My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 998 Misunderstanding

The two hugged each other tightly, and in the dim candlelight, their shadows intertwined, as if telling a promise that they would never give up. The wind outside began to blow, and the vines swayed, seemingly praying for their love. In this small cave, their love found temporary peace, but the road ahead is still long, full of unknowns and challenges.

As time goes by, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing's secret meeting becomes more and more difficult to maintain. Ling Tianhong, the patriarch of the Ling family, and Zhou Bufan, the patriarch of the Zhou family, both began to doubt their behavior. They sent out more spies to closely monitor every corner, trying to uncover this forbidden love.

Late one night, Ling Xue quietly left the family mansion again, feeling full of tension and uneasiness. She knew that every trip might be her last, but she still couldn't resist the desire to meet Zhou Xing. Her steps were light and fast, like a cat walking at night, avoiding the eyes of her tribe.

When she arrived at the cave, she found that Zhou Xing had been waiting there for a long time. His face was pale and there was a hint of exhaustion in his eyes, and he had obviously felt the pressure from his family.

"Xue'er, I feel like it's getting harder and harder for us to meet each other." Zhou Xing's voice was low, revealing a hint of helplessness.

Ling Xue walked to Zhou Xing's side and gently stroked his cheek, trying to dispel the haze in his heart: "No, we can't give up. Our love is real, and it's worth fighting for."

The two hugged each other tightly, their heartbeats echoing in the silent cave. They know that the days to come will be more difficult, but they also understand that only by facing difficulties together can their love be sublimated.

Soon after, the relationship between the two was finally discovered by the family. Ling Tianhong and Zhou Bufan joined forces and decided to use a public competition to resolve the grievances between the two families. They asked Ling Xue and Zhou Xing to each fight on behalf of their own families and use force to decide the fate of love.

In the 37th level test, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing transformed into professional e-sports players, playing for two fiercely competitive teams respectively. The game world they live in is a universe full of science fiction. Players use advanced virtual reality equipment to control their characters to engage in fierce battles in various arenas.

Ling Xue is an excellent female shooter, known for her precise operation and calm judgment. Her character is dressed in a silver-white battle suit, wearing a helmet with light and shadow effects, and holding a radiant energy bow. Zhou Xingze is a powerful warrior, known for his agility and powerful explosive power. His equipment is a set of red battle armor, and the sword in his hand can wield a blazing sword energy on the battlefield.

The two are rivals in the game. Whenever their teams meet on the field, they will show each other's strongest strength and have a wonderful contest. However, outside of the game, they developed a deep friendship because of their love for the game and respect for competition.

In the training base, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing were both the first to arrive and the last to leave. They continue to hone their skills, analyze tactics, and learn from each other's strengths in the virtual training room. After training, they would exchange ideas on the sofa in the rest area, or on the observation deck outside the simulation room, admiring the beauty of the virtual starry sky while discussing the next strategy.

With the passage of time, the mutual understanding and support between the two in the game gradually turned into care and concern in real life. In addition to the pressure and tension of the game, they began to look forward to every encounter with each other, whether it was a duel on the field or a communication in life.

Although they belong to different teams, deep down in their hearts, both Ling Xue and Zhou Xing know that the relationship between them has transcended a simple competitive relationship and has become a special tacit understanding and deep emotion. They know that even if the road ahead is full of challenges, as long as they stick to each other, they can overcome all difficulties together and reach a higher peak.

When the day of the competition arrived, the whole village was immersed in a tense atmosphere. The villagers gathered around the ring and talked a lot. Some people sympathized with Ling Xue and Zhou Xing, while others believed that they went against the interests of the family.

Ling Xue and Zhou Xing stood on the ring, their eyes meeting, full of firmness and trust. They know that this competition is not only a contest of martial arts, but also a test of their love.

The battle begins. Ling Xue's swordsmanship is elegant and sharp, and each sword carries her dedication to love. Zhou Xing's palms are calm and powerful, and each palm contains his promise for the future. Their moves intertwined in the air, they were both rivals and partners, their hearts communicating silently.

