Chapter 97: I Love You (Special Chapter for International Women's Day)
An image of Yao Beast carrying Qin Lan's blood appeared from the blade's tip. A gentle and vigorous roar can be heard as soon as it opened its mouth to announce its arrival into this world.
It also thirstily devour all the available Spiritual Energy available in the surrounding air until the sword releasing a brilliant light on its own.
Even Hu Jia, who's soundly asleep in the middle of the room, is awoken by the sudden depletion of Spiritual Energy inside their room.
"What happened?" Hu Jia turned around to look at her husband.
"Gosh... Is that a Heaven-Grade (Full) Offensive Treasure?" Hu Jia's eyes are unable to move away from the sword in between Qin Lan's hands.
"Hu Jia," Qin Lan wakes her up after she was staying still in that position for over a few minutes.
"What... What treasure is that? Is that a Heaven-Grade Offensive Treasure?" Hu Jia asked. How can she be calm after her husband refine a Heaven-Grade in half a day?
"Yes. It's known as Copper Xuan Sword. I've made it uniquely to replace Lu Yi's Jade Dragon Finger." Qin Lan gently placed the sword on top of a sword chest customized to keep the treasure decent.
"Copper Xuan Sword... It's beautiful. I'm sure Lu Yi will fell in love with it the moment he sees it. But... Does he know any sword technique?" Hu Jia nodded in approval after hearing that it was customized for Lu Yi.
"No wonder the sword seems broader and longer... It was to fit Lu Yi's tall figure when he's using the weapon in a fight." Hu Jia thought.
"Let's take a rest by taking a walk outside. I'll have to start to refine Huo Zunjie's weapon next when we came back." Qin Lan gently patted Hu Jia's hair as he finished his sentence.
"Alright..." Hu Jia shyly holds Qin Lan's arm as both of them went out to freshen their mind.
Although it wasn't too long after their last walk, a woman that doesn't wish for their partner's companionship hardly exists. It was also their first time to walk along the busy night street of Fuyun City.
After exchanging some Flesh Foundation Pills with some gold and silver coins commonly used, the couple continued their refreshing trip by tasting all the foods sold along the street.
The couple soon stopped outside of the Zhou Treasured Pavilion as they coincidently stumble across Zhou Mei on the street.
"Greetings, Qin Family third young master." Zhou Mei addressed Qin Lan while carrying a gentle etiquette. Her gracefulness somehow managed to make Hu Jia felt threatened because Zhou Mei was also a beauty like herself.
Although Hu Jia might be winning in the department of chest size, the fair, milky white skin of Zhou Mei is a threat to her pride.
"It was nice to meet you too, Mrs. Qin." Zhou Mei extends her gesture to Hu Jia after she noticed her awkward expression.
"Ni - Nice to meet you too..." Hu Jia's hand grabbed Qin Lan's sleeve tighter as she felt threatened by Zhou Mei right in front of her.
"Heh..." suddenly, Zhou Mei chuckled. Her cute gesture made the couple questioned the reason behind her smile.
"Although I wish to chat with the third young master for a while, there is currently a banquet ongoing in our Zhou Treasured Pavilion. Please excuse me today for not able to extend our invitation to you tonight."
"If there is a more suitable time in the future, I'll be looking forward to cooperating with the Qin Family again for one or two business ventures. I hope by that time, young master Qin Lan will not reject the request of this lady..." Zhou Mei bowed at Qin Lan after she expressed what she assumes to be regret.
"Then... Let's meet again in the future." Qin Lan smiled at Zhou Mei before he continues down the road with Hu Jia by his side.
"Hah..." both Hu Jia and Zhou Mei exhaled a breath of air they've been holding it the moment their eyes met after leaving. Unconsciously, both women see one another as a threat as their heart was captured by Qin Lan.
"Am... Am I going to share my husband with someone like her? Will Qin Lan as this question?" a hint of worry appeared in Hu Jia's mind as she thinks about what she had.
Perhaps, except for a bigger breast and sexual desire that's capable of holding Qin Lan's heart, she had nothing much...
At the same time, Zhou Mei was sharing the same thought as Hu Jia did.
"How am I going to defeat someone of her caliber? From how Qin Lan allowed her to hold his arm, I can see that my chances of becoming his wife are slim... I heard that even before coming to the Cloud Plucking Sect, Qin Lan has been giving her full control over the family's finance..." Zhou Mei sat by herself on a bridge linking the merchandise display hall and manager's courtyard together as her mind went somewhere else.
"Milady... The banquet has started." a female servant came to remind her of the time, but Zhou Mei's heart has long gone to where Qin Lan is.
"Milady?" the female servant looked around her.
"Psshh... Haha..." suddenly, Zhou Mei chuckled. Something funny came across her mind as she remembered something Qin Lan use to tease her when they first met inside the exact same pavilion.
"Worldly Sense Physique... If I can have you... So what if I continue to linger in this worldly dream for a little longer?" Zhou Mei smiled.

The couple finally returned to the spiritual cave without knowing what was going through in their mind. As for Qin Lan, he was delighted by buying a bulk of materials on their way back.
As he was preparing for the refining process, Hu Jia suddenly came from his back and embraced him with all her force. Her chest nicely fit on Qin Lan's back as the feeling of bounciness made him speechless.
"Husband, can you embrace me and hold me tight tonight?" Hu Jia's pleaded for Qin Lan's affection.
And being a responsible husband, Qin Lan submitted to her.
Although he has no idea why tears were rolling down from the corner of her eyes after they finish sharing the night together, there's one thing he understood.
This woman who sleeps by his side and embracing his arm tight without letting go had made him a part of her life. And no matter how it will be in the future, she shall not be neglected.
"Hu Jia," Qin Lan called her name as she is still soundly asleep.
"En..." feeling that somebody is calling her, Hu Jia gave a light response while her eyes remained closed.
"I love you." Qin Lan said.
