"Brother-in-law, my mother used to scold you a lot. Do you hate her?"
Zuan was taken aback, not understanding why she would say this. He knew that Xiao Zhao was always carefree and would never be so considerate as to try to ease the tension between him and his mother.
However, he quickly realized that Xiao Zhao had mentioned that Qin Wanru coveted the communication jade slip in her possession and had tried to borrow it to play with several times, but Qin Wanru had refused.
Could this be...?
The thought of Qin Wanru typing "brother-in-law" through the jade slip sent a chill down Zu An's spine, and he dared not think any further.
She must have thought she wouldn't know, which is why she let herself go like that.
Unfortunately, in my past life I was exposed to all sorts of chat software, where burly men pretended to be girls online, and my girlfriend would create a fake account pretending to admire her junior from elementary school...
He has a natural sensitivity to this.
Thinking of this, he decisively pretended not to know and continued to chat with the other person as if she were his sister-in-law, of course paying much more attention to his words.
Sigh, it's just a bankrupt version of QQ, I don't know why they're having so much fun with it.
Next up are Sang Qian and Zheng Dan:
"Sisi seems to be able to say 'mama' today. Although Dandan said it was just a meaningless sound from her, I'm still very happy."
“Brother Zu, I went to the temple today to get you a peace charm. Dandan said she went with me, but she actually secretly got one for you too, but she's too embarrassed to admit it.”
"Brother Zu, I miss you so much."
“These days, something seems amiss beneath the calm surface of the capital. The Prince of Wu has come to the capital, and the Princess of Wu is also socializing with the women of various powerful families. My father and I have discussed this, and we feel that the Prince of Wu has quite a bit of ambition. I don’t know where he gets the guts, given the precedents of the Prince of Dai and the Prince of Jin.”
"We've discovered that his trip to the capital this time seems to have been orchestrated by the Bi family. I wonder what the Empress is thinking. Is it to oppose the Empress Dowager?"
...
Upon seeing this message, Zu'an frowned slightly. Bi Linglong had summoned the King of Wu to the capital?
She wouldn't do something like that, would she? It wouldn't make any sense.
To confront the Empress Dowager?
But we are clearly so close, there's no reason for her to do something like this.
Did she guess my relationship with the Empress Dowager?
She is indeed an extremely intelligent woman; perhaps she really did deduce the truth from some clues.
Thinking about this, Zu An felt a headache coming on, wondering how he would face the two women.
“Grandpa, Qianqian has been teaching Sisi to call me Daddy every day, but Sisi just can’t learn it. She’s been calling me Daddy for so many days for nothing. It’s hilarious.”
"I didn't realize you'd been gone so long. I dreamt about you last night, and I even got up in the middle of the night to change my underwear. Qianqian asked me what happened, but I was too embarrassed to tell her. It was so embarrassing."
"How are things going with the demons? I inquired around, and the sealed land seems to be extremely dangerous, but with your abilities, you should be fine, right?"
"Why haven't you replied to my messages? Did something really happen to you in the sealed land? If something happens to you, I'll find a man and remarry tomorrow!"
"Hey, hey, I was just kidding, don't be angry. Qianqian has been worried about you these days, but I've always believed you'd be safe. After all, I watched you back when you were so weak, yet you still managed to trick a bunch of big shots, and even I got caught by you. Hmph, how could something like you, such a bad guy, get into trouble?"
"Ah, I really miss the days in Brightmoon City. Back then, you weren't as powerful as you are now, but you could often be with me... Those days were the happiest time of my life."
...
Upon seeing Zheng Dan's words, Zu An recalled the shy yet bold woman who had once said, "Brother, you can do it even in a place where the sun can't shine through." Countless tender feelings welled up in his heart, and he began to reply to her messages one by one, expressing his longing for her.
Compared to Zheng Dan's fiery and bold messages, Xie Daoyun's messages were much more reserved and normal, mainly inquiring about his well-being or asking about some issues related to runes and formations. Her words conveyed a gentle and graceful feeling.
Thinking back to their last meeting, when they barely had a chance to exchange a few words, Zu An sighed inwardly. He then solemnly answered the other party's questions on the jade slip and gave many specific suggestions on his cultivation path.
There was a time when he wished all the beautiful women in the world were his, but now he understands that love is a heavy thing, and it's not something that can be easily spoken.
Thus, while traveling, he used communication jade slips to convey his longing to his various confidantes. After traveling day and night for some time, he finally arrived at the shore of the East Sea.
