The Protagonist Stole My Spiritual Roots? The Heroine, Give Me a Good Birth!

56: Walls have ears, Huang Meihua wants to improve“Alright, it’s getting late. I should go back and continue Cultivating,” Chen Wenwen said coldly.

“Hmm, I should go too, Young Master Chen, I’m entrusting Wenwen to you! I feel most at ease leaving her with you!”

“Alright, Brother Tianming, take care! Wenwen is with me, and I will definitely take good care of her. You, don’t worry!”

Zhao Tianming nodded, then turned and left.

Watching Zhao Tianming leave, Chen Wenwen finally hugged one of Chen Xuan’s arms and fiercely pinched the soft flesh around his waist.

“Ouch, what are you doing, Wenwen?” Chen Xuan wrapped an arm around her waist and took a deep breath.

“Hmph, Husband, Husband is so naughty!”

“Hehe, it’s because my wife’s voice is so pleasant! I, I just love listening to songs!”

…

The couple’s voices faded into the distance until they entered the house, after which a “thump” sounded from the opposite courtyard.

It was Huang Meihua.

She was sitting on the ground, leaning against the door of her own courtyard, breathing heavily to process the information she had just learned.

“That Zhao Wenwen, just because Chen Xuan has some special hobbies, she cooperated with Chen Xuan to deceive Zhao Tianming! She, she really is Chen Xuan’s concubine!”

“I knew it, Chen Xuan sometimes looked at me so… fiercely, and Zhao Wenwen is so beautiful, how could he let her go!”

“And, he actually managed to subdue Zhao Lingwu, making her and Zhao Wenwen sing for him together!” Huang Meihua felt uncomfortable all over looking at Zhao Lingwu’s happiness.

She couldn’t be that happy!

However, what surprised her the most was Chen Xuan’s method of guiding others in Cultivation! He was actually able to help Chen Wenwen increase two Ranks in just a few days, reaching the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage!

If he could also guide Zhao Lingwu like that…

Huang Meihua didn’t dare to think further. If Chen Xuan could really help her Breakthrough, then the future Zhou Capital would undergo a massive change, and even the entire Zhou Kingdom would bear the Zhao surname!

She and Zhao Lingwu were originally peers, but because she lacked Cultivation talent, the gap between them had become so vast! In status, in Cultivation, and in husband… even more so!

If she could also be guided by Chen Xuan… it wouldn’t be impossible for her to Breakthrough to Golden Core in this lifetime!

Thinking of this, a bitter smile suddenly appeared on her face, and her heart was filled with envy and… jealousy towards Zhao Lingwu!

She leaned against the door, staring blankly at the sky. Her eyes were filled with confusion and helplessness, and before she knew it, they were covered in tears.

“No, I’m not willing! This might be my only chance in this life! I must find a way to make Chen Xuan help me improve my strength too!” Huang Meihua thought to herself. She stood up and returned to her room.

She first calmed herself down, then began to ponder how to make Chen Xuan help her improve her strength. After thinking for a while, a smile appeared on her face.

“Although you, Chen Xuan, are exceptionally talented in other areas, you yourself have no strength. As long as I can get Zhao Lingwu out of the way…” Instantly, an idea sprouted in her mind.

The next day, Huang Meihua, dressed beautifully, came to Chen Xuan’s courtyard.

“Oh, Sister-in-law?! Why are you here?” Chen Xuan was a little surprised to see the beautiful yet dark-eyed Huang Meihua.

Huang Meihua’s face flushed slightly, and she said shyly, “Young Master Chen, I was free today, so I came to visit and brought some snacks for you.”

She still wanted to talk to Chen Xuan first to see if he could directly guide her. The other method was a bit extreme, and it was best not to use it if possible.

Chen Xuan was stunned. Looking at the snacks in Huang Meihua’s hand, he smiled and said, “Sister-in-law is thoughtful, please come in!”

After entering the house, Huang Meihua looked at Chen Xuan, smiled slightly, and said, “Where’s Ling Wu? Why haven’t I seen her come out?”

“Oh, she’s still sleeping!”

“Huh? I’m quite familiar with Ling Wu. Isn’t she usually Cultivating at this time? Why is she still resting now?”

“Cough cough, maybe she’s tired, haha.”

“It seems Young Master Chen’s skill is not low. Even our Ling Wu was defeated by him! Truly young and promising!” Huang Meihua hinted.

Chen Xuan immediately understood.

He probably “disturbed the peace” last night, and now she’s here to “subtly” remind him.

“Not at all, Sister-in-law, please don’t flatter me. I’ll definitely pay attention next time!”

“Hehe, Young Master Chen is indeed smart, grasping things quickly! However, I am not here for this matter. I have something I’d like to ask for your help with.”

Chen Xuan nodded and said, “Sister-in-law, please speak. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help.”

Huang Meihua hesitated for a moment and said, “Young Master Chen, I want to ask you to help me improve my strength. As long as you can help, I am willing to pay any price!”

“Improve strength?” Chen Xuan was a little confused. When did he gain the ability to improve someone’s strength?

“Young Master Chen, there’s no need to pretend. I heard the conversation between you and Zhao Tianming last night, but I won’t tell anyone. I just hope Young Master Chen can also guide me!”

“…”

Now Chen Xuan understood, but his so-called “guidance” was not guidance in the conventional sense. If he really guided the beautiful sister-in-law in front of him, the Zhao family would be in an uproar!

Furthermore, such matters should be discussed in private. Now that you’ve said it out loud, do you think Zhao Lingwu can’t hear it? How dare I agree to you?

“Sister-in-law, actually, this is just a beautiful misunderstanding!”

“What, what do you mean?” Huang Meihua frowned.

“Actually, I gave Wenwen Medicinal Pills for Cultivation, which is why her Cultivation progressed so rapidly. I didn’t truly guide her.”

“Oh? So that’s how it is. May I ask what Medicinal Pill Young Master Chen gave her, that she could make such rapid progress in just a few days?!”

“This…” Chen Xuan paused.

He couldn’t immediately think of any Medicinal Pill that could have such a good effect. As an Alchemist before, he only dealt with conventional Medicinal Pills whose effects were clear once their names were mentioned.

And Huang Meihua, seeing Chen Xuan’s hesitation, already had an answer in her heart.

He’s lying to me! He clearly has a method to help people Breakthrough quickly, but he just doesn’t want to tell me!

“This is not convenient to disclose, please forgive me, Sister-in-law!”

“It’s alright, everyone has their secrets, I, I don’t mind.” Huang Meihua intentionally looked dejected.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan pulled out a small jade bottle from somewhere. He took a step forward and grasped Huang Meihua’s jade hand.
