Huanhuan led her through the territory of the demons, attracting the gazes of many beasts. When they saw Xing Chen appear, they were all frightened and knelt down.
Seeing this, Huanhuan complained softly, âLook, I told you it was better for you to maintain your youthful appearance. Now no matter where you go, you attract a lot of attention. It doesnât suit me at all. I want to be low-key.â
Xing Chen endured it again and again, but he couldnât help but mock, âDo you think youâre keeping a low profile? I wonder who rushed into the territory of the demons aggressively back then and turned this place upside down.â
Huanhuan coughed lightly. âWho hasnât been young and frivolous?â
âItâs only been less than 10 days. How could you have been young and frivolous?â
âItâs just an analogy. Why do you like to be so serious? Youâre not cute at all.â
â¦
While the two of them were talking as they walked, Tao Wei and Sang Ye rushed over after hearing the news.
As soon as Tao Wei saw Xing Chen, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully. âGreetings, Father!â
Xing Chen responded casually.
Tao Wei got up, but he still kept his head lowered, not daring to look at him.
Sang Ye bowed simply. His figure was tall and slender, and his long black hair reached his waist. His cold temperament revealed a sense of beauty.
As soon as Huanhuan saw him, she let go of Xing Chenâs hand and ran over. âSang Ye~â
Sang Ye smiled. âMhm.â
Huanhuan couldnât help but smile too.
âAs expected of my husband. The more I look at him, the more handsome he becomes. I want to pounce on him and lick him~â
Xing Chen sensed the heat in her gaze, and his expression darkened. His good mood disappeared.
He said coldly, âHave you seen enough of him?â
Huanhuan quickly retracted her gaze and touched her nose resentfully.
In order not to make Xing Chen explode, she had to suppress the itching thoughts in her heart for the time being. She pretended to ask, âDo you know if thereâs a market nearby?â
Sang Ye was puzzled. âWhy are you asking this?â
âWe want to walk around and shop for some things.â
âThereâs no market nearby. If you want to buy something, you have to go to the underground city. Many beasts set up stalls there to sell things. The underground city is relatively far from here. You donât know the way. Let me send you there.â
Huanhuan was so happy that her eyes curved into crescents. âSure, sure!â
Xing Chen saw her smile and found it especially blinding.
Why could she smile so brightly at other male beasts?
Why wasnât he the only one who could see her smile?!
Xing Chen suddenly regretted it.
He shouldnât have agreed to let her out. He shouldnât have let her meet with the others.
He wanted to go back.
After Huanhuan finished talking to Sang Ye, she turned around and called Xing Chen to leave with her. However, she realized that his emotions had become very low. The negative emotions all over his body were so strong that they could almost materialize.
She quickly called out to him, âXing Chen! Xing Chen, whatâs wrong?â
Xing Chen grabbed her hand and turned to leave.
Huanhuan staggered two steps and quickly asked, âWhere are you pulling me to?â
Xing Chen didnât look back. âHome.â
âBut we havenât bought anything yet!â
âNo need for that now.â
He didnât want to go anywhere now. He just wanted her to go back with him.
Huanhuan stood rooted to the ground. âIt wasnât easy for me to come out. Canât I go back only after buying the things?â
Xing Chenâs gaze shifted between her and Sang Ye. He asked darkly, âDo you really just want to buy things?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âDonât you just want to take this opportunity to have a tryst with your old lover? Why use me as a cover?!â
Huanhuan didnât know whether to laugh or cry. âFirst, Sang Ye is my mate, not an old lover. Second, if we want to have a tryst, would we still bring a third wheel like you along? Third, I asked Sang Ye to bring us to the underground city because he knows the way. If you know the way, we donât have to bring him along.â
Xing Chen was skeptical. âReally?â
âYeah.â
Xing Chen thought to himself, âWe just have to go to the underground city, right? I can easily find the place.â
He said, âIâll take you. You donât have to be led by others.â
The word âothersâ made Sang Ye an outsider.
