Chapter 29 Chapter 29 You’re welcome. It doesn’t matter if I die for you…
Ever since Qin Sheng gave the Lingxi Ring to Xu Zhaoyi, the intonation of words would pop up in his mind from time to time. It was Xu Zhaoyi practicing this way of communication.
Most of the time, these sounds that sounded like baby talk were meaningless, but Qin Sheng would always reply with an "hmm" to show that he had received the other party's "signal".
During this period, Xu Zhaoyi was even able to do two things at once, and very casually broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining one evening. This means that Qin Sheng now has the plug-in for the fifth level of Qi Refining.
It took more than ten days before Xu Zhaoyi could speak complete sentences fluently.
His first words were: [The person who made these rings for you was a woman, right?]
Qin Sheng was stunned for a moment: […?] He didn't realize where this came from and cautiously didn't answer.
Xu Zhaoyi didn't care whether he answered the question or not, and continued: "Actually, I smelled the scent of women's perfume on you that day."
Considering the love-brained personality that Qin Sheng has shown towards the Qin family and is completely obsessed with Xu Zhaoyi, he shouldn't be having such close contact with a woman in secret, not to mention avoiding the Qin family's eyes and ears and arousing suspicion.
Although it is just a small matter, it is not a bad thing to be cautious.
[Of course... I don't mean anything else, I just thought I'd remind you that after we move back to the Qin family, if you don't want them to find out you have other helpers, you must be more careful when you meet privately.]
It’s best not to meet.
Xu Zhaoyi didn't say this. Although he really had no selfish motives, he felt more guilty than if he had any selfish motives. He was very worried that Qin Sheng would ask him if he was jealous. It was just... weird.
This is also the reason why he dragged it out for so long and was still unwilling to talk to Qin Sheng in person.
Fortunately, Qin Sheng's thoughts were on a different track than his, and he didn't think about it that way at all. After hearing what he said, he came to his senses, chuckled softly, and responded in a gentle voice: "I understand, I'll pay attention to it."
When he saw Feng Lili that night, she was already in a mess. Qin Sheng didn't notice this at all. He didn't know what kind of puppy nose Xu Zhaoyi had that he could smell it.
Xu Zhaoyi understood his reply as: they still had to meet later, but Qin Sheng should remind the other party not to spray perfume before the meeting.
Feeling a little uncomfortable for some reason, Xu Zhaoyi pursed his lips and unilaterally ended the conversation. He even took off his ring ceremoniously, as if he was hanging up the phone.
But after a few minutes, he put it back on consciously and reflected on his inexplicable behavior.
He shouldn't treat Qin Sheng's every arrangement so casually. He knew that Qin Sheng was a person who liked to prepare all the details to be foolproof, and he definitely didn't want to be the only 'surprise' in the other party's 'foolproof' plan.
If he did this one time and happened to miss Qin Sheng's request for help, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
After that, it became normal for them to communicate silently using the Lingxi Ring. Xu Zhaoyi seemed to like this way of communicating without opening his mouth, unlike Noodles who was a bit talkative.
However, Qin Sheng clearly felt that the Xu Zhaoyi who spoke in his mind talked more than the one he spoke face to face, and was even more relaxed and lively.
It was hard to imagine that Xu Zhaoyi would suddenly complain to him in his heart while eating that the fish he was eating was not as good as the taste of those small fish monsters in Luoxing Lake.
So Qin Sheng asked him if he wanted to eat some. There were more than a dozen of them in the swimming pool. After he finished eating, he could ask the Qin family to send more.
As a result, Xu Zhaoyi's face was indescribable after hearing this, and he said that he could not eat the little fish monster that had bitten Xu Wenbai.
[…dirty.] He commented, and then continued to struggle with the mediocre fish in his bowl, completely unaware that he had thrown a slightly playful repetition into Qin Sheng's mind.
Until Qin Sheng looked at him with a smile and surprise, his eyes touched him.
Xu Zhaoyi's chewing suddenly stopped.
He lowered his eyes and stared at the culprit fish in the bowl, waiting stiffly for Qin Sheng's teasing, which was not malicious but not really kind to him.
In fact, he felt that Qin Sheng was already gentlemanly enough, as if all his subconscious behavior habits were marinated with "courtesy and politeness", but occasionally a little harmless bad taste would emerge. After being together for so long, he was almost used to it.
