Chapter 1283: Chapter 1283: Pursuing Gu Yuena Again.
When Gu Yuena awoke from her sleep, she felt incredibly refreshed and her chest felt expansive. She let out a long breath and gently stood up from the ground.
Walking to the window, she looked outside. Gazing at the distant lake and feeling the rich presence of life, she suddenly realized that this sense of relaxation and relief seemed to be her first since birth.
This feeling is truly wonderful.
Stretching her body, her delicate figure revealing graceful curves, she turned and walked towards the door, wanting to go out for a walk, perhaps around that lake. That would surely feel wonderful.
Opening the door, she was surprised to find Tang Wulin standing outside, holding a tray with steaming steamed buns, braised meat, porridge, eggs, and other ordinary foods.
The rising steam carried a unique aroma that instantly gave Gu Yuena a strong sense of hunger.
âBreakfast?â Tang Wulin said with a beaming smile. His handsome features were somehow enhanced by the presence of the food.
Gu Yuenaâs brows knit slightly, âHow long have you been here?â
âNot long, just a moment. Are you hungry?â While speaking, Tang Wulin stepped inside, and Gu Yuena didnât stop him. The food on his tray was too tempting.
After closing the door behind her, Tang Wulin presented the tray to Gu Yuena, âHere you go.â
Looking at the two bowls of porridge on the tray, Gu Yuena glared at him, then suddenly picked up one bowl and drank it with a âgulp gulp gulpâ.
âTake it easy, slow down.â Tang Wulin couldnât help but chuckle.
After finishing one bowl of porridge, Gu Yuena picked up the other bowl, placed the empty one on Tang Wulinâs side, then grabbed a steamed bun and began to eat.
Under Tang Wulinâs astonished gaze, the breakfast for two was devoured in no time. Gu Yuena didnât even leave a crumb of the steamed bun for him.
âHmm, Iâm full. You can go now.â Gu Yuena waved her hand dismissively.
Tang Wulin looked at the plate, then at her, and said with a sense of resignation, âYou ate my portion too.â
Gu Yuena glanced at him, âYour portion? Where is it?â
Tang Wulin pointed at her belly, âYou ate it!â
Gu Yuena retorted, âWith your level of Cultivation, why do you need breakfast? Donât you need it? Donât waste food if you donât need it. Out you go.â While talking, she pushed him out the door.
When the door closed behind Tang Wulin, he was still somewhat bewildered. What does my level of Cultivation have to do with anything? Canât people with strong Cultivation eat? Thatâs not right! Sheâs about the same level of Cultivation as I am! How come she ate it all?
Looking at the empty plates and bowls on the tray in his hand, Tang Wulin couldnât help but laugh and shake his head. Sheâs over ten thousand years old, and yet, why is she acting petulant with me?
But it doesnât matter, Iâm willing! At least she ate the food I brought her.
Having eaten her fill, Gu Yuena decided not to go out after all. She found that being full made one sleepy. So she leaned against the bed, sat on the meditation cushion, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep again. She loved this feeling of complete relaxation too much.
Within the Sea Godâs Pavilion, one cannot sense the passage of time outside, so when Gu Yuena woke up again, she had no idea how much time had passed in the outside world.
Lazily stretching, she immediately felt exceptionally comfortable all over, as if she had fully merged with the surrounding world, mastering the laws. If she wished, her divine consciousness could easily extend to every corner of this planet. But she didnât want to, she didnât even let her divine consciousness stretch outward, maintaining the state of an ordinary person.
âKnock, knock, knock,â just then, a knocking sound came from the door.
Gu Yuena blinked her eyes, stood up, and tidied up her slightly messy silver hair before walking to the door.
âWho is it?â
âItâs me.â Tang Wulinâs voice came from outside.
âWhat are you doing here again?â Gu Yuena said irritably.
âDelivering your meal! Itâs noon; time to eat,â Tang Wulin replied helplessly. It seemed he had long forgotten that at their level of Cultivation, eating was not even necessary.
Gu Yuena was momentarily stunned, then instinctively opened the door. Sure enough, outside stood Tang Wulin, holding a slightly larger tray, which was laden with sumptuous dishes.
âIs it time for lunch already? That was fast! I only dozed off for a moment,â Gu Yuena murmured.
Suppressing a laugh, Tang Wulin said, âYou didnât just sleep right after breakfast and have only just woken up, did you?â
âOf course not. Iâve been awake for a while,â Gu Yuena immediately clarified for herself.
Tang Wulin walked into the room, set the tray on the ground, and gestured to Gu Yuena, âCan you still eat?â
âOf course.â Gu Yuena sat down unceremoniously opposite him, starting to eat heartily without even glancing at him.
This time, Tang Wulin had learned his lesson and immediately started to eat, racing her for the food. Both of them ate swiftly, and in just a moment, like the wind sweeping through leaves, they devoured all the food Tang Wulin had brought.
Looking up at Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena stared, âHow can you still eat so much?â
Tang Wulin paused, âYou remember when I used to eat a lot?â
Gu Yuena also paused, then shook her head repeatedly, âI donât remember. I just felt like saying that.â
A ripple of something different gently stirred in his heart, Tang Wulin picked up a clean napkin and naturally wiped the corner of her mouth. Gu Yuena instinctively wanted to dodge, but for some reason, in that instant, she happened to catch Tang Wulinâs gaze.
His eyes were focused and tender, as if he were wiping the most precious thing in the world. Seeing his gaze, Gu Yuena naturally stopped her motion, letting him wipe her mouth.
Tang Wulin put down the napkin and said, âIâll clean up first. Youâve slept for quite a while. Can we talk later? Donât worry, we wonât talk about the past. Letâs talk about our son, is that okay?â
Gu Yuenaâs eyebrows slightly furrowed, she looked at him and replied, âAlright.â
Tang Wulin carried the tray away, and after a short time, he returned to the room and closed the door.
For some reason, as Gu Yuena watched him walking towards her, she suddenly felt a bit nervous and shifted backward.
âKeep a three-meter distance from me,â Gu Yuena pointed to the cushion she had arranged opposite herself.
âOh, okay!â Tang Wulin readily agreed, sitting down three meters away from her.
Seeing him maintain the distance, Gu Yuena breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he couldnât touch her from this distance.
The two sat facing each other, Tang Wulin gazing into Gu Yuenaâs large purple eyes, his own eyes becoming increasingly tender. Gradually, the tenderness turned to fascination, and he subconsciously raised his hand as if he wanted to grasp something.
âWhat are you doing? Didnât you say you wanted to talk?â Gu Yuena said warily.
âOh, right. Letâs talk,â Tang Wulin snapped out of it and quickly said.
âI want to ask you, do you remember anything about giving birth to our son? Were you in human form or dragon form when it happened?â Tang Wulin asked curiously.
Gu Yuena looked bewildered and shook her head, âI donât know! I was thawed out of ice. I was in human form then, I guess.â
Tang Wulin said, âI was found in the sea, washed ashore and rescued by someone. It was a girl who saved me. I couldnât remember anything at the time, luckily she took care of me. Later, she said I was good-looking and suggested I become a celebrity. So, I gave it a shot and started singing.â
âA girl? Was she pretty?â Gu Yuena blurted out.
