It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong regarding the philosophical questions surrounding Shen Qin's fate, but what is certain is that even if the happiness is false, it is still happiness from the heart.
"Brother, are you carrying things onto the boat? Xiaoqin can handle this, you don't need to go through all that trouble!"
"Brother, can you stay with Xiaoqin a little longer?"
"Brother, do you want Xiaoqin to help you wash your hair? You just came back from training, and you're covered in sweat..."
Such comments were everywhere, and she herself was like a leech, following Xu Shi around almost all the time except for things like sleeping and bathing.
If there's a reason, follow along; if there isn't, create one and follow along.
As an aside, it wasn't that she was unwilling or shy about having Xu Shi accompany her to sleep or take a bath; rather, it was because there were several pairs of eyes staring at her menacingly, ready to fight at the slightest provocation, which prevented her from succeeding...
Xu Shi was both amused and exasperated by this.
It's fair to say that all of this is a bit exaggerated, but to be honest, it's within his expectations—Miss Shen Qin, no, my adopted sister, is a hopeless case of brother complex.
Before, she controlled Shenhe; now she controls herself—there's no real difference.
If one had to find a difference, it might be that she controls herself more deeply—the reason is simple: she and Shen He are siblings, but she and Shen He are not.
As we all know, once you do something, or rather, once you do it, you can actually unleash your full potential... To be honest, if an outsider who doesn't know the backstory saw this, and you told them that these two were once mortal enemies, they wouldn't believe it.
So, you see.
If someone's heart doesn't belong to you, the only reason is that you're using the wrong methods. (Just kidding.)
"Hey, you stinky dad, that's enough already!"
Even Xia Ke'an, a person who was only half-hearted about having fun, was a little annoyed under these circumstances and made a sarcastic remark.
"This is nothing."
Xu Shi, with a thick skin, simply smiled and pointed to Miss Chen Qin, who was giving him a shoulder massage with great enthusiasm, "Isn't it great... Come on, call her Auntie."
"you!"
Upon hearing this, the older woman felt an urge to bite him to death. Shouldn't you be calling me "Auntie"?!
You bad dad, you're doing this on purpose! Who are you trying to annoy?
However, there was nothing she could say. It was her own fault for pretending to be Xu Shi's daughter with him... She didn't deny that, but even so, there was no way she would change her mind.
Looking at it this way, these two are quite similar in some ways. If it's Xu Shi, then it's fine no matter what, but others should step aside as soon as possible.
"Exactly, my brother works so hard, what's wrong with me giving him a massage?"
Shen Qin echoed her agreement, while giving her cheap niece a slightly annoyed glare.
Whether the white-haired loli calls her "aunt" or not is irrelevant, but she's unhappy that the loli won't let her serve her brother. "It's my business if I want to."
"...Where did he find it hard?!"
Xia Ke'an sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. This guy was clearly the most idle one around!
They're even more free now!
To be honest, these past few days, apart from sitting there reading like he was on vacation, he's basically been a hands-off manager—at most, he's also been acting as Pan Feng's sparring partner. Some of the things he used to do have now been handed over to his silly apprentice, Pan Ling, under the guise of training her.
The story of being Pan Feng's sparring partner is actually quite interesting.
The idea came from Xia Wuyou—in her view, her little apprentice's foundation was now completely solid, and his abilities had stabilized at around B+, and he was in a bottleneck period where he couldn't go any higher or lower.
For a combat-oriented person like Xiaofeng, the best way to overcome this bottleneck is to engage in a lot of actual combat to accumulate more practical experience. This will allow her to better control her abilities, and with more comprehensive understanding, she will naturally be able to break through... Xia Wuyou has a lot to say about this, as that's how she got through it herself back then.
Or it could be medication. Xie Qingyan was happy to do her a favor and had even offered her a suggestion before, but she had refused outright.
It's clear that these combatants still prefer relatively traditional training methods.
A down-to-earth approach seems to be better than this kind of shortcut? Although she herself used the term "sublimation," it was a major bottleneck like breaking through from A+ to S, or even half a step from S to S+.
But you can't play like this at a low level. Wouldn't it be like using potions now to pay off debts in advance? What will you do later if you use them now?
It's not good in the long run... If her obedient apprentice was in the same situation as her, then she wouldn't object.
However, if Xia Xiaomao were to spar with Pan Feng on her own, the intensity would seem a bit too high? Not to mention she also has things to do... In comparison, her husband is a much better choice.
With the further deepening of the feedback from the "increase in entropy of evil thoughts", Xu Daguanren's combat power can not be said to have skyrocketed, but it can at least be said to have made great strides. He is at least at the A level, which is just right to be Pan Feng's sparring partner.
You should also fulfill your responsibilities as a master's father! (pointing)
Moreover, this is also a way for him to improve; combat skills can't always be just theoretical... It's clear that she's very thoughtful, and making this arrangement is for the good of her husband.
He doesn't necessarily have to be the first to bravely fight the enemy, but at least you can train him so that you won't be caught off guard when you encounter similar difficulties in the future.
