Chapter 1020 The Young Lady Wants to Elope (for "The Dao Sect Who Loves Sichuan Black Tea")

Ye Xiaoman wanted to smash the broken stone right away. She broke into tears, "I asked on the spot, and the people at Yue Lao Temple clearly said that there would be no additional fees besides the money that should be deducted!"

According to Ye Xiaoman's understanding, apart from the money spent on buying the marriage certificate and matchmaking, there will be no other expenses!

Sikong Qing clapped his hands and laughed heartily, "You were engaged to someone, but you didn't marry them. That's tantamount to violating the contract with the Yue Lao God. Isn't that the money that should be deducted?"

Ye Xiaoman's legs softened, and she slowly fell to her knees. She beat her chest and stamped her feet, "I'm going to fight this world that loves playing word games!"

Although it is said that if you walk on the shore often, your feet will get wet, but you can't wash away her slippers.

She had wanted to disappear before, but this time her money was in her hands. If she ran away from the marriage, she would lose 80% of her wealth. Would she dare to run away?

This is a burden that a miser cannot bear.

She had a feeling that the Sea King's luck was about to end, and the Heavenly Dao saw that she was too bad and finally took action to check and balance her.

Ye Xiaoman covered her face and wailed.

She was so angry that she couldn't speak.

The eight men wanted to laugh when they saw Ye Xiaoman's distraught look, but they were too embarrassed to laugh out loud.

Zhu Chuideng walked forward, knelt on one knee beside her, and with a smile, took Ye Xiaoman, who was slumped on the ground, into his arms.

"I won't restrict you after we get married. You can still have fun like before marriage."

"Just think of it as accompanying us to a ceremony."

Ye Xiaoman leaned on Zhu Chuideng's shoulder with lifeless eyes.

"Uncle, you don't understand."

Zhu Chuideng said with a smile: "Tell me what I don't understand."

Getting married is a fatal blow to every Aquaman.

Once you get married, it means being bound by an invisible net. This is human nature. Before marriage, they say they agree to let you continue to have fun after marriage, but after obtaining legal status, they will secretly use this identity to control you.

Ye Xiaoman said, "The reasons behind this are complicated, but I just don't want to get married."

Zhu Chuideng had always been obedient to Ye Xiaoman. He sighed and said, "Then let's not get married."

The men fell silent and looked at Ye Xiaoman.

Ye Xiaoman gritted her teeth and said, "Get married! We must get married!"

Yue Mushan immediately jumped up with joy, "When will the wedding be held?"

Ye Xiaoman was in a miserable state, while the men were happily discussing the preparations for the wedding.

Xiao Chujing immediately took out the perpetual calendar he had purchased from Yue Lao Temple and looked up the date. "If we speed up the preparations, we can finish the fundraising in a month and a half at the earliest."

"There happens to be an auspicious day in the middle of next month."

Jiaying raised a key question: "Where will the wedding be held?"

All men hope to hold the wedding in the place where they were born, so that they can show their fellow countrymen how good they are and shut up all those who are jealous of them.

Jiaying immediately answered his own question: "The scenery in the Divine Realm is most pleasant in late summer and early autumn. Why not get married there?"

At this moment, he thought of Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming. "The Divine Emperor, King Rui, and I are all from the Divine Realm. We account for three of the eight people, so we should be the leaders."

Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming both expressed their agreement.

Sikong was unhappy.

"Xiao Chujing, I, and... the Demon God, there are three of us. Why didn't you say you were coming to the Demon Realm?"

Even if Yue Mushan only has one partner, he will still fight for it. "My mother and father have already prepared everything, and we can get married soon. It would be better to get married in the demon world instead of waiting too long and making things complicated."

Ye Xiaoman was disheartened. The men were arguing about the wedding venue, but she couldn't muster up any enthusiasm and just joined in. Anywhere would be fine.

Zhu Chuideng did not join the discussion. No matter where the wedding was held, he would not choose the ghost world. He hoped to give Ye Xiaoman a wedding full of sunshine and flowers.

Seeing Ye Xiaoman sitting on the ground like a cat lying on the ground, he said gently, "Can I take you downstairs to rest?"

Ye Xiaoman put her arms around Zhu Chuideng's neck, buried her head in the crook of his neck, sniffing the warm and dry scent on his skin, and said sullenly, "I'm too depressed. I don't have the strength to walk. Please carry me."

