Chapter 65 Part 1

Chapter 65: Godly Qing Said, Hitherto Shalt Thou Come, but No Further (1)

The live broadcast room erupted in boos:

"Too lame! They’ve exposed their vulnerable side, it’s the perfect opportunity to make a move! What a bunch of amateurs."

"Why bother with strategies? I can tell, Honey Moon isn’t following the path of friendship or love, but of family bonds!"

"Exactly, it’s the first time I’ve seen Chu Yuanqing with such a gentle expression, almost covering up her youthful age completely, a transformation from a young wife to a mature one, truly remarkable."

These playful comments mostly come from fans and bystanders.

Chu Wang Shufan’s focus is completely different, emphasizing on empathy.

After all, when the girl tearfully spoke those sincere words, they not only pierced Chu Yuanying as a father, but also deeply affected the fan who was getting to know her better.

——Wanting her father to see.

——Wanting to be her father’s pride.

——Wanting to get her father’s attention.

The two sentences contain such honest and adorable sincerity.

When fans see this emotion, they don’t even need to think from another perspective, they can’t help but feel sorry.

"Waa waa waa, Honey Moon, my Honey Moon, she really couldn’t help but cry when she saw Chu Yuanqing, even though she was super strong during training, she cried so much."

"Yes, Qingmei has always been very supportive of Honey Moon from the start, you must be forever best friends ❤️❤️❤️."

On the other hand, Chu Yuanqing’s fans had an even bigger reaction, exploding like boiling water at various points.

The reason is very simple.

Chu Wang Shu’s background on paper is tragic.

But in the gentle and motherly stance of comforting Chu Yuanqing, with Chu Wang Shu’s background as an orphan with both parents gone, along with her dazed expression after comforting, it’s easy for fans to imagine and sympathize deeply.

But in the Yuanxiao Group’s understanding,

The love that Chu Yuanqing lacks cannot be easily replaced by outsiders.

When it comes to money, they don’t even have a way to send it to Chu Yuanqing.

Even though Chu Yuanqing’s address in government housing was exposed online, leading to fans sending letters and cards, the front door was filled with gifts. However, there was no space to store them, and no one dared to send expensive items, for fear of attracting thieves.

In other words, this sympathy eventually accumulated into a strong determination to help someone succeed.

Chu Yuanqing was completely unaware of all this.

Her daughter’s sincere confession after many years felt like a heavy blow to her chest, causing a mix of intense guilt, sadness, and joy to linger in her soul like swirling mist.

They emitted a scorching heat that peeled away the heavy old shells in her consciousness, as if trying to ignite a spark of life from her long-held sense of resignation, yet ultimately… defeated by reality.

After composing herself, Chu Yuanqing silently walked back to the practice room, examining her new but inevitably aging body in the mirror, and retrieving a lantern pendant that only she could see inside.

– Lantern.

– It is the essence of a magical girl, the source of magic, the container that holds the soul.

In theory, magical girls do not have a lifespan limit. To understand a magical girl’s condition, you just need to look at her lantern pendant. The brighter and intact it is, the healthier and safer she is.

On the other hand, one can draw conclusions about strength, potential, personality, and level from it.

Magic is a spiritual power. The purer, more noble, kinder, resilient, and courageous a soul is, the more powerful the lantern awakened, the stronger the magic controlled, and even the purity and magnitude of the magic power source will exceed normal limits.

In the inherited memories Chu Yuanqing received from her pendant, there was a saying.

– Pure white is the highest praise for the lantern.

As a savior, Chu Yuanqing not only achieved epic deeds but also bore the karma of billions of people alone.

After transforming into a magical girl, she theoretically gains unprecedented magical power, controls magic surpassing multiple bestowed blessings, and her lantern’s initial awakening color should be the purest white.

And…

The erosion of souls by the Sea of Truth shattered this beautiful possibility.

The lantern pendant in Chu Yuanqing’s hand has cracks all over it, with a dull color and a murky appearance, as if it could fall apart at any moment.

Even with the white Magic Armor, long Tian Shan snow hair, and the occasional flicker of white in the lantern, it was evident that despite her high potential as a magical girl, the lantern would still break.

Perhaps, if she didn’t have such high potential and couldn’t convert terrifying magic power with a saint’s heart, simply transforming life forms wouldn’t make sense for her to survive for months under the colossal Sea of Truth.

This was the miracle created by the magical girl.

But miracles and magic always come with a price.

Chu Yuanqing held the pendant, her eyebrows lowered, listening carefully.

The countdown of life ticking away.

Like an hourglass, never stopping.

Chu Yuanqing rubbed the cracks on the lantern, calculating the little time she had left, lost in thought for a while before a complex smile appeared on her lips as she murmured softly:

"Little Shu, being the moon seems like it would be very lonely."

At the same time.

Outside the practice room,

Tang Liuli came here at some point, she was leaning against the practice room wall, burying her head between her legs, hugging her knees, looking like she was on her period, trembling like a small animal caught in the cold wind. Her neatly placed feet couldn’t help but fidget.

