Chapter 122: Chapter 99: Chu Xuan, Come Back with Me

Chu Xuan showed a puzzled expression, and Haitang finally smiled and withdrew her hand, "Don’t you think calling me this way is too formal?"

"Call me Haitang."

Chu Xuan chuckled a bit, "If I call you Haitang, then what should you call me? ’Xuan’?"

"You can call me Axuan, or... Chu Lang."

Gu Haitang propped her chin with one hand, the corners of her mouth slightly curved in a small arc, as if "retaliating" for Chu Xuan’s teasing during the day, now teasing him in return.

But for some reason, her ears were slightly red.

Gu Haitang said to herself in her heart:

I’m doing this just to lower Chu Xuan’s guard, to get closer to him, know his secrets, and complete the task assigned by my family.

But when those last two words really came out, for some reason, there was a bit of shame, and Haitang could only forcibly hold back, pretending to be indifferent.

Chu Xuan naturally took in the whole scene, he sighed, "Haitang, you don’t have the talent to tease others."

"The most important thing about doing this is thick skin; you tease others but end up shy yourself, how is that different from being teased by me?"

Gu Haitang couldn’t maintain the facade any longer, she slapped the table, feigning anger, "Stop talking nonsense, who’s shy?"

"Okay, okay, I’m talking nonsense." Chu Xuan raised his hands in surrender.

However, hearing Chu Xuan change his tone, Gu Haitang was quite satisfied, "Let’s continue with the initial topic, what happened two years ago?"

"At that time, you said you didn’t like me... is it still the same now?" Chu Xuan asked cautiously.

Haitang nodded.

This made Chu Xuan even more puzzled, "Then why bother arguing with Qingqing?"

Gu Haitang shook her head, "Did you forget the latter part of what I said?"

"Also right, at that time you were completely focused on your senior sister, ran off without hearing me out, how could you remember clearly?"

Chu Xuan was a bit embarrassed, "My mistake, my mistake, it was because my senior sister returned safely, I was too excited, it wasn’t intentional neglect of you."

Gu Haitang didn’t dwell on this point, only said, "Since that’s the case, I’ll finish the unfinished words from those years for you."

Chu Xuan immediately posed with a listening attentively gesture.

"Although I haven’t liked you yet, after observing these days, I think you still have a lot of potential, so I hope you can grow."

"At that time, the so-called ’marriage alliance’ is not impossible." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Now, do you understand my mindset?"

Chu Xuan rubbed his nose, "In other words, you see me as a fish in your pond, right?"

"So you won’t allow other women to catch me first."

"Ah, your analogy is really fitting~" Gu Haitang clapped her hands, smiling.

"Of course, you are more noble than fish."

"And currently, I only keep you as a fish, so I’m a devoted owner, right?"

Goodness, already starting to act like an "owner," what’s next, trying to train me, Chu Xuan muttered in his heart.

"Why aren’t you speaking?" Gu Haitang waved her small hand in front of Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan thought for a moment, "What if I don’t end up liking you?"

Haitang replied seriously, "I’ll work hard, I believe I won’t lose to any woman."

"What if you ultimately don’t like me, just stay in the fish-raising phase?"

"I wouldn’t keep myself celibate for you." Chu Xuan joked.

Gu Haitang frankly said, "I won’t demand that, and as long as you are excellent enough, I will eventually like you."

"Lastly, don’t forget, I am the Chaos Holy Seed, you are the Innate Dao Body, if we combine, it fully aligns with the interests of both sects, the elders will definitely support."

Speaking of this, Chu Xuan felt guilty, I’m really not the Innate Dao Body!

Forget it, forget it, he pretty much understood Gu Haitang’s thoughts.

It seems her approach to him had no sinister motives, possibly due to guidance from elders behind her, making it seem deliberate, but Chu Xuan could at least confirm one thing:

Haitang had no ill intentions towards him.

...

And so, Gu Haitang chatted with Chu Xuan for a long time, as if intending to chat all night, not giving Qingqing any chance.

With no choice, Chu Xuan had to voluntarily escort the guest out.

Fortunately, as a well-cultivated young lady from a prestigious sect, Gu Haitang wasn’t that thick-skinned, as soon as Chu Xuan requested, she bid farewell and left.

Chu Xuan originally thought Qingqing would rush over to find him, maybe even question him.

But after waiting for a while, this Demoness just didn’t come?

This made Chu Xuan start to doubt if he was being too narcissistic?

Then he suddenly remembered that Qingqing mentioned going to chat with Haitang, but what would they talk about? Don’t let them fight, right?

...

Just when nearing the room, Gu Haitang furrowed her brow slightly, turned around, and looked at Qingqing who had been following her all the way.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"Oh, the tone has gotten so cold, it seems that guy Chu Xuan has already told you everything." Qingqing casually folded her hands behind her back, with a confident smile on her face.

"Let’s have a talk, about Chu Xuan."

Gu Haitang didn’t want too much involvement with this Demoness, but concerning Chu Xuan, she hesitated for a moment, then let Qingqing follow her into the room.

"Do you like Chu Xuan?"

As soon as Qingqing entered, before she could speak, Gu Haitang coldly looked at her and asked.

"Haha, only fools would like him, but you, you like him, right?" Qingqing’s expression was somewhat playful.