As the battle progressed, both men were injured, and their clothes were stained red with blood. But their eyes never left each other, and even in pain, their love grew stronger.

Finally, after a fierce duel, both men fell to the ring at the same time. Their hands were tightly held together, as if telling everyone that their hearts would never be separated. The surrounding villagers were silent, moved by the courage and persistence of the young couple.

Ling Tianhong and Zhou Bufan looked at each other, and their hearts began to stir. They realize that perhaps true courage lies not in upholding family honor but in accepting young people's right to choose and pursue happiness.

At that moment, the two once-antagonizing families began to re-examine their values. Ling Xue and Zhou Xing, although physically exhausted, felt unprecedented peace and contentment deep in their hearts. They know that no matter what the outcome is, they have proven the power of love in their own way.

In the 31st chapter of overcoming the tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect were arranged to practice in a barbecue restaurant. This barbecue restaurant is located on a busy street corner and is visited by a steady stream of customers every day.

As the boss, Senior Sister Ling Xue is responsible for the operation and management of the entire barbecue restaurant. She comes to the store early every morning, opens the doors and windows, arranges the tables and chairs, and prepares the ingredients. She wears a neat apron, her hair is combed meticulously, and she greets every customer with a smile. She is familiar with every barbecue method and can skillfully operate the barbecue to grill the ingredients just right.

Junior Brother Zhou Xing plays the role of a store clerk, responsible for ordering food, cashiering and serving customers. He was wearing a clean uniform, his hair was neatly combed, and he was standing in front of the counter with a smile. He patiently listens to customers' ordering needs and records each order accurately. He is familiar with the price of each dish and can quickly calculate the total price and collect cash or card payment. He is also responsible for delivering the barbecue to customers' tables, ensuring that every customer can enjoy delicious barbecue in a timely manner.

In daily work and life, senior sister Ling Xue and junior brother Zhou Xing cooperate with each other and have a perfect understanding. Senior Sister Ling Xue is responsible for making barbecue, while Junior Brother Zhou Xing is responsible for ordering and cashiering. The two have a clear division of labor and perform their respective duties. They keep the store clean and hygienic at all times to ensure that every customer can dine in a comfortable environment. Although the task of overcoming the tribulation was difficult, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing faced it with an optimistic attitude. They run this barbecue restaurant with heart and strive to provide the best service to every customer. They believe that as long as they work hard, they will be able to get through this.

During this difficult time, senior sister Ling Xue and junior brother Zhou Xing not only learned how to run a barbecue restaurant, but also learned how to work as a team and support each other. They understand that only by supporting each other can they overcome difficulties together and meet future challenges.

The office of Jimeng Company is located in a new technology park. It has an open working environment and the walls are covered with posters and design sketches of various game characters, showing youth and vitality. The desk is filled with computers, tablets and various electronic devices, revealing the spark of creativity in the mess.

In the thirty-sixth step of overcoming the tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect found themselves in a village full of ancient customs. The sky is clear, the clouds are floating lightly, and below are the rolling green mountains. At the foot of the mountains are dotted a few cottages with rising smoke.

In this world, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing were childhood sweethearts, but fate cruelly separated them. Their families became sworn enemies due to old grudges. Although the two have deep love in their hearts, family pressure forces them to hide their feelings and appear distant from each other.

Ling Xue lives in the east of the village and is the daughter of the head of the clan. She must wear a plain white dress and an exquisite hairpin every day to maintain the dignity and dignity she deserves. In the morning, when the first ray of sunlight shines into her room through the window lattice, she will get up and start the day's housework. Although her life was monotonous, she would always take a moment to look out the window when she was busy, with a hint of longing and helplessness for Zhou Xing in her eyes.

