Chapter 1246: The One Who Longed for It Can't Be Compensated
The phrase that I was going to join in immediately made Serena have a look of surprise and even disbelief on her face.
For her, Zhou Yi has been silent for too long. It's been so long that even she doesn't believe it, and Zhou Yi is still willing to stand up again. Although her loyalty to Zhou Yi will not change in any way because of Zhou Yi's silence, it does not mean that she is unwilling to see the day when Zhou Yi stands up again.
For her, King Ming, who stands up to the sky, is Zhou Yi's most brilliant image, and only such a great incarnation is the most amazing existence in her mind. Now, this most glorious existence in her mind is finally about to reappear in front of her eyes again, which of course makes her heart can't help but stir.
"Master, take me. If you really want to reappear in the world, then I am willing to be your arm, the sword in your hand, and give my all my strength to your every command. ”
This is a bit ridiculous, because in today's world it is difficult to find anyone who would show their loyalty in such a way. However, such words appeared in Serena's body, but they were not ridiculous at all. Because Zhou Yi knows very well that Selina herself is just such a person.
She was a vampire, a vampire who had followed ancient dogmas for centuries. Loyalty is a very important word in her life force, and it can be said that this kind of thing has become her mission, and it is carried out in every bit of her flesh and soul.
It's just that unlike the past few hundred years, in the past, she was loyal to her own family, and she was the elder in her family who gave her a new life. And now she is loyal to Zhou Yi, the god and supreme who gave her a second life. She gave him her loyalty, and she gave him her life and everything. And in such a situation, even if Zhou Yi asked her to die, she would be willing. So let alone going to the soup for Zhou Yi's instructions.
She is serious, Zhou Yi understands this. So he just smiled and said to Serena.
"Okay, since you have such an idea, then let's work together. I think that those Indians must be grateful to be saved by the goddess of the moonlight. After all, the appearance of a living goddess in front of them was much more shocking than those indifferent wood and stone statues. ”
There is an element of ridicule in this sentence, but it is more of an identification with Serena. Zhou Yi didn't have many cronies at hand, and it was just one case of someone like Serena who would do her best for one of her orders. Such a special case is enough to make Zhou Yi become close to him, and this closeness naturally makes Serena, who is looking forward to Zhou Yi in her heart, happy.
Longing is originally a kind of mysterious feeling, it is far from reality, but it can make people burst out of infinite power in their hearts. In this world, how many people have been crazy when they are young, and how many people have spared anything for what they love. Although many times they themselves know that what they are pursuing is just a flower in the mirror. But sometimes when the heart is moved, it is when you can't control yourself.
And Serena is like this, she is willing to stand by Zhou Yi's side all the time because of her longing. Just like Icarus in ancient Greek mythology, he knew that his wings were made of wax, but he still wanted to fly towards the sun. Not for anything else, but to touch the splendor of the sun one step closer.
Serena wants to be Zhou Yi's Icarus, and wants to stand by his side and be a foil to his light. So immediately, she replied to Zhou Yi like this.
"The light of the moon comes from the sun, and my light comes entirely from you. The gratitude of those mortals is nothing more than a blind pursuit of appearances. I am willing to worship everything before you if you will. ”
What mortals think of themselves, Serena doesn't care at all. Even if those people prayed and worshipped, it couldn't compare to Zhou Yi's recognition for her. She abandoned everything as if she were a shoe, but she was a treasure for Zhou Yi's reward. Just like she said herself, if Zhou Yi wants, she can give everything she has.
It's easy to say, but there are very few people who can do it. After all, this is the gap between reality and ideals. Zhou Yi also understands this, so he naturally looks at Serena more differently. Because he knew that although he could easily create another Serena, the goddess of moonlight. But it will be like her, who takes longing as the starting point and does whatever it takes to be loyal to herself. I'm afraid I won't be able to find a second one.
This can be regarded as a little compensation that fate has made up for after giving him merciless mockery and great betrayal.
