The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

"Hmph, don't give me that. Chen Xuan, you've been missing for so long, and when you finally show up, you're carrying so much stuff and hiding a way to leave this huge space. Yet you haven't said a word. Tell me yourself, do you even still care about me as your sister-in-law?"

Xia Chuwei bit her lower lip, her chest heaving violently, feeling both angry and aggrieved.

Standing to the side, Shi Meitong looked at the tense atmosphere and felt a little lost. She quietly moved to the side, trying to make herself less noticeable.

Well, right now she's just Chen Xuan's little beauty; everything else can wait.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan quickly smiled apologetically, took a few steps forward, and said with a flattering expression, "Sister-in-law, please don't be angry. I was just delayed by something. You are the most important person in my heart. How could I dare to forget you?"

Xia Chuwei snorted coldly and turned her head away: "Hmph, stop with your sweet talk. If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have stayed out of the public eye for so long." Despite her words, her tone softened slightly.

After all, Chen Xuan had personally told Shi Meitong that he was the most important person.

After a pause, Xia Chuwei continued, "Fine, I won't hold it against you. Come to my house tomorrow; there are some things I need to talk to you about. Don't make excuses not to come again."

After speaking, she glanced at Chen Xuan sideways, her eyes still showing some dissatisfaction, but more so, anticipation.

"Oh, tomorrow?"

"What? Don't you want to go?" Xia Chuwei's eyes were dangerous.

"No, it's just that my older brother..."

"He and that guy named Duan Fei have a mission tomorrow!"

"What?! You didn't even call me when you had a mission?" Chen Xuan immediately panicked, put Xia Chuwei down, and was about to leave.

He still wants to go out and cause trouble, otherwise, Yu Guili might follow the original plot and have more and more people and strength around him.

"Chen Xuan! If you dare to walk out of this door today, we shall pretend we are strangers from now on!" Xia Chuwei's eyes immediately reddened when she saw Chen Xuan trying to leave.

You keep saying I'm the most important person to you, but as soon as you see a chance to go out, you immediately abandon me! Don't I have any pride?

Seeing Xia Chuwei's red eyes and the look of impending tears, Chen Xuan's heart tightened, and he abruptly pulled back the step he had just taken.

"Alright, alright, Wei'er, don't be like this. It's my fault. I was confused just now. I won't leave. I won't go anywhere, okay?"

Xia Chuwei's body trembled slightly, her voice choked with emotion: "You only have those messy things on your mind, you don't care about me at all, and I've been thinking about you all this time."

“Wei’er, no one can replace you in my heart. Yu Guili had a mission and didn’t call me, which is why I was in a hurry. But if this makes you sad or upset, I would be guilty even if I died a thousand times.”

As Chen Xuan spoke, he gently wiped away the tears welling up in Xia Chuwei's eyes.

Shi Meitong watched silently from the side, feeling somewhat uncomfortable, but she didn't know what to say.

'Hmph, Xia Chuwei, you're hogging Chen Xuan like this now, but wait until... when you're begging for mercy, I won't be helping you at all!'

Then, Chen Xuan pulled Xia Chuwei to sit down on a chair and coaxed her softly, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry. I will definitely go to your house tomorrow and keep you company. I will tell you everything that has happened during this time."

Xia Chuwei sniffed and looked up at Chen Xuan: "You're not allowed to lie to me again, or I really won't talk to you anymore."

Chen Xuan nodded solemnly: "I will never break my promise, I swear. If I break my promise, may I..." Before he could finish speaking, Xia Chuwei reached out and covered his mouth: "Pah, pah, pah, who asked you to make such a vicious oath? You just need to keep your word."

Seeing Xia Chuwei smile through her tears, Chen Xuan finally felt relieved.

It seems he'll definitely get that million Destiny Points tomorrow. As for Yu Guili... well, whatever. Even if he has some kind of extraordinary encounter, he'll bring it back anyway. He should just focus on what's right in front of him for now.

After chatting for a while, Xia Chuwei reluctantly left.

The next morning, Chen Xuan went to Yu Guili's palace early, and after finding that he was not there, he went to Xia Chuwei's place.

Sunlight streamed through the window into the room. Xia Chuwei wore a light pink dress, her hair falling smoothly over her shoulders, making her look fresh and gentle.

When she saw Chen Xuan walk in, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, and her eyes were full of smiles.

"You've finally arrived! I thought you were going to break your promise again," Xia Chuwei said, feigning annoyance, but her tone betrayed her joy.

Chen Xuan smiled and walked to her side, gently flicking her nose. "How could I? I'll definitely keep my promise. Look, I even brought you a little gift." As he spoke, he took out a delicate little box from behind his back and handed it to Xia Chuwei.

Xia Chuwei's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to open the box. Inside was a beautiful necklace with a sparkling crystal as the pendant.

"Wow, so beautiful!" she exclaimed, a happy smile spreading across her face.

Given her current level of understanding and status, she wouldn't actually care about these things at all; what she cares about is who gave them to her.

"Do you like it?" Chen Xuan looked at her, his eyes full of doting affection.

"I like it, of course I like it! I like anything you give me!" Xia Chuwei looked up, her eyes sparkling.

"Really?" Chen Xuan suddenly hugged her.

"Then I'll give you a treasure, do you want it?"

"Baby? What baby?"

"It means exactly what it says..."

"Get out of here! How is this possible! I'm already a half-step Immortal King, how could I possibly still have... that kind of thing!" Xia Chuwei lightly punched Chen Xuan.

"Haha, by the way, you told me yesterday that you had something to tell me. What was it?" Chen Xuan suddenly remembered and asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuwei blushed slightly and hesitated for a moment: "Actually... it's not a big deal, I just wanted to spend more time with you and talk to you."

"Then……"

"Then what?"

"And then there's the pearl you gave me last time... I think I've figured out how to use it!" Xia Chuwei's face turned bright red.

"Oh?" Chen Xuan's expression was subtle.

"However, the function of this pearl can only be revealed to you in the secret chamber..." Xia Chuwei became even more embarrassed.

"Alright, then I'll see. Even I don't know how to use this treasure, so how do you know it!" Chen Xuan said, picking Xia Chuwei up in his arms and carrying her into the secret room with ease, as if this were his home.

Upon entering the secret room, Xia Chuwei broke away from Chen Xuan and shyly went to the bedside. She picked up a box from the bedside table, inside which was the grape pearl that Chen Xuan had given her!
