After saying that, Tang Chen stuffed the little kid back into Hua Wuxin's arms. Ever since she had the baby, she realized the importance of exercise and the greatness of being a mother. Even though the child was still small, carrying him around every day was really a test of her physical strength.
Hua Wuxin was having a great time playing with the little kid when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. "Hiss!"
"What's wrong with you..." Tang Chen was just about to go check on Hua Wuxin, but before she could stand up, the sudden tearing pain in her chest made her squat on the ground: "Hiss, gosh, why don't I feel well too!"
Hua Wuxin's face was pale. He held the little kid in one hand and pulled Tang Chen up from the ground with the other hand: "Do you know how I pulled you back from the brink of death?"
After Tang Chen sat down and took a moment to calm down, he said, "Black Pearl, of course I know. You are my savior."
Hua Wuxin smiled and then asked, "Then Black Pearl, do you know why you can revive the dead?"
"...I don't know." For some reason, every time someone spoke to Tang Chen like this, Tang Chen would subconsciously resist knowing the answer.
Hua Wuxin explained, "Both the Black Pearl and the Bloodthirsty Gu originated from Hong Yu's family. However, the Black Pearl was cultivated using a forbidden book, and the techniques and materials are no longer available today. Going back hundreds of years, the Ouyang family of Liang and the Huangfu family of Nanyue were originally from the same clan. However, due to many setbacks, they eventually split into two factions, resulting in the current situation. The Huangfu family possesses the Bloodthirsty Gu, and the Ouyang family possesses the Black Pearl."
Tang Chen was stunned for a moment. She seemed to have sensed something was wrong: "Why, I have a bad feeling."
Hua Wuxin said: "Do you still want to listen? If you don't want to listen, I won't force you to know."
"Um, let me slow down a bit." Tang Chen straightened his chest and head, sat up straight, closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, then said, "Okay, I'm ready!"
"Life and death Gu, live and die together, live as long as heaven and earth", these few simple words clearly express the role of the black pearl in saving people.
To put it simply, Tang Chen and Hua Wuxin are now two little grasshoppers tied to the same rope. They prosper together and suffer together!
Hua Wuxin saw Tang Chen staring at her with wide eyes and a look of shock, and added again: "So, let Wang Yanzhou treat me better. Being nice to me is being nice to you. Do you still think it's a rip-off to spend money on my black market?"
Tang Chen laughed like a fool twice and said, "I'm going to trick you. If you don't say anything, you won't even get a penny. What you're saying now is, if you die, I will die too?"
Hua Wuxin smiled and said, "Not only that, one person's fate is now shared by two people. Do you think God is so generous?"
These words dealt a heavy blow to Tang Chen's already fragile heart: "You and Wang Ruo are about the same age. Although she looks young, she is already in her forties. And looking at your sickly appearance, don't I only have a few years left to live?"
Although she wasn't very polite in some places, her meaning was good: "You can say that."
Tang Chen looked at the flickering lights in front of him and thought for a moment before he let out a long sigh and calmly sat back down. "...It's okay, it's still a win. I don't have to worry about my child's education in the future, nor do I have to worry about him starting a family. Yeah, it's a win."
Hua Wuxin reminded him, "Wang Ruo and Wang Yanzhou don't know about this. Only the two of us know about it. Keep your mouths shut."
"No problem," Tang Chen said, not forgetting to remind the child who was dozing off in another man's arms: "Little one, you didn't hear what we said just now, understand meow?"
Hua Wuxin saw that the little kid was already half asleep, so she handed him back to Tang Chen. "It's getting late, he wants to go to bed. I think you should stop glaring at Liang Shuyi for revenge. It's pitch black outside and I'm worried about you going back. Just take the child and have a nap here."
"What you said is nice, but I always feel something is weird." After all, this hot spring villa is actually her, Tang Chen's territory, right? Is this called usurping the throne?
After hearing her question, Hua Wuxin cleared his throat and said, "Don't worry, I won't charge you this time."
"hehe."
After a quick wash, Tang Chen coaxed the child to sleep while yawning and half lying on the bed, his mind groggy. "Why do I always feel like I forgot something? What is it..."
Tang Chen slept peacefully until midnight, and suddenly woke up. He finally remembered something he had accidentally forgotten in his dream: Oh my god, didn’t Wang Yanzhou say he would come back tonight!
Looking out the window at the night lit only by the candlelight, and then looking at the child sleeping soundly beside him, Tang Chen gently lay back down: "Forget it, it's too late, whatever, go to sleep."
...When Tang Chen fled to the hot spring villa for refuge, Wang Yanzhou finished his work and happily returned home when he heard a fight and noise from a distance. However, amidst the noise, there was no sound of Tang Chen.
Wang Yanzhou grabbed the peach blossom in his hand and rushed over at the speed of the wind. From the outside, the people inside looked like they were crazy. For a moment, Wang Yanzhou was a little afraid to go in. Seeing the Qilin Guard who was responsible for guarding Tang Chen standing at the door, he asked him first: "What's going on in there? Where is Tang Chen?"
The Qilin Guard explained everything in detail: "Your Majesty, the Madam has sought refuge at the Hot Spring Villa. The Second Madam and Princess Fenglai are currently inside. They've been fighting since dinner until now."
Wang Yanzhou frowned. Listening to the noise inside, could it be that Liang Shuyi's identity was exposed? "Did Fenglai know about Shuyi's affairs?"
Qilin Wei said that he was just a newcomer and that he hadn't heard the stories the women talked about day after day, nor had the energy to think about them. "I don't quite understand what happened. I only know that after the Madam seemed to have pointed out the Second Madam's other identity, the two of them started fighting."
"Hey, open the door."
As the Qilin Guard opened the door, a teapot flew out of the room and headed straight for Wang Yanzhou's head. The Qilin Guard was quick-witted and caught the teapot, then subconsciously threw it back and threw it off the cliff.
Looking at the originally cozy little house she and Tang Chen had in, it had now become so messy. Not only were there cups, plates, and bowls all over the floor, but the gauze curtains were also torn to shreds.
Wang Yanzhou simply picked up the stool next to him and smashed it down with all his strength. With a clang, the two crazy women who had been "fighting" non-stop suddenly stopped and looked towards the door together: "Have you had enough of this?"
