Chapter 59 - 052 Mutual Love Without Doubt (Two-in-One)_2

What a shame.

Yun Qian didn’t care about his looks, yet he was moved by Yun Qian becoming even more beautiful.

Indeed, I am a hopelessly lecherous person.

Xu Chang’an smiled as he pushed the steaming porridge toward Yun Qian’s hand: "So... eating, you need to be full to have the energy to do other things."

Yun Qian stared at him for a moment, then pushed the porridge back.

"!?"

Xu Chang’an’s eyes widened; he didn’t expect that even after saying so much, Yun Qian still wouldn’t eat breakfast.

"Miss?"

"Feed me."

"...Alright."

Hearing the undeniable tone in Yun Qian’s voice, Xu Chang’an helplessly got up and sat beside Yun Qian, picked up the carefully prepared porridge, and took a spoon.

The porridge in the jade bowl looked very appetizing, glistening with a clear fragrance, not the usual plain white rice porridge. It had added saffron sugar, millet, and red dates, promoting circulation and nutrition, with a sweet and pleasant taste.

After blowing on the sparkling spoon, tasting a mouthful to confirm the temperature was right, Xu Chang’an brought the spoon to Yun Qian’s mouth, waiting for her to open her mouth before letting her swallow all the porridge, then repeated the previous steps.

——

After a warm breakfast, Xu Chang’an cleaned up the dishes and looked at the contentedly reclining Yun Qian, unable to resist asking: "Miss, if I don’t mind you, can you resist not eating?"

Yun Qian thought seriously for a while and came to a conclusion.

"Can’t resist."

Because she was indeed hungry, and he had put heart into preparing breakfast, she did want to eat it.

"Can you resist not minding me?" Yun Qian asked calmly.

Xu Chang’an’s eye twitched.

Fatal strike.

Yun Qian gently lifted the hair by her ear: "I’m full now, you can go and busy yourself. I’m comfortable staying here."

"Not in a rush." Xu Chang’an walked over to hold Yun Qian’s hand, saying, "I encountered some good things and want to tell you about them."

"Tell me, I’m listening."

Then, Xu Chang’an told Yun Qian about his success in open source, talent enhancement, and even being valued by the Sect seniors.

Of course, he hid the existence of the system, otherwise, she would just complain as before that he was speaking incomprehensible things.

Moreover, having a system, Yun Qian might worry.

——

After sharing his progress with Yun Qian, Xu Chang’an felt his thoughts becoming much clearer.

"Those are indeed very good things." Yun Qian looked into Xu Chang’an’s bright eyes, nodding: "You seem happier than I thought, perhaps today is worth remembering."

"Remember?" Xu Chang’an shook his head: "My open source isn’t worth remembering, but Miss’s open source is."

"Open... source?" Yun Qian tilted her head.

What is her source?

Forget it, it’s not important.

"Next, I’m planning to choose two cultivation techniques to prepare for the inner sect trials." Xu Chang’an took a deep breath, looking at Yun Qian.

He spent so much time with his wife today for a reason.

"So?"

"So, I need to prepare for the upcoming battle, maybe I really can’t come often. But rest assured, Miss, I’ll first settle your guide’s matter before getting busy."

"Mm, I said as long as you enjoy playing, it’s fine." Yun Qian thought for a moment, asking: "Are the inner sect trials difficult?"

"There are reportedly two ways to enter the inner sect." Xu Chang’an said: "The trial tower and martial contest."

One is fighting demons, the other is fighting cultivators.

"Which do you want to join?" Yun Qian asked.

"It depends on the cultivation technique I choose."

"Will you get hurt?"

"Of course, you don’t need to worry, Miss. It’s not life-threatening." Xu Chang’an said seriously: "Cultivation is never smooth sailing."

"Got it." Yun Qian replied.

"That settles it, I’ll head off now." Xu Chang’an stood up to say goodbye, but Yun Qian pulled at his clothes, startling Xu Chang’an.

Usually, Miss Yun wouldn’t express reluctance when he was leaving.

Was she worried about him getting hurt in fights?

"Don’t rush off." Yun Qian shook her head, looking at Xu Chang’an’s waist: "You said... a girl gave you a jade pendant to wear close to you."

Xu Chang’an blinked, then took out the glazed jade and placed it in his palm: "It’s this, it seems to speed up my cultivation."

"..." Yun Qian eyed the beautiful, internally glowing jade pendant and said: "The book says this is called a token of love."

By all rights, a wife knowing her husband wears a gemstone gifted by another woman close to his body shouldn’t be happy.

"What are you saying?" Xu Chang’an was helpless. "This is a magical artifact from a senior."

"Is it a token?" Yun Qian asked.

"A token? This could be considered one." Xu Chang’an hesitated, indeed, it counted as a token.

Yun Qian clutched Xu Chang’an’s clothes, thinking how the book said that a personal jade is different from other things... moreover, she hadn’t gifted Xu Chang’an anything yet.

"I..." Xu Chang’an was about to say something when Yun Qian interrupted him.

"I don’t feel well." Yun Qian clutched her chest.

Xu Chang’an looked at Yun Qian, recalling how he wanted to share his good news with her first after opening up, he somewhat understood her feelings.

"What should I do then?" Xu Chang’an looked at Yun Qian’s tightly clasped fingers.

"I also want to give you something." Yun Qian said.

Xu Chang’an blinked, looking at his elegant wife, and coughed: "What I want most, I already have."

"What do you mean?"

"Who knows."

"Then I’ll think about it." Yun Qian pondered for a while, deciding to give Xu Chang’an a token too, and said: "Is there anything you want? Tell me, anything goes."

What do you want, any item or wish.

I can agree to anything.

That’s what Yun Qian thought.

Oh.

Except for a child, that truly can’t be made.

"..."

Xu Chang’an looked at Yun Qian, only finding his wife exuding immense allure.

She wasn’t aware of what jealousy was but was striving to learn.

Yes.

Miss Yun didn’t understand jealousy, but I should, I have to learn to think from her perspective.

Husband lives in a place filled with women, surely should let his wife rest assured, besides... he too desired a token from Yun Qian to carry, constantly reminding him not to slack off, to strive in cultivation.

"I got it." Xu Chang’an entered the kitchen, picking up a sharp, gleaming knife and approached Yun Qian.

"..."

Watching Xu Chang’an approach, Yun Qian’s eyes widened a bit.

Usually, he wouldn’t allow a knife to come this close to her.

"Sshh."

After a slicing sound, Xu Chang’an held the knife and cut a small lock of his hair in front of Yun Qian.

He placed the hair on the table, looking at Yun Qian.

"Do you want... to sever our bond?" Yun Qian eyed Xu Chang’an, her eyes shimmering with watery light.

Xu Chang’an’s hand holding the knife trembled slightly, thinking his Miss Yun’s line of thinking was always so quirky.

"Bonding by hair." He said.
