When Shang Rui was exposed in front of her, her first thought was not to admit it, but to deny it on the spot with a blushing face.
Since their relationship has not been announced, she doesn't want to directly admit that she likes Xu Chen.
Wouldn't that mean she's the one pursuing him?
In fact, it was Xu Chen who pursued her back then.
She still remembers that day, the day when Xu Chen confessed his love to her.
"I say, Xiaorui, you have always been so stupid. What will you do if I am not around?"
"How could you not be here?"
"Everyone will get married and start a family. Won't we be separated by then?"
"..."
Shang Rui was silent. She seemed to have already imagined in her mind what Xu Chen would look like when he got married, started a family, and was with other women.
She never realized it.
Until Xu Chen reminded him.
It turns out that he will get married too.
He will marry other women in the future.
He will leave one day and live happily with other women.
Yes, he is so outstanding, he will definitely find a beautiful woman to be with, or a powerful practitioner to spend the rest of his life with.
What about yourself?
she does not know.
Shang Rui doesn't know what her future will be like.
For the first time, she lost her composure in front of Xu Chen and whispered, "I don't know."
"Don't you know? I have an idea."
"any solution?"
Shang Rui suddenly raised her head, and a different kind of brilliance bloomed in her beautiful eyes.
"It's simple, can't we just be together?"
Shang Rui was stunned when she heard this, and then asked, "Aren't we always together?"
"puff"
After hearing this, Xu Chen laughed.
Shang Rui blushed again and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm not talking about being together, I'm saying how about we become a couple?"
Xu Chen looked at Shang Rui, whose face was flushed red, and said lightly, "This way I can take care of you for the rest of your life."
After hearing this, Shang Rui finally understood what Xu Chen meant, and her jade-like face turned even redder.
She felt her face getting hot, and her whole body became hotter. She murmured, "You talk as if I were a patient..."
Xu Chen asked: "So do you agree?"
"agree……"
"The sound is so soft, I can't hear it clearly."
"I agree! I agree! Do you understand?"
Shang Rui was angry and annoyed, and shouted at Xu Chen.
"Don't be angry. This matter concerns your lifelong happiness. Think about it carefully."
"No, don't think about it. I...I want to be with you too."
Shang Rui stuttered as she spoke. She was extremely embarrassed. It was all because of Xu Chen's repeated questioning.
"Then please give me more advice."
Xu Chen extended his hand towards Shang Rui and said with a smile.
"Well, please give me some advice."
Shang Rui held Xu Chen's hand tightly, her heart pounding.
Three hundred years have passed, and Shang Rui still can't forget that day.
"No, just keep talking, why stop?"
Just as she was lost in her memories, the familiar words interrupted her memory.
Xu Chen waved his hand in front of her and sighed, "Can you fall asleep while running? You are worthy of it."
"Asshole! I was just thinking!"
Shang Rui was very embarrassed and annoyed. Whenever her attitude towards him changed a lot, he would speak.
It’s really infuriating.
The sword maniac looked at the two of them quietly, not knowing what he was thinking...
……
Dasheng, Dongyan City.
Late at night, the three finally arrived at Dasheng.
Shang Rui was still carrying the sword-carrying maniac very fast, and Xu Chen almost couldn't keep up.
This was the result of Shang Rui deliberately slowing down.
He didn't know since when, but this silly girl had become someone he could never catch up with.
After Xu Chen saw the huge plaque inlaid with "Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce", he said to Shang Rui, "Go in."
Finally, this day has come.
404. Tonight, the moonlight is beautiful
Dongyan City, Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce.
Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce has always been one of the top chambers of commerce in Dasheng, and its upward trend is astonishing enough.
It is even more terrifying in a remote town like Dongyan City. It covers a huge area, like an imperial palace located in Dongyan City.
The branches of the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce are the objects of flattery by countless people.
Xu Chen had no obstacles in entering the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce. After he handed over Yin Qimeng's token, he had a smooth journey.
No one around dared to be negligent and carefully brought Xu Chen to the highest level.
They all knew that Yin Qimeng had ordered that the entire Dasheng Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce must be extremely respectful to the owner of this token.
Although they didn't know who Xu Chen was, they knew that Xu Chen must be a very important person to the president.
"Are you so familiar with the Dust Dream Chamber of Commerce?"
Jian Chi speculated about Xu Chen's identity, but she actually didn't know that much about Dasheng.