However, after waiting anxiously, all he got was a calm, gentle, and ordinary reply: "Then I'll have them fish it out from Falling Star Lake and send it over."
Someone mercifully let him go, for the sake of his handsome face, which had turned red with shame.
[…Hmm.] Xu Zhaoyi’s heart settled back into his chest.
I just complained in my heart that the way this ring communicates might have the side effect of making people subconsciously open up their hearts.
The last time he spoke to someone in this tone was when he was very young and his parents were still with him... Thinking of this, he was suddenly stunned and glanced upstairs.
Well, his parents are with him now, so maybe it’s not entirely because of the ring.
Xu Zhaoyi lowered his eyes and continued eating. The fish in the bowl had already cooled down. It tasted ordinary but also had a slight fishy smell. He stuffed it all into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it whole. Fortunately, there were no bones in it.
The topic just passed by.
At this moment, no one thought that Qin Sheng went to great lengths to send people to Luoxing Lake to catch a fish monster and send it over just for Xu Zhaoyi's words, which was something that should not happen between them.
After dinner, Xu Zhaoyi went upstairs as usual to see his parents who were in a sleeping state. However, he did not return to his room to practice, but went to the swimming pool to feed the "fish" for some unknown reason.
These past few days he had not been in seclusion like before, because he found that his progress from refining Qi into the body to the fourth level of Qi refining was too smooth.
It's not that there is anything wrong. After all, he possesses the dual spiritual roots of gold and fire, an endless supply of spiritual energy, and a book called "Starfire Art" which is very suitable for his Qi Refining Period practice. After he started to practice formally, he was convinced that the practice secret book Qin Sheng gave him was very rare, and its rarity was probably on par with his dual spiritual roots that were mutated.
The problem is that his cultivation level is increasing too fast, but his body is not keeping up. If he is too ambitious and ignores it, and only pursues the improvement of his realm, what he gets is just castles in the air, and he will definitely not be able to cope with the dangers they are about to face.
Fortunately, the progress he made during the Qi Refining period did not involve any growth or leap in his state of mind, otherwise he would be even more distressed.
He had a hunch that if he continued to remain in seclusion, he probably wouldn't be able to truly improve his strength, but if he went out to gain experience, it would mean that his strength would be exposed to the Qin family, which was definitely not acceptable.
Xu Zhaoyi sighed. He didn't know how to tell Qin Sheng. Maybe he should find an excuse, such as pretending to have a quarrel with Qin Sheng and go out to relax, and go abroad alone.
He had already thought of his destination. Unconventional methods were prevalent in Nanyang, so there were definitely more opportunities for training than in China.
The Qin family is out of reach in this chaotic area. They only need to create a small accident to get rid of the surveillance behind them and quietly change their identities to stay there for a while.
The Qin family wouldn't care too much about his life or death, as long as Qin Sheng could cooperate and make plans during this period, they would break up with him.
As for how it will end, I will wait for him to come back and then "reconcile". It is normal for unstable young people to have ups and downs in love.
"Little Daddy, what are you thinking about?"
Noodles came with a basin of meat to feed the fish. Seeing Xu Zhaoyi squatting by the swimming pool in a daze, he walked over and squatted next to him.
Xu Zhaoyi came to his senses, turned around and stared at the strangely fat kid who had almost squatted into a ball for a while, then suddenly asked, "Can you and your father communicate with each other through telepathy?"
It took him several days of using the Lingxi Ring to figure this out. As both were "scientific products" in Qin Sheng's hands, it didn't make sense that a small pair of rings could do something that a ball as big as noodles couldn't.
Noodles rolled his eyes a bit guiltily before telling the truth: "Yes, it is possible."
"Then can the three of us create a group chat now?" Xu Zhaoyi unilaterally thought that this should not be difficult, just like a chat software.
But Noodles shook his head and said, "I really can't do that. The working principle of this pair of Lingxi rings is different from the connection between me and my father."
To give an example, one is on the magic side and the other is on the science side. They seem to have the same function, but in fact there is a thick dimensional wall between them.
If you want to start a group chat, you need to wait for Xu Zhaoyi's system to wake up and both parties have "set up antennas" before you can add friends.
"Oh..." Xu Zhaoyi didn't seem disappointed, but he looked a little dazed, because his attention was taken away by the name of the ring. He really hoped that he had misheard: "...What did you say the name of this pair of rings was?"
"Lingxi Ring, the spiritual resonance of the mind." Noodles spoke clearly and in standard pronunciation, explaining: "It's an ancient magical instrument, not a high-dimensional scientific invention like me."
