Zhao Xuanxuan looked stunned for a moment. She didn’t understand the meaning behind his words.
“Brother, what are you going to do?”
Qin Chuan didn’t answer her and walked towards Six.
Six was pleased with himself. He raised his chin and said provocatively, “What? Do you want to hit me?
“I’ll stand right here. If I move an inch, I’ll kowtow and call you grandpa.”
Qin Chuan had a blank expression on his face. He didn’t even bother to reply.
When they were less than a meter apart, Qin Chuan raised his hand and slowly pushed forward.
Before his palm could even touch Six, Six was sent flying like a cannonball.
SPLUSH!
There was a loud splash on the surface of the river.
“Let’s go!”
Qin Chuan turned around and casually spoke.
Zhao Xuanxuan was shocked. She couldn’t process what had just happened.
Why did that person get sent flying?
Did I see it wrong?
Or was it a supernatural phenomenon?
Zhao Xuanxuan found it hard to accept for a time.
She was stunned for a good three to four seconds before she saw the truth.
“Brother, what exactly is going on? Why do you have so much strength?” She questioned Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan didn’t evade her questions and directly replied, “Because I’m an immortal cultivator.”
“Huh?” Zhao Xuanxuan was confused. “Immortal cultivator?”
Qin Chuan nodded seriously. “That’s right! An immortal cultivator.”
Zhao Xuanxuan stretched her hand out to touch Qin Chuan’s forehead as she muttered, “No fever. This temperature should be normal.”
Then, she stared at Qin Chuan, “Brother, stop joking with me. I’m being serious.”
Qin Chuan replied, “I’m not joking. I really am a cultivator.”
Zhao Xuanxuan rolled her eyes at him, “Brother, I think you must have watched too much television. We must believe in science.
“There are no cultivators in this world. If there are, then what were they doing during the time of the world wars?
“How come they didn’t show up then?”
Qin Chuan didn’t know how to refute her words.
He wasn’t sure if there really were immortal cultivators in this world.
But, he could be certain about one thing: he was a genuine immortal cultivator, and there were also a group of old men and women who could testify for him.
At this thought, Qin Chuan considered bringing Zhao Xuanxuan to his sect to take a look.
Once she went to the sect, she would definitely believe him.
But after thinking it over, he ultimately gave up on this idea.
Let’s wait a little longer!
…
Zhao Xuanxuan gazed at the river surface with many questions in her heart.
She naturally didn’t believe that Qin Chuan was a cultivator.
After all, he was someone who went to college. Cultivation was pseudoscience. It was all folklore—something from the ancient times fabricated out of thin air. There was no scientific basis for it.
But, how would she explain what had just happened?
“By the way, brother!” Zhao Xuanxuan suddenly started.
“Yeah?”
Zhao Xuanxuan said worriedly, “That person flew so far away. He should be fine, right! Should we call the police?”
Qin Chuan replied, “He bullied you so much. Why are you still worried about him?”
Zhao Xuanxuan explained, “Who’s worried about him? I’m worried about you.”
“Me?”
“Yeah! Brother, think about it. If anything happens to him, you would be the one to get in trouble?
“You must know that this is a society governed by law.
“In my opinion, we should call the police! ”
Qin Chuan stopped her. “That person is so strong. What could happen?
“Besides, he tried to hit on you and even broke your phone. He needed to be taught a lesson.”
Zhao Xuanxuan thought for a moment. “That seems to make sense.”
Qin Chuan nodded his head. “I think we might as well go to the shopping center to pick out a phone while we still have time.”
At the mention of her phone, Zhao Xuanxuan’s mood instantly fell.
“Brother, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t come out here, none of this would have happened.”
Zhao Xuanxuan really blamed herself.
Qin Chuan reached out and patted her head. “Don’t be silly. Who would have expected this to happen? Don’t blame yourself too much!”
“Mm, mm!” Zhao Xuanxuan lowered her head.
…
The mall.
Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan walked into a mobile phone store.
A salesperson immediately came over to greet them.
Zhao Xuanxuan took out her broken phone from her bag.