Zhu Chuideng picked up Ye Xiaoman indulgently.

He was very tall, and when I was held in his arms, my vision suddenly rose, and I always felt that I was very close to the ceiling.

Zhu Chuideng shook her slightly higher as if to please a child.

When he was taking care of his nephews and nieces, they loved being lifted up like this. They could pick fruit from the trees and catch cicadas. The children's laughter and shouting were so shrill and noisy that they often gave him a headache.

Ye Xiaoman felt the wind whistling past her face, and then fell steadily back into Zhu Chuideng's arms, as free as the wind. She was a playful person, and immediately forgot her sadness about her upcoming marriage. She patted Zhu Chuideng's shoulder and gave him orders.

"Throw it higher."

The two of them walked out of the meeting room playfully. The men stopped discussing and looked at their backs. Because Zhu Chuideng was on duty tonight, no one stopped them from leaving.

The meeting hall was left behind, and the sounds of the men arguing over the venue gradually became blurred until they could no longer be heard.

Ye Xiaoman looked back, her eyes rolling around. She leaned on Zhu Chuideng's shoulder and said to him, "Let's elope."

Zhu Chuideng laughed when he heard this.

The big trees were connected by wooden bridges one after another, and walking on them would produce a slight shaking feeling. He walked while holding Ye Xiaoman, trying to walk steadily to prevent her from feeling dizzy.

Ye Xiaoman couldn't wait for his response, so she hugged his neck and acted coquettishly.

"Is it alright, Zhu Chuideng?"

Zhu Chuideng then lowered his eyes and looked at Ye Xiaoman in his arms.

Ye Xiaoman smiled at him, revealing a sly smile that he was all too familiar with.

Zhu Chuideng could tell at a glance that she was planning something again.

Zhu Chuideng smiled and asked, "What evil plan are you planning again, little girl?"

Ye Xiaoman tutted her words, touched the tip of her nose, and said as if she was wronged, "I just want to be alone with you. I'm tired of seeing other people."

She said softly, "We haven't had time to spend together since you came back."

Zhu Chuideng knew that Ye Xiaoman was trying to make trouble.

As long as something makes her unhappy, she will definitely retaliate.

Even if she has to get married in the end, she will try to escape and make everyone in the family mad. She will be happy only when she can.

Zhu Chuideng also knew that from a rational perspective, he should now stand on the same front as all men and restrain Ye Xiaoman from running away.

She is such a clever person. If she is set free for a moment, she might really be able to figure out a way to crack the marriage certificate from Yue Lao.

Zhu Chuideng said "hmm" nonchalantly.

Ye Xiaoman immediately said sadly: "Uncle Deng, do you not love me anymore? If I had said I wanted to elope with you before, you would have been very happy."

Zhu Chuideng saw through her disguise: "You only came to me because you saw that I have a high level of cultivation and can help you escape successfully."

Ye Xiaoman wasn't embarrassed at all after her plan was exposed. "Then can I also go find Jing Zhui? You see, I didn't even look for Jing Zhui."

Zhu Chuideng said, "Jing Zhui is easily tricked. If he keeps you company for just a few days, his whereabouts will be exposed."

Although he said this, Ye Xiaoman could see that the corners of his mouth could not help but rise because of her words.

So she increased her coquettishness, twisting and turning in his arms, shaking his neck and clinging to him, agreeing: "Zhu Chu Deng, Zhu Chu Deng~"

Zhu Chuideng could never refuse Ye Xiaoman's coquettishness. After a while, he sighed helplessly and said, "Where are you going?"

Then he asked her, "When are you going to leave?"

Ye Xiaoman was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

"Xiao Chujing and the others will definitely be arguing all night tonight. Now is the time when their guard is at its lowest. Let's go now!"

"You must run out of the demon world with me first."

Zhu Chuideng nodded obediently, like a groom beside a willful young lady.

He cooperated unconditionally with whatever the eldest lady instructed him to do.

"What happens after leaving the demon world?"

Ye Xiaoman was very satisfied with Zhu Chuideng's obedience, so she decided to reward him a little.

"I plan to travel the Six Realms when I have some free time, but right now, there's no place in particular I want to go."

"Just go wherever uncle wants to go."

"How about I go with you?"
