"An'er, you're blushing."
Zhao Chen'an panicked and pushed Qin Beixuan away, then fled out like a greased lightning.
Normally, it was he who bullied Qin Beixuan. Now that Qin Beixuan had taken the initiative for once, he really couldn't handle it.
Seeing Zhao Chen'an go out, Qin Beixuan was about to follow when suddenly a sharp pain shot through his head.
It was still that strange feeling and those strange memories...
In the yard, Zhao Chen'an tilted his head back and patted his cheeks, forcing himself to calm down. He told himself not to let his mind wander.
"Host, so you can have a day of being outmaneuvered too," the system taunted. "Fortune takes turns, and the ways of Heaven are just."
Zhao Chen'an rolled his eyes and retorted, "Little thing, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute." Zhao Chen'an sighed regretfully. "It's such a nice thing, but it just has to talk."
The system immediately argued, "No, host, I have something to say. I can sense that there's always a strange spiritual energy fluctuation in the Hun Tian Palace. It's very weak, but it's definitely not something good."
Zhao Chen'an's expression changed slightly. "Can you find out the exact location?"
The system's words shocked Zhao Chen'an. It said, "The whole Hun Tian Palace."
It seemed that things were getting more and more complicated... Zhao Chen'an pondered over the system's hint.
What on earth was it that could be hidden throughout the whole Hun Tian Palace?
It seemed that he had to find an opportunity to investigate.
"Master Immortal, are you thinking about something?"
Zhao Chen'an didn't notice that Yi Liang had quietly walked behind him at some point.
Zhao Chen'an came back to his senses and asked, "Where's your sister?"
Yi Liang replied, "She's resting. I'm planning to go to the market to buy some pear blossom crispy cakes for my sister. They're her favorite."
At the mention of pear blossom crispy cakes, Zhao Chen'an even started to drool. He also wanted to eat, but what if he didn't have any money?
Coincidentally, the big spender Qin Beixuan came out at this moment. Seeing the group of young men gathered at the door, he asked curiously, "What are you guys talking about?"
Hearing the voice of the rich man, Zhao Chen'an immediately threw the matter of being flirted with just now out of his mind and trotted to Qin Beixuan's side.
Zhao Chen'an coquettishly said, "Senior brother, Yi Liang is going to buy pear blossom crispy cakes. I want to eat too. Will you buy them for me?"
Qin Beixuan frowned and said embarrassedly, "I have something important to do. Why don't you go and buy them yourself?"
Zhao Chen'an felt a bit disappointed. "But I..."
"Senior brother! So you're here!" Zhao Chen'an's words were interrupted. It was Zhu Heyu who came. He happily threw himself into Qin Beixuan's arms.
Qin Beixuan firmly caught him, as if he was afraid that he would fall, and said indulgently, "Slow down. You're like a child."
Zhu Heyu scratched his face with a smile and then noticed Zhao Chen'an beside Qin Beixuan and an unfamiliar young man.
Zhu Heyu pretended to be apologetic and said, "Sorry, second senior brother. Heyu just noticed you here. Who is this?" He was referring to Yi Liang.
Yi Liang introduced himself, "My name is Yi Liang."
Zhu Heyu gave a gentle smile and said softly, "Hello, Young Master Yi. I'm Zhu Heyu from Purple Star Mountain."
Yi Liang looked at Zhu Heyu in surprise and said, "You're the reincarnation of the Phoenix God Lord?! I... I've seen the real person?!"
While talking to Yi Liang, Zhu Heyu was still holding Qin Beixuan's hand. "Yes. Are you going out?"
Zhao Chen'an sneered mockingly in his heart. Whenever Zhu Heyu appeared, the focus would always shift to him. Who asked him to be the Phoenix God Lord who was above all others?
Zhao Chen'an took a quick glance at Qin Beixuan and found that Qin Beixuan had been paying attention to Zhu Heyu. Zhao Chen'an only felt his heart aching.
Why was senior brother always only looking at junior brother...
Zhao Chen'an slowly said to Qin Beixuan, "I'll first..." But then Zhu Heyu seemed to be deliberately against him. He slightly stepped to the side and blocked Zhao Chen'an's view.
Zhu Heyu smiled sweetly and coquettishly said to Qin Beixuan, "Senior brother, Yi Liang is going to the market to buy something. I also want to go to the market. Will you accompany me?"
Refuse him! Qin Beixuan, refuse him!!
Zhao Chen'an was almost going crazy.
"Okay." Qin Beixuan answered without any hesitation.
Zhao Chen'an: "………"
Didn't you just say that you had something very important to do, senior brother?
Zhao Chen'an couldn't ask. What right did he have to question Qin Beixuan?
Zhao Chen'an watched helplessly as Qin Beixuan was happily pulled out of the yard by Zhu Heyu without even looking back or leaving a single glance for Zhao Chen'an.
"Host... I can apply for money from the headquarters for you. How about the system buying you the pear blossom crispy cakes?"
It was really ridiculous. At this critical moment, the only one who cared about the casually mentioned pear blossom crispy cakes was a machine, a system.
Zhao Chen'an plopped down on the swing in the yard and kicked his feet to make the swing sway slightly.
Zhao Chen'an was in a very low mood and had completely lost his appetite. He shook his head and said, "No, thanks. I suddenly don't want to eat anymore."
Zhao Chen'an was clearly very strong. He had been reborn so many times and had never cried once. Why did he feel like crying so much just because of a single word from Qin Beixuan this time?
Tears welled up in his eyes. The person on the swing stubbornly wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
Suddenly, the swing was pushed by something and started to swing back and forth. Zhao Chen'an let out a cry of surprise and immediately stretched out his legs to steady the swing. When he turned his head, he found that it was Yi Simiao who was smiling happily.
Didn't Yi Liang just say that she had gone to sleep?
"Sister, why are your eyes red?" Yi Simiao tilted her head and asked.
Zhao Chen'an didn't answer but changed the subject. He asked, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Yi Simiao pouted angrily and said, "Just now there was a bad guy who kept laughing in my yard so loudly. It was so noisy. How could I sleep?"
She must be talking about Zhu Heyu.
After being told this by Yi Simiao, Zhao Chen'an's mood suddenly improved a lot. He pinched Yi Simiao's nose and asked, "Do you still want to sleep now?"
Yi Simiao shook her head and reached out to hug Zhao Chen'an's neck. She said, "Will sister play with me?"
"Okay."
Zhao Chen'an accompanied Yi Simiao for a long time. After seeing the little girl fall asleep in his arms when she was tired, he put her back on the bed and then tiptoed out.
Not long after Zhao Chen'an returned to the yard, Qin Beixuan and the others came back. Zhao Chen'an had been staring at Qin Beixuan. The other person seemed to have felt his gaze and pushed away Zhu Heyu who was holding his arm, then walked straight towards Zhao Chen'an.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Chen'an looked at Qin Beixuan in front of the window and said unkindly.
Qin Beixuan didn't answer but just put a paper bag in front of Zhao Chen'an. A faint sweet smell wafted out from the paper bag.
Zhao Chen'an immediately understood. This must be the pear blossom crispy cakes that Qin Beixuan had bought.
