Reborn through an arranged marriage, I awakened the Shennong farming system.

It must be said that Hua Gengchen's words made some sense, but Bai Ze was still somewhat hesitant.

His original plan was to wait until Su Bai's Shennong bloodline was fully activated before telling Su Bai what had happened, because neither of them could afford to lose!

The situation in the demon realm is already precarious, and the situation in the human realm is not much better. The demon race has been lurking in the shadows, watching with predatory intent. If Su Bai refuses to help, they can only watch helplessly as the demon realm and the human realm face crisis.

"What if Su Bai completely ignores our explanations after he finds out the truth?" Bai Ze said worriedly. Heaven had only given them this one chance; if they missed it, they would have no way to regret it.

There's really no way Hua Gengchen can guarantee that!

"Then let's take it step by step, and not say everything at once." This will also give Su Bai some time to accept reality.

The existence of fairies is indeed difficult for humans to accept, because they believe that fairies only appear in myths and novels, and are something invented by humans that does not exist in the real world.

Bai Ze pondered for a moment and thought this was a good idea. "Then let's tell Su Bai step by step!" He hoped Su Bai could handle it, since the truth was truly unbelievable to humans.

"Hmm." Hua Gengchen was satisfied and stepped into the house. He needed to find Hua Jueming to deal with the trucks and also to figure out the proper way to address him.

Since Su Bai truly dislikes it, Hua Gengchen will not go against Su Bai's wishes.

Anyway, he could only barely find these mundane things pleasing to the eye. After he had explained everything to Su Bai, he would take Su Bai to the warehouse where he stored his things, and Su Bai could take whatever he liked!

It took Bai Ze a while to realize that he had come to find out what Hua Gengchen and Su Bai had talked about, but how did it turn into talking about confessing to Su Bai?

He still hadn't figured out what had happened between Hua Gengchen and Su Bai!

Bai Ze gritted his teeth on the spot. Hua Gengchen, that scoundrel, he must have done it on purpose!

Hua Gengchen found Hua Jueming and told him what had happened. Hua Jueming's face fell. "Master, didn't you manage to keep the... Madam?" Hua Gengchen had just said that from now on, Su Bai should be called "Madam" instead of "Mistress".

After being addressed as Madam by Hua Jueming and the others, Hua Gengchen wondered what new way to address Su Bai he should use.

The title must reflect their extremely close relationship, highlight his unique identity, and ideally also demonstrate his possessiveness towards Su Bai.

Hua Gengchen glanced at Hua Jueming indifferently, "Su Bai is mine, and always will be!" Trying to run? There's no way out, not even a crack!

“But everything has to be returned…” In Hua Jueming’s eyes, this was a very obvious signal of rejection. Thinking back to when Su Bai was still going through a divorce with Hua Gengchen, Hua Jueming could easily imagine all sorts of bad outcomes.

"Fine, I'll back out!" Hua Gengchen said nonchalantly. "I can give Su Bai even better things in the future!" What should he call Su Bai? Calling him "wife" would make Su Bai furious, and calling him "madam" wouldn't highlight his status enough. "Hua Jueming, how do people usually address their other half?"

Hua Gengchen couldn't think of a good title, so he asked Hua Jueming for help. Hua Jueming was an all-around housekeeper, and such a small matter was absolutely a piece of cake for him.

Hua Jueming did not doubt the truth of what Hua Gengchen said, after all, his master had a small treasury with a full hundred warehouses, each one bigger than anyone could imagine!

"There are many ways for people to address their partner. In ancient times, they were generally called 'Madam' or 'My Nei Ren'. In modern times, they are called 'Wife' or 'Sister'. Some people also call their child's mother or 'Baby'. However, many people still like to call their wife 'Daughter-in-law'."

"Wife?!" Hua Gengchen didn't hear anything else, only the last word, which he pondered over several times. "Wife! That's a good word!"

It not only shows the unique relationship and intimacy between him and Su Bai, but also expresses his possessiveness!

Because this title is unique, only he can use it, no one else has the right to use it!

"It's decided, from now on I'll call Su Bai my wife!" Hua Gengchen was very satisfied with this title, calling her that several times in a row, feeling that the more he said it, the smoother it sounded, and that it was exceptionally pleasant to hear.

Hua Jueming is indeed an all-around housekeeper!

"As long as Master is happy!" Hua Jueming also thought this title was good. It would let those who wanted to steal Master's wife see just how good the relationship between his master and his wife really was! "Master, then I'll go do my work first!" Thinking of those who wanted to steal Master's wife, Hua Jueming remembered that he still needed to deliver dinner to Wang Ming. However, Hua Gengchen had just given him some instructions, so he had to hurry up and do them, otherwise he would be late in delivering dinner to Wang Ming.

"Go ahead, go ahead!" Hua Gengchen waved his hand generously. Hua Jueming nodded slightly and turned to leave, but Hua Gengchen stopped him again. "Hurry up and get the investigation into Su Bai's information done!" Hua Gengchen couldn't wait to know exactly how Su Bai had been hurt. Only by knowing the details could he prescribe the right remedy!

He wanted to cut off all of Su Bai's escape routes. Su Bai was his, and could only be his!

"Yes, master."

