Chương 678: Chapter 676: For the Rest of My Life, Let Me Love You - 1
Leaving the abode of the Life Goddess, Xu Ran sneaked into Bi Bidong's sleeping quarters.
Xu Ran knew the Life Goddess had started to harbor feelings for him, the most dignified ones often have the most unrestrained hearts. The Life Goddess was no exception.
However, he wouldn't frequently appear before the Life Goddess, instead waiting for the emotional rollercoaster to torment her to the point of desire and despair before showing himself again.
Distance is what creates beauty.
Moreover, if he were to constantly run over to the Life Goddess,
she might fall for him but then blame him for seducing her, leaving him utterly defenseless.
Ridiculous, how could Xu Ran do something so foolish?
He liked flirting, but he was no lapdog.
Xu Ran was just that awesome. Once he had the Life Goddess figured out, perhaps his reputation as the Divine Realm's gynecological sage would spread, attracting who knows how many goddesses.
They would look for him to have children, and then bear his offspring...
This... how risqué.
When the time came, all the gods might come to subdue him, although the goddesses would certainly be blushing.
Sigh... best to think about these things some other time.
He hadn't even won over the Life Goddess yet, so it was too early to talk about such matters.
The general trend was heading that way, though.
...
At this time, Bi Bidong resided in her sleeping quarters, rarely handling matters at the Pope's Palace anymore.
She had let go of everything, and if Qian Renxue became the next Pope, she would be overjoyed. She was eager to see Xue'er ascend to the Pope's throne with her noble and extraordinary demeanor.
And she had been waiting to explain everything to Qian Renxue, to clear the air.
She didn't want to hold back anymore.
Ever since she learned of Yu Xiaogang's deeds, she felt everything in this world was a lie. The only truth left was the bloodline connection between her and Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue was now her only relative, the only one worth her sincere attention.
Of course, besides Qian Renxue, there was another person... Xu Ran.
Xu Ran had treated her well, exposing Yu Xiaogang's true face and rescuing her from her misery. She knew Xu Ran looked down on Yu Xiaogang, but for her sake, to make her see Yu Xiaogang for who he truly was, he didn't act out of anger and kill him.
Instead, he made it so she could see Yu Xiaogang with new eyes, leading to her awakening.
She was very grateful to Xu Ran, and besides gratitude, she harbored other sentiments.
Even she couldn't figure it out; she wanted to forget Xu Ran's kindness, forget everything about him, but the more she tried, the deeper the memories etched into her mind. Every time she slept, closing her eyes, Xu Ran's image filled her thoughts.
She missed how Xu Ran held her in his sleep, how he was touchy yet reserved.
She missed how devilishly he disregarded her thoughts and kissed her impishly.
She missed how Xu Ran dominated the world, forcefully subduing Tang San.
...
Once she started reminiscing, she couldn't stop.
Xu Ran's image was persistently etched in her mind. Sometimes she was frustrated, as if Xu Ran were her fated adversary.
"I wished I had met you before..."
"If only I weren't Bi Bidong, what use is talent and 'Cultivation Level' in this life?"
Muttering to herself, Bi Bidong's eyes were a daze.
Sometimes she would mock herself. Although she was the Pope, possessing Twin Martial Souls, what of it? The things that everyone in the world coveted were not the things she yearned for. She simply wanted an ordinary life and to meet the right person at the right time.
Now she understood what love was, and she had encountered the one who truly made her heart race.
But it seemed as if the heavens were deliberately playing with her.
Making her meet Xu Ran at the very time she shouldn't have.
"Who says it's useless? In my heart, you are already the best, the most beautiful, irreplaceable," Xu Ran said with a smile, wrapping his arms around Bi Bidong's voluptuous body from behind—her slender waist and full hips made him feel very comfortable.
Bi Bidong was an exquisite beauty, even more glamorous than Liu Erlong.
He liked her very much.
"Xu Ran? How did you get here?" Bi Bidong's face froze, then it flushed red.
Her innermost feelings had clearly been overheard by Xu Ran.
She felt her cheeks warm; she had thought there was no one here. In fact, it was impossible for outsiders to be in her sleeping quarters.
It was only Xu Ran, this unruly man who roamed everywhere without knocking and now sneaked up behind her to tease her.
"How can I not come when you are my wife? I missed my wife, am I not allowed to visit?" Xu Ran said with a smile, his palm gently caressing Bi Bidong's soft cheek, affection in his touch.
"Who's your wife? Don't talk nonsense."
Bi Bidong puffed her cheeks. However, deep down, she thoroughly enjoyed this pampered feeling, having always stood above others, looking down on the people below. Could it be that she now had someone to rely on? She wasn't alone.
"Nonsense?"
"You've already been touched by me, aren't you my wife?" Xu Ran smiled, taking out a gift from his pocket.
"This is something I bought for you outside, I thought it would suit you."
It was a pink bow, filled with youthful spirit.
"Hmph. You didn't do this on purpose, did you? I am not a little girl, this kind of color doesn't suit me," Bi Bidong said with faux annoyance but her eyes sparkled with warmth and tenderness.
This was the first time in her life she had ever received a gift.
In the past, no one dared to give her anything. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but they didn't dare. To flirt with the Pope was an unforgivable sin, and no one dared to do such a thing.
"In my eyes, you are forever eighteen, the most resplendent flower blooming in my heart," Xu Ran spoke tenderly, seizing Bi Bidong's hand.
"Oh," Bi Bidong opened her luscious lips, but found herself unable to utter a single word.
Xu Ran's tender gaze shined like the most brilliant light in the world, making her feel a warm glow all over her body.
She discovered that she liked this feeling very much.
As if compelled by some unknown force, she didn't want to reject it.
She had contemplated many outcomes with Xu Ran, but at this moment, she only wished for a good ending with him. Irrespective of worldly norms, regardless of any interference, now she was Bi Bidong, and he was Xu Ran. The two of them were free from any other roles.
"Let me put it on for you."
"Mhm."
Xu Ran brushed Bi Bidong's supple hair smooth and then clipped the pink butterfly bow on her. Instantly, her already captivating face became even more alluring.
"Does it look good?" Bi Bidong asked, her head lowered, a touch of self-doubt in her tone.
When love arrives, any woman can become insecure, even Bi Bidong.
"Very beautiful, it looks great," Xu Ran said earnestly, nodding. Bi Bidong was already the most talented woman on the Continent, second to none. With unparalleled beauty and brilliance, she had ingeniously resolved the issue of cultivating Twin Martial Souls; her talent would leave a significant mark in the history of Soul Land.
"As long as you like it," Bi Bidong smiled bewitchingly, her smile making the entire room dim in comparison, leaving only her beauty.
"For the rest of our lives, let me love you."
