Meanwhile, Zu'an emerged from the study looking dejected, all alone, and felt an unprecedented sense of loneliness.

The Chu couple were having a private conversation with Chu Chuyan, asking her for more details about the secret realm.

Although Chu Huanzhao had just spoken up for him, he was still angry because he had forgotten about the gift.

Even Xue'er isn't with the Chu family anymore, otherwise I could still bicker with her.

As for Cheng Shouping, forget about that scoundrel. Whatever I say to him will be known all over the world by the next day.

Looking at the bright moon in the sky, I was filled with melancholy.

An ancient poem says, "I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon, and lower my head to think of my hometown." In his previous life, he could hardly understand this feeling, since he could contact his family by phone or video call at any time, and it was very convenient to go home by plane or motor vehicle.

The rapid development of technology makes it difficult for modern people to understand the nostalgia of the ancients, until he came to another world, especially after Qin Wanru targeted him many times.

He finally understood that the Chu family was not his home after all.

Overwhelmed by homesickness, Zu An let out a long sigh.

It seems like it's time to think about leaving!

He had thought about this question before, but at that time he had just transmigrated and knew nothing about this world. He didn't have a penny to his name, so leaving rashly would not have been a wise choice.

But things are different now. He has hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in wealth, and he has also officially become a cultivator. Although his cultivation level is not high, he should have no problem protecting himself. Moreover, he has secured a position as a teacher at Bright Moon Academy. By all accounts, he can be independent...

Just as his thoughts were drifting, a pleasant voice suddenly came to his ear: "What are you thinking about?"

Zu An turned around and found that Chu Chuyan was standing behind him at some point.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down to her waist, making her skin appear even whiter than snow. The tranquil moonlight bathed her in a holy glow, making her seem like an ethereal fairy descended from heaven.

At this moment, she was looking at him with a pair of beautiful, misty eyes, her gaze as vast as the misty waves and as boundless as the starry sky.

Zuan secretly admired her. As expected of the recognized number one beauty in Brightmoon City, every inch of her skin and every look in her eyes could drive countless men crazy.

"I wasn't thinking about anything." Despite being amazed, Zu'an no longer had the same teasing mood as before.

Chu Chuyan also had a complicated expression. She had been observing from the side and noticed that Zu An was shrouded in a sense of sorrow. You know, this guy has always been a carefree and optimistic person, so it's easy to imagine how distressed he was.

"I'm really sorry about what happened just now. My mother didn't mean any harm. She was just too worried about me, and that's just her personality, so what she said was a bit hurtful. Please don't take it to heart," Chu Chuyan explained.

Zuan was somewhat surprised, not expecting her to say these things to him. He knew that she used to be very aloof and rarely spoke to him, let alone explained anything.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face: "I'm going to spend my whole life with you, not with her, so naturally I won't care."

Chu Chuyan blushed slightly. It seemed she had worried about him for nothing. This guy was still as shameless as ever.

For some reason, she had a strange feeling that his words just now were like flirting with her mother, but she immediately realized that the idea was too absurd and quickly put it out of her mind.

"It's good that you don't mind. You've worked hard these past few days, go back and get some rest." Chu Chuyan said before turning and leaving.

After a while, she suddenly stopped and turned around to look at the man behind her with a surprised expression: "Why are you following me?"

Zuan shrugged: "Didn't you tell me to go back and rest?"

Chu Chuyan frowned slightly: "Then why are you following me? Your room is over there, right?"

Zuan was surprised: "Wife, you haven't forgotten, have you? You promised us in the secret realm that we'd share a room when we got back. I thought about it and realized my room is too small. It would be too uncomfortable for you to stay there. Your room is bigger, so I'll move in..."

Listening to him leisurely planning how to arrange the house and what furniture to move in, Chu Chuyan felt her head was about to explode: "When did I ever agree... to live with you?"

Zu An looked at her strangely: "You haven't forgotten, have you? No, you're a famous cultivation genius who can remember everything you see. It seems you're going to renege on your promise."

"I..." Chu Chuyan finally remembered that she seemed to have said something similar at the time, and her face instantly turned red. "No, the situation was special at the time, and... and I didn't completely agree."

"That's not very interesting," Zu An said, immediately dissatisfied. "The dignified Miss Chu doesn't keep her word. Why don't I find others to judge this and let everyone say what should be done!"

After saying that, he made a move to leave.

"Hey, no!" Chu Chuyan panicked. She was always thin-skinned, and if this got out, she would want to crawl into a hole and hide.

Seeing Zu An's resolute departure, she felt a sudden urgency, a chill rising to her throat, and then she coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Noticing her unusual behavior, Zu'an was startled and hurriedly came back to support her: "What's wrong with you? I was just saying it casually. You don't have to be so anxious that you're about to vomit blood."

He then noticed several unmelted ice cubes among the bloodstains on the ground, and was momentarily stunned.

Just as I was about to ask her a question, I noticed that she suddenly went limp and fell to the side.
