Douluo: The Son of Martial Soul, Deceiving All the Women

Chapter 201 What a complete mess!

Shuiyue'er's face was conflicted. She wanted to give up on this amorous scoundrel, but she was also a little reluctant to part with Baiyu's good looks.

He then looked up and carefully examined Bai Yu's perfectly sculpted profile, and gritted his teeth, saying:
"Then... then how about you add me too? You already have so many girlfriends, one more or one less won't make a difference... um!"

Shui Bing'er tightly covered Shui Yue'er's mouth, wishing she could knock her unconscious so she wouldn't embarrass herself in front of everyone.

What Bai Yu said earlier sent chills down her spine. She never expected her sister to be even more cunning, still trying to get involved even after all this.

"I'm sorry, Baiyu, my sister seems to have injured her brain during a competition. Please don't take what she said to heart."

Bai Yu's lips twitched slightly. Was Shui Bing'er cursing him, or was she cursing her sister? Something felt off.

"It's nothing, your sister just acted impulsively, don't take it seriously."

Throughout the rest of the journey, apart from Shuiyue'er whose mouth was gagged, the other seven fell silent. The women from Tianshui who walked behind kept exchanging glances and exchanging secret messages.

"Young Master Bai, this is our first meeting. I am Shui Ling Shuang, Bing'er's mother. I am unprepared and can only offer you a small meal. Please forgive me."

As soon as the group arrived at the entrance of the Tiandou Hotel, they saw a beautiful blue-haired woman wearing a sky-blue dress waiting outside.

Judging from her appearance, this beautiful woman was probably in her early thirties, and her face bore a six-tenths resemblance to Shui Bing'er.

Shui Ling Shuang, from a distance, spotted Shui Bing'er and her group. She carefully observed Bai Yu walking ahead and thought to herself:

"He does look young. If he's not lying, he should indeed be eighteen or nineteen years old."

Baiyu waved his hand, a stiff smile appearing on his lips.

"No need to be so polite. As a junior, I am truly ashamed to have troubled Dean Shui to wait here."

Shui Ling Shuang raised an eyebrow as she looked at Bai Yu, who seemed a little uncomfortable, and Shui Yue'er, whose mouth was covered.

What's going on? They sent them to ask for help, and it still caused problems? That girl Bing'er can't even handle this little thing, she's a complete failure!

"Hehe, of course. Please come in, Young Master Bai. In principle, since Young Master Bai saved Bing'er and the others, my Shui family should prepare generous gifts to express our gratitude."

"We were unprepared today, so this is all we can do. When we have more time in the future, the Shui family will certainly pay a visit."

Bai Yu followed Shui Ling Shuang into the hotel, thinking helplessly as they walked, "These social obligations are really annoying."

I thought that since my cheap teacher gave up on building the country, he wouldn't have to win over any more forces and wouldn't have to go through all this again. But I never expected that he still couldn't escape it!

"Dean Shui, you're too kind. I've already told your daughter that it was just a coincidence, and it's ultimately my fault, so there's no need for such formalities."

"This banquet is enough. If we make a big fuss about it, it will seem as if I, Baiyu, am taking advantage of your kindness."

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Shui Ling Shuang's eyes flashed with surprise and doubt. Previously, she thought that Bai Yu was very likely the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, but now, she was a little uncertain.

In her mind, the Spirit Hall has been making constant moves over the years, clearly looking like it's up to something. With such a good opportunity to win over her Shui family, how could Bai Yu, if he were the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, not be tempted?

After all, the Shui family occupied a city and had a considerable reputation and influence in the far north.

"Hehe, Young Master Bai is truly magnanimous. No wonder you have such strength at such a young age. I wonder which organization could cultivate such a young talent as you."

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and glanced at Shui Ling Shuang with a smile in his eyes. He knew that Shui Ling Shuang wanted to find out about his background. However, he didn't care. Apart from when he was still weak and deliberately concealed his strength, he had long since stopped caring about it.

Moreover, the final of the Soul Master Competition will be the time for him to step onto the stage and announce his identity to the mainland.

Therefore, Baiyu gave a very honest answer to Shui Lingshuang's probing.

"The Spirit Hall, I am the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall in this generation."

Shui Ling Shuang's eyes widened slightly. Although she had expected it, she was still somewhat surprised when Bai Yu actually revealed his identity.

At the same time, her doubts deepened. If this guy really was the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, why didn't he take the opportunity to win over the Shui family?

Could it be that the Spirit Hall is so arrogant and looks down on the Shui family? But that doesn't make sense either. Bai Yu's manners and interactions with others are clearly very methodical; he doesn't seem like someone who considers himself superior.
Shui Ling Shuang was confused and couldn't quite understand what was going on.

Shui Bing'er and the others following behind the two also looked at Bai Yu in surprise, thinking that the Dean was right after all, he really was the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.

Afterwards, the group arrived at the room that Shui Ling Shuang had booked, and ordered the waiters to serve various dishes. They toasted and drank, creating a lively atmosphere.

During the meal, Shui Yue'er kept trying to find an opportunity to get closer to Bai Yu, but Shui Bing'er kept a close eye on her and kept her firmly under control.

"Dean Shui, thank you for your hospitality. I have eaten and drunk my fill, so it's time for me to take my leave. Let's meet again sometime in the future."

"Young Master Bai, please take care. The conditions today are simple and we apologize for any inconvenience. When you have free time in the future, please come to the Shui family. We will certainly welcome you with open arms."

After finishing the somewhat awkward meal, Baiyu immediately stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and prepared to take his leave.

Shui Ling Shuang could tell that Bai Yu didn't want to talk much, so she went along with it, said a few polite words, and did him a favor.

"Mom, what are you thinking? Is something wrong?"

Seeing Shui Ling Shuang's slightly furrowed brows as she stared in the direction the white fish had left, Shui Bing'er asked with some confusion.

Shui Ling Shuang turned to look at her daughter, who had been intelligent since childhood, and shook her head, saying:

“There’s nothing wrong with that. I’m just a little puzzled. Everyone on the continent knows that the Spirit Hall wants to cause trouble. Logically speaking, as the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, Bai Yu should be helping the Spirit Hall to build up its influence.”

"But as you saw today, he had such a good opportunity to win over the Shui family, but he remained unmoved and even wished he had never done them a favor."

"Tell me, is this situation correct?"

Shui Bing'er blinked. So this was what her mother had been thinking about all along?

"Mom, why are you thinking so much? Isn't it better if he doesn't try to win us over? After all, whether the Spirit Hall causes trouble or not, our Shui family can't afford to get involved."

"And now, no matter what, we have established a personal relationship with the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall."

"No matter what happens in the future, my Shui family will always have a way out."

After Shui Bing'er finished speaking, Shui Ling Shuang immediately looked relieved and gave Shui Bing'er an approving look, thinking to herself that this daughter was not born in vain and would be able to become the pillar of the Shui family in the future.

"You're right, I misunderstood. But what was the situation between you two before? Why do I always feel that the way you look at Baiyu is a little off?"
