Chapter 145, First Release of Banxia Novel
The next morning.
Xie Chen woke up earlier than Bai Li. The boy in his arms hadn't turned back into a cat yet and was fast asleep.
"Lili, good morning."
Xie Chen didn't wake him, but just murmured and kissed his cheek.
As Xie Chen came out of the room, he saw Bai Si, who had also just gotten up.
"Thank you, Chen."
Bai Si rubbed his eyes, looking a little tired: "Why don't you make breakfast for Lili? I'll go brew his medicine."
"OK."
The two people had a clear division of labor, and each went about their own business.
Around 10 o'clock, Xie Chen suggested that he needed to leave for a while.
The kitten, who had just finished drinking its medicine, hurriedly grabbed him upon hearing this.
"Sir, sir, please take me with you!"
"Sweetie, I won't be out for too long. You and your brothers stay home and wait for me, okay?"
"not good?."
Bai Li held onto him tightly, refusing to let go. After their last separation, the cat was now incredibly clingy.
Is Xie Chen likely to take him out? Not to mention that the kitten needs to take medicine three times a day, Bai Si isn't even sure he can maintain this condition indefinitely, given his current state.
"Lili, stop bothering him."
Bai Si detained him: "Xie Chen can't just stay here doing nothing. If you behave, we'll keep you company at home."
How many? Her older brother was coaxing her from the side, and in the end, Bai Li could only dejectedly agree to let Xie Chen leave.
Xie Chen went to the company.
When Anna saw him, she almost burst into tears of joy: "Boss, you're finally back."
Xie Chen hasn't been back to the company for quite some time. He has to make many decisions, and some contracts require his personal signature.
Anna couldn't find Xie Chen anywhere.
She had been nearly driven mad with worry these past few days, but thankfully, before she went crazy, she saw Xie Chen.
Xie Chen dealt with some of the more important, accumulated items.
Then, he calmly instructed Anna, "I won't be at the company very often lately. If there's anything urgent, then contact me."
Anna nodded, and seeing him about to leave, she couldn't help but ask, "Sir, how is Lili?"
Upon hearing Bai Li's name, Xie Chen's expression visibly softened.
"He'll be alright?"
Xie Chen replied in a different phrasing.
After leaving the company, Xie Chen went to the hospital.
Bai Rong's injuries are healing very well. Perhaps because she is worried about her younger brother, she is cooperating with the doctor and listening to the doctor's instructions. She just hopes to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible.
"Second Sister."
Xie Chen called out to Bai Rong, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Bai Rong sat up straight, leaning against the cushions, and without beating around the bush, asked directly, "How's it going with Qiao? Have you taken down his hideout?"
"I've joined forces with Gong Zhe, and it won't be long before they all disappear."
"good?."
Bai Rong was satisfied with the result. She glanced at her wound and added, "I will be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. Qiao is cunning. If he wants to talk, I will take you to find him."
Xie Chen shook his head upon hearing this.
"No, you don't need that. Just focus on recovering in the hospital."
As he spoke, as if remembering something, he told him about the signs that Lili had been getting better in the past two days.
"After I've sorted things out, I plan to take Lili back to Monster Mountain."
Bai Rong raised an eyebrow, somewhat understanding the meaning behind his visit today.
So, you wanted to make some advance arrangements for these brothers and sisters?
After spending some time in the ward, Bai Rong's attitude towards him was somewhat better than before.
She could tell that Xie Chen truly loved their Lili.
However, he was still unsure how long this love could last.
Company, hospital.
There were no problems at the places Xie Chen went to.
After being away for two days, Bai Li knew he was going back to the company and to see her second sister, so she gradually lowered her guard.
The third day.
Xie Chen didn't go to the company, nor did he go to the hospital.
He went to a remote place, with a wolf cub by his side.
"Ouch."
The flavor is still there.
Lang He would occasionally report to Xie Chen, who would then lead him on his way without changing his expression.
Is he fishing for that old Wu?
Old Wu hasn't given up hope since his last disappearance.
Xie Chen knew that he had been watching over him and Lili the whole time. Lili had several older brothers watching over her every step of the way, and even if the old crow grew wings, it couldn't touch him.
Unable to move a muscle, he began to test whether Old Wu wanted to harm him.
really.
After he put the wolf cub, which looked like a silly dog, on his leash, the wolf cub responded to him thanks to its keen sense of smell.
"It's right near us."
"Okay, I understand."
Xie Chen's route became increasingly remote; he deliberately chose places with few people.
If the other party wants to do something, it just so happens that the commotion won't be too big.
Xie Chen stopped in front of a peach grove that was practically deserted.
The weather hasn't fully warmed up yet, and the peach branches are bare, without even a single leaf.
"Brother Xie, is it possible that humans will come here?" Lang He looked up and asked Xie Chen.
Xie Chen said calmly, "No."
"How can you be so sure?" Little Wolf asked, a little confused. "The air here is nice, so people might come here for a walk."
Xie Chen emphasized again, "No, it won't happen," and explained why.
“This peach orchard belongs to me. No outsiders are allowed to enter from 200 meters away from the orchard.”
Lang He: "..."
Envy? Tears suddenly streamed down my face.
"Lang River".
Xie Chen looked down at the little wolf: "You should go back first. Be careful on your way back, or something might happen."
