“Ze Ran, Ze Ran, Ze Ran…”

“Ze Ran.” A soft voice called out. Ze Ran turned around and immediately frowned. “It’s so cold at night. Why are you out? Go in quickly.”

Miss Hei chuckled and walked quickly before sitting down. She wrapped her arms around Ze Ran’s arm. “I’m not cold. I won’t be cold with you here.”

“No, go in.” Ze Ran was about to get up, but Miss Hei exerted her strength. “Ze Ran, can you sit with me?”

“Let’s sit inside.”

Miss Hei raised her head and looked at Ze Ran pitifully. “Just for a while, okay? Don’t kick me in.” Her amber eyes glittered beautifully under the night sky. Ze Ran inexplicably blushed and turned around. “Up to you.”

“Hehe.” Miss Hei held his arm even tighter and her warm body also leaned against him. Ze Ran frowned slightly, but didn’t push her away. Their shadows intertwined tightly. “Ze Ran, look at how beautiful the moon is.”

Miss Hei raised her head, and so did Ze Ran. “Such moonlight is truly rare. I’ve only seen such moonlight twice. One time was now, and the other time was when I met you.”

Ze Ran’s muscles stiffened. Miss Hei chuckled. “I know you must hate me and wish you hadn’t seen me, don’t you?”

Ze Ran didn’t say anything. Miss Hei continued, “Even though you hate me, I… really like you.”

“…What exactly do you like about me? We only met once. How can you like me?”

A smile bloomed. “I don’t know what I like about you, but I know that I like you. Even though you’re a human being, I don’t care… I don’t want to let you go. I don’t want you to leave my world…”

“So, you used that method?” Ze Ran’s tone was slightly cold. Miss Hei smiled wryly. “I’m selfish. Even if you’ve never forgotten her and I’m not the one you love, I’ve never regretted it!”

Ze Ran was stunned. “…Loving someone doesn’t mean owning them.”

“For Magic Beasts, they must take what they like for themselves! Only by taking it can they declare their ownership!” Light flashed through her amber eyes. “I’m a Magic Beast. I must claim the person I like! Make him mine!”

Ze Ran was silent. Miss Hei held his arm even tighter. “But I understand now that possession isn’t forever. Owning you isn’t having you. What I want isn’t to own you, but to have you…” Ze Ran’s thin lips moved slightly and he didn’t know what to say.

“I know you have someone you like, but I’ve never thought about how you like and chase after her. Ze Ran, if time could be reversed, I would rather choose to be like you. You know you can’t catch up with her and you can’t get her, but you still chase after her silently and follow behind her… Just to see her happy.”

Something blocked Ze Ran’s heart fiercely. He held his arms even tighter, as if he was exerting all his strength.

“I want to have you. I want to have your heart, even if it’s just for a day or a moment! I can exist in your heart and you can look at me with your eyes… Humans aren’t as fragile as Magic Beasts think. Human hearts… are strong and beautiful.”

Ze Ran looked up at the starry sky and listened quietly. This was the first time he listened to her calmly and also the first time he truly felt her feelings for him.

“You…” Ze Ran was shocked. Miss Hei let go of her arm and stood up. “After giving birth, I’ll return to my clan. I can’t take this child back. You’ll have to take care of it.”

Miss Hei shook her head with a smile. “Don’t worry. They won’t do anything to me. I’ll be fine.”

“But…”

Miss Hei chuckled. “Don’t worry. I’ll never come out after I go back this time. I’ll stay in the clan forever and never disturb your life again…”

“But you’ll miss your child, right?” Ze Ran said. He was inexplicably anxious in his mind. He didn’t know why he was anxious. He was just anxious!

“Once I go back, I’ll never come out again.” Miss Hei whispered and then smiled. “After I go back to the clan, you don’t have to tell the child my identity. Just let them think that I’m a human being… That’s good.”

Ze Ran’s black eyes glittered and his heart trembled fiercely! “I won’t hide your identity! I’ll tell this child that their mother is a Magic Beast!”

Miss Hei was stunned for a moment. Then, she chuckled. “I’m a bit tired. I’ll go rest first.”

Ze Ran still wanted to say something, but Miss Hei had already gone in and closed the door. Ze Ran looked at the closed door in a daze as an inexplicable emotion surged in the bottom of his heart. She was going to let him go. Wasn’t this what he had always wanted? His wish was about to be fulfilled right now. He should be happy and feel relaxed. Why… did he feel inexplicably disappointed and even angry?

“Damn it!” Ze Ran cursed furiously as he flashed out of the wooden house. Behind the closed door of the wooden house, Miss Hei sat on the ground as hot tears fell silently. This way… he could continue to chase after that person. This way… he could continue to be happy.

In the following days, a silent wall seemed to have been erected between the two of them. Miss Hei didn’t pester Ze Ran anymore. Logically speaking, Ze Ran should be more relaxed, but the more she was like this, the more irritable he became. The more she was like this, the darker the clouds on his face became.

Finally, it was time to give birth. Early in the morning, Miss Hei closed the door tightly and warned Ze Ran not to come in until sunset. If anything happened and the child in her belly was hurt, she wouldn’t let him go! Ze Ran said nothing with a gloomy face. Ever since the door closed, Ze Ran had been sitting outside and waiting.
