Chapter 235: What Should I Do?

“Young Master… Young Master, please don’t bully Sister Zhu Ling, okay?”

Sikong Wangxing’s Star Eyes blinked as she looked at Lin Xun. Her small plea and gentle, wind-like words were like the warm sun of winter, ready to melt Lin Xun’s heart.

This truly was a very kind and gentle girl.

Any man who could marry her as his wife must have saved the Universe in his previous life and chased away all the Little Monsters.

“Don’t worry, I won’t bully her,” Lin Xun agreed with a smile. “However, if she bullies me, then that’s another story.”

. Sikong Wangxing was momentarily speechless, worry showing in her eyes.

Because Sister Zhu Ling would definitely go and bully Young Master Lin later.

She was afraid that Young Master would pick her up like an Ansai Waist Drum and spank her butt.

“Alright, alright, I was just teasing you. I promise you, I won’t bully that Little White Rabbit.”

Seeing the girl hesitant to speak, yet clearly wanting to persuade him, Lin Xun sighed softly and walked forward.

Sikong Wangxing still held her hands clasped in front of her, her delicate head slightly lowered, following obediently beside Lin Xun with small steps.

Lin Xun had always felt that Sikong Wangxing resembled a Yamato Nadeshiko; if she had long silver-white hair, she would look too similar to Kamisato Ayaka.

Thinking of this, Lin Xun glanced at the girl beside him, who was just over 1.6 meters tall, and thought that if she put on Kamisato Ayaka’s clothes, she would look like she had stepped right out of the Two-Dimensional World.

Sensing Lin Xun’s continuous gaze, Sikong Wangxing lowered her delicate head even further, and a flush quietly spread to the girl’s ears.

“Cough, cough, cough.” Noticing his impolite gaze, Lin Xun cleared his throat and straightened his expression.

At the same time, as it was nearing evening, night fell, replaced by the red lanterns and deep blue Ice Lanterns hung high across Luo City.

Furthermore, because the Ice and Snow Festival was the day after tomorrow, Luo City was essentially fully decorated, with various red ribbons and ice-blue ribbons connecting the shops.

Whether they were local residents of Luo City or outside tourists, everyone was excited, strolling hand-in-hand down the streets, with couples passing by Lin Xun and Sikong Wangxing.

The elegant yet brightly lit Luo City, the couples coming and going, their intimate speech, and the alternation of sunset glow and nightfall—everything made the atmosphere incredibly ambiguous.

Feeling Wang Xing following obediently beside him without saying a word, and recalling the engagement between himself and Wang Xing, an even stranger feeling surged into Lin Xun’s heart.

It felt as if he and Wang Xing were already a couple, already engaged, and were just prospective husband and wife waiting for the wedding.

Lin Xun shook his head, quickly trying to get rid of this undesirable thought!

This must definitely be the problem with the Qingtian Xuannü Technique! Absolutely!

“Your health wasn’t good to begin with, how did Tianji City let you come out?”

Lin Xun changed the subject, unable to let himself sink further.

Otherwise, under the effect of the Karma law of the Qingtian Xuannü Technique, he might truly end up marrying Wang Xing, and then Qinger would bury him under a rock.

“The day after tomorrow is my birthday,” Sikong Wangxing slowly began, hearing Lin Xun’s question. “I wanted to come out to relax and see the Qian Kingdom’s Ice and Snow Festival, and Mother agreed.”

Sikong Wangxing originally wanted to say ‘relax,’ but fearing Lin Xun would realize she was relaxing because of him, and not wanting him to feel pressured by her, the girl changed her phrasing.

“Birthday?” Lin Xun was startled and immediately felt guilty.

What was this like? It was like the girl was already his fiancée, but he didn’t even know her birthday.

Although Lin Xun felt he wasn’t responsible for this particular matter, he still felt very self-reproachful and guilty, feeling like a total scumbag.

“So… so Miss Sikong was born on New Year’s Day,” Lin Xun stammered slightly.

“Mhm,” the girl responded softly. “Grandpa said Wang Xing should have actually been born on the nineteenth of the third month, just like Young Master, but Wang Xing was too eager to come out, so she arrived two months early.”

. Lin Xun’s heart was in utter turmoil.

She knew his birthday, but he knew absolutely nothing about hers!

Damn, why do I feel like such a scumbag!

The two continued walking down the street, falling into silence once more.

Lin Xun was too guilty to speak.

Wang Xing, meanwhile, gently touched the Storage Pouch at her waist with her small hand.

Ever since she was a child and learned she had a fiancé, Wang Xing would make a birthday present for Lin Xun every year.

Originally, Wang Xing asked her grandfather to give them to Lin Xun, but the Old City Lord of Tianji City smiled and told Wang Xing, “In the future, Wang Xing can give them to him herself.”

So, Wang Xing looked forward to meeting Lin Xun one day. Even during the two years Lin Xun was missing, Wang Xing still made him gifts every year.

Now, Lin Xun had already reached the Weak Crown Age, and the girl had prepared twenty birthday gifts for him.

Wang Xing had originally thought that on the day she met Lin Xun, she would give him all twenty years’ worth of birthday gifts on his birthday.

But unexpectedly, what awaited the girl was the Annulment of Engagement.

“If I give these gifts to Young Master Lin now, will Young Master Lin still accept them?”

Sikong Wangxing raised her eyes, glanced gently at Lin Xun’s profile, and lightly bit her thin cherry lips with her pearly teeth.

But the girl knew even more clearly that if she didn’t give the gifts this time…

Once today passed, she might never have another chance.

Would she be able to see Young Master Lin again? What reason would she have to see Young Master Lin?

This meeting was already a coincidence.

“Lin…”

“Miss Wangxing, usually, what do Miss Wangxing’s parents give you for your birthday?”

Just as Sikong Wangxing made up her mind that she wanted to give the gifts even if he refused, Lin Xun spoke up and interrupted her.

At the same time, the courage Wang Xing had painstakingly mustered slowly faded away due to Lin Xun’s interruption.

“Eh? Gifts from Mother and Father to Wang Xing?”

“Yeah, well,” Lin Xun looked nervously into the distance. “It’s just that Tianji City is a famously wealthy family in the Cultivation World, so I… I’m quite curious.”

“In previous years, Father would give Wang Xing Immortal Weapons and Immortal Plants. Mother would give Wang Xing Auspicious Spirit Beasts with ancient Bloodlines.”

Sikong Wangxing replied, not knowing why Lin Xun was curious about this, but answering truthfully nonetheless.

“Grandpa likes to give Wang Xing Dynasties. Grandpa buys those Dynasties and then uses Wang Xing’s name as the National Title.”

.

As he listened, Lin Xun’s eyebrow twitched slightly.

Damn it, what should I do?

With only one day left, where am I supposed to find Immortal Weapons and Immortal Plants?

Or should I quickly go find a Mortal World Dynasty, conquer it, and give it to Wang Xing as a gift?
