70: Take control, expose

"Jingyi, you know, I am a very responsible person. Every woman I have married, I will be responsible for her to the end."

Chen Xuan gently stroked Zhou Jingyi's hair and said softly, "I know I have many wives, which is indeed difficult for a woman to accept."

But what I want to say is that every woman is unique to me, they are all my treasures. Just like you are not only my princess, but also the woman I deeply love."

Hearing Chen Xuan's words, Zhou Jingyi was slightly startled, and a ripple stirred in her heart. She turned around, looking at Chen Xuan's sincere eyes, feeling a little swayed.

"Really?" Zhou Jingyi asked softly.

Chen Xuan nodded, "Of course, I never lie. Jingyi, I know you can't fully accept me yet, but I believe that one day, you will understand me."

Zhou Jingyi was silent for a moment, then finally nodded gently, "Then, then I'll give you another chance. If you dare to bully me again, or let me down, then I, then I'll never talk to you again!"

Chen Xuan smiled upon hearing this, "Don't worry, Princess, I swear I will never bully you again. I will treat you well and never betray your trust!"

Zhou Jingyi's face flushed slightly, and a hint of sweetness filled her heart. She gently punched Chen Xuan's chest and said coquettishly, "Hmph, that's more like it!"

Chen Xuan took the opportunity to wrap his arm around Zhou Jingyi's slender waist and whispered in her ear, "So, Princess, from now on, we are lovers, right?"

Zhou Jingyi's face grew even redder. She pursed her lips and nodded gently, "Mm."

Chen Xuan was overjoyed and couldn't help but kiss Zhou Jingyi's cherry lips. Zhou Jingyi struggled slightly, then obediently closed her eyes, responding to Chen Xuan's passion.

Anyway... anyway, the last time at the Zhao family, she was treated this way by Chen Xuan. Besides Chen Xuan, she couldn't marry anyone else! Of course, she only wanted to marry Chen Xuan.

Sunlight filtered through the trees, casting a golden veil over their embracing figures, making them beautiful as a painting.

...

"Jingyi? Why have you been gone so long?" Zhou Jingqi's voice came from afar.

"Ah!"

Zhou Jingyi was startled and pushed Chen Xuan away.

"My, my sister is coming, quickly hide!"

"This... where can I hide? She'll be here any second!" Chen Xuan said helplessly, looking at the approaching figure.

But luckily, it was Zhou Jingqi who came, not Lin Yunhan. He could still handle her.

"Oh no, it's too late, you, quickly hide in the water!" Zhou Jingyi pressed Chen Xuan's shoulders, directly pushing him into the Spirit Spring, then sat above him to cover him.

To avoid trouble, Chen Xuan also directly concealed his Qi.

As the sound of Zhou Jingqi's jade feet stepping in the water grew closer, Zhou Jingyi's heart was in her throat. She sat by the Spirit Spring, trying to remain calm, while praying that her sister wouldn't discover Chen Xuan.

Then, Zhou Jingqi stood on the water's surface and walked over.

Sunlight filtered through the trees onto her face, making her look exceptionally bright and charming.

She was wearing a pink form-fitting outfit, showcasing her graceful figure. Her slender waist and long legs appeared even fairer under the sunlight.

Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart after seeing her. Zhou Jingqi, this woman, was truly beautiful from the inside out. Every frown and smile made people want to look at her more, like a vivid painting that made people linger.

"Oh, Jingyi, what are you doing sitting here by yourself? Revered Master didn't come either!" Zhou Jingqi asked curiously.

"No, nothing, just casually looking at the scenery." Zhou Jingyi forced a faint smile and replied.

"Jingyi, you've been playing in this place since you were little, what scenery is there? Are you okay? Why do you look a little red? Are you sick?" Zhou Jingqi entered the water and asked with concern.

Her long hair was also casually draped over her shoulders, gently swaying with the water.

Zhou Jingyi was startled and quickly waved her hand, "No, nothing, maybe I was just a little tired from Cultivating earlier."

Zhou Jingqi frowned upon hearing this, "Jingyi, this is where I, your sister, have to scold you. You've been at this Spirit Spring for so long, and you only Cultivated for such a short while, and you're already saying you're tired! How can Cultivating be so lax!"

"Mm, I know, thank you for your concern, Sister." Zhou Jingyi casually responded, forcing a smile, but her heart was on Chen Xuan, fearing that he would be discovered by Zhou Jingqi.

"I just saw that you hadn't come back for a long time. Why have you been here for so long?" Zhou Jingqi said, sitting down beside Zhou Jingyi.

Seeing this, Zhou Jingyi quickly changed the subject, "No, nothing. I just wanted to rest here. But Sister, your cultivation has improved a lot recently, has something good happened?"

Zhou Jingqi frowned slightly. She knew her sister too well; this was clearly a lie, hiding something from her!

But she still smiled, "Yes, I've been feeling particularly smooth in my Cultivation recently, as if something is helping me. It's really strange."

"Oh, is that so!" Zhou Jingyi pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, but inwardly she was anxious, hoping Chen Xuan wouldn't be exposed.

"But Jingyi has really grown up. She even has her own little secrets now, hiding them from her sister!" Zhou Jingqi suddenly put her arm around her sister's shoulder and teased.

Zhou Jingyi was startled by Zhou Jingqi's sudden movement, and her small foot accidentally kicked something.

Then a string of bubbles suddenly emerged from the Spirit Spring.

Zhou Jingqi immediately noticed the anomaly. She turned to look at the Spirit Spring, her face changing, "Who? Who's in there?"

Zhou Jingyi's heart sank, secretly thinking, 'This is bad.'

"Sister, no, there's no one there. Maybe it's just fish blowing bubbles." Zhou Jingyi said with a forced smile.

Zhou Jingqi frowned, clearly not believing her, "These bubbles don't look like they're from fish. There must be someone in there!"

Saying that, Zhou Jingqi stood up, ready to investigate.

Zhou Jingyi quickly stopped her, "Sister, there's really nothing. Don't make a fuss, let's go back."

Seeing this, Zhou Jingqi became even more certain that there was someone in the Spirit Spring. She pushed Zhou Jingyi aside and came to the edge of the Spirit Spring.

"Come out!" Zhou Jingqi shouted sternly.

Chen Xuan knew he couldn't hide any longer, so he had no choice but to surface, revealing his disheveled appearance.

"Chen Xuan?!" Zhou Jingqi looked at him in shock, "How are you here?"

Chen Xuan awkwardly rubbed his nose and chuckled dryly, "This, this is a long story..."

"Hmph, I don't care what your reason is, you scoundrel, daring to come to my family's Secret Realm, take a move from me first!"

Zhou Jingqi had long been displeased with Chen Xuan, a scoundrel who had wronged her!

Chen Xuan: "!!!"
