“Young Master, do you know how to make pastries?”
“A little. I just don’t know if it suits your taste.”
“Then I’ll try it.”
As Jiu Ji spoke, she took the wooden box from Chen An. Her gaze landed on the lid of the box and she had a thought. She wanted to open the lid from afar.
However, there was no movement from the lid.
She had forgotten that she did not have a trace of spiritual power in her body.
After reacting, she couldn’t wait to open the lid of the box with her hand. She looked at the colorful spirit cake inside, picked up one of the purple pieces, put it to her mouth, and bit down expectantly.
“Oh, it’s so delicious!”
Jiu Ji’s eyes lit up as she praised him endlessly.
Chen An smiled gently and said, “If you like it, I’ll make another serving for you when I cook for my wives and daughters in the future.”
“Okay, okay!”
Jiu Ji nodded as she ate the spirit cake.
After saying that, she said in disbelief, “Young Master is really a good husband. He even took the initiative to cook for his wives and daughters. He’s completely different from other human male Cultivators.”
“I’m alright.” Chen An smiled and said.
Jiu Ji did not respond again. She kept eating the spirit cake in her hand. Before she could swallow it, she ate another piece. She looked like a mortal who had been hungry for a few days.
Chen An had a strong impression of Jiu Ji’s behavior. It was a little like seeing the silly girl’s second daughter, Chen Yi Ke.
After Jiu Ji finished eating the spirit cake, Chen An’s gaze landed on the storybooks placed at the head of the bed. He asked Jiu Ji, “Have you finished reading those books?”
“Yes, I’m done.”
Jiu Ji’s pretty face was a little red.
She felt embarrassed when she thought of the baby-making behavior described in the book.
Chen An did not expose her shyness. Instead, with a thought, he took out the books on love between men and women from his storage ring and handed them to her calmly.
“I just bought this for you to see. I’ll buy more after you’re done reading it.”
“Is it the same as the last three?”
Jiu Ji reached out to take the books handed over, and more and more blushes appeared on her pure face.
Chen An nodded and said, “Yes, it’s the same as the three books. If you don’t like to read them, I can buy you other books.”
“That’s not necessary. 1 quite like reading it.”
Jiu Ji’s voice sounded softer than before, and there was a hint of shyness.
After saying that, she asked curiously, “Young Master, are the contents of the book true?”
Chen An was surprised. You’re a vixen. Don’t you know about love between a man and a woman?
After complaining in his heart, he replied, “Yes, it’s true. You were born in this world because your father and mother did the things mentioned in the book.”
In the following period of time, the two of them chatted more and more, and they chatted more and more.
Jiu Ji was no longer as embarrassed as before. Instead, she asked Chen An about it curiously. She was very interested in the love between a man and a woman.
Chen An was already a man with four wives. He could naturally say such things without feeling shy.
As a young fox, Jiu Ji’s face turned red and her body burned. She did not dare to look into Chen An’s eyes, but at the same time, she was filled with curiosity about the love between a man and a woman.
Time passed quickly.
When the two of them ended this topic, the sky outside the cave was already pitch-black.
Chen An belatedly reacted.
He immediately checked the voice transmission talisman in his storage ring.
What he saw was amazing. It was filled with voice messages from his wives.
He did not mind that Jiu Ji was beside him and directly let her voice come out.
Song Huaying: “Husband, it’s late. When are you coming back?”
Gu Xinyue said, “Husband, Little Yuejian and Little Yi Ke are hungry, so we didn’t wait for you to come back for dinner.”
Wen Zhiyun: “Chen An, did you die on that fox demon’s bed?”
Shen Qingyi: “Husband, when do you plan to come back? We’re all very worried about you.”
Wen Zhiyun asked, “Chen An?”
Wen Zhiyun asked, “Where are you?”
Wen Zhiyun asked, “Can you hear me?”
Song Huaying: “Husband?”
Song Huaying: “Husband, don’t scare me. Can you reply to us when you receive the voice transmission?”
After hearing the voices of his wives, Chen An immediately realized that something was wrong. He had made his wives worry.
