Chapter 618 - 618 No Need to Beat Around the Bush
618 No Need to Beat Around the Bush
Qian Yizheng and Qian Yirong exchanged glances and saw helplessness in each other’s eyes.
Although they were children, did they look that gullible?
“Uncle Gong, you should go on your own. Brother and I have to cultivate. We’re not like you. It’s fine if you don’t cultivate. You don’t have to protect a mother. We are children who have a mother to protect.”
“That’s right, that’s right. We have to cultivate diligently. We have to protect Mother in the future, unlike you. It’s fine even if you’re unmotivated to improve.”
!!
Gong Cheng was confused.
Unmotivated to improve?! Is this how I look to the two boys? How am I unmotivated to improve? Where? Where!
I’m honestly very busy during the day. Can’t you see I’m so busy even with my painted face?
I would rush back to my tent at night after eating at Second Brother’s house every day and work diligently at cultivating, okay?
I’m already working so hard. How am I unmotivated to improve?
Moreover, the two children are the ones who said I’m unmotivated to improve. That sounds like they’re looking down on me! Two children are looking down on me!
How am I supposed to tolerate this?
“Hehe, Zheng’er, Rong’er, you probably don’t know this, right? Meditation and cultivation are usually done at night. During the day, you have to go out and fight demonic beasts to consolidate the Original Soul energy in your body.”
In reality, he had no choice but to tolerate it. He resisted the urge to retort and looked at them with a smile.
“So, I’ll bring you to fight them! I’m going to a place with demonic beasts now. Do you want to come?”
Qian Yirong tilted his head and asked, “Uncle Gong, are we really going there to fight demonic beasts and not be beaten up by them?”
They had just started cultivating Original Soul energy. They would be food for the demonic beasts, according to their mother, given how little Original Soul energy they had.
“Uh!” Gong Cheng was successfully rendered speechless.
He could not help but wonder if these two children were born to jinx him.
“How can that be? Uncle Yan Qin and the others will protect you when we reach the swamp,” he said quickly.
“Then why didn’t you say so? You’re inviting us over to cause trouble for Uncle Yan Qin.” Qian Yizheng spread his hands in front of him, stuffing Gong Cheng’s words back into his mouth again.
Gong Cheng was crying on the inside. Why was coaxing a child so difficult now?
“How are you causing trouble? You still have Warrior-Servant One and Warrior-Servant Two. With them around, who would dare say that you’re causing trouble? You’re clearly there to help.”
The two boys looked at each other and shrugged.
“Uncle Gong, you can actually say it directly. There’s no need to beat around the bush,” Qian Yizheng said seriously as he turned around to look at Gong Cheng.
“What?” Gong Cheng did not know how he was beating around the bush.
Is it wrong for me to want to bring the two children out to broaden their horizons? Also, how am I beating around the bush? Isn’t what I said the truth?
“Do you want to borrow Warrior-Servant One or Warrior-Servant Two? Actually, my brother and I are cultivating in our tent. We only need one to stay with us. You don’t have to talk to us so vaguely. We’re still young. There are some things we don’t understand.”
