Si Chao was stunned for a moment. In fact, the place where he was standing would not be hurt at all.
The target of this trap was not an ordinary killer, but his nephew who took the initiative to train in the Dark Guard Camp and learned martial arts.
He was pulled forward by the girl, and all he could see was her flying black hair.
The scent of camellia lingered around him, and his heart was filled with joy.
They ran all the way to a dilapidated temple, and then they stopped panting.
"Here, here we should be unable to catch up."
He looked at the sweat on her forehead and suddenly laughed out loud.
Tu Qingyu frowned and looked at him, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm just happy that you care about me."
After he finished speaking, he kept staring at her. Sure enough, she looked uncomfortable for a moment, looking away, left and right, but not at him.
"I, I just saw that you were being bullied by so many people..."
"Really?" He looked confused. "If it were someone else, would you do the same?"
She immediately retorted, “Of course not.”
Then he muttered, "There's no one I run into every time I go out..."
He had been practicing martial arts since he was young and had very good hearing, so he naturally heard it.
Unable to suppress a smile on his face, he raised his hand and bowed deeply, "Thank you again, Miss Tu San, for saving my life."
"No, that's not necessary. Since you are no longer in danger, I will go back first."
After she finished speaking, she raised her foot to leave, but Si Chao grabbed her wrist.
She turned her head and they looked at each other unexpectedly. She seemed to be burned by the other's scorching eyes and quickly looked away.
She struggled with her wrist, but couldn't get it free. She looked up at him and glared, "What do you want?"
"Chai, will you accept it?" He smiled. "Today is the second time you've saved me. Are you really not going to accept my thank you gift?"
"If your thank you gift has no other meaning, I don't mind accepting it."
"Then your lunch has no other meaning."
"You've already said it, I can't be one."
He let go of her hand, feeling somewhat lost. "Do you really think I'm so indifferent to you? Even though we're so destined to be together."
If she doesn't soften her attitude, don't blame him for using force.
Tu Qingyu lowered her head, the tips of her ears turning red. "It's not that I don't want to accept you, but my mother has already found a suitable husband for me. You are... a businessman, my parents may not agree, and besides..."
He raised an eyebrow, "Anything else?"
For merchants, this is not a problem at all.
"And your age..." She hesitated for a moment, then spoke again, "You look young, but that's just how it looks. My father isn't much older than you."
No matter how well he takes care of himself, he is still an old man.
At this moment, the smile on the man's mouth disappeared.
"Are you... unhappy?" She tilted her head slightly.
Just this one move made Si Chao's heart hang in the air again.
He took a deep breath, "You said before that if two people love each other, they don't care about these empty things..."
"I don't care, but my parents do. They gave birth to me and raised me, so I can't ignore their wishes."
Si Chao didn't care. Parents, what are those?
If two people love each other, they only want each other.
If he really couldn't make her willingly do it, then he would have no choice but to reveal his identity and ask her to enter the palace.
Just as I was about to say something, the girl's voice rang in my ears again.
"But my parents have always loved me, so I will ask them for help." She lowered her head, shyly speaking softly, "Whether you're old or a businessman, I don't care. There's only one thing..."
"What?" he asked hurriedly.
She raised her head and said, "You are a businessman and you are old. I can try to convince my parents of all these things. The only thing is that you and your wife are already dead. If I marry into your family, I will be a concubine. They may not agree easily."
"You might encounter some difficulties then."
"This is unavoidable. The truth is, you and I love each other, but I can't abandon my family and elope for you. This is the best I can do."
Si Chao was simply overjoyed, "You, you like me..."
"Since we met, I see you every time I go out. I guess our fate is destined."
"Yes, you're right!"
She looked up, as if she had made a great decision. "After I go to the flower viewing banquet at the prefect's house, I hope you will come to my house to formally propose marriage. My last name is Tu, and my father is Tu Zhao, the magistrate of Wuling County."
"Are you the county magistrate's daughter?" He acted very surprised.
"Yeah." She nodded. "I hope Wulang won't betray me or lie to me. I hate being lied to the most in my life."
His smile paused, his heart sinking slightly, "What would you do if someone cheated you?"
"It depends on the situation. If it's something important and he deceives me, and I can't do anything about it, then I'll hide away and never see him again."
She tilted her head back and reached out to gently touch his handsome eyebrows. "You won't lie to me, right?"
"If I lied to you..."
"Are you hiding something from me?"
"No."
"That's good."
She held out her hand, "Here."
"What?" He was a little confused.
"Hairpin." All the stock in the previous world space was used up. I saved some later, but it wasn't much.
The world is about to start over.
Stock up on some gold; you'll always need it.
He smiled and took out a hairpin from his bosom, "How did you know I had it with me?"
"I guessed it!" Her bright eyes were full of pride.
He really loved her smug and arrogant look.
She took the hairpin and looked at it carefully. "It is indeed beautiful. Who was it originally intended for?"
"I wanted to give it to you from the beginning. I didn't know when I would see you again, but it's always good to be prepared. What if I see you again?"
"Put it on me." She handed the hairpin to him and lowered her head slightly.
When Si Chao put the pearl hairpin on her, his hands were shaking a little. After putting it on, he tidied her hair which was messed up because of her escape.
After putting it on, she turned around and asked, "Does it look good?"
"You look great! I've never seen anyone more beautiful than you."
Tu Qingyu looked at his stunned expression and said with a smile: "Have you ever heard of a saying?"
"What?"
"All love at first sight is actually..." She didn't say the rest of the sentence.
He automatically took it, "Are you attracted by her beauty?"
"You said that, not me."
"I admit it." He took her hand, and seeing that she didn't object, they began to walk slowly outside. "You are indeed very beautiful, but I don't just look at the appearance."
"Then what are you looking at?"
He turned his head to look at the smile on the corner of her mouth without saying anything.
