Gu Jian was immediately surprised, then a smile appeared on his face. Lin Shiyu was indeed protected by a Saint-level expert.
At this moment, the aura of a Saint-level being spread out.
Ye Chen also felt the pressure and danger.
His face also looked uglier than ever before.
The Queen of Flowers' expression changed, and she blocked Ye Chen's path, saying towards the beaded curtain, "Queen Shiyu, please calm down. Do not hurt Ye Xiaofan."
Behind the beaded curtain, Lin Shiyu's voice was sorrowful yet tinged with coldness as she said, "I just want him to keep his promise. Whether he gets hurt or killed is up to him."
"King of Flowers, you are also one of the Eight Kings. I hope you can make him keep his promise to avoid any unpleasantness!"
She had promised Du Dafu that she would seek justice for him.
Moreover, Du Dafu's behavior made her somewhat selfish and unable to resist wanting to stand on his side.
Ye Chen's face instantly turned a deep liver color.
The Queen of Flowers also looked grim. After assessing the situation, she suggested to Ye Chen, "Ye Xiaofan, since you promised him, why not keep your word?"
"Even if you call him father, in my heart you are still a man of your word!"
Ye Chen's body trembled.
I glanced at the androgynous, flower-faced woman in the "Overlord Flower King" photo.
If Ye Chen hadn't known that the Queen of Flowers was lusting after his body, he would have almost thought that she truly loved him.
However, having come this far, Ye Chen knew that if he didn't keep his promise, he would definitely not be able to get through this ordeal!
Ye Chen felt deeply humiliated.
But in the end, he made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and said to Gu Jian, "I, Ye Xiaofan, admire Du Dafu's talent. If you don't mind, I, Ye Xiaofan, am willing to become your godfather!"
After saying that, he knelt down on one knee before Gu Jian.
The people present smiled, seemingly happy for Ye Chen, and even somewhat envious of him.
He could even recognize Du Dafu as his father.
But Gu Jian's lips twitched.
Damn it.
He clearly wanted to humiliate Ye Chen, but these words somehow reminded him of Lü Bu, who had stabbed his adoptive father.
Bian Daque was overjoyed, winking at Gu Jian and saying, "Big brother, he called you that! He called you godfather! That idiot Ye Xiaofan finally called you 'father'! Hahaha..."
Long Jun was also very excited, his eyes shining, and said, "Master, this kid actually knelt down. In front of so many people, it's utterly embarrassing. It's hilarious!"
Gu Jian nodded with a smile, also feeling that Ye Chen had embarrassed himself.
This is the chosen one of destiny.
But Gu Jian absolutely did not want to acknowledge the idea of a godfather.
After all, the halberd of a certain adopted son was specifically used to stab his adoptive father.
It made Gu Jian unable to help but make connections.
Considering Ye Chen's unwillingness, Gu Jian decided to humiliate him again.
He looked down at him and said with a smile, "Ye Chen, you can just call me Dad. There's no need to make a big deal out of it by calling me Godfather."
"Besides, you're too stupid and don't deserve to be my son. But since you're so sincere, I'll reluctantly accept you."
"Remember, from now on, you have to call me 'Dad' every time you see me. Understand?"
"you!"
Ye Chen trembled with shame upon hearing this.
He was forced by circumstances to call out to him.
He actually wants him to call out to him every time he sees him?
Ye Chen's composure immediately crumbled.
"You despicable Du Dafu, I, Ye Chen, will kill your entire family!"
Ye Chen roared inwardly, but finally nodded without saying a word.
After rising with a humiliated expression, he bid farewell to Queen Lin Shiyu and then turned and left.
For Ye Chen, this time he had lost face completely.
He no longer had the face to stay at the poetry gathering.
And without a doubt, from today onwards, he will become the talk of the town and a source of amusement for the people of the Netherworld.
While feeling humiliated, Ye Chen also felt heartache.
He knew perfectly well that the first place in the poetry competition would undoubtedly fall into the hands of Du Dafu.
Du Dafu will become the Queen's intimate guest.
He wondered what would happen to them afterward, something that would make him envious and jealous.
In short, this time, Ye Chen lost not only his dignity, but also a perfect woman like Lin Shiyu.
After Ye Chen left, the Queen of Flowers also took her leave.
She could tell that Ye Xiaofan was hurt, and she wanted to "comfort" his wounded heart.
The poetry gathering did not end with their departure.
Behind the beaded curtain, Queen Lin Shiyu looked at the talented men present and asked, "Gentlemen, who else would like to compose a poem this round?"
The talented men looked at each other, but none of them stepped forward.
Finally, the Kidney Deficiency Prince, as the representative, said to Queen Lin Shiyu, "Queen Shiyu, we concede defeat!"
"Mr. Zimei is a man of great talent, and we really do not have the courage to compete with him."
Nanse Nanyouji also stepped forward and said, "That's right, Du Zimei deserves first place in the poetry competition!"
"Of all the talents in the world, ten bushels are worth of talent, but I believe Du Fu alone possesses nine."
"Indeed, none of us want to invite humiliation upon ourselves..."
One talented man after another echoed his sentiments.
Behind the beaded curtain, Lin Shiyu nodded slightly, then said softly with a smile, "In that case, I will announce the results of this poetry gathering."
"Du Dafu is number one."
"Mr. Du Zimei will become a guest of honor in my bedchamber."
As she spoke, Queen Lin Shiyu seemed to recall something, and a blush crept onto her alluring face beneath her veil.
"Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes today's poetry gathering. Later, everyone who participated will receive a beautiful gift."
"Mr. Du Zimei, please come into the inner hall and have a chat with me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A smile appeared on Gu Jian's face.
The talented men present were filled with envy.
As gentlemen, everyone understands the concept of "guests in private."
Even so, this was the first time Queen Lin Shiyu had taken in a guest of honor.
“Niu Que, A Long, wait for me here for a moment.”
Gu Jian spoke to Bian Daque and Long Jun.
Bian Daque was immediately surprised and asked, "Brother, will it be ready in a moment?"
Gu Jian was slightly taken aback before he understood what he meant.
His lips twitched. Damn, this guy's a pro too.
Gu Jian said, "With my abilities, three days and three nights would not be a problem."
Bian Daque's eyes widened immediately, and he said, "As expected of my elder brother, a true iron-blooded man!"
Long Jun was also full of admiration, "Master, you are truly a man of iron will. Your subordinate admires you!"
Gu Jian's lips twitched again.
"A true man of iron will"—such an ancient title reminded him of Brother Zeng.
Gu Jian was about to head towards the beaded curtain when a soft, jade-like hand suddenly grabbed him.
"Jian'er".
A gentle, tender voice entered Gu Jian's mind.
Gu Jian turned around and saw Feng Yantong.
To his surprise, Feng Yantong had a somewhat worried look on her face.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Jian asked.
Feng Yantong bit her soft, sexy red lips, hesitated, and then whispered, "Be careful, don't let that vixen be bewitched."
