He wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I am here.] Zhen Yuan transmitted, and Shen Xu forced himself to calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The firm arm around his shoulders grounded him, and his vision cleared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Qin, is something wrong?\" One of the newcomers asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person was a young man in his late teens or early twenties. He was tall, lean, handsome, and had a deep but soothing voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his most distinctive feature was his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a kingly aura that made him stand out even when standing in the middle of a humble store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Xiao, I like this red robe, but these two are trying to take it from me.\" Qin Ran said in an aggrieved voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nonsense!\" Shen Xu shouted and glared at the young woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under another circumstance, he would have been impressed by her ability to turn black to white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, this was not one such circumstance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can we take it from you when we have already paid for it?\" He asked angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xu was angry at the young woman, but he was angrier at the uncontrollable situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they had never met, he recognised one of the new arrivals as soon as the two stepped on the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called 'brother Xiao' was Xiao Weimin, and he was the twenty years old main protagonist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As described in the book, he wore a dark blue robe, black boots, and his hair was held up with a silver guan engraved with images of the four divine beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Weimin was a martial cultivator, and his current cultivation was at the peak of the early stage of the foundation establishment realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the book, Shen Xu knew that Xiao Weimin would break through to the mid-stage of the foundation establishment realm shortly after returning to the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This...\" Xiao Weimin said and looked at Qin Ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing she couldn't pretend, Qin Ran pouted, and her eyes turned red. She looked on the verge of tears, and Xiao Weimin felt helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young master, how about leaving the robe for young Miss Qin? I will definitely compensate you for the loss.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why should I do that? I bought the robe because I like it. There is no reason why I should give it up.\" Shen Xu said stubbornly and tried not to panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already married Zhen Yuan and wasn't attracted to the main protagonist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, something had undoubtedly gone wrong because the person beside the protagonist gave him a familiar feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Who is he?' Shen Xu wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person was dressed in white, wore a silver mask, and had a gentler aura than everyone present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Shen Xu had to guess, he would say the person was a double.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Why do I feel a connection with him?' Shen Xu panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to rip off the person's mask to see his face, but he still had some rationality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling aggrieved, he turned to Zhen Yuan and almost roared in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, when he was panicking, his husband was unblinkingly staring at the person!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Shen Xu was overcome with anger, and he temporarily forgot his confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With red eyes, he pinched Zhen Yuan's waist, and the man immediately came to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's the matter?\" Zhen Yuan asked, but the only answer he got was a glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Did I do something wrong?' He wondered but continued to study the new arrivals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Xiao, do you see his attitude?\" Qin Ran complained and pointed at Shen Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Shen Xu only rolled his eyes at her unreasonable behaviour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Miss Qin, the young master has already bought the robe and isn't willing to give it up. How about buying another robe?\" Xiao Weimin asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I only like red.\" Qin Ran said and stomped her foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young miss Qin, we will leave for the Dragon capital in three days. We can buy another robe when we pass through other towns.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...but...\" Qin Ran wanted to argue but eventually stopped herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Weimin was a direct disciple of the dean of the martial arts school at the Divine Rainbow Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She met him by chance and wanted to become his woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For that, Qin Ran pretended to be gentle and would continue to do so until she succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am sorry for being unreasonable. I just like the robe too much.\" She apologised, and Shen Xu was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was clear about the young lady's temper and could see the unwillingness in her eyes as she apologised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Shen Xu had more important things to worry about so he accepted the apology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I don't remember a young Miss Qin in the original book. She is another variable.' He thought but put the matter at the back of his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment, the most urgent thing was to figure out the identity of the protagonist's companion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young masters, I apologise for the disturbance.\" Xiao Weimin said and focused his eyes on Shen Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My name is Xiao Weimin, and my companion is Bai Guo.