However, all the children they had were mediocre.
Speaking of which, her mother’s spiritual power had been one of the best, otherwise… she wouldn’t have suffered that disaster when Bu Yaolian was little.
“Why does a woman need strong spiritual power? It’s fine as long as she can make a man happy.” Su Shenfan didn’t think much about it at all.
If all beauties were as reckless as Gu Bailu, he would worry himself to death.
He liked obedient and sensible people.
It was fine if they were a little stupid.
“But only with spiritual power can a woman give birth to talented children,” Bu Yaolian blurted out.
Even she was startled after she said that.
If… If she had Su Shenfan’s baby, would it also be mediocre?
Also… she brought up babies for no reason – if Shao Zun was reminded of the fact that she might fall pregnant, and took precautions, it would be a disaster.
She secretly observed Su Shenfan, and her heart sank when she saw him frown.
No… No. It wasn’t like I said I wanted to have kids. Pretend you didn’t hear me.
Su Shenfan frowned. “If a genius can only be born from a woman’s spiritual power, then the man is too useless. Even if I marry a piece of garbage, she will still give birth to a genius.”
Bu Yaolian was stunned. Oh, so that was it…
It wasn’t because she had brought up having children.
No, that wasn’t right. It sounded like Shao Zun said he would marry.
“Are you… planning to marry?” Giving up so many beauties to marry a legitimate wife?
“It’s an example.” Su Shenfan didn’t care. He could have all the beauties in the world that he wanted; whether he married or not made no difference.
“Oh.”
Bu Yaolian jumped into his arms. “Shao Zun, take me to the imperial banquet. I also want to see the great white dragon that you caught. I heard that it was especially powerful of the two of you to be able to capture it.”
“Flattery?” Su Shenfan still didn’t know what she was up to.
She clearly wanted to meet up with Qian’er, and she was still flattering him.
“Hehe… Shao Zun isn’t a horse, you don’t have a horse’s butt[1]. Shao Zun’s butt is white.” She snuggled into Su Shenfan’s arms and touched his butt.
Su Shenfan slapped her hand away. “What are you doing? You didn’t get any last night, so you have an itch now?”
Bu Yaolian acted shamelessly for the sake of going to the banquet. Shao Zun was aroused by her seductive expression as she said, “It does itch… You can scratch me.”
“F*ck, see if I don’t do you to death.”
Su Shenfan rolled them over and pressed her down.
He had left in a fury yesterday, but halfway through the night, he had been thinking about her alluring body lying in his arms as she called out weakly for him to hurry up.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so quick to forgive her.
He really couldn’t endure it.
Bu Yaolian was shameless enough to seduce him. How could he let her go?
Bu Yaolian finally got what she wanted and could go to the imperial banquet, but Su Shenfan wasn’t happy when he watched her tidy herself up in front of the mirror.
“The hairpin you’re wearing is hideous.”
Bu Yaolian looked at him. “Shao Zun, why did you give it to me if you think it’s hideous…”
Su Shenfan’s lips twitched. When did he give it to her?
Why didn’t he remember that?
But whenever he gave a woman something, he would have the stewards at the Earthly Residence open the storehouse and randomly take out something – there was no way he would bother to go see for himself.
“You should’ve thrown it away long ago. It’s no longer worthy of you.”
Bu Yaolian looked at the crystal hairpin in her hand. There were quite a few crystals on it, which were especially dazzling.
When Su Shenfan had sent someone over with some items, she had loved this one the most, but never had the chance to wear it. It was just nice for such a grand occasion today.
