The lush greenery of the Ancient Shrine seems like a secluded paradise away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Here, Sakura and Night Fox—now transformed into a charming young man—live together, their understanding and rapport as deep as the ocean. Sakura, the gentle yet resolute guardian of the shrine, is well aware that exposing Night Fox's secret could cause unnecessary turmoil and even danger. Therefore, she does everything in her power to protect this secret, valuing it as dearly as her own life.
Living among humans in the form of a human, Night Fox gradually becomes accustomed to the local customs and practices. Not only does he possess unfathomable wisdom, but also a kind and pure heart. His presence breathes new life and vitality into this ancient shrine.
On a clear morning, Sakura was cleaning the courtyard of the shrine, while Night Fox was helping her on the side. Night Fox's movements seemed a bit awkward, but his eyes were filled with a desire to learn and explore.
"Sakura, the human world is truly complex and fascinating," Night Fox said softly, his voice gentle and charming.
Sakura looked up at him, her eyes sparkling with a smile. "Yes, every day is full of novelty."
Night Fox With a slight smile, his eyes shimmered with deep gratitude towards Sakura. "You have taught me a lot, Sakura. Here, I feel an unprecedented peace."
The two of them worked in a relaxed atmosphere, and their conversations were full of tacit understanding. Night Fox was not only learning how to be human, but also learning how to co-manage this small world with Xiao Ying.
However, Xiao Ying's abnormal behavior began to arouse the curiosity of the villagers, especially Feng Hua, Xiao Ying's childhood friend.
Feng Hua is a young shrine maiden with keen intuition and relentless curiosity. She always senses that there are hidden secrets behind Little Sakura's behavior, which fills her heart with confusion and a determination to find answers. As one of the guardians of the shrine, she believes that understanding these secrets is her responsibility, perhaps related to the sacred place they protect.
During a gentle dusk, Little Sakura and the incarnation of the young Night Fox were busy with the daily maintenance work in the shrine courtyard. Their tacit understanding and coordination seemed to indicate an unspoken understanding between them. Night Fox's techniques were both elegant and skilled, showing his deep love for these flowers and plants.
"Sakura, these flowers are truly beautiful," the voice of Night Fox was deep and full of emotion, as if paying tribute to the beauty of nature.
Sakura responded with a gentle smile, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Yes, they are like little spirits of the shrine, bringing endless vitality to this place. Each flower has its own unique story."
Hidden behind the bushes, Feng Hua observed the scene intently. Watching the interaction between Little Sakura and this mysterious young man, her mind was filled with questions and curiosity. "Who is this young man? What kind of connection does he have with Little Sakura?" Feng Hua pondered silently.
Feng Hua decided to remain hidden for the time being, not wanting to be discovered. She wanted to delve deeper into the relationship between this mysterious young man and Little Sakura. Her intuition told her that there must be a significant secret hidden behind it.
As night fell, Sakura and Night Fox Youth entered the shrine together. Taking advantage of the night, Feng Hua quietly left, feeling increasingly puzzled and curious.
The next day, Feng Hua returned to the vicinity of the shrine. She hid in a place not easily discovered, observing every move of Sakura and Night Fox Youth. She noticed their intimate interaction and the unusual atmosphere between them, which further convinced her that Sakura was hiding a secret.
While observing Feng Hua, an old man passed by the shrine. The old man's eyes were filled with a wise light, and he seemed to notice the presence of Feng Hua. He approached Feng Hua and softly asked, "Young lady, what are you doing here?"
Feng Hua was startled and quickly stood up. "Oh, I'm just here for a walk."
The old man smiled and looked at her. "You seem very curious about the things in the shrine."
Feng Hua hesitated for a moment, then decided to confess her doubts to the old man. "Yes, I have a friend who lives in the shrine, and her recent behavior has left me puzzled."
The old man nodded after listening. "Everyone has their own secrets, sometimes these secrets are to protect themselves or others. Perhaps your friend has her own reasons."
Feng Hua fell silent. As a shrine maiden, she had always been guarding this sacred place together with Little Sakura. She not only had a deep friendship with Little Sakura, but also held a special kind of affection. Towards the mysterious and gentle man who appeared by Little Sakura's side, Feng Hua felt a hint of unwillingness and jealousy.