She inquired, “I’m sorry, but can I get this repaired here?”
The salesperson took a look and shook her head. “I’m sorry, but this phone is too badly damaged. We can’t repair it.”
“Oh!” Zhao Xuanxuan silently put her phone back into her bag.
She knew that there was no way to repair her phone, given how broken it was, but she still felt a little upset after really hearing it.
Qin Chuan replied, “I already said that it can’t be fixed, but you didn’t believe me.
“You should give up now!
“In any case, out with the old and in with the new. Let’s buy another one.”
Zhao Xuanxuan said guiltily, “Brother, I’m going to make you spend money again.”
Qin Chuan replied generously, “Sigh, you are my younger sister. Why are you saying all this?”
“Brother, you’re the best!” Tears welled up in Zhao Xuanxuan’s eyes.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan immediately pulled her aside.
“Sister, if you want to cry, you understand that there is a time and place.”
Zhao Xuanxuan rubbed her eyes, “I know!”
Thus, the two of them began to choose a phone.
This store had a lot of brands and many new products.
Zhao Xuanxuan knew about his financial situation. She did not choose the expensive ones but instead headed towards the cheaper ones.
The salesperson at the side also gradually went from being enthusiastic initially to being disinterested.
She had thought that a beautiful girl like Zhao Xuanxuan would definitely buy the trendiest and latest model.
But in reality, she was thinking too much.
In the end, Zhao Xuanxuan picked out a phone that cost about 1200 yuan.
It was fully functional, but the hardware could not compare to those expensive ones.
The cash Qin Chuan had on him was the few hundred dollars that Ma Qingxue had given him.
He had spent quite a bit of money after a trip to the market in the afternoon. So, he could only choose to pay with his card.
When he keyed in his password, his heart broke, but he could not show it on his face.
Beep beep beep beep beep beep!
He keyed in the six-digit password without hesitation.
“Your phone has been packed. I hope that you are happy with your purchase. Please come again!” The salesperson gave them a fake smile.
Qin Chuan took the bag and handed it to Zhao Xuanxuan.
Just as the two of them were about to leave, a woman in a suit walked into the shop.
Qin Chuan froze. “It’s her?”
The woman in the suit was Ma Qingxue.
Ma Qingxue also noticed Qin Chuan, as well as Zhao Xuanxuan.
When she saw how intimate Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan were, an inexplicable feeling of jealousy arose in her heart.
For some reason, ever since the time she got drunk, Qin Chuan would always appear in her mind.
She tried to forget him, but no matter how she tried, she failed.
But, she didn’t give up.
Ever since her relationship suffered a setback, she no longer trusted any man.
In order to forget about Qin Chuan, she took on cases like mad, hoping to numb herself with work.
This method was very effective.
Qin Chuan gradually faded away from her mind, and she had almost forgotten about him.
But today…
Fate played tricks on her. They had met again, and it was in this manner.
At this moment, Zhao Xuanxuan held onto Qin Chuan’s arm and asked, “Brother, do you know each other?”
Anyone with eyes could tell that they knew each other.
Qin Chuan didn’t deny it. “Yes, she is the lawyer I told you about.”
“Her?!” Zhao Xuanxuan was shocked.
For some reason, she suddenly felt a strong desire to win.
She tightened her grip on Qin Chuan’s arm.
Zhao Xuanxuan straightened her back proudly and looked at Ma Qingxue.
Ma Qingxue also looked at her.
Their eyes clashed and instantly became heated.
The cell phone shop was filled with a strong scent of gunpowder.
Qin Chuan sensed that something was wrong and patted Zhao Xuanxuan’s arm, “Erm, I’ll go say hi!”
Zhao Xuanxuan did not object. “Okay, I’ll go with you.”
Hearing this, Qin Chuan was shocked.
“You don’t even know her. Why are you coming?”
Zhao Xuanxuan raised her brows. “What if she becomes my sister-in-law in the future? We might as well get to know each other earlier.”
With that, she took the initiative to pull Qin Chuan over.
