Why Are All the Fairies Trying To Make Me Fall

Chapter 36

“According to the teacher, that egg can hatch a divine beast, probably a phoenix.” Lin Que explained.

“A phoenix?!”

Hearing this shocking news, not only Qin Wanyuan but even Qin Qian’er, who was pretending to eat seriously, couldn’t help but be surprised.

They had only seen textual descriptions of such divine beasts as phoenixes in the “Shan Hai Jing,” and now there was a living phoenix egg in their home.

After a brief shock, Qin Wanyuan said solemnly, “Lin Lang, this matter must not be known to outsiders.”

“Yes, I understand this principle.” Lin Que certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to brag about having a phoenix egg.

Although he had some strength, if he encountered a powerful person coveting the phoenix egg, he would probably be helpless.

Although he was aggressive when he went to the monster forest that day, he was low-key on the way back. Moreover, Zuiyu Peak only had Lin Que, An Xiaoyao, and a few others, along with the protective formation, so there was no need to worry.

By the way, Zuiyu Peak was the only place in the entire Wenjian Sect with an expensive defensive formation, naturally because of the attack Lin Que encountered when he was eighteen, which An Xiaoyao specially set up.

After the meal, Qin Qian’er rarely took the initiative to talk to Lin Que, “Can I… go to your room to see that phoenix egg?”

“No problem.” Lin Que didn’t mind.

The three of them returned to the room together. Qin Qian’er squatted in front of the huge egg, staring at the shining patterns, almost without blinking.

“What a majestic spiritual energy, and the patterns on it are so exquisite that they seem to be drawn by a great master rather than naturally formed…”

Qin Qian’er practiced the Dao of perceiving all things in heaven and earth, and observing the divine beast egg up close could indeed benefit her greatly.

“If you like it, you can take it back to your room to study more.” Lin Que said to Qin Qian’er.

After all, the divine beast egg was still far from hatching, and it would be best if it could be used to improve his relationship with Qin Qian’er.

Hearing this, Qin Qian’er’s face showed a bit of joy, but she quickly shook her head.

“No, I’m not that shameless.”

Qin Qian’er was somewhat aware of her previous actions. If everything before was a misunderstanding, the hurtful words she said to Lin Que were simply an undeserved disaster for him.

He was kind enough to repay evil with good, but she absolutely couldn’t take advantage of it.

Qin Qian’er also had her own dignity.

Seeing this, Lin Que did not insist, “If you want to observe, you can come and watch anytime.”

“Mm, thank you… brother-in-law.”

Leaving these words, Qin Qian’er quickly walked away.

“Lin Lang is really gentle~”

Watching her sister leave, Qin Wanyuan no longer hid her feelings and directly hugged Lin Que’s strong arm.

In her previous life, besides Lin Que’s death, her biggest regret was probably not being able to see Qin Qian’er reconcile with Lin Que.

Now, having lived another life, everything had changed. Lin Que and Qin Qian’er had finally reconciled, which was also a relief for her.

However, Lin Que’s affection for Qin Qian’er was not high, just out of the realm of indifference, still below the level of friends.

It would be great if they could get closer, after all, a harmonious family prospers!

Qin Wanyuan couldn’t help but think to herself.

As the sunset gradually faded and the last rays of twilight fell before nightfall, Lin Que suddenly turned around, scratched his chin, and looked at Qin Wanyuan with a somewhat subtle expression.

“Wanyuan, there’s something I want to ask you.”

“Mm, Lin Lang, go ahead.”

“Do you like children?”

“……”

Hearing this question, Qin Wanyuan was stunned for a moment. She blinked and said blankly, “Lin Lang, can you say that again?”

“Do you like children?”

“Eh?”

Hearing this again, Qin Wanyuan’s whole body stiffened, her originally slightly flushed face instantly turned bright red, her pearly teeth lightly biting her cherry-red lips, letting out a shy moan.

This question, Lin Lang had never asked in her previous life!

Qin Wanyuan was a bit flustered, losing her composure. Although Lin Que’s question was somewhat ambiguous, there was no doubt that… he wanted a child!

Although extremely shy inside, Qin Wanyuan still whispered:

“If Lin Lang likes it, I will try my best…”

“Huh?” Now it was Lin Que’s turn to be stunned. However, after spending so much time together, he quickly realized that his words were ambiguous, causing Qin Wanyuan to misunderstand.

“Actually, I wasn’t talking about our child, but… this.”

As he spoke, Lin Que pointed to the phoenix egg and explained to Qin Wanyuan.

“Oh, oh, oh, so that’s what it is. I thought…”

I thought you were going to say you didn’t want to have children with me.

Due to the recent tasks from the system, Qin Wanyuan subconsciously started to think pessimistically. When she heard Lin Que say it wasn’t their child, her first reaction was that Lin Que disliked her for being too incompetent, so he wanted to have a child with Jiang Moqing and bring it back to raise.

Realizing she was a big fool, Qin Wanyuan’s face turned even redder.

However, although the previous thought was somewhat absurd, a sense of crisis did arise in Qin Wanyuan’s heart.

After binding with the system that night, Qin Wanyuan naturally made up for her knowledge in that area and realized how inadequate she was.

If things continued like this, she might not be able to satisfy Lin Que, let alone have a child with him.

Fortunately, the wise have their ways. Qin Wanyuan couldn’t just sit and wait for death. For these two tasks, the system had given her two bottles of endurance potion.

Qin Wanyuan hadn’t forgotten about the existence of those two bottles of potion, but she was planning to stock up a few more bottles before using them. However, Lin Que’s words just now made her unable to care about that anymore.

At this moment, Qin Wanyuan’s heart was in turmoil, while in Lin Que’s eyes, she was just slightly distracted, sometimes downcast, sometimes excited.

He also understood that his ambiguous words might have made Qin Wanyuan a bit sad, so he added, “Of course, Wanyuan, if you want a child, I can also…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Wanyuan stood on tiptoe and blocked Lin Que’s mouth with her cherry-red lips.

After their lips parted, the blushing woman smiled at him.

At this moment, it seemed that any words were unnecessary. She had already expressed her feelings through her actions, and Lin Que would naturally accompany her to the end.

The night passed without a word.
