Happy Reading~

Of course, it wasn't impossible for Wei Nan's stomach to grow bigger, though it was clearly against her will.
Fortunately, I knew there was no way Wei Nan would slack off in her training.
Just that alone assured I didn't need to worry about her condition.
After all, the fact that Wei Nan was a talented woman was undeniable.
Without further hesitation, I started munching on the skewer of at in my hand.
The mont I swallowed it, I didn't feel anything strange.
On the contrary, I couldn't help but think—was commoners' food actually the best?
If I recall, I had already tasted the food at Su Ling'er's estate.
Perhaps that's why I didn't really care about the flavor of low-class food anymore.
Still, as Hao Chen, I had glimpsed into so of his mories.
I knew… living as Hao Chen was sothing I could never fully accept.
There was even a ti he ate food straight from the trash.
At first, Hao Chen hesitated—should he really eat from the garbage?
But he rembered Hua Xingyue, the little sister he had to protect above all else.
If he were , would he have made the sa choice?
No.
I would've focused all my efforts on making money.
If I had enough money, I'd never have to eat trash again.
But still… the fact remained: I was not Hao Chen.
Glup!
"It's true. What you said might not be entirely wrong. I admit, spicy food gives an unknown adrenaline rush."
"I'm glad to hear that. That's why I want us to finish our al quickly."
"I know."
Ti passed, and Wei Nan and I finished our al.
I saw her about to head back ho.
And as for , I had no intention of staying long in Hazhou City.
Deep in my heart, I wondered—should I return to Wuzhou City?
If I recall correctly, I hoped the recipe I gave that old man would help him in his business.
"Two days… I think I should go back. But why do I feel this strange unease in my chest?" I muttered, confused by the stares I was getting.
Especially when I saw what the people were holding—I realized they might be looking at so kind of image.
"Wait… Did I miss sothing? I need to rember… When I was coming down the stairs… I think I heard a cara shutter?"
As if realizing what had happened, I froze in place.
Sure enough, just as I was about to leave…
I saw a familiar car approaching—one I could easily recognize.
'Uncle Su… It's really him. Damn it… Ling'er, why did you leave with this burden?' I cursed in my heart, recalling the words Su Ling'er had said to .
I knew she had wanted to protect her parents.
That way, she wouldn't have to worry about what might happen to them.
"Hao Chen, are you alright? I was so worried sothing had happened to you."
"Uncle—uh, I an, Father… What are you doing here?"
"..." For a mont, I saw Su Han fall silent where he stood.
I didn't know why, but he looked genuinely confused upon seeing my face.
For Su Han, the hatred he once felt for should've been unforgettable.
However, due to a mory seal placed by an expert above the Divine Sea Realm, it was impossible for Su Han to resist that influence.
Unfortunately, just as I was about to speak again…
I felt soone tug my ear—a sign that soone was truly angry with .
"Chen'er! Let's go ho! Mother was so worried about you!"
Thankfully, I didn't mind the actions of the woman beside .
After all, when I looked at her face, she resembled Su Ling'er a lot.
I could guess—this woman was none other than Su Ling'er's mother.
If it had been soone else, would I have let them grab my ear?
Definitely not. I would've been furious.
But thanks to her face, I managed to stay calm.
"I understand…"
"Dear, let's hurry ho. Our son is finally back!"
"…I know. I'll be there soon."
Within minutes, I found myself being dragged into Su Han's car.
I had to admit, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous about what was happening.
But still… there was no denying the fact that I couldn't just ignore Su Ling'er's parents.
"My son, you didn't run into any trouble, did you? Why didn't you co back sooner?"
"I'm fine. I just had a little problem. I was saved by soone."
"Soone? Who? Your mother and I would like to et this person."
Unconsciously, a look of hesitation crossed my face.
Deep down, I hoped Su Ling'er's mother wouldn't insist on eting the person I ant.
The truth was, I had no intention of telling them the full story.
"I'm sorry… But he told I'm not allowed to reveal what happened. He just wished for to reach my goal safely."
"I see… I'm sure he's a kind person. If you ever et him again, I hope you'll contact your father and ."
"Understood."
Honestly, I was truly grateful that Su Han didn't push for more details.
On the contrary, Su Ling'er's mother was clearly very wise and sensitive to the situation.
If I wasn't careful, I was afraid my secret might be exposed.
'There's no way out of this. My only option now is to return to the Su family estate.' I thought, no longer wanting to worry about what had just happened.
For now, I was focused on whether I could get through this situation.
I knew it would take ti for to adapt to being around Su Ling'er's parents.
But I was thankful—relieved, even—that they no longer rembered their daughter's face.
Even her na—they couldn't recall if they had ever had a daughter at all.
All they knew… was —their only son.
With that alone, I knew there was no way the Su couple could break the mory seal placed by an Immortal Ascension Realm expert.
Not long after, a large building ca into view near the front gates.
Sure enough, it was none other than the Su family residence.
From the looks of it, this place was far from ordinary.
On the contrary, it was one of the most luxurious hos I had ever seen.
"Open the gates! The Master and Madam have returned!"
Kreek!
At last, a few seconds later, the car driven by Su Han passed through the main gate.
'They're rich. A true high-class family. No wonder Hao Chen was crushed by Su Han. He was just a poor man,' I thought, unable to feel sad about Hao Chen's fate.
I had to admit—Hao Chen was the most pitiful person I had ever t.
The mont I entered Hao Chen's body, I was destined to bear the weight of his fate.
