Chapter 5 You Don't Understand Him at All

Chen Lan selectively ignored the system's voice, and experienced the joy of holding a girl before separating from Xie Qingqing.

"Qingqing, it's getting late, I'll take you home, otherwise your brother will be worried if he doesn't see you after training."

After Chen Lan's reminder, Xie Qingqing remembered that she seemed to have a brother.

Although she has found her ideal husband now, she can't leave without saying hello.

On the way back, Chen Lan seemed to suddenly remember something and said to Xie Qingqing seriously.

"Qingqing, I will come again tomorrow. But I have some things to deal with first. When everything is settled tomorrow, I will take you and your brother to my house."

"When you have enough fun in Kyoto, I will go back to your house with you, how about it?"

Xie Qingqing nodded happily when she heard it. She didn't ask Chen Lan why he went to her house. In this process, what else can he do besides discussing marriage.

As for who Chen Lan is, it doesn't matter now. Anyway, he said he would take her home tomorrow, and she would know when the time comes.

Instead, she heard that Chen Lan had something to deal with in the inn, which caught her attention.

"Brother Chen, are you here for something else today?"

Chen Lan's face became serious when he heard this, and then he nodded slowly.

"Yes, it's the family matter that I told you about during the day that upset me."

When Xie Qingqing heard this, she immediately remembered the thing that Chen Lan didn't want to mention during the day.

"Brother Chen, can you tell me about it? I want to share it with you, maybe I can help you."

Chen Lan almost used all his strength to suppress the corners of his mouth that were rising wildly, showing a tangled expression, and then slowly became calm.

"Okay, we will be a family from now on, and my family affairs are your family affairs."

Hearing Chen Lan's words, Xie Qingqing's face flushed slightly, but she didn't refute it. Instead, she was very happy in her heart, because Chen Lan treated her as a family member.

"This is about our sister. More than ten years ago, there was a small family that had a boy with good talent."

"The boy's grandfather and my grandfather are old acquaintances, so he wanted to use this relationship to arrange a marriage between his grandson and our sister."

"At that time, my grandfather thought that the boy had good talent, so he agreed to temporarily arrange it, but whether it can be done depends on the fate of the two."

At this point, Chen Lan suddenly stopped and looked at Xie Qingqing who was listening carefully.

Xie Qingqing didn't hear anything wrong with this story at all, but was lost in the words "our sister".

And in her heart, she always felt that her family belonged to a large family, and had nothing to do with the small family mentioned by Chen Lan.

"Qingqing, what do you think is the most important thing in a marriage?"

Xie Qingqing saw Chen Lan suddenly asking questions while telling a story, and immediately thought about it.

"Equal status?"

She thought that Chen Lan emphasized that the other party was a small family, and he thought that this family was not worthy of his family.

Chen Lan shook his head and then said righteously.

"Family is nothing. Even if you are alone, you have the right to pursue happiness."

"I think the most important thing about a marriage is that you and I love each other."

Xie Qingqing nodded, thinking that Chen Lan was right.

"My sister also thinks so. It is ridiculous to marry someone whose background she has never met."

"So she decided to cancel the engagement. She asked the elders of the family to accompany her and prepared a lot of resources to compensate the small family."

"Who knew that the ungrateful boy actually said that my sister was insulting him and wanted to fight with my sister to decide whether to agree to cancel the engagement."

"Is it ridiculous? If you really feel insulted, why is the result of the fight whether the engagement will continue?"

After Chen Lan finished speaking, he turned his eyes to Xie Qingqing again, as if he wanted to ask her opinion.

Xie Qingqing had always looked at this issue from Xie Yu's perspective, and she didn't find the details of the outcome of the fight.

So after listening to Chen Lan's story, although she always felt strange, she didn't think about herself.

This time, she stood in Chen Yuxi's perspective and found that the boy Chen Lan mentioned was disgusting.

The perspective changed, and she looked at the problem clearly.

"This guy is too shameless. This gambling war is simply not to cancel the engagement with your family in order to seek greater benefits."

In Xie Qingqing's view, Chen Lan is powerful and generous, and his family must be a great family.

At least it will not be worse than their Xie family, so it is entirely possible that a small family wants to build a relationship with them.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Chen Lan found that Xie Qingqing was so smart, and he stopped beating around the bush.

"I'm going to cripple that bastard boy. He is several years older than my sister, and he actually has the nerve to challenge her. How can my sister let him bully me? If I'm forced into a corner, I'll even destroy his family together."

Xie Qingqing nodded when she heard this, and didn't say much. This world is so cruel. It is common for a small family to be destroyed if it offends the majesty of the strong.

As far as she knew, even the Xie family had wiped out several small families that were not very smart.

"That guy also lives in this inn?"

"Yes, I came here today to find him, but I didn't expect to meet you first."

As they talked, they walked towards the inn. As they talked, they had already arrived at the door of the inn.

Seeing Xie Qingqing's reaction, Chen Lan remained calm and his expression gradually became gentle.

"Okay, I won't go in. You have a good rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Xie Qingqing nodded gently, and then walked into the inn reluctantly.

Seeing Xie Qingqing walk into the inn, Chen Lan took two steps and raised his hand, and then saw Hong Zhuo walking out of the darkness.

