Chapter 2468 - 45: Innate Taoist Body! I Am Ordinary and Unremarkable

...

"Grandpa, I understand, I’ll work harder on it." Wang Fugui nodded somewhat helplessly.

He understood his great grandfather’s mindset, but he did have some reservations about having more children.

Wang Fugui was still young, and having just one Baosheng already gave him a headache. He couldn’t even imagine how life would be if Idle Man’s Residence was filled with more "Wang Baosheng" style kids.

But since his great grandfather had already spoken, there was no sneaking away from this one.

He glanced at Wang Baosheng and couldn’t help but get annoyed: "Why are you laughing?"

Wang Baosheng quickly straightened his expression: "Dad, I’m not laughing, I’m just happy that our family will soon have more brothers and sisters..."

Add a few more?

Wang Fugui’s eyelid twitched, and he sneered: "By the way, Baosheng, you’re sixteen now, right? Ever since you advanced to the Heavenly Human Realm at fourteen, it’s been over two years. Your cultivation base has reached Level Two of the Heavenly Human Realm, and you’re doing quite well with the literature and entertainment division too. You can handle things on your own, so why are you still living at Idle Man’s Residence?"

"Dad, I think it’s pretty good here." Wang Baosheng said with an aggrieved face, "Mom and Aunties don’t want me to move out and live alone so early."

"A mama’s boy as you are, how will you find a wife if this gets out?" Wang Fugui criticized with a stern face, "You’re sixteen, haven’t you ever dated?"

"..."

Wang Baosheng was speechless for a moment, then finally squeezed out a reply: "Dad, I’m still young, just sixteen. Besides, isn’t pursuing a career more fun than dating?"

"Sigh!"

Both Wang Fugui and Wang Anye sighed.

"Hahahahaha~"

Princess Hua Rui laughed so hard she bent over forward and backward: "Baosheng, you’ve never dated? Your great grandfather and your dad... they were already dating girls at your age, and the girls were head over heels, refusing to marry anyone else. You’re really lagging behind... How about this, Aunt will introduce you to a girlfriend~~ Do you prefer someone pure and lovely, or lively and cute?"

"Aunt, girls are too much trouble." Wang Baosheng shook his head hurriedly and decisively, "Especially girls my age, we don’t have much in common, and they’re all particularly childish, just know how to goof around."

"..." Wang Fugui had a sudden flash of inspiration and looked at Wang Baosheng with a probing gaze, "You think girls your age are childish, could it be you like..."

"Ah, now that you mention it, I remember." Princess Hua Rui clapped her hands, suddenly recalling some gossip she heard earlier, "I heard last time that Baosheng is close to Ouyang Nanyan and Shentu Shihe, often eating together and watching movies. Baosheng, do you like older girls?"

"Impossible!" Wang Baosheng strongly denied, "Senior Ouyang is outstanding and efficient, she’s my right-hand woman. Occasionally doing things with her serves two purposes: one is to conveniently discuss work, and the other is a leadership technique."

"As for Mister Shentu, she has great potential, I’m just encouraging her growth."

Wang Anye was listening by the side with some thought: "The taste is a bit... special, but the Wang family has always been open and inclusive, so it’s not unacceptable."

"Indeed, I’ve checked as well." Wang Fugui nodded in agreement, "Although the two girls are somewhat older, they have no lack of potential and qualifications, and their family backgrounds are clean. I’m thinking, since we don’t need Baosheng to marry for alliances, why not let him continue the family line early."

Wang Fugui naturally wanted his son to get married early; while he’s still young and his cultivation base is low, it’s a good time to have a few more children, which would help alleviate some of the intense pressure from the great grandfather.

What?

Wang Baosheng was completely dumbfounded.

What do you mean there’s no need for alliances, just continue the family line early?

Turns out, both father and son are thinking of letting the other have children to divert the pressure? No, no, he can’t get married, he has to focus on his career and take on the family’s responsibilities!

"No, no, I’m still young..." Wang Baosheng quickly shook his head, "I don’t want to get married, I don’t want to have kids."

"Great grandfather said, if you and I don’t procreate, when will the Wang family rise?"

"Alright, you two stop pushing the responsibility onto each other, none of you can escape the duty of having children." Wang Anye waved his hand, changing the subject, "On this trip to the Sacred Domain, despite some twists and turns, we did have some gains."

As he spoke, Wang Anye waved his hand and a few treasure items with an aura of immortality appeared on the table, including two Immortal Scriptures and three Immortal Artifacts...

"Some gains?"

Wang Baosheng’s eyes widened.

Great grandfather, do you have to be so calm and breezy? Such priceless treasures are only ’some’ gains to you...

Back then, he had to go through so much trouble to secure an Immortal Scripture for his mother, only to be preempted by Grand Aunt Li Yao in the end.

Suddenly, Wang Baosheng seemed to understand what his great grandfather meant earlier. Everyone in the human race shoulders the burden together, there’s no need for one person to feel too much pressure.

With such a great grandfather who casually brings back Immortal Scriptures, Wang Baosheng inexplicably felt a weight lifted from his heart... not so oppressive anymore...

As for Wang Fugui, who had more interactions with his grandfather, he was long accustomed to his grandfather’s impressive and nonchalant demeanor.
