Chapter 318 – Bribing The Family; Grilled By The Parents (3)
“Cough. Cough. Ahem….” Cheng Biyuan wasn’t even sure how to respond. The thickness of this young master’s face was unbelievable.
“That’s up to you, young man!” He finally mumbled.
Witnessing that, everybody smiled. The Cheng’s had no choice but to accept this man as their guye. After all, this was a betrothal decided by someone from the Temple of Divine Plans, who would be stupid enough to fight over that? That would be the prelude to one’s death wish!
Looking at the two of them, however, everybody did feel that they make a good couple so they just looked at them with kindness and interest.
“Thank you, father-in-law!” Mo Xuanzun, thinking that Cheng Biyuan had already accepted him, was ecstatic.
Cheng Biyuan’s lips shuddered and he was wordless.
“You shameless thing!” Cheng Xiao Xiao was so mad that she gave him another stare before she pouted, turned around, and left!
“Aiya, Xiao Xiao! Wait for me!” cried Mo Xuanzun from behind the one who left. He then turned to the other one and ordered, “Old man, take care of them!”
“Yes, guye!” replied the smiley Old Man Ying!
With a twist of his body, Mo Xuanzun’s silhouette disappeared in front of everyone all of a sudden!
A look of concern flashed through everybody’s face. This genius mathematician wasn’t someone anyone can afford to offend. They guesstimate his cultivation level was at apex martial emperor at the very minimum. Only a few among them knew of his true cultivation level.
“AAARRRGGGGHHH!!!!”
“OOUUCCCHHH!!!!!”
Two blood-curdling cries signified the end of this crazy drama.
After that, anyone who qualified to deal with the Cheng’s stayed and conducted their businesses with the Cheng’s. Those who did not get the chance to deal with them left one by one. Even though they weren’t able to purchase any items this time, but they did witness an once-in-a-lifetime drama unfold. So that was almost like a consolation prize of sort.
That being said, Mo Xuanzun followed traces of Cheng Xiao Xiao’s scent to the main building, then to her quarter, but he wasn’t able to find her in person.
It was as though she had disappeared into thin air!
Mo Xuanzun couldn’t figure it out. Given his cultivation level, if he was searching for someone,
he should be able to easily sense someone within a certain range regardless of how much they are above or below him. Nonetheless, he wasn’t able to detect how Cheng Xiao Xiao disappeared. The only thing that he was certain of was that she disappeared inside her quarters.
After returning to the dimension, Cheng Xiao Xiao heard the non-stop giggling from little Yuteng and the goofy smile on the iron-armed bear. She was irritated beyond words, “What you two laughing at? What’s so funny, huh?”
“HAHAHAHAHA!!!”
Little Yuteng continued to laugh uncontrollably. Running out of options, Cheng Xiao Xiao grabbed her and flicked her on her forehead with her finger, “What you laughing at? Be quiet! I am not in a good mood here!”
“Ouch!” shouted little Yuteng as she tried to rub the pain out of her forehead. She grumbled as she rubbed herself, “Young Mistress, what was that for? How could you?”
“…..” Cheng Xiao Xiao glanced at her and wouldn’t dignified her question with an answer.
“Hehe….,” chuckled little Yuteng again. “Young Mistress is annoyed at the genius mathematician, aren’t you?”
“I know! How did he find out where I live?”
This tool gave her headaches. Especially when his skin was thirty percent thicker than a normal wall! She had no idea what to do with him.
And the worst part was, every time she saw him it’d remind her of what had happened. She couldn’t get rid of the image in her mind and that gave her mixed signals in her heart.
“Young Mistress, you are fond of him, aren’t you?” asked Little Yuteng curiously as she could sense her emotions. “Young Mistress, this was what you call ‘romance’, right?”
As the dimension levelled up, little Yuteng could understand more and more about human emotions!