This scene left the audience locked in confusion:

"Hey, what is Little Liuli doing?"

"Haha, is she feeling jealous watching Honey Moon steal all of Chu Yuanqing’s motherly love, feeling exposed, and breaking down?"

No matter how bizarre the audience could be, they couldn’t imagine Tang Liuli’s current situation.

This former child star, unlike sadness and despair, was overwhelmed by joy that penetrated her mind and soul.

Yes.

Tang Liuli felt a lot of emotions from that person again, her uncontrollable talent, she considered it as food, swallowed it into her belly, and it spread satisfaction to every nerve ending.

This time, her empathy was not just for the savior’s sadness.

And…

Chu Yuanqing’s love for her daughter.

Tang Liuli’s pale skin with a hint of sickness turned pink, her delicate neck tinged with blush, misty tears overflowing from her eyes, as if to outline a heart, and with each breath, warm breaths were exhaled, turning into shimmering tears.

The girl clenched the hem of her skirt tightly, her thighs and calves trembling, her back damp with cool sweat, her eyes gradually losing focus, blanking out for a moment.

For a long time, a long time.

Until most of the Grade B contestants had left the stage.

Tang Liuli barely came to and struggled to stand up with the support of the wall. Her legs felt sore and numb, especially sensitive to the touch as they were damp and messy, partially covering her face, making her look quite disheveled and gloomy.

However, the lingering blush on her cheeks, glossy lips, and the teardrop-shaped birthmark at the corner of her eye, all evoked a desire to conquer and possess.

Tang Liuli limped away with the support of the wall, feeling a bit out of breath in her heart.

This feeling was like a starving succubus with a desire for a sweet treat, encountering the male protagonist who unexpectedly overwhelmed her with his extraordinary energy, leaving her so satisfied that she didn’t feel like eating for a month.

Chu Yuanqing’s emotional response was just like that.

So, is Chu Wang Shu really that important to her?

The emotion without selfish desires, free from impurities, filled only with pure heartfelt devotion, as gentle as spring, no matter how many times it is experienced, is enough to fulfill oneself unconditionally, freely entering the "Heart Flow".

It felt just like true motherly love.

Yes, motherly love.

Only the great and selfless motherly love is the purest emotion for humanity, and it is a unique feeling that cannot be erased by any inherited darkness.

Wait a moment…

In that case, isn’t she becoming a motherly love thief for real?

Tang Liuli felt extremely guilty and couldn’t help but blink her emerald green eyes.

The little girl secretly doubted whether it was the influence of her Grorrea heritage, it definitely wasn’t her intention to cause any trouble!

Moreover, everyone is sharing, there is no shortage on Chu Wang Shu’s side and Little Qing won’t lose anything, so what harm is there in letting her have a taste?

Doesn’t it all sound reasonable, right?

Tang Liuli started to self-hypnotize gradually, gaining more confidence.

——Splash!

The girl was walking, then suddenly her legs gave way and she fell heavily to the ground. But she quickly got up again, leaning against the wall like a determined little cat. She looked strong and proud, not feeling sad at all, there was even a hint of a smile on her lips.

Even though falling down is usually a consequence, it couldn’t dampen her good mood.

Because after this little stumble, not only did she have a good meal, but she also received some very important information!

That is, in Little Qing’s eyes, Chu Wang Shu is seen as a true daughter!

In other words, she is not only harmless, but also a great opportunity.

Does Xie Qingxuan know? Does sakura girl know? Does Liang Xiaoxiao know?

No! Nobody knows except for her!

Tang Liuli felt like she had already won so much today.

Proudly walking back to the dormitory, she had no idea that she had just caused confusion for hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room, leaving behind a classic moment of puzzlement worthy of an idol trainee.

"Why is Little Liuli laughing so happily even after falling down? She must have gone crazy, sigh."

"So, why would this child squat outside the Grade C Practice Room for twenty minutes? Won’t their legs hurt?"

"Wow, is she drawing energy from Honey Qing by acting like this? I dare not say hello to her the whole time, what a socially anxious and gloomy sister."

"I’m starting to suspect if Tang Liuli hired a stand-in on stage, she’s like two different people on and off the stage."

Of course, the biggest change in Tang Liuli is still her long-time fans.

In the beginning, Tang Liuli was highly valued in the industry for her superb skills, but what really endeared her to fans was her sunny, cheerful personality that could make people forget their worries with her innocent childlike smile.

Now, this child is gloomy, socially anxious, temperamental and arrogant, exuding rebellious teenage vibes, so desolate that it seems like she won’t smile again.

This huge contrast undoubtedly disappoints some old fans and makes them leave, but many true fans cannot help but feel sorry for her. They can’t help but speculate on what she has been through in recent years, leading to a big heartache scene for the fans.

At the same time.

Grade C contestants started to receive messages, ended their individual training sessions in batches, and prepared for secondary evaluation following the sequence arranged by the program group.
