Finally, she reached out and hugged the man in front of her tightly.
He said hatefully...
"That's outrageous! You only woke up now!"
"I'm angry, and I can't be appeased!"
You decide what to do!
"And the amulets you gave to Han Shao and Zhang Zhiyun, but you didn't give me any, and you didn't even tell me!"
"I want a present too!"
Yu Tang couldn't stop laughing.
For the past two and a half years, he has actually been conscious, but due to physical problems, he has been unable to wake up.
He could only use divine power to continuously modify and repair his body, hoping to face Cheng Luo with a healthy body as soon as possible.
Therefore, he knew everything that had happened during this period.
He pushed Cheng Luo away slightly and cupped the man's aggrieved face in his hands.
Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Isn't the gift already in the garden?"
"Don't you like that tree?"
"Giving Han Shao and Zhang Zhiyun only gives them one leaf each, but giving you a whole tree, with countless golden leaves, is a different story."
If that's the case, and you're still jealous, aren't you being a bit petty?
Cheng Luo exclaimed in surprise, "That tree...it really is you..."
“Yes…” Yu Tang said, “That is my gift to you.”
"When the branches are lush and green, I will wake up to see you, and use this healthy body to spend the rest of my life with you."
"So don't be so stingy." Yu Tang pinched his cheek: "Let's go, let's go celebrate his birthday."
Cheng Luo's eyes were filled with excitement.
He smiled, kissed Yu Tang's cheek again, then took his hand and insisted on intertwining their fingers. He led the man downstairs, where Zhang Zhiyun and Han Shao quickly surrounded them. Noticing Cheng Luo's expression, they tacitly took a step back to a safe distance.
He suppressed his excitement and spoke with Yu Tang in a restrained manner.
In the evening, the group had an outdoor barbecue in the yard.
They opened a lot of wine and celebrated Cheng Luo's birthday next to the golden tree.
Everyone was happy and drank a bit more.
Yu Tang listened with delight to their stories of the battlefield and to their playful banter about how they used to be afraid of thunder and spiders, but had now overcome those fears.
They chatted until late at night. Zhang Zhiyun helped Han Shao walk into the castle, tactfully leaving the rest of the time to Cheng Luo and Yu Tang.
The bright moon hangs high, the autumn breeze is cool, and the golden leaves rustle.
The charcoal fire in the shelf burned out, and the last wisp of smoke dissipated.
Yu Tang's eyes were slightly red from the smell of alcohol.
He turned his head to look at Cheng Luo beside him, and gave a slightly wicked smile.
She beckoned to the man with her finger: "Lolo, come closer, I have something to tell you."
Cheng Luo had also drunk a bit too much, and the joy in his heart was amplified infinitely by the alcohol, even giving him an unreal feeling of being in a beautiful dream.
He grabbed Yu Tang's hand and obediently moved closer to the man.
"What did you say?"
Yu Tang then put his other hand to his mouth and deliberately whispered in Cheng Luo's ear.
"I love you……"
Cheng Luo suddenly gripped his hand tightly.
Her lips pursed repeatedly, but she couldn't suppress the laughter that was overflowing from them.
Say it again.
"I love you……"
"The sound is too soft, I can't hear it."
I said—
This time, Yu Tang deliberately drew out her voice, then pulled the smirking man close and kissed him.
Their lips met, and those three words, etched with the deepest love, were forever engraved in Cheng Luo's heart...
Chapter 1
The villain is resurrected for the fourth time (01)
Back in the soul space, Yu Tang sat on a stone bench, tossed the pink soul fragment in his hand up and down a couple of times, and muttered, "As expected of the Desire Soul, even the color of the fragment is so flashy."
The time I spent with Cheng Luo is still vivid in my mind.
He used the divine power he had accumulated in that world to eliminate all the hidden dangers in the body that Cheng Luo had worked so hard to save, so that he could spend the rest of his life with Cheng Luo in good health.
As Cheng Luo had said before, after Yu Tang woke up, she began injecting herself with anti-aging injections every year.
These days, everyone longs for immortality, but Cheng Luo has absolutely no interest in it.
He enjoys the feeling of growing old with Yu Tang even more.
