Upon hearing this, Zu An's hair stood on end. He had been so careless! He had just been praising Bai Fei's fragrance, and now he was getting his comeuppance so quickly.
However, having seen many storms, he reacted quickly and immediately sighed, "This must be the scent of that expert from the Southern Frontier, Jia Sili. Her spirit summoning technique is really hard to guard against. I almost died in her illusion."
"Spirit Summoner?" Chu Chuyan's attention was indeed drawn. "It is said that Spirit Summoners are unique experts among the people of the Southern Frontier. Their spirit summoning techniques are unpredictable and can take lives silently."
“That’s right. Back then, our Great Zhou suffered heavy casualties in the war with the Southern Frontier. The Southern Frontier’s Spirit Descent Masters caused us a lot of trouble,” Murong Qinghe, who had been in the military for many years, naturally knew about these things. “The name Jia Sili sounds familiar. Back then, she seemed to have given the court’s experts a hard time. Brother Zu, you actually managed to escape with your life from her.”
Murong Qinghe's eyes sparkled. She had always admired the strong, and whether it was her own battles with Zu An or Zu An's various achievements during this period, she admired them from the bottom of her heart.
She secretly thought, "If only Brother Chu were that amazing."
Hmm, how could I think like that? Brother Chu should just be a quiet, handsome man. I'll take care of all the vulgar things like fighting and killing.
Chu Chuyan hurriedly asked him about the battle between him and Jia Sili, and Zu An gave a general account of the battle. He was worried that the other party would suffer a great loss if he encountered a Spirit Summoner in the future, so he emphasized the attack methods of Spirit Summoners.
Of course, in the story about Yun Yuqing in the illusion, he changed the female lead to Chu Chuyan.
Sigh, Aquaman needs to work on his self-discipline.
As expected, upon hearing that in the illusion he had fought against the entire world for her sake, even going to war with the emperor, Chu Chuyan was immediately moved to tears.
Chu Youzhao's face flushed with excitement. She thought to herself that her brother-in-law was amazing, the best and most powerful person in the world.
Even Murong Qinghe, standing to the side, had a strange look in his eyes, glancing at Zu An from time to time, and then at Chu Youzhao from time to time, his face occasionally showing a conflicted expression.
Zuan secretly wiped away a bead of sweat. He was worried that these people, who had been raised with the idea of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, would think that his behavior in the secret realm was treasonous.
I never imagined that this kind of love story would be so powerful for women. No wonder Yun Yuqing was so tender and affectionate when she heard about it...
Ugh, what a scumbag! Thinking about other women at a time like this!
At this moment, Zu'an suddenly noticed the packages and luggage next to him and was taken aback: "Why are you carrying all this stuff? Are you going on a picnic somewhere?"
Chu Chuyan's face darkened: "It's not a picnic, it's that I'm going back to Mingyue City."
"What?" Zuan immediately lost his composure.
Chu Chuyan said, "I just received a message from my mother not long ago. Something big has happened in the Chu family, and I need to go back to deal with it."
Chu Youzhao, who was standing to the side, said, "Even though time was so tight, my sister still wanted to say goodbye to you before she left. But when she heard the news that you had an accident, she couldn't stay calm anymore. She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. I've never seen her so anxious before, not since we were little."
Chu Chuyan blushed slightly and spat, "It's not as exaggerated as you say."
Zuan laughed and put his arm around her slender waist: "It's only right for a wife to care for her husband, come and give me a kiss."
Chu Chuyan blushed and dodged, saying, "There are other people around."
"Go away, don't disturb our time together." Zu An waved his hand impatiently, shooing away the two third wheels next to him.
"Shameless!" Chu Youzhao and Murong Qinghe ran out laughing.
Although they said that, they secretly envied the relationship between the couple.
In a place like the capital, they were used to seeing couples who treated each other with utmost respect and propriety for their entire lives. There was nothing wrong with that; that's how everyone was raised. But as women, they always felt that it lacked the flavor of love and passion.
On the contrary, Zuan's unconventional style of doing things made the two feel very fresh, and they felt his love for life and the wonderfulness of life.
After the two went outside, they looked at each other in dismay. Murong Qinghe couldn't help but ask, "Do you think your brother-in-law and your sister are in there again...?"
As she spoke, a faint blush crept onto her wheat-colored skin. Clearly, the scene she had inadvertently witnessed that night had left an indelible impact on her young mind, and she often dreamed about it at night these days.
However, the female protagonist in her dreams is sometimes Chu Chuyan, and sometimes she becomes herself; the male protagonist is sometimes Chu Youzhao, and sometimes Zu An...
Every time she thought about this, she felt incredibly embarrassed. She wondered how she could dream about another man. Hmm, she absolutely couldn't let Brother Chu know.
Chu Youzhao also had a strange expression: "It shouldn't be that bad..."
Her tone wasn't entirely certain; she knew her lecherous brother-in-law's true nature.
"Want to take a look?" Murong Qinghe had always been bold, and couldn't help but be eager to try.
Chu Youzhao was startled: "Don't do anything reckless, no way!"
She wasn't worried about her sister; after all, it wouldn't matter if Murong Qinghe, who was also a woman, saw it. What she felt was that it was too unfair for her brother-in-law to be seen.
While the two were whispering and arguing outside, the two inside did not, as they had guessed, embrace each other tenderly.
"Chu Yan, what is it that requires you to go back this time?" Zu An's tone was full of reluctance. With Chu Chu Yan gone, he truly felt like a stranger in the capital.