Zhou Xingze lives in the west of the village. As the only son of a rival family, his life is full of strict cultivation and constant family responsibilities. His clothing is simple and practical, and he often wears an heirloom sword at his waist. Whenever night falls, he will quietly leave his home and go to remote mountains and forests to practice swordsmanship. Only when he wields the long sword can he temporarily forget about Ling Xue in his heart.

In such daily life, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing would occasionally meet by chance in the market or by the river. They would pretend to exchange glances casually, and that moment of contact seemed to be able to convey countless love and heartache that words could not express. However, soon, they will turn around and return to their own lives, not daring to miss them too much.

The surrounding villagers knew about the grudges between the two families, but were unaware of the subtle emotions between the young man and woman. They just lamented the beauty and sadness of this pair of mandarin ducks, but they were unable to change anything.

In the process of ascension, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing have to face not only external challenges, but also emotional entanglements deep inside. They must find ways to overcome inner conflicts and external pressures, and work together to overcome these eighty-one tribulations in order to reach the other side of ascension.

Ling Xue serves as the company's creative director. She is responsible for conceiving the game's storyline, character settings and art style. Zhou Xing is the technical backbone. He is responsible for writing code to realize Ling Xue’s creativity and ensure the smooth operation of the game. They often discuss together and create new sparks of inspiration.

As a start-up, they faced a shortage of staff, so Ling Xue and Zhou Xing often had to do everything themselves, from marketing to customer service. They learned how to work together and solve problems together.

During the development process, they will encounter various technical difficulties and market pressures. Ling Xue will use her patience and meticulousness to polish every detail of the game, while Zhou Xing will continue to optimize the code and improve the performance of the game.

After work, the two of them also relax. They will go to a nearby coffee shop to discuss the future development direction of the game, or take a walk in the park to discuss trivial matters in life. Their relationship is not just colleagues, but more like comrades, supporting each other and growing together.

Facing fierce competition in the industry and changing market demands, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing must maintain the ability to learn and adapt, and constantly look for new opportunities and breakthrough points for the company.

In this fictional cultivation story, overcoming tribulation is an important test before a cultivator ascends to immortality. The thirty-third level is set as the host of the wedding company, which means that Senior Sister Lingxue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of Haoqing Sect must cultivate their character by organizing weddings, coordinating the affairs of all parties, and looking for opportunities to pass the level.

In the early morning, the morning sun filled the bustling city. Senior Sister Ling Xue was wearing a plain white dress, and Junior Brother Zhou Xing was wearing a smart suit. They walked side by side into the wedding company located in the bustling district. The store is filled with all kinds of flowers, silks and exquisite wedding props, and the air is filled with a light floral fragrance.

As a wedding host, Ling Xue is responsible for communicating details with clients. She always listens patiently to the requirements of the couple with a gentle smile. Whether it is about the floral arrangement or the ceremony process, she can plan carefully to ensure that every link is flawless. Zhou Xing is responsible for contacting suppliers. His words are sharp and clear, and he can solve problems quickly and ensure that all materials are delivered on time.

In the afternoon, they reviewed the venue layout together, instructing the staff to place flowers and adjust lights. Ling Xue shuttled between the tables and chairs lightly, while Zhou Xing carefully recorded every area that needed improvement. The tacit cooperation between them has greatly improved the efficiency of the entire team.

In the evening, during the couple's rehearsal, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing guided the process together, sometimes whispering to soothe the nervous bride, and sometimes using humorous words to ease the groom's nervousness. Their performance won praise from everyone present.

After work, the two occasionally discuss ways of spiritual practice and share each other's insights. In dealing with trivial wedding matters, their character was constantly sharpened and they gained a deeper understanding of the world.

As night falls, the day's work comes to an end. Under the bright starlight, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing sat in the quiet garden, played chess, drank tea, exchanged ideas, and enjoyed a moment of tranquility. They know that the success of every wedding is not only a blessing for the couple's happiness, but also a victory for themselves on the way to overcome the disaster.

Such days, although full of the hustle and bustle of human fireworks, are quite precious to Ling Xue and Zhou Xing who are in the process of overcoming the tribulation.
