Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1745: Chapter 1744: Evolving into a Human

Bei Yun faced Bei Lingsu’s suspicious little gaze and cried out in grievance, “That was the old me. Now I’ve been reborn—I’m a brand-new me!”

“The beast I used to be is dead. Now, I’m human.”

He heavily emphasized the word “human.” Having walked to the gates of hell, evolved from a beast to a human, he now laughs heartily when he wants to laugh, cries freely when he wants to cry. This feeling was exhilarating. Even though he’d already been human for two months, from time to time he would still burst out laughing. Even during normal conversations, he could laugh uncontrollably, bending over from the force of his laughter.

Like right now, after heavily emphasizing that he was human, he couldn’t help but laugh again. The more he laughed, the louder it became, until finally it turned into a full-blown skyward laugh.

Bei Lingsu: “…”

It had been nearly two months, and she still hadn’t gotten used to these sporadic outbursts of his.

It was just regular conversation, yet he could suddenly burst into such laughter—it was terrifying.

She rolled her eyes and waited for him to finish laughing. After quite a while, when his laughter finally subsided, she said, “Curiosity isn’t limited to beasts; humans have it too. Don’t mess with this. If you do, it’ll mean disaster for everyone under heaven. Tong Gongzi’s gun doesn’t have many bullets left.”

“Isn’t there Lady Gu’s descendants?” Bei Yun wiped the tears from his laughter and casually asked.

“…You really still have that kind of mindset!” Bei Lingsu said angrily.

“I don’t, truly!” Bei Yun immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, crying out injustice. “I used to be interested in this because I was just a beast anyway, making no effort to improve myself. But now I’m human, and I have moral boundaries.”

Besides, back when he was a beast, compared to Qingye, who was a real beast, he could still be considered to have some conscience. Now that he’d evolved into a human, there was more humanity inside him.

Becoming human wasn’t easy, and he cherished it dearly.

“If you’re still worried, you can supervise me from now on. I’ll dedicate myself to practicing medicine and try to avoid those poisons as much as possible,” Bei Yun said again.

Having evolved into a human, he felt he should do human things. The sins he’d committed in the past shouldn’t only fall on Bei Lingsu to atone for—he had to share that responsibility too.

From now on, he would travel around Daqi with Bei Lingsu to practice medicine.

Bei Lingsu heard his words, rolled her eyes at him without much patience, and said, “Why would I supervise you? I’m your elder. Now that the strange poison in your body has been neutralized, haven’t you thought about your future?”

“Of course I’ve thought about it—following Aunt Lingsu everywhere to heal and save people!”

“That’s not what I mean. I’m talking about settling down.”

Bei Yun: “…”

He lowered his head to glance at himself, then looked at Bei Lingsu with some astonishment. “Who would dare marry me? Aren’t they afraid I’ll suddenly go crazy and kill her?”

“You’re not young anymore; you have to marry eventually. The retired emperor consumed Divine Liquid and now he’s in his nineties. You’ve got decades ahead of you, maybe even more than me. Aren’t you going to find someone to share your life with?”

“No way, not interested in that,” Bei Yun shook his head like a rattle drum.

Bei Lingsu had made it possible for him to experience long-lost familial love. But beyond family, he wasn’t currently interested in friendships or romantic relationships.

Having just evolved into a human, he was still fascinated by all sorts of other things. Settling down?

That could wait!

Bei Yun firmly shook his head, and Bei Lingsu didn’t push further. Matters like this required mutual willingness, and forcing it wouldn’t work.

Still, she kept the matter in mind. If Bei Yun really lived as long as Yang Wenxiao, it would mean fifty years—he couldn’t spend it all alone.

Besides, Bei Yun had great qualities. He appeared to be only in his twenties, was handsome, and a face like his would definitely attract good women.