Xu Zhaoyi had a subtle expression.
He thought that these were the 'walkie-talkies' that Qin Sheng had deliberately made into a pair of rings with unspeakable thoughts, but he didn't expect that they were actually a pair of rings that just happened to have this function, and they just happened to be needed by them, and they just happened to be in Qin Sheng's hands.
The latter seems to be more troublesome. After all, there should not be many magical instruments that can be called ancient.
Noodles's subsequent comments also confirmed this: "Unlike the sound transmission method, the principle of this ring is supposed to be to build a bridge of communication between the two Taoist partners through the bond line, so even those with higher cultivation levels cannot intercept your conversation."
"Love line?" Xu Zhaoyi was stunned again.
Is there really a connection between him and Qin Sheng? While this question was arising in his heart, Xu Zhaoyi almost numbly realized that he didn't seem to be very surprised by this.
Their engagement even possesses the blessing of heaven and earth that countless lovers in this world desire but cannot obtain.
Although he insisted that he was straight, he could not imagine that he might fall in love with a man who was a few centimeters taller than him in the future - he himself was about 1.85 meters tall, and Qin Sheng's height was infinitely close to 1.9 meters. Although he looked handsome and gentle, there was no trace of gender ambiguity in him that could make him want to protect and pity him.
However, he no longer had the energy to make a fuss about the various bizarre and messy things that had arisen from his relationship with Qin Sheng.
If there is a connection, then there is a connection. Anyway, even if he acts extremely resistant and uncomfortable, he can't do anything about these illusory things. It's better to look at it in a more positive way.
"What are you doing?"
A big one and a small one were squatting next to each other by the swimming pool. Qin Sheng passed by with a freshly printed document and asked with amusement.
"Are you drooling over those lively little fish monsters? I've had them delivered to you, so you'll have something to eat tonight."
Before Xu Zhaoyi could respond, Noodles raised his hand: "This time I want to eat rice in fish soup!"
"It can be made into a soup." Qin Sheng thought for a moment and said, "You can add some other herbs to neutralize it, so that your little dad won't get hot all over after eating it like last time."
"...It shouldn't happen this time." Xu Zhaoyi felt a pang in his heart as he realized that their conversation was becoming more and more like they had been married for over a decade, and even their child was several years old.
This is largely due to the AI idiot Noodles's behavior of claiming to be his father and deceiving his wife into marriage.
And his acquiescence.
At first, it was because he didn't care. Noodles were really cute when they were kneaded freely. They approached him in a familiar and familiar way. This was a very unfamiliar but also heart-warming feeling for him. He didn't want to put on a stern face and act serious in front of this guy.
Later, when he realized that their verbal relationship was heading in an indescribable direction, it would be too serious to ask them to change their words... In short, Xu Zhaoyi was sure that if he brought it up, it would only make the atmosphere more awkward.
He stood up and turned around, and Qin Sheng had already walked slowly to him and handed him the information in his hand.
"I originally had no expectations for the investigation into the fox fruit, as it was absolutely unsolvable at this stage. However, I had already promised someone else a favor, so I just casually gave them a request. I didn't expect the result I sent back would yield an unexpected reward."
Qin Sheng pointed to the area circled in red marker on the document and continued, "Zhou Jianwei didn't lie. The fox fruit he ate was indeed given to him by his client on purpose, as a guinea pig to test whether it was poisonous. There's nothing to worry about in that part, but the fox fruit in the female client's hand was bought from a Nanyang merchant. Or maybe I shouldn't say she was a Nanyang merchant. She simply grew up in Nanyang with her father..."
"Feng Lili." Xu Zhaoyi read out the name marked in red by Qin Sheng on the snow-white paper.
"Yes." Qin Sheng said seriously, "Husheng said that the box that killed your parents didn't use orthodox Taoist methods. It's well known that unorthodox methods are prevalent in Nanyang. And a few years later, Xu Wenbai hired someone to kill us through this woman."
What he wanted to express coincided with Xu Zhaoyi's previous guess.
Xu Zhaoyi nodded in understanding: "It seems that nothing happened by chance. This should be an organization that has been established for many years and comes from Southeast Asia. They are the kind that do all kinds of business, including murder and robbery."
"I've received news that Feng Lili has fled back to Southeast Asia to avoid the limelight because she's been targeted by the Qin family recently."
