Some people have this inexplicable confidence that they are the best in the world and that no one would reject them.
That's probably what the girl was thinking, and it was written all over her face.
Rong Xu was really overwhelmed by being surrounded by so many people.
"Please have some self-respect, young lady. This is my fiancé." Lu Qingsi stood in front of Rong Xu, looking at the group warily.
Lu Ming's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. What nonsense was this little brat spouting? She had just said they were friends, and in the blink of an eye, she had suddenly become his fiancé.
Rong Xu knew that Lu Qingsi was trying to help him out of a difficult situation, so he didn't expose her. Instead, he smiled and seemed to agree.
The girl was extremely disappointed, but seemed unwilling to give up. Lu Qingsi was tired of being pestered by these people, so she immediately disappeared with the two of them.
The three people vanished into thin air, which startled the group once again.
"These three people, could they also be monsters?" a thin, frail old man said tremblingly, causing many people to panic.
"Don't make wild guesses," said the middle-aged man in the lead. "Those three people must be gods who came down to earth to save us from our predicament."
"Yes, yes, yes, it must be a deity."
"Oh no, oh no, we've offended some deity! They must be angry when we pushed those two in. They told us the monster was dead, but we were so ungrateful and tried to test them with them."
...
These people talked amongst themselves, and in the end, they actually decided to gild the statues of the three of them and burn incense and make offerings to them every day.
So, without the knowledge of the three of them, they silently gained a batch of faith power.
In a moment of panic, Lu Qingsi immediately took the three of them away from there. When they reappeared, they were by a stream.
Lu Qingsi blushed as she looked at Rong Xu: "I'm sorry, I saw that you wanted to reject her, so I told you a lie."
“It’s alright,” Rong Xu said, looking at Lu Ming. “As long as Brother Lu doesn’t mind.”
Lu Ming gritted his teeth. Lu Qingsi was his sister; how could he not care?
However, since Lu Qingsi said these words herself, Lu Ming could only sulk on the sidelines.
However, Lu Ming still glared at Lu Qingsi.
After seeing Lu Ming glare at her, Lu Qingsi looked at Rong Xu apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't know where you were going, I was afraid you would suddenly bring me here."
Lu Ming: You're driving me crazy! Do you even understand what your brother is thinking? I mean, why did you have to get yourself involved when you lent him the money?
"It's alright. I didn't bring much luggage with me. Even if I came here with you, it wouldn't be a problem to leave all that stuff behind." Seeing the guilty look on Lu Qingsi's face, Rong Xu said, "I'm just wandering around here. I haven't decided where to go yet. I was wondering if I could come with you?"
After Rong Xu finished speaking, he immediately felt that he had come up with a good idea.
Lu Ming was the first to disagree: "It seems we're not from the same sect, so it's best to avoid being together."
Rong Xu smiled and said, "Brother Lu's words seem to show some prejudice against people from different sects. I wonder if your sect's elders also think so? I will definitely have my master ask them about it."
Lu Ming dared not admit to these words, because if word got out, it would not do him any good and would probably make some people more hostile towards him.
“I don’t have any prejudice, but I’m afraid your master, Rong Xu, won’t agree.”
