Xie Lige was stunned.
He did not expect Hua Wu Que to ask such a question.
After a long while, he finally reacted.
He squatted down and faced the child.
He looked at him and smiled. "Why did you ask this question?"
Hua Wu Que said softly, "I don't want to get back together with Elder Aunt."
Xie Lige understood.
The child was protecting his food.
Hua Wu Que had been a child in Shifting Flower Palace since he was young.
Everyone basically protected him. When he was not around, he grew up beside Yao Yue.
He knew his sister very well. She was cold on the outside but soft on the inside.
She had scared off countless children. The only one who did not leave was sticking to her every day.
He remembered how Hua Wu Que used to run to Inviting Moon Palace.
Xie Lige patted the depressed Little Wu Que's head and comforted him. "She won't."
"It's not like you don't know your Elder Aunt's personality."
"Once she makes a decision, no one can change it." Xie Lige said with certainty.
He had a deep understanding of Yao Yue.
He was at least 70% sure that what he said was correct.
Hua Wu Que was instantly relieved. The huge rock in his heart was safely placed on the ground.
The monkey that was jumping around in his heart was also suppressed by the Pacification Mountain. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
A large hand pressed down on the top of his head.
Hua Wu Que raised his head in confusion.
"Mm." Xie Lige looked in the direction of the palace and pressed his hand on the child's head.
He raised his eyebrows.
Hua Wu Que pursed his lips.
With every step he took, he turned his head three times as he walked toward his own hall.
Xie Lige smiled as he watched his son's small figure disappear around the corner.
He was carefully led by a maid in white who was hiding behind the palace door and walked into the depths of the palace.
"Phew!"
Xie Lige stood up and took a deep breath. "Alright, I have to go back now."
His palace was not far from Hua Wu Que. It would not take long to reach there. Along the way, there was a thick layer of flowers on the ground. The fragrance of the flowers filled his nose. It felt good to step on them. Xie Lige did not feel lonely. He closed his eyes and enjoyed it. He walked into his palace, bathed and changed his clothes. He prepared to sleep. Before he slept, he felt as if he was still in the sea of flowers.
It was a good night's sleep.
Early morning.
Xie Lige was sleeping very comfortably in his bed. He was dreaming, and in his dream, he had already become a man. He held a long sword in his hand and slaughtered everywhere, slaying demons and devils. Along the way, he had defended justice countless times and saved countless people. He was recommended by those who worshipped him to be the Martial Arts Alliance Master. After that, he even fought 300 rounds with his sworn enemy, the Devil Sect Master. Just as he was about to kill that guy with one strike, the Devil Sect Master raised his head and revealed his true face.
Then, Xie Lige woke up in fright.
He abruptly opened his eyes, and his pupils dilated in shock. He looked around and realized that he was still in the Shifting Flower Palace. He instantly relaxed and touched his little heart in fear. 'That scared me to death.'
Who could tell him why the leader of the Demon Sect in his dream had the System's face of his master?
It was still that familiar sinister smile …
Based on Xie Lige's many years of experience in being tricked, every time that guy's sinister smile appeared from the microphone, it was definitely not a good thing. There was an 80 to 90% chance that he was digging a hole for him. Luckily, it was just a dream.
Suddenly, a faint voice came from the corner, "Little Auntie, you're awake?"
Xie Lige reflexively froze. He hadn't even put his hand down to calm his heart when he was so scared that he almost couldn't breathe. Luckily, he was very familiar with his son's voice. He adjusted his breathing until he returned to his normal state.
Xie Lige calmly turned his head to look at the corner. As expected, at the door, he saw Hua Wu Que looking at him innocently with his black eyes like a little squirrel. His eyes were filled with suspicion.
"Nothing."
Xie Lige lied through his teeth. He took advantage of the fact that Hua Wu Que was still young and couldn't tell whether he was telling the truth or not. Then, he pretended as if nothing had happened and started to change the topic.
"Why are you here?"
"I've finished cultivating." Hua Wu Que closed the door and walked to the side of the bed.
When Xie Lige heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's almost noon?"
Hua Wu Que was a child who had a very strict sense of time. He did everything in an orderly manner. He didn't need anyone to urge him to do his cultivation every day. He carefully divided his cultivation into two parts, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. When he finished cultivating in the morning, it was officially noon. After he finished cultivating, he would look for his Little Auntie to go to the Inviting Moon Palace for lunch.
Hua Wu Que nodded his head honestly.
When Xie Lige saw this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't think that he would spend so much time dreaming. As expected, nothing good would come out of meeting a dog of a master. Even in his dreams, he would dig a hole for him.
"Then, Wu Que, will Little Auntie be alright later?" Xie Lige hurriedly sat up and coaxed Hua Wu Que.
Hua Wu Que nodded his head obediently, indicating that he wasn't in a hurry.
Xie Lige lifted the blanket and stood up. He was wearing pajamas with his chest open, revealing his firm abs. He didn't seem to care that there was a child present. His smooth black hair reached his waist and swayed with every step he took.
