(Time Travel + Space + Ancient Martial Arts + 1v1 + Patriotism) The descendants of the great shaman priest have dwindled. Unable to bear it, the old ancestor sends a modern orphan girl to the 1960s...
An Moxue assigned tasks to the three of them, and with Old Ma supervising the construction on site, she and Wu Sicheng drove off, their first stop being the Overseas Chinese Store.
Upon arriving at their destination, An Moxue got out of the car and said to Wu Sicheng, "Let's go! Let's see if there are any exquisite longevity locks and bracelets here."
Wu Sicheng smiled gently: "Yes, you can buy anything you like. I'll pay today." They rarely went shopping together, and he cherished every opportunity.
The clerk at the door was also good at reading people. This man had been buying a refrigerator, a rice cooker, and a washing machine here yesterday, and he came again today. They didn't even check their remittance certificates before letting him in.
An Moxue's surprise flashed by, and she then teased Wu Sicheng with her eyes. He felt very uncomfortable under her blatant gaze and surrendered, "Moxue, let me make it clear beforehand, I just bought a few big items yesterday, which may have made her remember it, but that's all."
An Moxue teased, "I didn't say anything! Look at you! It's not that serious!"
Wu Sicheng relented, "Is it really necessary? Absolutely not! This concerns my innocence and my feelings for you, it's very important!"
An Moxue glared at him: "Watch your words and the occasion."
Wu Sicheng didn't feel that An Moxue's glance was a warning to him, but rather like a coaxing gesture, as he said soothingly, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Whatever you say goes."
The two of them actually found a set of exquisite silver jewelry at the jewelry counter, including a longevity lock and a bracelet.
"Could you please bring this set out for me?" An Moxue said to the salesperson, "Do you have any similar styles and sizes?"
The waiter took out the jewelry and said, "Yes, but would you like to take a look?"
"Okay, please bring them all. If you're satisfied, I'll buy a few more sets."
Upon hearing this, the waiter was overjoyed and hurried to fetch the items.
Not far behind Wu Sicheng and his group, two young girls were talking. One of them whispered to the other, "Jingjing, look, isn't that Brother Wu? The girl next to him looks unfamiliar." Although she tried her best to hide the jealousy and resentment in her eyes, her expression betrayed her. However, the girl next to her didn't seem to notice.
"Yes, it's Brother Wu. I don't know that girl, and I've never seen her before." Just then, An Mo turned to ask Wu Sicheng for his opinion on Yin Suo, allowing the two girls to see her profile.
The girl called Jingjing said, "Come on, how can we not say hello to Brother Wu when we see him!" Her words sounded nice, but her fiery eyes betrayed her.
No one could remain unmoved by An Moxue's beauty, especially the two girls, each with their own ulterior motives and feelings for Wu Sicheng; they were even more restless.
"Brother Wu!" A gentle voice, tinged with a hint of surprise, interrupted An Moxue and Wu Sicheng's selection. However, even before An Moxue turned around, the voice sounded strangely off; sometimes a woman's intuition is terrifyingly accurate. She glanced at Wu Sicheng with a half-smile, and together they turned around.
Wu Sicheng's somewhat uncertain voice rang out, "Excuse me, are you calling me?"
An Moxue inwardly scoffed, "Serves you right for pretending! You must know this girl." But on her face, she maintained a perfectly gentle smile.
The girl felt a chill in her heart and was also embarrassed. Anyone who heard her tone would think that she and the person she was calling must be very familiar with each other. But now, judging from the man's words, it seemed that he didn't even know her. How could she save face!
An Moxue saw the girl's expression change from initial surprise to disbelief, then to a distorted expression, and finally to a smile. Upon closer inspection, one could also see that there was a hint of forced strength in that smile.
The girl next to her was both gloating and delighted.
"Yes, I'm sure of it. They're all bad news!" An Moxue concluded in her mind, and then waited for Wu Sicheng to respond.
"Brother Wu, how come you didn't recognize me? Maybe I'm dressed too elegantly today, unlike my usual simple attire. I'm the granddaughter of Grandpa Li from the military compound! My grandfather heard you were back in the compound a few days ago and said he wanted to discuss our two families' marriage with your elders!" After the girl finished speaking, she blushed and lowered her head shyly.
The girl next to her was clearly taken aback by the information in her words, and asked in surprise, "Jingjing, are you telling the truth? I didn't hear you say that!" Then she stared intently at the girl, afraid of missing the important expression on her face.
"How can I speak carelessly about things that haven't been decided yet?" The girl shyly glanced at Wu Sicheng, her eyes full of allure, and also glanced at An Moxue, her thoughts completely revealed. These actions were all seen by An Moxue and Wu Sicheng.
An Moxue watched the show from the sidelines, clearly having no intention of intervening. Wu Sicheng wasn't annoyed; he glanced at An Moxue with a doting look, his eyes filled with helpless indulgence.
That one glance ignited a burning jealousy in the two girls opposite, who wished they could devour An Moxue.
Then, when he looked at the girl opposite him, the coldness in his eyes seemed to freeze her to death on the spot.
Wu Sicheng no longer looked at the girl opposite him with the eyes of a stranger, but with the eyes of an enemy. "Young lady, are you sure you've mistaken me for someone else? The woman next to me is my fiancée. She has the approval of my family elders, including my grandfather, my father, my mother, and my uncle. Please watch your words, or I won't hesitate to call the police."
Jingjing and the girl next to her were clearly surprised by Wu Sicheng's words, their faces filled with disbelief.
Seeing that they hadn't left yet, Wu Sicheng said to An Moxue, "See! All sorts of random people are crowding around me. I have to go home later and have my grandfather issue a formal statement. These days, isn't a man's reputation important too? How dare they insult me like this! Who is this? I don't even know her, yet she's sticking up to me. You'd better protect me." There was a hint of grievance in the last sentence.
An Moxue remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she cursed Wu Sicheng, thinking, "He's trying to take advantage of me again! He's always dreaming! And his fiancée! How come I didn't know?"
The saleswoman behind her stared, her eyes gleaming with gossip. She glanced at Wu Sicheng, then at An Moxue, and then at the two girls opposite her. Hmm! These two next to her were a better match!
The girl named Jingjing was completely dumbfounded. She didn't expect Wu Sicheng to say such things so bluntly, especially when her friends were around. She felt even more embarrassed and broke free from her friends and ran away.
The remaining girls looked at An Moxue and then at Wu Sicheng, gritted their teeth, and chased after her.
Wu Sicheng turned to look at An Moxue, and said with some grievance, "Moxue, look, this is the consequence of you not giving me a title. There are always some people who want to climb up to me, all kinds of dirty and filthy people. Why don't you think about it and marry me!"
