80: Here comes another one!

“Hehe, Yun Han, since you’re like this, I can’t help but think this might be my only chance in this life, so I couldn’t help but…”

“Shut up! Don’t call me Yun Han! Now, get out immediately!”

“Alright, alright, Yun Han, don’t be angry. I’ll go now, I’ll go now!” Chen Xuan smiled, then turned and left the room.

Lin Yunhan watched Chen Xuan’s retreating back, her heart a mix of emotions.

“Hmm, I didn’t expect Lin Yunhan to have this kind of attribute; it’s quite a surprise. But there’s nothing wrong with it. I just need to slowly reel her in, and she’ll eventually take the bait.

Now I have nothing else to do. That hateful Han Wanqing, how dare she desert me at the last minute! When you come back, just wait and see if I don’t beat you up!”

Indeed, bullying Han Wanqing was something the former Chen Xuan wouldn’t even dare to imagine. Being constantly ridden on and bullied by her was his normal state. Although he didn’t suffer any actual loss, he always harbored the desire to turn the tables.

Now, he had finally turned the tables, so he absolutely had to let Han Wanqing know what Nightmare Entanglement felt like!

“That Jingyi girl is probably already protected by Zhou Jingqi. I should just go back to my room and wait for Han Wanqing.”

Just as Chen Xuan entered his room, the space at the spiritual spring where he had been earlier fluctuated, and then a figure appeared by the spring.

“Hahahahahaha, my three months of effort really weren’t in vain. After paying such a huge price, I finally entered this Royal Secret Realm. Jingqi Goddess, I’m here!”

The newcomer was none other than Qin Feng. Even though Chen Xuan had already protected Zhou Wan'er, he still managed to enter the Secret Realm through other means.

“Princess Jingqi, please forgive my presumptuous behavior. I just missed you too much…” He didn’t finish his sentence before he saw clothes on the bank.

“Someone’s here?”

He walked closer and saw men’s clothing.

“Huh, why do these clothes look so familiar? It’s like I’ve seen them somewhere… Never mind, it’s just clothes, why should I bother with them!”

With that, Qin Feng shook his head and left directly.

“Hmm? Why are you in my room?!”

Inside the room, Chen Xuan looked at Zhou Jingqi, who was sitting in his spot, and said in surprise.

“What do you mean 'your room'? All the rooms here are my rooms! How can I not come to my own room?!” Zhou Jingqi said, displeased.

“Yes, yes, yes, as expected of Princess. Princess is truly amazing, with so many properties!”

“You, you’re being sarcastic with me, aren’t you?!” Zhou Jingqi pointed at Chen Xuan.

“Oh, it seems our Princess isn’t stupid after all. This makes her harder to coax.”

“I didn’t come here to listen to your rambling. I just want to know if what my Revered Master said is true. Do you like me?”

“My intuition tells me… probably! What do you think?”

“What do you mean 'what I think'? It should be what you think! Did your intuition tell you? Humph!” Zhou Jingqi turned her head away, feigning indifference.

She wanted to test Chen Xuan thoroughly, and ideally, let her sister know what kind of scumbag he truly was!

“Alright, I confess, I admit, I do have some feelings for you. But that doesn’t mean I’ll necessarily pursue you, does it?” Chen Xuan spread his hands, looking indifferent.

“So if you don’t pursue me, you’ll pursue my sister, is that it?”

“You scoundrel!” Zhou Jingqi grew angrier the more she spoke. She suddenly stood up, walked in front of Chen Xuan, and directly grabbed his chest, looking furious.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, you tsundere girl, don’t get physical!” Chen Xuan backed away, trying to avoid Zhou Jingqi’s “attack,” but unfortunately, the girl held on tightly.

“No! No, no, no! Why do you have my Revered Master’s Aura on you?!”

“Uh, well…”

“Speak! What exactly happened?!”

“Just now, I went to apologize to Lin Fairy, but she wasn’t appeased and gave me a good beating.”

“Haha, serves you right! You deserve to be beaten by my Revered Master!” Zhou Jingqi released Chen Xuan and said with a laugh.

However, she didn’t know that her Revered Master had already been completely drained by Chen Xuan.

“Hey, stop laughing. Don’t you care about me at all?” Chen Xuan said, rubbing his chest.

“Care about you? Why should I care about you?” Zhou Jingqi blinked, looking confused.

“Hey, I’ve been beaten like this by your Revered Master. Don’t you feel any pity?”

“Why should I feel pity for you? It wasn’t me who beat you! And besides, why don’t you think about what you did?” Zhou Jingqi gnashed her teeth.

It was fine when Chen Xuan didn’t mention it, but as soon as he did, her anger flared up.

“What did I do? It was clearly your Revered Master who walked on me, and I’m the one who got beaten. I’m the biggest victim, alright?!”

“Bah, you were… you were hiding so well back then, why did you, why did you grab someone’s foot?!” Zhou Jingqi’s face flushed red again.

“Oh, you’re talking about that!” Chen Xuan suddenly understood.

“You had already stepped on me so many times back then, and all I did was grab your foot. It’s good that I didn’t beat you, and you’re still getting angry?”

“Can that be the same? My, that’s something you can touch? Only a future husband can…” (In ancient times, a woman’s feet couldn’t even be seen by others.)

“What? This can only be for a future husband?”

“You, you didn’t know?!”

“I knew nothing! If I had known earlier…”

If he had known earlier, he might have already pushed Han Wanqing away. So she had been hinting at him all along!

“But, Jingqi, does that mean you’re going to marry me?”

“Are you trying to die?!” Zhou Jingqi once again grabbed Chen Xuan’s collar.

“But that really is for a future husband, and now it’s in my hand!”

“You!!! With your cheap behavior, there’s no way I’d marry you! My Revered Master’s was even seen by you, why don’t you dare to tell her?”

“If I told her, wouldn’t she beat me to death?”

“It would be good if she really beat you to death!”

“Wow, you’re too malicious, aren’t you? Committing spousal murder!”

“Ah, ah, ah, ah, Chen Xuan!!! I’m going to kill you!” With that, Zhou Jingqi reached out with her small fists to punch Chen Xuan’s chest, but she didn’t use much force, only enough to make Chen Xuan feel pain.

Looking at Zhou Jingqi’s pouting expression, Chen Xuan only found her incredibly adorable.

However, while teasing was fine, Chen Xuan also knew his limits. He gently held Zhou Jingqi’s hand and said, “Alright, let’s stop messing around. I was wrong, okay? I won’t tease you like this anymore.”

Zhou Jingqi, hearing Chen Xuan admit his mistake, still felt angry but couldn’t really act on it. She could only snort and shake off his hand.

“So, you were beaten by my Revered Master, why should I feel pity for you?”
