Chapter 500 - 249: What Have You Turned Her Into?

Chapter 500: Chapter 249: What Have You Turned Her Into?

Just like that, two women tugged at Chu Xuan, and he had to muster some husbandly dignity to convince Qingqing that they would start the schedule from tomorrow, alternating between the two of them.

"As for today," Chu Xuan pondered, "let me spend time with Shurou first, alright? After all, it’s been over twenty years since we’ve seen each other."

Qingqing was not easy to fool. "Didn’t you two already spend a long time being lovey-dovey on the road before? One or two days are certainly doable, right? It’s not like you just met."

Chu Xuan was speechless and could only say, "How about spending time with both of you together, is that okay?"

This made Pei Shurou, who was already feeling a mix of emotions, look at Chu Xuan with an even more plaintive gaze, while her eyes toward Qingqing were filled with cold hostility.

Chu Xuan shook his head with amusement and said, "How about half a day each?"

Before Qingqing could respond, Chu Xuan continued, "Shurou in the morning, you in the afternoon, that’s settled."

Seeing this scene, Ji Mingyu bit his lip, secretly lamenting: Am I just an outsider? Not even allowed to voice my opinion??

It wasn’t supposed to be like this; it wasn’t supposed to be like this. She increasingly regretted her foolish actions from before...

Ming Yu was about to play the pitiful act, but Pei Shurou suddenly picked up Chu Xuan and, with a speed beyond belief, disappeared in front of the two of them; it seemed she couldn’t wait any longer.

Qingqing, who hadn’t had the chance to speak, stomped her foot in frustration, thinking to herself: No, I need to form an alliance!

Initially, she planned to abandon her "plastic sisterhood" with Gu Haitang and enjoy a world for two with Chu Xuan. But now the situation was dire; Chu Xuan’s old flames were each more enchanting than the last, and she, a young girl, couldn’t compete with them.

It seems she must join forces with Haitang; only then can they suppress this bunch of "antiques," these relics of the old era, for which the new era has no room!

Qingqing even considered bringing Qin Mengyao into it... no, better not, that treacherous woman clearly doesn’t fit in; Haitang is more pliable and easier to talk to.

Regarding Xiaoxue, Qingqing turned around, giving her a strange look, "You better confess honestly, I felt something fishy between you two before, and this time it’s even more obvious. What are you and Chu Xuan hiding from me??"

"And Ji Mingyu? Get out here!"

Ming Yu couldn’t be bothered to deal with her, leaving innocent Xiaoxue to deal with this girl, while she ran off to find Chu Xuan.

Xiaoxue secretly lamented, while persuading: "Qingqing, didn’t you used to admire that senior master? You weren’t like this before; you respected her greatly."

"Well, she was stealing my man!" Qingqing huffed.

...

In a clean room, on the bed, Pei Shurou lay in Chu Xuan’s arms, talking about how much she missed him all these years.

As she spoke, she suddenly smiled and said, "Was it deliberate back at the Ruo Wood Secret Realm?"

"No, absolutely not!" Chu Xuan felt the need to clear his name.

He explained first how that bottle of aphrodisiac elixir came into existence, how it got mixed with those bottles and jars, and finally how she mistakenly consumed it.

"In short, it was a coincidence. I felt sorry for you back then; how could I purposely feed you such medicine?"

Pei Shurou nodded, her face flushed, "Then why did you later not directly take me, but help me deal with the effects in that way."

"First, I didn’t want to take advantage of someone in distress; second, I didn’t intend to reclaim my identity as Tianxie, and certainly didn’t want to cause you more harm..." Chu Xuan’s expression carried some guilt.

Pei Shurou looked at Chu Xuan with even more tenderness, "Actually, even if you had taken advantage of me back then, I wouldn’t have hated you. I would have endured the shame while pretending as if nothing happened."

"Just like when you left clues after cleaning that bottle, I pretended I didn’t notice."

"Moreover," Pei Shurou’s eyes were filled with affection, "it’s not enough, Master, that’s far from enough. I want your genuine love~"

Saying this, she actively kissed Chu Xuan’s lips, greedily claiming more.

Chu Xuan could feel her pent-up desire over the years, no longer holding back, as he kissed her back, turning her over, laying her on the bed, and slowly removing her clothes.

During this process, Pei Shurou joyfully shed tears; for her, receiving the master’s wholehearted love was the happiest thing in the world~

...

Agreed on spending half a day, yet Qingqing failed to find where the two had hidden the entire day, leaving her fuming with anger.

And Ji Mingyu, eavesdropping secretly, wasn’t feeling any better. Her sole thought: What have you turned a proper fairy into!

She couldn’t fathom how this gentle and weak-looking, dignified woman could have such a stark contrast in the bedroom, while Chu Xuan, that scoundrel, how much did he obscure from me all those years??

After spending a whole day, finally satisfying Pei Shurou and coaxing her to sleep, it was with guilt that Chu Xuan returned to meet Qingqing.

Qingqing, naturally displeased, chased the scoundrel around with a series of punches, and it took Chu Xuan a long time to coax her back into a smile.

And so, Chu Xuan began his routine of spending his Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays with Qingqing, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays with the baby, and Sundays with "Xiaoxue"—a happy yet troubling life.

...

Two days later, Li Xingchuan and Yu Zhanfeng arrived together. After meeting Chu Xuan, they were sent off by Yao Yufei to handle tasks. With two high-level aides at her disposal, she had no reservations in putting them to work.