She couldn't understand why Little Sakura would be so intimate with this man, and at the same time, her heart was full of curiosity, wanting to uncover the secret behind it. Feng Hua decided that even if she couldn't immediately discover the truth, she would remain vigilant to ensure that the shrine would not be endangered by this mysterious man.
Night fell again, and Feng Hua stood outside the shrine, gazing at the light inside. Her heart was filled with complex emotions - friendship, worry, jealousy, and incomprehension intertwined. She couldn't let these emotions affect her duties as a shrine maiden.
Feng Hua has decided that from tonight onwards, she will pay even more attention to the every move of both Sakura and the mysterious man. She wants to ensure the safety of the shrine and also protect another shrine maiden from any threats.
Several days have passed, but Feng Hua's observations have not yielded any breakthroughs. The lives of Sakura and Night Fox Youth seem very peaceful, without any abnormalities. Feng Hua begins to question whether her suspicions are unfounded, perhaps Sakura is truly just enjoying an ordinary life.
However, deep inside, Feng Hua still felt a hint of unease. She decided to give herself some more time, and if she still didn't find anything unusual, she would let go of this unnecessary worry and return to her normal life.
On a quiet night, Feng Hua sat alone on the stone steps of the shrine, gazing at the starry night sky.
On that quiet night, Feng Hua sat on the stone steps, her eyes wandering among the stars, but her thoughts were in a distant and profound place. She recalled the various experiences with Xiao Ying, the laughter and tears of those innocent years, and the little things they shared while guarding the shrine. And now, everything seemed different because of this mysterious Night Fox Youth.
As Feng Hua was lost in thought, suddenly, a slight sound interrupted her. She looked alertly in the direction of the sound and saw a fox quietly emerging from the woods. Feng Hua was startled; the fox's eyes seemed different, with a mysterious and profound light.
Feng Hua remembered that Sakura had mentioned the story of Night Fox, and she couldn't help but start to suspect that this fox had some kind of connection to Night Fox. She cautiously approached the fox, trying to establish some form of communication with it.
The fox seemed to sense Feng Hua's goodwill and did not run away, but instead slowly walked towards her. Feng Hua softly said to the fox, "Are you from that unknown world? Do you know the secret between Night Fox and Sakura?"
The fox made no sound, but its eyes seemed to speak. It gently shook its head, then turned and walked towards the direction of the shrine. Feng Hua followed the fox, filled with curiosity and anticipation. She felt that the fox might lead her to uncover the mysterious veil.
As they approached the shrine, the fox suddenly stopped, turned, and looked at Feng Hua. In that moment, Feng Hua felt a strange connection, as if the fox was conveying an important message to her. The fox's eyes were filled with deep sadness and warning, as if reminding her that some secrets should not be uncovered.
Feng Hua was suddenly shocked, and she suddenly understood some things. Perhaps her curiosity about Xiao Ying and Night Fox Youth was not just out of concern for the safety of the shrine, but stemmed from her own deep-seated unease and jealousy. She began to question her motives, whether she was truly acting for the benefit of the shrine.
On this starry night, Feng Hua felt a hint of loneliness and confusion. She realized that sometimes, the truth may not be as she imagined, and her suspicions of Xiao Ying might just be emotions she was unwilling to accept in her heart.
The fox turned around again and disappeared into the night, leaving Feng Hua alone on the stone steps of the shrine, filled with complex emotions. She realized that she needed to reexamine her relationship with Little Sakura and Night Fox, as well as her role as a shrine maiden.
As the night grew quiet, Feng Hua returned to the interior of the shrine, her steps light and hesitant. She walked to the door of Little Sakura and Night Fox's room and listened quietly to the sounds inside. She could hear Little Sakura's laughter and Night Fox's gentle words, which filled her heart with a hint of bitterness.
On the way back to her room, Feng Hua was filled with various emotions. She felt a hint of loss.
Lying in bed, Feng Hua looked at the starry sky outside the window, and her mind gradually calmed down.
