How Ziran Jun's Mistake Tainted The Holy Ocean...

Ziran Jun being afraid of Leng Si Wang was an oddly familiar sight. It was eerily similar to the time when teenager Ren used to go out of his way to avoid him.

At formal gatherings, Ren would hide behind Griffin, his delicate frame peeking out nervously whenever their paths crossed.

At that time, Kade himself was trying to keep a distance from Ren, so he did not try to approach Ren. But now, there was no such need.

Thinking about all the time he had tried to stay away from the person he should have kept by his side, Kade laughed lightly.

He reached out with cold fingers, pinching the reddened earlobes of the trembling god in his arms.

Ren flinched at the sudden coldness. But he did not pull away.

"I know," Kade murmured. "But this liking is too small, Your Excellency."

One arm curled securely around Ren's waist, pulling him closer. Meanwhile, the other hand drifted to the nape of his slender neck.
