The Gift He Gave Her

"It's not like I haven't seen your mother before. I knew your mother before I even knew you."

Lu Qing'an smiled faintly. Back when he was short of money, he would bring a lot of the items and materials he obtained by killing enemies or Devil Beast to sell here.

At that time, the Xue Household's chamber of commerce was not as large as it is now, and Xue Tianfei's mother was the president.

Xue Tianfei smiled and said, "My mother already knows you've returned. Not long ago, she asked me when I would take her to meet you."

"What a coincidence, let's meet up. By the way, this is a gift for you." Lu Qing'an took out a box of Demon God Mother Tree Leaves and handed it to Xue Tianfei.

Xue Tianfei's beautiful eyes lit up, and she quickly took the gift. "What gift?"

He's been enjoying giving her gifts more and more lately!

Could it be that he has finally fallen for her?!

Lu Qing'an said, "Leaves of the Demon God Mother Tree."

"I've already heard that you've refined the Demon God Mother Tree. I really like this gift!" Xue Tianfei carefully put it away.

She didn't use it to make tea; she just treasured it!

"It's not just for you, it's for your mother too..." Lu Qing'an said.

Xue Tianfei paused for a moment, then quickly said, "It's alright! My mother doesn't like tea!"

Lu Qing'an's expression was strange.

Before long, led by Xue Tianfei, he arrived at the residence of Xue Tianfei's mother.

This is a tranquil garden with lakes, woods, and a unique botanical garden.

There's also a small hill covered with all sorts of unique tea trees!

Lu Qing'an saw Xue Tianfei's mother from afar, picking tea buds in front of a tea tree that exuded spiritual energy.

She was an old woman, with snow-white hair and flowing white clothes.

At this moment, she seemed to sense something, and turned to look at Lu Qing'an others. Her eyes were bright, her cultivation was powerful, but she had a very kind face.

"Young Master Lu!"

Upon seeing Lu Qing'an, Madam Qin laughed heartily, then flashed into view and appeared before Lu Qing'an and the other two.

"Senior Qin, it's been a long time." Lu Qing'an greeted him with a smile.

He met the Madam Qin when he was in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, and he received a lot of help from this senior back then.

"Haha! Not bad, not bad! You don't seem as ferocious as before! I've heard about your recent exploits; you even refined the Demon God Mother Tree? Truly, you're a force to be reckoned with!"

Looking at Lu Qing'an, Madam Qin's weathered eyes couldn't help but gleam with admiration.

She had always admired Lu Qing'an.

Her daughter's fervent pursuit of Lu Qing'an was done with her consent.

Lu Qing'an shook his head and smiled, then looked at Lu Miaomiao and said, "Miaomiao, call her Grandma."

Lu Miaomiao greeted with a grin, "Hello, Grandma! My name is Miaomiao! I'm Daddy's youngest daughter, please take good care of me from now on!"

Madam Qin was very happy a second ago, but after listening to Lu Miaomiao's introduction, she froze the next second.

daughter?

Or is it the youngest daughter?!

Madam Qin frowned as she looked at Lu Qing'an, then quickly glanced at her daughter.

Xue Tianfei quickly shifted her gaze elsewhere.

"Father, it seems like Grandma doesn't really like Miaomiao?" Lu Miaomiao sensed something and asked softly.

No matter how softly she spoke, Madam Qin could still hear her.

She took a deep breath, forcing a slightly awkward smile, "No, young lady, I still quite like you..."

That brat Lu!

He has a wife!!

How can she possibly be happy?!

My prospective son-in-law has flown away!!

"Miaomiao really likes Aunt Xue. Grandma, you're Aunt Xue's mother, so Miaomiao likes you too! Can we be friends from now on?" Lu Miaomiao looked at Madam Qin with great sincerity.

Upon hearing this, Madam Qin's lips twitched, and she looked at her daughter.

You have such a good relationship with your rival's daughter?

Is this really her daughter, Xue Tianfei?

