Immortality? Nah, I choose to marry instead!

Chapter 11: Quanzhi runs away



"How did it happen so fast?"

-Quanzhi was no longer able to keep her calm, bewilderedness was written all over her face.

Seeing her sudden reaction, I was a little taken aback.

"What happened? Why are you reacting so strongly?"

-I knew something was amiss.

"Didn't you receive my marriage invitation I sent to the sect?"

This time it was Quanzhi's turn to be surprised,

"You sent an invitation?"

"Yeah! I sent my marriage invitations to you, Xenia and Sect master along with some other guys I used to talk to."

"But sadly no one came."

-There was a little sadness in my tone.

Seeing me aggrieved, Quanzhi hastily shook her hands,

"No, Noo!"

"Trust me, I never received your invitation and neither did Xenia. We have such a good relationship with you. Why would we not come to your marriage?"

-Quanzhi quickly tried to explain everything in one go. She was afraid that her not coming to his marriage perhaps was one of reasons they were growing apart.

Hearing her words, I knew someone did something…

"Since I sent the invitation and it was received at the sect then why did you guys not receive it?"

-I didn't speak further, Quanzhi was not dumb, she understood my intentions.

"Don't worry, as soon as I go back, I will investigate who was responsible for the disappearance of your marriage invitations."

-Quanzhi spoke strongly.

"It's okay, At Least now the misunderstanding between us is cleared."

-Quanzhi's cheeks turned slightly red seeing Shenshah's bright smile.

She then looked at Saharika, who was looking at her from the beginning quietly.

"Since you are my brother's wife, it would be rude if I didn't give you anything on our first-meeting."

From her vibrant-violet-coloured spatial ring, Quanzhi took out some beautiful clothes and presented them in front of Saharika.

Seeing such beautiful dresses in front of her, she subconsciously looked towards Shenshah.

Seeing her hesitant gaze, I nodded.

Getting a green signal from her husband, Saharika politely accepted the dresses.

"Thank you Miss Qunazhi for your presen!"

Quanzhi had to admit when she saw Saharika looking at her husband to ask for his affirmation before accepting her gifts, she felt sour.

'No wonder Shenshah likes her. She is so obedient and virtuous.'

Sighs~

'Maybe it's fate, if I was a little confident and had confessed to Shenshah earlier, could I have been the one in her place?'

-Quanzhi could only hide her feelings deep within her heart.

But after all, she was not perfect~

When Quanzhi's eyes fell on Saharika's hands lightly stroking her slightly-bulged belly, her eyes were a little lost for a second.

As a sensible woman, this fleeting moment was instantly captured by Saharika.

Suddenly, Quanzhi's lips arched up as she realized something.

"Hmmmph?"

"Shenshah, your cultivation base increased?"

-Quanzhi got up from her seat and shouted excitedly.

"Yeah, I got a sudden enlightenment and broke through."

"It was pure luck."

-I replied feeling a little embarrassed by her huge shouting.

"This is great!"

Quanzhi's eyes were gleaming with happiness.

"Everyone used to mock you saying that you would always be stuck at the third stage of Qi-gathering."

"Let's go back to the sect, they will gnash their teeth when they see your aura is almost touching the sixth stage of Qi-gathering."

"And, not to forget you can also claim the sect's rewards for breaking through."

-Unable to hide her emotions, she came close to Shenshah and grabbed his hands as if wanting to instantly drag him to the sect.

"Quanzhi!"

-Hearing my stern voice, her body shook.

"Quanzhi, I have already left the sect."

I repeated my words slowly.

"I feel happy with my current life."

"Without any tension to fight for resources, without any fear of failing people's expectations, without any obligations to perform the sect's duties, this chill life you spend with your loved ones…"

I looked at Saharika dotingly,

"I don't think I can leave this and go back."

Feeling her husband's affection for her, Saharika's heart was full of sweetness~

Not to lose out, she too looked at him tenderly. Her eyes were full of mist, if Quanzhi was not present she would have jumped in his embrace.

Hearing my words full of determination & self-realization, and seeing the couple's boldly showing their love,

Quanzhi's hands, which were strongly grasping Shenshah's hands, lost their strength and fell down.

She kept her head down, she didn't know why there were some tears in the corner of her eyes.

She didn't want Shenshah or Saharika to see such a face of hers.

'Why can't I control my emotions? Even the sect master told me that Shenshah's talent is at the bottom. He broke through just by a fluke of luck.'

'I am destined to reach heights and will live for thousands of years while with his current realm, he can barely live for 150 years. If I fell for him so badly then I will cry when he grows old and leaves me.'

'Even if I have feelings for him, I must bury them deep in my heart. We are not destined to be together.'

"Yeah, you are right."

"She is already pregnant."

-In a shaky voice, full of resentment, Quanzhi still did not dare lift her head.

"Okay, I just remembered that I have some urgent business. I will come next time."

-Without waiting for Shensha's reply, Quanzhi hastily turned around and started walking towards the door.

Seeing her turbulent emotions, for a second I wanted to stop her but in the end, I didn't say anything….eventually the door closed as she left without even saying goodbye.

"That girl has a big crush on you…but."

-Saharika, who had grasped the situation, sighed before once again turning quiet.

"Yeah."

-I agreed with Saharika.

"But she is too scared to face her heart."

"Her ambition and emotional feelings…."

"….she is entangled between the two not knowing what to choose, only helplessly moving forward in the end."

"Let's go inside our room and do what we were about to do."

Hearing my words, Saharika blushed.

Looking at her rosy face, I chuckled.

"Did you think with her visit you will be safe today?"

"You have already burned the fire inside so be responsible for it."

-I tightly held her soft hands as I dragged Saharika to our room.

What's the point of marrying such a sincere girl if you don't enjoy it to your heart's fullest?
