Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 211 The Long-Awaited Ordinary Life

That night, the two shared a room and slept in the same bed, but did nothing until dawn.

After five years apart, they reunited. There were no overly romantic sweet words or vows of eternal love between them. They simply embraced each other and fell asleep, needing no further explanation.

As the first rays of sunlight streamed through the window in the early morning, Chen Xuan woke up immediately.

Looking at the beauty beside him, he suddenly felt a pang of regret. He really hadn't done anything that night; he had simply slept through the night.

"Am I a beast now, or worse than a beast?" he muttered to himself. It was a false question; no matter how he answered it, it was wrong.

Chen Xuan didn't move at all; his entire arm was numb. His arm was being supported by a small head. He wanted to pull it out, but he was afraid of waking Xiao Wu, so he decided to let her sleep a little longer.

The sunlight was warm, falling on Xiao Wu's fair face. Her eyelids fluttered slightly as she gradually woke up.

Soon, she realized she was using one arm as a pillow, and her cheeks flushed red. She quickly let go and hurriedly straightened her clothes.

"Don't worry, you didn't drool much in your sleep last night," Chen Xuan joked with a smile.

"Nonsense, you're the one drooling! I'm a fairy, fairies never drool!" Xiao Wu's cheeks flushed red as she pretended to be calm, but she was actually panicking inside.

Chen Xuan was taken aback, realizing his arm was indeed wet. He quickly wiped it, finding a sticky liquid on his fingertips, and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"That's sweat, it was too hot last night!" Xiao Wu's face turned even redder, and she glared at him angrily, a hint of threat in the depths of her beautiful eyes.

Chen Xuan was stunned. This scene felt strangely familiar, as if it had happened five years ago...

What was Xiao Wu's excuse back then...dew?

"You lazybones, get out of bed! The sun's already high in the sky, get up now!" Xiao Wu got out of bed, didn't even comb her hair, and went straight out to prepare breakfast.

Chen Xuan was speechless. He was the one who woke up first, okay? The topic was changed so abruptly.

He got out of bed, walked out of the cabin, and went to help in the warm sunshine. He didn't expose Xiao Wu, which was considered giving the child's mother some face.

A fire was lit by the lake, and a porcelain pot was steaming. Xiao Wu, dressed in pink, was busy cooking porridge and chopping vegetables on the lawn, though her hair was a little messy.

Her movements were very skillful, and her knife skills were superb; clearly, she had been cooking for quite some time.

When Chen Xuan took a closer look, his face turned green. It was all carrots, a whole pot of carrot porridge.

Isn't it said that rabbits don't like carrots? How come it's completely different for him?

"Chen Xuan, the porridge is ready. Eat it while it's hot, don't let it get cold." Xiao Wu ladled out a bowl of carrot porridge and came over with it.

Chen Xuan glanced at the wooden bowl, which was filled with carrot chunks and almost no rice porridge. Was it really edible?

Moreover, looking at the steaming hot rice porridge, he wondered how he could eat it while it was so hot; shouldn't it be cooled down before eating?

He was starting to suspect that drinking it like that would burn his tongue. He wondered if the other person was holding a grudge about him drooling and had deliberately made him a bowl of porridge as revenge.

At this moment, Xiao Wu's forehead was covered with tears, and she was looking at him with expectant eyes, which made Chen Xuan feel helpless. He wanted to refuse but didn't know how to say it.

"Oh dear, what a disaster!" He sighed heavily, then, resigned himself to his fate, scooped up a spoonful of carrot and rice porridge, and drank it down.

Then, he was stunned. It was surprisingly delicious. It not only tasted like carrots, but also had a faint medicinal aroma. It wasn't bitter; it had a very sweet taste.

Watching Chen Xuan drink the porridge he had cooked himself, Xiao Wu felt a sweet and satisfied feeling in her heart, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.

"It's delicious." Chen Xuan gave a thumbs up, trying to exaggerate as much as possible.

Hearing the praise, Xiaowu felt a sweet warmth in her heart and giggled, "Of course! While you were away, I took care of our daughter all by myself!"

She paused slightly, as if regretting something, and added, "Um... there's also Zhuqing. She helped me a lot while you were away, taking care of Qiu'er like her own daughter."

"Qiu'er, so this is my daughter's name..." Chen Xuan murmured to himself, then smiled and said, "What a beautiful name. Indeed, naming is something I should leave to my wife."

"You're such a chatterbox! Who's your wife? Stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Wu pretended to be angry and lightly flicked Chen Xuan's forehead to express her dissatisfaction.

In fact, she had already accepted Chen Xuan, and now hearing these words, she felt sweet inside, as happy as if she had eaten honey, but she just didn't want to show it.

She feared that if Chen Xuan got her too easily, their feelings would fade and lead to a bad outcome.

Chen Xuan was stunned, only now realizing what was happening, and stammered, "I was just teased?"

He discovered that Xiao Wu still had the same lively and mischievous personality as before, and even after giving birth, she hadn't changed much and hadn't become more restrained.

She had been under too much pressure recently, which made her less lively and active. Now that the crisis has been resolved and life is getting better, she is gradually returning to her original personality.

"By the way, does the name Qiu'er have any meaning? Was it decided in advance?" Chen Xuan asked, feeling that it sounded really nice.

Xiao Wu shook her head, a hint of sadness flashing deep in her eyes, and said, "It's nothing. The child was born in autumn and is a girl, so we chose this name."

Chen Xuan noticed a strange look in her eyes, but she didn't want to bring it up, so he didn't press her further. Instead, he asked, "If it's a boy, should we name him Qiu Nan?"

"What?!" Xiao Wu was both amused and exasperated, and lightly punched his shoulder.

Then, her eyes suddenly turned sad, and her mood became somewhat depressed. She said, "If it's a boy, I would name him... Chen Ping'an, meaning peace and safety. Chen Xuan, I really don't ask you to be very powerful. I just hope that you can be safe and healthy and stay by my side with the child."

"Chen Ping'an?" Chen Xuan's eyelids twitched wildly. He quickly covered Xiao Wu's mouth to stop her from continuing, because this was a name that was really not allowed to be spoken.

He interrupted, saying, "We're doing well now, healthy and safe. If we have a son in the future, let's name him Chen Fan, so he can either live an ordinary life or an extraordinary one."

"No, that sounds awful!" Xiao Wu slapped away the salty pig's paw, pouted, and said, "You have no idea how to name someone. I think Chen Ping'an would be a better name."

Chen Xuan felt a chill run down his spine; this was definitely not something you should say. He quickly changed the subject, saying, "By the way, where is our daughter? Isn't she in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Previously, he had repeatedly activated his senses, but had not been able to detect any connection to his bloodline within a radius of tens of kilometers.

"As for Qiu'er, I entrusted her to Zhu Qing's care. She should be in the Star Luo Empire now," Xiao Wu replied.

She thought Chen Xuan wouldn't survive and wanted revenge, to make the Spirit Hall pay the price they deserved, so she went down to join Chen Xuan.

"Don't do such foolish things again." Chen Xuan sighed and gently stroked Xiao Wu's beautiful hair.

He had already heard some of Xiao Wu's abnormal behavior from the Azure Bull Python, and now, putting it all together, he had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with panic, her small hands nervously clutching the hem of her clothes, not daring to look Chen Xuan in the eye. Clearly, her thoughts had been guessed.

"However, I still want to thank you." Although he didn't want Xiao Wu to do that kind of thing, Chen Xuan felt a warmth in his heart. It was really hard to find someone who would die with him, which proved that everything he did was worthwhile and there was no right or wrong person.
