Suppressing the Protagonist at the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 134: Black Silk, Forever Divine!

Wang Yannian handed the yellowed envelope to Xiao Chen: “Xiao Chen, many years ago, I saved the life of the Li family’s patriarch, Li Weifeng.”

“Later, Li Weifeng and I found we shared similar interests and became good friends. We agreed on an arranged child betrothal.”

“Originally, this betrothal should have been fulfilled by my son, but as you know, I, Wang Yannian, have been alone for many years with no children. So, this marriage obligation falls on your shoulders.”

Xiao Chen was immediately overwhelmed: “Master, you actually arranged a child betrothal for me? Are you serious?”

Wang Yannian chuckled: “Xiao Chen, don’t worry. As far as I know, the Li family is incredibly wealthy, one of the four major families in Donghai City. Being their son-in-law, you’ll live comfortably. Just don’t forget to honor your master.”

“Moreover, I heard that the Li family’s daughter is very beautiful, standing tall and graceful. Consider yourself lucky to get a ready-made wife.”

Xiao Chen waved his hand: “No way, I refuse. I’d rather die than go. Master, usually girls in such arranged marriages are unsightly. I won’t subject myself to that. If you want to get married, go ahead. I definitely won’t go, no matter what you say.”

Wang Yannian smiled and said: “Not going? That’s fine. I’ve lived on this mountain for ten years; another ten or twenty years won’t matter. Xiao Chen, if you don’t want to go, just stay on the mountain with me.”

“Master, you promised I could leave the mountain after three years. Why are you going back on your word now?”

“Xiao Chen, when have I ever gone back on my word? As I said, you can leave the mountain, but you must fulfill the agreement and marry the Li family’s daughter. If you don’t want to, you can stay on the mountain. You can leave when you can defeat me.”

Xiao Chen grimaced, knowing how formidable Wang Yannian was. Even in winter, wearing only a shirt, Wang Yannian never felt cold, making Xiao Chen suspect he was more than just a martial arts grandmaster, perhaps even a legendary immortal.

Having trained under Wang Yannian for so long, every time he made a breakthrough, he would be effortlessly defeated by Wang Yannian. So, agreeing to Wang Yannian’s terms seemed more realistic than staying on the mountain.

“Master, I accept your conditions. I will go down the mountain and get married.”

“Good, Xiao Chen. This is very important. I rarely make promises, but once I do, I keep them. If you deceive me and don’t follow through after descending the mountain, you know my temperament.” Wang Yannian said solemnly.

Xiao Chen shivered: “Master, what if the girl refuses to marry me?”

“That’s not our concern. If she refuses, we can’t force her.”

Having achieved the desired outcome, Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction. He planned to make the Li family’s daughter refuse the marriage.

Wang Yannian could see through Xiao Chen’s intentions but didn’t expose him. If Xiao Chen insisted on breaking off the engagement, Wang Yannian would agree. It all depended on fate.

“Remember the iron rule of our Ghost Gate after descending the mountain, you must not change it, understand?”

Xiao Chen nodded: “Save only one person per day, never the second.”

“Right, remember it well. This rule, passed down by our ancestors, must not be broken, or disaster might follow.”

“Master, it’s a different era now. Do you still believe in that?” Xiao Chen scoffed disdainfully. In his view, it was just a gimmick created by their ancestors, saving only one person per day, which seemed incredibly pretentious.

“Alright, since you’ve remembered, then scram. I don’t want to see your face anymore.”

Xiao Chen happily nodded and then, with a light tap of his foot, launched himself off the ground and disappeared from the doorway.

Once the sound of the wind from his departure faded, Wang Yannian finally opened his eyes: “The winds of change are stirring. Unpredictable, incomprehensible, incalculable! How strange.”

[Ding~! The protaganist Xiao Chen has descended the mountain. The ‘Divine Doctor Descends to the Flower City’ plot officially begins! Host, please prepare yourself mentally.].

In the midst of kissing Zhao Yanyan, Su Lin paused, then stopped.

Zhao Yanyan opened her eyes, looking at Su Lin in surprise: “What’s wrong?”

“Ahem… well, Yanyan, I’m sorry, my hand just acted on its own just now…”

Zhao Yanyan smiled at Su Lin and said, “How did it feel?”

“Well, just as good as I imagined. Yanyan, promise me, these legs will only be touched by me from now on.” Su Lin greedily requested.

“Heh~! What do you take me for? Since I chose you, of course, it will only be you…”

“Um, Yanyan, can I ask you a question?” Su Lin curiously looked at Zhao Yanyan.

“Ask away.”

“I’m really curious about what made you take the initiative to kiss me just now.”

“Who… who took the initiative to kiss? It was just an accident when I turned around.”

“Hehe, typical of a woman, saying the opposite of what she means.”

Zhao Yanyan glared at Su Lin discontentedly: “Hmph, it really was an accident.” Then she sighed: “Ah, my life is ruined in your hands, Su Lin. You must treat me well, you know?”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely treat you well.”

“I don’t ask for much, just treat me like you do Xiaowan.” Zhao Yanyan said dreamily, holding Su Lin’s arm.

“Like Xiaowan? Yanyan, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it, you know. Xiaowan had to rest for several days to recover.” Su Lin chuckled.

“Stop, I haven’t said I’ll give myself to you yet. We’re just dating, you know?” Zhao Yanyan emphasized.

“I know, I know, just dating.”

“Mmm…”

Reluctantly, Su Lin withdrew his arm and then glanced at Zhao Yanyan’s legs: “Yanyan, such beautiful legs, it’d be a pity not to wear black silk.”

“Black silk?” Zhao Yanyan looked puzzled at Su Lin.

Su Lin sighed, thinking how simple the men of this time were, not to appreciate such a wonderful thing as black silk.

“It’s black stockings,” Su Lin clarified.

“What’s wrong with black stockings?” Zhao Yanyan asked, puzzled.

Su Lin shook his head: “Of course, there’s nothing wrong. I mean, remember to buy a couple of pairs when you’re free.”

“To buy for what…hmm? Su Lin, you’re quite lecherous.” Zhao Yanyan spat at Su Lin. She had already figured out Su Lin’s vulgar taste.

“Cough cough, black silk is forever divine, don’t you know? No man dislikes it. Such great legs, you have to try it; otherwise, it’s such a waste.”

“I’m not going to buy that,” Zhao Yanyan turned her head away.

Seeing her reaction, Su Lin chuckled, started the car, and said, “Let’s go, back to the company.”