It was the night he went out to rescue Feng Lili.
Qin Sheng looked at the new task assigned by the system to assist Xu Zhaoyi in capturing Feng Lili, and sighed inwardly. He hoped that the reason of revenge for his parents could convince Xu Zhaoyi to go abroad with him at this time when he should have been concentrating on practicing to deal with the Qin family.
He had reason to suspect that Xu Zhaoyi might have complained in his heart more than once about his meddling in other people's affairs and not doing his job properly.
He didn't know that Xu Zhaoyi didn't actually think he was that unreliable, but simply thought that he was a little lovesick.
Now his love-brained personality was further solidified after he proposed to take Xu Zhaoyi to Nanyang to track Feng Lili.
Of course, the reason he gave was also very sufficient: "She probably won't dare to come back in the short term. Although this matter is not urgent, like a fish swimming back to the sea, the longer you wait, the smaller the chance of catching her will be. So I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to go out and gain some experience. After all, you have to try fighting others to clearly understand your own strength. What do you think?"
Xu Zhaoyi…Xu Zhaoyi felt that Qin Sheng might be able to read minds. After realizing that he wanted to leave for a while, he quickly and efficiently found an excuse and tried to go with him.
The reason why I didn't use an affirmative sentence is because the word "clingy" is very girly and is extremely incompatible with Qin Sheng's personality.
He was silent for a while, then asked, "I think it's okay, but are you sure you can go abroad with me without telling anyone?"
Qin Sheng just smiled at this and said, "Before I get engaged to you, it's normal for me to stay at home for a month or two. But to be on the safe side, let Husheng stay at home to look after the house. Your parents also need someone to check on them every day."
"But your safety..." Xu Zhaoyi didn't know if this would hurt his pride, but he had to say it: "With my current abilities, I'm not sure if I can protect you the whole time. The best I can do is guarantee that in the worst-case scenario, I'll die before you."
These words made Qin Sheng's eyes fluctuate slightly.
He coughed lightly. "There's no need to be so tragic. You should remember that noodles have the ability to teleport. Although the number of times is currently limited, we still have at least two more life-saving trump cards."
Actually it’s three times, but at least one must be kept, and it cannot be used up before facing the Qin family.
"Besides this and the guards the Qin family gave me, I also have enough other 'plug-ins' to protect myself. Don't worry, I will never let you die for me."
Although he said it with a smile, it was not entirely a joke. At least anyone could hear the seriousness in the last sentence.
Xu Zhaoyi blinked slowly: "..." How should he respond? Say you're welcome, it doesn't matter if I die for you?
The two looked at each other in silence.
Finally, this 'mutual confession of love' ended with the background music that Noodles played for them. When the melody with a strong sense of fate sounded, the embarrassment almost spread through the skin into the blood and flowed throughout the body.
Qin Sheng was the first to avoid the encounter, then with an expressionless face, he picked up the noodles that was still squatting with its back to them, pretending to be concentrating on feeding the little fish monster, and spanked it on its elastic buttocks more than ten times.
It's like beating sheets and quilts.
The noodles squeakingly cried out, and his eyes instantly turned into poached eggs as he looked at Xu Zhaoyi with tears in his eyes for help. He was originally a cartoon puppet, and now he looked even more weird.
Xu Zhaoyi raised his hand and pinched its face in annoyance. After laughing, he said in a clear and clear voice: "You deserve it."
Sometimes I just can’t understand why AI would spontaneously do something so meaningless and purely asking for a beating. Is it programmed with some random mischievous program?
So what's wrong with Qin Sheng for setting this kind of program for his AI Haodaer?
If Qin Sheng knew what he was thinking, he would definitely cry out for injustice. Noodles' personality was completely factory-set. In fact, he didn't quite understand at first why Noodles seemed to have a low IQ even though it was a product of high-dimensional technology. Later, after getting along for a long time, he began to guess the intention.
It is not a friendly experience to have a system that is so smart and impeccable relying on powerful algorithms staying in your brain all day and night, unless the host himself is a stupid idiot with a big nerve.
After realizing this, he simply divided it into two parts: the system is the system, and the noodles are the noodles. The system is a platform for exchanging interests, and the noodles are his exclusive customer service, a cute idiot.
Thinking about it this way, everything suddenly became clear.
Qin Sheng glanced at Xu Zhaoyi who took the noodles and kneaded them. If the theory that 'one of the host and the system must be stupid' was true, then it was conceivable that Xu Zhaoyi's system would not be a smart one either.
