Chapter 211 Long-lost Ordinary Life

That night, the two stayed in the same room and slept in the same bed, but did nothing until early morning.

After being apart for five years, they met again. There were no overly romantic sweet words or vows of eternal love between the two. They just slept in each other's arms. There was no need to say anything more.

Early in the morning, the first ray of sunlight came in through the window, and Chen Xuan woke up immediately.

Looking at the beauty beside his pillow, he suddenly felt a little regretful. He really didn't do anything that night and just slept all night.

"Am I a beast now, or worse than a beast?" he said to himself. This is a false proposition and no matter how he answered it, it would be wrong.

Chen Xuan didn't move at all. His whole arm was numb. His arm was being rested on by a little head. He wanted to pull it free, but was afraid of waking up Xiao Wu. So he decided to let her sleep a little longer.

The sunlight was very warm, falling on Xiao Wu's fair face. Her eyelids trembled slightly, and she gradually woke up.

Soon, she found herself hugging an arm and using it as a pillow. Her cheeks immediately flushed. She quickly let go of her arm and hurriedly tidied her clothes.

"Don't worry, you didn't drool much while sleeping last night." Chen Xuan joked with a smile.

"Nonsense, you're the one drooling. I'm a fairy, and fairies never drool!" Xiao Wu's cheeks flushed, and she pretended to be calm, but she was actually panicking in her heart.

Chen Xuan was startled to find that his arm was really wet. He quickly wiped it and found that his fingertips were covered with sticky liquid. He asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"That's sweat. It was too hot last night!" Xiao Wu's face turned even redder. She glared at him angrily, with a hint of threat in her beautiful eyes.

Chen Xuan was stunned. Why did this scene feel so familiar? It seemed like it had happened five years ago...

What was Xiao Wu’s excuse at that time… dew?
"Don't lie in bed, you lazy idiot. The sun is already shining on your butt. Hurry up and get up!" Xiao Wu got up from the bed, walked out without combing her hair, and went out to prepare breakfast.

Chen Xuan was speechless. It was obviously him who woke up first, and the topic change was too abrupt.

He also got out of bed, walked out of the cabin, and went to help in the warm sunshine. He did not expose Xiao Wu, which was to save face for the child's mother.

A fire was lit by the lake, and a porcelain pot was steaming. Xiao Wu, dressed in pink but with messy hair, was cooking porridge and cutting vegetables on the lawn, and was gradually getting busy.

Her movements were very skillful and her knife skills were excellent. It was obvious that she had been cooking for a long time.

Chen Xuan took a closer look and his face turned green. It was full of carrots, a whole pot of carrot porridge.

Isn’t it said that rabbits don’t like to eat carrots? Why is it completely different for him?
"Chen Xuan, the porridge is ready. Eat it while it's hot before it gets cold." Xiao Wu filled a bowl of carrot porridge and walked over with it.

Chen Xuan glanced at the wooden bowl. It was filled with carrot cubes and there was almost no rice porridge. Was it really edible?
Moreover, he looked at the steaming rice porridge and wondered how he could eat it when it was so hot. Shouldn't it be cooled down before eating?

If he drank it like this, his tongue would definitely be burned. He even began to suspect that the man was holding a grudge against him for drooling, so he made a bowl of porridge to get back at him.

At this time, Xiao Wu's forehead was covered with tears, and she was looking at him expectantly, which made Chen Xuan feel helpless. He wanted to refuse but didn't know how to say it.

"Oh, what a sin!" He sighed heavily, gave up, scooped up a spoonful of carrot rice porridge and drank it.

Then, he was stunned. It was unexpectedly delicious. Not only did it taste like carrots, but it also had a light medicinal aroma. It was not bitter, but very sweet.

Watching Chen Xuan drinking the porridge he had cooked himself, Xiao Wu felt sweet and satisfied, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

"It tastes great." Chen Xuan gave a thumbs up, trying to act as exaggerated as possible.

Hearing the compliment, Xiao Wu felt sweet in her heart and said with a giggle: "Of course, during the time you were away, I was the only one who took care of my daughter!"

She paused for a moment, as if she regretted something, and added: "Um... and Zhuqing, she also helped me a lot when you were away, and took care of Qiu'er as if she were her own daughter." "Qiu'er, so this is my daughter's name..." Chen Xuan murmured to himself, and smiled: "What a nice name, as expected, naming is something that should be left to my wife."

"You are such a chatterbox. Who is your wife? Why are you talking nonsense here?" Xiao Wu pretended to be angry and tapped Chen Xuan's forehead lightly to express her dissatisfaction.

In fact, she had already accepted Chen Xuan a long time ago. Now hearing these words, her heart was sweet, as happy as if she had eaten honey, but she just didn't want to show it.

She was afraid that she would be too easily won by Chen Xuan, and their feelings would fade, leading to a bad outcome.

Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and only now did he react. He said stupidly, "Was I just teased?"

He found that Xiao Wu was still the same lively and naughty person as before, and she had not changed much even after giving birth to a child.

She was too depressed some time ago, which made her less lively and active. Now that the crisis is resolved and her life is getting better, she has gradually returned to her original temperament.

"By the way, does the name Qiu'er have any meaning? Did you think of it in advance?" Chen Xuan asked, feeling that it sounded nice for some reason.

Xiao Wu shook her head, a trace of sadness flashed in the depths of her eyes, and said: "Nothing, because the child was born in autumn and it's a girl, so I gave her this name."

Chen Xuan caught a glimpse of something strange in her eyes, but she didn't want to mention it. He didn't ask any more questions, so he continued, "What if it's a boy? Should he be named Qiu Nan?"

"What?" Xiao Wu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and lightly punched him on the shoulder.

Then, her eyes suddenly turned sad, and her mood became a little low. She said, "If it's a boy, I would probably name him... Chen Ping'an, which means peace and safety. Chen Xuan, I really don't ask you to be great. I just hope you can be safe and healthy, and stay with me and the child."

"Chen Ping'an?" Chen Xuan's eyelids twitched wildly and he covered Xiao Wu's mouth with his hand to stop her from continuing speaking, because this name was really not allowed to be said.

He interrupted, "We are doing well now, we are all healthy and safe. If we have a boy in the future, we will name him Chen Fan. He can either live an ordinary life or an extraordinary life."

"No, that sounds terrible!" Xiao Wu slapped the salty pig's paw away, pouted, and said, "You don't know how to name someone at all. I think Chen Ping'an sounds better."

Chen Xuan was terrified. This was really not something he should say. He quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, where is our daughter? Isn't she in the Xingdou Great Forest?"

Before this, he had opened his perception many times, but did not detect any blood-related aura within dozens of kilometers.

"As for Qiu'er, I entrusted her to Zhuqing's care. She should be in the Xingluo Empire now." Xiao Wu replied.

She thought Chen Xuan would not survive, and wanted revenge, to make the Spirit Hall pay the price, and then went down to accompany Chen Xuan.

"Don't do such stupid things in the future." Chen Xuan sighed and gently stroked Xiao Wu's beautiful hair.

He had already heard from the Azure Bull Python about some of Xiao Wu's abnormal behavior, and now combined with all of that, he had a rough idea.

Xiao Wu's eyes were flustered, her hands nervously clutching the corners of her clothes, not daring to look directly at Chen Xuan. It was obvious that her thoughts had been guessed.

"But I still have to thank you." Although he didn't want Xiao Wu to do that kind of thing, Chen Xuan still felt warm in his heart. It was really hard to ask for someone to be willing to die together with him. It proved that everything he did was worth it and there was no right or wrong person.