After Qi Guoyu went up, he followed Cheng Luo's advice and kept his tasks behind the scenes, only seeking advice from Cheng Luo when he encountered problems that he couldn't solve.
He promoted many of his confidants, subtly making everyone accept that Cheng Luo was a safe person and worthy of everyone's respect.
Therefore, in the decades that followed, Cheng Luo and Yu Tang were not involved in any power struggles.
They simply lived their lives quietly.
Zhang Zhiyun and Han Shao, those two lively characters, do have their own careers and can't stay in the castle all the time.
After Yu Tang woke up, they didn't come often anymore, only occasionally, spending most of their time busy with their own work.
Later, a new virus broke out abroad.
Requesting assistance from South Korea, Zhang Zhiyun became the team's leading doctor and flew abroad overnight.
However, they were unexpectedly drawn into a local armed rebellion.
One of his legs was blown off, and he also contracted a virus. He was finally rescued, but he can only walk with a prosthetic leg for the rest of his life.
Zhang Zhiyun's family members cried so hard at his bedside that they almost fainted.
Yu Tang asked Cheng Luo if there was any solution.
Cheng Luo also said he had no other options.
He could only create the best prosthetics to help Zhang Zhiyun live a more normal life; he would never dare to use his own cells on the other person.
After all, cell rejection is truly terrifying.
It's a miracle that Yu Tang survived; he was afraid that if he used it on Zhang Zhiyun, it would lead to the latter's death.
Upon hearing this, Yu Tang had no choice but to give up.
With red eyes, Zhang Zhiyun leaned against the hospital bed, gently patted his family member's back, and said with a smile, "Mom, don't cry. I've only lost a leg, it's okay."
I'm even quite happy about it, after all, my hands are much more precious than my legs.
"With these hands, I can still do what I love, and I can still pick up a scalpel to save lives."
Han Shao watched from the side, his fists clenched at his sides. After everyone left, only the two of them remained in the ward.
Seeing his sorrowful face and silence, Zhang Zhiyun put on what he thought was his brightest smile and joked, "Hey, actually I'm a little sad too. I've never been good at pleasing people, and now I've lost a leg and am disabled. I'm afraid it'll be hard for me to find a wife in the future. I doubt anyone will want to marry me..."
"I will take care of you for the rest of my life."
Han Shao interrupted him, as if he had made a great decision, his face, which had become more resolute through trials, was full of determination.
"Xiaoyun, if no one else wants you, I will take care of you for the rest of my life."
He walked over to Zhang Zhiyun and, as he had done many times before, ruffled the man's hair, saying, "Until you find someone you like."
The room fell eerily quiet for a moment.
Zhang Zhiyun's pupils dilated, his fingers gripped the blanket tightly, and his forced smile crumbled instantly. He lowered his head, and tears fell like beads from a broken string.
He clenched his teeth, choking out sobs and cries from his throat.
After a long pause, he finally spoke.
"You've always been the one I've loved, you idiot."
Yu Tang was outside the ward at the time, peeking through the crack and even making a shushing gesture to Cheng Luo. Hearing the two confess their love, he was so happy he wanted to set off a string of firecrackers to celebrate.
After all, these two simpletons are truly a case of one being too shy to speak up and the other being as straight as a telephone pole, dragging their feet for years.
Unexpectedly, this calamity brought the truth to light, and he couldn't be happier.
Later, during Zhang Zhiyun's rehabilitation, Han Shao accompanied him throughout the process.
With Cheng Luo's help, Zhang Zhiyun was fitted with a prosthetic leg and put on trousers, making him look almost indistinguishable from an able-bodied person.
The two confessed their relationship to their families.
I expected to be met with opposition, but instead I received nothing but blessings.
Both families wore expressions that said, "These two silly kids have finally talked things out."
This left Zhang Zhiyun and Han Shao somewhat bewildered.
Later, Yu Tang decided that the four of them should hold a wedding together.
The location chosen was the first shelter that Cheng Luo had established.
The wedding wasn't lavish, but it was still filled with laughter and joy.
The children presented the four men with the flower wreaths they had woven themselves.
They took a group photo together, which was then hung next to the previous group photos.
