From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 180: Chapter 178: Feeling Guilty?_1



"Wow..."

While the two were in a daze, the tiny, colorful creature perched in Fang Ren's palm, no larger than a grain, called out again and slowly crawled toward Mu Huanqing.

Mu Huanqing carefully reached out to pick it up and found it was affectionately rubbing its cheek against her.

Fang Ren lifted little Qianye again, looking puzzled as he said, "Why did you call it out so early?"

"Hee-haw, hee-haw!"

With a flurry of dancing and waving, little Qianye wrote its message on its own branch, leaving Fang Ren perplexed once he read it.

The message from little Qianye was that it saw Fang Ren seemed eager to meet the child sooner, so it had drawn out the Spirit Form. As long as the Spirit Form matured early, the little master would grow faster, and the child could be born in just a few months.

"Growing faster... won't this affect Qing'er and the child?" Fang Ren couldn't help but express his concern.

"Hee-haw, hee-haw!"

Little Qianye shook its head, then wrote many words on its arm, which assured Fang Ren after he read them.

After a while, little Qianye transferred some energy to the colorful little creature.

Eventually, the little one managed to stand up unsteadily, like a child just learning to walk. Mu Huanqing's face blossomed into a smile as she saw the blue little creature stand, as if she was watching her future child learn to walk.

Whoosh—

The colorful little creature didn't sustain itself for long, seeming tired, it yawned in Mu Huanqing's palm and then transformed into a bundle of colorful light that flew into Mu Huanqing's lower abdomen.

Watching the colorful little creature disappear, Fang Ren's face held a reminiscent smile as he said, "Just now, I felt like I saw our child."

"I had the same feeling," Mu Huanqing nodded, then lifted her head and smiled, "By the way, what should we name our child?"

"This... it's not even born yet, we're not sure if it's a boy or girl, let's discuss it slowly after it's born."

"No, I want to choose a name now."

"You're in such a hurry."

...

The two bickered for a while, and little Qianye suddenly felt superfluous, muttering a "hee-haw" in complaint, then dissolved into a gray light and returned inside Fang Ren.

In a beautiful world for two, time always flies fast.

Saying sweet nothings, teasing each other, discussing the future... unconsciously it was evening.

Bang bang bang—

Mu Huanqing was nestled in Fang Ren's embrace when a sudden knock on the door came, and her smiling face instantly turned somewhat helpless.

Without a doubt, they both guessed it must be Bai Qi, that girl.

"Fang Ren! I'm hungry!"

Just as they thought of her, they heard her voice coming from outside their room.

Upon hearing the girl's shout, Fang Ren was utterly embarrassed; didn't she consider how much she ate at noon, having eaten until she looked pregnant, yet she was still hungry?

"Wait for me a moment."

Fang Ren let go of Mu Huanqing and walked to the door. He didn't open it but spoke through the crack, "Bai Qi, well, I'm not very hungry right now, why don't you eat something by yourself?"

No sooner had his words fallen than Bai Qi's indignant voice came through the door.

"Ah? You're telling me to eat by myself!"

"What... what's the matter?" Fang Ren was rather puzzled by her sudden anger.

"Aren't you worried I might get tricked by someone with just two lollipops? Plus, my Cultivation Level is sealed now; what if I encounter a thug on the street? Do you not care about your fiancée's chastity at all!" Bai Qi shouted.

Fang Ren had a headache listening to her; even though she was outside, her voice was too loud, and he figured the whole hotel corridor must be under her dominion by now.

"It's okay, isn't Chen Cheng still by your side to protect you?" Fang Ren said.

"I just called him, and he ignored me," Bai Qi replied. "Also, do you have to talk to me through a door?"

Fang Ren was stunned, turned to look back at Mu Huanqing, and realized that Chen Cheng had not woken up since he had been knocked out earlier.

Mu Huanqing saw him looking back and smiled awkwardly, then whispered, "I've suppressed his Divine Sense with True Qi; he probably won't wake up until tomorrow morning."

"This..."

Fang Ren grimaced, about to have his sleep with his wife interrupted.

"You go with her; I'll wait for you here," said Mu Huanqing.

"Fang Ren! What are you doing in there? Open the door already!" Bai Qi's voice began to ring out again from outside: "Do you have another woman out there! Open the door for me!"

Mu Huanqing laughed after hearing this, turned into a silver light, and flew out of the window.

Fang Ren watched her leave, his face flush with embarrassment; she was the rightful mistress, yet why did she have to sneak around?

No, he would definitely have to hint to Bai Qi at dinner tonight that he genuinely didn't like her and that the one he loved was already carrying his child.

Turning around, Fang Ren opened the door only to see Bai Qi standing outside, wearing a peaked cap and looking up at him with an angry face.

"Step aside!"

Bai Qi, seeing the door open, didn't utter another word and walked straight in, her face adorned with a vigilant expression of catching a cheater, and she started searching every corner of the room.

"What are you looking for?" Fang Ren said with an expression of helplessness on his face.

