"Brother Chentian, you can't leave now." Ling Xianzi suddenly spoke, causing the atmosphere of the entire banquet to become solemn in an instant.
Chen Tian turned around and his expression became a little silent.
The two looked at each other for a long time, neither of them spoke. Finally, Chen Tian broke the calm in front of him: "Senior Ling, do you still have any advice?"
At this time, everyone heard the unkindness in Chen Tian's tone.
However, it doesn't matter if it's not good, this is Qinglong City, and Chen Tian is still in the Ling family at this moment.
"Little friend, you may have misunderstood. It's not that I want to force you to stay, but that you really can't leave now." Ling Xianzhi said seriously.
"Why is this?" Chen Tian asked doubtfully.
"Hey, little brother, you still don't know that because you and my daughter appeared together, the city has become a riot. If you leave now, my daughter's reputation will be destroyed in your hands." Ling
The prophet said with a melancholy sigh.
When Chen Tian heard this, his expression changed slightly: "Senior, I don't quite understand what you mean."
"To be honest, my little girl's bloodline can be reconciled with yin and yang. To put it simply, if we become husband and wife, we can increase each other's cultivation. This is a rare physique in the world. Therefore, throughout Qinglong City, countless family geniuses are deeply in love with my little girl and come to propose marriage.
There is an endless stream of people.”
"But if this matter is spread now, it will not only ruin my daughter's reputation, but if she leaves my Ling family at this moment, she will probably be eaten alive by those geniuses." Ling Xianxian said as if he was thinking about Chen Tian.
Chen Tian seemed a little silent.
Seeing that Chen Tian was moved, Prophet Ling added, "Besides, Xue'er has been engaged for a long time. Just this morning, someone from the Huangfu family sent a letter of divorce."
"What, father, you said a divorce letter, Huangfu Long dares to divorce me?" Ling Xue's figure took a few steps back, her face was pale and her delicate body was trembling.
"Hey, I originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell you, but now that little brother Chentian is leaving, it makes me very embarrassed." Prophet Ling looked at Chentian.
"Senior, this matter has nothing to do with me, right?" Chen Tian felt that this was an internal matter within their Qinglong City, and he didn't seem to be involved in it.
"Wrong, this matter now has something to do with you, and it has a lot to do with it." Ling Xianzhi said.
"Is it related to me?" Chen Tian looked solemn.
"My son has broken off the engagement, and now the city is in turmoil. We, the Ling family, need you to come forward and explain." Prophet Ling said.
"Explanation? If the explanation is useful, senior wouldn't waste any time here." Chen Tian sneered.
"You are right. People's hearts are not as old as they used to be. Once rumors spread, people who are jealous of my Ling family or have hatred against my Ling family will now be eager to add insult to injury to us. Of course, if it were a few days ago, we wouldn't have to worry at all.
But in the Skull Island incident, more than half of our strong men were killed or injured, and now the Ling family is riddled with holes."
"Then why did senior insist on keeping me?" Chen Tian always felt that there was something in this old fox's words, but he couldn't figure it out for a moment. Even if he stayed, it would be of no use.
"I'm leaving you here, hoping that things will turn around. It would be best for you and my daughter to come forward to clarify the misunderstanding. If not, there will be the worst result." Ling Xiehe suddenly paused and looked at Chen Tian.
"The worst possible outcome?"
"Yes, in the worst case, I can only betroth my daughter to you." After Ling's words fell, the entire Ling family was shocked. Ling actually wanted to betroth the Ling family's darling daughter to a poor child.
Chentian's expression changed, but he didn't speak.
"Although you were born in the wasteland, your character and talent are not bad. If our Ling family puts all our effort into cultivating you, maybe you can be promoted to my first-class genius."
Prophet Ling has been looking at Chen Tian's expression.
There was an expression of displeasure on this young man's face, and Prophet Ling's heart was trembling wildly. If other people heard this, they would be too excited to speak, but Chen Tian was too calm, so calm that it was completely inconsistent with his identity.
.
"Senior, what if this junior doesn't want to?"
"What, you're not willing yet? Have you ever asked me if I'm willing?" Ling Xue had already encountered a divorce letter. When she heard that her father was going to betroth her to Chen Tian, she thought she would strongly resist, but she didn't.
Thinking of not being angry at all, Ling Xue suddenly burst out after hearing Chen Tian's words.
With tears in his eyes, he left the banquet.
"Xiaoxue." The female member of the Ling family chased after her.
Ling Xianhe looked helpless. Seeing Ling Xue's actions, his mood became even more depressed. Judging from Ling Xue's attitude, could it be that she was interested in this boy?
The other Ling family members looked at Chen Tian with hatred. He actually refused such a great thing.
"Chen Tian, there is no harm in this matter for you. You should stay and think about it first. Seeing Xue'er so sad, how can a father not feel sad? If you still have some conscience, go and persuade her.
Well, I can't get too involved in the affairs of you young people." After Ling Xie's words, Chen Tian's eyes became more solemn.
"Senior, I'd better go find Miss Ling Xue and explain it clearly."
