Chapter 1445: Chapter 1404: Going Out for Some Fresh Air

“This luck is really something… But at least it’s good that you’re all safe now.”

After hearing Xue Nai’s account of what happened, Lu Chuan pinched the bridge of his nose and said with a bitter smile, “In the short term, it’s better to stay here. After all, the Penglai Immortal Domain may continue to retaliate against me, and it wouldn’t be good if you happen to encounter them again.”

“Hmm… Actually, I was thinking of taking my sister back to the Island Country, to visit home.”

“Why so suddenly? Are you not used to living in Cathay?”

Suzumiya Setsuna quickly shook her head and explained, “No, Lu Chuan! I just feel that since I’ve been out for so long, I should go back and take a look, and besides…”

Moreover, Xue Nai’s real intention was to come to Cathay to become Lu Chuan’s woman and stay by his side.

But so much time has passed, and Lu Chuan hasn’t even mentioned it. She’s a girl and feels too embarrassed to bring it up herself…

Rather than staying here and dealing with baseless jealousy, it might be better to go home.

Lu Chuan seemed to see through Suzumiya Setsuna’s thoughts and smiled knowingly.

“Ichikazu, why don’t you check if Ms. Embroideress is calling you outside? I think I heard her voice.”

“Eh? Really? But I didn’t hear anything.”

“It’s true, I heard it. Go check, maybe she has something to tell you?”

Upon hearing this, Ichikazu nodded, got up, and left the room.

Lu Chuan then took the opportunity to wrap one arm around Suzumiya Setsuna’s waist, pulled her into his embrace, and planted a kiss on her. Setsuna’s mind went completely blank, and she stood there dazed, gazing straight at Lu Chuan, her cheeks flushed.

“Lu… Lu Chuan…”

“Shh, Ichikazu is back.”

Lu Chuan smiled mischievously, releasing Xue Nai’s waist, just as Ichikazu pushed open the door and walked in, looking confused. “Brother Lu Chuan, Ms. Embroideress said she wasn’t looking for me at all; it seems you heard wrong.”

“Then I might have heard wrong, no worries. Where did we leave off just now?”

“Uh… Sister said she wanted to go home and take a look.”

“I thought it over, and it’s better to stay in Cathay. Ichikazu, don’t you like living here?”

Suzumiya Setsuna shifted the conversation and continued, “When we get home, Father will force you to cultivate all day. Do you really want to go back?”

“I don’t!”

“Then just settle down and consider this place your home. I have some things to do, so I’ll leave first. You two get some rest.”

“Okay.”

Suzumiya Setsuna watched Lu Chuan leave, her mind filled with unexpected questions, causing her face to blush once more.

“Sister, why is your face suddenly so red? Are you not feeling well?”

“Ah? Oh! No, no! Maybe it’s just a bit stuffy, a breath of fresh air should help.”

After thinking it over, Xue Nai decided to tell a little lie.

After all, she is the elder sister.

Having a tiny bit of privilege should be fine, right?

…

That night.

Suzumiya Setsuna, seeing Ichikazu sound asleep, sneakily slid out of bed, threw on a nightgown, and tiptoed out of the room.

After carefully identifying Lu Chuan’s room, Setsuna gently knocked on the door.

“Lu Chuan…”

“I didn’t lock the door. You can come in.”

Setsuna then pushed the door open, looked around to ensure no one noticed her, quickly ran inside, and closed the door.

“What are you doing, sneaking around? Feeling guilty like a thief?”

“I… I’m not! I’m not a thief!”

Suzumiya Setsuna swallowed, sneakily glanced at Lu Chuan, and thankfully, he was dressed.

“Why aren’t you asleep at this hour? What are you doing here?”

“I… you!”

Seeing Setsuna’s embarrassed expression, Lu Chuan chuckled knowingly, lifted the quilt, patted the spot next to him, and said, “Come on, let’s talk.”

Under Lu Chuan’s sparkling gaze, Setsuna bit her lips, cautiously climbed into the quilt.

What can she say? It was really warm, and the quilt was filled with Lu Chuan’s scent, which gave her immense assurance.

“Is Ichikazu asleep?”

“Yeah, sleeping soundly.”

“Don’t be tense, relax. Why are you like a piece of wood?”

Lu Chuan poked at the soft flesh on Xue Nai’s waist, and she instantly relaxed, laughing and wriggling, “That tickles!”

“There you go, relax a little.”

“I… I’m a bit nervous…”

Suzumiya Setsuna grabbed Lu Chuan’s wrist, only feeling her heartbeat getting faster and thudding louder.

“Don’t worry, whenever you’re ready, we can talk.”

Speaking, Lu Chuan wrapped her from the back, feeling the warmth of the embrace, Setsuna’s nervousness gradually subsided. She turned around, burying her head into Lu Chuan’s chest.

“Let’s… start…”

Suzumiya Setsuna was too shy to lift her head, her voice barely louder than a mosquito’s, prompting Lu Chuan to lower his head in confusion, “Hmm? What did you say?”

“I said hmm!”

Before Setsuna could finish speaking, Lu Chuan leaned in for a kiss, deftly slipping off her nightgown while pulling the large quilt over the two of them.

Meanwhile, in Setsuna’s room.

Suzumiya Ichikazu woke up from a dream, struggling to sit up, instinctively reached out beside her, only to find the space empty, leaving her stunned.

“Where’s my sister?”

Where has such a big sister gone!

…

Meanwhile, in Cloud City.

Mu Nanqing was suddenly woken up from her sleep. She didn’t want to pay attention at first, but the knocking grew louder, forcing her to get up and open the medical center’s door.

“Jiaxin? And Senior Li, how come you’re here?”

“Long time no see, Ms. Nanqing, I missed you so much! Come, give me a hug!”

Ye Jiaxin laughed and threw herself into Mu Nanqing’s arms, explaining, “I was so bored at home alone, so mom brought me to Cloud City. Where’s Lu Chuan? Is Lu Chuan in Cloud City?”

“No, I think he’s in Jiangbei? Why didn’t you go to Jiangbei to find him?”

“Mom said Jiangbei isn’t suitable for pregnancy, so she wouldn’t let me go…”

“There was just a battle in Jiangbei, and who knows if people from the Penglai Immortal Domain will return. It’s indeed not very safe. Since you’re pregnant, you should be careful.”

“Got it, Mom~”

Ye Jiaxin pouted, gently caressing her slightly bulging belly, her eyes glowing with maternal care, smiling, “Isn’t it a bit noticeable?”

“It really is! Just a few months, right? Not even four months and you can already see it? Oh! Look at me, come on in. Come inside, Vivi, Jiaxin is here!”

“Jiaxin? The little one!”

An initially drowsy Ji Weiwei perked up immediately upon hearing this, hurriedly ran out of the room in a small tank top, gazing in awe at Ye Jiaxin’s belly.

“Can I… touch it?”

“Of course, I’m not that fragile.”

Ye Jiaxin placed her hand on her own belly, letting Ji Weiwei gently feel it, as if sensing life itself, widening her eyes in amazement.

“So cute!”

“…It hasn’t even fully developed yet.”

“Is that so? But it’s still so cute!”