Lang He hesitated, glancing at Xie Chen: "If I leave, will you stay here alone?"
"Um."
The loyal little wolf shook his head upon hearing this: "I won't leave. I'll stay with you."
He's a wolf, after all; he can always bite back when it matters.
Xie Chenmo? Agreed.
"go back."
His tone left no room for refusal.
The little wolf howled a few times, but finally, at Xie Chen's command, it turned and ran away.
Only Xie Chen remained at Taolinkou.
He turned around, his gaze deep and intense: "Still not? Want to come out?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept past him.
Old Wu's voice had an eerie tone; he didn't appear, he just spoke.
"It's been a long time, Lord Ruchen."
Ru Chen, a name that is both unfamiliar and familiar.
Xie Chen raised his eyes and glanced in the direction from which the voice came: "Who are you?"
"Or perhaps he was a nobody, a nobody who followed you back then."
Old Wu laughed and said, "After you fell into demonic ways, I, who have always been loyal to you, also fell into demonic ways without hesitation. But you ended up being half-god and half-demon, doing too many absurd things for a mere little spirit, and in the end, you didn't hesitate to use reincarnation to exchange for his rebirth. God, you've made me seem quite superfluous."
After hearing his background, Xie Chen scoffed, "So it turns out you're the nosy one who wanted to interfere in my private life."
Having worked in the entertainment industry, he accurately identified Lao Wu's niche.
"Do you know? You know, what you're doing is considered being a bastard. Bastards are hated by everyone."
Old Wu didn't seem to care and said, "After I fell into demonic possession with you, I was already hated by everyone."
"God, I loathe this world. If you destroy it, perhaps a new world will be born."
Xie Chen sneered: "Wishful thinking? You're dreaming."
If we let him destroy this world, wouldn't that mean he'd wipe out his own people?
You're dreaming.
The two men faced off against each other. The black mist swirling around Old Wu acted as a catalyst, causing Xie Chen's expression to gradually change.
Almost every change in Xie Chen was triggered by certain conditions.
For example, the demons he encountered last time.
For example, he couldn't find his own kitten.
And now, the murderous intent that surges within him towards Lao Wu.
All of this made him no longer an ordinary human being, Xie Chen.
If his human identity can't protect Lili, then he'll reclaim his former identity.
Old Wu knew he was no match for him, so from the very beginning he was on guard and didn't even show his face.
"Can't you catch me?"
Old Wu laughed loudly: "I've been possessed by demons for too long, will I ever perish? That day will come."
The black mist surrounding him never dissipates; he is immortal.
Xie Chen ignored his arrogant words and simply pointed in a certain direction.
Old Wu's throat was twisted by an invisible force, and purplish-black blood slid down from the corner of his mouth.
However, he was resurrected after his death.
Xie Chen made him personally experience the pain of death, and even if he came back to life, the pain would still remain.
No? I don't know how much time has passed.
Xie Chen dragged him deep into the peach grove and buried him under a peach tree.
The peach tree, fed with a little blood, will spontaneously trap any buried monsters.
But the monster still didn't die.
"Ru Chen, you've ruined... ruined this world."
He wanted to embrace new life alongside this world. He didn't want to continue living in this body.
Xie Chenmei ignored him.
The world will not be destroyed.
This monster, which is so detrimental to Lili, he will surely destroy it.
Back at the villa.
Xie Chen had just brought Bai Li back to his villa, along with Bai Si and Bai Jing who had been transferred there as well.
As for the other brothers from the Bai family, Bai Li's condition has improved slightly these past two days, and Bai Lin has already told them to go about their business as usual.
Tan Yi's schedule is currently very tight; all the work he turned down recently needs to be resumed one by one.
Exhausted, Tan Yi barely made it back until dark.
He came here specifically to see Bai Li.
“Lili”.
Tan Yi buried her head in the kitten's soft, chubby belly.
"I don't want to work."
A snow-white little kitten reached out its paw to pat its third brother's head.
"Third brother, you can quit your job, I'll support you."
To make her story more credible, the kitten ran back to her room and showed her third brother the money she had saved.
Xie Chen had been saving all his money for him, and had even exchanged it for cash and put it in a box.
Cats love counting money, and Xie Chen did this on purpose to make the cats happy while counting.
That amount of money looks like a lot, but for Tan Yi, it's nothing.
He may not be as wealthy as Xie Chen, but he earns a lot from acting, endorsements, variety shows, and other gigs.
"Thank you, Lili."
She was so touched by the kitten that she wanted to hide it away and not give it to anyone else.
The two brothers cuddled for a long time until Gong Zhe came over and took Tan Yi away. Only then did Xie Chen pick up the kitten again.
"gentlemen!"
The kitten, tired from playing with its third brother, hugged the gentleman's handsome face and gave him several kisses.
Xie Chen let him kiss her, his eyes full of indulgence.
"Lili, your fourth brother and I have discussed it and decided that we'll go home in two days."
The kitten, which hadn't been back for half a year since it came down from the mountain, widened its eyes instantly: "!"
"Sir, let's go home!"
"Yes, I want to go home."
Xie Chen caught the little kitten who jumped out of his arms, overjoyed, and patiently coaxed him: "Be good, don't run around. Your fourth brother said you can't do strenuous exercise."