Something's not right!

Something's absolutely wrong!

"Little Xue! What happened!" Madam Qin asked quickly via telepathy.

Xue Tianfei had no choice but to quickly explain Lu Qing'an's situation.

"Mom, don't worry about me. I love him for who he is, no matter what he's been through. Besides, he broke up with that stupid woman, right? I think this is the perfect opportunity for me to win his heart! And look, isn't this little one so adorable! I don't even have to give birth, avoiding the pain, and I can just become a stepmother. Isn't that great!"

Xue Tianfei sent a telepathic message to Madam Qin, displaying a slightly coquettish and affectionate manner, as if she were acting like a spoiled child with her mother.

Madam Qin frowned, pondered for a moment, and then fell silent.

That's the logic.

but...

How can you even live with yourself?

She was very clear about her daughter's problem.

She looks exactly like her father did back then!

You can really accept your rival's child? This was quite unexpected for her!

If it's just a fake acceptance, then based on her understanding of Lu Qing'an, this relationship definitely won't work!

"Are you sure you really like his child? Don't suppress everything just because you like him! Otherwise, problems will arise sooner or later."

Madam Qin considered things more comprehensively. If her daughter's affection was fake, she would rather sever her daughter's feelings for Lu Qing'an than risk causing a major disaster later.

"I really love it! Look at this child, how adorable! Don't you want to pinch those little cheeks?"

Xue Tianfei transmitted her voice with a cheerful laugh.

At first, she was indeed quite afraid to touch the child, but as she spent more time with him, she found that she could get used to it!

"Good, it's clear you like this little girl. However, judging from what she said, it seems he has an older daughter? An older daughter is different; can you really accept that?" Madam Qin asked quickly.

Xue Tianfei chuckled and transmitted her voice, "Mother, you don't understand! I feel much more compatible with his eldest daughter! It's like she's my own child!"

Madam Qin was stunned.

Your child is the same as yours?!

No, you like him, but not to the point of fantasizing about having a child with him...

Madam Qin felt a little ashamed.

"Mother, it's hard for you to understand now, but you'll understand when you see his eldest daughter."

Xue Tianfei smiled and kept everyone in suspense.

Madam Qin knew her daughter well and ultimately decided to let her have her way.

"Come, it's been a long time! Let's have some tea and chat!" Madam Qin said to Lu Qing'an with a smile.

Lu Qing'an smiled and nodded.

After taking only two steps, Madam Qin suddenly stopped, a slightly sly smile on her face, "Young Lu, you've already refined that Demon God Mother Tree, you should have quite a few leaves at its top, right? Did you come empty-handed this time?"

The meaning is quite clear.

She wants the Demon God Mother Tree's Leaf!

Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei with a strange expression.

Madam Qin seemed to have realized something, and looked at Xue Tianfei, directly transmitting her voice. "You embezzled?"

Xue Tianfei turned around and looked in another direction, pretending not to have heard.

Even if you were my mother, you wouldn't be able to take away a single piece of the gift he gave me.

Lu Qing'an shook his head and smiled, saying, "I'm going back to Demon Descent City for a bit. Could you look after the child for me?"

After saying that, Lu Qing'an turned around and used his martial arts to break through the void, disappearing from sight.

At this moment, Madam Qin pointed at her daughter and said, "You, you think men are more important than your mother, right?"

Xue Tianfei smiled and said, "It's rare for him to give me a gift, so I wouldn't bear to let you use it to make tea. Of course, if you need it to save your life, that's a different story."

Madam Qin glanced at her daughter with a hint of annoyance, then looked at Lu Miaomiao with a kind expression. "Miaomiao, right? Come, come with your mother-in-law. Your father probably won't be back anytime soon."

But no sooner had she finished speaking than Lu Qing'an emerged from the void in the blink of an eye!

And he already had a box of Demon God Mother Tree Leaves in his hand.

This speed startled Madam Qin.

Has this kid Lu become this terrifyingly strong?!
