Chapter 1016: Chapter 53 Yun Jin Also Needs Encouragent_2
Mr. Su forcefully opened the door, with a warm and gentle smile typical of a middle-aged man on his face, nodding to Yan Yu and saying:
“We’ve finished talking with Yun Jin, we won’t disturb your conversation any longer.”
“Uh…” Yan Yu was also a bit confused, feeling like he was the one interrupting their family reunion. “Actually, I just wanted to ask Yun Jin how her preparation for crossing the tribulation is going…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Mrs. Su had already slung her bag over her shoulder, smiling broadly, “We didn’t really have anything important, just wanted to see her… Captain Yan, Yun Jin is our only daughter, we’ve spoiled her since she was a child, so she may not understand many things. We’ll have to trouble you to take care of her from now on…”
Clearly inexperienced in flattering others, she humbled herself too much, not at all like an elder, which made Yan Yu feel peculiarly upended. Glancing at Yun Jin who seed desperate to bury herself through the floor, he quickly interrupted Mrs. Su’s complint, smiling as he said:
“It’s fine, it’s fine, we’re in the sa team, we must take care of each other. Take care, uncle and auntie. Yun Jin will definitely do well in her tribulation, you can look forward to her good news.”
Mr. and Mrs. Su left quickly. Yan Yu withdrew his gaze and saw Su Yunjin sitting on the edge of the bed, looking completely dazed and pale.
He gently closed the door and said with a smile:
“Your parents are quite polite.”
“Don’t ntion it.” Su Yunjin replied with empty eyes, “Captain, you have no idea what they just said to .”
“Oh, what did they say?” Yan Yu asked curiously.
Su Yunjin quickly glanced at his expression and saw that he showed no hint of amusent or teasing, so she was sure Yan Yu had just arrived (and not eavesdropped at the door for a while), and then she smiled again, saying:
“Nothing much, just gossiping about my relationship with you.”
“Oh.” Yan Yu thought that was quite normal, after all, Yun Jin had admitted to her family long ago that she liked him, so her parents’ concern was understandable.
“By the way, Captain,” Su Yunjin looked out the window, seemingly asking casually, “do you like children?”
“Why ask that all of a sudden?” Yan Yu asked in surprise.
“Because I like children very much,” Su Yunjin said with a smile. “I am an only child, and I always wanted a younger sibling, but my parents didn’t want to have a second child.”
“They gave all their love to you.” Yan Yu responded smoothly.
“What about you?” Su Yunjin imdiately countered, “How much of all your love is reserved for ?”
Yan Yu was at a loss for words, realizing that Su Yunjin’s wit was sharp, it was better not to play word gas with her in the future.
Seeing the Captain staying silent, Su Yunjin wondered if she was being too confrontational again. She quickly softened her tone and said gently:
“I’m not demanding more love. I just… I want to tell you that, compared to being loved, what I care more about is the person I love. For instance, you. Or, if we have the chance to have children in the future…”
She spoke so euphemistically that Yan Yu felt a bit of a headache and answered directly:
“For most people, children are the continuation of their lives. But for cultivators, our greatly extended lifespans actually reduce our motivation to reproduce. But I don’t dislike children. If you want, we can try to have one… once the international situation fully stabilizes.”
Hearing his clear willingness to have children, Su Yunjin finally felt relieved, thinking that for cultivators, having and raising children is much easier than for ordinary people. With strong bodies and hardly any pain in childbirth; financial freedom to hire help for daily chores; the only obstacle being mutual motivation.
However…
Darn it! It’s all because my mom made remarks about “premarital pregnancy” that got tangled up in thoughts about having children!
Suppressing all distracting thoughts, Su Yunjin resud her bright and gentle smile, asking:
“Captain, you ca to ask about my preparation for crossing the tribulation, right?”
“Yes.” Yan Yu thought it was a relief to steer back to the main topic, or else if she asked how many kids, he wouldn’t be able to give an answer. “Actually, your True Yuan is abundant, and the Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Art is extrely effective in dealing with heavenly tribulations. I have great confidence in you. However, crossing the tribulation requires both solid skills and a good ntal state. If you have any concerns, confusion, or uncertainties, let know before the tribulation, and I’ll help solve them as much as I can.”
“Yes, I do have a question.” Su Yunjin smiled, “What did Ruoxi do in the room before her tribulation?”
Yan Yu suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back, but he kept his composure and said:
“You an that, haha…”
After laughing a few tis and thinking of how to respond, he continued, “Her ntal state was too unstable. I was afraid she would ss up during the tribulation and only be able to perform at thirty or forty percent of her true strength… You know, Yun Jin, that’s just her personality. So I cheered her up.”
“Oh oh.” Su Yunjin asked further, “What exactly were the cheers and encouragent? I’m a bit curious.”
“This…”
“After finishing her tribulation, Ruoxi declined the dical team’s examination and went straight back to the base to bathe and change clothes. Did you know that?” Su Yunjin continued to ask.
“Haha, I didn’t know.” Yan Yu forced a smile and said, “I was called to Pingjing by the Lord Master at that ti.”
“The Captain didn’t know.” Su Yunjin smiled. “Seems like a misunderstanding. Ling Yun told … never mind, it’s just speculation. Anyway, it’s fortunate that Ruoxi was safe in the end.”
She adorably put her hands together in an Amitabha, Bodhisattva blessing gesture, but Yan Yu inexplicably felt the imnse and imdiate pressure behind her delicate smile, as if she might tear him apart at any mont.
Yan Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked:
“Yun Jin, how’s your ntal preparation for the tribulation? Would you like to cheer you on too?”
“Oh, the sa kind of cheering as for Ruoxi?” Su Yunjin blinked her eyes, her face showing a slight blush, but quickly nodded and said, “Of course, Ningning always says the Captain should treat everyone equally. And I too am curious, how you cheered Ruoxi on back then.”
“Ah, there’s an art to cheering.” Yan Yu then put his arm around her fragrant shoulder. “First of all, the danger of heavenly tribulations is undeniable. Simply downplaying its threat is obviously unconvincing and less effective.”
“Indeed,” Su Yunjin nodded.
“So, a better thod is to divert your attention.”
“How do you plan to divert my attention?” Su Yunjin asked seriously.
“By engaging in sothing else, ideally sothing that clears your mind and completely absorbs you,” Yan Yu said slowly, “like sitting in ditation or visualizing oneself…”
Seeing him beating around the bush and refusing to get to the point, Su Yunjin got a little irritated. With a light hand, she fished him out:
“Or like this?”
Yan Yu: ……
“Why aren’t you talking?” Su Yunjin asked with a smile.
“Shh, don’t make a sound,” Yan Yu remained composed, raising a finger to his lips, signaling her to keep quiet, “Can you hear it? It’s talking.”
“What?” Su Yunjin asked in surprise, still holding on tightly.
“It says, it’s ready.” Yan Yu said.
Su Yunjin was slightly stunned, and in the next mont, her world spun. She instinctively tried to resist, but soon her limbs were filled with a sense of happiness erging from her chest, turning limp and weak.
