The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1152 - 1151: Incurable

Tang Rao felt wronged as he was brought up by Jixing."Jixing is the consciousness of a high god. Once this consciousness forms an independent entity, it will seek a new host to cultivate. If the host succeeds, Jixing's future prospects are limitless, but if the host fails and cannot ascend to the rank of high god, Jixing will dissipate when the host stops progressing. It seems your Jixing has a keen eye."

Zhang Wang shared everything he knew with Tang Rao, and this revelation suddenly cleared things up for Tang Rao. No wonder Jixing insisted on bringing him to the Divine Realm.

This little creature, ostensibly claiming to help Tang Rao complete tasks and lead him to new development, merely wanted Tang Rao to ensure its consciousness didn't vanish.

However, Jixing deserves praise for its foresight in selecting Tang Rao from the vast sea of people.

"Tang Rao, I'm of the Evil Physique. Will it harm you?"

Li Qi Qi timidly asked.

Even though she dreaded facing this reality, for Tang Rao's sake, she finally summoned the courage to voice her fears first.

"What's an Evil Physique? How could it possibly harm me?"

He said this casually, though Tang Rao still didn't comprehend what kind of physique the Evil Physique was or whether it posed a threat to him. What was clear to him was, as long as Tang Rao wished to be powerful, no one could harm him.

"Boss, can I still speak?"

Tang Rao's earlier words nearly scared Zhang Wang to death. If he didn't speak now, Tang Rao would certainly blame Zhang Wang later for concealing the truth.

"Speak."

Upon Tang Rao's consent, Zhang Wang finally spoke up.

"The Evil Physique can assimilate those around you. Don't think there's no harm."

As soon as Zhang Wang finished speaking, Tang Rao slapped him.

Smack, Zhang Wang cried out and clutched his head.

"Boss, you told me to speak. I originally didn't want to say it."

Was Zhang Wang feeling wronged?

Tang Rao even considered slapping him again but realized Zhang Wang meant well for him. Although the words were harsh, there was no malicious intent.

"If it can assimilate me, I'll accept it."

No matter what Zhang Wang said, Tang Rao's heart was set on Li Qi Qi.

"Tang Rao, I want to go home now."

Li Qi Qi was low-spirited throughout. She initially intended to come happily, but detecting this Evil Physique within her dampened the mood. Even Zhang Wang's commentary on the Evil Physique was relatively mild; Li Qi Qi understood it better.

She didn't want to explain to Tang Rao how terrifying the Evil Physique could be, concerned that Tang Rao would then resent or fear being with her, also apprehensive of never being able to unite with him in life, unable to face such reality.

"Qi Qi, let's continue shopping."

Tang Rao didn't let Li Qi Qi leave alone.

If she returned alone to the Tingzhou Li Family, once Li Zhentong knew about her Evil Physique, her life would become even more challenging.

"Tang Rao, I can't harm you. Please let me go back, alright?"

At this moment, Li Qi Qi's tone was nearing a plea.

"Zhang Wang, tell Li Qi Qi if the Evil Physique can be moderated. Give her an answer."

Tang Rao felt uncertain. He wanted to keep Li Qi Qi, with the only path being for Zhang Wang to reassure her.

But as soon as Zhang Wang opened his mouth, Tang Rao regretted it, thinking, whoever should talk about this, it shouldn't have been Zhang Wang.

Seeing Zhang Wang adopting an expert's manner said, "The Evil Physique can never transform into a normal physique, only becoming more evil."

That was awkward.

Li Qi Qi shook off Tang Rao's hand, preparing to leave.

This time, she had truly lost hope. Though she and Tang Rao were happy together, causing harm for selfish reasons made her no different from a villain.

"Tang Rao, just let me go, please. Let's never see each other again after this."

Tang Rao still held Li Qi Qi's hand tightly, not allowing her to leave him.

"You slept with me and think you can just ditch me? Dream on."

In a moment of desperation, Tang Rao said those words. Normally, he'd never utter such a thing!

"Tang Rao."

Li Qi Qi was shocked Tang Rao would speak this way in front of Zhang Wang.

"I'll say more if you dare walk away, until you question life's purpose."

To keep Li Qi Qi by his side, Tang Rao was ready to say any shameless words.

"Tang Rao, you're shameless."

Knowing only now that Tang Rao was shameless, better late than never, Li Qi Qi hadn't witnessed his shamelessness before.

"Indeed, I'm shameless, and what can you do about it?"

Anyway, Tang Rao had set his sights on Li Qi Qi, and so what?

Of all the women he'd met, none were prettier than Li Qi Qi. Losing her would be a significant loss for Tang Rao.

"Oh."

Li Qi Qi sighed. Against such a scoundrel, what could she say?

"Zhang Wang, let this matter rest. No one shall bring it up anymore."

It's not a matter of fearing it - one never knows if someone might use her presence to interfere with Tang Rao's future, stirring up trouble.

"No, definitely not, boss, sister-in-law, enjoy yourselves."

Zhang Wang didn't stay with Tang Rao. Since Tang Rao's mind was set on enjoying life with Li Qi Qi, Zhang Wang felt he should worry about the Evil Physique issue on his behalf as the boss.

After Tang Rao and Li Qi Qi left Kao Shan Shop, she was visibly less happy than when she arrived. After all, who wouldn't find it hard to smile after experiencing such events?

"Qi Qi, nobody can definitively say whether the Evil Physique can be moderated. I'll help you find out when I can. What if there's a chance for moderation?"

This would be the best outcome, Tang Rao knew, trusting Zhang Wang was speaking rationally.

"Tang Rao, let's go back. I don't want to overthink it anymore."

Wandering aimlessly with Tang Rao in the street only made Li Qi Qi more anxious. She even felt every glance at Tang Rao was a luxury.

"Very well, it's been a while since visiting the Li Family. Should I take you back to see them?"

Li Qi Qi nodded, as her childhood home was the only place that could bring a sense of security when feeling down.

On Li Qi Qi's little island, hardly anyone was present nowadays. At most, servants came occasionally to do cleaning, mostly for show; they feared catching any illnesses from her. Although her sickness had been cured, the psychological shadow remained, causing continued fears.

"Over the years, watching the Tingzhou Li Family go from prosperity to decline, wouldn't you have any reflections to share?"

Making fun of the situation, Tang Rao jested with Li Qi Qi, who looked around the island's landscape with hollow eyes, her thoughts unknown.

"Qi Qi, Qi Qi, Li Qi Qi?"

Tang Rao waved his hand in front of Li Qi Qi's face a couple of times.
