Chapter 121 - Proposing Marriage to Whom? (3)
Elegance Lagoon Pavilion, in the reception room of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy…
“Miss, haven’t you made up with Deputy Leader Ye?” Feng Da couldn’t help asking when he walked to Leng Ruoxue’s side. During the past two days, the tension between Deputy Leader Ye and their young lady had made things so tense that they didn’t dare to speak loudly, and everyone was very cautious.
“He refuses to talk to me, so there’s nothing I can do!” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly. Isn’t Freak a little too petty? It’s been more than two days, and he’s still ignoring me.
“Miss, men need to be coaxed. You are a woman, so you should give in to Deputy Leader Ye!” Feng Da said, thinking that he was being very fair.
When Leng Ruoxue heard Feng Da’s words, she broke out in cold sweat. What does he mean by men need to be coaxed? What does he mean by women should give in to men?
Why does this sound so uncomfortable to me? Isn’t it the opposite?! I might not have been in love in my previous life, but you shouldn’t lie to me like this!
“Miss, go and coax Deputy Leader Ye. He’s easy to coax,” Feng Da continued.
“Oh, alright!” She couldn’t continue like this. She was really not used to having Freak not sticking to her!
Leng Ruoxue left the reception room and went straight to Freak’s room.
She knocked on the door of the room, but no one answered.
No one? I didn’t hear Freak going out. Leng Ruoxue waited for a while and was about to leave when the door opened.
“What are you doing?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking when she entered the room. Freak is really too abnormal.
“In a daze!” Freak said coldly, his eyes still a little red.
“Are you still angry? I was wrong. Don’t be angry, okay?” Leng Ruoxue coaxed patiently.
Freak lowered his head and didn’t say anything…
“I’m talking to you. Did you hear me?”
Freak still didn’t say anything…
“If you’re not going to say anything, I’m leaving!” Leng Ruoxue threatened and turned around to leave.
She had just taken two steps when a pair of strong arms hugged her tightly.
“You’re not allowed to go!” Freak said domineeringly as he hugged her even more tightly.
“You’re ignoring me, but I’m not allowed to leave?” Leng Ruoxue said deliberately, but she was overjoyed in her heart. Hmph! Freak isn’t the only one who can act.
“You bullied me first,” Freak said aggrievedly.
“I…” Leng Ruoxue was about to say something when her grandfather interrupted her.
“Xue’er, someone from the Huo family is here.” Leng Qingtian knocked on Ye Chen’s door.
“Okay, Grandpa.”
“Freak, could the Huo family be here to settle scores with you?” Leng Ruoxue guessed. It would be strange if the Huo family would let Freak go after he beat up the genius young master of the Huo family to the point that his face flew all over the place!
“Okay, then you have to protect me,” Ye Chen said a little arrogantly. Oh, Xue’er smells so good and feels so soft!
“Let’s go take a look!” Leng Ruoxue said. There are still three rounds before the individual competition is over. What does the Huo family want by sending someone here at this time?
“Must we go?” Freak said reluctantly. How could he bear to leave when a beauty was in his arms? Boohoo… This is such a bad time. His patience for the past two days was all for this moment!
“Grandpa called us, so of course we have to go,” Leng Ruoxue said. Grandpa won’t bother me unless it’s something important.
“Alright then!” Freak said reluctantly, but he refused to let go of Xue’er. He hadn’t hugged her enough yet!
“Let go!” How can we go out like this!
“No! I haven’t hugged you enough!” Freak said willfully.
“Let’s go see what’s the matter first. I’ll let you hug me when we’re back,” Leng Ruoxue coaxed. Why does Freak behave like a child at times?
“It’s a promise!” Freak said happily.
“Yes, I said so.”
After leaving the room, they went to the reception room, where an elder sent by the Huo family was waiting for her.
“Lass, this is the Huo family’s first elder,” Elder Qiu introduced.
“Greetings, First Elder.” Leng Ruoxue greeted the tall and thin man, who was around 50 years old.
“Hehe, Miss Leng is too polite.” The Huo family’s first elder looked at Leng Ruoxue with satisfaction. Leng Ruoxue was no longer the Leng Ruoxue of the past. She was no longer the hateful simpleton! Who knew how many people were thinking of her. But only their young master was worthy of such a woman with both strength and beauty.
The Huo family’s first elder thought of his mission this time. He casually glanced at Ye Chen beside Leng Ruoxue and frowned slightly. Although Ye Chen was strong, he had no way to compare with their young master in terms of identity and status. Therefore, he was very confident that Leng Ruoxue would definitely make the best choice after hearing his intentions.
“First Elder, what brings you here today?” Leng Ruoxue asked bluntly. Her time was precious, so it was better to get straight to the point.
“Hehe, Miss Leng, don’t be anxious! Listen to me slowly.” The first elder was very calm.
“First Elder, please speak directly. We have matches the day after tomorrow!” Leng Ruoxue said. What she implied was that he should say it quickly and that they didn’t have so much time to waste with him.
“Hehe, Miss Leng is an impatient person,” the first elder said with a smile, his expression very amiable.
“It’s good that First Elder knows.” Leng Ruoxue was losing her patience with this slow first elder.
“Hehe, it’s like this. General Leng, Miss Leng, I’m here today to propose marriage.” The first elder revealed his purpose. But his words were like a bomb that almost blasted the souls of everyone present out of their bodies.
“Pro-propose marriage? To whom?” Leng Qingtian stammered. Am I hearing things?
“Of course it’s Miss Leng!” the first elder said matter-of-factly.
“What?” Freak was furious when he heard this. Does the Huo family treat me as a decoration? They actually came to propose marriage to my fiancée. They’re really going too far!
