As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Li Che couldn’t help but burst into a smile: “In all my life, I, Li Che, have been upright in my actions.”

Then, rubbing his hands, he headed inside the restaurant.

The owner had prepared a dish of “Earth Three Fresh,” eggplants and green peppers combined with potatoes, drenched in a thick sauce exuding a rich aroma, along with a bowl of hot steaming rice with clear, sparkling grains, and a pot of Dragon Blood Wine.

“Wash your hands.”

The owner glanced at Li Che and frowned.

Li Che was speechless, then raised his hand and gestured, the rainwater immediately swept over his palms, then turned into droplets that shot back into the rain.

Li Che then sat down at the dining chair, beginning to eat with great relish.

For a moment, the tension between life and death he encountered in the battle with You Liqing completely dissipated, and all his muscles relaxed.

…

…

Winter thunder is rare; winter snow is the norm.

After two days of rain, the air became extremely cold, perhaps due to the added dampness of the rain.

The cold air, as if coming alive, continuously sought to penetrate the gaps in people’s clothing.

Dawn broke faintly.

In Yuan Dao City, Inner City.

Liuxiang Lane.

Within the small courtyard.

The courtyard was lively early on; Zhang Ya, upon learning of Li Che’s successful promotion to Fifth Elder of Divine Carving Ridge, became incredibly delightful, occasionally humming songs with joy.

Becoming an elder of Divine Carving Ridge, that status was nearly on par with that of an Inner Sect Elder; he could move into a residence within Qianyuan Divine Sect Mountain Gate, owning his own Elder Court.

Within the Qianyuan Divine Sect Mountain Gate, their family could be reunited.

To see Xi Xi every day, to witness the growth of their daughter.

“Hubby, how does this coat look on me?”

Zhang Ya held up a big coat, smiling while gesturing with it on her body.
