Chapter 527: To embrace Cai’er (II) (2/2)

Cai’er let out a laugh, “Great-grandfather, you’re so jealous.”

At the sight of the smile on her face, Long Haochen’s eyes flashed with a faint trace of disappointment. He knew Cai’er just too well, and right for that reason, he determined from her facial expression that her memories weren’t recovered at all, and that Cai’er was still amnesic.

Cai’er immediately discovered his change in mood, and lowered her head slightly, “I am sorry, I just...”

She was not left the time to finish the sentence, interrupted by a sudden hug by Long Haochen, who interrupted with a gentle tone of voice, “No, I should be the sorry one. I did not protect you well. No matter what, seeing you again is really good.”

Cai’er drew herself closely towards him, with a soft voice, “I don’t know what my feelings were when I used to love you before that, but I am certain that I am still in love with you. That day, when you left, I felt like I had lost something important. Now that we finally reunited, I will go wherever you go. I will definitely convince great-grandfather, I don’t want to have to look at your departing figure again.”

Long Haochen fondled her hair gently, “Be at ease. This time, I am not only taking you with me, but we will also gather with the others, to reform our 64th commander-grade Demon Hunt Squad.”

Cai’er lifted up her head, surprised, “You have the permission of the Alliance?”

“I would say I have it. However, we will have to make enough contributions in every defensive fort. I think it should be enough for the Exorcist Mountain Pass. If not, we will have to remain for longer.

“It is surely not enough.” Right at this time, shadows flashed , and Sheng Yue reappeared.

Seeing him, Cai’er hurriedly let go of her embrace, and looked flushed, “Great-grandfather, how come you are back?” The instant they had just reunited was long past, so how could she not feel embarrassed?

Sheng Yue looked furious, “What’s wrong if I am back!? When I just left, I was thinking, what if after letting the two of you share a room, and meet again after a long time of separation, something were to happen due to the excitement? What’s wrong with me wanting to be the first to hold my great-great-grandson? But this won’t do. Sheng Yue’s great-granddaughter needs to be officially wed before bearing a child.”

“Great-grandfather, what are you speaking about?” Cai’er’s face became red like an apple, and appeared at Sheng Yue’s side with a flash, grabbing on his beard to pull it.

“Be a good girl, don’t pull, I only have this much beard. Your great-grandfather needs to keep some of his image in front of others. Fool, I am doing this for your good! Aren’t you afraid of being taken advantage of?”

This time, Long Haochen was astonished. Apart from himself, this was the first time he saw Cai’er so close to someone else. Although that was her own great-grandfather, he still clearly remembered about her repulsion toward him before her loss of memories.

Seeing that mark of affection between the two relatives, Long Haochen suddenly realized that he had been just too selfish. Wasn’t the current Cai’er very good as is? At least, she wasn’t as closed as before and a lot more affectionate.

Then he couldn’t help but display a knowing smile. Right! If I love her, I should think for her well-being, and not only think of myself.

Because the barrier formed by Cai’er’s amnesia finally started to melt inside him, he kept standing silently with a large smile.

“Brat, what are you smiling about? Let me tell you that you’d better not think of leaving before you stay for three months. I have already received the letter from that fellow Long Tianying. You cannot think of going back before amassing a million contribution points. Let me record your current count of contribution points.”

At the sight of Sheng Yue’s astute look, Long Haochen immediately showed a pained face, “Great-Grandfather, you can’t be serious! Three months is too long.”

Sheng Yue snorted, “Long? I think that it is rather short. If you can get a million contribution points in three months time, I will recognize your ability.”

Long Haochen became helpless, “But, Great-Grandpa, you are being unfair. You have promised to give me your help. Was there any sincerity in your words?”

Sheng Yue seemed full of complacency, “Right, I gave you my promise. But do you plan on using this promise on such a thing? Don’t think I don’t know what Long Tianying and Yang Haohan are planning. If you use the promise now, you won’t be able to use it again. Give it some good thought.”

“I...” Long Haochen cursed silently, but was helpless in such a situation.

Sheng Yue snorted, “Do you want to describe me as cunning?”

Long Haochen shook his head with a forced smiled, “How would I dare!? You are an elder, and all I want to say is that I trust your experience. You are really strong. But even if I don’t use the promise, you cannot be shameless on the contribution points you owe me. Today, no matter what you may say, I could be considered to have earned half of the contribution for Allocer’s kill. The Blazing Lion Demon God is at the ninth step and should be worth at least 500,000 contribution points, or even more. I want to claim half of it. Also, putting the corpse aside, the Blazing Lion Demon God’s Demon God Crown should be worth over 300,000 points. If I am not mistaken, a bit ago you wanted to send it to me.”
