While dodging Zhan Guyao's attack, listening to Zhan Roudai's crying and Zhan Nishang's unbelievable heartfelt words, Qi Yan felt that he was a scumbag.
Zhan Roudai is shameless, and her father is also a fool?
"Uncle Zhan! Don't lose face in front of the young people!" Qi Yan said angrily with a bad face and tone after dodging an attack from Zhan Guyao.
If you don't get angry, do you really think you are a soft persimmon? You can pinch it at will?
Zhan Guyao chuckled: "If you marry Roudai, nothing will happen!"
"Uncle Zhan! What are you doing!" Qi Yan glared and said, "You knew that the second lady has nothing to do with me, but you did this. Are you forcing me, Qi Yan, to submit?"
Zhan Guyao said nothing, and increased the range of attack, leaving Qi Yan with no way to escape.
——This is clearly tacit consent!
Qi Yan cursed the shamelessness of the father and daughter in his heart, but in front of so many noble families, he couldn't draw his sword and confront his seniors. For a moment, the situation was deadlocked, and Qi Yan could only dodge, looking a little wolfish.
Suddenly, his father's figure flashed in front of his eyes, looking particularly handsome and unrestrained.
"Master Zhan, this is not good for my son, right?" Qi Qianxing drew his sword and blocked Zhan Guyao's attack: "The second lady of the Zhan family has nothing to do with my son. You came to my house to propose marriage a few days ago, but I rejected you. What? Did you forget so quickly?"
"You--!" Zhan Guyao didn't expect Qi Qianxing to say that so naturally. Now, the other noble families are clear about it.
He failed to propose marriage, but wanted the power of the Qi family, so he could only use this trick to force it on the Qi family.
Cheng Zhu was protected behind the fighter and sneered at Zhan Roudai: "I thought Brother Qi Yan really let her down, but I didn't expect him to use this trick, so despicable!"
Cheng Ke glanced at her and his face was also very embarrassed: after all, he admired Zhan Roudai very much before...
Rong Ansheng stared at the situation on the demon-slaying platform closely, his hand on the sword at his waist. Cheng Ke saw it and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"To prevent accidents."
"Forget it, the Demon Cult Leader is obviously watching the show at this moment. The Zhan family is really something, they don't even feel ashamed."
"We are not looking at the Demon Cult Leader." Rong Ansheng glanced at him indifferently: "Didn't you notice that the Demon Cult Leader was the one who broke into the private room and interrupted our meal that day."
"...What?" Cheng Ke squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and found that it was true, and stuttered for a moment, "Then, then Brother Qi said that the man and he are close friends... Is it true?"
Rong Ansheng nodded, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as close friends."
Cheng Ke couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it, "Then what are you doing..."
"If a fight really breaks out, who will you help?" Rong Ansheng suddenly asked coldly.
Cheng Ke was stunned and silent for a long while before he said, "I... don't know, but I want to help Brother Qi."
Rong Ansheng looked at him in agreement and nodded, "What a coincidence, I thought so too."
The Zhan family had played a big game this time. If they hadn't been able to get close to the Qi family, the Zhan family's reputation in Cangyun Continent would definitely be affected in the future. And after this incident, if Zhan Roudai hadn't married Qi Yan, her reputation would have been ruined, and she might not be able to get married in this life.
The Zhan family's patriarch and the Qi family's patriarch had a big fight, and no one dared to step forward.
Qi Yan, who had gotten some free time, hadn't waited to rest for a while before the leisurely voice of the bone repairman over there reached his ears.
"What a wolf, Master Qi."
Qi Yan's face froze, and he brushed the dust off his sleeves without saying a word.
Lou Guxiu's face darkened instantly, and he took two or three steps forward, his deep eyes fixed on Qi Yan's expression.
"What? You don't want to talk to me?"
Qi Yan turned around and wanted to leave, but Lou Guxiu grabbed his arm.
"Aren't we close friends? Why are you so cold when you meet your close friends?"
"Lou Guxiu." Qi Yan suddenly said in a faint voice: "Is this the first time I call you by your name? It's really...unpleasant."
Lou Guxiu's eyes narrowed, and the hand that was holding his arm also tightened.
Qi Yan felt pain but did not show it, and continued: "My feelings are against common sense, so I will put them away. You are still your leader, and I am still my Master Qi, what's wrong with that?" "You
want to throw it away?" Lou Guxiu laughed, and laughed wildly: "Put aside that you said you liked me?"
Qi Yan's face suddenly turned pale, and seeing Lou Guxiu's smile, he trembled even more.
"Do you want to ridicule me? Then come on, it doesn't matter."
It was Qi Yan's nonchalant attitude that made Lou Guxiu speak so bluntly.
- Unsatisfied, dissatisfied! This was the man who said he liked me, but now he acted as if it didn't matter. How could he do that! He wouldn't allow it! Even if he didn't respond, he couldn't ignore him like this!
[Lou Guxiu's favorability towards Qi Yan +20, current favorability: 60]
"I've never tried to cut off my sleeves." The corners of Lou Guxiu's mouth still had that frivolous arc, but the smile did not reach his eyes, and he was more indifferent: "Why don't you accompany me to try it, Master Qi?"
Qi Yan shook off his arm and took a step back to keep a distance: "Please treat Nichang well, Master."
"Zhan Nichang? Oh, by the way, if you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten... She is the person you like, and she likes you too."
Lou Guxiu said this with a changed mood. I don't know how much sourness there is in these words, but it was because of Zhan Nichang before, but now it is because of Qi Yan.
Qi Yan's expression did not change: "Nichang is my sister, if you don't believe it, I can't help it."
This attitude again! Does he really not miss the past at all!
[Lou Gu Xiu's favorability towards Qi Yan +10, current favorability: 70]
[Lou Gu Xiu's darkening degree +10, current: 10]
Qi Yan: ...? ? ? [Black question mark]
What the hell, when did this darkening degree appear? !
[Host, please note that although the situation is urgent, it must be explained that after the system is updated, the darkening degree will appear. Please handle it properly. After the darkening degree reaches 50, the mission will be automatically considered a failure.]
...
Fuck your darkening degree! I don't want to play anymore!
...Although Qi Yan thought so in his heart, he still had to face this situation obediently.
Seeing that Lou Guxiu's eyes were filled with anger and about to burst out, Qi Yan pursed his lips, lowered his head and whispered: "Be good to Nichang, you and I are not destined to be together, I want to forget, you just pretend it's nothing..."
Seeing Qi Yan soften his attitude, Lou Guxiu's anger gradually dissipated.
"If I say..."
"What are you doing."
A cold voice suddenly interrupted, Qi Yan and Lou Guxiu looked at the same time, only to see Zhan Nichang smiling and looking at the two of them indifferently.
As if he was caught cheating, Qi Yan silently took a step back to keep his distance, while Lou Guxiu showed an impatient expression.
"This is not your business, just do your duty."
"Duty?" Zhan Nishang chuckled, as if it was a matter of course, "This is my duty, I found out that my husband's lover is actually my childhood sweetheart."
Such explicit words made Qi Yan's face even worse, especially the word "lover", as if to show that she, Zhan Nishang, is the legal wife, and he, Qi Yan...
is something worse than a concubine.
