School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1354: Chapter 1440: Old Flame?

Seeing Yun Chen’s disgruntled expression, Chen Nan couldn’t help but laugh.

He reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder, saying carelessly, ”Why are you frowning? Your face is quite nice, but you look terribly ugly when you frown like that.”

Yun Chen puffed up her cheeks and made a face at him, ”Hmph, even if I look deathly ugly, I still won’t call you Uncle Master.”

Chen Nan sighed, ”Why bother? Just accept it.”

”Accept your big-headed nonsense.”

”Reality is reality, even if you don’t acknowledge it, it won’t change anything!”

Chen Nan sighed repeatedly, making Yun Chen quite furious, but he still shook his head and said, ”In any case, I’m your Uncle Master. Apart from the fact that your father is my senior brother, you also learned martial arts from my senior sister in the Purple Bamboo Forest, so you have to call me Uncle Master from that perspective too. So, just accept it.”

Yun Chen realized it was indeed the case.

She waved her hands at Chen Nan in frustration but couldn’t do anything.

”Look at you, just like a little cat flipping out, you’re already grown-up but not at all composed. Do I really need to teach you how to be a lady as your Uncle Master?” Chen Nan advised earnestly.

Yun Chen felt like she was losing it, stomped her foot angrily, and looked at her father, ”Dad, look at him, where does he even remotely look like an Uncle Master?”

Kuang Yu chuckled bitterly, chose to pretend he didn’t see it, and turned away to look elsewhere.

Yun Chen turned back to continue glaring at Chen Nan.

Chen Nan shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, showing an expression of innocence.

Shi Fanzhen laughed heartily on the side, ”Brother, now that you’re her Uncle Master, should she call me Uncle too?”

”Naturally.”

Chen Nan nodded and waved Yun Chen over, ”Come, come, little niece, come meet your Uncle Shi.”

Yun Chen clenched her fists, her teeth grinding audibly, and she glared at Chen Nan before pointing at Shi Fanzhen’s nose and said, ”Big Rock, stop making a fuss here, or I’ll pull your ear off later.”

Shi Fanzhen scratched his head and murmured, ”This little niece is not respectful at all and has sharp words.”

Shi Fanzhen, being straightforward, said whatever came to his mind.

Yun Chen didn’t mind too much, but hearing this, she widened her eyes and stared fiercely at Shi Fanzhen.

Although Shi Fanzhen wasn’t afraid of anything, he didn’t act tough in front of his own people, so he scratched his head and walked to the side, still murmuring, ”What niece, she’s fiercer than Sister Rou.”

When he mentioned Sister Rou, he was naturally referring to the fierce Chu Wenrou.

Yun Chen glared at his back, and seeing that Shi Fanzhen didn’t pay attention, she finally let it go.

At this moment, the warship was passing near Ningjiang City, and Chen Nan stood on the warship, clearly seeing the Ningjiang below.

Even though the past year was full of war, with all factories shut down, the Ningjiang River was actually less polluted and clearer than before.

Humans are strange creatures, always feeling nostalgic to some extent.

No matter if you’re a Saint of the age or an exalted immortal, when you open the dusty memories from your heart, no one can remain indifferent.

If saints feel this way, so how much more would an ordinary person like Chen Nan?

Looking at the familiar place below, although the familiar buildings had been destroyed, Chen Nan still felt a sense of warmth in his heart.

The warship flew rapidly, and it all passed in an instant. If not for Chen Nan’s good eye power, he wouldn’t even have been able to see it clearly.

”Wait a moment.”

Chen Nan instructed the warship to stop.

He grabbed Li Xiao’s hand and said to Kuang Yu and the others, ”You guys go ahead, I want to go down to have a look. I’ll catch up shortly.”

”This...”

Kuang Yu hesitated for a moment and then nodded, ”Alright, but make it quick. Take this ship with you.”

Kuang Yu kept his earlier promise and gifted the warship to Chen Nan, erasing his own Spiritual Imprint from the ship. Then he summoned another warship and left with the others.

Chen Nan used a drop of blood to recognize ownership, and with his Divine Sense taking residence, he took control of this new warship, returning with Li Xiao to Ningjiang City.

They didn’t go down, just hovered over Ningjiang City.

Due to the truce, the city, once destroyed, had some areas beginning to rebuild, and when the residents saw Chen Nan and his warship flying overhead, they were filled with fear, thinking the Demon Clan had struck again.

”Actually, I came back a few days ago,” Li Xiao suddenly said.

Chen Nan was taken aback, then understood; after all, her parents lived here, and she must have returned to find them, so he asked, ”Did you find them?”

Li Xiao was silent for a moment before tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, ”I only found some bones in the ruins.”

Chen Nan held her, wiping her tears from her face, ”Don’t be sad. Bones don’t necessarily mean anything. Maybe they belong to someone else.”

Li Xiao forced a small smile.

But she knew in her heart that Chen Nan was just comforting her. After all, in her own house, whose bones could they possibly be if not her parents’?

By this time, they had reached the eastern district of the city, and in front of a dilapidated house, Chen Nan saw a familiar figure.

”Sister Xiao Yu, she’s still alive!”

Chen Nan found it almost unbelievable that after such turmoil, she, a woman with no real strength, had survived.

Li Xiao furrowed her elegant brows and stared into Chen Nan’s eyes, ”Hey, little bad guy, is this another one of your old flames?”

”Darling, that’s your dirty mind at work.”

Chen Nan playfully pinched Li Xiao’s cheek, put away the warship, and jumped down to the ground.

Yi Xiaoyu, hearing the commotion, turned around to look in their direction, and was instantly dumbfounded.

”Chen... Chen Nan...”

She rubbed her eyes hard, and after confirming she wasn’t mistaken, she rushed over and threw herself into Chen Nan’s arms, sobbing.

Chen Nan was also at a loss by her actions, and he patted her back to comfort, ”Sister, don’t cry. Be good, don’t cry. Everything is fine now.”

Yi Xiaoyu seemed not to hear, just holding him tightly.

Beside them, Li Xiao’s brow furrowed again, thinking, well, you little rascal, you just said it was my dirty mind, but now it’s clear that she’s not your sister, but indeed an old flame.

”Ahem...”

Li Xiao cleared her throat, deliberately coughing a few times.

Chen Nan quickly came to his senses, instinctively stepping back a bit, but Yi Xiaoyu was lost in her emotions, hugging Chen Nan firmly as if unaware of anything.

Back when she was studying, she had feelings for Chen Nan, which could be called a crush. But because Chen Nan was pursuing Chu Wenrou and had too many girlfriends, she never expressed her feelings; now, having survived a disaster and reunited, her emotions got the best of her.
