Ji Lianxing’s face turned even redder.
Previously at the Chen Mansion, Chen Mo’s reactions were indeed intense, even she and the kitten couldn’t hold him back, it seemed he truly was hard to read...
Seeing the conversation veering off course, she felt embarrassed, stood up to run away but was stopped by Gu Manzhi.
"Master, where are you going?"
"I want to check on Henshui..."
"Don’t worry, with the Lord present, nothing unexpected will happen, besides, we have important matters to attend to."
"Wh-what important matters?"
"Didn’t the disciple just demonstrate for quite some time, shouldn’t there be a need to test Master’s learning outcomes?"
"What do you mean by that... uh, where are your hands going? Mischievous disciple, stop, Master is really angry now..."
...
...
Chen Mo walked out of the bedroom and unfolded his Divine Sense, covering the entire Cloudwater Hall, soon locking onto Ye Henshui’s location.
With a flash, he arrived in the bathroom.
There he saw a thin figure sitting in the pool, arms wrapped around knees, wet clothes clinging to the body, the silhouette looked very desolate.
Chen Mo stepped forward, placed a hand on her shoulder, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Ye Henshui’s body trembled slightly, lowered her head, tears rolled down, creating ripples on the water surface, she said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Chen, my heart feels so heavy..."
"I know." Looking at that pitiful sight, Chen Mo sighed and sat down beside her.
Receiving such astonishing information all of a sudden, it was naturally hard to accept. Ye Henshui was still inherently childlike and innocent, unable to digest it immediately, was quite normal.
Ye Henshui leaned on Chen Mo’s shoulder, murmuring: "Actually, I don’t blame Master. If it weren’t for her, I would have already died in the wilderness years ago."
"Over the years, Master treated me like her own, raised me into adulthood, and even taught me the Cultivation Method. Calling her my second mother wouldn’t be an exaggeration, and this kindness may be one I can never repay in this lifetime."
"The problem is, who should I really blame?"
Chen Mo understood this feeling.
Ye Henshui originally also had a complete family, with parents who loved her dearly, but now it’s shattered, and the culprit responsible had long since died, leaving no outlet for revenge.
"At least you still have a sister, and you have me." Chen Mo held her gentle hand and softly said, "In the future, we will have our own family and our children. You’re not just the Ye Family’s orphan, you will be my wife and the mother of our children. There are many things waiting for you to do, why dwell on the past?"
[・_・?]
Ye Henshui’s breath hitched.
She looked up at Chen Mo, tear stains still on her pretty face, sniffling, foolishly asked, "What did you say? Wife? And have children?"
Chen Mo frowned slightly, feigning displeasure, "What, you don’t want to?"
Ye Henshui’s cheeks flushed like ripe apples, stammering, "Of course not, no, I mean of course I do... it’s just a bit sudden, I’m not mentally prepared..."
Chen Mo’s lips curled into a smile, reaching to embrace her slender waist, "And your body? Is it prepared?"
"Lord..."
In Ye Henshui’s chest, it felt like a small deer was jumping wildly, the earlier waves of sorrow had long dissipated.
All along, she felt more like an "add-on," that Chen Mo only thought of her whenever with Gu Manzhi... yet unexpectedly, Chen Mo had long planned a future with her.
So in his eyes, she was also someone important.
Her heart filled with tender emotions, the missing blank spaces slowly being filled.
Ye Henshui, holding back shyness, put her arms around his neck, tentatively nibbling on his ear lobe, murmuring with breath like orchids: "Why don’t you personally check, Mr. Chen?"
"Here?" Chen Mo raised an eyebrow slightly, "Aren’t you afraid someone might come in?"
Earnestly, Ye Henshui responded, "As long as I’m with you, I’m not afraid of anything."
