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

319: Causes and consequences“Since that’s the case, I’ll take my leave first and visit you another day.” Chen Xuan suddenly stood up and left without looking back.

It wasn’t until Chen Xuan had walked far away that Ning Yuewan’s face turned pale again, and she spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Chen Xuan, you scoundrel, why do I still feel emotional even though you’ve already left?”

Ning Yuewan bit her lip, her heart filled with conflicting emotions.

Chen Xuan’s appearance completely disrupted her life, making it impossible for her to maintain a peaceful heart.

After bidding farewell to Ning Yuewan, Chen Xuan did not return to his Small World but instead visited the Zhu Family.

With his token, he could easily pass through the Zhu Family’s defenses and arrive at Zhu Zhu’s small courtyard.

“Chen Xuan!!”

As soon as Chen Xuan stepped through the Zhu Family’s gate, Zhu Zhu, who had been idle, immediately sensed his presence and directly pounced towards him.

However, Chen Xuan deftly dodged her pounce.

This girl, at this moment, she had forgotten to restrain herself.

Zhu Zhu pouted her small mouth but said nothing more.

“Hmph, Young Master Chen, at this moment, you finally remember me?”

“Hehe, it’s just that I’ve been too busy lately, and I saw that you seemed to have been staying at home all this time, so I came to see you!”

“What else could it be? Because I snuck out once last time, now those old geezers won’t let me leave the house.”

“So that’s it. I was wondering how you could stand it!” Chen Xuan smiled and pinched Zhu Zhu’s small face.

“Hmph!” The girl directly turned her body away.

“Alright, alright, I’ve pretty much handled my affairs now. Don’t worry, in a few more days, I promise to take you away, how about it?”

“You, are you serious?” The girl immediately became happy.

“Of course, it’s true. When have I ever lied to you!”

“Hmph, you’ve lied plenty! Let me tell you, if the person you lied to wasn’t me, but someone else, they would have run off long ago!”

“Yes, yes, yes, our Young Miss Zhu Zhu is the best, is that enough!”

“That’s how it is!”

“Hahaha, my little cat is truly adorable! However, I still have a question that I don’t quite understand.”

“What question?”

“It’s just that…” Chen Xuan found it difficult to speak, as he was asking about another woman.

“What is it? When did you start teasing people like this!”

“It’s just, if I wanted to take a woman from the White Tiger Empire’s imperial Family, it was very smooth at first, but then, her face suddenly turned pale, and her attitude towards me did a 180-degree turn. What’s going on?”

Chen Xuan was not foolish. Ning Yuewan’s sudden change in attitude must have been due to something unspeakable, so he chose to leave and ask someone else.

“A woman from the imperial Family? Who are you talking about?”

As expected, the little jealous girl immediately pinched Chen Xuan.

“Cough, cough, I said ‘if,’ ‘if’! In this vast White Tiger Empire, who could be as beautiful as my Zhu Zhu? I wouldn’t even look at ordinary people!”

“Oh, please! You’ve already said she was suffering from an oath’s backlash, and you’re still talking about ‘if’ with me? Tell me, which woman surnamed Dai is it!”

There was no noble of the White Tiger Empire that Zhu Zhu didn’t know.

“No, no, absolutely not! I just passed by and saw her. I swear to Heaven, there’s absolutely no woman surnamed Dai!” Chen Xuan said with a sincere expression.

Zhu Zhu looked at Chen Xuan suspiciously for a moment, then believed him.

Because none of the women surnamed Dai could compare to her beauty!

“What you’re describing is an oath sworn to the Heavenly Dao!”

“Heavenly Dao oath?”

“That’s right. Generally speaking, noble daughters of large Families and the imperial Family, and even princes and heirs, all have to swear oaths to the Heavenly Dao!”

“No, why would they swear oaths for no reason?”

“It’s all for benefit, to prevent traitors from appearing in the Family, people who are controlled by their lower desires!”

Chen Xuan: “?????”

“Oh, why are you so stupid!”

“Let me put it this way: for example, a large Family painstakingly Cultivates a noble daughter, spending a lot of resources. One day, she suddenly runs off with, with an unknown wild boy, abandoning the Family. Then the Family’s cultivation efforts would be in vain, just dressing up someone else for free!”

“So they have to make these noble daughters swear not to leave the Family?”

“Not exactly. Unless the person proposing marriage provides a large amount of equivalent betrothal gifts, or marries into the Family, the Family will also let them go. It’s impossible for them not to marry for their entire lives.”

“Isn’t that just a transaction?”

“How could it be? The premise is that the wild boy has to make the noble daughter fall in love with him! Just this one condition alone makes countless people hesitate! After all, how could the noble daughters cultivated with great wealth by the Family have low standards? Only those who are new to the world and understand nothing would be deceived by men!”

“Uh, why do I feel like you’re talking about yourself?”

“Pah! I’m not new to the world! It’s all because of what you did to me in the Lower Realm… anyway, I can’t get married now!” Zhu Zhu protested, reaching out to pinch Chen Xuan.

“Cough, cough, that’s not right either. Then how could you openly plot to elope with me? Didn’t you swear an oath?”

“Why would I swear an oath? According to the Family’s arrangements, I’m destined to be the Empress of the White Tiger Empire in the future. Who would dare to make me swear an oath? They’re all afraid I’ll hold a grudge and seek revenge in the future!”

“Good heavens…”

“Then those who marry into the Family, do they also have to swear an oath?”

“Of course! The Family provides Cultivation resources and Cultivation Techniques, so they definitely have to swear an oath!”

“So that’s how it is. I didn’t expect my Zhu Zhu to know so much!”

“Go, go, go. These are just the most basic Family rules, stop with the awkward flattery!” Although the girl said this, the smile on her face couldn’t be suppressed.

Slowly, she leaned closer to Chen Xuan, burying her face in his embrace.

However, just then, the door to Zhu Zhu’s courtyard opened.

The two instantly separated, sat up straight, and then both looked towards the doorway.

A gentle, beautiful woman slowly walked into the small courtyard.

The beautiful woman had a serene expression, appearing to be in her thirties. She was plump and graceful, her loose, cream-colored knitted sweater made her skin appear like jade, her exquisite hair was neatly tied, and her eyes were full of tenderness, still possessing a charming allure.

(I really can’t find a suitable picture. You can imagine it based on the description.)

“Mother!? How, how did you come here?” Zhu Zhu was very surprised.

“Ah, Mother? Zhu Zhu, if you hadn’t said anything, I would have thought this was your older sister!” Chen Xuan feigned surprise.

“Hmph, what do you know? When Mother was young, she was the number one beauty in the White Tiger Empire. In this entire White Tiger Empire, who knows how many men wanted to marry my Mother!” Zhu Zhu said proudly.

“Is that so? Then I’m truly fortunate today to meet such a beautiful woman.”

“Thank you for the compliment, but, Young Master Chen, you are the first person who dared to praise me like that in front of me. I’ll remember that.” Zhu Zhu’s Mother smiled slightly, appearing even more beautiful and charming.

“Oh, why would you remember him! Mother, do you need something from us?”

“Hmm, nothing much. I heard that Young Master Chen came to visit our Zhu Family, so I wanted to come and see. How did you two meet back then?” Zhu Zhu’s Mother asked with a smile, seemingly casually.

Zhu Zhu’s face flushed.

(I found that many people haven’t seen Zhu Zhu. Zhu Zhu’s picture is in the discussion.)
