Chapter 418 The Kind That Can't Be Coaxed
Let's just forget about it, as long as these people stop trying to take advantage of us.
And right now, the most important thing is...
Hua Li silently pulled Yan Xi's collar up a little. How should he respond when he comes back from his escapades to his wives?
It was obvious that Wen Jin's good mood, which he had maintained for several days, vanished at this moment.
Luo Chuan, standing beside him, also had a cold look in his heterochromatic eyes beneath his mask.
Only Lian Zhuo raised one palm and uttered a Buddhist chant: "Come in and we'll talk. Hua Li, what do you plan to do?"
King Pear breathed a sigh of relief, glanced gratefully at Lian Zhuo, and said firmly, "Of course we won't accept them. This is our shared home, why bring in so many random people? It's a waste of money, effort, and noise."
Luo Chuan glanced at Lian Zhuo, then looked back at Hua Li.
"What? The little money-grubber has stopped hoarding money?"
"Making money is my hobby. But now that I'm financially independent, there's no need for me to suffer without effort or make myself get up at 8 every day."
Huali strolled into the courtyard, looking around nervously, but didn't go inside as usual. She simply stood in the middle of the courtyard, kicking pebbles behind her back, occasionally glancing at the group, clearly wanting to say something but holding back.
Feng Yi and Xia Ge exchanged glances, then grabbed Zhao Heng, Xiao Ta, and Luo Shen Shu, and quickly fled the scene.
As Xiaota was being pulled away, she kept looking back.
"Zhaozhao, why are we leaving?"
"Because of love." Shrimp Brother said with a weathered look, "Kids wouldn't understand."
Feng Yi sighed, "Even the moon has its phases, how can love be perfectly balanced? If this person gets a little more, that person will always get a little less..."
The little bird's actions today have completely shattered the barrier between them.
Brother Shrimp understood his unspoken meaning, took out his notebook and wrote as he muttered, "But this window paper should have been torn down long ago. The five of them pretend to be magnanimous in front of Huali all day long, but behind her back they are practically glaring at each other."
“That’s right, you can’t build something new without destroying it.” Feng Yi nodded. “It’s easy to pretend you don’t know, but you can’t pretend forever. When it comes to feelings…” A pang of pain flashed in his eyes, “the more you hide them, the easier it is for inner demons to grow.”
Zhao Heng, holding Xiao Ta and Xiao Shu's hands, blinked and asked, "Did you enjoy the play when A Yi went to see it last time?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Yi's bitterness vanished instantly.
He instinctively turned to the side, narrowly avoiding Brother Shrimp's electric cannon attack, and said with a wry smile, "Zhao Zhao, next time we can talk about something else."
"Say no other than you!" Brother Shrimp was exasperated.
"Didn't I tell you to go see the lanterns after the play? Or invite her to your house for a visit. Is the house you bought down the mountain at a huge expense just for show?"
“There was no Lantern Festival that day, and... he hadn’t even established a relationship yet, and he invited a woman to his home at night.” Feng Yi shook his head. “It was disrespectful to A Yu, and not the behavior of a gentleman.”
"You're a gentleman, you're a bachelor now."
"What about the next day? We need to set a time for the next appointment, right?"
"Ayu Sect had a mission and just left this morning."
Shrimp Bro's eyes widened. "Then why didn't you come along?"
Feng Yi glanced in the direction where Hua Li was.
He had originally planned to go with them this morning, and had even set off. However, upon seeing Tang Wanwan's message halfway there, he immediately turned back.
Even though he knew the girl was already a peak Tribulation Transcending expert, he still couldn't help but worry and had to take a look at her.

Huali stood in the courtyard and began to organize her thoughts.
Her gaze swept over Lian Zhuo, Wen Jin, Luo Chuan, and Yan Xi, finally settling on Shen Yu.
"I......"
