Donât you dare!
After that, Chen Xi decisively stood still and didnât dare take a step forward.
Outside the hall, Fei Lengcui puckered her lips and smiled when she saw this, and she turned around and left while bringing along Chen Hao who was taking pleasure in Chen Xiâs misfortune.
After that, the atmosphere within the hall fell into deathly silence once again.
The five delicate and charming beauties puckered their lips and stayed silent with bitterness in their eyes, and the expressions in their eyes caused Chen Xiâs heart to feel cold. In the end, he smiled in embarrassment and returned to his seat.
But even when he sat there, it still felt like he was sitting on a cushion of pins, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. It was simply like he was a prisoner that was waiting to receive judgment.
âAfter so many years, youâre finally willing to come back?â In the end, it was Ya Qing that spoke. She had bright eyes, beautiful features, jet black hair that flowed down like a waterfall, and her gorgeous face was completely tranquil and composed.
Chen Xi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It was good that someone spoke because at the very least, it was much more calming that silence.
However, before he could feel slightly at ease, the other four womenâs gazes swished over to stare at him. All of these bitter gazes were like blades that cut at Chen Xi to the point his heart trembled.
After quite a long while, he smiled bitterly and rubbed his nose before opening his mouth with the intention of saying something. However, he closed his mouth right after because he didnât know how to answer Ya Qingâs question.
âAlas, canât you give us all an explanation? Even if itâs a lie, itâs a way of expressing your feelings at the very least, right?â Ya Qing sighed faintly.
It was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples on the surface of a lake, and the other four girls spoke successively.
âIt looks to me like heâs guilty.â Du Qingxi puckered her lips, and her icy cold face was covered in a sense of loss.
âBig Brother Chen Xi, I remember that you used to be very good at sweet-talking girls, yet youâre currently keeping silent. Have you taken us to be strangers after a few hundreds of years passed?â Mu Yao spoke with a pitiable expression, and her crescent shaped eyes seemed watery as if on the verge of tearing up.
âI knew it! We wasted a few hundreds of years for nothing! Look, all of youâre speechless now, right?â Yan Yan grunted, and she seemed bitter, displeased, angry, and disappointed.
âBeauty only lasts for a moment. Alas, I think that even if we wait until our hair turns grey, we wouldnât be able to see the moment that he changes his mind.â Yun Na sighed sorrowfully.
Chen Xi instantly felt his head ache while he smiled bitterly without end.
Why have these women become like this? Canât we just talk normally?
Of course, he could only criticize in his heart because he himself was clearly aware that heâd let them down and still hadnât given them a clear answer.
Now, a few hundreds of years had passed, yet they actually still kept thinking about him, causing him to feel even more guilty. Under such circumstances, he knew that he was in the wrong, so how could he possibly try to defend himself?
Fortunately, it wasnât long before Fei Lengcui entered the hall with a group of servants, and it instantly caused the five bitter beauties to stop talking, allowing Chen Xi to heave a sigh of relief in his heart.
After Fei Lengcui finished commanding the servants to lay down a table of sumptuous food and wine, she smiled lightly before turning around and leaving.
After this short incident, Chen Xi seized this opportunity to speak. âLetâs eat as we talk. It wonât be long before I might have to leave again. Itâs really difficult to get together once.â
Leave?
All of them were stunned, and their hearts tightened while their expressions changed slightly. Since Chen Xi left the Darchu Dynasty, theyâd been constantly staying in the Chen Clan, and all their thoughts were about meeting Chen Xi again.
This wait was an entire few hundreds of years, and this âheartbreakerâ Chen Xi had finally returned, so how could they possibly watch helplessly as he vanished once more?
They instantly couldnât be bothered to feel bitter and stood up successively to head over and sit down before the table. They each took up different tasks and seemed to not intend to make a fuss about it with Chen Xi any longer.
This allowed Chen Xiâs heart to ease up greatly, and then he felt that he was slightly despicable.
