"He doesn"t like homemade food? A humble person like him doesn"t like humble food?!" For some reason, Xue Lin doubted her husband.
Ge Chen calmly said, "I know my friends very well. Though he acts humble, his mind is filled with nasty thoughts. Stay away from him, okay?"
At the company, Ming Yu, who was working day and night, all of a sudden sneezed. "Did someone just mention me?" He didn"t have time to think further and resumed working again.
Xue Lin blankly started at Ge Chen in disbelief. "For real?"
"Who will you believe in? Your husband or husband"s friend?" Ge Chen asked. His tone was still cool.
"Even if you lie I have to take your side since you are my husband." Xue Lin said.
In a relationship, when it comes to two men, instantly prioritize your man even if he"s wrong. Just think when you and another female are having a problem and your boyfriend or husband takes her side, how sad you will be. The same goes for a man. He also feels upset and insecure when his woman supports another man rather than him. No matter how strong and tough a man is, he is still a human just like a woman.

"Wife, you are wise!" Ge Chen was thoroughly impressed with her. "Why do you always act like you are very experienced in romance?"
"Don"t get the wrong idea. I think of you as a human being and put myself in your shoes before a.n.a.lyzing the reason behind your behavior. That"s how I act. If I ever had a boyfriend before, I would"ve never married you and if I had broken up, then I would have stayed alone for the rest of my life." Xue Lin was very righteous when it came to romance.
Ge Chen"s eyes held warmth. "Have you ever thought that you could become a saint if you wanted?"
Xue Lin asked him back, "Aren"t I a saint?"
"…You are right." He could only agree with her.
Xue Lin pondered about something and said, "Actually, I think I"m purer than a saint."
"You sure are." Ge Chen thought if they continued this conversation, heaven might get angry at Xue Lin. He changed the subject, "Why don"t you try the wheelchair?"
"Yeah, I want to." Xue Lin eagerly said. She never thought sitting in a wheelchair would excite her.

Priest Osiris went to the main house of the Gu Family. High Priest Wei WenYing personally welcomed him. "Holy Priest, it"s an honor to meet you after three long years. How have you been?"
To everyone, Osiris is known as Holy Priest. No one knew his real name and no one tried to find out his real name. He looked as pure as a heavenly blessing. No one dared to pry into his ident.i.ty.
Osiris was wearing a white shirt, brown pants, and white sandals. His long, shiny silver hair was tied in a ponytail. Three b.u.t.tons of his shirt were unb.u.t.toned showing his abs. He was feeling restless wearing tight clothes because he wasn"t used to wearing gentlemanly western clothes.
"I haven"t been able to sleep for hours. I want to take off my clothes and take a warm bath." His voice was as calm as water and very soothing to hear.
"…" High Priest Wei WenYing didn"t know what to say. He knew that Osiris only wanted a warm bath.
As long as someone is innocent, they won"t mind but if people have evil thoughts, they will be misled by Osiris"s words and have impure thoughts.
[A/N: I have evil thoughts -_- *faceslap* ]
High Priest Wei WenYing said, "Please come this way. We have prepared a room for you. The butler has also warmed up water for you. You can take a bath and rest. Do you want something to eat?"
"Ginger tea and fruit salad are fine for now." Osiris yawned. He had been preparing to come here for a week. He had to study a lot.
Wise men say, "Know thy enemy before you fight."
Though he fought against this dark spirit two times in a row, he still went through the doc.u.ments again.
Rereading and rechecking won"t hurt him. It will only make him more confident. Also, if he missed something in the past, he could learn something more.
Since he was doing research, he couldn"t sleep and he got tired.
After taking a warm bath, he wore his usual loose cream-colored robe that showed his toned chest. His long silver hair was loosely tied and rested on his left shoulder. He took four hours of rest. After that, he sat down on the chair right beside the window and took a sip of ginger tea. He felt refreshed.
High Priest Wei WenYing sat across the tea table. He looked a bit nervous.
"WenYing," Osiris calmly yet suddenly called out.
"Yes! Holy Priest!" Even with preparation, High priest Wei WenYing felt anxious.
Osiris took another sip and asked, "Tell me, why I did not get any signal when the seal was broken?" His tone was as calm as water but his eyes were sharply looking at Wei WenYing.
Normally, as a priest, Osiris would find out any strong evil presence due to his high cultivation power. However, this time he didn"t notice anything even when such a catastrophic incident happened.
Even nature who always gives signal beforehand, didn"t notify him. He was in the dark before Shintaro called them for the meeting.
High Priest Wei WenYing was flabbergasted. "Holy Priest, I have no idea. That night, I was sleeping soundly and suddenly I heard one of my young disciples" scream. He was guarding the temple with two other disciples. I got up as quickly as possible and when I went out, I saw the dark smoke. It was so evil that my body froze for three seconds." He explained everything he knew.
"Aren"t you surprised that you didn"t notice it right at the moment the seal was broken?" Osiris asked him.
