Chapter 1152: Don’t Mess With Women!

Don't Mess With Women! . . .

Cha Eun Xiao recognized the handwriting as Jun Yinglian's.

'Is this a coincidence or have you finally understood? Humph! You've kept me in tears for all these years. You didn't even inform me of your rebirth. You've concealed the truth from me for so many years... Take this as a minor retribution. It doesn't come close to expressing my anger, though.'

A bitter smile formed on Cha Eun Xiao's lips as he read this.

'Don't imagine that a few sweet words from your mouth will absolve you. Consider what lies ahead. Humph!'

'You've made numerous promises today. Remember them. If you dare break any of them... Humph!'

The following portion seemed to have been edited by Jun Yinglian, dissatisfied with her initial wording.

What followed was written in a more formal tone.

'I am truly delighted to know that you have returned to life. I am thankful for your presence. I value your concern. I am ecstatic at the prospect of marrying you and spending the rest of my life by your side. Finally, after years of anticipation, you are here. Nevertheless, my heart is filled with complex emotions. I believe it is best for me to take a few days to come to terms with the reality before we meet again. Please do not be concerned.'

'You are now a member of the Ye Clan. I believe it is inappropriate for me to involve myself in your clan's affairs. We have ample time from now on.'

This explained her temporary departure.

'Many upheavals in the martial world were triggered by your death. I will return home and await the day when you point your sword at the three factions. I will always stand by your side, whether in life or death.'

'Xiao Monarch of the chaotic world; Jun Yinglian of the vast realm. A pact is sealed beneath this tree; the mortal realm is now filled with warmth.'

Then came the concluding words.

'I will wait for the day you conquer the world.'

Cha Eun Xiao finally finished reading the letter.

He felt a profound mixture of emotions.

Cha Eun Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly at the revelation.

'Jun Yinglian did care about her position beside Cha Eun Xiao. It didn't significantly impact her true feelings, but it did have some effects.

It was normal for her to be frustrated with the current situation...

Before Cha Nantian's son was born, Jun Yinglian had helped their entire family. If she hadn't assisted them, Cha Eun Xiao might never have had the opportunity to be born... Now she was supposed to marry the young boy...

It was... no matter what... a ludicrous notion. It was inappropriate.

Jun Yinglian couldn't go through with it. In fact, even Cha Eun Xiao struggled to accept it after thinking it over.

It was... shameless and disgraceful!

This meant that the two of them were still unable to be together, no matter how deep their love ran.

At least, it was impossible for them to get married in the Qing-Yun Realm.

They would have to keep their love affair clandestine...

If anyone spotted them together, it would lead to a significant scandal!

Cha Eun Xiao felt his heart race at the thought of such a possibility.

'I couldn't be with her even if I wanted to. I'm free now. I can do what I needed to do with her, yet I still can't! Damn it! Heavens! Stop toying with me!'

What frustrated him the most was the enigmatic nature of women. 'Women, oh women!' He kept repeating these words in his mind on his way home.

He had to admit that he had never fully understood Jun Yinglian, or any woman for that matter.

Little did he know that what had nearly broken his heart was a charade staged by Jun Yinglian. Even though he was an expert at playing the part to deceive others, this time the cunning old hawk had been outwitted by a naive young chicken.

Jun Yinglian had walked away after securing several unfair agreements with Cha Eun Xiao, not taking anything with her.

This entirely reshaped his image of Jun Yinglian, and he felt fortunate not to have gone insane.

In his recollection, Jun Yinglian was always delicate, touching, weak, powerless, sentimental, and gentle. He couldn't fathom that she had put on such a grand performance to deceive him.

He couldn't forget how she pretended not to recognize him and fiercely beat him.

Cha Eun Xiao shivered at the memory.

'She is showing me no mercy.'

'How violent...'

In his mind, she had always been a beautiful, elegant, and gentle woman. But now, as he thought about her, he couldn't help but picture a scenario where, while sleeping together in the future, he would be suddenly attacked.

He even had an absurd thought of Jun Yinglian swinging him around.

'Awful!' Cha Eun Xiao shook his head, shuddering. 'That creeps me out.'

If Jun Yinglian were aware of his thoughts, she would undoubtedly be furious, though she might also feel bashful. But that might be enough to make his bizarre imagination a reality.

Cha Eun Xiao's imagination was boundless, and it was causing him to break out in a cold sweat. He kept repeating those three words in his mind.

Women were indeed mysterious and perplexing creatures.

As Cha Eun Xiao continued his journey, he realized that he had mistakenly underestimated Jun Yinglian.

He had never truly understood any woman.

He couldn't believe that what had nearly shattered his heart was nothing more than an act orchestrated by Jun Yinglian.

He felt humiliated at how he had been duped by the woman he loved.

Little did he know that he was setting the stage for future challenges, especially from his faithful golden hawk and a certain mischievous cat.
