Chapter 708: Seven hundred and six, I’m counting on you.

Wu Yuan often bought books for the three children and quickly found a dictionary.

Qi Hui and Fang Jingmei also bought some picture books for their own kids.

"Luo Shu, do you like reading books normally?" Wu Tong asked while flipping through a copy of "Soul Mate." She never missed an issue of this magazine, which contained many touching emotional stories.

"Mhm!" Luo Shu nodded with a smile. Now that she was pregnant, she would find some books to read whenever she had free time.

"What kind of books do you like to read?" Wu Tong turned to look at Luo Shu. After interacting with Luo Shu today, she thought she would at least understand her a bit, but instead, Luo Shu had become more and more of an enigma to her. She seemed like a puzzle—just when Wu Tong thought she had the answer, Luo Shu’s behavior would completely overthrow her previous assumptions.

"Anything—as long as it’s interesting." Remembering those days in school when everyone would huddle in the dorm room to read novels together, Luo Shu smiled wryly, feeling somewhat nostalgic for that time.

There was just over a week left before Wang Fei and Uncle’s wedding day, and she would be able to gather with everyone again. As everyone gradually set up their own families and went their separate ways, opportunities to meet would become rarer. Therefore, she always cherished every chance to gather with everyone now.

"I’m currently reading Jane Eyre. Have you read that book?" Wu Tong asked. She was completely captivated by it as soon as she began reading.

She especially liked the heroine of the book—who, despite her humble origins and plain appearance, never felt inferior about herself. The character was strong, unassuming, firm yet gentle, independent, and proactive.

She possessed a strong will to live and never bowed to fate. She had self-respect, self-esteem, self-reliance, and strength. With firm ideals and a persistent pursuit of her own dignity, emotions, life, judgment, and choices, she ultimately achieved the beautiful life she aspired to through her own efforts.

After reading that book, Wu Tong had also been actively trying to become like the heroine in the story.

"I have," Luo Shu said with a smile. She had read that book in her previous life, even several times over.

"We’ve bought our books. Are you planning to buy any?" Wu Yuan and the others, having paid for their purchases, came over.

"No," Wu Tong and Luo Shu shook their heads in unison.

"Let’s go. If we don’t head back now, it will be dark by the time we get home," Wu Yuan said.

As the group walked out of the bookstore, they happened to see Yun Han and a woman walking and chatting together as they approached.

A glint of disappointment flickered in Wu Tong’s eyes.

"Isn’t that Yun Han? Ah, Yun Han!" Wu Yuan called out to Yun Han. She was eager to find out who the woman with Yun Han was, wondering if her sister still had a chance.

Yun Han looked up, and seeing it was Luo Shu and the others, he smiled and said something to the woman next to him before walking over with her.

When they reached Luo Shu and the group, Yun Han nodded with a smile and said to Luo Shu, "Luo Shu, this is my friend Hua Mengran. Mengran, this is Luo Shu, whom I often talk to you about."

"I’ve heard Yun Han mention you often. Seeing you today certainly hasn’t disappointed me," Hua Mengran said with a smile as she shook hands with Luo Shu.

"You flatter me," Luo Shu responded with a light smile. Hua Mengran’s cultivation level was not low; she was at the Nascent Soul Late Stage. Considering her youth, such a level of cultivation signified extraordinary talent.

"There’s a great place that’s about to open up. It’s a shame you’re not in the condition to come along, otherwise, I would have invited you," Hua Mengran said with some regret. With other people around, she naturally couldn’t speak too clearly. The relic that was about to open up was rumored to be an Immortal Trace, and she had only recently received the news. Yun Han had just returned from Lan Star, so she had arranged to discuss the matter with him.

"There will be other opportunities in the future," Luo Shu said with a smile. For now, she wasn’t considering such things; she planned to focus on her baby’s birth first and wait until the child grew a little before she contemplated Ascension to the Immortal Realm.

Xiao Qing and she were bound by a life contract. Xiao Qing would undoubtedly return to the Immortal Realm to avenge the Dragon Clan, and naturally, Luo Shu couldn’t just stand by. Therefore, both she and Hanmo were destined to follow the path of cultivation.

"I look forward to that day," Hua Mengran said with a smile.

Luo Shu curved her lips into a gentle smile, "We need to head back now. We’ll meet again another time."

After bidding farewell to Yun Han and Hua Mengran, the group headed towards where their car was parked.

"Tongtong, watch out for the puddle ahead; what has you so distracted?" Wu Yuan pulled Wu Tong back just as she was about to step into a puddle. If Wu Yuan hadn’t reacted quickly, Wu Tong would have ended up stepping into it. These few days had seen a lot of rain, leaving the roads full of potholes and puddles.

"I have to return tomorrow; I’m somewhat reluctant to leave," Wu Tong said. Although that Hua Mengran wasn’t Yun Han’s girlfriend, it was apparent Yun Han was surrounded by outstanding women, like Hua Mengran and Luo Shu. Compared to them, she felt utterly ordinary.

A bitter smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. She hadn’t expected her love story to end before it even had a chance to start.

Shortly after Luo Shu got home, she received a communication from Yun Han.

"Luo Shu, that relic Hua Mengran and I are planning to visit should be an Immortal Trace, ask Lu Hanmo to see if he’s interested in joining us. I’ll also check with Qian Yu later, in case he wants to come along," Yun Han said. With such a great opportunity, he naturally wanted to consider the people closest to him. If Xiao Yao weren’t confined to Lan Star, he would definitely have invited him along.

Luo Shu looked at Lu Hanmo beside her, "Interested?"

"Where is it?" Lu Hanmo asked.

"In the Qiushan Mountain Realm. I’ve not been there, but Hua Mengran says it’s similar to Lan Star."

"How long will it take?"

"About ten days or so. But there’s no rush; the relic will only open in half a month. Think it over, and if you decide to go, let me know."

"Okay!"

After ending the communication, Lu Hanmo looked at Luo Shu, "Shushu, what do you think?"

After pondering for a moment, Luo Shu said, "It would be a shame to miss such a good opportunity. Let’s go check it out." With Long Jing there, she wasn’t worried about safety.

"You want to go too?" Lu Hanmo looked at Luo Shu’s belly. She’d be five months pregnant by then; she really was bold.

Luo Shu wrapped her arms around Lu Hanmo’s neck, gazing at him with starry eyes and a coquettish tone, "If you’re going, of course I’ll go. Worst comes to worst, I’ll just stay in the space and not go out. Anyway, I’m sticking with you." She had said before that no matter where he went, she would accompany him.

"Really can’t do anything with you!" Lu Hanmo shook his head and smiled, his deep gaze filled with tenderness and love as he looked into her eyes.
