Chapter 234 - 119: 5 Years Pass in the Blink of an Eye
"How about by the window?"
Zhao Xin said, "Let’s do our Charitable Giving there!"
Xu Lei was happy to oblige.
But unexpectedly, just as Xu Lei carried Zhao Xin to the window, before they could even begin their Charitable Giving...
A carrier pigeon flew in.
"It’s a letter from Martial Aunt!"
Zhao Xin’s expression changed slightly as she read it. "She says... my... my master is back!
Uncle Hui Chi, I might have to go back and see Master.
Martial Aunt also said you should go see her too.
She hasn’t seen you in a long time either."
"Is that so?"
Xu Lei said, "In that case, I’ll go back with you.
After all, I’ve only heard about your master from you all these years. It’s about time I met her.
Besides, I’m your Dao Companion now. It’s only right that I meet your master.
Since your parents aren’t around, your master is basically like a mother to you, right?
It’s like they say, the new bride always has to meet the in-laws. Might as well get it over with.
Of course, we can’t be open about our relationship as Dao Companions just yet.
After all, the fewer people who know about the Phoenix True Flame, the better.
That includes your master. We can’t tell her."
"I know."
Zhao Xin frowned. "But if this happens, it might be difficult to have children.
If Master wants to keep me by her side, I think she might..."
"Let’s go back and see first."
Xu Lei said, "We’ll see what your master says. As for having children, we can let fate decide."
「A day later.」
Xu Lei and Zhao Xin arrived at the Daoist Temple.
"Sir, we must ask you to leave."
Just as they arrived outside, they saw a young man in lavish clothing being shooed away by a disciple of the Daoist Temple. "Please take these worldly possessions back with you.
A Daoist Temple is a place of quiet cultivation.
Daoist Master Jingchun is a renunciate!
It’s impossible for her to have any marital destiny with you!"
Seeing this, Xu Lei couldn’t help but marvel to himself. ’Looks like Zhao Xin’s master really is beautiful.’
Zhao Xin had, of course, told Xu Lei a few things about her master, Jingchun, before.
"Master just got back to the Daoist Temple, right?"
Zhao Xin couldn’t help but ask, "And she’s already attracting admirers? They even chased her all the way to the Daoist Temple?
Uncle Hui Chi, I told you my master was good-looking. You believe me now, don’t you?
When you meet her, you better not get any funny ideas!
Your Dao Companion right now is me!
You absolutely cannot fantasize about performing Charitable Giving to my master!
If you want to perform Charitable Giving, you can only do it to me!"
"Don’t worry."
Xu Lei said, "I won’t. Having you is more than enough for me!
In my eyes, no other woman in the world is as beautiful as you, my Xin’er!
And I definitely want to perform Charitable Giving to you. I want to right now!"
"In terms of looks, I know I won’t lose out!"
Zhao Xin said pitifully, "But... her... her chest is bigger than mine!"
"You’re feeling insecure? Aren’t you usually so confident?"
Xu Lei didn’t say much, just reached out to pat Zhao Xin’s head. "You’ve always been beautiful and known it!
Besides, you have a great figure too.
Most importantly, she doesn’t have your youthful, delicate charm.
So cute, our Xin’er!
Xin’er, I really want to perform Charitable Giving to you again!"
"Don’t... I’ll let you tonight."
Zhao Xin’s pretty face flushed slightly. "Not now, there are too many people around."
As they spoke, the two entered the inner courtyard of the Daoist Temple.
Xu Lei still hadn’t seen where Jingchun was.
Suddenly, Zhao Xin turned, her beautiful eyes lighting up, and ran toward someone behind them.
"Master!" she cried, hugging a long-haired figure in a Daoist Robe who had just stepped out of a room—a woman with a curvaceous, delicate, and graceful form.
"You silly girl," the figure said, hugging Zhao Xin back with great affection.
It was clearly Jingchun.
Due to the angle, Xu Lei couldn’t see her full face yet.
He could only see her small ears, the fair skin of her profile, and her long, slender neck.
And, of course, looking further down, her incredibly curvy figure!
He couldn’t help but marvel to himself again. Zhao Xin hadn’t been exaggerating.
