantian saw that Huo Yingjie wasn’t sleeping and walked over lightly, saying, "It’s autumn now and the nights are quite cold, why don’t you go back to sleep?"

Huo Yingjie turned his head with a radiant smile.

"It’s okay, I just wanted to look at the stars," Huo Yingjie said. "If you’re not sleepy, shall we watch them together?"

"Sure!" He Tiantian said. "Wait for me."

He Tiantian went back and made some chrysanthemum honey water, took the salty biscuits she had brought back, and placed them on a plate.

"Don’t stand, let’s sit down, drink tea, and have some snacks," He Tiantian said. "Then we can watch the stars together. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, don’t you find the sky here is very clean, and the stars seem so close to us?"

"Yes, it’s as if you could reach out and touch them," Huo Yingjie said. "No wonder Uncle He says the environment here is very good, I can feel it."

Especially the back mountain, that little Spirit Snake and his pets all went to the back mountain, which is a blessed place.

The reason he had been so nostalgic here was because the location of Taoyuan County was where he used to live in Ancient Times. The blessed land on the back mountain was a cultivation cave dwelling he had left behind.

There was a storage room he had sealed under the Dark River, which contained some odds and ends.

However, after the great war between gods and demons, when the spiritual energy had thinned, they in the Divine Realm had opened a new space. He took his old residence and left this place directly, though it was mainly the bulk of his belongings.

Time had passed, the sea had changed into mulberry fields, and the stars had shifted; so much had changed here over the years.

Tiantian was right; everything seemed predestined.

"Yes, if you like it, stay here longer," He Tiantian said. "It’s autumn now, and we can pick a lot of things on the back mountain."

"Are the dried goods you send to your family every year harvested at this time?" Huo Yingjie took a sip of the honey water and ate a piece of snack.

He Tiantian nodded and said, "Yes, this year with you joining us, we will surely have a greater harvest."

"Then good, I’ll accompany you," Huo Yingjie said. This place used to be his, and he could vaguely sense where the good things were; he would get more of them for He Tiantian.

After eating snacks and drinking tea, He Tiantian prepared some hot water for Huo Yingjie to wash up, and then they each went back to rest.

"Tiantian!" Huo Yingjie saw He Tiantian turn to leave and called her softly.

"Hmm?" He Tiantian turned her head and tilted it, "Brother Yingjie, did you call me?"

Huo Yingjie reached out his long hand and pressed He Tiantian’s little head against his chest, saying softly, "I haven’t hugged you all afternoon."

He Tiantian was hugely embarrassed. Anyway, there was no one in the yard, Dad was drunk, Mom was taking care of Dad, and grandma had already gone to rest.

He Tiantian boldly hugged Huo Yingjie back and said, "Then I’ll hug you too. Don’t you feel very happy?"

"I do feel it," Huo Yingjie said earnestly.

He Tiantian tiptoed and kissed Huo Yingjie on the face, saying, "Good night!"

She ran into her room and closed the door.

Watching He Tiantian’s retreating figure, Huo Yingjie smiled and returned to his own room.

Lying on the hard bed, Huo Yingjie rested his head on his hands, recalling the bits and pieces of these days.

East side has a sunrise, west side rain, they say there’s no sunshine but there it is!

The life of humans, it turned out, was so interesting.

Envying the mandarin ducks, not the immortals.

No wonder some gods and even demons were willing to intermarry with humans.

Merging with the Changling Supreme God, Huo Yingjie’s Divine Sense became a complete personality or a complete divine being, whether as a human or a god.

This was good, he liked it.

He wanted to age slowly like ordinary humans, spending a short life with the woman he loved.

The next morning, He Tiantian was woken up by the crowing of the big rooster in her family’s yard, she opened her eyes, stretched lazily, and yawned.

There was only one word to describe it—refreshing!

Except for Wang Shuping, everyone else got up one after another.

He Tiantian returned home and took on all the chores, and of course, with her big sidekick Huo Yingjie.

After finishing the chores, He Tiantian took the gifts she had brought from Nan City and went around Qijia Village.

On the road, she ran into Zhao Dajiao with her daughter and grandson, two twin grandsons, and He Tiantian took out several pieces of White Rabbit Creamy Candy from her pocket, giving each child two pieces.

The little kids, sweet-mouthed, said, "Aunt Tiantian, you’re so pretty."

This was Zhao Dajiao’s eldest grandson, Qi Ergou’s eldest son, who was quite familiar with He Tiantian.

"So good," He Tiantian praised.

Zhao Dajiao pulled the children aside and said, "Tiantian, go ahead with your business, don’t mind this little rascal."

"Aunt Zhao, I’ve still got things to do. I’ll visit your place later," He Tiantian said with a smile.

Huo Yingjie softly said from behind, "Goodbye, Aunt Zhao!"

Zhao Dajiao, exhilarated to see the noble-appearing Huo Yingjie speak to her, thought, oh my, Huo Yingjie is so handsome! Together with Tiantian, they truly were a talented man and beautiful woman!

"Goodbye, goodbye," Zhao Dajiao said repeatedly.

What secrets could children have? Soon, the playmates all knew that Sister Tiantian was pretty and gave away candies, and they all gathered near Third Grandma Qi’s home waiting for He Tiantian to come back, hoping to get some candy.

Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian first went to see Old Man Qi and Professor Wang, bringing them gifts.

Since He Tiantian’s mother was at home and her father was busy, she didn’t stay long and brought Huo Yingjie back with her."

Upon returning to the village, lots of little kiddos sprang up—some fairly clean, while others had snot nearly dripping to their mouths, yet always managed to suck it back at the critical moment.

"Sister Tiantian, you’re so pretty!"

"So pretty, so pretty!"

He Tiantian roughly estimated there were a dozen children, all two or three years old, and some looked very much alike, probably the twins born in the village in the last two or three years.

There were so many, He Tiantian simply didn’t recognize them.

Seeing this, He Tiantian had no choice but to take out a big handful of White Rabbit Creamy Candies from the basket, saying, "Two pieces of candy for each person, don’t push, line up, those who are obedient will get some."

"Oh, oh!" The children lined up obediently, albeit clumsily.

After distributing the candy, the kids continued to praise He Tiantian for being pretty.

Dinner was approaching, and the village adults came out to fetch their children. Seeing the candy He Tiantian had given, they all came over to thank her.
