Chapter 399 - 399 Exciting
399 Exciting
Dong Xi immediately became alert. Did Shangguan Patriarch acknowledge her as a son-in-law?
“Little Ya, take this Fellow Daoist to Miss’s room so that she can take a look,” said Shangguan Patriarch.
Dong Xi pinched the back of her hand nervously, her heart actually started to pound.
Umm… They’re about to enter the bridal chamber? How exciting!
Dong Xi had come to the cultivation world and married a wife?
Awooo… It was too exciting.
Shangguan Patriarch saw that Dong Xi was still standing there in a daze and thought that Dong Xi was nervous. Shangguan Patriarch smiled and said, “Fellow cultivator, my daughter is as beautiful as a flower and has a very gentle personality. You don’t have to be nervous.”
Dong Xi nodded stiffly. Little Ya made an inviting gesture and said, “Master, please follow me.”
Dong Xi suppressed her excitement and bowed respectfully to Shangguan Patriarch. Dong Xi said, “Junior will take his leave first.”
After saying that, Dong Xi followed Little Ya and walked along the corridor to Miss Shangguan’s boudoir.
Dong Xi rubbed her hands, still feeling a little nervous.
Dong Xi’s storage bag also had a third-grade sunflower. He wondered if the beauty would like it.
Little Ya sent someone to report. Not long after, a maid came out and said, “Master, Miss invites you in.”
Dong Xi looked at the door like a lecher. Dong Xi said, “Alright… I’ll go in now.”
Dong Xi entered the room and carefully sized it up.
The window was made of thousand-year-old ice, the bed was made of ten-thousand-year-old incense wood, and the bed curtain was made of a foot-long material that could only be woven by the golden silkworm after ten years of spinning silk…
This place was extremely luxurious.
Dong Xi thought of her own cave abode…
She suddenly thought that it was a good idea to be a live-in son-in-law for the Shangguan family.
Shangguan Yun’er sat in front of the dressing table, which was filled with shells and many jewels. The maid held a golden pearl and gestured something in front of Shangguan Yun’er.
At this moment, Shangguan Yun’er had already taken off her veil, revealing a face that could topple a country.
She was really beautiful, so beautiful that it made one feel pity for her.
If Miss Shangguan did not want to return it, Dong Xi thought that living like this was not so bad after all.
Dong Xi’s mind was filled with wild thoughts. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Are you the one who snatched the embroidered ball just now?”
Shangguan Yun’er’s voice was as soft and weak as her appearance.
Dong Xi raised her head and their gazes met in the mirror
Dong Xi was stunned for a moment before she regained her senses. Dong Xi said, “Miss Shangguan, it is me.”
Shangguan Yun’er waved her hand, allowing the maid to leave. Shangguan Yun’er stood up and returned to her senses to look at the youth who had become much shorter. Shangguan Yun’er’s expression was a little complicated.
“All of you can leave. I’ll talk to this Fellow Daoist alone,” said Shangguan Yun’er.
The maids in the room nodded respectfully and then walked out of the room.
When only Shangguan Yun’er and Dong Xi were left in the room, Shangguan Yun’er started to size up Dong Xi even more brazenly.
Dong Xi was a little embarrassed by her stare. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Fellow Daoist, how old are you this year?”
“Exactly 132 years old,” said Dong Xi after thinking for a moment.
Shangguan Yun’er was stunned for a moment before she said, “You don’t look like it at all.”
Dong Xi did not feel guilty at all. She said, “You can’t judge a book by its cover in the cultivation world. I think Miss Shangguan grew up in the cultivation world, so you should know this very well.”
Shangguan Yun’er nodded and did not continue arguing with Dong Xi. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Fellow Daoist, you’re not from here, are you?”
Dong Xi nodded. She had just arrived today and had not even changed her clothes.
The locals of the Void Sea liked to wear thin shark muslin, and their hair would be decorated with all kinds of shells and feathers.
Dong Xi was obviously a foreigner.
“Fellow Daoist, if we get married, can you take me to your house?” Shangguan Yun’er asked.
Dong Xi, “?”
Why did Miss Shangguan want to go back to visit her in-laws?
Could it be that the father and daughter of the Shangguan family had not reached a consensus?
Looking at Shangguan Yun’er’s expectant expression, Dong Xi said, “Perhaps…Maybe.”
“Really?” Shangguan Yun’er said excitedly. “That’s great!”
Dong Xi was even more confused and said directly, “Miss Shangguan, I’ll ask directly. Didn’t Shangguan Patriarch find a live-in son-in-law?”
Shangguan Yun’er bit her lip and looked at Dong Xi faintly. Shangguan Yun’ er said, “Are you really willing to be a live-in son-in-law?”
Shangguan Yun’er’s eyes were filled with anticipation. Dong Xi’s heart was in a dilemma for a long time. She said with difficulty, “I’m willing.”
Shangguan Yun’er, “…”
Shangguan Yun’er’s eyes reddened as she said, “Forget it. You men are all like this. What is your intention by marrying me? You’re all after my father. You might as well go to my father.”
Dong Xi had never coaxed a woman before. Seeing Shangguan Yun’er cry, Dong Xi immediately panicked.