The evening meal for the little fish monster ended up being divided into three flavors: grilled fish, fish soup, and fried fish fillets. Qin Sheng was directing the meal, and the King of Life Guardians used its newly developed skills, using both hands and the six leaves on its head to quickly finish the meal.
It was just the first time showing off his skills, so the amount was not well controlled. Qin Sheng added the salt out of caution, but it was inevitable that some fish would slip through the net.
After Xu Zhaoyi took two bites of the grilled fish, Qin Sheng heard his inner voice again: [It's a bit spicy.]
Qin Sheng glanced at the amount of chili peppers in the grilled fish. Compared with the chopped pepper fish head, it didn't seem to be much, ignoring the fact that the 'non-lethal amount' was all chili peppers.
[Can’t eat anymore?] He thought that if he couldn’t eat anymore, he could eat something else. He could give all the grilled fish to the noodles. This brat could adjust himself and reduce his sensitivity to spiciness.
"It's not bad." Xu Zhaoyi, still chopping with his chopsticks, offered an objective assessment: "It felt like my mouth had a fight with the chili peppers. Hmm, it was quite satisfying."
Qin Sheng: [……] I don’t really understand what’s so enjoyable about it. When I describe it this way, it sounds like my mouth is being hit by chili peppers one-sidedly.
Fortunately, after the meal, Qin Sheng carefully observed Xu Zhaoyi and found that this time, although his face was red from the spiciness, he was indeed not burning hot all over like last time, and needed Qin Sheng to carry him back to bed and take care of him personally.
Noodles felt very sorry about this, but this time he only sighed secretly, otherwise he would have been beaten twice in one day.
The trip to Nanyang was finalized, but before that Qin Sheng still had to make some preparations.
After hearing about the arduous task of guarding the house alone, Husheng practiced even harder, and acted as if he was ready to live and die with the manor. Seeing this, Noodles couldn't help but reflect on whether he was living too hard. After all, people are afraid of comparison!
Its efforts were not in vain, and a few days later it gave Xu Zhaoyi a huge surprise.
The nursing student found Xu Zhaoyi doing morning exercises with Qin Sheng on the lawn outside. Of course, it was Xu Zhaoyi who was doing the morning exercises alone, while Qin Sheng, who was not suitable for excessive exercise, was drinking coffee beside them, mainly serving as a companion or to pass the time.
Noodles was pushing a machine that was several times larger than itself back and forth on the lawn. Husheng didn't know what it was, but he only noticed that the grass became flat wherever it walked.
But this is not important. It smiled and ran over with two juicy shepherd's purse leaves to Xu Zhaoyi.
"Master, look, these two leaves contain a part of my spiritual consciousness. They can be considered my parts, so they have a function that you may find useful."
Without further ado, it paused and revealed the answer directly: "They can be possessed by ghosts. As long as I don't resist, the possessed ghosts can control my consciousness left behind and express what they want to say. However, there are drawbacks. All conversations between you will be synchronized to me, and they can't be too far away from me."
Xu Zhaoyi took it with surprise. Compared with its functions, the shortcomings mentioned by Husheng could be ignored.
He squatted down and hugged the guard and said, "Thank you."
The leaves on Husheng's head curled up happily: "You're welcome. If you hadn't brought me back and given me so much spiritual energy, these abilities wouldn't be back. I will be even more powerful in the future!"
"You're already very impressive." Xu Zhaoyi asked with a smile, "Is there a time limit for possession? You know my parents aren't in good condition."
"No." Husheng shook his head: "If it were a human, it would consume a lot of energy. That's because the yang energy in humans would harm ghosts. But I am a demon, and demonic energy itself cannot harm ghosts."
Xu Zhaoyi couldn't help but hug it again.
Qin Sheng also came over, observed the two leaves, and asked, "Does it need maintenance? If it doesn't have roots, can it be planted in spiritual water?"
Husheng thought for a moment and said, "Master, that's right! I originally planned to use each leaf only once. If I use spiritual water to keep them, they should be able to last longer, but this would be a bit of a waste of spiritual energy."
"It's not a waste." Qin Sheng touched the leaf on its head: "I guess it's not easy for you to cultivate a piece. Compared to this, spiritual energy is worthless."
"Okay." Husheng was just used to saving spiritual energy.