\" He introduced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young master Xiao, young master Bai, it's nice to meet you. My name is Shen Xu, and he is my Taoist companion, Zhen Yuan.\" Shen Xu said and a red flush appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't used to referring to Zhen Yuan as his Taoist companion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he felt the need to clarify the matter in front of Xiao Weimin, Bai Guo, and Qin Ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do young master Bai and the two fellow Daoists know each other? Qin Ran suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why does fellow Daoist Qin think so?\" Shen Xu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have noticed that fellow Daoist Zhen has been staring at young master Bai.\" Qin Ran said with undisguised mockery in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she didn't get the red robe, she didn't want Shen Xu to feel better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What if you get the robe? Your Taoist companion has fallen in love with another double.' She gloated in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the first time I have met the two young masters.\" Bai Guo answered, and Shen Xu heaved a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had managed to change his life by marrying Zhen Yuan, and he didn't want strange variables to appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why do I feel there is some resemblance between fellow Daoist Shen and young master Bai? Your eyes and chins are similar.\" Qin Ran insisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our Canglan continent is a vast and mysterious place. It is not strange for two people to have one or two similar features.\" Shen Xu said, but he was secretly not convinced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt a connection to Bai Guo, and he couldn't help but worry they were relatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is fate for the two of you to meet. You should consider becoming friends.\" Xiao Weimin suggested, and his lips curled into a handsome smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"GuoGuo, what do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I also think it's fate.\" Bai Guo said but then frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was sure he had never met the other party, but he couldn't ignore the sense of familiarity hidden in the depths of his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Did I meet him somewhere before?' He wondered but shook his head in denial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't lost his memories, so he was sure he had never met Shen Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I will leave it to fate.' He thought and drove out the confusing thoughts from his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the young masters have time, how about eating together at noon?\" Xiao Weimin asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We...\" Shen Xu wanted to refuse, but Zhen Yuan interrupted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We still have some things to do at noon but are free for afternoon tea.\" He said, and Shen Xu couldn't help but look at him in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he hadn't known his husband for many days, Shen Xu knew that Zhen Yuan was not social.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it was avoidable, Zhen Yuan would never take the initiative to get along with others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he was taking the initiative at this time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Did he really fall in love with that Bai Guo?' Shen Xu doubted, and his heart turned sour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Bai Guo appeared on the second floor, Zhen Yuan hadn't stopped looking at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made Shen Xu unhappy, and he felt an itch to pinch his husband again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he concealed his unhappiness and planned to talk about it when they left the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, why don't we meet at the Blue Spring teahouse?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Shen Xu put the red robe in his storage bag and followed Zhen Yuan out of the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they were ten metres from the Myriad Treasures pavilion, Shen Xu could no longer endure his unhappiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What was that about? Why did you keep staring at that Bai Guo?\" He questioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he heard the question, Zhen Yuan looked at Shen Xu, and his eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is my wife jealous?\" He asked playfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is jealous?!\" Shen Xu snorted, but his cheeks flushed a brilliant red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, I will never let you down.\" Zhen Yuan assured and rubbed Shen Xu's hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it's not that, why did you keep looking at him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I told you that everything has laws; it is the same for people.\" Zhen Yuan said, and his eyes turned solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you trying to say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"XiaoXu, I am sure you and Bai Guo are close relatives.\" Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu felt cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the novel, the original Shen Xu was adopted by his maternal aunt, and he never met his biological parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he transmigrated into the book, Shen Xu didn't plan to find his relatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, with the appearance of Bai Guo, it seemed that things wouldn't be so easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Were you looking at him because you were trying to comprehend the laws around him? You want to understand our origin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something like that.\" Zhen Yuan said and clenched his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If what he guessed was right, he and Shen Xu couldn't ignore Bai Guo.\u003C\u002Fp>",1673,"2026-06-06T02:30:15.614Z",1,"novelbin.me","ce5ec6c1eb72ddecfe987bcd17bfcec8b0a83bf3bd125e2e528e4336d13b1b76","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-14","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-12",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffalling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-cover.jpg"]