Chen Tian also knew that rejecting Ling Xue in front of so many people just now made a big girl lose face and feel guilty, so Chen Tian also chased after her.
Only the Ling family was left at the entire banquet.
After Chen Tian left, Ling Yizhi walked up to Prophet Ling and said, "Brother, are you kidding me? Instead of leaving him alone, you want to marry Xiaoxue to him. How is this possible? Xiaoxue is the most important person in my Ling family.
ah."
Prophet Ling suddenly sneered and said: "This is just a temporary measure. After all, he is the benefactor who saved my little girl. If he takes action now, wouldn't it be reviled?"
"Brother, what do you mean?" Ling Yizhi's eyes were cold.
Prophet Ling sneered, as if he had a plan in mind.
…
The Ling family's mansion, the courtyard where the direct relatives of the Ling family live.
Chen Tian hesitated in front of Ling Xue's room, hesitating to speak.
"Chen Tian, there's something wrong with this matter. That old guy has no good intentions." Jian Lao thought about it and felt that something was wrong.
"I've thought about it too, but isn't it too unbelievable to force him to stay with me and ask me to marry his daughter?" Chen Tian couldn't figure out these two points.
"It's better to leave the Ling family as soon as possible. Our goal is Sihai Academy. We will try our best to prepare for the Kyushu Competition in these four years without causing any extraneous problems." In four years, Chen Tian will reach a height that the Ling family can never imagine in their entire life.
.
Chentian didn't have time to waste in a place like this.
"Let me explain it to this woman." After arriving here, Chen Tian left after explaining clearly.
Jian Lao also knew Chen Tian's character, so he didn't stop him.
"Miss Lingxue."
Chen Tian called out, but there was no response.
"Miss Lingxue, I didn't mean it. I just said that in a moment of impatience. I didn't mean to embarrass the girl. It's just that Chen Tian has the key. Besides, I was born in a barren land and I didn't dare to say anything to Miss Ling."
I have some misconceptions that this trip to the Ling family has brought a lot of trouble to Miss Ling, so Chen Tian would like to apologize."
Chen Tian's attitude was sincere, and his words echoed in the courtyard.
But in the end no response was received.
"I am saying goodbye to Miss Ling now. If we are destined to meet each other from all over the world," Chen Tian sighed, and after finishing speaking, he turned to leave.
At this time, the door opened: "You, who do you think you are now?"
Chen Tian turned around and saw that Ling Xue's eyes were slightly red, and she had obviously cried.
"Miss Ling, it's best for me to leave."
"You coward, I don't care about your birth, but you don't even have the courage to take responsibility. You disappoint me so much. Go away and never let me see you." As she spoke, Ling Xue's tears moistened her cheeks.
"Miss Ling, what are you..."
"Get out of here, I don't want to see you."
Chen Tian had no choice but to leave.
Ling Xue panicked for a moment: "Chentian, you loser, if you really leave, I will die in front of you."
Chentian: "..."
"Miss Ling, what do you mean?"
"You, you, you are so angry with me. Now the whole Qinglong City knows that you and I have an unusual relationship. Even if we are innocent, who will believe what I have done? Huangfu Longxiu and I, even you did the same
Me, do you look down upon me as a divorced person?"
"Miss Ling, I never meant this." Chen Tian explained.
"Then why are you so indifferent to me? Am I not beautiful enough for you to like me?" Ling Xue said with tears in her eyes. Her tears were very real and she felt extremely wronged.
"Miss Ling is extremely beautiful, but Chen Tian has his own heart, and he has a wife in his hometown. I forgive Chen Tian for not abandoning his wife and getting married to Miss Ling."
"You, you have a wife, but for the sake of your poor wife in your hometown, you don't want to marry into my Ling family." In Ling Xue's heart, even if she gets married to Chen Tian, it would be Chen Tian marrying into the Ling family. This is the pride in her bones.
But undoubtedly his words made Chen Tian's only good impression towards her disappear.
"Miss Ling, you and I are from different worlds, so I'm sorry."
"Chentian, you dare to leave." Ling Xue roared, almost in a commanding tone. She couldn't believe that a young man who walked out of the wasteland dared to refuse her kindness.
Being treated by Huangfu Longxiu had already made her lose face and turned her into a laughingstock. Now she was treated like this by Chen Tian. This was undoubtedly a second injury and insult to her.
Ling Xue was proud by nature, and now her true colors were revealed. She looked down on Chen Tian from the bottom of her heart, but for the sake of her own reputation, she had chosen to give in, but she didn't expect that Chen Tian would be so ignorant of praise.
Chen Tian didn't look back and headed towards the door.
"Chentian, if you take one more step forward, I will die for you."
"Girl, your body and skin are affected by your parents. You should cherish life. Chen Tian has made up his mind. Miss Ling must not make fun of her own life." Chen Tian was resolute and ignored Ling Xue's roar.
How could a proud woman like Ling Xue die?
"Chen Tian, I, Ling Xue, will never forgive you in this life, I hate you." At that moment, Ling Xue's goodwill towards Chen Tian disappeared, replaced by indelible resentment.