After Hua Jueming left, Hua Gengchen went to the sofa in the living room and sat down in the spot where he could see the room on the second floor. Su Bai was now determined to divorce him, so he had to think of a way to buy some time and let Su Bai see his true feelings!

But how can we buy time? Su Bai is not someone who can be easily fooled!

Hua Gengchen fell into deep thought; this was a very thought-provoking question.

In the bedroom on the second floor, Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief after returning to his room. He briefly recalled what he had said to Hua Gengchen. He thought he hadn't let anything slip, and his meaning was clear enough. Even if Hua Gengchen only had an elementary school education, he could understand what he meant, right?

After thinking it over twice, Su Bai was certain that what he said was indeed very clear. Anyone would know that choosing him was worse than backing down early, and wasting time and energy on him was a complete waste.

He really doesn't deserve it!

Su Bai forced himself to ignore the throbbing pain in his heart. Right now, it was only a little bit of pain, but if it continued like this, the pain would be much more than just a little bit.

Su Bai stayed in the room until dinner time before coming downstairs. When he went downstairs, he found that the things piled up in the living room had been cleared away. Looking through the window, he saw that the trucks parked outside the door had also disappeared. Su Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Hua Gengchen and Bai Ze were already seated. Su Bai quickened her pace and walked over, her heart pounding with anxiety.

After they sat down, Hua Gengchen ordered the dishes to be served. Bai Ze hadn't had a hot and fragrant meal for several days, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating as soon as the dishes were served, followed by Hua Gengchen.

Seeing that Hua Gengchen wasn't going to do anything unusual, Su Bai's heart settled back down, and he ate his meal in silence with his head down. He hoped that this time Hua Gengchen would think things through and sever ties with him as soon as possible.

Although Hua Gengchen forced himself not to look at Su Bai, he kept glancing at her out of the corner of his eye. He saw Su Bai eating with little appetite, her eyes downcast, and her mood not very high. A smile flashed across his eyes.

Su Bai might be even more attracted to him than he said!

However, Su Bai faced a huge obstacle in his heart. His emotions and reason were constantly at odds, and unfortunately, reason had been winning out recently.

Hua Gengchen took a vicious bite of a piece of meat, thinking to himself: I must never let him know who the guy who hurt Su Bai is.

Otherwise, he might just grind him to dust!

After the meal, Hua Gengchen went to his study to handle some matters instead of staying with Su Bai, which relieved Su Bai. It seemed that Hua Gengchen had taken his words to heart. Now, he just needed to give Hua Gengchen time to think things through.

Any businessman would weigh gains and losses. To be with him, Hua Gengchen would have to give up much more than finding someone else. Therefore, Su Bai was certain that Hua Gengchen would make the right choice.

After Hua Gengchen left, Su Bai felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she planned to stay in the living room for a while until her stomach felt better before going back to her room to sleep.

After sitting for a while, Su Bai still felt bloated in his stomach, even though he hadn't eaten much for dinner. He asked the maid to bring him some digestive tablets, and he first broke two into his mouth and chewed them. After he finished chewing the ones in his mouth, he broke two more into his mouth. "Bai Ze, would you like some?" He remembered that Bai Ze had eaten a lot of food for dinner and might need some.

Unexpectedly, Bai Ze, who was lying on the opposite sofa, shook his head like a rattle drum, "I've only eaten seven-tenths full, I don't need this." If it weren't for the fact that eating seven-tenths full at night is good for health, he would definitely have eaten to his heart's content.

But there's no rush. Eat well in the morning, eat your fill at noon, and eat lightly in the evening. He can stay at the Hua family's house for a few more days and have the chance to have a hearty meal.

Upon hearing this, Su Bai silently swallowed, awkwardly withdrawing his hand, but his gaze couldn't help but linger on Bai Ze's stomach. How could he only be seven-tenths full after eating so much?! Could it be that Bai Ze has two stomachs?

"Hey! I have a question I want to ask you!" Bai Ze suddenly remembered something and jumped up from the sofa, sitting down enthusiastically next to Su Bai. Before Su Bai could speak, he gossiped, "Do you know how Hua Gengchen became enlightened? What exactly happened between you and him?"

Su Bai: "..."

"Tell me! I always thought Hua Gengchen's millennia-old ice had no chance of melting, but who knew he would quietly have a breakthrough. I've never figured this out, and Hua Gengchen won't tell me, making me so itchy to know. Little Su Bai, please, tell me!" Bai Ze's face and eyes clearly showed his desire for gossip, making it impossible to ignore!

Su Bai chuckled awkwardly, "I don't know either!"

Bai Ze's expression changed instantly, pouting unhappily, "Little Su Bai, if you don't want to tell me, fine, but you've come up with such a lame excuse." Su Bai is the person involved; if Su Bai doesn't know, who does?

Oh, and that scoundrel Hua Gengchen knows too!

But Hua Gengchen would never tell him; if Hua Gengchen were willing to tell him, he would have already done so.

"I really don't know!" Su Bai said helplessly. He didn't know how Hua Gengchen suddenly became so enlightened, catching him completely off guard!

Bai Ze looked at Su Bai suspiciously. He was certain from Su Bai's eyes that what Su Bai said was true. But Su Bai was the person involved. Even the person involved didn't know how Hua Gengchen had become enlightened. So how did Hua Gengchen become enlightened?

Could it be that I suddenly had a flash of insight and understood?
