That night was an extraordinary night, a night filled with ghostly wails and wolf howls!
All because of a sudden idea, a bold statement, Chen Shuo almost got himself into deep trouble.
Thinking back on it later, Chen Shuo felt that he had been incredibly reckless at the time, completely disregarding his own life!
How did he dare to have such thoughts? After a night had passed, early the next morning, Chen Shuo specially got up early to make Su Xiyan's favorite breakfast to put her mind at ease.
An exquisite family-style sandwich, paired with nutritious side dishes, milk, and chicken breast, not only achieved nutritional balance but also managed to be low in fat and oil.
Whether in terms of health or body management, this was quite an excellent nutritious meal.
After preparing everything, Chen Shuo went to wake up the sleeping Su Xiyan.
At this moment, she looked somewhat tired, with slightly puffy eyes. The puffiness was due to yesterday's crying, and seeing Su Xiyan's haggard appearance, Chen Shuo felt a pang of heartache.
"Get up now, I've made your favorite breakfast. Consider it an apology for last night."
"Don't try to sweet-talk me. You think one breakfast can make up for what happened yesterday? Let me tell you, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I won't forgive you."
Su Xiyan said, about to turn her head away in anger.
Seeing that Su Xiyan was still holding onto her grudge, Chen Shuo felt somewhat helpless. But what could he do? He had upset his girlfriend, so he had to comfort her himself.
"Alright, I've deeply recognized my mistake from last night. If you still feel unsatisfied, how about this: I'll take you to buy a handbag, okay?"
Chen Shuo actively apologized and showed his "sincerity."
Of course, this sincerity was actually something he had learned online. Unable to sleep last night, he had searched online for ways to cheer up an angry girlfriend.
There were many answers, but the one with the most likes and also the simplest was what he had just said.
Buy a handbag! It cures all ills! It seems that women can solve anything as long as they have a handbag.
Faced with Chen Shuo's words, Su Xiyan was somewhat stunned. She wondered for a moment if the sun had risen from the west: "What did you just say? What are you going to do?"
Chen Shuo hadn't expected that mentioning buying a handbag would elicit such a big reaction from Su Xiyan, but he could sense that it seemed to be quite effective: "I said... how about I buy you a handbag? Consider it my apology."
"Am I dreaming? Chen Shuo, you... even a glass rooster like you has come to your senses?"
Su Xiyan covered her mouth in surprise, feeling an indescribable excitement.
Wait, what? Even a glass rooster has come to its senses? Who was she talking about?
Chen Shuo looked bewildered, not quite understanding Su Xiyan's meaning.
"You said it yourself, no going back on your word."
Before Chen Shuo could ask, Su Xiyan pointed at him and said. At this moment, Chen Shuo's mind was still dwelling on the previous question. He had to understand what this so-called glass rooster meant.
"Alright, words spoken are like water spilled, I'll definitely do what I promised. But before that, I have a question: what exactly do you mean by 'glass rooster'?"
Faced with Chen Shuo's confusion, Su Xiyan looked at him, pursed her lips, but couldn't hold back and burst into laughter the next second.
Seeing Su Xiyan laugh, Chen Shuo felt the weight lift from his shoulders, but another burden was making it hard for him to breathe.
Until he understood what 'glass rooster' meant, he couldn't relax.
"I can't tell you! You'll definitely get angry if I do," Su Xiyan said, covering her mouth as she laughed.
"Angry? How could I? It's not like that, I'm not such a petty person. Come on, tell me."
Chen Shuo was really going all out now. He just wanted to understand what this so-called glass rooster was all about.
How had he become associated with a glass rooster?
"You really won't get angry?"
"I really won't. If I get angry, I'm a dog!"
Chen Shuo even held up two fingers as he spoke, showing his absolute sincerity. Only then did Su Xiyan relent: "Okay, I can tell you, but remember what you said. You absolutely can't get angry, okay?"
"Definitely, one hundred percent sure! How could a single phrase make me angry?"
Chen Shuo was full of confidence. In his view, there was nothing that could make him furious.
"Alright then. Actually, this term was told to me by my best friend. She said she had never seen you give me anything, that you're very stingy, don't understand romance, and are clumsy."
"Just like an iron rooster, but even an iron rooster can rust sometimes. As for you, you don't even say anything decent, so she said 'glass rooster' is more fitting because glass doesn't even rust..."
After hearing the truth, Chen Shuo was dumbfounded. Although he had guessed that 'glass rooster' wasn't a complimentary term, he hadn't imagined it could be this harsh.
That Cheng Xinran, she always seemed so easygoing and approachable. Who would have thought she'd say such things behind his back? Glass rooster? Glass rooster!!
The more he mulled over this term, the more indignant Chen Shuo became.
This was a major insult to his life. He could accept being called poor or stingy. In his view, he could take all that.
But to create a whole new term just for him? This feeling made Chen Shuo's chest heave, his breathing becoming more rapid.
"You... you... you're not angry, are you? We agreed beforehand that you wouldn't get angry. You're not going back on your word, are you?"
Su Xiyan noticed Chen Shuo's unusual behavior and quickly reminded him.
Chen Shuo hastily took several deep breaths, seemingly suppressing the anger that was rushing to his head.
"Who said I'm angry? I'm fine, absolutely fine. Do I look angry to you?"
Chen Shuo kept defending himself, but the more he did so, the more it felt like an impassable bend in the road, always stuck in his chest.
For a moment, it even made it difficult for him to breathe smoothly.
"You call me a glass rooster, huh? Come on, get up and let's go. Today, I'm going to show you that your boyfriend isn't such a stingy person."
Chen Shuo didn't even care if Su Xiyan had washed up yet, pulling her to leave.
Fortunately, Su Xiyan stopped Chen Shuo at the critical moment: "Alright, I've already said it was just a joke, don't take it seriously. As for buying a handbag or not, it doesn't matter. I'm not angry anymore. As long as I have you, that's enough."
Su Xiyan said, burying her head deep in Chen Shuo's embrace.
But Chen Shuo couldn't remain calm at this moment. The decision he had made was like water spilled: "Hurry up and get ready. I said I'd take you to buy this handbag today, and I'm definitely going to do it!"
"Come on, let's get ready to go!"
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