Without thinking, he quickly sent a voice transmission to his wives. “When 1 passed through the swamp during the day, I was accidentally entangled by a python demon there. I just escaped. Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice transmission talisman vibrated repeatedly.
Song Huaying: “Husband, it’s good that you’re fine.”
Gu Xinyue said, “Husband, I’ll go to the kitchen to heat up food for you now.”
Wen Zhiyun said, “Why do you always run into trouble when you go out? If you have nothing to do in the future, go out less.”
Shen Qingyi said, “Husband, be careful on the way back.”
Chen An: “I’ve made everyone worried. It’s already very late. Everyone, rest early. I’ll be home soon.”
Chen An: “By the way, Yue’er, I’m not hungry. You don’t have to heat up the food. Go to bed early.”
After sending a few messages to his wives, Chen An put the voice transmission talisman back into his storage ring.
When Jiu Ji saw this, she could not help but raise her slender and beautiful eyebrows and say, “Grandma is indeed right. Men are all liars. They are unreliable.”
“That’s another man. I’m different. I’m lying, but it’s all white lies. It’s all so that my wives in the family won’t worry.”
After saying this, Chen An took out his flying sword and flew out of the cave, heading home.
Jiu Ji looked at his departing figure reluctantly. She was already looking forward to his next visit.
Thousand Flower Forest, in the tunnel.
When Chen An returned home, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
It was late, and his wives and daughters were asleep.
However, there was another figure in the hall.
It was the figure of his wife.
However, his wife was so tired that she had fallen asleep on the table. She did not notice that he had returned.
Chen An felt a little guilty.
Then, with a thought, he suspended his wife in the air and sent her back to her room to lie on the bed to sleep.
After that, he took out the clothes he had gotten for free from the Lu Clan’s trading company during the day from his storage ring and chose a peach-colored long dress to place on her bed.
Then, he walked into the room of the other three wives and two daughters. He took out the gifts he had bought for them during the day and placed them on their bed.
He was waiting for them to wake up tomorrow and give them a big surprise.
After doing this, Chen An returned to his room. Since he had nothing to do, he sat cross-legged on the bed and started cultivating.
“Husband, are you cultivating?”
After cultivating for an unknown period of time, the voice of his wife, Song Huaying, suddenly sounded outside the door.
Chen An replied, “Yes, I’m cultivating.”
“Can I come in?”
“Come in.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen An opened the door.
The scene that greeted his eyes was Song Huaying wearing the peach-colored long dress he had bought during the day. She was standing elegantly outside the door, looking extremely beautiful.
“Husband, you’re too much. You didn’t even wake me up when you came back.”
Song Huaying walked over to Chen An with light steps and stopped in front of him. She pouted her red and beautiful lips slightly, and her tone was a little unhappy.
Chen An gently held her small hand and pulled her to sit on his lap. He smiled and explained,
“I saw you sleeping so soundly on the table, so I couldn’t bear to wake you up.”
“You still have the cheek to say that. If you hadn’t come back so late, would I have fallen asleep on the table?”
Song Huaying had a look of condemnation on her face, but she had no intention of blaming Chen An. Instead, she felt sweet inside.
With that said, she got off Chen An and took two steps back. She pinched the sides of her skirt with both hands and raised them slightly. She spun around on the spot like an ethereal immortal. After spinning, she asked,
“Husband, do 1 look good in this dress?”
“It’s so beautiful!”
Chen An praised from the bottom of his heart.
Song Huaying continued to ask, “Then, Husband, who’s prettier between me and that fox demon?”
“She’s not half as good as you.”
Chen An lied to his wife against his conscience.
His wife did not care if it was true or not. She was happy to hear it.
With a sweet smile on her face, she slowly walked in front of Chen An and stopped. She sat on his lap and raised her slender hand to hug his neck. She said in a soft voice,
“Husband, no matter how many concubines you take in, I will always support you as long as you love me the same.”
“No matter when, the person I love the most has always been Ying’er.”
“Husband only knows how to talk glibly.”
“You’ll know if it’s slippery when you try it.
After saying that, Chen An took off his wife’s embroidered shoes and white socks. He took off her peach-colored dress and pink undergarment and hugged her on the bed..
