God of Pets-Chapter 450: Living in the Sunlight

It is indeed beautiful, truly beautiful, but as for being stunning, Chen Guan didn’t really feel that way; he only thought it was very beautiful and lovely.

Perhaps it’s because Ming Fei naturally exudes a charm, Chen Guan, who has practiced dual cultivation with Ming Fei, was already used to it; no matter how beautiful a woman is, it’s hard for him to feel stunned.

Fujimura Reiko’s face changed, seeming both happy and worried. She reached out to touch her face, but seemed afraid to break something, and her fingers dared not truly touch her face.

Chen Guan handed a mirror to Fujimura Reiko. She took the mirror, squeezing it tightly but without immediately looking at her face.

"Take a look," Chen Guan encouraged with a smile.

Fujimura Reiko seemed to be greatly encouraged by this and took up the mirror to look at her face.

When she saw the face in the mirror, white with a rosy hue, elegant yet beautiful, she almost broke down in tears.

She finally found her former self again, even if just for a brief moment, it was enough to make her cry tears of joy.

"Thank you," Fujimura Reiko said, not caring whether the effect would last or if the bone-eroding toxin would recur; at least at this moment, she finally escaped the nightmares of these years.

"Have you considered the thing I mentioned?" Chen Guan seized the moment, hoping to persuade Fujimura Reiko.

Upon hearing this, Fujimura Reiko glanced at herself in the mirror, gently wiping away the specks of soot on her face, tidied her clothes, and then put down the mirror to look at Chen Guan, saying, "I don’t know how long this appearance can last. If you want to do something, then it’s now."

Saying this, Fujimura Reiko closed her eyes.

Chen Guan looked at Fujimura Reiko blankly, knowing she misunderstood, but that wasn’t his intention.

Seeing Fujimura Reiko’s stubborn face with her eyes closed, Chen Guan thought for a moment and then walked up to her.

Fujimura Reiko heard Chen Guan’s footsteps and felt him approach. As if sensing the warm aura and masculinity from Chen Guan, her heart began to beat faster, like a drum.

Although she did not reject him in her heart, after all, she had just met Chen Guan and knew nothing of his background or who he was.

This unfamiliar yet thrilling experience made Fujimura Reiko feel a little panicked but also vaguely excited and expectant.

Feeling her body embraced by those strong arms, Fujimura Reiko’s entire body stiffened for a moment, then softened completely, inhaling the masculine scent, as if she had lost all her strength, almost unable to stand on her own, relying solely on those strong arms.

"Being able to embrace the most beautiful flower of the Celestial Court, this wish is enough; my life is complete," Chen Guan said as he let go of Fujimura Reiko.

Fujimura Reiko opened her eyes, staring blankly at Chen Guan, not knowing what he meant by this, with a hint of anger in her heart.

At such a time, for a man to say such words to a woman, without any actual action, was undoubtedly an insult.

"Do you like growing flowers?" Chen Guan asked with a smile.

"I don’t like it," Fujimura Reiko replied coldly.

Chen Guan didn’t mind and still smiled as he said, "I like growing flowers. There is much joy in growing flowers. Being able to nurture a pot of beautiful and exquisite flowers is an enormous pleasure."

"Once, I had a very precious flower. I liked it very, very much, but the flower was too delicate; it was hard to keep alive. Not long after I planted it, it became weak and spiritless, its leaves almost wilting, and I felt very distressed at the time."

"Later, I kept researching various materials, trying every way possible to nurture it back to health. It grew better and better, even bloomed, and the flowers became more and more vibrant, truly becoming just as I imagined. That was my happiest time."

As Chen Guan spoke, his gaze became so gentle as if it could melt, "I also like beautiful women, especially those who are both beautiful and unique, just like you."

Fujimura Reiko’s gaze softened, as she looked at Chen Guan.

"A flower lover would not pluck their favorite flower because a plucked flower quickly withers. Let her grow on the branch, watch her lush blooms, see her summer splendor, watch her bloom freely, see her astound the world..."

Chen Guan looked at Fujimura Reiko and said in a voice gentle to the extreme, "Your beauty, half of which is your appearance, and the other half is yet to bloom. The Fujimura Reiko I want to see is both beautiful and strong, unparalleled in beauty, astounding the world as the most beautiful flower of the Celestial Court. I want to see you bloom spectacularly once again, flourish again. Your beauty can shine in the sunlight, not fade silently in a secluded place..."

Fujimura Reiko’s beautiful eyes grew brighter, her gaze at Chen Guan became more and more dreamy.

She originally thought Chen Guan was just a man coveting her beauty and fame. Even so, she didn’t reject such a man as Chen Guan.

But she didn’t expect Chen Guan to be someone who appreciated not only her appearance but also understood her heart.

Yes, she was Fujimura Reiko. She never cared about her looks in the past, focusing only on using her abilities to carve out a world of her own.

Yet, after these years of hardship, she almost forgot her pride; her edges had nearly been smoothed away.

But today, a man told her that she was more than just a pretty face.

Fujimura Reiko had no doubt these were just empty words because, to Chen Guan, she was a flower he could pluck with ease.

This kind of person, at a time like this, saying such words to her, made Fujimura Reiko feel that Chen Guan was sincere and truly understood her.

At this moment, Fujimura Reiko felt that even if she lost her current beauty, it would not be regrettable if she had a soulmate in life.

Chen Guan knew that if he wanted to leverage the power of Fujimura Reiko and Lian Sanshan, he couldn’t touch Fujimura Reiko. Otherwise, if things got tangled, it might become troublesome.

Besides, Chen Guan truly had no ulterior motives toward Fujimura Reiko, especially in such a cursed place.

"If you are willing, I can take you back to the sunlight, and you can become the best version of yourself," Chen Guan said sincerely, looking at Fujimura Reiko.

"Okay," Fujimura Reiko nodded heavily.

Chen Guan quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The next step was figuring out how to bring Fujimura Reiko back from the Eight Kings.

It’s a death contract in someone’s hands, and the hurdle of the Eight Kings isn’t easy to pass.

With pride rekindled, Fujimura Reiko was visibly more proactive, practicing her techniques in preparation for the upcoming battle with Shang Qingtian.

Though Red Dust Palm is powerful, that Passionate Hand also has the fame of Three Awakenings Invincible among techniques. Fujimura Reiko previously thought that if the Eight Kings said she could win, then she could win.

It’s not to say that she was blindly confident, but at that time, Fujimura Reiko had no life goals, living like a walking dead, not wanting to think much about anything, feeling it was meaningless.

But now, it’s different. Fujimura Reiko has regained hope in life. Even if she loses her looks again, she doesn’t want to live like this anymore. She wants to find herself and live back in the sunlight.