"No, compared to the boring worship of those mortals, I would rather see a heroic and radiant goddess of the moon. Because as far as I'm concerned, it's like a work of art that I carved out with my own hands. Sometimes, if you fantasize about yourself as an artist, the praise for your most satisfying work will be much more weighty than the praise you will receive. ”
If you are another person, if you hear someone say that you are a work of art carved by him, even if you are close to someone, it is inevitable that there will be a little estrangement in your heart. Because this is a world of human rights and freedoms, in the eyes of modern people, who have become accustomed to labels such as freedom, individuality, etc., they belong only to themselves. If someone has to force them with such a symbol, then it is disrespecting themselves and tearing their faces with themselves.
But Serena didn't have such an idea, partly because she wasn't a modern person herself, and she still had the retro concept of the Middle Ages in her head. On the other hand, she doesn't think there's anything wrong with being called a work of art by Zhou Yi that she carved herself.
even said that when Zhou Yi said that she was her most perfect work, she still felt a little happy in her heart. It would have been an honor for her to be able to say such things to an existence that she longed for the most. And when she kept this sense of honor firmly in her heart, she couldn't help but have a charming smile on her face.
The moon is cold, and at this point, Serena is the same as it. She is like a beauty made of ice, and when she stands there, she always gives people a sense of sacredness that can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be blasphemed. However, when she smiled, it directly made the ice civilized, and even hard-hearted people couldn't help but be intoxicated.
Zhou Yi is the same, when Serena laughs, he can't help but be excited. Because for him, Serena is really a somewhat special existence. When he was young and frivolous, he was also lost for a while. And during that time, he had a lot of special entanglements with this cold goddess.
This entanglement was nothing at the time, but now, it always makes Zhou Yi feel like a thief. And the reason why I feel this way is mainly because of Serena's difference.
At that time, he had not only been entangled with Serena, but also with another woman. But that woman is different, that woman has her own desires, for power, for other things. Zhou Yi can satisfy her desire, so it is more like a transaction, and the delivery on both sides is clear, so naturally the two are not *** clean.
But Serena is different, she is too cold and has no desires. And beneath this cold appearance, there is a kind of stubborn burning, a kind of firm sincerity. In such a situation, even if Zhou Yi wanted to make up for her by trading, he couldn't come up with the bargaining chips that could be traded. Because at any time, true feelings can never be measured by material, even if he has such a high status as a god.
Achieving her identity as the goddess of the moonlight, she has changed from a vampire who can only hide in the dark to a goddess who is in the limelight and high. Looking at it this way, it seems that Zhou Yi did open a huge bargaining chip to make up for his debt to Serena. But this statement may be true for others, but not necessarily for Serena.
Serena may be grateful to Zhou Yi for giving her the opportunity to return to the light, but she will never feel how much she has earned because of her status as a goddess. It's not that she's not greedy enough, it's because she doesn't care about it at all. And Zhou Yi also knows Serena's temperament, so he won't use it as a bargaining chip for the transaction.
The so-called transaction itself can only be established if both parties agree on this value. Now the other side doesn't think it's a valuable existence at all, so what can he do about wishful thinking?
So he never mentioned such a thing, and this naturally made him a little embarrassed in front of such a Serena. And in order to cover up such embarrassment, Zhou Yi had an idea and diverted the topic.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet. Why did you come back all of a sudden, could it be that something happened to Washington that made you a little unable to sit still? ”
"No, I heard that you have a child, and I made a special trip back to give a gift. Also, Stark heard the news, and he asked me to bring him a copy as well. I have already delivered the gift to the little princess's room, I hope she will like it in the future. ”
"You've got a heart." Suddenly hearing Tony's news, Zhou Yi's heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. With their original relationship, he should be his most important guest today. But creation is impermanent, and now he is not even qualified to meet with himself. Who is to blame for this? No one can blame it, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame fate.
He knew this very well, and he could only sigh in such a situation, and then through Serena's mouth, he explored Tony's recent good and bad.
"How is he lately, he should be a little anxious about coming to India."
