There is a kind of pain—heartache!

It penetrates the soul, tugging at the heart and ripping the lungs.

It makes you heartbroken, unable to control yourself, wanting to let go but deeply ingrained. This pain is not just pain; it is also very sour!

The mood when Hua Xian'er left, only she could understand.

Thinking back to that time in the bamboo forest, he fell into the hands of those two Heavenly People Clan members, and it was I who risked my life to save him; when he was on the brink of death, gravely injured, I endured the guilt of my conscience, letting go of the hatred for my father and brother, using my body to warm him.

Since then, I have no face to face my father and brother even in dreams, I have disgraced the ancestors of the Hua family.

And this person, to protect another woman, now does not hesitate to become my enemy.

Chen Nan, this is what you owe me!

Hua Xian'er bit her silver teeth, glancing back at Chen Nan, then disappeared into the distant sky protecting Hua Kuangdao.

Watching the direction Hua Xian'er left, Chen Nan was lost in thought.

He slowly raised his hand, holding a soft lock of hair, which was the broken hair Hua Xian'er had cut and tossed into the air, caught by him.

"Fate plays with people; you and I are back to the beginning."

Chen Nan sighed, feeling somewhat guilty.

He did not know how Hua Xian'er saved him that time in the bamboo forest when he was unconscious, or else he would feel even more guilty.

Fang Jingshan strode to Chen Nan's front, cupped his hand and said: "Brother Chen, if it weren't for your righteous action today, my Sword Sect would have faced unavoidable disaster. On behalf of everyone in Sky Sword Sect, I thank you."

Chen Nan turned to look at him, smiled slightly, said nothing.

If it weren't for Gongsun Yudie forcing with her life, he wouldn't have said a word for Sky Sword Sect today.

"Yu Die, come with me." Chen Nan said seriously.

Gongsun Yudie hesitated for a moment, looked at Chen Nan and asked: "The conditions I gave you before, can you fulfill them now?"

Chen Nan shook his head.

The vast waters, yet hard to choose a single dip; for him, it's too difficult!

"Then there's no need to say more, I won't leave." Gongsun Yudie, watching him, pondered for a while, then said: "I can see the deep relationship between you and Hua Xian'er, I know today's matter makes you very difficult, but I can't help it, I hope you can forgive."

"You needn't take it to heart, I don't blame you." Chen Nan reached out to touch her cheek.

Gongsun Yudie grasped his hand, shook her head, and said: "Since you can't be devoted to me, in front of everyone, it's better for us to maintain some distance."

Chen Nan said: "What's there to maintain? Who doesn't know you are the mother of my child?"

Gongsun Yudie shook her head and went towards the mountain gate.

Clearly wanting to avoid everyone's sight, as she walked, she said: "I just forced you with death, indeed used your feelings for me. But if you can't be devoted to me, I still won't go with you; even if you say I'm ungrateful, I admit it."

"I said, I don't blame you for this. Someday, I will make you willingly go with me."

"Maybe." Gongsun Yudie said.

Chen Nan looked at her now larger belly: "Looks like this little one has grown quite a bit during this time."

Gongsun Yudie smiled and said: "I've already consumed a tenth of that large pile of spiritual medicine you gave me. If he doesn't grow fast, how would he be worthy of that spirit essence?"

"It's been a year, and who knows how much longer until he's born."

Gongsun Yudie spread her hands: "Even Heaven probably doesn't know, this little guy is very extraordinary."

By now, the two had left everyone's sight, and Chen Nan, touching her belly, could clearly feel the presence of the little life inside: "Come on out, little rascal, when you grow up, dad will take you to pick up girls."

The little one immediately kicked lightly in the belly to respond.

Gongsun Yudie angrily glared at Chen Nan: "You bad guy, he can understand you, can't you educate your son properly!"

Chen Nan helplessly said: "If my son, Chen Nan's boy, can't pick up girls, wouldn't that be a laughing stock?"

The little guy kicked twice more in agreement with Chen Nan's words.

Gongsun Yudie was almost speechless, rolling her eyes at Chen Nan, she touched her belly and said: "You little rascal, don't listen to this flirtatious man. Or else, mom will stop eating spirit essence from today, leaving you hungry."

The little one kicked gently in protest.

After that, he no longer responded to Chen Nan's words, only agreed with what Gongsun Yudie said.

Chen Nan was left speechless, this little guy, although not yet born, his intelligence, is probably higher than those few-year-old kids.

...

The sun set in the west, the blood-red setting sun hanging on the horizon.

Chen Nan bid farewell to Gongsun Yudie and returned to Ninghai City, as for Fang Jingshan and that group of old folks, Chen Nan didn't bother to see them; if it wasn't for their excessive revenge, how would things between him and Hua Xian'er have ended up like this?

If they weren't Gongsun Yudie's elders, Chen Nan would even want to beat them up.

After returning home, several wives were watching TV in the living room. Perhaps because he hadn't been gone for long, or perhaps the wives were used to his sudden disappearances, they seemed relatively calm this time.

After dinner, he chatted with his wives for a while, then Chen Nan went back to his room.

Taking out the lock of hair Hua Xian'er had cut, the more Chen Nan thought about it, the guiltier he felt.

He knew very well that in this life, no matter what he did, he couldn't make up for what he owed Hua Xian'er. After all, the murder of her father and the humiliation could not be remedied even if he died, and today's matter, which made her cut her hair and break ties, leaving angrily, only added insult to injury.

"If only everything could start over again."

Chen Nan stood by the window, looking up at the night sky, feeling very heavy-hearted.

But at this time, a ringtone interrupted his thoughts, and when he checked, it was a call from Chu Wenrou.

She initiated the call to me!

Chen Nan felt a surge of excitement, pushing everything aside as he quickly answered the call: "Wenrou sister, it's your Brother Nan, do you miss me or do you miss me?"

"Will you die if you don't disgust me?"

Chu Wenrou responded irritably, then said: "Um, what are you doing now? Do you have time?"

Chen Nan quickly said, "You want to meet me?"

"So what if I do, can you be decisive, do you want to meet or not?" Chu Wenrou's domineering tone was palpable.

How could Chen Nan refuse, he said eagerly: "Yes, yes, yes, of course! You decide the time and place."

He thought to himself, Cheng Bingbing's martial arts training wasn't in vain, it seems that girl still keeps her word, sure to have said good things about me, otherwise Chu Wenrou wouldn't be so proactive.

Chu Wenrou couldn't help but chuckle: "I'm just inviting you for a meal, is it worth being this excited? Come to my house now."