Because she is from Longyun.
The place where she and Xu Chen used to live was also Longyun. Only in the three hundred years when Xu Chen disappeared did she come to Dasheng to look for Xu Chen.
Apart from that, she knew nothing about Dasheng.
She didn't have as much information as Yin Qimeng, and didn't understand who Xu Chen's Taoist companions were. She didn't even know that Yin Qimeng was one of Xu Chen's many Taoist companions.
"I also have the potential to be a businessman. Can you see that?"
Xu Chen didn't know what the sword maniac had learned, and said it half-jokingly.
He didn't know whether Jian Chi knew Yin Qimeng or not, so he could only pretend to be stupid.
“There is no businessman who doesn’t seek rewards.”
Sword Maniac didn't seem to agree with Xu Chen's statement. She thought someone like Xu Chen couldn't be a businessman and said, "Businessmen seek profit, not an illusory future."
What she said was naturally referring to Xu Chen's previous behavior, and she was waiting for Xu Chen to refute her.
Hearing this, Xu Chen smiled and said, "A true businessman needs to invest in the future."
"Don't you agree, President Yin?"
He looked at Yin Qimeng who was walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"exactly."
Yin Qimeng smiled and said, "It seems I shouldn't have let you fool around out there. It would have been better if you had come to my side earlier to help run the Chamber of Commerce. Is this Miss Shang? She's truly a natural beauty. As a woman myself, I feel a little ashamed of myself."
Shang Rui felt a little embarrassed when Yin Qimeng praised her so much, and said with a blushing face: "No, not really, my sister is also... pretty."
She tried to compliment Yin Qimeng for a long time, but her knowledge was obviously not enough, and after trying for a long time, she could only say the word "beautiful".
"Thank you."
Yin Qimeng didn't laugh at Shang Rui. Instead, she accepted it with a smile. Then she looked at Jian Chi and asked, "Where is this sister from? Why is she so beautiful?"
"..."
The sword maniac was not good at speaking, and he was a little overwhelmed by the sudden warm hospitality.
Xu Chen took over the conversation and said, "She is Ran Yiliu. She has just been injured. Can you find a place to treat her and send a few great cultivators to protect her?"
This is also the purpose of his trip.
The sword maniac is not in a very good condition now, so Yin Qimeng has to send someone to protect him.
"I understand, but as for bodyguards, it would be better for them to arrange them. I'm just a businessman, and I can only arrange some saint-level practitioners. I'm afraid they are not enough to protect my sister."
The "over there" that Yin Qimeng mentioned was naturally the empress. Although she was rich, it was difficult for her to use money to invite an emperor-level powerhouse to come over, unless the emperor-level powerhouse was very short of money.
The empress is different.
In the Dasheng territory, apart from those from the three worlds, the empress can easily send emperor-level strongmen to protect the sword maniac.
She did not directly say the word "Empress", after all, these two words carry too much weight.
"Too."
Xu Chen agreed. He also knew that there were not many people who could be Sword Maniac's bodyguard.
At least he has to be an emperor-level expert, otherwise he will not be able to provide any protection.
"Do you need me?"
Yun Panxia suddenly appeared nearby, seemingly coming out of nowhere, and volunteered.
Xu Chen noticed Yun Panxia early in the morning.
Yun Panxia first lay on the blanket on the ground, but after seeing him, she stood up and quickly came over here.
However, the speed is indeed fast enough.
Xu Chen estimated that his current strength was probably still no match for Yun Panxia, but things would be different after he got the Baihuan Fruit from the Baihuan Sect.
"I had forgotten all about it. Isn't this just right?"
Yin Qimeng wanted to applaud. She was worried that she would not have the chance to get Yun Panxia away. At least she wanted to be alone with Xu Chen for a while.
It was difficult for her to do so with Yun Panxia around.
"That's fine, let's leave it like this for now."
Xu Chen understood that the initial period was the most difficult, and Yun Panxia's combat power was enough.
He looked at Yun Panxia and said, "I'm counting on you."
"rest assured."
Yun Panxia nodded, her voice and expression as calm as ever, as if she was doing something insignificant.
"Then sister, please take this girl to see Dr. Liu."
Yin Qimeng felt relieved. It seemed that she could finally be alone with Xu Chen. However, her heart was beating fast and she could hardly remain calm.