"Your Highness."

Chen Lan nodded gently.

"Yeah, I can't wait until tomorrow."

...

On the other side, Xie Qingqing walked into the inn and found that Xie Yu was waiting for her downstairs.

"Brother Yu, why did you come out? Is the training over?"

Xie Qingqing was a little surprised, because she was thinking about how to tell Xie Yu about Chen Lan, but when she looked up, she suddenly saw Xie Yu seemed to be waiting for her.

"No, but I have already stepped into the late stage of Kaiyang Realm. Unfortunately, I don't have enough spiritual energy. I want to ask if you have any spiritual stones?"

The reason why Xie Yu was able to practice so fast was all thanks to the god-level technique he accidentally obtained.

This technique is called "Spirit Devouring Technique". The magic is that as long as you continue to devour spiritual energy, you will basically have no bottleneck in practice, and the best choice for devouring spiritual energy is naturally spiritual stones.

But as his cultivation level gets higher and higher, the spiritual stones he needs are also increasing.

For this battle with Chen Yuxi, Xie Yu not only used up all the spiritual stones on his body, but also borrowed spiritual stones everywhere.

But he didn't think there was anything, because in his eyes, as long as he defeated Chen Yuxi this time, he would have confirmed his identity as the son-in-law of Chen Fengxian Dynasty. Would he still be afraid that there would not be enough spiritual stones?

If it was before, Xie Yu asked for spiritual stones so directly, Xie Qingqing might not have any dissatisfaction.

But today, when she met Chen Lan, she suddenly felt that her brother was really inferior to him in every way.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frowned, but still told the truth.

"I don't have any spirit stones either. I've given you all my spirit stones."

Xie Yu frowned when he heard this, not because Xie Qingqing said she didn't have any spirit stones, but because he didn't believe Xie Qingqing at all.

If there were no spirit stones at all, how could he walk around in Kyoto so late?

And just now he keenly caught that when he asked Xie Qingqing if she had any spirit stones, Xie Qingqing frowned, which showed that she didn't want to give him spirit stones.

"Really? Qingqing, don't lie to me, I'm really close to breaking through. When I win the decisive battle against the Sixth Princess, I will be the son-in-law of the Chenfeng Immortal Dynasty. At that time, I will double it back to you."

When Xie Qingqing heard this, she wanted to slap herself twice.

Is what he said a human word? Not only did he doubt himself, but he also wanted to be the son-in-law. I really don't know why I followed him to Kyoto in the first place.

"It's really gone."

As if she was afraid that Xie Yu wouldn't believe it, Xie Qingqing even handed over her space ring, indicating that Xie Yu could check it.

This was actually just a gesture. No one would really check this obvious act of distrust.

But who knew that Xie Yu, who was sure that Xie Qingqing was lying to him, actually took the space ring and checked the things inside.

You don't know until you check it, and you'll be shocked when you check it.

Afterwards, regardless of Xie Qingqing's ugly face, he directly questioned.

"You bought so many things? How many spirit stones did it cost? Didn't you say in the morning that you would give me all the spirit stones?"

Xie Qingqing had already begun to get impatient. After all, Xie Yu was just a cousin of hers. The two had played together since childhood, and she had always admired Xie Yu.

But until today, she realized that Xie Yu was such an annoying guy.

"I didn't buy this, Brother Chen bought it for me."

Xie Yu was stunned when he heard this.

"Brother Chen? What Brother Chen?"

"How do you know someone in Kyoto?"

Xie Qingqing's impatient mood was still accumulating, but considering the friendship for so many years, she still patiently explained.

"I met him today. He is a very nice person, strong, handsome, and accompanied me for a whole day."

This time it was Xie Yu's turn to be confused.

You know, Xie Yu is a bad guy. Seeing Xie Qingqing, who has been a beauty since childhood, he doesn't want to treat her as a sister.

Who knows, this time he originally planned to bring her to Kyoto to see the world, so as to improve his favorability, and then completely establish the relationship.

Who would have thought that in just one day, his girlfriend seemed to be poached.

"I bought you so many things just after we met, Qingqing, you have to be careful, Kyoto is a mixed bag, there are many bad people, don't be fooled by the surface."

Hearing that Xie Yu started to slander Chen Lan after he couldn't get the spirit stone, Xie Qingqing's face finally became completely ugly.

"You don't know him at all. I don't want to talk to you."

Don't know him? Now what Xie Yu wants to do most is to end him.

Seeing that Xie Qingqing was really angry, Xie Yu became even angrier.

Because Xie Qingqing was actually angry with him for a man she just met, this was completely different from the obedient little cousin he had been before.

The more Xie Yu thought about it, the angrier he became. Then he stopped paying attention to Xie Qingqing and went back to his room with a stern face.

Seeing that Xie Yu was still angry, Xie Qingqing almost laughed out of anger, and simply went back to her room. Anyway, Brother Chen would come to pick her up tomorrow.

At the same time, in the main hall of the East Palace, Chen Lan, who had just returned to his residence, suddenly heard the voice of the system in his mind.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for hooking up with the childhood sweetheart of the Son of Destiny, confusing his mind, and successfully interrupting the Son of Destiny's breakthrough on the battlefield. ]
