Sometimes people are like that; to put it nicely, it's principle, it's persistence; to put it
bluntly, it's self-contradiction, it's just being idle. There's a shortcut right in front of them, and it's even the orthodox one; if they just take it, everything will be achieved, yet they hesitate.
Qin Chuan hasn't chosen the other path yet because as long as he's with Zhao Han for seven days, he hasn't strayed from this path.
If Zhao Han disagreed, and Qin Chuan used unethical methods for his cultivation, then that would be Qin Chuan's fault, that would be the demonic path—using any means necessary for cultivation.
But now Zhao Han is willing, and still not taking this path, frankly, Qin Chuan even despises himself a little.
You say there's a knot in your heart, but the knot has been untied, and besides, there's no need to dwell on that knot, just like when Yuan Su attacked.
It's the same; there are reasons, but where are the facts? You can forgive Yuan Su, so why can't you forgive Zhao Han?
Yuan Su for her innocence, Zhao Han for her brother?
Qin Chuan thinks, if his own family was being bullied, he would also intervene, so why hold a grudge?
If he's so preoccupied and bothered by something, doesn't that prove he cares a lot about Zhao Han?
He keeps telling himself he doesn't like her, but why doesn't he like her? If he doesn't like her, why is he acting like this?
Everyone has a love of beauty. Qin Chuan is a normal man; liking women is normal, not liking them is abnormal. The reason he acts this way is because he feels a little guilty about having too many women, a sense of unfairness towards each woman.
But what powerful man in this world doesn't have many women, especially those from large families? The stronger a man is, the less likely he is to have offspring. If he only has one woman, then the family line will surely die out.
This is one reason. So, since they are all men, powerful men will naturally have many women.
Shaking his head, Qin Chuan now knows that he and Zhao Han will definitely end up together. Putting aside everything else, their physical constitutions alone will.
This is fate, something hard to escape in one's life. Even if you grit your teeth and fight, you'll find it's all in vain.
At the same time, Zhao Han, who had returned to her place, was having a rapid heartbeat. She was a little worried about today; her situation was too complicated. The more she thought about it, the more blushed she became.
Especially what she saw and what she said, even now, thinking about it makes her face flush, but for some reason, she feels very happy. Her heart was pounding like a deer's.
This feeling is wonderful; she's heard about it in books too. After all, many people sing praises of the beauty of love, the feeling of being moved, and how many people are willing to sacrifice everything to pursue their love.
There are so many stories like this, even some fairy tales, all love stories, which shows how beautiful love is.
She felt some of it today too; that feeling is something that can't be replaced by anything else. When you encounter something like this, you must cherish it and hold on to it.
So she bravely took this step. Even if she fails, she won't regret it. She tried her best because she knows that if she doesn't try, she might really never have another chance.
"You really are my nemesis!" Zhao Han said softly, a shy smile on her face.
At the same time, in another courtyard, a young man was extremely depressed.
Zhao Hao!
He saw his sister with Qin Chuan today. He wasn't stupid; he could tell that his sister had fallen for this guy.
He disliked Qin Chuan, disliked him intensely, even hated him to the core. He had initially thought that stealing Qin Chuan's fiancée would bring him joy and pride, a sense of male satisfaction.
But now, he saw no such satisfaction. Jiang Ranran was beautiful, but compared to Luo Hua, she was worlds apart, and compared to his sister, she was also worlds apart…
Yet now, both women were in love with Qin Chuan.
In Zhao Hao's eyes, stealing Jiang Ranran from Qin Chuan meant he had stolen his beloved woman from him.
He deliberately spread this story, making it widely known, and he was proud of it. Many people gossiped about it, and Qin Chuan heard much of it.
However, Qin Chuan didn't care. After all, he didn't like Jiang Ranran and hadn't thought about anything. Zhao Hao was beneath his notice; his provocations didn't bother him.
But the slap in the face came too quickly and too harshly. Luo Hua, a goddess, publicly threw herself at Qin Chuan. She was the most beautiful woman in Chu Zhou Academy.
Such women are all actively throwing themselves at him; what is Jiang Ranran compared to that? They're not even in the same league.
Putting everything else aside, no one believes Qin Chuan likes Jiang Ranran now. Everyone thinks having the goddess Luo Hua is enough.
If he has other women, that man is sinful and unforgivable. That's why Zhao Hao lost face.
Regardless of whether the previous rumors about Hua were true or false, even if they were, he was just taking a used woman from Qin Chuan, whom he cherished like a treasure.
But now, the affair between Qin Chuan and Zhao Han has been completely publicized, and some have even confirmed that Zhao Han is a woman. This was learned from Zhao Hao, because she called her "sister," inadvertently letting it slip.
This has stirred up another storm. After all, Zhao Han is a goddess no less beautiful than Luo Hua, with a better family background and exceptional talent.
And Zhao Hao has become a laughingstock once again. Now he's done for, having stolen someone else's used woman—or, as Zhao Hao claims, he stole Qin Chuan's Jiang Ranran.
Actually, no one believes Zhao Hao stole Jiang Ranran, because no one thought Qin Chuan would be interested in her.
Now, his goddess-like older sister is with him. You tried to embarrass the Ran family back then, but who's more embarrassed now?
Qin Chuan was unassuming and low-key, not only winning over the goddess Luo Hua and Zhao Han, but also defeating Feng Shao and others.
He became incredibly famous, a prominent figure at Chu Zhou Academy, known even to many elders and teachers.
Many envied Qin Chuan; his luck with women was truly amazing.
Some of the academy's strong members considered using some methods, but the goddess Luo Hua's abilities were too strong, and they couldn't do anything.
As for Zhao Han, her gender was unknown. Some people didn't care about gender, since Zhao Han could be indiscriminate.
But Zhao Han was a member of the Zhao family, and no one dared to mess with her, especially since Zhao Han's abilities were unfathomable.
Now, it's clear Zhao Han is indeed a woman, making countless people jealous of Qin Chuan, wishing they could kill him and take his place.
Qin Chuan is becoming increasingly mysterious. Many people want to know his background, but they can't find out. As for Zhao Hao's claim that he came from a small place, people naturally don't believe it. Someone so outstanding is impossible.
