Tong Yan had never experienced such a quiet time before. She slowly closed her eyes and lay down on the grass.

The soft touch came from under the body, which was very comfortable. The grass swayed in the wind and slid back and forth on the child's skin, which was a little itchy.

Tong Yan's little hand slowly groped on the grass, and soon she touched Mandrill's arm. She stretched out her index finger and poked it gently.

"teacher."

"Um."

Listening to Mandrill's slightly dull voice, Tong Yan determined the distance between the two at this moment. She leaned on the grass and turned sideways. Because it was very dark, she couldn't see anything, so her movements were a little too big. She was pretty

The curve just fits Mandrill's arm.

Feeling the warm and soft touch on his arm, Mandrill stiffened and did not dare to move at all, for fear that he would make some movement that would misunderstand Tong Yan.

Feeling Mandrill's stiff movements, Tong Yan let out a gentle chuckle in Mandrill's ear.

Mandrill is an immortal with a long life and rich experiences.

Those experiences can be divided into many moments.

Before meeting the King of Rocks, Mandrill was a Yaksha, struggling in the darkness.

After meeting the King of Rocks, Mandrill is an immortal, guarding him in the darkness.

Before meeting An Chun, Mandrill was a solitary person, taciturn and did not like contact with humans.

After meeting An Chun, Mandrill was no longer alone or taciturn, and tried to integrate into Liyue.

An Chun changed Mandrill, allowing Mandrill to gradually understand human emotions.

So during the time when An Chun had just left, Mandrill returned to his original life.

He went to the depths of the abyss with a single shot of immortality, and was seriously injured.

After that, Mandrill understood that pain could not change anything.

An Chun will not come back, but he still has to fulfill his contract with the Rock King and continue to live a long life.

After An Chun left, Mandrill thought that he would never change again, until he met Tong Yan.

That familiar feeling, like an old acquaintance, made Mandrill no longer able to suppress the emotions buried deep in his heart.

Mandrill fell in love with An Chun.

Her face looks like An Chun, but she is not An Chun after all.

Become Tong Yan’s teacher and protect her as she gradually becomes stronger.

The more you like it, the more you regret it.

Perhaps everything Mandrill is doing now is just to make up for the regrets left with An Chun.

The deeper the regret, the more indulgent and pampering Mandrill will be towards Tong Yan.

Mandrill will never leave Tong Yan.

What happened to An Chun will not happen to Tong Yan.

Mandrill lay down on the grass and spread his hands.

Tong Yan felt that the grass beside her was being lowered, gently stroking her long hair and ears.

At this moment, Tong Yan felt that Mandrill seemed to have let go of everything.

Tong Yan whispered: "Teacher...?"

"You are not An Chun."

The sudden opening of the chat box made Tong Yan a little confused. She didn't understand why Mandrill said An Chun's name at this moment, and came to such a conclusion that made Tong Yan think deeply.

While thinking, Mandrill's calm voice sounded again.

"You are who you are."

Mandrill's voice was obviously not loud, but it sounded full of power to Tong Yan, which shocked her.

Tong Yan had already figured out the past life and this life not long ago.

But now, Mandrill indirectly confirmed Tong Yan's idea.

If the mission had not failed, Tong Yan would have even thought that Mandrill knew her true identity.

Suddenly, Tong Yan understood what Mandrill wanted to express in these two sentences.

Then the whole person relaxed, and Tong Yan spread his hands and rolled twice on the grass.

"Teacher, after An Chun left, did you often come here alone?"

"Um."

Mandrill's voice was very pleasant, and Tong Yan felt inexplicably happy after hearing it. She hugged Mandrill's arm.

"Then we are two people now."
