Cao Miao knew Tang Miaomiao too well. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he exclaimed, "Is this the kid who made you leave the Land of Heaven and Earth several times in previous years to search for in the Shangjing?"
What?
Fairy Tang actually left the Land of Heaven and Earth and Earth to search for this guy?!
Cao Miao's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire for Gu Chen's publicity, and when Tang Miaomiao actually nodded in agreement, the crowd, who had initially disbelieved him, were once again dumbfounded!
Gu Chen glanced at Cao Miao in surprise. Tang Miaomiao Tang Miaomiao hadn't mentioned the agreement, but since this young master knew she was going to the Shangjing to find him, their relationship must be quite close.
"You!"
However, Kang Zuoqing couldn't stand it. His eyes were blazing with anger as he stared intently at Gu Chen!
Proud as he was, how could he tolerate this! Almost everyone in the Land of Heaven and Earth knew that he was also pursuing Tang Miaomiao, and Tang Miaomiao, on the contrary, not only chased after this nobody, but also foolishly went to find him!
He could barely accept Fan Yingqiu, but he couldn't accept Gu Chen!
"Come out here!" Kang Zuoqing said coldly, "Let's have a friendly spar."
This is a public challenge!
The crowd was incredibly excited. Hearing that Tang Miaomiao had actually condescended to pursue someone who wasn't even from a prominent family, they were extremely indignant. Seeing that Kang Zuoqing had issued a challenge, they also wanted to see what qualifications and abilities this guy had to win Tang Miaomiao's favor!
What gives him the right?
The surroundings were completely silent, and Gu Chen slowly raised his head to look at Kang Zuoqing.
Everyone noticed Gu Chen's icy gaze, and their hearts burned with excitement and anticipation. Was he about to accept the challenge?
But at that moment, a figure slipped between the three and pulled Gu Chen up!
Everyone was stunned, because this person was actually Sun Jiangman!
Then, Sun Jiangman's next sentence shocked everyone even more.
"He's mine!" Sun Jiangman looked coldly at Tang Miaomiao and said, "Tang Miaomiao, you've got the wrong person!"
Although Sun Jiangman ignored Gu Chen all the way up to the summit, she witnessed every move Gu Chen Sun Jiangman during his subsequent conflict with someone.
She knew that Gu Chen was not one to suffer any loss, so Sun Jiangman wasn't worried at all after Ren Chong and Li Yiran approached him. Especially when she saw Gu Chen's ever-present harmless smile, she knew that someone else was about to be in trouble.
Sure enough, Ren Chong and Li Yiran were fighting like dogs, while Gu Chen was unharmed, which further confirmed her guess. She even couldn't help but smile when she saw Gu Chen and Li Yiran chatting happily. However, Kang Zuoqing's arrival made Sun Jiangman a little nervous, afraid that something might really happen here because of what happened halfway up the mountain.
Afterwards, Tang Miaomiao went up the mountain, attracting everyone's attention, which made Sun Jiangman breathe a slight sigh of relief. Because she knew that Kang Zuoqing was pursuing Tang Miaomiao and would definitely put Gu Chen aside.
But to her utter surprise, Tang Miaomiao actually walked towards Gu Chen. It wasn't until Gu Chen said those words and Tang Miaomiao's long-standing smile and tacit agreement that Sun Jiangman realized what was happening!
At this moment, Sun Jiangman felt extremely distressed, as if her beloved possession had been snatched away. Without saying a word, she stepped forward, pulled Gu Chen up, and coldly said:
"He's mine, Tang Miaomiao, you've got the wrong person!"
Sun Jiangman's sudden intervention shocked everyone present!
Her words struck everyone like a thunderbolt! They were all stunned, their eyes bulging, utterly incredulous!
Even Tang Miaomiao was surprised, her face showing astonishment.
What... is going on now?
"Sun Jiangman, what's wrong?" Gu Chen was taken aback, reacting first. Although his face showed surprise, the smile on his lips betrayed his true thoughts.
Sun Jiangman felt somewhat embarrassed by her actions, inwardly blaming herself for her impulsiveness. But noticing everyone's gaze, she refused to back down, glaring fiercely at Gu Chen and saying, "Look what you've done!"
"I didn't do anything," Gu Chen said innocently. "I've been sitting here all by myself, and these people have been coming over one after another. Don't you think I'm being wronged?"
Sun Jiangman thought about it and realized it was indeed true. However, given her temperament, she refused to believe Gu Chen was right and coldly said, "Anyway, it's you who's attracting attention, so the fault lies with you."
"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Gu Chen was pleased rather than angry. Since Sun Jiangman said so, it meant she had forgiven him.
The two were almost flirting, making everyone dizzy, but soon they glared at each other. Sun Jiangman's reputation was not much less than Tang Miaomiao's, and in the hearts of some young masters from middle-class families, Sun Jiangman was the goddess they pursued. After all, Tang Miaomiao was chosen by Fan Yingqiu and was too unattainable.
Getting either of those two would be enough to make anyone laugh in their dreams, but now, this brat they've never even seen before has actually made two of the most beautiful women in the Land of Heaven and Earth fall for him? What kind of luck is this? This guy deserves to be torn to pieces!
However, the person who couldn't stand it the most was actually Cao Miao.
Just like Kang Zuoqing's pursuit of Tang Miaomiao, Cao Miao and Sun Jiangman's childhood sweetheart relationship was also common knowledge in Land of Heaven and Earth. Everyone knew Cao Miao's feelings for Sun Jiangman!
Many people even believed that the two would eventually be together, and marriage was only a matter of time. Cao Miao also thought so!
At this moment, Cao Miao's face was grim as he stared at Gu Chen's hand, which Sun Jiangman was holding, and listened to their conversation. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Manmei, what's wrong with you...?"
"Young Master Cao, I'm sorry, please allow me to finish this matter," Sun Jiangman said calmly.
Cao Miao was speechless for a moment, but his anger burned even brighter.
This was the first time Sun Jiangman had spoken to him in such a tone!
"Tang Miaomiao, Gu Chen is my man." Sun Jiangman looked at Tang Miaomiao and said in a deep voice, "You'd better not get involved with him!"
Tang Miaomiao stood up. She originally wanted to retort, but upon hearing Sun Jiangman's almost commanding tone, she suddenly changed her mind. From childhood to adulthood, Tang Miaomiao had been pampered and spoiled. Despite her cold demeanor, she was a proud and unyielding person at heart. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come all the way here to participate in the Aristocratic Family Assembly to prove herself and avoid Fan Yingqiu.
Now, faced with Sun Jiangman's actions, which were almost a public slap in the face, how could she possibly admit defeat?
