“Aren’t you very capable? Didn’t you come to break off the engagement? Now our Clan Chief and Madam already know, so you can leave. If I’m being impolite, then get out!” Granny Yu said, looking at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu looked at Shangshu Yu, “Granny, I didn’t know it was Senior Sister before, that’s why I said I wanted to break off the engagement. Knowing it’s Senior Sister, you could kill me and I still wouldn’t come to break off the engagement.”
“Now the Clan Chief and Madam are very unhappy, and they told you to get out!” Granny Yu said, looking at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu looked at Shangshu Yu, “How about Senior Sister comes with me?”
Shangshu Yu looked at Qin Chu, then fell into thought. “Are you trying to turn the world upside down?! Aren’t you going to apologize and admit your mistake? Yu’er, you aren’t really planning to elope with this kid, are you?” After hearing Qin Chu’s words and seeing Shangshu Yu remain silent, Granny Yu became depressed. What was going on? Were they still not convinced?
“What are you saying, Granny? I was thinking about how to keep Father and Mother from getting angry!” A blush appeared on Shangshu Yu’s face, because just now, she really did have the thought of leaving with Qin Chu.
“Qin Chu, go and apologize properly, and the matter will be over. Granny also thinks highly of you, so I hope you two can be together,” Granny Yu said.
Afterward, led by Granny Yu, Qin Chu and Shangshu Yu arrived at the garden.
Upon reaching the garden, Qin Chu and Shangshu Yu greeted the elders separately.
“Clan Chief, it was Qin Chu who was blind. At that time, I didn’t know it was you, so I came to apologize to you,” Qin Chu bowed to Shangshu Tianye.
Shangshu Tianye looked at Qin Chu, “Kid, this seat remembers very clearly, at that time you lectured this seat until I was utterly humiliated. What did you say? Oh, right, you sell Medicinal Pills, and you must abide by your rules. Now this is this seat’s territory, so shouldn’t things be done according to this seat’s rules?”
“Yes, according to your rules?” Qin Chu nodded.
“This seat hasn’t thought it through yet. You stand for a while. Yu’er, come sit!” Shangshu Tianye called out to Shangshu Yu.
“Father, Qin Chu is Yu’er’s Junior Brother. He made a mistake, and your daughter also bears responsibility. It’s fine to be punished together!” Shangshu Yu was very loyal and didn’t abandon Qin Chu.
Shangshu Tianye looked at his daughter, then reached out and pointed at Qin Chu, “You’re ruthless. Your grandfather is here today, so this seat is too embarrassed to kick you, but this beating, this seat has noted it down!”
Zhen Han smiled and then had Qin Chu and Shangshu Yu take their seats.
“Qin Chu, you are a good child, but in the future, you must be cautious in your actions and not act recklessly on impulse. Have you liked her for a long time?” Zhen Han pointed at her daughter and asked Qin Chu.
Qin Chu nodded, “To be honest with Madam, that is indeed the case.”
“Then you knew she was a member of the Azure Dragon Holy Land, why didn’t you say anything?” Hearing that Qin Chu liked her daughter, Zhen Han was happy, because with a foundation, future happiness would be more guaranteed.
“I thought about whether to have the Azure Dragon Holy Land change someone, but I didn’t dare to say it. I was afraid of being killed by the enraged Azure Dragon Holy Land people,” Qin Chu whispered.
Shangshu Tianye snorted, “Are you someone who is afraid of being killed? I guess you were really afraid of angering the Azure Dragon Holy Land and bringing trouble to your Vermilion Bird Holy Land.”
After a slight hesitation, Qin Chu nodded, “Yes, it’s true that I came to resolve the engagement this time. After the engagement is broken, I will tell Senior Sister that I like her.”
Shangshu Tianye turned his head to drink tea, ignoring Qin Chu. He found Qin Chu annoying, too irritating.
Shangshu Yu looked at Qin Chu with her beautiful eyes. She hadn’t expected Qin Chu to directly express his feelings. She had known before that Qin Chu cared about her, but she hadn’t expected him to be so direct.
