Since Chen Xinyi could not get through to Master Shen, she would go to the Demon King!
Da Da saw how she had turned her back on him and looked down at his robust body. He turned his head and said to Azurite, who was busy directing others on how to place things, “Azurite, do I look very ugly?”
“No, you’re fine.” Azurite did not lift her head once. She just answered and carried on with what she was doing.
Da Da touched his head and gave a straightforward smile, revealing big white teeth. He said, “That’s good.”
It was good as long as Azurite did not think he was ugly and mind that he was robust. But it was because he was robust that he could pick up Azurite effortlessly, and then when he lifted her up, he could even let her hold onto his arms like a swing.
Thinking of how the two of them would get along in the future, Da Da’s tanned face appeared bashful. When he recalled what he had just said to Chen Xinyi, he quickly explained to Azurite, “Mei’er asked me to say those words just now in order to make her give up her pursuit. You must not misunderstand.”
He did not want anyone else to promise herself to him. He wanted Azurite to make the promise.
Azurite glanced up at him, puzzled. She made a faint noise and continued with her busy work. Misunderstanding? There was nothing for her to misunderstand.
Seeing that she agreed, Da Da went about his business happily.
Mei’er accompanied Feng Tianlan to the second floor and asked, “Aren’t you going to tell her you’re a woman?”
She could see that Chen Xinyi was very infatuated with Tianlan.
“What am I to do if she finds out that I’m a woman and likes me more?” said Feng Tianlan without looking up. She glanced around the empty room, thinking about what to put in there and how to place things.
Listening to Feng Tianlan’s ever so confident words, Mei’er tittered charmingly, “Tianlan, you have really changed a lot recently. When I first got to know you, you spoke very coldly with little expression on your face.”
Now she smiled more and spoke more humorously. But she was still frosty in front of outsiders.
Feng Tianlan smiled and said, “That’s because there used to be nothing, and now I have everything.”
Previously, she had only wanted to return to Xuantian Continent with a vengeance. She wanted to kill Shen Yunya and the others to take back the Shen Family. She only had hatred in her heart and was full of hostility toward the world. But now she had Mobai, Yunzhu, and the others, as well as the United Mercenary Regiment.
There were a lot of people she cared about. They had melted her cold heart, so she restored her true nature slowly and naturally. She did not need to use a chilly mask to disguise and protect herself.
“It’s better this way…” She used to be the same, but then…
Fortunately, she met such a lovely group of people.
Si Mobai was dealing with the affairs of Bailan Alliance when he heard his subordinates report, “Master, there is a girl, Miss Chen, outside seeking an audience.”
“No, I will not see her.” Si Mobai did not even look up. Without Lan’er around, he would not look at another woman even if she were there.
Chen Xinyi was outside the door. The answer she had waited for turned out to be that he would not see her. She was incredibly sad and anxious. But when she thought about it, she decided to wait outside in the hot sun. Since she could not go in to meet him, she would wait, as he would have to come out eventually.
Si Mobai was busy until the evening. He personally went to the kitchen to cook two dishes and then went out to deliver the evening meal and accompany Feng Tianlan. Just as he exited the Bailan Alliance’s door, a figure suddenly rushed over to block his way.
“Demon King, I have something to talk to you about,” Chen Xinyi said.
“Get lost!” Si Mobai raised his hand and struck her to send her flying.
With a bang, Chen Xinyi hit the post hard and slumped to the ground. She looked at the quickly departing Si Mobai and hurriedly said in a loud voice, “It’s about Master Shen and Feng Tianlan.”
Si Mobai stopped in his tracks and slightly raised his eyebrows as he turned around to glance at her. “Master Shen and Feng Tianlan?” he asked.
He remembered that this voice seemed to belong to the person who was going to offer herself to Lan’er that night.
