Chapter 319 The Ice World in Space
"No~ it wasn't anything, bro, I was wrong, I'll shut up." After saying that, He Junlin made a gesture of pulling his mouth shut.
He was put through a lot by Cui Yu'an in the mecha world a while ago.
This young man is so young, but he trains like his life depends on it.
He'd heard about this "demon king" from his teammates before, but he wasn't entirely clear on what kind of demon king he was. Now, however, he truly understood.
Fearing extra training, He Junlin quickly went into his room.
Watching the two playfully bickering, Yufei felt a scene reminiscent of an idol drama she watched in her past life.
It's just that Cui Yu'an likes her?! She had a chill run down her spine.
She felt a forbidden feeling of being liked by her own younger brother, even though he wasn't her brother.
Hmm~ But if Cui Yu'an really likes her, what does he like about her?
Actually, she's attracted to good looks and wouldn't discourage relationships with younger men, but when she met Cui Yu'an, she sensed he was a guy with high standards.
Back then, she was indeed attracted to the handsome Cui Yu'an, but she felt he probably wouldn't like her.
She suppressed the flutter in her heart, after all, the male god she had a crush on in her past life wasn't even half as good as him and didn't like him.
Moreover, she wondered what kind of girl could win his affection, and what kind of girl she was with in her past life.
After that, she completely treated him like a younger brother. However, He Junlin's teasing today, and Cui Yu'an's reaction...
This made Yufei want to overthink, but she shook her head, telling herself not to think about it.
And don't ruin someone else's destined relationship. The girl he was with in his past life might be waiting for him somewhere.
Doesn't she feel like she's stealing someone else's love by going up to him now?
Yufei suppressed the surge of emotion welling up inside her and pretended not to hear or understand.
Cui Yu'an secretly observed Yufei's reaction, but unfortunately, Yufei's reaction was destined to disappoint him.
Cui Yu'an's eyes darkened, his expression somewhat dejected, but he quickly perked up and smiled.
"Looks like He Junlin is too weak for his wits, huh? He thinks he can escape like this?"
Cui Yu'an made an evil expression.
"He just acts a little cheeky every now and then; you get used to it."
Yufei calmed down from her earlier excitement and joined in on Cui Yu'an's conversation.
This eased the slightly awkward atmosphere.
"Are you going to stay home for three months and then return to the mecha world?"
Yufei asked curiously, but of course, she was about to take the college entrance exam after winter break, so she wouldn't go with them right away.
Asking purely out of curiosity
"We're just coming back for the Spring Festival, and we'll go back home afterward, just in case someone comes looking for us and finds no one there."
"It's a pity that all transportation in Hunan Province is suspended due to heavy snow and ice, so you can't go home for the New Year. But it's okay, you can spend the New Year at my house this year."
Although Xie Yiren, Ai Qiqiu, and He Junlin had already entered their rooms, Yufei and Cui Yu'an still extended an invitation to them during their conversation.
"That's the only way," Cui Yu'an nodded and said, "I'll have to trouble you, Uncle and Auntie."
"What are you saying? This isn't like you, being so polite."
Yufei rolled her eyes and said
"Hehe, I was just being polite on their behalf," Cui Yu'an said, feeling a little embarrassed that this wasn't like him.
"Alright, we're at the door. I'm going back to my room to rest for a bit. I'll call you guys for dinner later."
Yufei really wanted to roll her eyes at Cui Yu'an, thinking to herself, do they need him to be polite?
She would extend an invitation to Xie Yiren and the others at that time, but she didn't say it aloud.
Although the atmosphere had eased somewhat, Yufei still felt a little uneasy.
Perhaps avoiding the situation for a while would ease the awkward atmosphere.
Cui Yu'an nodded after hearing Yufei's words, and went back to his room after Yufei did.
He was also thinking that Yufei would be graduating from high school soon. He had overheard Yufei saying that she wouldn't date before college, and he hadn't expressed his love for her.
Besides feeling embarrassed by He Junlin's interference today, he also realized a serious problem.
Yufei seems to treat him completely like a younger brother, which won't do! Cui Yu'an knows that once a relationship is established, it's hard to change.
He really needs to think carefully about what to do.
On the other side, Yufei returned to her room and shook her head, which was filled with complicated thoughts.
Once inside the space, how should she make her Dragon Abyss Town have its own unique characteristics in winter?
In a flash, I found myself in a space where it was winter all year round, a world of ice and snow.
The flowers here are crystal-clear ice flowers, like hand-carved glass works of art, yet they also exude a cool, delicate fragrance.
This tree is composed of plum trees, pine trees, and ice trees, and is covered with frost.
It felt like stepping into a fairytale world of ice and snow. Yufei even thought it would be perfect if there were Elsa's castle from an animated film she'd seen in a past life.
Besides these, there are many other animals living in this world.
Snow foxes, snow rabbits, snow leopards, polar bears, and so on—these were all collected by the government for Yufei, and now they live leisurely in this world.
"Xiao Jun, what do you think I should do to decorate Longyuan Town in winter? Something with a unique style would be best."
Yufei stroked her chin, pretending to think, and asked...
"Little master~ If you want something special, you can choose ice flowers and cold plum blossoms. The combination of white and red has a kind of desolate beauty."
Furthermore, you can use plum blossoms to make plum blossom wine, which is refreshing, sweet, and delicious!
Then, use plum blossoms, plum bark, and cypress flowers to make a cooling incense. One stick can cool a 50-square-meter room in summer, and it also has a light fragrance.
The origin of the name "Leng Linghua" is difficult to explain.
"Don't worry about that. I've thought it through. If it's something that doesn't exist on Earth, I'll just say it was discovered in the mecha world if anyone asks."
It just so happens that I spent some time alone in that forest teeming with mutated animals and plants, and I can use that to explain the strange things in my hands.”
"Good that you've made up your mind," Xiao Jun nodded and continued, "As for the animal... this butterfly is quite nice."
A translucent butterfly rested on Xiao Jun's fingertip, its wings shimmering with starlight-like spots.
The butterfly's wings fluttered slightly, scattering tiny ice crystals that made a soft, crisp sound—it was quite pleasant to hear.
Yufei's eyes sparkled as she looked at the butterfly in Xiaojun's hand, and her hand unconsciously reached out to touch it.
So cold! A chill ran through Yufei's fingertips as her hand touched the butterfly.
Yes, beautiful things always have thorns.
"These butterflies are beautiful, but there are many butterfly collectors on Earth. As for the fireflies I caught in the summer, if someone wanted to catch them, they'd need to catch quite a few to make a nice melody."
Otherwise, it would be useless. But catching many fireflies would be a big operation that would quickly become known to us and make it easier for us to observe them.
But if one of these ice butterflies is lost, it won't be noticeable. Won't there be a lot of people stealing ice butterflies?
Yufei touched the ice butterfly again and asked worriedly.
