Chapter 437: I\'m Expecting

Cizhen saw Ye Guan\'s grimace and asked, "Feeling the pressure?"

Ye Guan nodded.

Cizhen smiled and said, "It\'s normal to feel that way. I used to think the same as you, but I decided never to overthink again. Overthinking is just too tiring, and I can no longer do that as well."

"Why can\'t you?"

"Half of me is divinity, while the other half is still human. If I were to suppress everything and re-establish the order and rules of the vast expanse, I would have to extinguish my humanity. By then, I\'ll become the vast expanse\'s public enemy."

"If that\'s the case, won\'t I suffer the same problem as you?"

"Right now, your humanity is completely suppressing your divinity. It is quite hard to get to where you are whilst keeping your humanity completely intact. I can see that in your heart, your loved ones are more important than your Great Dao," Cizhen said.

Ye Guan merely smiled at Cizhen\'s words.

Cizhen looked at him and asked, "So, are you willing to do what I told you to do?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes, I have no other path to embark on, anyway."

Cizhen blinked and said, "Indeed. Once your son becomes the King of the True Universe, the True Universe and the Guanxuan Universe will become your subjects. This planet is also part of your territory, so even if you don\'t go against them, they will still try and kill you."

Ye Guan nodded. "That\'s right."

He had no choice but to embark on his path; he had no other path to choose from, after all. Ye Guan was destined to be more than just an ordinary person. Of course, he didn\'t want to be ordinary, nor did he want to live an ordinary life.

How could he waste his life away and do nothing?

If my grandfather, father, aunt, and uncle can walk down the path of invincibility... Why can\'t I?

I have to become invincible and suppress everything! Ye Guan closed his eyes and vowed that he wouldn\'t be inferior to his elders.

Cizhen stared quietly at Ye Guan with a smile.

Just then, a young man suddenly walked up to Cizhen and Ye Guan. The young man sported a flat-top hairstyle. He wasn\'t "that" handsome, but he wasn\'t ugly either. He was above average in terms of appearance.

More importantly, he was holding a big bouquet of roses.

Ye Guan wasn\'t surprised to see the young man. Cizhen was just so beautiful that there was no way for her not to have any suitors.

The young man handed the bouquet of roses to Cizhen and stared at the latter with a sincere expression before saying, "Miss Cizhen, I—"

Cizhen grabbed Ye Guan\'s hand. "He\'s my boyfriend!"

Boyfriend?!

The young man and the stall vendors on the same pedestrian bridge as Cizhen were stunned. Cizhen actually has a boyfriend?

Needless to say, even Ye Guan was shocked, and he looked at Cizhen to find that she was smiling at him.

The young man hurriedly said, "Miss Cizhen, don\'t be fooled by his appearance. I\'m convinced that he\'s nothing but a pretty boy!"

Ye Guan frowned in dissatisfaction, "What are you talking about?"

The young man glared fiercely at Ye Guan and said, "Did I say something wrong? Was I lying when I said that you have nothing but your good looks?!"

"Well, I\'m living a good life," Ye Guan replied calmly.

"Fuck you!" The young man cursed. Then, he pointed at Ye Guan and yelled, "You\'re shameless!"

Cizhen started putting away her books and smiled. "Time to close up shop!"

Then, Cizhen pulled Ye Guan\'s hand, dragging him away to leave. However, the young man hurriedly blocked their path and earnestly said, "Miss Cizhen, please don\'t let this guy deceive you. There\'s no way he can give you a future..."

Cizhen blinked and said, "I\'m expecting."

Huh?! The young man was stunned. "Expecting what?"

"A child!" Cizhen replied.

Ye Guan was rendered speechless.

The young man\'s expression froze in disbelief.

However, Cizhen didn\'t bother to explain herself as she hurriedly left with Ye Guan.

Ye Guan cast a questioning gaze at Cizhen.

Cizhen smiled and explained, "Cishu\'s baby is my baby as well. Of course, Cishu\'s man is my man as well, so you\'re mine."

Ye Guan was dumbfounded, and he stammered, "W-w-what?"

"The four of us share everything. Do you have any objections?" Cizhen asked.

Ye Guan fell silent. Since you\'ve put it that way. Of course, I have no objections!

Ye Guan could only follow Cizhen as they passed by a store selling meat skewers. Cizhen bought a huge bag of skewers, and she took out quite a few bottles of white wine once they returned home. Ye Guan\'s head started to ache upon seeing Cizhen take out so many bottles of white wine.

"Sister Zhen, we don\'t have to drink. You can ask me anything. I\'ll tell you," Ye Guan said in a hurry.

Cizhen shook her head. "A drunk mind speaks a sober heart."

Ye Guan had no idea how to retort to that.

Cizhen opened a bottle and passed it to him, saying, "I might be leaving soon."

"You\'re leaving?"

"My book is almost finished, and I\'m leaving once it\'s done."

"Are you leaving to continue suppressing the Universe Tribulation yourself?"

"Yes."

Ye Guan went silent. Eventually, he opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, Cizhen waved her hand and said, "Drink, drink, drink! Just go ahead and drink in the meantime!"

Ye Guan stared deeply at her before taking a few swigs of the white wine. It tasted as strong as he last tasted it, but he was getting used to its strength and taste.

Cizhen stared at Yanjing\'s night scenery outside and muttered, "You\'ve gotten pretty strong, but you\'ll still have no choice but to eat the knuckle sandwiches of those Time Reversers."

Ye Guan sighed. "I thought I just had to deal with Eternal Sovereign, and that\'s it, but to think that I still have to deal with those Time Reversers."

