âYou!!â
Lou Qianxue and An Shaoning widened their eyes in shock as they stared at the tall and handsome young man in front of them.
They could barely believe that this man was the Second Young Master, who just seconds ago still had disheveled hair and a messy mustache.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
â!!!â Everyone gasped in shock as well as they looked at the young man. Their jaws were agape in astonishment.
âHeâs the Second Young Master?â
âThe Second Young Master whoâs ugly and violent like a barbarian? The man who beats someone up whenever he loses his temper?â
âHeâs actually so handsome?â
âUm, Miss Lou,â the Second Young Master awkwardly bowed toward her. âIâll be your bodyguard from now on.â
However...
The scene that kept surfacing in his mind was...
âYou rascal! Look at how old your brotherâs son is. Yet, you canât even find yourself a wife! I like that young lady from just now. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Go and court that young lady, okay?
âIf you fail, donât ever think about returning to the mansion. Also, shave your mustache! With such an ugly mustache, you wonât ever find a wife!â
â...â Lou Qianxue was jolted back to reality. She recovered from her state of shock. âSecond Young Master, you donât need to do this. Iâve already taken the Thousand thread vine.â
When Chu Pengfei heard her melodious voice, he also regained his senses.
His gaze fell onto Lou Qianxueâs beautiful face and bright eyes, which made his ears blush even further.
Then, the Second Young Master violently shook his head. âI donât care. Anyway, you saved my father, so I will protect you.â
âWait a moment! What did he say?â Everyone had just recovered from their initial shock of the change in Chu Pengfeiâs appearance. Yet, they were now confronted with even more astonishing news!
âShe cured the Second Young Masterâs father?â
âSo she cured Master Guogong?â
âThis young lady actually managed to cure him?â
âHow is this possible?â
âIs this fake news? The four fourth-grade alchemists in Tian Zhao, including Master Yan, couldnât cure him. Even Master Gongsun failed! How is it possible for a young lady...â
Everyone gazed at Lou Qianxue in utter disbelief...
However, Lou Qianxue helplessly looked at Zhu Feipeng. âIt was actually An Shaoningâs idea to come to Zheng Guan Gongâs mansion. Since youâre so insistent on repaying the favor, just follow An Shaoning and protect him.â
â...â
â...â Shaoning and the Second Young Master exchanged glances with each other.
âBut...â My father sent me here to find myself a wife!
Shaoning sighed. âIt might affect Qianxueâs reputation as a lady if you keep sticking to her. Thereâs a lot of time for you to repay her favor in the future.â
â...â Thatâs what I was planning to do! Frowning, Zhu Feipeng contemplated for a while. In the end, he gloomily said, âOkay, then. Letâs talk about this later. Iâll send both of you back first.â
The three of them walked down the front steps of the mansion together.
The crowd at the entrance parted into two rows, creating a path for them.
After they left...
âMiss Lou? Qianxue? Her name is Lou Qianxue?â
âIâve never heard of such an impressive alchemist like her. Is she new to the Imperial city?â
âHer abilities... Iâm afraid that none of the alchemists in Tian Zhao can compare to her.â
âNo! No, thereâs still one person. Have you forgotten about Jade-Masked Blastâ, who just arrived at the Imperial city? She defeated a fourth-grade alchemist at Lingxi Prefecture. Sheâs really powerful.â
âHow can this girl even be compared to Jade-Masked Blast? The latter belongs to the Extraterritorial!â
âBut... Lou Qianxue... Such a powerful alchemist like her will definitely become famous throughout Tian Zhao!â