Is using my departure as an excuse really a good thing?
But in next to no time, he couldnât let his thoughts run wild any longer becauseâŠ
âChen Xi, try this. When I knew youâd returned, I specially prepared this for you. I remember that the first dish you learned when being a Spirit Chef Apprentice in Clear Stream Restaurant was this Deep-fried Inkscale Prawn.â Du Qingxi that was icy cold earlier revealed a brilliant smile at this moment, and she helped Chen Xi clamp up a piece of jade white prawn meat that emanated a tempting fragrance.
âBig Brother Chen Xi, do you still remember this dish. All those years ago, you prepared it for me. In the recent years, I learned to cook this dish in my free time. Try it and see if itâs to your taste.â Mu Yaoâs tender white face flushed red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment as she clamped food for Chen Xi. She didnât dare meet Chen Xiâs gaze, and she seemed like a completely different person when compared to how she was earlier.
âChen Xi, this is the wine we drank when we first met. Do you still remember its taste? Quickly have a taste of it and see if its taste has changed.â Ya Qing poured a cup of wine for Chen Xi in a composed manner, and then she stretched out her slender hand to pass it over to Chen Xi. Moreover, her clear eyes carried a smiling expression and surged with strands of sincere affection.
âChen XiâŠâ
âChen XiâŠâ
Yan Yan and Yun Na joined in as well. They clamped food and poured wine for Chen Xi while carrying affection in their gazes, and they had warm attitudes towards him. The change in their attitude was so fast that Chen Xi was slightly overwhelmed by this sudden favor.
There was a saying, the favor of a beauty is the most difficult to enjoy, and it just happened to describe Chen Xiâs feelings at this moment. Five gorgeous beauties were blushing bashfully as they served him eagerly and attentively, and if it was any other person, that person would probably drool with envy.
However, Chen Xi was slightly uneasy. This contrast was too great, and it caused him to be slightly filled with anxiety instead. Thus, he could only act mute as he held his chopstick and ate everything that came his way, and he buried his face in his bowlâŠ
As for wine, he welcomed all that came to him. It was even to the extent that he restrained his Immortal Force with hopes of stopping after getting extremely drunk, so that he could free himself from this beautiful yet slightly strange atmosphere.
Outside the hall, Chen Hao who was sneakily watching this scene opened his eyes wide while he felt admiration and envy in his heart.
Big Brotherâs technique in controlling women is really extraordinary!
But in next to no time, he was dragged away by the ear by Fei Lengcui who had an icy cold expressionâŠ
âŠ
Early in the morning on the next day, Chen Xi woke up from his drunken state, and his mind was slightly dazed.
Last night, heâd really gotten drunk, drunk to the point his body felt like mush. Even though it was utterly impossible for him to get drunk with his cultivation, heâd done so intentionallyâŠ
He had to get drunk!
Would he be able to escape the beauties that were filled with bitterness if he didnât get drunk?
Obviously, it was impossible.
Chen Xi circulated his Immortal Force. In an instant, the remaining alcohol in his body was dispersed, causing his entire body to feel refreshed and comfortable, and he couldnât help but let out a mouthful of four air.
As he sat on the bed and recalled the scenes from last night, Chen Xi still couldnât help but laugh bitterly.
Love really does harm!
âGrandfather, youâve woken up. Hereâs the towel.â A little girl that wore a flowery little dress walked over. She had clear black eyes, fair skin, and her exquisite and tranquil little face carried a slight smile.
It was Chen Yunyun. She held a moist towel that was wrung dry, and she seemed obedient and sensible as she passed it over to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi couldnât help but smile when he saw this little girl. He sat up on the bed and embraced Yunyun before kissing her on the face, and then he said, âYunyun is the best to Grandpa.â
âGrandfather, Iâll help you wipe your face.â Yunyun spoke in a clear voice, and her eyes that were bright as stars carried a wisp of anticipation.
