450: The forgotten woman

“That’s not what I was talking about at all! It’s about… about what you did to me in my palace!”

Hua Mengjie’s pretty face was flushed, whether from shyness or anger, and she stared at Chen Xuan with wide, beautiful eyes, a gaze that seemed capable of spitting fire.

“Huh? Palace? What about the palace?” Chen Xuan played dumb.

“Hmph, don’t play innocent! I’ll tell you the truth, even though I’ve recovered now, I can still play… like that with you!

But why did you have to choose a time when I wasn’t thinking clearly, making me stick to that big door like an idiot and talk to Li Qingfeng?!” The more Hua Mengjie spoke, the more agitated she became, her voice unconsciously rising by eight octaves.

“Do you really just like seeing me emotionally broken and heartbroken? Is that the only way to satisfy your… evil psychological needs?!”

Hua Mengjie’s delicate body trembled slightly, and tears shimmered in her eyes.

Clearly, she was very disappointed with her behavior in the outside world; she had clearly said she would personally kill Li Qingfeng, but once outside, she became…

And Chen Xuan was also a scoundrel; no matter what, she was his… and he still bullied people like that! How could she not feel wronged!

Thinking of this, she grew angrier and angrier. The next moment, she flashed, darting towards Chen Xuan like a bolt of lightning.

She used the ultimate move that Chen Xuan had mentioned to her during their interactions—the Deadly Scissor Kick!

Instantly, her pair of long, straight jade legs clamped fiercely around Chen Xuan’s neck like two sharp scissors.

Chen Xuan, clamped, felt his breath catch, but his expression remained unchanged.

If he was angry, he was angry; there was no need to reward himself.

However, Hua Mengjie was still in a fit of pique, so it was best not to let her have any additional emotions.

“Cough, cough, cough! Your disciple is still here, stop it, stop it!”

“My disciple? You… you scoundrel! You even went after my disciple!! Watch how I teach you a lesson!” Hua Mengjie’s delicate body trembled with rage at his words, her beautiful eyes wide as she glared at Chen Xuan.

The next moment, she clenched her small pink fists, poised to punch Chen Xuan.

“No, sister, I’m serious! If you don’t stop, I’m afraid she’ll be in danger!”

At these words, Hua Mengjie’s movements stopped.

However, she still looked at Chen Xuan with a suspicious expression, her eyes full of doubt and distrust. After a long while, she slowly opened her mouth and asked, “Are you sure you’re not lying to me?”

“Truer than pure gold!” Chen Xuan nodded without hesitation. Immediately after, he pulled out the seed from his Pregnant and gently handed it to Hua Mengjie.

Hua Mengjie looked at the seed doubtfully, reaching out to take it. Then she placed the seed in her palm, closed her eyes, and carefully sensed it.

Not long after, she clearly sensed Su Yao’s Soul aura, hidden within this tiny seed.

“Chen Xuan!?! What in the world is going on, how did she turn into a seed?” Hua Mengjie’s eyes widened, staring intently at Chen Xuan, waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.

“Ah, this is a long story. It’s better to wait until you plant her, and then wait for her to grow up before we talk. Of course, you can also go find your older sister Lin Rou; she’s familiar with this.”

“Lin Rou… older sister!!!!” Hua Mengjie was instantly startled by his words.

If Chen Xuan hadn’t reminded her in time, she would have probably forgotten about Lin Rou long ago! After all this time, she and Ji Youruo and the others had been busy, always thinking that she should be the protagonist, but she never expected that the real victim had never even appeared!

“Lin Rou… she and you are truly Dao Companions… And me, what have I been doing? Oh my god, I’m so muddled!!!” Hua Mengjie felt her head buzzing, filled with regret, and her emotions instantly collapsed. She covered her face and sobbed.

“Alright, don’t cry. If we’re talking about fault in this matter, it’s my fault, not yours. Everything was premeditated by me, so the responsibility should be borne by me.” Chen Xuan gently patted Hua Mengjie’s back, comforting her.

“Wuwuwu! You’re still talking! Why are you still saying these things! I… I have no face to see Lin Rou now! It’s all your fault, you big bad guy!” Hua Mengjie could no longer suppress the grievance and self-reproach in her heart. She suddenly threw herself into Chen Xuan’s arms, crying like a child.

Clearly, Hua Mengjie deeply cared about Lin Rou, this “junior.” Theoretically, she should have been the elder who uplifted Lin Rou, but she never expected that in the end, she herself would snatch away Lin Rou’s happiness… Thinking of this, Hua Mengjie felt even more ashamed to face anyone.

“Alright, alright, if you keep crying, it won’t be good for the child in your belly. Lin Rou won’t blame you. She knew about you from the beginning, and you’ve also been to my villa. There are so many people inside; if she were to get angry at everyone, she’d have to be able to get angry!”

“You… you’re simply too much! Absolutely detestable! Lin Rou is clearly my junior, and now… how can I bring myself to call her older sister?!” Hua Mengjie sobbed, continuously wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand.

Hearing this, Chen Xuan shook his head nonchalantly, “Tsk tsk, you’re wrong there. Lin Rou isn’t your junior at all. Once you know her true identity, you’ll probably obediently call her older sister!”

Hua Mengjie raised her tear-filled eyes at his words, choking out, “Re… really? You’re not lying to me, are you?” At this moment, she was crying so much that her face was like a pear blossom bathed in rain, her pitiful appearance making anyone who saw her feel a pang of pity, as delicious and tempting as a ripe cherry.

“Of course! Your humble servant has always been a man of his word and never lies or deceives people! What’s more, you should also know my nature; I can’t bear to see women cry. If you keep crying, hmph hmph, be careful, I might instantly transform into a terrifying devil!”

Hearing these words, Hua Mengjie seemed startled and quickly stopped crying, sobbing, “Whe… where is Lin Rou? I need to go find her right away!”

Chen Xuan’s lips curled into a slight smile at her words. Then he lightly snapped his fingers, and Hua Mengjie instantly vanished from her spot. In the blink of an eye, she had appeared where Lin Rou was.

“This time, considering your emotions are truly not good, I’ll let you off for now, but as for you two…”

As Chen Xuan spoke, he flashed, appearing beside Ji Youruo and grabbing Ji Youruo, who was chasing Qinglan Jade.

“Chen Xuan, let me go! Qinglan Jade, that bad woman, dared to bully me when I wasn’t smart, let me teach that bad woman a good lesson!”

“Youruo, don’t rush. Teaching Qinglan Jade a lesson is more suitable for your humble servant, hehehe!”
