Chapter 1208 - A Secret Taken to the Grave (1/2)

Chun Yin held onto Jinde, even tightening his grasp on him. He reached up, his fingers grabbing onto the thick golden hair. He took a deep breath, tears gathering in his eyes. He would never tell Jinde but the last few years of his life had been miserable. He had missed him. He had missed him more than words could say. If he got the chance to do a once-over, he would take it in a heartbeat.

This person … he loved him more than anything. Unfortunately, he couldn't change anything. He had to make his peace with the fact that it was already over. This wasn't a second chance for him, it was only a chance to say his goodbyes. A chance for a last farewell, for making up for a few of the things that he had put him through.

He knew he couldn't ask for more but, of course, he gladly would have taken some more time. He longed to finally be Jinde's lover for once. The person at his side. It was a pity that he would never have that chance.

He continued to hold onto Jinde, thinking back to all the times he had hugged him like this in the past.

Jinde was a little stiff at first but finally hugged him back, closing his eyes. He didn't know what to say at this moment. Once again, he felt deeply that this was actually his husband's body and that only Chun Yin's soul had currently taken over. Hugging him … didn't give him the sense of actually holding Chun Yin. Instead, it made him think of his current husband instead. To him, even though Chun Yin was actually right in front of him, he was only someone from his past.

He reached up, wrapping one arm around his neck, and secretly wiped his eyes.

Chun Yin couldn't help but chuckle. ”You know, you can still cry after I'm gone.”

”And make my husband worry for me? I'd rather he not see this.”

Chun Yin interlaced his fingers behind Jinde's back and smiled. ”I wonder if I would have gotten the same consideration.”

Jinde smiled. ”I don't think so. In any case, what other lover would you be worried about? There was no one. Never.”

Chun Yin lightly tilted his head but only saw those waves of golden hair. Combing through them, he smiled to himself. ”Are you sure about that? You know, you can tell that new husband of yours a lot. He isn't of the immortal races, he doesn't know that much yet. It's not strange that there are some things that he wouldn't be able to understand. Just getting back a few of his memories … I think I actually see a bit more than he does.”