Ye Guan shook his head and added, "I\'m starting to suspect that the Great Daoist Brush Master is targeting me."

"Pfft!" Cizhen burst out laughing and said, "He\'s not targeting you. Your identity is the reason you have to deal with so many enemies."

"My identity?" Ye Guan asked.

"Your identity has already decided your enemies in the future," Cirou said. She paused to take a big swig of her white wine before continuing, "I know that I\'m about to leave, but I still can\'t let go of a few things."

Ye Guan cast a deep gaze upon Cizhen.

Cizhen smiled and explained, "I\'m talking about my three sisters, especially Cirou. She\'s quite introverted and strong-headed. I\'m afraid that she\'ll do some bad things after my departure."

Ye Guan frowned upon noticing something off with Cizhen\'s words. In the end, he couldn\'t suppress his curiosity and asked, "Sister Zhen, are you going to sacrifice yourself to suppress the Universe Tribulation?"

Cizhen blinked and asked back, "What do you think?"

"I don\'t know, but I hope that you\'ll be okay," Ye Guan said after a moment of silence.

Cizhen smiled but did not say anything. She then raised her bottle and gently clinked it against Ye Guan\'s bottle before taking a few sips of the white wine.

"Sister Zhen, your cultivation base is still under suppression, right?"

"Yes, you\'re right."

"How come you never get drunk?"

"My alcohol tolerance is higher than yours, that\'s it."

"Have you ever gotten drunk during your time here?"

Cizhen was quiet.

"You should try getting drunk. It feels pretty great to be drunk." Ye Guan suggested.

"Really?" Cizhen asked, sounding curious.

Ye Guan nodded. "Yes."

Cizhen fell into deep contemplation. Moments later, she emerged from her thoughts and said, "I\'ll try getting drunk, then!"

Cizhen then quaffed the bottle of white wine in one gulp. Ye Guan smiled and did the same. The white wine was a bit strong, but strong alcohol was great for getting drunk as soon as possible, and it was a great catalyst for an honest conversation.

The two sat by the window and chattered as they ate and drank.

Ye Guan eventually started to feel a bit dizzy.

Cizhen was also starting to get drunk, as she had decided to get drunk today. As the two were getting drunk, they became more and more honest and unrestrained in their conversation. Sometimes, people truly needed to get drunk to get their frustrations off their chest.

"Sister Zhen, let me ask you a question!" Ye Guan exclaimed.

"Okay!" Cizhen exclaimed, nodding.

"Have you ever liked anyone?"

"You mean to ask if I have ever liked a man?"

Ye Guan nodded.

Cizhen shook her head. "Nope."

"What is your type of man?"

"I\'ve never thought of that, actually..."

"Why?"

"Because I\'ve always been busy..."

"Can you think about it right now?"

"Sure. Let me see... hmm, I think you\'re pretty good!"

"Me?"

"Yes!"

"Erm... It\'s true that I\'m pretty handsome and rich. My family background is decent as well, but I don\'t really have any other notable qualities aside from what I mentioned just now."

Cizhen reached out and pinched Ye Guan\'s cheek. "Well, your skin is quite thick."

Ye Guan chuckled and replied, "Sister Zhen, I know you\'re teasing me. Someone of your level will never be interested in a weakling like me. If it weren\'t for Cishu and Cijing, I would have been no different than a passerby in your eyes."

Cizhen smiled faintly and said, "No wonder Cirou told me that you\'re dumb."

Ye Guan was stunned.

Cizhen emptied another bottle of white wine and said, "Try to look at it from another perspective. Let\'s take Miss Su Zi as an example. You\'re stronger than her, and your status is more esteemed than hers as well. Does that mean you\'d dislike her?"

Ye Guan shook his head. "No, of course not."

Cizhen chuckled and said, "Same goes for me. I\'ve really never cared about status and strength. Considering the other person\'s status and strength will make it so boring, don\'t you think so? Furthermore, I\'m already invincible; do I even need a strong man in my life?"

Cizhen then looked out of the window and added, "Of course, you\'re right. I only met you because of Cishu and Cijing. You\'re their man, so in my heart, you are also my ma—no, you are my kin. Moreover, it\'s quite fun to hang out with you this way."

Cizhen then looked at Ye Guan with a smile. "You really overthink things sometimes."

Ye Guan sighed. "My cultivation base is far too inferior compared to yours."

Cizhen said, "It\'s normal because you\'re still extremely young. When I was your age, I don\'t think I managed to accomplish what you\'ve accomplished. Of course, if I were to be honest, I\'m not a big fan of how your father brought you up."

Cizhen paused briefly before continuing, "Too many parents are hoping for their children to be more outstanding than the children of other parents, so they\'ll end up having all sorts of expectations for them.

"They claim that it\'s for your own good, but they have never considered that what they had achieved at your age can\'t even be compared to what you\'ve achieved. It\'s not really fair for them to tell you to achieve what they couldn\'t achieve at your age."

Cizhen stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, "I think you\'re excellent. I\'ve never judged you based on my current strength as a standard. I\'ve been judging you as an equal since we met and even right now.

"When I was nineteen, I was just a big sister of my little sisters in Stone Village. In terms of both mentality and strength, I was inferior to you at that age."

Ye Guan lowered his head slightly without saying anything.

Cizhen turned to look at the starry night sky outside.

"Young man, once I\'m no longer around, please take good care of them for me."

Ye Guan\'s heart tightened at those words.

"Sister Zhen...!"

"Just kidding," Cizhen said, grinning.
