Dai Zhirou's Fiancé
Taishi Ming caught up with Dai Zhirou, Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping, looking disgruntled as he said, "Hey, hey, hey! You can't just knock my head and then deny it! Didn't you just say we were going to have a big meal?"
"My head can't be knocked for nothing!"
Bai Jingjing said, "But you just called us your second wife, mistress, fourth wife, and fifth wife! What's wrong with us knocking our own little husband on the head?"
After saying that, she even winked at Taishi Ming.
Taishi Ming: ""
With my temper! If my body allowed it, I'd enforce the law on the spot. Believe it or not!
However, he turned to Snake Princess and said, "Wife, your besties are teasing your husband like this. Shouldn't you do something? Like beat her until her face blooms like peach blossoms, so she understands that not just anyone can flirt with your husband."
"Pfft."
Snake Princess could not help laughing. "It's fine. We besties are very friendly. Sharing one little husband isn't impossible."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing that, Bai Jingjing walked over and rubbed Taishi Ming's head. "Did you hear that? Even your wife said that you little husband are for all of us to share. From now on, when we knock your head, just endure it!"
Taishi Ming: ""
It feels like I'm being besieged by this bestie squad. What do I do?
One against five—I'm no match for them! The key is that even my own wife isn't helping me.
So depressing!
"Wife! Believe it or not, when I grow up, I'll really marry them all. Don't cry when the time comes."
Dai Zhirou truly did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Stop fooling around. Let's find somewhere to eat! After that fight, I'm really a little hungry."
Taishi Ming immediately stepped forward, nodding in agreement as he took her hand. "Little Rou Rou! You're still the best!"
Dai Zhirou rolled her eyes, shaking off this shameless fellow's hand as she said irritably, "Go hold your own wife's hand!"
"Xiao Rou is right. Go hold your own wife's hand, or don't blame me for crippling your hand!"
The sudden voice made everyone freeze.
Following the sound, they saw a man with cat ears and a cat tail slowly walking toward them.
The instant he appeared, Dai Zhirou's expression changed drastically. Snake Princess, Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping also looked extremely hostile.
Taishi Ming could not help frowning either. He had no favorable impression of someone who suddenly popped up like this.
However, this man seemed to know Dai Zhirou, so before he understood the situation, it was not appropriate for him to say anything.
Thus, he turned to Snake Princess and asked, "Wife, who is this?"
Snake Princess fell silent for a moment before saying, "Zhirou's fiancé, Zhu Pingshui!"
"What?!"
Taishi Ming was utterly dumbfounded. Was he being caught flirting with someone else's fiancée?
He subconsciously glanced at Dai Zhirou, but immediately noticed that something was off about her expression.
She did not look at all like a fiancée seeing her fiancé.
Instead, she looked like she was gritting her teeth in hatred!
Something's fishy here!
He looked at Zhu Pingshui again. His cat ears and cat tail were rather eye-searing, truly.
After all, cat-eared girls were acceptable, but cat-eared men? Better not.
Wait. Cat ears, cat tail, and the surname Zhu.
Dai Zhirou's surname is Dai.
And they're engaged!
I—
So Dai Ernai was actually from the Star Luo Empire's imperial family, while Zhu Pingshui was from the Zhu Family.
That was it, that was it!
The Dai and Zhu Families had intermarried for generations.
Since female cats could marry male tigers, male cats naturally had to marry tigresses.
Now Taishi Ming understood why Dai Zhirou wore such an expression upon seeing Zhu Pingshui.
Taishi Ming turned to Dai Zhirou and asked casually, "Do you want to marry him? If you don't, let's just kill him."
Dai Zhirou: ""
Bai Jingjing, Hanyu, and Lüping: ""
Snake Princess: ""
The Five Poisons were all utterly baffled.
Did he have to be so brutal? The other side only wanted to cripple one of his hands, yet he wanted to kill the other party outright.
Besides, he had been the one who held someone else's fiancée's hand. Wasn't he the one at fault?
Did he have to be so confrontational?
Zhu Pingshui was stunned as well, then he laughed. Three Soul Rings—two yellow and one purple—rose around him as he glared viciously at Taishi Ming.
He clearly intended to kill Taishi Ming on the spot.
However, while he had the intent, he lacked the strength.
Because the moment he revealed his Soul Rings, Snake Princess had already stepped in front of Taishi Ming and released hers as well.
Two yellow, two purple, and one black.
Complete suppression!
Zhu Pingshui took a deep breath and smiled. "I was only joking. How could I possibly argue with a six- or seven-year-old child?"
Zhu Pingshui's sudden change left Taishi Ming stunned.
Looks like this guy doesn't lack brains after all! But if Dai Ernai marries him, it'll really be a flower stuck in cow dung—no, he doesn't even qualify as cow dung. No, I absolutely can't let Dai Ernai end up with someone like him.
Thus, Taishi Ming stepped out from behind Snake Princess and smiled as well. "You were joking, but I wasn't! I really don't know where you got the nerve to chase us all the way here."
Zhu Pingshui said, "What do you mean?"
Taishi Ming looked at him with contempt. "What do I mean? Judging by your face, you should be several years older than Dai Er—cough, cough, Dai Zhirou! Yet even so, you're only a three-ringed Soul Elder, while Dai Zhirou, who is several years younger than you, is already a four-ringed Soul Ancestor."
"If I were you, I would've smashed myself to death against the southern wall long ago. How would I still have the face to come here?"
Zhu Pingshui's gaze instantly turned cold. "This wasn't something she or I could choose. Otherwise, no matter how talented she was, I would never have chosen her as my fiancée!"
"She is merely the daughter His Majesty had after getting drunk with some unknown woman, and her Martial Soul isn't even the Evil Eye White Tiger. She doesn't even qualify to form a Fused Martial Soul Skill with me. Do you know how much having a fiancée like this affects my fight for the position of family head?"
Taishi Ming was stunned. Now he finally understood why Dai Zhirou was a member of the Dai Family, yet her Martial Soul was not the Evil Eye White Tiger.
Her Martial Soul must have come from her mother.
But the Man Faced Demon Spider Martial Soul was not something just anyone could possess!
The unknown woman Zhu Pingshui spoke of was likely no ordinary person either!
At that moment, Dai Zhirou, who had been silent with a grim expression, flew into a rage. She could endure his mockery and ridicule toward her.
But she absolutely could not accept the disdain and contempt in Zhu Pingshui's tone when he spoke of her mother.
She shouted, "Get lost! I don't want to see you again. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhu Pingshui snorted. "Hmph, do you think I wanted to come? I came to inform you that in two months, the once-every-three-years grand competition between the Dai and Zhu Families will begin! If you don't return on time, bear the consequences yourself."