Bai Qi ignored her, searching the entire room until even under the bed had been glanced at, then he looked at Fang Ren seriously, "Tell me, who was the woman you were with just now, here in this room?"

"What woman?" Fang Ren said as she sat on the bed, her face still wearing that helpless expression.

Bai Qi pointed at the messy bed sheets and pillows and said, "The bed is such a mess, I don't believe you did this alone."

"That's because my Realm had a breakthrough just now, my body was in pain, so I rolled around on the bed a few times," Fang Ren said.

After hearing this, Bai Qi immediately picked up a pillow and sniffed it, his expression growing more serious, "Lies! There's clearly another woman's fragrance on the pillow!"

"Ah? Her perfume scent is on me?" Fang Ren continued to play dumb, "No, that's a crime committed by your nose; you've made a mistake."

"Still playing dumb, are you!"

Angered, Bai Qi directly threw the pillow in his hand, his expression becoming more and more enraged, "Why didn't you tell me!"

"Tell you what?"

"About the other woman you have outside!"

"There's no one, the fragrance is just the hotel's own, perhaps the staff was lazy and thought this room wasn't dirty, so they didn't change the bed linen and pillows."

Fang Ren said this out loud, but in his heart, he was again justifying to himself. Although there's no woman outside, there is a wife at home.

"Believe it or not, I'm going to ask to see the surveillance right now," Bai Qi said with a serious look.

"Huh?"

Fang Ren was stunned, he had forgotten about that move. Mu Huanqing's entrance just now would surely have been captured by the corridor's surveillance camera, and an investigation would blow his cover.

"What huh? You're already feeling guilty!"

"No, it's just... can you trust me a little more? Do I look like the kind of person who messes around before the marriage contract is dissolved?"

"You're still being obstinate!"

The expression on Bai Qi's face shifted from anger to a look of grievance as he turned his face away, refusing to look at him.

Fang Ren, seeing that she wasn't going to go out to check the surveillance, probably meant to spare him some face.

But Fang Ren couldn't admit to it now. What he did wasn't a betrayal. He and Mu Huanqing were together back when he had no idea about his fiancée.

The word "betrayal" cannot be associated with him, and if he were to tell Bai Qi about his affair with Mu Huanqing now, who knows what the girl would do?

If the old man from the Bai Family learns that his relationship with Bai Qi has shattered and they can't continue together, he fears that they would fasten him and Bai Qi together.

Suddenly, Fang Ren was about to enter Oscar Actor Mode, about to play out a melodramatic scene.

However, before he could speak, he heard Bai Qi, who was turned away from him, making a noise again. This time her voice was very aggrieved, filled with sorrow, with no trace of anger.

"Why did you have to lie to me..." her voice was full of heartache.

"I truly didn't lie to you," Fang Ren said with a look of distress, "If you really want to check the surveillance, let's do it now, but this is a matter of trust. When you mentioned checking the surveillance earlier, the reason I was taken aback was that I never expected you to distrust me so much."

"Then how do you explain the scent in the room?" Bai Qi turned his head to look at him.

Fang Ren pretended to be troubled and shook his head, "That I really don't know."

After hearing his words, Bai Qi looked sad and turned her eyes away from his face without saying another word.

Seeing this, Fang Ren quickly intensified his acting.

His expression suddenly became angry, and with a trace of annoyance in his voice, he said, "Aren't you meddling too much?"

Listening to his tone while speaking to her, Bai Qi was stunned, her gaze returning to Fang Ren's face, only to see his furious expression.

"We had an agreement that we couldn't betray each other before the dissolution of the marriage contract!" Bai Qi said seriously.

Fang Ren began, "First of all, besides you, no other woman has set foot in this room."

But the wife did...

Fang Ren paused for a moment and seriously continued, "Also, even if another woman did enter this room, why should you bother about it? I haven't been with this woman publically, and no one knows about my relationship with her."

"We agreed before that: no cheating with someone of the opposite sex before the contract is dissolved, this rule exists for the face of both parties, in case one cheats during the marriage contract period, so the other won't lose face and be the talk of everyone in Tianjiang," Fang Ren said, "You don't even like me, so why care so much?

I can be with whomever I want, as long as it isn't seen, as long as it doesn't make you lose face, then it adheres to our original agreement."

"..."

Listenting, Bai Qi was stunned, her mind seemingly blank, feeling as though she was pricked by something.

Fang Ren didn't stop speaking, he added one more sentence, "Of course, all the above are just assumptions; no other woman has come into this room."

The wife doesn't count!

Seeing the dazed expression on Bai Qi's face, Fang Ren felt his plan to guide her thoughts was still feasible.

His words had already switched the concept they'd initially agreed on regarding the contract.

He replaced the loyalty to the "marriage contract" with the so-called "public face."

As long as Bai Qi accepts his viewpoint, the next time she meets with Song Mobei, she'll have many opportunities to pursue Song Mobei.

In his view, the situation was perfect.

Firstly, he didn't admit that a woman had been in his room, and secondly, by using hypotheticals, he indirectly suggested that Bai Qi and Song Mobei could get emotionally closer without regard for the marriage contract.
