A long time passed, and Chen Chao felt that it had been a long time anyway, because he had been listening to the sound of the flowing water for a long time, and it seemed as if everything was silent.

But the sobbing sound of the girl beside him was very real.

Chen Chao joked and said, "Did you suffer some kind of bullying in the mountains? Or are you angry that I took so long to come see you?"

Zhu Xia ignored him at all.

Chen Chao sighed silently, it would have been nice if he had bought some candied dates and other things to eat when he left Shendu, but now that he was empty-handed, it was hard to say anything.

Chen Chaogang was about to speak again, and Zhu Xia suddenly asked, "When did it happen?"

"Um?"

Chen Chao was startled, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Zhu Xia must know how he knew about his murder of Yin Li, so he asked this question.

She should still be worried about him.

"It's not like I've been thinking about it for a long time. I just have to do a lot of things after His Majesty leaves, so I just want to do this first."

Chen Chao nodded, feeling a little impressed with himself that he had really accomplished this.

"There are so many things to do, but you are not in a hurry, so you just do this first?"

Zhu Xia stared at Chen Chao, wondering why she didn't see that he was such a person at first.

Chen Chao said of course, "This matter is so important, and the benefits will be immense after doing it. Of course we have to do it. The longer we delay, the more trouble we will have. Besides, time waits for no one."

"You...shameless!"

Zhu Xia glared at Chen Chao, but he was more aggrieved than angry.

She didn't know what she was wronged about, but she didn't know why. She obviously knew that he liked Sister Xie, and now they were just one step closer, but she just felt wronged and angry.

Chen Chao thought about it seriously, thinking that he had made so many calculations and sent so many spies to Chixin Temple, so he could probably be considered shameless?

"Although it is a bit disgraceful, in order to achieve the goal, this is the only way."

Chen Chao sighed with emotion, "It's dangerous."

Zhu Xia said nothing, feeling aggrieved.

Chen Chao smiled and said, "What are you worried about? Am I still alive?"

"I wish you were dead."

Zhu Xia stared at Chen Chao in front of him.

Chen Chao didn't speak, always feeling weird, but I couldn't tell what was weird at the moment, I just felt it was abnormal.

Zhu Xia looked at Chen Chao, and her eyes seemed to have lost some of her anger. After a long time, she asked softly, "Where is your daughter? Where did she throw it? For such a small child, what are you throwing away?"

Chen Chao was shocked, "Girl?!"

Zhu Xia said angrily, "You came here with me and you still don't admit it?!"

Chen Chao was startled, and then he realized later that Zhu Xia had left in tears because he regarded the little girl as his daughter.

After Chen Chao figured this out, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Chen Chao glanced at Zhu Xia and asked with a smile, "How old do you think my daughter is?"

Zhu Xia frowned slightly and tentatively said, "Five or six years old."

Chen Chao asked, "How long has it been since we last met? Five or six years?"

Zhu Xia shook her head in confusion. She also couldn't remember how long it had been since she left Shendu.

She just felt that when they last met, Chen Chao was not so tall and his face was different from now. Now that they meet again, everything is different.

It didn't matter whether it was several years or many years. Anyway, in her heart, it had been many, many years.

Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Where are the five or six years?"

Zhu Xia pointed at Chen Chao and said in surprise, "You have long ago...ah, Chen Chao...you bad guy!"

Chen Chao's face turned red. Although he had thought about this kind of thing, he was pitiful. In his life, he would only kiss someone at most. No matter how many times... no matter how much... no matter how much... he touched... there would really be no more.
