1246: Chapter 1246: Bad Idea (6) 1246: Chapter 1246: Bad Idea (6) âI feel like those guys seeking to marry Miss Wanren might not really be into her,â Yang Ruxin sighed after freshening up in the room, âI think theyâre more interested in the weapons from the Wanren Villaâs arsenal.â
âDefinitely,â Gu Qingheng nodded, âArenât we here for the weapons too?â
âSo, do you think we should try to snatch an Embroidered Ball or something?â Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly.
âNonsense, Iâm a married man, what would I do with an Embroidered Ball?â Gu Qingheng couldnât help but knock on Yang Ruxinâs head, âDonât come up with such lousy ideas.â
âIn the end, doesnât Miss Wanren still have to choose?
If she doesnât pick, that would be fine, right?â
âBut what if she does pick me?â
Yang Ruxin stopped talking, glancing at Gu Qinghengâs face, she didnât really dare to take the risk, but suddenly her eyes lit up, âWe might not be suitable but what about Shadow Three and Shadow Seven?
Both bachelors, no problem for them to participate, right?â
âThatâs true,â Gu Qingheng nodded and immediately called the two men in to explain the idea.
âWeâŠâ The pair were somewhat confused.
They were servants, Hidden Guards who were meant to stay out of sight; and now they were being asked to snatch an Embroidered Ball?
âYou are no longer Hidden Guards who canât step into the light.
You are our brothers,â Yang Ruxin waved her hand, âAnd you wonât have to hide in trees or on rooftops every nightâitâs bad for your health.
I know you were trained from a young age and many of you donât even know your own last names.
So from now on, reclaim your names.
If you donât know, just choose either Gu or Yang, whatever pleases you.
And if you fancy a girl, you are free to marry and have childrenâŠâ
Shadow Three and Shadow Seven felt it hard to believe and collectively turned to look at Gu Qingheng.
âDo as Xinxin says,â Gu Qingheng nodded, âHer words are as good as mine, at any time.â
Shadow Three and Shadow Seven didnât know quite how to feel but found themselves swelling with emotion until their eyes grew a bit misty.
âAlright, letâs dispense with the sentimental talk and sentimental stuff,â Yang Ruxin hurriedly waved her hand, âWe are here today for the Blood-drinking Sword.
Since you two are the only unmarried men, you must snatch the Embroidered Ball and do your best in the challengesâŠâ She chuckled with a âHeiheiâ, âAnd if you manage to catch the fancy of Jiangnanâs number one beauty, that would be striking it richâŠâ
Shadow Seven couldnât help but touch his own face.
His martial arts skills were fearless, but his looksâŠ
sigh, all he could claim was being passableânot to mention half a front tooth missing.
So even if he made it through, he wasnât necessarily going to be the chosen one, which meant he could then choose a weaponâŠ
With that thought, he looked at Shadow Three, âLetâs strive to get through the challenge, and then you be the groom and Iâll take the treasure swordâŠâ
âWhy should it be me whoâs the groom?â Shadow Three objected upon hearing this, âWhy canât it be you whoâs the groom and I who takes the treasure sword?â He didnât care for Miss Wanren at all.
He wanted to stay by his masterâs side.
BesidesâŠ
his gaze involuntarily drifted toward Du Man, since he already had someone in his heart.
âYou look better than I do,â said Shadow Seven righteously, âGirls like handsome guys, and Iâm well aware of how I lookâŠâ
âMaybe Miss Wanren would like someone just like you,â Shadow Three shrugged.
âIs she blind?â Shadow Seven frowned.
Du Man couldnât help but snort with laughter, âYou two, isnât it too early to be discussing this?
First get a hold of the Embroidered Ball, then weâll talkâŠâ
