Lin Chen didn't say much when he saw her like this, he just turned around and walked outside.

She followed behind, hesitating for a long time. "Our daughter, is she beautiful?"

"Very beautiful, just like you, pure and white." Lin Chen smiled.

Whenever he mentioned their daughter, his eyes were always gentle.

Listening to Lin Chen's tone, she knew that he truly loved and cared for this child.

Her lips curled up slightly. "To have a father like you is a blessing for the child."

"It is my blessing to have this child. Zhou Yun'er, every step you took was a mistake, but it had nothing to do with the child. So don't blame others or blame me." Lin Chen opened the door to the firewood room. "Go, be with the person you care about the most, enjoy this last night."

Zhou Yun'er stood at the door, looking at the man curled up in the corner against the light.

She couldn't believe that she had ended up like this because of this person.

Step by step, she walked towards him, standing in front of him.

She squatted down, looking at him curiously. "Lu Qiu, have you ever loved me?"

Indeed, in the mind of a person in love, there are only two things: love or not.

Lin Chen sighed and turned to leave.

He really didn't want to witness the melodrama that would unfold next.

"I gave you everything, the family, the honor, the spiritual roots, the spiritual veins, even my dignity and our daughter. I was willing to give up everything. But why did you treat me like this? If you were deceiving me from the beginning, why didn't you continue deceiving me? Why, at the end, did you have to tell the truth? Don't you think you're cruel?" Zhou Yun'er squatted down, looking into his eyes.

The affectionate gaze that used to be in his eyes had disappeared, leaving only endless disgust and coldness.

Lu Qiu looked at her in her crazed state and felt a sense of irony. "I finally managed to survive and come back to find you, but where were you? What were you doing? You betrayed me first, didn't you?"

"Yes, I betrayed you first. It was my fault, all my fault. But whether we love each other or not, we are going on this road together. On the road to the underworld, we won't be lonely anymore." Zhou Yun'er chuckled lightly and leaned against him.

Just as Lin Chen had said, they only had this last night.

Late at night.

All the major immortal sects had already arrived in Maple City, so naturally it was bustling.

Since the last incident, Qing Yao had been thinking about Lin Chen. She hadn't met such an interesting man in many years, so as soon as she arrived in Maple City, she couldn't wait to visit him.

When Lin Chen, who was lying in Zhou Zhuqing's arms, heard the report from the person outside, he sat up and asked, "Who did you say?"

"Fairy Qing Yao, she's outside the door right now." The person outside said again.

What was she doing here in the middle of the night?

Lin Chen quickly put on his clothes and wrapped Zhou Zhuqing in a blanket. "I'll be right back."

"Okay." Zhou Zhuqing nodded and watched him leave.

When Lin Chen saw Qing Yao, he was speechless.

In the middle of the night, dressed in a white robe, one would think that the Lin family was haunted.

He suppressed the urge to roll his eyes.

He coughed. "Fairy Qing Yao, what brings you here so late at night?"

"I just arrived and missed you, so I came to see you." Qing Yao smiled. "I've come a long way, all dusty. You wouldn't make me stand outside and talk, would you?"

Lin Chen felt a chill, but he still politely smiled. "Please come in."

"It seems like you're not very happy to see me." Qing Yao looked at his forced smile, clearly displeased.

No kidding.

Lin Chen rolled his eyes, not even bothering to greet her in the middle of the night, suddenly showing up like this.

After she arrived, she started saying all these strange things. Who would welcome that?

"I heard along the way that there's an alchemist in your mansion, and you have your own unique style. I also heard that there are dozens of women in your courtyard who practice spiritual cultivation every night. Is that true?" Qing Yao looked at him curiously.

Um...

Lin Chen felt like he couldn't answer this question.

So he chose the most direct way, which was to stay silent.

Silence was the best answer.

Qing Yao didn't get the answer she wanted and seemed a bit unwilling.

She stopped and tilted her head, looking at Lin Chen. "What, am I wrong?"

"Fairy Qing Yao, these are all rumors from outside," Lin Chen replied patiently.

He really didn't understand why this woman came to find him in the middle of the night.

Seeing his impatience, Qing Yao laughed. "So, is the nightly spiritual cultivation true or false?"

As she spoke, she approached him, her eyes greedily scanning Lin Chen.

For a moment, Lin Chen felt like he was being undressed by someone. It was quite a strange feeling for a grown man.

He took a deep breath and stepped back. "Please have some self-restraint."

"Self-restraint? Hahaha, it's quite amusing to hear such words from a promiscuous person like you," Qing Yao laughed heartily.

She looked at Lin Chen's blushing face and found it amusing.

"If I didn't know that you're already the father of over a dozen children, I would have thought you were just a naive little boy! Hahaha!" Qing Yao covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

It was already late at night, and her commotion in the courtyard quickly woke others up.

Seeing the lights turning on in the courtyard, Lin Chen felt that this woman was here to cause trouble.

The people in the Lin Mansion were very well-mannered, so even if the lights were on, they wouldn't come out.

But Luo Yunli and Yu Chan still came out.

When they saw Qing Yao laughing heartily, their expressions were quite interesting.

"Oh? You're here too? Haha, it seems like the Lin Mansion has truly become a Grotto-Heaven!" Qing Yao sarcastically remarked.

Upon seeing Qing Yao, Yu Chan's fighting spirit awakened, as if she were facing off against a rooster.

She charged over aggressively. "Qing Yao, are you crazy? What are you barking about in the middle of the night? Look at your attire, a white dress in the middle of the night. Those who know you're a fairy descending to the mortal realm, and those who don't would think the Lin Mansion is haunted!"

"Yu Chan! What did you say?" Qing Yao couldn't stand it. "Don't think you're so great just because you're a junior elder of the Eternal Immortal Sect!"

Yu Chan snorted. "I'm nothing special, but I am an elder. Even if you're not in the Eternal Immortal Sect, you still have to show respect to me. But now, you're yelling and screaming in front of me. Does the Jade Immortal Sect have no one to teach you manners?"

Luo Yunli had a headache.

One Yu Chan was already troublesome enough, and now there was Qing Yao.

These two people together were even noisier than five hundred ducks.

Even the dogs that Lin Chen raised woke up and barked incessantly.

"Grandmas, I beg you, please stop yelling, okay?" Lin Chen had a headache.

He looked at the two people who were at odds with each other and coughed. "There are many children and pregnant women in my courtyard. They really can't handle your yelling. How about we go to the study and talk? It's soundproofed over there."

"Hmph, uncultured thing. You yell and scream wherever you go, disturbing other people's rest," Yu Chan disdainfully snorted and walked towards the study first. She hadn't fully expressed herself yet, so this matter couldn't be left like this.