Now that there was a way to communicate, Xu Zhaoyi couldn't wait to try it out. Qin Sheng naturally wouldn't spoil his fun, so he went upstairs with him, and Noodles also pulled the guard to follow.
In the dim room, two leaves were trapped in a formation and placed next to the soul-soothing jade. Xu Zhaoyi condensed a trace of spiritual power on his fingertips, guiding his parents who were sleeping in the soul-soothing jade to possess the leaves, and then gently woke them up.
For a moment, the veins of the leaves trembled as if alive, and at the same time made a humming sound. The sound sounded fierce and ominous, which made people feel fear instinctively. It was not until the halo of light emitted by the Soul-Soothing Jade expanded to include the two leaves that peace returned to the world.
The possession was obviously successful, but everyone waited patiently for a while, and the leaves did not make any sound.
Qin Sheng looked at Xu Zhaoyi, who unconsciously pursed his lips, and comforted him: "Don't worry, my father-in-law and mother-in-law have been unconscious for too long. Give them some time."
Xu Zhaoyi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he quickly looked at the two shepherd's purse leaves on the table. It took him a while to realize that it was Qin Sheng who was calling father-in-law and mother-in-law in his heart, and his parents couldn't hear it no matter whether they were fully awake at the moment.
"Are you trying to scare me?" he confirmed with mixed feelings.
[Huh?] Qin Sheng's smile deepened a little: [How should I know you would be scared?]
[……] Xu Zhaoyi took a deep breath: [I know this name is just a joke, but before I explain our current relationship to them, please don’t call me that in front of them.]
Don't scare his parents, who are already facing a lot of trouble. Even if Qin Sheng looks good, his parents probably won't appreciate a daughter-in-law who is taller than their son.
Qin Sheng couldn't help but nodded with a smile.
This was the first time Xu Zhaoyi wanted to punch him like this, after he made up his mind to completely distinguish the Qin Sheng in this life from the one in the previous life and treat them as two different people.
After a while, one of the leaves finally moved a little. Qin Sheng felt relieved, patted Xu Zhaoyi on the shoulder, and then went out with Noodles and Husheng.
He felt that it was unreasonable for Xu Zhaoyi to be so worried that his existence would scare his parents. It was obviously the two strange-looking "children" in their family who were more worthy of concern.
A cartoon pseudo-human baby is fine during the day, but once in a dimly lit environment, it is like a horror fairy tale shining into reality, and its smile can scare a coward to death.
The other one had the appearance of a normal human child, and looked well-behaved and sensible, but it was a pity that the swaying leaves on its head, which were more flexible than octopus tentacles, ruined everything.
Xu Zhaoyi, who stayed in the room, lowered his eyes, raised his hand to touch his left shoulder that had been patted, and let out a breath.
"Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi..."
"Yes, Mom."
He instantly gathered his thoughts, regained his composure, and patiently communicated word by word with his mother who had woken up earlier.
This conversation with his parents after many years was much more difficult than he had imagined, not even much easier than talking to a relative with severe Alzheimer's disease. A simple expression had to be repeated many times before a soul that had been devastated to the point of being unresponsive could understand its meaning.
More often than not, the mother would just unconsciously repeat her own nickname while her mind was empty.
However, Xu Zhaoyi did not show any impatience. Compared with facing the cold tombstone alone for more than ten years, this kind of conversation with each word responded to made him very satisfied.
But…Xu Zhaoyi found time to think and wander off in his busy schedule: [Hey!]
"What's wrong?" Qin Sheng's voice was filled with laughter.
Xu Zhaoyi paused for a moment before saying, "I'm afraid I won't be able to introduce their son's new fiancé to my parents today."
[…Are they okay?] Qin Sheng immediately understood the meaning behind this sentence: [Don't worry, I won't go looking for excitement in front of them before you agree.]
"Thank you so much." Xu Zhaoyi's mouth twitched: "I hope the scene won't be too exciting when I confess."
Qin Sheng laughed and reminded him: "Is there a possibility that as long as the Qin family's affairs are resolved and we divorce quickly, you don't have to confess."
He didn't want to offer his father-in-law and mother-in-law a cup of son-in-law tea as much as he said. If Xu Zhaoyi really felt embarrassed, he could just hide it in front of the two elders. After all, the show was only for outsiders to see, and even if it was a show of affection, it could not be shown to the deceased.
Perhaps his reminder was too reasonable, Xu Zhaoyi on the other end couldn't argue with him and simply expressed his agreement with silence.