Chen Xi naturally wouldnât refuse. He immediately grinned as he stretched out his face, and he enjoyed his granddaughterâs care while feeling extremely warm in his heart. This sort of feeling really couldnât be described with words.
It was the feeling of being a grandfather!
Yunyun wiped his face very carefully and attentively. After she finished wiping Chen Xiâs face, she stretched out her fair little hand to touch Chen Xiâs forehead, and it was very intimate.
However, Chen Xi felt that it was slightly strange, and he couldnât help but ask. âYunyun, do you frequently wipe your parentâs faces?â
Yunyun shook her head. âIâve only wiped Little Grey.â
Chen Xi was stunned. âWhoâs Little Grey?â
Yunyun suddenly held her small red lips and buried her head in Chen Xiâs embrace before she said shyly, âLittle Grey is the pet Father gave me. Heâs a Violet Eyed White Marten, and heâs extremely cute.â
Chen Xiâs face turned black.
Iâve actually received the treatment of a pet!
For a time, Chen Xi couldnât help but smile bitterly without end, and then he held Yunyun in his arms as he walked out of the room. âCome, Grandpa will take you to have breakfast.â
âGrandpa, Big Sister Qingxi, Big Sister Mu Yao, Big Sister Ya Qing, Big Sister Yan Yan, and Big Sister Yun Na asked me to ask you a few questions when you wake up.â Yunyun leaned on Chen Xiâs shoulder as she spoke to him in a clear voice.
Big Sister?
Chen Xiâs face sank. âYunyun, theyâre yourâŠâ
When he spoke up to here, he suddenly noticed that he didnât know what sort of method of address he should make Yunyun use for them.
Aunty? That wonât do. Itâs a rank lower. Grandmother? That wonât do as well. They arenât my Dao Companions yet.
When he thought like this, Chen Xi was instantly speechless, and he said in his heart,
Forget it, Yunyun is still young. Iâll let her do as she pleasesâŠ
âWhat did they ask?â Chen Xi asked casually.
Yunyun tilted her head and thought for a moment before she said swiftly, âThose Big Sisterâs actually had a single question. They asked who Su Qingyan, Xia Wei, Bei Ling, Cui Qingning, Liang Bing, AâXiu, Dian DianâŠâ
She spoke successively of a string of names, and then Yunyun gasped for breath before she successively asked a string of questions. âThey asked me to ask you who these women are, where theyâre from, what sort of relationship they have with you, and if theyâre more beautiful than Qing Xiuyi, Zhen Liuqing, and Fan YunlanâŠâ
The corners of Chen Xiâs mouth couldnât help but twitch fiercely, and he was completely speechless.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh. âYunyun, youâre still too young. You donât understand.â
Yunyun opened her clear and pure eyes wide before she said, âGrandpa, are you unhappy? Then Iâll stop asking.â
Chen Xi pinched her little nose with tender affection and said, âI knew it, Yunyun is the best to Grandpa.â
Yunyun chuckled happily. âAt any rate, itâs fine so long as Grandpa is good to Grandma.â
Grandma?
It was naturally Qing Xiuyi.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Chen An to exist, and it would naturally be impossible for Yunyun to exist as well.
However, when he thought about Qing Xiuyi, Chen Xi couldnât help but sigh in his heart. He suddenly noticed that he had too many love entanglements, yet it just so happened that heâd never faced these problems directlyâŠ
âBig Brother, everything is prepared. Come meet our clansmen and your friends with me later.â Right at this moment, Chen Hao walked over from afar.
Chen Xi instantly returned to his senses from his chaotic thoughts, and he nodded.
At this moment, heâd decided that he would take action after he met the clansmen of the Chen Clan, and once he made arrangements for everything, he would return directly to the Immortal Dimension.
The matters of the past were the past in the end, and he was bound to have a longer path to take. Perhaps when he stepped foot onto the extremes of the Grand Dao one day, he would choose to live in a carefree manner like he was now.
