"Let's go!" Zhan Chen said as he led his daughter into the market. The market was bustling with people and the shops had a dazzling array of products.
Different from the world of immortal cultivators, this block mainly sells daily necessities and various snacks. Many sellers simply set up stalls on the roadside and sell along the street.
Zhan Xueting was immediately attracted by some of the gadgets sold by those merchants. She was like a fluttering butterfly flying through the flowers, looking here and bumping there, maintaining a strong curiosity about everything.
Zhan Chen, on the other hand, followed his daughter and looked at her excited look with a smile. Tonight, Zhan Xueting finally took off her cold mask. He was sincerely happy for his daughter's change.
Various merchants also loved this stunning girl, and even some young sellers would shyly offer the things they sold "for free". So after a while, Zhan Xueting's hands were filled, but she
Not even a single Yuan Stone was spent.
Suddenly, Zhan Xueting stopped in front of a shop window and refused to leave for a long time. It turned out that her beautiful eyes were firmly stuck to a beautiful beaded flower on it, and she couldn't move her eyes away.
The shopkeeper was soliciting business at the door. He was overjoyed to see such a beautiful woman and said with a smile: "Beauty, you have really good eyesight. This pearl flower is made from the Eastern Pearl of the Deep Sea. It has the effect of clearing the mind and clearing the mind. It is very rare!"
"So how much does it cost?" Zhan Xueting asked.
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Beauty, if you want it, I will give you the lowest price, one thousand middle-grade immortal stones!"
Zhan Xueting subconsciously touched her storage ring, but frowned, and glanced at the window again, her eyes full of reluctance.
Zhan Chen could see clearly from behind, and couldn't help but be startled, thinking: "No way! My daughter is a strong person in the Yuanshen realm, and she can't even get a thousand middle-grade immortal stones?"
However, this just gave Zhan Chen a chance to perform well. He stepped forward and said to the shopkeeper: "Boss, I want this pearl flower!" As he said this, he generously took out a thousand middle-grade immortal stones.
Seeing how generous he was, the shopkeeper smiled broadly and praised: "Your Majesty, what a gift!" Then he said to Zhan Xueting: "Beauty, you are so lucky. Your boyfriend is so handsome and he treats you so well. It's really a lantern.
It’s also hard to find!”
Zhan Xueting was ignored by his words, her pretty face turned red, and she whispered: "He is not my boyfriend!"
Zhan Chen also quickly explained: "Boss, you are wrong, she is my daughter!" His words were full of pride.
The boss was stunned, then shook his head and sighed: "Daughter, I really can't see it. Sir, you are so lucky!"
"Yes, my daughter is my greatest pride!" Zhan Chen sighed sincerely.
After coming out of the store, Zhan Xueting was still playing with the pearl flowers in her hands. She couldn't put it down and happily said to Zhan Chen: "Thank you, dad!"
Zhan Chen patted his chest and said loudly, "Daughter, daddy will buy you whatever you want. Even the stars and the moon in the sky, daddy will help you pick them!"
This sentence was obviously fake and tacky, but it sounded very nice to Zhan Xueting's ears. She subconsciously hugged Zhan Chen's arm and said, "Dad, you are so good to me!"
"Dad, dad", hearing his daughter call him this, Zhan Chen felt so happy that he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
"Come, daughter, let me put the pearl flowers on for you." Zhan Chen said, taking the pearl flowers from Zhan Xueting's hand, gently inserted it on her head, and then looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but
Praise: "Beautiful!"
"Really?" Zhan Xueting took out the mirror from the storage ring and took a look. Sure enough, the pearls and flowers were as beautiful as people, and the people were as delicate as pearls and flowers! She couldn't help but reveal a bright smile.
After a while, the two left the shop, and Zhan Chen asked again: "By the way, daughter, you are a powerful person in the Yuanshen realm, how come you can't even get a thousand middle-grade immortal stones?"
A trace of confusion flashed in Zhan Xueting's eyes, and she explained: "I have no idea about money. In Jiujue Palace, everything for me is prepared. Even if I need any treasures, the pills are exchanged for merit points, which is useless at all.
When I get to Xianshi, if my mother hadn’t specially told me to come see you this time, I wouldn’t have left Jiujue Palace.”
Zhan Chen looked at her and sighed, and said with concern: "Daughter, your experience in the world is too little. Don't stay in that isolated place all the time. Go out and walk more. This will also be helpful for your future promotion."
Very helpful.”
"knew!"
The father and daughter walked and talked like this, talking and laughing, and it seemed that there was no barrier at all. However, when the two left the market and the surroundings returned to calm, Zhan Xueting seemed to suddenly think of something and let go of her grip.
He took Zhan Chen's hand and took a few steps away from him. The joy on his face suddenly subsided, and he fell into deep thought.
She felt that she was not normal just now, as if she was not what she should be. Was there something wrong with her? She didn't know. In short, she found that her mood had been changing since she met her father.