“My little benefactor, there’s no need for you to say anything.” Yan Xi interrupted her directly, his deep blue eyes sweeping over the other four people, his words carrying a hidden barb: “Since you chose to stay, you should have understood…”
"If you can't stand it, get out now."
"Get lost?" Luo Chuan raised his eyes, his smile like a sword. "If you want to get lost, then get lost somewhere far away. Don't delay my time with Little Flower under the moonlit pear blossoms."
He turned to look at Huali, "Little Huali, ignore them. Come on, I'll take you back to the Holy Capital Demon Realm to play~"
"Whoever dares to possess her alone will die." Wen Jin shot at Luo Chuan, his aura turning ten degrees colder.
"Amitabha. This is not the place to quarrel. If you want to fight, please leave."
The atmosphere was visibly heated, and even the Buddha's eyes were filled with icy coldness. However, Shen Yu, who was always sharp-tongued, did not speak. He just stared silently at the ground, his knuckles clenched until they turned white.
Huali looked at this and then at that, and finally sighed.
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me."
She met all eyes, her gaze slightly tense: "I know... I was too greedy. I know perfectly well that if you truly love someone, you want them to be by your side all the time, but I... divided my heart into five parts."
"That's not fair to you."
The group remained silent. Just as Luo Chuan was about to speak, he saw Hua Li gently shake her head.
The young girl, who had been so adept at dealing with the various factions, abandoned her cunning and revealed only sincerity.
She scratched her head shyly, "But...I really, really like you guys, the kind of liking where I want to be with you forever and do so many, many things together."
"I want to go with Lian Zhuo to feel the wind on the snow-capped mountains and watch the prayer flags flutter."
"I also want to go to the Holy Capital Demon Realm with you, Luo Chuan, to see those strange and wonderful little demons."
"I want to go to Sunset City with Wen Jin to observe the slow growth of the roses, and to collect seashells and pearls with the birds in the East Sea..."
"And young master! We're going to ride horses together on the Canglan Grassland! Besides, I haven't even met your family yet..."
Shen Yu's eyes were a little red, and he tilted his head slightly, revealing a clean and sharp jawline.
He seems to have lost weight again.
Karin felt a little sad, but she insisted on expressing her thoughts completely: "The reason I said all this is to tell you that my heart is not divided into five parts, but will rise and grow bigger like dough."
“Each of you has received my complete love.”
"I will also do my best to make each and every one of you feel my love."
"Maybe I didn't do well enough in the beginning, but I can learn. And it won't be long. I will love you a little more today than yesterday, and a little more tomorrow than today... forever and ever."
“Amitabha.” The ice and snow in Lian Zhuo’s eyes melted. “Mount Sumeru can contain a mustard seed, and a mustard seed can contain Mount Sumeru. Love is boundless, so why confine yourself?”
Wen Jin didn't speak, but he didn't leave either.
"Since Little Flower Pear has said so, how can I object?" Luo Chuan sighed in surrender, the Eighth Tails wrapping around Flower Pear's wrist. "But... isn't it time for her to spend time with me?"
“My little benefactor, I’m still very weak…” Yan Xi pulled down his collar, revealing red scratches on his chest and back.
Huali couldn't bear to look: "..." Last night, when he took the initiative, he didn't seem weak at all. If she hadn't pretended to be dead, she wouldn't be back now.
Luo Chuan narrowed his heterochromatic eyes: "Looking for death?"
Yan Xi simply stopped pretending and said, "I'll play along."
Seeing that the animal world was about to start again, Huali immediately became adept at acting as a peacemaker.
At the same time, Shen Yu, who had been silent all along, suddenly moved.
The young general had specially rushed back from Canglan Prefecture, and half of his wrist guard was still on his pale wrist.
After Huali finished speaking, he silently took half a step back, turned around and left.
Huali caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye and immediately turned around.
But they only had time to see the restrained curve of Shen Yu's back.
Ao Bai: "It's over, the young master is really angry this time, and I can't coax him."
