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

78: Cross-channel chat“Alright, that act doesn’t work on me! What I want to know is, why would Zhao Lingwu agree to marry you? You know she has quite a few Golden Core Stage suitors!” Lin Yunhan said.

“Oh? Golden Core suitors? Are they as handsome as me?”

“No, no! But what’s the use of being handsome, you’re still… How can you be with a Golden Core Cultivator!”

‘This hint, you can hear it, right!’

“But I’m also a third-rank Alchemist and Talisman Revered Master. Although my cultivation is not enough now, I can research various Pill Formulas and teach the Zhao Family people!”

“…”

“But even so, there are still people who meet the requirements, so why did Zhao Lingwu still choose you?”

“Can they accept becoming a live-in son-in-law? Or can they accept their children taking the Zhao surname?”

“…You win.”

“But this isn’t the most crucial point. The most crucial thing is that I have my own special skill that can make Ling Wu happy and make me happy. That’s the most important thing.”

“What special skill?” Her curiosity was piqued again.

“Sorry, that’s very private. I can’t tell you. I can only say that everyone who knows about this special skill of mine likes it very much!”

Chen Xuan looked directly at Lin Yunhan, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.

This was not for Lin Yunhan, but for his wives.

However, this obviously made Lin Yunhan misunderstand something. She was a little flustered, her heart pounding, her cheeks flushed, completely unsure of what to say.

‘He, what does he mean by this? No, he’s not really planning to… What should I do? Where did Han Wanqing go at a time like this!’

“No, absolutely not! This is not what you should…!”

“Hey, Lin Fairy, what are you saying?” Chen Xuan looked at Lin Yunhan in confusion and instantly noticed her abnormality.

“Fairy, what’s wrong with you? Why is your face so red!”

After being discovered by Chen Xuan, Lin Yunhan became even more shy and was speechless for a moment.

“Ah, could it be that she’s sick?” Chen Xuan said, then stepped forward and reached out to touch Lin Yunhan’s forehead.

This action immediately startled Lin Yunhan, and she quickly retreated a few steps, saying in a panic, “No, don’t! I’m fine! I’m not sick!”

Chen Xuan was stunned, then laughed, “Hahaha, Fairy, don’t misunderstand. I was just worried you were sick. If you’re fine, that’s great!”

“That’s great? What do you mean!”

Chen Xuan: “???”

“You, you don’t have to pretend anymore, Chen Xuan. I’ve already seen through you!”

“Seen through me?” Chen Xuan was even more confused. “I really don’t understand what Fairy means by this!”

“Since that’s the case, I’ll be direct!”

“You, do you have some intentions towards me?!” Lin Yunhan extended her slender, jade-like finger and pointed at Chen Xuan.

“Me? Intentions towards you!?” Chen Xuan repeated, unsure.

“Yes, you don’t have to pretend. Your coming here to apologize now is nothing more than wanting an opportunity to be alone with me. Otherwise, why wouldn’t you bring your Revered Master with you?!”

“…”

‘Holy crap! What’s wrong with you, woman? Can you read minds? How did you guess all my little thoughts? This is too outrageous!’

“System!”

“Ding, hello Host.”

“You’re not going to be like those villain novels and let this woman hear my inner thoughts, are you?”

“Ding, this System is a villainous Cao… Family System, so it naturally wouldn’t do such a thing. Host, you don’t need to worry!”

…

“What, I hit the nail on the head, so you’re not talking?”

“I, I’m telling you, this is impossible, forever impossible, do you understand!”

“Forever impossible, I don’t understand.”

Chen Xuan looked at Yun Han, a smile playing on his lips, then slowly walked to her side and sat down.

“Lin… Yunhan, do you know? Actually, I quite like you.”

Chen Xuan said gently.

Lin Yunhan was stunned by these words, as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

“Su, sure enough, it’s like this. He really wants to make a move on me!” She hadn’t expected Chen Xuan to confess to her in such a situation.

However, she quickly recovered, her face slightly red, and she shook her head, saying, “No, I cannot accept your feelings.”

“Why?” Chen Xuan asked.

“Why? Don’t you know why yourself?!” Lin Yunhan shouted.

“Han Wanqing and I have been sisters for many years. Strictly speaking, I’m still your Junior Martial Uncle. Is this how you treat your Junior Martial Uncle?”

“But, I’m not Han Wanqing’s disciple anymore.” Chen Xuan smiled indifferently.

“Han, Han Wanqing?! Indeed, you really are…!” Lin Yunhan was too shocked to speak.

Upon hearing that he had let slip, Chen Xuan simply laid everything bare:

“That’s right, since you already know, I won’t pretend anymore. I just like my Revered Master. I’m coming clean!”

“You, you like your Revered Master, so why do you also like me at the same time? Are you thinking of raising your seniority so you can be on equal footing with Han Wanqing?!”

Lin Yunhan was trembling slightly. This wasn’t worry or fear, but… excitement!

Yes, she really was a “traditional woman” who loved gossip. Anything or anyone that broke conventional understanding would give her a sense of forbidden pleasure.

She loved this feeling, and everything that happened had nothing to do with her.

“Raising seniority?”

Chen Xuan shook his head.

“That’s not necessary at all, Lin Fairy. Do you think I must be of the same seniority to be with her?”

“Isn’t that… isn’t it? Otherwise, as a disciple, being with your Master is a great act of disrespect!”

“I don’t think there’s anything disrespectful about it. In fact, in my hometown, this kind of thing is quite common. Han Wanqing and I are both decades old, so we will naturally be responsible for our actions.”

“And…”

“And what?” Lin Yunhan quickly asked.

“And I already have several wives who are of the same seniority as Han Wanqing, so it’s no big deal, right?”

‘So, he wasn’t trying to raise his seniority! Han Wanqing, you’ve lost out big time!’ Lin Yunhan bit her lip, then plucked up her courage and asked, “Chen Xuan, can you tell me, what do you, what do you like about me?”

Chen Xuan looked at Lin Yunhan, remained silent for a moment, then said seriously, “I like your kindness, your beauty, your ethereal temperament, and your passion for life. Whenever I see you, my heart feels peaceful and warm, as if I’ve found my home.”

Lin Yunhan’s face turned even redder upon hearing Chen Xuan’s answer.

“Si, since you like me so much, why, why did you… to my disciple…” She finally asked the question she should have asked from the beginning.