She was very frightened and at a loss what to do.
When Zhan Chen saw that his daughter was alienated from him again, he hesitated to speak. In the end, he said nothing because he knew that it would take a day to freeze three feet, and it would take a long time for his daughter to completely change her view of him.
But tonight was a good sign. Her daughter showed herself a side of herself that she had never seen before, which meant that she was originally a young and happy girl. It was just that she and Ling Aoxue were never by her side, and
Jiujue Palace is an unkind place, which is why my daughter has such a character.
However, he believed that as long as Zhan Xueting stayed with him for a while, the situation would gradually change, and maybe it wouldn't be long before she would show a smile like tonight's again.
So Zhan Chen asked a question: "Daughter, if you leave Jiujue Palace this time, how long can you stay here?"
Zhan Xueting was silent for a moment and replied: "I can probably stay for another two years."
Zhan Chen sighed and said, "That's good. Please stay with me more. I've always missed you."
When Zhan Xueting heard what he said, she pouted and said, "Don't you have that Zhuang Xiaodie?"
Zhan Chen smiled bitterly and sighed: "You child, that's different. You are my daughter, and the eldest daughter. You also have two younger brothers, one is named Zhan Xu and the other is named Yin Hen. I am also very fond of you."
Missing them, what parent doesn’t care about their children?”
Zhan Xueting looked at Zhan Chen silently. She couldn't bear to reject her father and finally nodded.
"Great! You can live in my Bicui Peak from now on!" Zhan Chen said happily.
From then on, Zhan Xueting temporarily stayed at Bicui Peak and often chatted with Zhan Chen. In order to establish a perfect image in the mind of his daughter, Zhan Chen also temporarily put aside his cultivation and devoted himself to accompany his daughter. Father and daughter.
The relationship between them developed further and unknowingly reached the point of being intimate.
As the saying goes: "There is no airtight wall in this world." On this day, Zhan Xueting was acting coquettishly in Zhan Chen's arms when she happened to be caught by Zhuang Xiaodie who came in.
When she discovered that Zhuang Xiaodie had entered, Zhan Xueting couldn't help but jump up from Zhan Chen. She was at a loss as to what to do. She blamed herself for being so involved just now that she didn't notice the arrival of this woman.
When Zhuang Xiaodie saw Zhan Chen and Zhan Xueting together, she was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Zhan Xueting and shouted: "You were the one that day——"
Zhan Chen also stood up and said with a smile: "Yes, senior sister, she is my and Aoxue's daughter Zhan Xueting."
Zhan Xueting felt awkward and unhappy when she looked at Zhuang Xiaodie. She turned around and wanted to go upstairs, but was stopped by Zhan Chen: "Ting'er, I know you don't like senior sister, but senior sister is also one of the closest people to me.
One, I don’t want to see you two like this, come on, let’s get to know each other.”
Although Zhuang Xiaodie was surprised, she reacted immediately, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hello Xueting, my name is Zhuang Xiaodie, you can just call me aunt."
"Senior sister!" Zhan Chen's eyes flashed with guilt again, but he didn't say anything because he was very concerned about his daughter's mood now, for fear that she would be unhappy and go home again.
"Auntie!" Zhan Xueting called in a low voice without looking at her.
Zhan Chen and Zhuang Xiaodie looked at each other and smiled, both very happy. This was a big progress. At the same time, the big stone in Zhan Chen's heart was finally settled. He had always avoided letting Zhuang Xiaodie meet his daughter before.
I was afraid that the meeting between the two would cause any unpleasantness, but the facts proved that all my worries were unfounded.
Zhuang Xiaodie glanced at Zhan Chen and Zhan Xueting, and said wisely: "Zhan Chen, I actually have nothing to do, so I'll just leave now. It's not easy for you father and daughter to be together." After saying that, she turned around.
After leaving, Zhan Chen didn't deliberately try to keep her, but he was faintly grateful to Zhuang Xiaodie in his heart.
After Zhuang Xiaodie left Zhan Chen's place, she immediately went to Tianjian Mountain and told her father the secret. Zhuang Weiye was shocked when he heard this: "You mean Zhan Chen's daughter didn't leave?"
"Yes, Dad." Zhuang Xiaodie nodded and confirmed.
"This is incredible, she is a strong person in the Yuanshen Realm, a big shot!" Zhuang Weiye felt deeply that this matter was important. As a sect leader, of course he first considered the interests of the Linghe Sect, so he said to Zhuang Xiaodie: "
Quick, call me Zhan Chen."
Zhuang Xiaodie shook her head and refused: "Dad, Zhan Xueting is obviously not willing to see us yet."
Zhuang Weiye pondered for a while, his eyes flickered, he raised his head and said, "In that case, I think we should try to maintain the status quo and let Zhan Chen spend more time with his daughter." But then, he murmured: "Maybe this matter
