Chapter 816: The First Miss is Not You (1)
She opened her eyes wide, An Yiqing stared in astonishment at her own reflection in the mirror, skin white as snow, her face like peach blossoms, a petite nose above delicate lips, and her eyes shimmering with light. The skin that was already as translucent as jade now had an enticing luster.
"How did I turn out like this?" gazing at herself in the mirror, An Yiqing exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that reaching the Late Stage of Innate Realm also comes with a beauty effect?"
"It’s true that martial cultivators do maintain their youth and extend their lifespan each time they advance a level, and they certainly look younger than ordinary people," Gu Yelin lifted An Yiqing’s exquisite chin with his hand, closely examining her increasingly refined little face, his gaze deep, "Tutu, when I’m not by your side, try to go out as little as possible."
An Yiqing was momentarily puzzled, but she quickly understood and glared at Gu Yelin with feigned annoyance, pouting, "You’re one to talk! You’ve attracted no fewer admirers than me!"
"Hmm, that was before. You’re becoming prettier now, and there are more wolves than meat out there. I have to take some precautions," Gu Yelin said earnestly, as if discussing a matter of national importance. Of course, in Master Gu’s heart, An Yiqing’s matters indeed ranked far above those useless national affairs.
An Yiqing looked at Gu Yelin, caught between laughter and tears, "Do I make you that worried? If it’s that bad, I’ll just cover my face when I go out." Saying this, she made a cute motion as if covering her face, looking charming and adorable.
The corners of Gu Yelin’s lips curled into a deep smile; he hugged An Yiqing and stopped teasing her.
"Let’s get some sleep, you’ve been restless for so many days. After waking up, we’ll go to your parents’ place for dinner in the evening."
"Mm, okay!" Touched by Gu Yelin’s thoughtfulness, An Yiqing felt very blissful, snuggling into his arms, she drifted into sweet dreams.
As evening came, the warm afterglow of the amber sunset gently streamed into the quiet and serene bedroom. On the white bed, the man and woman embraced in sleep, peaceful and beautiful.
