Chapter 793 "Tang Luoke is back?"
The Duke slowly raised his hand and placed it on her back.
The scent of a little rabbit filled my arms.
His breath was soft, brushing against her hair, warm and slow, as if he were remembering this moment, etching it into his bones.
The lanterns under the eaves bounced again.
A breeze stirred on the lake, and the blue lotus swayed gently in the ripples.
"Let's go back inside."
The Duke carried her back to the study.
Yu Zhizhi was very sleepy. She nestled in the Duke's arms, in a familiar place, with familiar scents and a familiar embrace...
She was quickly taken to the backyard, where the hot spring was steaming. The Duke's movements were as gentle as ever, and her fatigue from the journey seemed to be wiped away.
After the washing was finished, the Duke carried her back to bed.
A white nightgown clung to her slender body, its neckline adorned with delicate lace. Her long, wet hair cascaded over her shoulders, water droplets dripping from the ends.
The rabbit's ears were wet, hanging limply on the sides of its face, with the downy hair at the tips of its ears sticking together in clumps, covered with tiny, glistening water droplets.
The Duke sat on the edge of the bed, his palms outstretched.
A very faint, silvery-white light appeared in his palm.
The light rose from his palm and slowly drifted toward Yu Zhizhi's wet hair.
Her hair slowly became fluffy and dry in the light mist.
Yu Zhizhi's rabbit ears trembled gently in the light mist. The feeling of the water droplets being dispersed was ticklish. She shrank her neck, but still reached out her hands and hugged the Duke's waist.
"Alright, go to sleep." The Duke gently stroked her rabbit ears.
"And you?" Yu Zhizhi looked up at him.
The Duke looked at her, a faint smile playing on his golden, vertical pupils: "I'll stay here with you."
Hearing his answer, Yu Zhizhi felt a sense of satisfaction.
A slight smile curved her lips as she slowly lay back down on the bed, pressing her cheek against the soft pillow. She didn't forget to reach out and grasp the Duke's sleeve, and thus slowly drifted off to sleep.
In my dream.
She dreamed of a bunch of little snakes.
The small, black snakes looked just like the Duke when he was a child. They circled around him, constantly calling "Mama."
Among them, a small white snake stood out.
It's little Amon.
Yu Zhizhi slept for a long time. When she woke up, the little black snake that was squatting by her pillow was caught red-handed before it could transform into human form.
She stared at the small snake so close to her, her eyes widening slightly.
"Mother, Mother." A moment of panic flashed in Yun Nuo's snake eyes. She raised her snake tail, took a few steps back, and distanced herself from Yu Zhizhi.
Yunnuo felt a little nervous.
It fears that its mother will hate its animal form.
Yu Zhizhi smiled and reached out to hug the little snake cub.
Good morning, is this... Yunnuo?
She wasn't quite sure.
However, I noticed a very small, light-colored mole at the corner of the little snake's eye.
She remembered that Yunnuo did have one.
Yunnuo was suddenly hugged, and it was both excited and on the verge of crying: "It's me! Mother!"
It has participated in many trials and tribulations, overcoming all obstacles along the way.
Of the six snake cubs, it was the eldest, always feigning maturity and reliability. Only when facing its mother could it soften, snuggling into the arms of the little rabbit-woman, its tail quietly curling up, carefully pressing against its mother.
Yu Zhizhi is no longer afraid of snakes at all.
She gently stroked the scales on the baby snake's back.
"Where is His Majesty the Duke?"
"People from the palace have come to discuss state affairs." The little snake hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell its mother, "It's about... the empire's war machine." Yu Zhizhi's fingers paused slightly.
When she realized what the little snake cub was saying, she suddenly sat up.
The Empire's War Machine?
That's Tang Luoke!
—Is there any news from Tang?
She quickly got up, washed, and changed into clothes that her servants had prepared beforehand, intending to go to the council chamber.
I had only taken two steps when I saw the Duke returning.
When the Duke returned from the council chamber, he immediately spotted the little female rabbit.
She stood at the entrance of the bookstore, her light purple, belted long dress accentuating her slender waist, the hem of which reached her ankles and swayed gently in the breeze. Her long, black hair cascaded over her shoulders, her rabbit ears stood up, and her expression was innocent and charming.
"Your Grace~" Yu Zhizhi saw the familiar figure and happily ran over.
The Duke watched as she ran up to him, but before he could even ask if she had eaten breakfast, the little rabbit looked up excitedly and asked, "Tang Locke is back?"
The Duke's golden vertical pupils narrowed slightly: "You're so happy to see me, just because of this?"
Just to find out about Don Locke?
Yu Zhizhi smiled a little shyly: "I haven't heard anything about him in a long time."
Tang Luoke is elusive; Yu Zhizhi only knows that he has always been on an alien planet.
As a key figure in the Valoran Empire's expeditionary force, his fame spread far and wide through several interstellar wars. Many stowaways disappeared without a trace, no longer daring to run rampant on the beast planet.
The Duke walked toward the bookstore.
Yu Zhizhi followed.
The little snake cub Yunnuo, who had leaked the information, has already gone into hiding.
Upon entering the house, the Duke went straight to the dining table.
"Do you remember the crisis we encountered at the amusement park last time?"
Yu Zhizhi nodded: "I remember."
That time, it was a mechanical, cyborg-like life form. It was also during that time that the little octopus entered reincarnation.
At that time, that mechanical creature threatened the little octopus with her life.
If it weren't for the spider, the little octopus might have already been abducted.
"Their home planet was destroyed." The Duke said casually, as if asking, "What's the menu today?" "K made it."
Yu Zhizhi was stunned.
Tang Dynasty...
Did they go to that planet?
"This attack on the star was not part of the Empire's plans. However, if he wants to do it, I support him. As for those who oppose it... their opposition is invalid." A faint smile appeared on the Duke's face.
As Yu Zhizhi listened, her eyes suddenly felt warm.
"Is it... for me?"
It was because of the Paradise Incident that Tang Locke was able to conquer that planet.
Unexpectedly, the Duke uttered these few words lightly, but he must have withstood the pressure within the Empire, and even the entire Beast Planet.
Thinking of how Tang Locke and the Duke protected her without regard for the consequences, Yu Zhizhi felt a lump in her throat.
She reached out and grasped the Duke's fingers.
Was he injured?
"Ah."
"is it serious?"
"Fortunately."
Although the Duke felt a little uneasy, he could only pat the little rabbit's cheek and say, "Don't worry, he's healed. It's just that he can't come back for the time being."
He paused, then said in a low voice, "Of course, if you can stay in the Valoran Empire for a long time, you might be able to wait for him."
That statement was practically bewitching her.
If he could, the Duke would love to keep the little rabbit forever.
Yu Zhizhi seriously considered how long she could stay at most.
Before he could come up with a definite answer, he heard a servant's voice from the doorway: "Lord Platinum, the K family has arrived. They say that Miss Zhizhi has returned, and those little wolf cubs can't contain themselves and have already come to the Duke's mansion."
It's getting late, good morning everyone, see you tomorrow~
