Chapter 28 The Witchcraft Boy 27

Seeing her obediently eating the pastry from his hand with her head down, he smiled even more sweetly, "Qiuqiu, is it delicious?"

"It's delicious." Xu Qiuqiu looked up at him and smiled sweetly.

Looking at her smile, Qi Chen felt his mood improve. He gently wiped away the pastry residue from the corner of her mouth, then licked the finger he had used to wipe her face. "Mmm, it is indeed sweet."

[Ding! The female lead's happiness level has increased by 10%, currently at 60%]

Xu Qiuqiu was stunned by his actions. Was there really such a thing?

Then her face started to heat up again. Why was this guy getting more and more flirtatious?

003 covered its eyes with its little paws as it looked at the scene in front of it. So sweet!

Last night, when the second male lead came to find the host, it was blocked again. However, every time it was blocked, it felt both happy and unhappy.

What makes it happy is that its happiness level increases by 10% every time this happens; what makes it unhappy is that it has to sit there bored again. It really wants to see what its host did with the second male lead.

However, thinking about the increase in happiness points, it gradually became happy again. The host had not been in this world for long, and the mission was progressing quickly. There were only 40% left to complete, and it was so excited that it rolled around.

Yun Yulu stood there watching the two who were so close. She had just witnessed Qi Chen's expression change. One moment he looked like he was about to kill someone, but the moment Xiao Qiu'er said a word to him, he immediately returned to his innocent and harmless self. It was truly an eye-opener.

This time she didn't say anything more and turned to leave. Seeing that Xiao Qiu'er had him completely under her control, she no longer needed to worry about Xiao Qiu'er being bullied.

After the annoying person left, Qi Chen felt even better, and he continued to feed Qiuqiu, "Qiuqiu, have another bite."

Seeing the irresistible look in his eyes, Xu Qiuqiu had no choice but to eat a few more bites. She had only wanted to distract him, but why was he so addicted to feeding her?

If she keeps eating like this, she won't need to eat regular meals anymore; she'll be full just from the pastries.

However, this situation did not last long, and someone came to rescue her soon after.

Shui Rou, dressed in white, came looking for her. "Junior Sister, something terrible has happened!"

Qi Chen became displeased again. Why did someone always have to bother them?

Seeing Shui Rou's anxiety, Xu Qiuqiu comforted her, "Senior sister, don't rush, tell me slowly."

"Junior Sister, Qi Gunan from the Holy Healer Valley has arrived at the Hehuan Sect."

Xu Qiuqiu asked instinctively, "Are you here to apologize and admit your mistake?"

Shui Rou glanced at Qi Chen, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "No, he brought betrothal gifts, saying he wants to marry you, Junior Sister."

"?" Xu Qiuqiu looked at Shui Rou in surprise; this news almost shocked her to death.

Is the male lead out of his mind?

Before she could think further, she noticed that the person who had just been all lovey-dovey with her suddenly turned cold and became suffocating after hearing those words.

A murderous intent slowly gathered in Qi Chen's eyes; Qiu Qiu could only be his…

At the entrance of the Hehuan Sect, there were rows of boxes tied with red ribbons.

When Xu Qiuqiu arrived, she found that her master and senior sisters were all there.

Qi Gunan's eyes lit up when he saw Xu Qiuqiu appear, and he said gently, "Xiao Qiu, I'm here."

Qi Chen looked at Qi Gu Nan with a sinister gaze. He thought of Qiu Qiu saying that she used to like him, and he was filled with insane jealousy. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have punished him so simply back then; he should have just killed him.

"Propose marriage? You'd better kneel down and apologize to Xiao Qiu'er first, or don't even dream about it." Yun Yulu said with a cold snort.

“That’s right, that’s right,” Shui Rou echoed.

Then the other female disciples also joined in the mockery.

"You bullied our junior sister and still have the audacity to come here and ask for her hand in marriage?"

"Kneel down and kowtow to apologize, and while you're at it, cut off one of your own hands, and I might consider sparing your life."

"You're really fearless, daring to come alone. Don't you even know who you are? You think you're worthy of asking to marry our junior sister?"

This was the first time Qi Gu Nan had been so humiliated and insulted, and he was so angry that he almost lost his composure.

These shameless women have the nerve to criticize him? They don't even know what kind of people they are. These vile witches have been with countless men; they're truly disgusting.

He tried to calm himself down. He needed to stay calm and composed. He should marry Xu Xiaoqiu first and then figure out how to deal with them later.

Adjusting his facial expression, Qi Gu Nan smiled gently, "Sisters, I truly love Xiao Qiu. As for the matter of bullying Xiao Qiu, it simply doesn't exist. Xiao Qiu and I have long been in love. I've come here simply to fulfill the promise I made to Xiao Qiu back then."

How could he even have the nerve to say that they were of one mind? Xu Qiuqiu felt utterly disgusted.

Before she could even refute, her master, Lan Rui, smiled and said coldly, "As you can see, our Hehuan Sect doesn't really welcome you. A marriage proposal? That's just wishful thinking. If you're here to apologize and make peace, then we can talk about this properly. If not, then you've come here to die."

Lan Rui had been observing Qi Gunan. He was clearly red with anger just a moment ago, but he became gentle again in a short while. He was obviously a hypocrite with a sanctimonious air, not even as good as the boy Xiao Qiu brought back.

Hearing Lan Rui's threatening tone, Qi Gu Nan was truly furious. In all his years, he had never experienced anything like this before, and he felt that these women were really ungrateful.

He didn't say anything more to them, and turned his gaze to Xu Qiuqiu, "Xiao Qiu, are you still resentful towards me? Don't be angry with me, I've come here today to sincerely ask you to marry me."

Before Xu Qiuqiu could get too angry, Qi Chen couldn't stand it anymore. He was already furious when he saw Qi Gu Nan staring at his Qiuqiu with such disgusting eyes.

His mind kept screaming, "Kill him! Kill him!" The veins on his hands bulged, and his eyes grew colder and colder. Everyone who tried to take Qiuqiu from him deserved to die! He strode towards Qi Gu Nan.

Before he had taken two steps, he was pulled by a pair of soft hands.

Xu Qiuqiu grabbed Qi Chen's hand and glanced at Qi Gunan with disdain. "Resent you my ass. Angry? I feel disgusted just looking at you."

Anyway, this is her family home, so there's no need to pretend anymore. She can just tear off the mask and be honest. Besides, Qi Chen suddenly turned evil for some reason, so there's even less need for her to pretend that she's a pitiful girl who was deceived.

Qi Chen listened to Xu Qiuqiu's words, turned around and looked at her. At this moment, her eyes were gentle, and her watery eyes reflected him. She parted her red lips slightly and said, "Qi Chen, don't listen to his nonsense."

He felt the noise that had just given him a headache had disappeared, and all he could see was her.

When Qi Gunan heard Xu Qiuqiu say such heartless words, he was shocked and then furious. What had happened? How could Xu Xiaoqiu be such a different person, not at all like the one he used to know?

The way she looked at him was unfamiliar and disgusted, and he felt a surge of anger that made his chest ache.

He watched as Xu Qiuqiu held Qi Chen's hand, and the two gazed at each other affectionately. He was so angry he almost suffered internal injuries.
