Chapter 230 The Way in the West
Inside the clinic
Chen Fengchao and Ao Xi sat facing each other.
Dr. Chen used the excuse of making tea to avoid the topic.
Chen Fengchao looked at the woman before him, who was as beautiful as a fairy descended to earth, and his heart pounded.
It's only natural for young people to be attracted to someone.
In this life, Chen Fengchao was just an unmarried young man in his early twenties.
Especially since the girl had just said that he was a very important person to her, it's easy for people to get the wrong idea.
The two remained silent, and the atmosphere grew increasingly heated.
Finally, Chen Fengchao couldn't help but speak up.
"you..."
"you..."
Chen Fengchao was caught off guard when the other party spoke up immediately after he had spoken, and he panicked.
"You go first, you go first!"
Chen Fengchao hurriedly replied, his tone still somewhat anxious.
His silly appearance made the girl chuckle.
Her bright smile captivated Chen Fengchao, who couldn't help but stare at her in fascination.
Such a direct and piercing gaze made the Dragon Girl blush slightly.
She couldn't help but scold playfully, "What are you staring at, you idiot!"
Chen Fengchao blushed instantly after being scolded by the Dragon Girl: "No, I didn't see anything."
Under the pretense of making tea, Dr. Chen, who was actually observing from the side, felt a sudden pang of unease when he saw his son's expression.
"It's over, my son is finished!"
The woman's arrival was suspicious; she had no guards with her, and I hadn't had time to think about it carefully beforehand.
After leaving under the pretext of boiling water and making tea, I felt increasingly uneasy.
Although Yingzhou is not far from the capital, the nearest town is more than a hundred miles away.
If they came from other cities, why are there no guards at all?
These are not peaceful times; such a stunning beauty's appearance will undoubtedly attract countless hungry wolves.
This is completely illogical.
As for whether it was from a nearby town, Dr. Chen ruled out that possibility.
The military towns of Sifang could not raise such a beauty. If they had, she would probably have been sent to the emperor in the capital to secure a better future.
Dr. Chen recalled the strange events that occurred on the day Chen Fengchao was born, and couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Seeing that Chen Fengchao seemed to be getting involved, he immediately took a pot of tea and stepped in again.
"The tea is here! My humble abode has only a few sprigs of wild tea. Though the leaves are not beautiful, they have a sweet aroma. Please don't find them unappealing, young lady."
Doctor Chen calmly lifted the lid of the bowl, letting out a stream of clear spring water.
A few tea leaves tumbled and swirled in the tea soup, releasing a delicate aroma.
The Dragon Girl was neither loved nor cared for by her maternal grandmother nor her uncle in the Western Sea, so naturally she didn't have many opportunities to taste things from the mortal world.
Looking at the tea now, I feel a sense of novelty.
Doctor Chen deliberately poured the tea to the brim, which would be extremely impolite in the real world, but at this moment it became his way of testing people.
Chen Fengchao had been making house calls for more than three years and was well aware of these rules. Seeing the full cup of tea in front of the woman, he immediately frowned.
Just as he was about to offer a reminder, his gaze met his father's meaningful look.
That look was like a thunderbolt, instantly shattering any lingering romantic thoughts in Chen Fengchao's mind.
Pouring a full cup of tea is a way of saying goodbye; filling the first cup to the brim is a blatant way of saying you're not welcome.
If someone serves him a full cup of tea as soon as he arrives at a patient's home, he will simply turn away in a huff.
But the woman carefully picked up the teacup and took a small sip.
He seemed completely unconcerned about his father's behavior.
This is undoubtedly unreasonable.
The seven necessities of life are firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea.
How could a family that could raise such a beautiful woman be so ignorant of manners?
Unless they are people in the countryside struggling to survive, but how could they afford such luxurious clothes when they are barely clothed?
Chen Fengchao, without changing his expression, invited the woman to drink tea.
But they did start asking about its origins.
"Young lady, you're not from Yingcheng, are you?"
"How could Yingcheng possibly raise such an ethereal, otherworldly being?"
Seeing his son begin to test the waters, Chen's father quickly chimed in with a compliment.
After tasting the tea, the Dragon Girl casually replied, "I am not from Yingcheng; I come from the Western Sea."
"The Western Sea?" *2
The father and son couldn't help but exchange a glance.
The father and son had heard of his reputation throughout the world.
Yingcheng is about two thousand miles away from the East China Sea.
In the past, during times of peace, pearls, giant clams, and corals from the East China Sea were transported here for sale.
But the two of them didn't know exactly how far the Western Sea was; the book said it was ten thousand miles away.
With today's travel methods, it would probably take several years to travel thousands of miles.
A chill ran from the soles of Chen Fengchao's feet straight up to the top of his head.
The Dragon Girl is born holy and has keen senses.
Chen Fengchao's changes did not escape her notice.
She looked at Chen Fengchao and suddenly smiled: "You guessed right, I'm not human."
?
The father and son's pupils dilated in shock, and they couldn't help but exchange a glance.
not human?
What is that? A demon?
Surely it can't be an immortal?
Before the two could react, the dragon girl continued, "I come from the West Sea, and I am the third princess of the West Sea Dragon King. I am not a demon. However, I vaguely remember my past life. In my past life, I should have known you."
"A past life?"
Chen Fengchao couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Did they come from a past life?
What is all this about?
But the Dragon Girl ignored his shock and continued confidently, "Yes, it was in my past life. For the past twenty years since I was born, I've had the same dream. In the dream, I'm carrying a person named Chen Chunan on my back, and it seems that I have something to do with him..."
The dragon girl suddenly stopped speaking, her face flushing red.
Chen Fengchao failed to notice this detail, only hearing that it had been twenty years.
He was exactly twenty years old!
What a coincidence!
Chen Chunan, Chen Chunan, this name feels very familiar to me!
My name in my past life was Chen Chunan?
The consciousness in the Western Continent sensed the main body's chaotic thoughts, reached out and plucked a ginseng fruit from the ginseng fruit tree.
With a gentle tap, it transformed into a stream of pure energy, which flowed along the primordial spirit light connected to it towards Chen Fengchao.
This pure energy arrived extremely quickly.
In a short while, they entered Chen Fengchao's Niwan Palace.
In an instant, fragments of memories flashed through Chen Fengchao's mind like a revolving lantern.
When Xin Yuan looked at the memory that had been deliberately placed in by his consciousness, his face first darkened, but then he returned to normal.
"You're still not giving up, trying to seduce me to rescue you. But I don't think you can be counted on this time! Hmph!"
Xin Yuan turned his gaze to Chen Fengchao.
Having gained some memories, Chen Fengchao felt a sense of enlightenment and a yearning arise in his heart.
"My name in my past life was Chen Chunan!"
"Have you regained your memories of your past life?"
The dragon girl's eyes were filled with surprise.
But Mr. Chen was completely stunned and panicked.
"Fengchao, your past life is gone, why dwell on it? Living this life well and seizing the moment is the right thing to do!"
She only had one son, Chen Fengchao, in this life, and she couldn't let him go astray.
What past lives and future lives? These illusory things are nothing compared to this life.
This life is truly in our own hands!
Looking at her father's anxious gaze.
Chen Fengchao gave him a reassuring look, then said, "No, I'm not looking for my past life; I've found my path."
The Tao is in the West!
That feeling was absolutely right!
