Chapter 36 Taking an Inch and Wanting a Mile (1/3)

Yan Yu returned to the main room with an umbrella, his body carrying the moisture from his shower and a clean, fresh scent.

He folded the umbrella and stood it under the eaves by the door.

He turned and closed the door, the heavy bolt clicking shut and completely shutting out the sound of the torrential rain outside.

It was as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them.

I turned around and saw the little girl standing under the lamp.

She stood there gracefully, her clear almond-shaped eyes looking at him with a piercing gaze.

The girl, who had just finished bathing, seemed to be glowing.

Her long, black hair was half-wet, still damp, and hung softly down her back.

A few unruly strands of hair clung to her fair cheeks, making her small face appear even more pure and beautiful.

She was wearing a light pink long-sleeved shirt and trousers. The soft fabric outlined the girl's shapely figure, and her dazzlingly white skin shone with a soft, jade-like luster under the light.

Yan Yu's heart, which was already pounding wildly with joy, completely lost control the moment he saw her.

They jumped even more wildly.

He made an amazing discovery just now in the kitchen.

Since arriving in this world, his space has been like being bound by an invisible shackle. He can sense the items inside and take out what he wants with his mind, but he can no longer enter freely as before, nor can he see the whole picture inside.

But just now, after that kiss in the kitchen, he clearly felt that the shackles had shattered!

Not only that!

His metal-type ability, which had declined to level three, suddenly surged to level four after he soaked in the hot water prepared by the little girl!

Even lightning-type abilities, which had been downgraded to level one, became active again.

He went into the space and saw that everything inside had been restored. The barren land had been nourished by a mysterious power, and the cracked earth had become moist. He figured that after a few more visits, it would be full of life again.

All the changes pointed to the girl in front of them.

His little girl.

Yan Yu's gaze was intensely fixed on Ruan Tang, his eyes churning with a storm more terrifying than the torrential rain outside the window.

A chilling aura, more terrifying than the torrential rain outside the window, surged in his eyes.

It turns out, she was more than just the person he loved.

It was his salvation!

It was his destiny, it was everything to him!

This realization unleashed the beast that had been imprisoned deep within him for many years, causing it to roar, thrash, and frantically try to break free of its cage!

Yan Yu used all his willpower to barely suppress the possessiveness that was almost destructive.

He slowly stepped forward, pulled the person in front of him into his arms, and held her with all his might, the force so great that it seemed he wanted to crush her and knead her into his own bones.

The man lowered his head and gently, reverently pressed his burning lips against her smooth, full forehead.
