Solitude was a part of his life. It was something that he had been used to after centuries of living in the moon realm, it was natural—and yet deep inside of him, he had always been in need of affection and attention far more than he'd like to admit. The long silver-haired man found himself outside of the mansion of the Shen main family but still within the boundaries of their location…
He had the entire 'front yard', spanning as far as his eyes could see, it already included the forest, its dense and lush foliage and other flora and vegetation for him to enjoy and bask in. The warm glow of the sun shone down around him and the vicinity as if he was in some spiritual place that was only meant for him.
And somehow it felt like that, the only thing that was out of place was the grand house behind him where but one person dwelled. Shen Jie Li was once again busy with his tasks and though Xue would have wished for company, it wasn't that man they would approach.
