Chapter 112 Waiting
Chapter 112 Waiting
The wait was long, because scientific research wasn't as simple as one might imagine; it required countless experiments. It was a bit boring to be here, but fortunately, she had nothing to do. Lingyue often sat leisurely in the rocking chair she had made from Wood Release, basking in the sun. The Warring States era lacked any traces of excessive technology, so the air was especially fresh. Basking in the sun in the courtyard was undoubtedly the most comfortable experience, especially with Sasuke by her side. Lingyue's life was quite comfortable.
"Back where we are, we are often too busy to date. Now that we finally have some free time, we don't even know where to go. It's such a tiring life." Lingyue was leisurely drinking the juice made by Sasuke in the rocking chair.
"Enjoy it now. Once we get to our place, we won't be able to do this anymore." Sasuke wiped the juice from the corner of Lingyue's mouth lovingly.
"Yeah, it's so comfortable to sleep in until I wake up naturally every day..." Lingyue rocked up and down in the rocking chair. The chair made a "twig, twig" sound, but it didn't affect her comfortable mood at the moment. "The stars in the sky are silent, the dolls on the ground miss their mothers, the eyes in the sky blink, and my mother's heart is far away..." Lingyue hummed a song in a good mood. "Sasuke, you sit down too. Don't I have a rocking chair next to you?" Lingyue invited Sasuke to relax as well.
Sasuke glanced at the rocking chair. Lingyue had even invited him to sit down, so he took Lingyue's hand and rocked the chair rhythmically with Lingyue. The corners of his mouth raised slightly. This was a fantasy he had been pursuing in his previous life, but now it had finally come true. He really wished time could stop at this moment. Sasuke looked at Lingyue with affection, who had her eyes closed. "It's great that you're alive, and it's great that I'm still by your side. This is really, really, really good."
As if feeling Sasuke's gaze, Lingyue opened her eyes and turned her head to look at Sasuke, "Sasuke, what's wrong?" She looked very happy.
"That's great. I hope it'll always be like this." Sasuke just said this. He didn't want to disturb Lingyue's good mood and interest.
"Me too. It's a great day like tomorrow."
"Hey, dear, are you being so comfortable here? Are you worthy of your brother in another world?" Izunai couldn't help but retort.
"Uncle, you are a good person, why do you have a mouth?" This is definitely unsatisfied.
"My goodness, your cursing skills are getting better and better."
"It's yours, uncle."
"You, dear, you are becoming less and less cute."
"Being cute doesn't mean you can eat it." Lingyue gave Quannai an unkind look.
"Where did my simple and kind-hearted child go?" Izuna sighed.
"Here, being simple and kind will lead to a quick death, little uncle, do you hope..." Ling Yue didn't finish the rest of the sentence.
"Of course not." Quan Nai replied with a desire to survive. Otherwise, if his brother found out, even if he was his precious younger brother, he would definitely beat him to death.
"That's all right. Besides, I'm already an adult according to my age."
"Time flies so fast..." Izumi couldn't help but sigh at the passing of time.
"Where has the time gone? I've grown old before I could even begin to appreciate it..." Lingyue suddenly started singing this song.
"Go away, I'm not old yet." Izunai got angry when her age was mentioned.
"Uncle, I didn't say anything, why are you so anxious?" Lingyue looked at Quannai who was already furious with amusement.
"Be good, don't think I don't know what you are hinting at." Quan Nai seemed to feel that he had guessed Ling Yue's metaphor.
"What can I be alluding to? I just feel like time flies by... Hua Jian is already a father." Ling Yue took another sip of juice. "The air here is so nice. If it were peaceful outside, this would be perfect for retirement. Didn't Papa and Mama really choose this place on purpose?"
"I don't know about that. Didn't I already go to the Pure Land by then?"
"That's right, I forgot about that. I thought that little uncle was always by PAPA's side. It turns out that habit is a terrible thing."
"I felt the same way. I've lived for so long, and I thought I was always by my brother's side."
"So, little uncle, are you really willing to leave your uncle alone in the lab?"
"Isn't there another Tobirama? Those things are not my area of expertise. I'm better at dissecting corpses."
"Uncle, what you said is so disgusting." Ling Yue couldn't help but shudder at the thought.
"You talk as if you wouldn't touch a corpse." Quan Nai gave Ling Yue a cold look.
"But I basically don't dissect corpses. I only treat living people, not corpses."
"Many medical diseases are treated by researching the patients' bodies after they die."
"I know that, but I can revive them."
"Alright. You are the only one in the world who can possess such a heaven-defying ninjutsu."
"I wonder how PAPA and MAMA are doing? I haven't seen them for a long time, I miss them so much."
"I miss my brother too. Time and space ninjutsu is indeed a false proposition."
Lingyue rocked in her rocking chair, seemingly forgetting time for a moment. She looked up at the sky, a soothing blue, a rare cloudless day. If only she could feel that way, but the reality was they were still trapped in the ABO world, unable to find their way home. Although her two uncles were working tirelessly on their research, the wait was ultimately long. Missing her family sent a whirlwind of emotions through Lingyue. But to avoid worrying those around her, she tried to appear cheerful.
As Lingyue's lover, Sasuke certainly knew Lingyue's feelings. He also wanted to go back. His family members were finally around him. He could also form a new family with his loved ones and live a happy life. This was something he had never dared to imagine in his previous life. The feeling of Lingyue dying in his arms had not disappeared. When he woke up in the middle of the night, Sasuke would always stay at the door of Lingyue's room for a long time to make sure that Lingyue was still alive before he could go to sleep with peace of mind.
Ling Yue stretched out her hand to block the dazzling sunlight and grabbed at the air with her hand. "The sunlight is fair. No matter who you are, it can sprinkle every life fairly. Maybe the sunlight is the fairest thing in the world."
"Why are you suddenly saying this?" Sasuke turned his head to look at Lingyue.
"It's nothing, I just expressed my feelings." Ling Yue shook her head.
"You don't seem to be in good shape." Sasuke looked at Lingyue worriedly.
"It's okay, I'm just too idle." Ling Yue shrugged.
