Chapter 32: Birth

Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen?

Oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus?

Sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium?

Wen Zhiyun couldn't understand, but was greatly shocked.

Such profound and mysterious incantations.

I completely can't comprehend it.

But he can use it directly.

It seems that although his cultivation is low, he is gifted in certain aspects.

Especially in matters of intimacy...

Thinking of this, Wen Zhiyun's face, that of a young married woman, couldn't help but blush.

At this moment, her view of Chen An had greatly changed.

From the initial "low cultivation, extremely poor character, extreme dislike towards him" to now "outstanding appearance, talented, some fondness towards him."

This was a feeling she had never experienced before.

She never thought that she would develop a fondness for a man, finding it unbelievable.

Unbelievable to the point that even the intimate matters she used to detest, she now found herself looking forward to.

"Fellow Daoist Wen, I have already told you the incantation for this spell. Now it's my turn to ask you a question, and you must answer truthfully."

Chen An said to Wen Zhiyun.

Wen Zhiyun crossed her arms and said, "Ask away. I always do what I say, and I will truthfully answer any question I can, without any falsehood."

Chen An didn't waste any words and directly asked her, "Fellow Daoist Wen, why do you dislike men so much?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhiyun's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"I won't answer this question, ask another one."

"I thought Fellow Daoist Wen had principles, but it turns out you're just someone who doesn't keep their word."

Chen An deliberately provoked her.

Wen Zhiyun knew that Chen An was deliberately provoking her, but she fell for it anyway.

"Because my father was a gambler and used to physically abuse me and my mother when I was young!"

"When I was ten years old and grew up to be beautiful, my mother, who still had her charm, sold us to a brothel for money!"

"Now that you know all these ugly things, are you satisfied?"

"None of you men are good people!"

After speaking of these difficult-to-mention past events and angrily cursing, Wen Zhiyun turned and walked away, quickly returning to her dilapidated house with fallen beams and forcefully slamming the door shut with a loud bang.

"Husband, I'll go comfort Sister Wen."

After saying that, Song Huaying, with her big belly, walked towards Wen Zhiyun's house.

Seeing this, Chen An said to Gu Xinyue, who had been silent beside him, "Yue'er, you go with Ying'er to take care of her."

"Yes, I understand, husband."

Gu Xinyue obediently replied, and then quickly caught up with Song Huaying, following her to take care of this pregnant sister who had been carrying a child for nine months.

Looking at the figure of his wives going to persuade her, and thinking back to Wen Zhiyun's angry departure just now, Chen An's heart remained unaffected.

Angry?

It's okay.

Anger will dissipate.

Now that he understood why Wen Zhiyun disliked men, it would be easier to handle in the future.

However...

Wen Zhiyun was actually sold to a brothel by her own father?

How did she manage to protect her virginity?

Chen An was a bit puzzled, but quickly remembered some things Song Huaying had mentioned before.

She said that Wen Zhiyun's mother was a midwife.

So...

It should be that this unfortunate mother and daughter managed to escape from the brothel, went to a strange place, and relied on midwifery to make a living and survive.

Chen An just thought about it for a moment and didn't pay too much attention to Wen Zhiyun's background.

He looked at the ruins of the house in front of him and muttered to himself:

"It seems like I need to rent a new house."

Stopping in front of Wen Zhiyun's door, he informed his wives that he was going to rent a house.

Then, Chen An went to the Law Enforcement Hall and found the elder in charge, registered, and received six months of rent exemption.

Yes, he didn't discuss the allocation with Wen Zhiyun and just took it all for himself.

Because he had the idea of sharing the rent with Wen Zhiyun.

It would save money and they would grow closer over time.

With this six-month rent exemption, Chen An quickly went to the place specifically responsible for renting houses.

He rented a new house near his own.

The residential area was the same size as before.

It's just that the location is not as remote, and there are many more neighbors around.

The housing problem has been resolved.

Chen An went to the market and bought a bunch of furniture and daily necessities.

Afterwards, he called his wife and concubines back home, and the three of them decorated the house together.

It took them more than an hour.

The house was well decorated.

To celebrate moving into the new house, Chen An personally cooked a table full of dishes for supper.

The dishes were very sumptuous.

Eight dishes and one soup, with beautiful colors and fragrant aroma.

Even Gu Xinyue, who usually wasn't interested in food, couldn't help but salivate when she saw it.

Three people made eight dishes...

Song Huaying saw through her husband's thoughts and suggested:

"Husband, there are too many dishes. The three of us can't finish them. Why don't I invite Wen Jiejie to join us?"

"Well, let Yue'er accompany you."

Chen An replied lightly, and his affection for his perceptive and observant little wife grew even stronger.

...

After half an hour.

At Song Huaying's enthusiastic invitation,

Wen Zhiyun reluctantly entered the house and sat down at the dining table.

She happened to sit opposite Chen An, whether it was intentional or not.

Chen An ignored her, treating her as if she didn't exist, and only interacted with his wife and concubines.

When they were halfway through supper, Song Huaying suddenly proposed:

"Husband, Wen Jiejie, why don't our two families share the rent? We can save a lot of spiritual stones every month."

This proposal was not made by Song Huaying on her own.

It was agreed upon in advance by her husband, as a way to assist him in accepting Wen Zhiyun as a concubine.

Chen An shook his head and said, "No, I don't want to live under the same roof as her."

Hmm, the trap is set.

Retreating to advance, luring the enemy deeper.

Wen Zhiyun fell into the trap as expected and immediately glared at Chen An, saying:

"I want my share of the six months' rent-free reward. This house is not entirely yours. I'm going to live here, what can you do about it?"

"I don't mind, as long as you don't mind the noise when you sleep at night."

Chen An put down his chopsticks and took Gu Xinyue's hand, walking towards the room. "Let's go, Yue'er, let's have a deep conversation in the room."

"Okay."

Gu Xinyue obediently got up and followed him to the room.

Wen Zhiyun was furious, "Do whatever you want at night. I won't sleep a wink, not a single night, but I'm still going to live here!"

She thought she could disgust Chen An, but little did she know that she was being used and helping someone else count money.

...

After the two families started sharing the rent,

Not much changed in their daily lives.

Everyone mostly kept to themselves.

Wen Zhiyun stayed in her room practicing cultivation all day.

She cooked her own meals and didn't eat with Chen An and his wife and concubines at the same table.

Chen An didn't rush to scheme against her.

When he wasn't refining pills in the alchemy room, he was in his room enjoying intimate moments with his wife and concubines.

He knew very well that he couldn't rush when dealing with a woman like Wen Zhiyun, who had a proud and stubborn personality. The more he rushed, the more stubborn she would become.

The best way was to show affection in front of her and let her see but not have it.

Let her slowly develop feelings of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

By then, even if he didn't set a trap, she would bring one herself and ask to be accepted.

Hmm, it's all about playing hard to get.

...

Time passed day by day.

Today is the day when Song Huaying has been pregnant for nine and a half months.

Chen An was refining pills in the alchemy room when he suddenly heard Gu Xinyue's anxious voice from outside:

"Husband!"

"Ying'er's water broke, she's going into labor!"

"Wen Jiejie has already gone into the room to deliver the baby, hurry up and come out!"

What, my little wife is going into labor?

As soon as he heard the news, Chen An abandoned the half-finished pill and immediately got up, rushing towards Song Huaying's room.
