At this moment, Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but freeze in place, her face slightly red, as she stared blankly at Ye Xuan. It seemed she couldn’t believe what she had just heard.
Although surprised and thought she had misheard she quickly recovered. Ye Xuan really seemed to have asked her to kiss him.
Was she really going to kiss him?
Ah, this...
She had never been intimate with anyone before, and now, this first time, she was to kiss the person she liked in front of so many people.
She couldn’t help but feel shy, but the next moment, she steeled her resolve. Opportunities like this are rare; even if she was shy, she couldn’t give up.
With that thought, she opened her mouth, ready to say something.
“Ha ha ha...” But Ye Xuan burst out laughing, saying, “Alright, alright, I was just joking with you. Anyway, now that the misunderstandings between us have been cleared, let the past be the past. Since everyone can have a good ending, why should we hurt each other?”
Saying this, he touched Hu Qianzao’s hand, intentionally showing a hint of disappointment.
“–!!!”
Seeing Ye Xuan’s expression, Hu Qianzao felt a pang in her heart.
She had disappointed him again.
Even though he had boldly said such a thing, she had...
Thinking this, she became anxious and then, without hesitation, she threw herself at Ye Xuan.
“–!!!”
Everyone in the Jade Fox Palace watched the scene in front of them in astonishment. No one expected the palace master to suddenly do such a thing.
Even Ye Xuan hadn’t expected it. After all, he understood that Hu Qianzao’s personality was somewhat proud. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept him hanging for so long in her story without really showing him any favor.
Unexpectedly, after his story ended, she had become so proactive. The disciples of the Jade Fox Palace watched this scene with mixed reactions.
As a high-born Nine-tailed Fox, the palace master’s status was far beyond what ordinary disciples could aspire to.
But, even though they couldn’t aspire to her, they inevitably harbored feelings of admiration. There were not a few disciples in the Jade Fox Palace who admired Hu Qianzao; seeing the palace master finally throw herself into another man’s arms, they naturally felt quite sour.
If this man were someone else, they might have been very jealous. But, since it was Ye Xuan, they felt it was only right.
Even more, they felt, thankfully it was Ye Xuan.
In this world, perhaps no one else could treat their palace master as well as Ye Xuan did.
Even they themselves couldn’t match Ye Xuan’s level of commitment. Compared to the complex feelings of the male disciples, the female disciples were visibly excited; it was great, fate was heartless, but in the end, it let the lovers unite.
They had seen everything Ye Xuan had done for their palace master and had been deeply moved. If their palace master couldn’t obtain Ye Xuan’s forgiveness and reconnect with him, they might all regret it for a lifetime.
Even the usually stoic Ren Bai showed a hint of relief. Although Hu Qianzao was not his daughter, he had watched her grow up.
Now, this daughter-like young palace master finally has her own belonging. His feelings were complex, but mostly he felt relieved.
Ye Xuan had sacrificed too much for Hu Qianzao; in his eyes, probably no one else in this world could be more deserving of Hu Qianzao than Ye Xuan.
Hu Lan even showed a smile like that of an aunt.
At this moment, it seemed the palace master had finally grown up.
Most people present were happy, except for Qingxue and Yu Ling’er, who looked gloomy.
“Hmph, really shameless, just a moment ago they wanted to hit and kill Ye Xuan, and now they are throwing themselves at him.” Yu Ling’er said somewhat sourly.
In fact, she hadn’t had the chance to do this kind of thing with Ye Xuan yet—! Because of the affairs in the Cosmic Cave Heaven, Ye Xuan and she had been busy cultivating.
Qingxue also said in a low voice, “Exactly... but we aren’t much better than her.”
“Hehe.” Yu Ling’er nodded in agreement with Qingxue’s words.
She was just speaking off the cuff; in fact, she could empathize with Hu Qianzao’s feelings now.
Because she had also killed Ye Xuan once.
However, unlike Hu Qianzao, she had hurt Ye Xuan even more deeply. Now she still had the chance to make it up to Ye Xuan, which was truly a blessing from heaven; this time, she definitely would not fail Ye Xuan again.
Why should she really make things difficult for Hu Qianzao, who was also sorry for Ye Xuan?
Just...
Yu Ling’er was somewhat puzzled as to why Ye Xuan alone could do so much. Clearly, so much had happened between him and her, he had died by her hand, yet how could he also have died by Hu Qianzao’s hand?
What was going on...
This was a question that needed a good opportunity to be asked of Ye Xuan.
Just as Yu Ling’er was thinking this, Hu Qianzao had already let go of Ye Xuan. She stepped back a bit, looking at Ye Xuan, her blushing face tinged with nervousness.
She asked in a somewhat guilty, soft voice:
“Is this... okay?”
Ye Xuan did not say much but extended his hand and pulled Hu Qianzao forcefully into his arms.
He was not a heartless man. Although those plotlines were arranged by him, he was also an actor in them.
Everything was experienced by him. He too hoped that he could be treated gently by Hu Qianzao.
He too hoped that from the beginning, he could just simply spend his days with the beauty in his arms, instead of dealing with all those falsities...
Even though it was a plotline he arranged, sometimes, he felt wronged. He really didn’t have to make himself so miserable.
But without selling misery... the system rewards wouldn’t necessarily be good. Holding Hu Qianzao tightly, feeling the warmth of the beauty in his arms, a system notification echoed in Ye Xuan’s mind.
“Ding, congratulations host, you’ve made the female lead Hu Qianzao, who originally hated you, feel love and affection for you due to guilt and being moved, completely reversing her feelings for you.
Reward for the host: Soul-Stirring Melody, any musical technique in this world, the host can master on his own.”
After waiting a while, Ye Xuan then asked, “Is that all? Nothing more?”
“That’s all.” The system replied, “This system is not something particularly powerful, please do not have too high expectations for system rewards, the best choice for the host to become stronger is to treat the female leads who are moved by you as tool people.”
“I trust you as far as I can throw you, you scheming system.” Ye Xuan speechlessly, “Am I, Ye Xuan, the kind of person who treats women as tool people?!”
