The dining room was brightly lit.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the night was pitch-black. From the waters beyond, one could faintly hear the death cries of a desperate struggle.
But all of it was kept at bay, unable to affect this island filled with flowerbeds and greenery.
The unease Yu Zhizhi had been feeling gradually dissipated.
It was as if the Mermaid Youth standing before her could shield her from all disaster and pain.
'Is it because of the power of the [Glacier]?'
'Or is it something else…'
Yu Zhizhi just felt an incredible sense of peace.
After Yusen finished speaking, Yu Zhizhi nodded lightly.
Perhaps because they were so close, Yu Zhizhi caught a faint, tantalizing scent from Yusen...
Like a sea demon, it was utterly bewitching.
She couldn't help but move closer.
Yu Zhizhi reached out and slowly wrapped her arms around the Mermaid Youth before her. She pressed her face against his chest, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"Hug..." she whispered.