Xie Lige yawned lazily. He used one hand to comb his black hair behind his head, revealing his handsome features. Without any makeup, he looked like a lazy handsome man. His every move was filled with a devilish aura that made people blush uncontrollably. His pair of long legs were also incomparably arrogant.
His left hand opened the closet door. Xie Lige's fingers picked out a neatly folded set of pink clothes. In his mind, he inexplicably remembered the expression on Yan Nantian's face when he found out that he was a man. His face was filled with despair. It was really pleasing to the eye. When he thought of this, Xie Lige's mood immediately brightened. He couldn't help but hum a song as he picked out a set of clothes that were even more gorgeous than the ones he wore yesterday.
Hua Wu Que leaned against the side of the bed and looked at his nominal little aunt, who was actually his godfather. He smiled sinisterly as he picked out his clothes. His every move was not feminine at all.
The latter placed his chosen clothes aside and began to take off his clothes. Hua Wu Que sensibly moved his gaze away.
He wasn't used to watching others change their clothes.
Who would have thought that Xie Lige would notice it.
"Why are you moving away?"
Xie Lige began to act like a hooligan. He teased Hua Wu Que, "The 'Do Not Look' that your big aunt taught you can't be used here. We are both men, so it's all the same. Look, it's pretty good. Your little aunt, I, have abs."
It had to be said that abs were one of the happiest things that Xie Lige had experienced since he transmigrated to this world. Even though he was wearing women's clothes and speaking in a female voice, he was still a strong man. His eight pack abs didn't disappear. His unwavering attitude made Xie Lige feel extremely touched.
Hua Wu Que's face turned red from Xie Lige's teasing. However, his face remained expressionless. He replied very seriously, "Do not look at indecent things is a gentleman's etiquette. There is no difference between men and women."
Xie Lige looked at his red ears. His evil thoughts were about to emerge. Fortunately, he was still rational. There wasn't much time left. He had to hurry up. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to eat lunch.
He skillfully put on his clothes and quickly dressed up. He was once again a peerless beauty. Every word and smile of his was extremely moving. His almond eyes and red lips were extremely seductive. Anyone who looked at him would be tempted.
"Let's go."
Xie Lige stroked his lips and smiled. He gently extended his hand into the air. His hand was delicate and white.
Hua Wu Que raised his hand and placed it on his big hand.
The two of them walked towards Inviting Moon Palace.
Once they entered Inviting Moon Palace, Xie Lige saw the situation in front of him clearly. He raised his eyebrows and looked around discreetly. However, he didn't find the person he was thinking of.
"There's no need to look. Yan Nantian has left."
Yao Yue sat on the high platform. She was as pure as the moon in the sky. When she saw Xie Lige's actions, she said calmly.
Xie Lige's little trick was discovered. He felt a little regretful. He had originally wanted to let that fellow experience it again. He didn't expect him to leave.
However, this feeling only lasted for a short while. Before the regret could reach his heart, he was happy. Yan Nantian's departure meant that his sister had rejected him.
When he thought of this, Xie Lige's mood became even better.
Yao Yue raised her eyes and looked at the happy Xie Lige. A trace of a smile flashed across her eyes.
Yesterday, Yan Nantian had indeed suggested that they get back together. However, she had rejected him. At the moment of her rejection, she was even a little surprised. When she looked at Yan Nantian, she was surprised. Yan Nantian revealed an expression of 'I knew it'.
Yan Nantian laughed bitterly and said, "I know your personality. You probably wouldn't agree."
At that time, Yao Yue didn't say anything.
"It's good that he left."
Xie Lige held Hua Wu Que's hand and walked to the center of the hall. There, the maids had already prepared everything. Exquisite dishes were placed in the center.
After sending Hua Wu Que to his seat, Xie Lige sat in the seat opposite Yao Yue.
Yao Yue also walked down from the high platform and came to her seat. When she heard Xie Lige's words, she raised her eyebrows.
"You have something to say to him?"
Xie Lige shrugged indifferently and said, "It's nothing. It's good that he left."
The maids beside Yao Yue began to serve the dishes. When they finished, they retreated to the side and lowered their heads, waiting.
Yao Yue said calmly, "I promised him something."
Xie Lige picked up the silver chopsticks beside him and began to eat. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is it?"
"When Wu Que comes of age, he must go out and roam the world."
"In the name of the Shifting Flower Palace?"
Yao Yue's expression was calm as she ate. However, her tone was undeniably certain, "Of course!"
Hua Wu Que would forever be the child of the Shifting Flower Palace.
When Xie Lige heard this, he immediately relaxed. In any case, he had originally planned to let Hua Wu Que go out and roam the world. This was also good. However, something suddenly flashed through his mind. After thinking carefully, his expression became serious.
Xie Lige frowned and asked, "Is the child by Yan Nantian's side going as well?"
He still remembered that there should be another child.
Yao Yue's emotions didn't fluctuate as much as Xie Lige. She glanced at Xie Lige and said coldly, "What are you worried about? Will Wu Que lose?"
