Out of fear of death, Invest Everything into Health
Chapter 621 - 244: Give Her a Bit of Light, and She’ll Shine Like a Little Sun (Part 3)
"She’s my friend. Jiang Sha, no matter what you’re planning, don’t you dare deceive her feelings. She’s already been hurt badly in these matters."
Jiang Sha said, "I never lie."
"You’ve lied to me several times already," Fan Wubing pouted.
Jiang Sha laughed, "Except for you."
Fan Wubing rolled his eyes, "Yeah, right. In this regard, I really don’t want to be your exception." Then he turned to Liu Qingqing and said, "Sister Liu, I’m leaving for a few days. Please take good care of her."
Liu Qingqing nodded absent-mindedly.
She was a bit confused, why does it sound like I’m the temporary worker here? Taking the guests for host, huh!
Soon after, she felt a mysterious power permeate every fiber of her being. Her aged appearance reversed a few years in an instant. She realized it was Fan Wubing extending her lifespan.
Fan Wubing laughed, "Staying by her side shortens your life span, after all. However, it’s a bit challenging for me, so Sister Liu, don’t dislike it for being too little."
Lifespan is not something one complains about being too short.
Liu Qingqing’s eyes were complicated; she didn’t speak, just shook her head.
Fan Wubing said to Jiang Sha, "You’re getting on in years, don’t go tricking young girls! Having An An who lets you tease her is enough."
"An An... are you two that close?" Jiang Sha smiled.
Fan Wubing snorted, "I thought we were getting along better, but now it seems I was just overthinking. That girl takes my good intentions as donkey’s liver and lungs. To her, I’m just a guide to brothels."
Jiang Sha chuckled.
Fan Wubing waved goodbye, striding away, and in the blink of an eye, disappeared from Changning City.
Shortly after he left, An An hurried after them. She came up to the two and quickly asked,
"Slaughter Demon Lord, Sister Liu, have you seen Fan Wubing?"
Liu Qingqing asked, "What’s wrong? Why are you in such a rush?"
An An said uneasily, "I think I made him mad just now. I..."
Jiang Sha laughed and asked, "Do you want to apologize to him?"
An An immediately puffed out her chest, "Why should I apologize! I won’t apologize to anyone!"
"Really?"
An An instantly deflated and scratched her head, "Sigh, I don’t know what to say. Anyway, he misunderstood me. I was just busy and didn’t speak properly."
Jiang Sha said, "Scratching your head like that isn’t ladylike."
An An immediately put her hand down, "So, do you know where he went?"
Liu Qingqing smiled, "Too late, he just left."
"Did he say where he was going?"
"He never says where he’s going."
"He said he’d be back in a few days... shouldn’t be far, right." An An gazed towards the horizon.
Liu Qingqing speculated, "It’s hard to say. He often goes on adventures, he might be gone for years."
"Years?!" An An exclaimed.
Liu Qingqing laughed, "It could even be decades, or hundreds of years isn’t impossible either."
An An’s mouth dropped wide open. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Liu Qingqing said, "He might never come back."
"Why?!" An An looked at her, utterly confused.
Liu Qingqing said, "He’s a very free-spirited person. If he feels uncomfortable somewhere, he just leaves. Maybe he finds this estate uncomfortable for some reason?"
An An asked cautiously, "Is it because I made him angry that he’s gone?"
"Hard to say."
An An stood there helplessly.
Jiang Sha smiled, "Qingqing, stop teasing her." She reached out and tapped An An gently on the back of her head, "Don’t worry. He’s not that petty. He’s just gone for a few days, he’ll be back."
"Really?" An An was filled with hope.
"Really."
An An let out a sigh of relief, "Sister Liu, why did you lie?! The Slaughter Demon Lord is the best." She pondered for a moment, blinking her eyes, "Then I’ll just stay at home, prepare my plan for mischief, and wait for him to come back."
Jiang Sha and Liu Qingqing asked in unison, "What plan for mischief?"
An An paused, "Slaughter Demon Lord, Sister Liu, have you forgotten? I’m here in the Shangjing Immortal Dynasty to create havoc!"
Liu Qingqing looked her up and down and asked with a laugh, "Are you planning to charm those guys to death?"
"Sister Liu! Stop joking!" An An said seriously, "If I don’t show you guys a thing or two, you’ll forget I’m the Anger Demon Lord who commands the Anger Demon Dao!"
Jiang Sha clapped his fists, "Xiaonu, go for it!"
"Hmm!"
After that, An An walked away briskly.
Liu Qingqing said, "Hall Master, don’t you think Xiaonu has become more adorable?"
Jiang Sha smiled, "After all, she’s only thirteen. Give her a bit of light, and she shines like a little sun. She used to always hide in the shadows, the whole person was gloomy."
Liu Qingqing sighed, "Being around Fan Wubing really makes one more energetic."
"Do you think so?"
"Both Xiaonu and you, Hall Master, have become more lively."
Jiang Sha asked, "Have I?"
"Of course, it’s quite obvious."
Jiang Sha fell into deep thought.
