Chapter 44 Kissing the Corner of the Mouth



Song's father quickly came over with tea and poured tea for Song Cha and the other two.

Song Cha picked up the teacup and started drinking tea.

The taste of the tea was not very good, far worse than the tea Song Cha drank at Chu Man's place.

Song Cha took a sip and put the teacup down.

Shao Yumiao and Chu Man didn't even pick up the teacup.

When Father Song saw that Shao Yumiao and Chu Man hadn't drunk any water, he quickly put on a warm smile and said flatteringly, "You two fairies are also immortals from the world of immortal cultivation, right? It's truly an honor for our humble residence to have you two visit us!"

Shao Yumiao nodded slightly, Chu Man nodded casually, and neither of them said a word.

In fact, both of them are quite perceptive people.

The reason why they were silent now was because they had noticed that Song's father was not so sincere towards Song Cha.

Since Song's father did not treat Song Cha sincerely, he didn't know why they went to talk to him.

Chu Man felt that even if she had to go meet the parents, she would have to meet the parents who were truly good to Song Cha.

Although Shao Yumiao has low emotional intelligence, she is very sensitive to people's emotions.

Just by looking at Song's father's attitude towards Song Cha, she felt that Song's father was not good to Song Cha.

Seeing that Chu Man and Shao Yumiao didn't say anything, Song's father felt a little embarrassed.

But he had no choice but to endure it. After all, the two people in front of him were immortals, and as a mortal, he had no way to go against them.

But... Father Song looked at Song Cha, wanting him to say something to ease the atmosphere.

But Song Cha was staring at the teacup, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Cha'er, you haven't eaten yet, I'll ask the housekeeper to arrange the meal." Father Song began to change the subject.

Song Cha: “…”

Before Song Cha could speak, Shao Yumiao spoke first: "Uncle, Cha Cha is a cultivator now and cannot eat worldly food." If she wants to eat, she can only eat pure vegetarian food of the level of Juxianlou.

Father Song: “…”

The atmosphere did not ease, and Song's father's face became even stiffer.

In this rigid situation, he was simply unable to sit still.

Just as Song's father was struggling to decide what to say next, the door to the living room opened again.

The person who walked in this time was a woman in white plain clothes. She had a pretty face, but there was a kind of pitiful beauty about her.

This is Song Cha’s stepmother, the new wife who was promoted from a concubine.

She walked up to Song's father and said, "Master, I heard that the third young lady who went out to practice has returned."

Here, she turned around and looked at Song Cha.

Song Cha also looked at her stepmother, Wang.

If Song tea is green tea, then Wang tea should be a white lotus.

But unlike Song Cha's rank, Wang's Lotus rank is relatively low, and she can only pretend to be pitiful. Sometimes when she sees Wang pretending to be pitiful, Song Cha feels that her IQ is insulted.

Perhaps this is the reason why Wang had to become a concubine to her father, a minor official, and had to wait until the original wife passed away before she could be promoted to the main wife.

Because of her poor acting skills, only Song's father, who was half-blind and could identify White Lotus, could not see it.

However, Song Cha is still very good at pretending.

In the past, people pretended casually, but now that they have status, connections, and wealth, they pretend just for fun.

"Madam." Song Cha appeared to be friendly but looked at Wang with amusement in his heart.

Hearing Song Cha call her that, Wang was a little flattered.

She looked at Song Cha pitifully and said, "Third Miss, you have achieved great success in cultivating immortals now. Can you bring Hao'er to the immortal mountain as well?"

The person Wang was talking about was her son, Song Hao.

Wang looked pitiful and seemed quite sincere.

This surprised Song Cha a little. He didn't expect that Wang could be sincere sometimes.

But considering his identity as an immortal cultivator, she was not so surprised.

In this world, mortals all yearn for cultivators. Many even call them immortals and kneel down to pay homage to them upon seeing them.

Song Cha lowered her eyes. "But, Brother Song Hao was found to have no spiritual roots. I'm afraid that when he gets to the mountain... he'll be bullied by others."

"He is your brother, the Third Miss. Who would bully him?" Wang was a little dissatisfied when she heard Song Cha's words, but she still did not dare to show her dissatisfaction and continued to look at Song Cha pleadingly.

Being looked at like this by Wang, Song Cha was in a good mood.

In the past, Wang would only look at Song's father with such pleading eyes. This was the first time she looked at him like this.

Song Cha: "But... the Immortal Mountain is too dangerous..."

"Mrs. Song, please don't go too far." Chu Man interrupted Song Cha, "Qingfeng Sect won't let a mortal enter."

Chu Man was very angry. After confronting Wang, she was still very angry.

Chu Man came to see Song Cha's parents this time because she wanted to meet Song Cha's parents.

But he didn't expect that when he arrived, he didn't see the family members who were kind to Song Cha. Instead, he met two blood-sucking insects who didn't like Song Cha but approached Song Cha for profit.

When I think of Song Cha in the breeze

When someone inside told her expectantly that she was going home to see her parents whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Are these the parents that Song Cha is worried about?

When they saw Song Cha coming, they didn't care about the hardships Song Cha had gone through during her eight years of cultivation. They only asked about her realm and whether she could take her beloved son to the fairy mountain. They didn't even ask if it was hard for Song Cha to be alone outside for the past eight years.

How could Chu Man accept this?

"Cha'er." Chu Man held Song Cha's hand, "Come with me."

Song Cha, whose hand was held by Chu Man, felt a little strange, "Master, where are you taking me?"

Chu Man didn't say a word and pulled Song Cha out of the Song family's gate.

At the last moment before she finally left the Song family, she took out one thousand taels of gold from her storage bag and placed it on the ground in the Song family courtyard.

The Song family was just a family of minor officials, and the couple didn't treat Song Cha well. They probably didn't spend much money to raise Song Cha.

However, cultivators value cause and effect. As a master, she gave the Song family one thousand taels of gold, dozens of times the amount in compensation, to sever Song Cha's ties with the Song family.

Chu Man finally stopped only after she had dragged Song Cha far away from the Song family.

"Cha'er, from now on you will sever all ties with the Song family and have no further contact." Chu Man's voice firmly made the decision for Song Cha.

Song Cha: “…”

Song Cha was a bit bewildered by the decision. She felt something was amiss. Why did things unfold so unexpectedly after she had just gone to the Song family's living room to have a sip of tea and refused her stepmother's request to take her brother, whom she disliked, to Qingfengmen?

What kind of development has led to this point for no reason?

However, Song Cha still has to question what he doubts.

Agreeing to Chu Man's words outright was certainly respectful of her teacher, but severing ties with a blood-related relative out of hand seemed rather callous.

If Chu Man looks back one day, her impression of her may not be so good.

"Master, those are my parents." Song Cha looked at Chu Man pleadingly, "Master, can you tell me the reason?"

"Why?" Chu Man pinched Song Cha's chin. "Cha'er, you value family ties so much, so much so that you want to maintain this relationship even if you're just being used?"

Song Cha: “…”

Seeing Song Cha not saying anything, Chu Man became even angrier.

She lifted Song Cha's chin and kissed the corner of his mouth. "Since you care so much, I will be your relative."
