Chapter 319 - Bribing The Family; Grilled By The Parents (4)
This was her second chance to life, naturally she understood this kind of emotions. If she said neither one of them had any feelings, that would be a lie, but….
Were they really right each other?
Cheng Xiao Xiao fell into deep thought under the crystal fruit tree and little Yuteng did not disturb her.
Outside, Mo Xuanzun invaded Cheng Xiao Xiao’s room in her quarter. He sat down crossed leg to wait for Cheng Xiao Xiao’s reappearance.
As for the housemaster Cheng Biyuan, he didn’t have time to think about his daughter right now, or where did Mo Xuanzun go. He was busy hosting those from all the different powers who were still lingering around.
The words of what had taken place at the auction spread quickly throughout the Cheng’s. Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Zheng Yuan were very surprised!
Mrs. Cheng didn’t feel appropriate to ask for Mo Xuanzun right away but Cheng Zheng Yuan immediately sprang to action!
He went over to his sister’s quarters and a shadow appeared seemingly out of nowhere. When he saw the exceptionally good-looking young man, he immediately recalled his name – Mo Xuanzun!
“And you are…” asked Mo Xuanzun as he looked the little boy in front of him up and down.
For some reason, Cheng Zheng Yuan had an instant fondness toward the man in front of him. He wasn’t sure it was the fact that he had saved his sister in the part or that he had just stepped in to help them out not too long ago that brought about the fondness, but if he was to become his brother-in-law, he’d be okay with that!
“Are you to Mo Xuanzun who are fond of my sister?”
“Refer to me as your brother-in-law,” said Mo Xuanzun as he casually patted him on his shoulder!
“Ugh…”
Cheng Zheng Yuan wasn’t sure what to make of that. No wonder he heard that he immediately addressed his father as his father-in-law right away. He looked as though to challenge him, “Well, I don’t object to you being my brother-in-law, but you better get together with my sister first and that is not going to be an easy task!”
“Hmmm, you are right, little boy. So you must assist your brother-in-law going forward!” demanded Mo Xuanzun very matter-of-factly!
“What?!” Cheng Zheng Yuan paused for a second before he shook his head and said, “No way! I am not going to help you go after my sister!”
“A set of choreography for sword!” Mo Xuanzun didn’t care what he has to say and just tossed out his offer casually.
“Oh!!” Cheng Zheng Yuan let out a cry, he thought he had misheard!
“HE HE, do you mean that?” Cheng Zheng Yuan’s eyes were beaming. It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t tempted. He continued to ask, “How do you want me to help you?”
“I will let you know when the time comes!” said Mo Xuanzun cryptically.
“Okay! As long as you can get with my sister, I will sign off on you being my brother-in-law!” said Cheng Zheng Yuan with the brightest smile.
All he need was a set of sword choreography to turn the boy to his side. Mo Xuanzun added, “Little boy, remember to refer to me as brother-in-law!”
“I can do that, but I worry that big sister will….”
“You let me worry about that. At most she’d kick me a few more times. Nothing of the matter!” waved Mo Xuanzun without too much concern.
When the two were busy bonding, another set of footsteps approached them in the yard. It was Cheng Zheng Bin followed by Cheng Chi and little Lan Lan followed by Lu Zhu.
When Cheng Chi and Lu Zhu met Mo Xuanzun for the first them, they also had immediate fondness toward him. Without thinking, they both bowed and greeted them, “Greetings, guye. Greetings, young master!”
Ugh…
Never mind that Cheng Zheng Yuan was a bit surprised, even Mo Xuanzun was surprised. He had barely just met the two of them, not even the master of the Cheng’s household had approved of the relationship yet; how were these two definitely knew what’s best for them!
Never mind that Mo Xuanzun had no idea why that was, perhaps even Cheng Xiao Xiao would be surprised by that if she was present.
