Chapter 386

Xiao Wanling suddenly reacted, her Spirit surging.

She looked at her best friend with burning eyes.

"Hongzhuang, you… you don't blame me?"

She had already prepared herself to be chewed out by her best friend.

Who would have thought that not only did she not blame her, but she even cared about her? Xiao Wanling wore a look of ecstatic joy.

"What can I do? Mother Su has already agreed. As a daughter, how could I possibly tear you and Dad apart?"

Xu Hongzhuang said helplessly.

"That's wonderful…"

Xiao Wanling excitedly pulled her best friend into a hug.

Being together with Uncle Xu, her biggest worry was being discovered by her best friend.

Now that she was discovered today, she thought she was dead for sure.

Who knew her best friend wouldn't pursue the matter.

The heavy stone hanging in her heart finally dropped.

From now on, being with Uncle Xu, she would never have to be constantly nervous about her best friend finding out.

As Xiao Wanling embraced her, a faint trace of hormonal scent rushed towards her face.

Xu Hongzhuang's delicate body trembled, and her heartbeat skipped half a beat.

"Don't be happy too soon… I won't care about the matter between you and Dad anymore, but you still need to restrain yourself a bit and not let the few younger sisters find out."

"Hongzhuang, rest assured. What I worried about the most was you, and I was afraid of losing you as a best friend. Thank you for your understanding…"

Xiao Wanling wore a deeply moved expression.

"If you want to thank me, stop taking advantage of me."

Xu Hongzhuang remembered how weird her best friend's looks towards her used to be.

Facing her now, she had no idea what she might be thinking.

Wanting her to call her mom?

Impossible.

Sensing her best friend's thoughts, Xiao Wanling patted her back and comforted her.

"Hongzhuang, what kind of relationship do we have? From now on, we'll just go our separate ways of addressing each other. I'll call you best friend, and you call me stepmother…"

Xu Hongzhuang's expression changed, and she shot a fierce glare at her.

Xiao Wanling smiled sheepishly.

"I'm just joking. We are still the closest best friends."

"You've been tired out for an entire night, aren't you going to sleep?"

Seeing her best friend looking particularly energetic, Xu Hongzhuang asked in confusion.

No way, no way.

She had never heard of someone getting more and more energetic instead.

"I'm not tired at all. I feel exceptionally good right now."

"Ah? Are you sick? Logically speaking, that shouldn't be the case."

Xu Hongzhuang was shocked and grew somewhat worried about her best friend.

"Don't worry, I'm not sick. Although it's a bit strange, isn't it completely normal since it happened to your dad?"

Xiao Wanling said it as if it were only natural.

Xu Hongzhuang couldn't help but think of Xu Hao's omnipotence.

Not only did he know so many skills, but he could also pull out delicious candies.

Dad truly was a magical person.

But no matter how magical he was, there had to be a limit…

What the heck is getting more and more energetic being together?

"Actually, I used to feel tired, but for the past two months, I haven't had that feeling at all. Instead, I've been full of radiant Spirit."

Xiao Wanling added.

What is the reason for this?

Xu Hongzhuang fell into deep thought.

"Right…"

As if thinking of something, Xiao Wanling said with high Spirits.

"It's not just that my Spirit has improved. Look at my skin right now, isn't it even better than before?"

"If I look at it myself, I just have a feeling. Help me take a look…"

Xu Hongzhuang focused her gaze to look closely.

Her skin and Physique had indeed improved a bit.

She also looked a bit younger than before.

Her charm had even slightly increased.

She asked in confusion.

"What is going on here? Could it be that Dad gave you another Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

"No, it's all because of being together with Uncle Xu. Turns out my feeling wasn't wrong."

"Not only does my Spirit get better, but my skin also keeps getting better, and I even grow younger…"

"Gosh, if I were to always stay together with Uncle Xu, wouldn't I stay forever youthful and live forever?"

Xiao Wanling was very excited at this moment.

She was certain of the fact that staying together with Xu Hao would bring benefits.

Xu Hongzhuang was left completely speechless.

What on earth is all this?

Forever youthful and living forever?

However, seeing that her best friend had indeed become a bit younger,

maybe it was true after all.

Xu Hongzhuang's heart fluttered.

Which girl wouldn't want her youth to last forever?

Immortality didn't exist at all.

But right here with her best friend, she saw a glimmer of that possibility.

Thinking that she could stay forever youthful just by being with Dad…

Xu Hongzhuang's eyes lit up.

She shook her head and quickly cast aside this terrifying thought.

She cast a speechless glance at her best friend.

"If you're not going to sleep, I'm going to sleep."

Xu Hongzhuang lay down to rest.

But she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

Her little heart not only didn't slow down its beating, but instead showed a trend of beating faster and faster.

A seed was quietly planted just like that…

Waking up in the morning.

Xu Hongzhuang appeared somewhat listless.

On the other hand, Xiao Wanling, despite toiling all night, was still full of radiant Spirit.

Having resolved a weight on her mind,

the smiles on her face were endless.

She really wanted to tell Xu Hao about this now that she had her daughter's approval.

But when walking out of the bedroom in the morning, Xu Hongzhuang had warned her not to let Uncle Xu know.

Xiao Wanling had no choice but to regretfully drop the idea…

Eating together.

Whenever Xu Hongzhuang looked towards Xu Hao, her gaze always flickered away.
