Yu Xiaofeng had once longed many times to know what his girlfriend would be like, where his wedding should be held, and the whole process of welcoming the bride on the wedding day. These were all things he had desperately wished for in his previous life.

(How hard was it to find a girlfriend these days? It would be great if the Civil Affairs Bureau assigned everyone a boyfriend or girlfriend.)

But now, the woman before him—his so-called godmother, Bibi Dong—was actually telling him that she wanted to marry her daughter to him. How could Yu Xiaofeng not be shocked?

Was Bibi Dong an idiot?

(If one day, your mother told you to marry a girl you didn't know, what would you do?)

Yu Xiaofeng's emotions churned. He felt that even he himself understood his current situation very clearly. He was merely an adopted child. No matter how foolish Bibi Dong was, she could not possibly joke about her own daughter's lifelong happiness!

Unless... unless I'm overthinking it. The thought suddenly cleared Yu Xiaofeng's mind. His face immediately lit up, and he laughed brightly. "Godmother, who is Qian Renxue? Is she pretty?"

Yu Xiaofeng had spent so many years in Spirit Hall, yet he had never heard Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, or anyone else mention the name Qian Renxue.

Not even Hu Liena, the person closest to him, had ever mentioned Qian Renxue. If Yu Xiaofeng had not been a transmigrator, he definitely would not have thought so much about it.

Bibi Dong smiled and pointed at the girl standing beside her. "She is my daughter, Qian Renxue."

"Do you think she's pretty?"

Yu Xiaofeng turned to look at Qian Renxue, practically drooling. "Pretty. Pretty! Extremely pretty."

"Giggle, giggle, giggle."

Bibi Dong giggled. "Brat, look how happy you are."

Yu Xiaofeng said awkwardly, "Godmother, I'm just too happy, so I got a little carried away."

"By the way, Godmother, if I marry Qian Renxue, can I still marry Hu Liena?"

Bibi Dong smiled. "That depends on whether Nana is willing."

Hu Liena snorted sulkily. "Hmph. Who wants to marry a stupid fool like you?"

Yu Xiaofeng gave a bitter smile, not knowing what he should say.

At that moment, Qian Daoliu spoke. "Xiaofeng, there's no need to rush about marriage. You're both still young. We'll hold your wedding in another five years."

"Then we'll hold a grand wedding and invite all the continent's great experts to bless the two of you."

As Qian Daoliu spoke with a smile, he felt pleased with himself. Let's see where you can run this time.

Yu Xiaofeng nodded, inwardly cursing, You old bastard, so this was where you were waiting for me. Damn it... I knew something was fishy. There was no way they'd let me get such a good deal so easily.

Using marriage to bind my heart—you two really are vicious.

Yu Xiaofeng stood there with a foolish grin. Qian Daoliu spoke again, "Xiaofeng, stay in Spirit Hall from now on. That way, there'll be someone to look after you."

Hearing that, Yu Xiaofeng's eyes turned as he immediately said, "Grandpa Qian, I'm staying at Shrek Academy because I want to understand the situation there. Besides, there's a kid called Tang San. He's highly suspicious. I suspect he's from the Clear Sky Sect, and people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are there too."

"I worked very hard to get into Shrek Academy. I don't want to give up halfway. I hope Grandpa Qian will let me stay there temporarily and complete my cultivation."

Bibi Dong glanced at Qian Daoliu. "Let him go. If he stays in Spirit Hall, he can only become a flower raised in a greenhouse. As the Holy Son, he will face many problems in the future. More experience while he's young will help him later on."

Qian Daoliu thought, If Yu Xiaofeng weren't useful to me, why would I care whether he lived or died?

But he can't be allowed to come to harm before reaching level eighty. What should I do?

After pondering for a moment, Qian Daoliu said, "I'll have Ghost Douluo protect you in secret. If anything comes up, you can order him to handle it."

Yu Xiaofeng eagerly flattered him. "Grandpa Qian and Godmother are the best!"

Well, he had managed not to offend either of them. Bibi Dong looked toward Qian Renxue and said, "Xue'er, spend the next few days getting along well with Xiaofeng. Get to know each other better, so at least you won't be strangers when you're together in the future."

Qian Renxue said nothing and merely nodded obediently.

Hu Liena left together with Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu. Only Yu Xiaofeng and Qian Renxue remained in the room.

With golden hair and golden eyes, Qian Renxue wore a palace-style gauze dress. Her beauty was beyond description.

But Yu Xiaofeng knew that the woman called Qian Renxue before him was very good at disguising herself. How could someone ruthless enough to throw the Heaven Dou Empire into chaos and cause all of Xue Ye's children to die possess such a weak and delicate demeanor?

Qian Renxue was also sizing up Yu Xiaofeng. She felt that the boy before her was nothing more than an ant. Was Hu Liena blind? How could she possibly have taken a liking to such a rogue?

Her gaze became increasingly sharp. Then she assumed a lofty posture and said disdainfully to Yu Xiaofeng, "A toad lusting after swan meat. Are you worthy of being my man?"

Yu Xiaofeng snorted coldly. "Godmother said I should marry you, and Grandpa Qian said it would happen in a few years. Whether I'll marry you or not can be discussed when the time comes."

"After all, you're too ugly. You're not even half as pretty as Nana, and certain parts of you aren't even as big as my little cat girl's. So I still need to think it over."

"After all, Nana is my best choice. In our household, Nana has the final say. Even if I marry you, Nana will have to agree first."

"Godmother and Grandpa Qian were both here just now. I couldn't exactly reject their good intentions, could I? Don't you agree?"

Hu Liena had returned, and from afar, she heard Yu Xiaofeng's words. The anger in her heart instantly vanished. Stupid fool, at least you have a conscience. You still know that I have the final say in our household... That's right. I have the final say.

Listening to Yu Xiaofeng's words, her heart filled with sweetness as she turned and left.

Yu Xiaofeng let out a breath of relief. Auntie, you finally left.

"At the same time—"

As Qian Renxue listened to Yu Xiaofeng's words, her expression grew increasingly stiff, and her rage exploded in an instant.

She raised her hand and slapped at Yu Xiaofeng's face. Seeing this, Yu Xiaofeng dodged with a sidestep, stepped forward, and smacked Qian Renxue on the butt.

A sharp smack rang through the room, instantly leaving Qian Renxue stunned. Her entire body froze stiffly in place.

No one had ever treated her like this from childhood until now. Even during the time she had served as Xue Qinghe's maid, she had never suffered such humiliation. She immediately unleashed all her Soul Power, preparing to fight Yu Xiaofeng to the death.

Seeing Qian Renxue preparing to fight, Yu Xiaofeng immediately said, "You're not my opponent. I advise you to behave yourself. Otherwise, I don't mind hitting you a few more times. The feel was pretty good, anyway."

The enraged Qian Renxue's face immediately turned livid. She said, "First Soul Skill, Angel Assault."

Streams of golden light instantly illuminated the room with dazzling brilliance. All the golden light continuously converged upon Qian Renxue's fist.

Yu Xiaofeng sneered. "You really are fiery."

"Today, this young master will be cool for once. Second Soul Skill, Universal Attraction."

(If you could marry Qian Renxue, just say whether you'd want to or not. Don't fucking talk about anything else. I'll go first: I want to... I hope to see your comments in the chapter reviews. Don't chicken out... everyone's watching.)
