The pool beneath the waterfall was a clear, deep blue. Ye Lingxi stood by the pool, silent for a long time, before finally nodding and saying, "Okay, I promise you."
Upon hearing this, the woman smiled sweetly, but then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did your brother agree?"
Ye Lingxi shook her head and said, "This is my own decision, it doesn't need my brother's."
The woman frowned, recalling the figure in white, a hint of apprehension flashing in her eyes. "Without his permission, I dare not take you away."
Ye Lingxi said earnestly, "If my brother holds you accountable later, I'll take the blame for you, so don't worry."
The woman was still worried, saying, "But this separation might last for ten years..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Lingxi suddenly said, "What is ten years to a cultivator? Besides, I believe that no matter what I'm doing, my brother is definitely watching."
As she spoke, she glanced at the sky, but quickly looked away.
After thinking for a long time, the woman finally nodded and said, "Alright then."
She slowly stood up, her gaze fixed on Ye Lingxi, "Are you ready?"
Ye Lingxi nodded.
Without further hesitation, the woman took Ye Lingxi's hand and they disappeared together, leaving only their fragrance behind.
Above the void, a man stood with silver hair that danced in the wind, his deep and calm eyes looking down at the spot where Ye Lingxi and the woman had disappeared.
[Are you really so comfortable letting her take Lingxi away?]
The system suddenly said.
Su Chen said calmly, "This is Lingxi's own choice."
[But by then, she will be forever confined to this place, unable to go to wider areas.]
The system said.
Su Chen remained calm. "With me here, this won't happen."
He ignored the system, took a step, and disappeared.
Mystic Hall
Inside the courtyard, Qin Zixuan lay on the stone table, her delicate fingers playing with the flower petals, but her mind was elsewhere. Several days ago, Su Chen brought her back to the courtyard and then left in a hurry, leaving her alone here.
Qin Zixuan, unfamiliar with the place, did not wander around but stayed in the courtyard, waiting for Su Chen to return. This wait lasted for several days.
"Sigh, I wonder when Chen will come back," Qin Zixuan sighed.
"What, you've missed me after just a few days?" At this moment, a magnetic voice rang out. Upon hearing this voice, Qin Zixuan was first taken aback, then her face lit up with joy. She looked up and saw a man slowly walking towards her. She ran over and rushed into his arms.
"You're finally back," Qin Zixuan said happily, looking up.
Su Chen stroked her hair and said softly, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Qin Zixuan shook her head, "It's alright, I know you have something urgent to attend to."
Su Chen smiled slightly, "Have you visited my parents during this time?"
Qin Zixuan's cheeks Hong Yun. "No, I'm nervous about going alone."
"Okay, then I'll take you there." Su Chen nodded, took Qin Zixuan's hand, and left the courtyard. Feeling the warmth of her hand, Qin Zixuan's smile never faded, and she felt very happy. In the past, she never dared to imagine that such a thing would happen to her.
This is a garden where exotic flowers and plants vie for attention, their petals delicate and vibrant, their colors dazzling and shimmering under the soft light.
" An'er, are you about to give birth?" In the garden, there was a pavilion. Under the pavilion, Su Yanche looked at Qin An's belly with great excitement, and occasionally grinned foolishly.
Qin An sat on a stone bench, cushioned with soft cotton. Her round, full belly swelled high, as if bearing the precious treasure of life. She gently placed her hands on her stomach, a tender smile on her face. "Yes, it should be soon."
Su Yanche looked at Qin An, his face full of concern, "You've had a tough time these past few days."
Qin An shook his head, "It's not hard work."
The two gazed at each other, their eyes filled with love like a blazing galaxy, their light intertwining, blurring everything around them into a hazy silhouette.
Su Yanche looked at Qin An with deep affection, his eyes filled with tenderness and tenderness. He slowly raised his hand and gently stroked Qin An's face, his fingertips caressing her delicate skin. Then, he slowly lowered his head and moved closer to Qin An inch by inch.
Qin An's cheeks flushed slightly, his eyes trembled slightly, and his breathing became rapid, but he did not flinch.
"Ahem." Just as the two were about to kiss, two soft coughs suddenly rang out. A hint of panic flashed across Qin An's face, and he quickly dodged backward.
Su Yan Che's forehead veins bulged, and a surge of anger welled up in his eyes. His fists clenched tightly. Although it was only two light coughs, he still recognized who had made them. Who else could it be but his son?
"You brat..." Su Yanche suddenly turned around, his expression filled with rage, but he stopped mid-sentence, immediately suppressing his anger. He looked at Qin Zixuan beside Su Chen and smiled, "Oh, who is this young lady?"
Su Chen: "..."
The speed at which they changed their tune is just too fast!
Qin Zixuan was nervous and slightly flushed as she said shyly, "Uncle, Aunt, hello."
Qin An composed himself, looked at Su Chen and Qin Zixuan, and finally his gaze fell on their tightly clasped hands. A smile appeared on his face as he softly asked, " Chen'er, who is this?"
Su Chen led Qin Zixuan to the pavilion where they sat down, and then said, "This is the daughter-in-law I found for you, her name is Qin Zixuan."
Upon hearing this, Qin An and Su Yanche were both stunned. Su Chen had taken the initiative to bring his girlfriend back, and for a moment, they were caught off guard.
"Oh dear, you child, you brought that girl home, why didn't you tell your mother sooner?" Qin An said reproachfully, coming back to his senses.
Su Chen said awkwardly, "I forgot."
Qin An ignored him and looked at Qin Zixuan, smiling as he said, "I'm so sorry, we didn't know you were coming, so we didn't make any preparations. I'll go cook now to welcome you."
"Don't!"
"No need, Auntie!"
"No!"
The three people spoke up to stop them.
Qin An frowned and said, "How can that be? It's the young lady's first time visiting our home; we can't afford to be unhospitable."
"Auntie, really, there's no need. I'm not hungry. Thank you for your kindness," Qin Zixuan said hurriedly. She knew that Qin An was pregnant, so she naturally couldn't let him do anything busy; she would feel guilty if she did.
Su Chen said, "Mother, your belly is so big now, don't worry about these things, just get some rest."
Qin An pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Alright."
She looked at Qin Zixuan and said apologetically, "Child, I'm so sorry."
Qin Zixuan quickly shook her head and waved her hand, saying, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
Qin An smiled gently, " Xiao Chen has never taken the initiative to bring a girl to meet us before. Can you tell your story with your aunt?"
