The Dissipation of "Maternal Love," Qian Ren Shang's Sorrow, Bibi Dong's Heartache.
"Deal!"
Qian Xun Ji agreed readily.
Qian Xun Ji felt this had to be because of the children. It was just as he had imagined before. Maternal Love was great; as long as Bibi Dong gave birth, she would be tied down by the children.
He believed that as long as he was willing to lower his head too, perhaps Bibi Dong would be able to completely let go of her hatred later and become a loving family with him.
Taking the child from Bibi Dong's hands, Qian Xun Ji immediately held Qian Ren Shang in his arms, looking at his only son with a face full of affection!
"Son... did you miss Dad?"
"I did!"
Qian Ren Shang shouted loudly. He could sense Qian Xun Ji's fondness for him. Of course, there was another reason Qian Ren Shang had a decent impression of Qian Xun Ji.
As long as Qian Xun Ji came, his days would get a little easier!
"Hahaha..."
Qian Xun Ji laughed heartily. For him, a new father, that one sentence from Qian Ren Shang was enough. He also picked Qian Ren Xue up!
His expression was even more joyful!
"I never thought that I, Qian Xun Ji, would one day have both a son and a daughter... Heaven has treated me well!!"
Sensing the affection from Qian Xun Ji... reward: Host's Innate Soul Power increases by one level!
Bibi Dong stood to the side with a cold face and said nothing. She knew that the current her was no match for Qian Xun Ji at all.
This beast actually thought she had let go of her hatred! Utterly laughable... in her heart, there was only Xiao Gang!
Qian Xun Ji rubbed Qian Ren Shang and Qian Ren Xue's little faces for quite a while, then suddenly asked with concern.
"Right... how have you two been during this period? Has your Mom been good to you?"
Just one sentence!
Bibi Dong's heart immediately leapt into her throat!
"Mom is really good to Xiao Xue... Xiao Xue can do whatever she wants. I like Mom the most!?"
Qian Ren Xue's answer was quite normal. In her eyes, Bibi Dong had indeed done all right.
"Hahaha... what about Xiao Shang?"
Qian Xun Ji looked at Qian Ren Shang with concern again. Bibi Dong immediately looked at Qian Ren Shang, her hands clenched tightly!
"Really good... Mom is good to me and big sister. I can sleep in a warm, big bed every day, and Mom also cooks for the two of us..."
"Mom's cooking is really delicious. And, and... Mom likes holding Xiao Shang the most while telling stories. I really love listening to Mom tell stories."
When Qian Ren Shang said this, his eyes were filled with innocence and joy, as if what he said were truly the facts.
When Bibi Dong heard this, she fell silent in an instant... because the things Qian Ren Shang said were almost the exact opposite of his situation!
But Qian Xun Ji, who did not understand the circumstances, instantly became excited.
"Really? Your Mom is that good to the two of you... hahaha."
Qian Xun Ji looked at Bibi Dong with a face full of satisfaction.
"Dong Er... I originally thought that because of that matter, you might hate me, and might even place that hatred on the children. But I never expected that you didn't at all, and instead raised these two children with such tolerance, devotion, and responsibility!"
"I misjudged you!"
"Didn't I just say your cultivation resources would be tripled?... No, no, directly multiplied by five. And I will also restore your status as Spirit Hall Saintess."
Qian Xun Ji looked at Bibi Dong and continued excitedly.
"After one year... when our contract ends and these two children can stay by my side, I can begin transferring Spirit Hall's authority to you..."
"At that time... with you and me in Spirit Hall, relying on your talent, we will surely create a new glory."
Bibi Dong had not expected this unexpected joy either. She spoke with a smile that did not reach her eyes.
"As long as my resources are met, that's enough... I don't want to discuss anything else with you!"
Qian Xun Ji was not in a hurry either. He believed Bibi Dong's attitude would change one day. After all, the children were right here!
For the rest of the time!
Qian Xun Ji fully played the role of a father, playing with Qian Ren Xue and Qian Ren Shang for quite a while... during this time.
Qian Ren Shang experienced a rare warmth from Qian Ren Xue, finally feeling a hint of what an older sister should be like. Not only that, Qian Xun Ji also gave the two of them many gifts.
"This thing is called Ten Thousand Year Whale Jelly... it's good stuff sent over by people from the Spirit Hall branch by the coast. It is said to improve a person's physique. You two are still young now, so it is just right for you to use."
"There are also a few bottles of pills for Marrow Cleansing here... those are for you two as well."
At the moment of parting, Qian Xun Ji instructed the two children. When it came to his children, he was never stingy!
"Thank you, Dad!"
Qian Ren Xue and Qian Ren Shang thanked him in unison. Qian Xun Ji stroked his chin with a face full of satisfaction. To the side, Bibi Dong looked over with a gaze full of coldness.
Qian Xun Ji sighed helplessly. He knew the visiting time had already come.
"Dad is leaving..."
Under the two children's reluctant gazes, Qian Xun Ji slowly left.
Smack!
The door closed!
The light in the room seemed to dim for an instant. Qian Ren Shang's face was full of smiles. Those few short hours just now had been the happiest time for him during this period.
Six hours!
But...
The smiles on Bibi Dong and Qian Ren Xue's faces began to fade the moment the door closed.
This also meant that those six hours of false "Maternal Love" had disappeared!
"What are you smiling for? You look like an idiot!"
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Ren Shang with impatience all over her face. With a flick of her hand, she directly shoved Qian Ren Shang away.
Qian Ren Shang staggered and nearly fell to the floor. With an awkward expression, Qian Ren Shang rubbed his hands together. The warmth from holding hands earlier seemed to still linger in his palms.
"That beast is gone now... later, pack up and get out. This isn't a place you can stay."
Seeing Qian Ren Shang and Qian Xun Ji acting so close just now had made Bibi Dong feel a wave of disgust, so her attitude toward Qian Ren Shang became even worse!
"Okay... Mom!"
Qian Ren Shang was not angry either. Hugging the gifts Qian Xun Ji had given him, he wanted to leave.
But a small hand blocked his path. When he looked up... he saw Qian Ren Xue's little face filled with anger.
Her willow brows were raised, her face full of indignation.
"Why are you taking these things away? Leave them all here... these things were given to me by Dad!"
"But... don't you have a share too?"
Qian Ren Shang asked in confusion. Qian Ren Xue shook her head and said coldly.
"I don't care... your share has to be mine too. It has always been like this since we were little. You don't need such good things..."
"Isn't that right? Mom!"
As Qian Ren Xue spoke, she looked toward Bibi Dong as if seeking credit. She knew her Mom liked it when she bullied her younger brother. As long as she bullied her younger brother, she could get Mom's embrace!
Qian Ren Xue was used to this!
Bibi Dong watched this scene expressionlessly and said nothing. Qian Ren Shang looked at the side of Bibi Dong's face with some sorrow.
His eyes instantly dimmed!
"I understand..."
After saying that, there was no need for Qian Ren Xue to snatch them. He directly put the things down and left.
The sorrow in his eyes when he looked at Bibi Dong in the instant he left made Bibi Dong freeze in shock.
She touched her heart and suddenly felt a trace of heartache.
"I... why would I feel heartache? Impossible... how could I possibly feel heartache for this child? He is the future heir of the Qian Family, that beast's most satisfactory child!"
"I can't feel heartache for him, and I mustn't feel heartache for him..."
"So what if I target him? I did nothing wrong... it is all that beast's fault!!!"
Bibi Dong frantically convinced herself inside!!!
