Chapter 209: Chapter 126: The Scentless Begonia (Part 3)

Additionally, it would be best to wait until after getting married to find a good opportunity to explain the truth to Chu Xuan; otherwise, if I keep it hidden for a lifetime, I might find it difficult to bear, feeling a constant knot in my heart.

Chu Xuan hesitated upon hearing this, "Perhaps it’s better to wait a while longer before speaking."

Haitang was instantly a bit upset, "Are you unwilling? Or do you not like me at all, and have no feelings for me?"

Chu Xuan quickly explained, "No, that’s not it. It’s just so sudden, you need to give me some time to think."

Gu Haitang’s expression softened at these words; she bit her lip, feeling she was being a bit too hasty, almost like she was forcing a marriage.

Thus, she lowered her head with a bit of shyness and said, "Alright, take your time to consider. After all, I’ve already decided that I will marry no one but you."

Chu Xuan was deeply touched by her words, and couldn’t help but embrace Haitang, whispering, "I will definitely remember your sentiments."

Gu Haitang couldn’t resist standing on tiptoe to initiate a kiss on the man’s lips, disregarding any sense of modesty.

At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind: Chu Xuan is my man! No one else should even think about taking him away.

Chu Xuan and Haitang kissed passionately, seemingly insatiable, only wanting more and more from each other...

Truthfully, Chu Xuan was still quite moved, having someone as outstanding as Gu Haitang, a blessed woman, wholeheartedly love him—the kind of beautiful, dreamy scene he could never imagine back in his previous life on Earth.

Of course, while moved, he still felt that the pace was a bit too fast.

First the kiss, then the confession, now directly fast-forward to marriage? Haitang, are you really that worried about me being taken away by other women...

In conclusion, Chu Xuan still thought that it shouldn’t be so rushed; they should at least be together for a few years first.

For cultivators with long lifespans, it might even be prudent to be together for a dozen or twenty years, becoming thoroughly acquainted with each other before discussing the serious matter of "becoming Dao companions."

Of course, Chu Xuan absolutely dared not voice this thought now, as Haitang was eagerly anticipating possessing him entirely; if you dampen her enthusiasm at this moment, she would definitely become upset and quarrel with you. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

...

"Bang~!" Ji Mingyu slammed her hand down, smashing the white jade cloud bed beneath her!

She stood up, her teeth clenched tightly, shaking with anger, as an almost undisguised murderous intent shot from her gaze, nearly shattering the water mirror in the air.

The little snow mink was so frightened that it scampered away, swearing it had never seen its master so furious in its entire life! Couldn’t even imagine she would have such a wrathful expression.

In the mink’s view, no matter how angry the master was, she was at most terrifyingly cold, after all, she was the Frost Snow Goddess, the icy beauty.

Just like before, when Gu Haitang first kissed Chu Xuan, the master was extremely angry but her expression was still that of silently enduring.

Until just now, with Haitang launching wave after wave of offense towards Chu Xuan, almost making him agree to return and marry her immediately, the master’s anger reached its peak and finally exploded entirely.

"Good, good, good!" Ji Mingyu said the word "good" thrice, regaining her cold demeanor, "Seems I have indeed underestimated you."

Back when the three of them were in East Immortal Mansion, Ming Yu had analyzed Qingqing, Qin Mengyao, and Gu Haitang, these three women with ambiguous connections to Chu Xuan.

The conclusion was: Gu Haitang ranked the lowest in Chu Xuan’s heart, completely insignificant.

Ji Mingyu never expected that Haitang would seize the initiative in the end!

At first glance, this woman seemed foolish, but unexpectedly, upon realizing her foolishness, she immediately started advancing aggressively, catching Ming Yu off guard.

What should be done next? Leave it alone? What if Chu Xuan actually goes back and marries her? That would be the end!

Ji Mingyu could barely resist the urge to rush over immediately, although the Ruo Wood Secret Realm is currently open only to the sixth realm, she would still break through if she had to.

Stay calm, stay calm.

Ming Yu took a deep breath, don’t forget about Chu Xuan’s tendencies.

She knew him well, just as he knew her.

Based on Ji Mingyu’s understanding of Chu Xuan, this guy would definitely stall as long as possible, it’s impossible for him to marry Haitang and become Dao companions so quickly.

Better to watch and wait for now, wait until they come out of the secret realm, after all, they shouldn’t be doing it on the spot, right?!

...

Long after, their lips finally parted, at a moment much different from their previous perilous situation, giving an illusion that continuing onward would pose no issue.

Gu Haitang’s cheeks were flushed, breathing lightly, her eyes filled with misty allure.

To be honest, Chu Xuan was deeply tempted, wanting to advance further with the beauty in his arms, but he still restrained himself—remember, they’re still within the Ruo Wood Secret Realm, not the time to be reckless, cautious not to let joy turn into sorrow.

Moreover, he knew full well, despite Gu Haitang’s current initiative, she was still a very modest woman at heart, one who would absolutely not do anything here.

If Chu Xuan really entertained such thoughts, it would only lessen Haitang’s good impression of him.

Essentially, Gu Haitang was a woman entrenched in traditional values, one who wouldn’t consider such things before officially marrying.

Chu Xuan released her from his embrace seriously saying, "We’ve talked here for quite some time, and with many hidden dangers in the secret realm, we cannot stay long; how about we leave now?"

Gu Haitang felt a bit reluctant, she wanted to continue talking with Chu Xuan like this, kissing and embracing until the end of time.

However, she also knew that this wish couldn’t be realized at the moment, better to wait until returning and marrying before saying more, so she nodded.
