"Father, are you going to force your daughter to die?"

Situ Linglong cried out.

She knew very well what kind of person Wang Yang was. He was lustful, even a demon. He had taken in many young women, and many of them had been tortured to death by him.

"You are a member of the Situ family, so you should think for the Situ family. I usually dote on you too much. This time, you caused the trouble, and you must pay the price. Either you drive him away, and this matter has nothing to do with the Situ family, or you marry Wang Yang as a concubine. Don't worry, if he dares to treat you badly in the future, I, Situ Nan, am not someone to be trifled with, and I will definitely stand up for you. Besides, Wang Yang is young, but she is already in the early stage of the Immortal Venerable, with extraordinary talent. She is also extremely doted on in the Wang family, and her future is limitless. You will not be wronged by marrying her!"

Situ Nan usually dotes on his daughter very much, but today, his attitude is unusually firm.

For a moment, Situ Linglong's eyes were red, and she felt so aggrieved that she almost cried out loud.

She bit her lip and said, "Father, he is not only my savior, but also the man I love. It is absolutely impossible for me to drive him away."

"What? You like him?"

Situ Nan was shocked. "This brat suddenly appeared. I've never heard of his name before. Moreover, according to him, he has no sect or faction. You actually want to like him? Are you trying to piss me off to death? If our Situ family doesn't marry into the Wang family, there will be a huge crisis. The Zhai family is eyeing us covetously. Now that they finally have the chance, they will definitely take advantage of it to make trouble. It's because of you that you rejected Wang Yang's proposal that the relationship between the Wang family and us has deteriorated. You must take responsibility. This time, you have to marry me, whether you want to or not. I have already promised Wang Yang that he will propose tomorrow!"

"Father, if you force me again, I will really have no choice but to die."

Situ Linglong finally shed two lines of tears, and I felt pity for her.

"You, you, you're really going to piss me off to death. Go back and think carefully about what your father said. Arrange this marriage tomorrow, otherwise, I will kill him with my own hands!"

Situ Haonan was also a little sad in his heart, but thinking about the future of his family, he still spoke resolutely.

Linglong knew that her father was determined to make her marry Wang Yang, even if Tang Xiaobao had not appeared. Her heart was filled with despair.

She had always thought that her father would spoil her and would never force her, but in fact, in the face of family interests, she had no choice but to be abandoned.

Hate?

I can't hate him.

From her father's perspective, she

I understand that very well.

But, do you want your own happiness?

She felt unwilling again.

Situ Linglong didn't know how she got back to the yard where she lived, and her tears never dried.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Xiaoqian came up and asked with concern.

She has served Linglong since she was a child, so naturally they have a deep sisterly bond.

Situ Linglong wiped the tears from her eyes and asked, "Where is Master Ximen?"

"He has already arranged for accommodation. He said that no one can disturb him without his permission."

"Okay, I understand. Go down and I'll go talk to him."

Taking a deep breath, Situ Linglong walked towards the room where Tang Xiaobao lived.

"Miss--"

"You don't have to say anything, just go back."

Situ Linglong waved her hand.

Xiaoqian sighed. She had wanted to persuade the young lady, but now she knew she had no chance.

She knows best what kind of person the young lady is.

I will never compromise easily.

Even in death, she is so strong.

But today, she cried.

It seems that the matter is very serious.

Tang Xiaobao was already well aware of the situation outside. He sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at Situ Linglong who walked in from the opposite side.

Situ Linglong sat down, they looked at each other, and then she lowered her head.

Tang Xiaobao looked at her quietly. After a while, he said quietly, "It seems that my arrival has caused you a lot of grievances and pressure."

Situ Linglong twisted her hands together, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a while, she raised her head and asked, "Aren't you from the First Heaven?"

Tang Xiaobao asked: "Why do you say that?"

"Can I trust you?"

Situ Linglong asked.

Tang Xiaobao thought about it and nodded.

"Okay, I believe you, so can we have a frank chat?"

"Why?"

“That’s going to be important for my next decision.”

Situ Linglong took a breath.

Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Okay, if you have any questions, you can ask directly. I will definitely answer any questions I can give you. I will never lie to you."

"Why did you come to the First Heaven?"

"If I say that coming here was just an accident, would you believe me?"

"Accident? Okay, I believe it."

Situ Linglong hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

"Okay, I came here by accident. I just wanted to leave the Nine Heavens and go to the Heavenly Court to do something very important. To enter the Heavenly Court, I have to participate in the reincarnation trial. That's why I made this deal with you."

He really didn't lie.

Because he couldn't bear it.

Situ Linglong frowned and said, "That means you'll leave sooner or later. With your strength, you can join any faction and get a spot in the Nine Heavens Tournament. Why would you join the Situ family?"

Her face flushed slightly, and she looked at Tang Xiaobao expectantly, adding, "You said you are worthy of my trust, and you can't lie to me."

Tang Xiaobao knew what she meant.

However, he hesitated.

Situ Linglong didn't urge him, but just stared into his eyes, as if she could see through his heart.

"Because I think you're pretty and I don't want to see you being humiliated."

"Do you really think I'm beautiful?"

Situ Linglong's eyes lit up.

Tang Xiaobao touched his nose and said, "This is true, but——"

"You don't have to say anything."

Situ Linglong suddenly interrupted Tang Xiaobao.

"ah?"

Tang Xiaobao was a little confused.

I haven't finished what I said yet.

"do you like me?"

Situ Linglong raised her head bravely, looked at Tang Xiaobao and asked.

She was so shy in her heart.

When has she ever said such embarrassing words in her life?

She had never been able to ask a man in front of her if he liked her.

But now it's no longer possible. At this point, she must make a decision.

Tang Xiaobao was ashamed.

"I like it, but—"

"Okay, since you like me, I'll tell you that I like you too. Although I haven't fallen in love with you yet, I have a good impression of you. Take me away and we'll escape tonight."

puff!

Tang Xiaobao almost fell down.

elopement?

Is this the rhythm of eloping?

He said he couldn't accept it at all.