Subsequently, the conversation was mostly about daily life. Shangshu Tianye did not object to the engagement, and Zhen Han even more so approved of Qin Chu.
On the Vermilion Bird Holy Land’s side, Qin Longxuan and Qin Lingxi had both met Shangshu Yu and approved of her. Qin Longhan, seeing that Qin Chu and Shangshu Yu had good feelings for each other, naturally would no longer bring up the matter of breaking off the engagement.
After drinking tea for a while, Zhen Han had Shangshu Yu take Qin Chu to stroll around the Azure Dragon Castle, mainly to give the two an opportunity to be alone.
After Shangshu Yu led Qin Chu away from the garden, Qin Chu patted his chest, “It’s a good thing your mother took care of me, otherwise, I don’t know how I would have gotten through this!”
“It was your kindness that moved her. That time she went to the Alchemist Guild to buy Medicinal Pills, and you took care of her, she already approved of you more. As for my father, he’s angry with you, but he doesn’t dislike you,” Shangshu Yu said.
Qin Chu turned to look at Shangshu Yu, “Senior Sister, our elders on both sides don’t object, so you are my fiancée, right?”
Shangshu Yu’s face flushed. What Qin Chu said was true; if the engagement continued, then she would be Qin Chu’s woman in the future.
“This is a new lease on life, my luck has arrived! Before, I really didn’t know how to solve this!” Qin Chu’s mood was truly excited at this moment.
“Qin Chu, say some more good words to my father later, and things will go smoothly. No matter how the major Holy Lands fight next, I will wait for you,” Shangshu Yu said, looking at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu took Shangshu Yu’s hand, “Senior Sister, I have responsibilities. The Family’s great revenge must be avenged, Father must be found, and Mother must also be rescued. But I will also not forget a man’s responsibility, I will not forget that there is a Senior Sister behind me who needs care. I will not ruin your life.”
Shangshu Yu nodded. She understood Qin Chu; there were some things Qin Chu couldn’t let go of.
In the garden, Shangshu Tianye looked at Qin Longhan, “The Martial Saint Order will end soon. Do you have any plans?”
“First, we’ll compete against them in Holy Martial City, then we’ll rebuild the Vermilion Bird Holy Land,” Qin Longhan said.
“The Black Tortoise Holy Land has malicious intentions, but our Azure Dragon Holy Land will deal with them. For the rest, if there’s anything you need help with, Clan Chief Qin, just say so,” Shangshu Tianye said. This was considered solving a major concern for the Vermilion Bird Holy Land.
Qin Longhan clasped his hands at Shangshu Tianye, “Thank you, Clan Chief Shangshu. The Vermilion Bird Holy Land will remember this friendship. As for the engagement between the two children, does Clan Chief Shangshu have any requirements? However, our Vermilion Bird Holy Land currently only has this one sole heir, so Clan Chief Shangshu should take it easy.”
“Haha! No requirements. If they have children, which Family the children’s hearts are tied to still depends on who they have a deeper affection for, doesn’t it? If you don’t take good care of them, then I apologize,” Shangshu Tianye said with a laugh.
Qin Longhan also laughed. What Shangshu Tianye said was the truth; formal requirements actually held little significance.
When the banquet was ready, the maidservants notified the group in the garden. Zhen Han arranged for someone to call Qin Chu and Shangshu Yu.
Everyone took their seats. Qin Lingxi called Shangshu Yu to sit between herself and Zhen Han. Qin Chu’s mother was not present, so she was acting as Qin Chu’s mother, naturally wanting Shangshu Yu and the Azure Dragon Holy Land to feel goodwill.
Shangshu Yu sat down. Shangshu Tianye looked at Qin Chu and pointed to the seat beside him.
Qin Chu felt a bit of a headache. Shangshu Tianye, whom he had once embarrassed, clearly did not intend to let him off the hook.
