~4 min read 641 words

"What's wrong with a woman? Having three wives and four concubines isn't that normal?

Look at your father me—don't I have over a dozen?

Really, following Xu Chen won't put you at a disadvantage; trust your father."

At this moment, Jiang Wencong didn't truly want Jiang Xiaoran to marry Xu Chen.

Rather, he wanted to get Jiang Xiaoran out of the way as quickly as possible.

After all, she would have to marry someone eventually anyway.

Marrying her directly to Xu Chen, he actually thought that was quite good.

He could accept it; he could completely accept it.

Letting Xu Chen take Jiang Xiaoran away—wasn't that a delightful thing?

From now on, he would have no more worries.

Of course, if Jiang Xiaoran didn't leave, that was fine too; it didn't matter.

After all, he could accept either outcome.

Jiang Xiaoran stamped her jade foot and said, "Father, can you really accept someone like Xu Chen?"

Jiang Wencong replied:

"No, it was just a suggestion. If you're unwilling, your father won't force you, okay?

Besides, your father sees that you don't seem to have no feelings for Xu Chen.

Whenever your father mentions him, you seem to get a bit irritable, right?"

As he spoke, Jiang Wencong's expression grew strange.

His own daughter still claimed she didn't like Xu Chen.

Just looking at her, he felt his daughter was lying.

Clearly she liked him; she liked him quite a lot.

Jiang Xiaoran snorted coldly, "I don't like him; he's just a scumbag."

At that moment, Xiao Li twisted the flesh at Xu Chen's waist, "Scumbag, you really are something."

Xu Chen slapped Xiao Li's jade hand away and said:

"Hey, hey, hey, you and I aren't in a Dao Companion relationship; this is a bit excessive.

Wow, your fangs are even growing out; Xiao Li, calm down.

We just met; don't go around doing reckless things."

At this moment, seeing Xiao Li looking as if she really wanted to bite him, Xu Chen immediately bared his teeth.

These were real fox fangs; no joke.

Xiao Li retracted her fangs and ground her teeth, "Scumbag."

Xu Chen shrugged, "Don't misunderstand; they insisted I cure Luo Caiwei's illness. Forget it; I'm too lazy to explain to you; it doesn't matter."

He had just wanted to explain.

But then he thought, why explain anything? No need.

Xiao Li gritted her teeth, "If you don't explain, I won't give you the Nine-Tailed Emperor Dao."

Xu Chen: "......"

That was going too far, this little girl.

Xu Chen helplessly said, "It's because of Luo Caiwei's illness."

After speaking, Xu Chen recounted the whole story.

After finishing, Xu Chen sighed, "Saving a life surpasses building a seven-story pagoda. Although I'm not willing, for Luo Caiwei, I am willing to sacrifice myself for righteousness."

At this moment, Xu Chen's face was filled with solemnity; not a trace of frivolity remained.

Xiao Li was stunned; he did this kind of thing for this reason?

It seemed he wasn't quite such a scumbag after all.

After all, this was the only way to keep Luo Caiwei in the dark.

From beginning to end, Xu Chen silently bore it alone, never letting Luo Caiwei know.

This truly was sacrificing oneself for righteousness.

She spoke softly, "... I'm sorry; I misunderstood you."

Xu Chen said, "Sigh, it's fine; there are always many people in this world who misunderstand me; one more or one less doesn't matter."

Hearing this, Xiao Li immediately felt aggrieved, "I just didn't know the truth; don't blame me. Shall I transmit the Nine-Tailed Emperor Dao to you now?"

At this moment, Xiao Li's tone carried a hint of coquetry.

Xu Chen spoke softly, "That would naturally be excellent, but does this cause harm to your body?"

Xiao Li said happily, "A little, but it doesn't matter; I can recover."
