Chapter 32: The Choice
Guo Ming was noncommittal, but said, "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
Han Rui thought for a moment, of course he understood what the other party meant, although he didn't understand the other party's intentions, he still wisely kept silent. Guo Ming saw that he didn't answer, and he didn't care, so he continued: "I knew at a glance that you were an iron-blooded man living in the barracks, and his body was righteous, so I deliberately reminded you. Love at first sight exists, but this probability is too small, do you think it is right to determine a woman's happiness in her life through this so-called blind date method? Men are tired of spending a lot of time drinking, but can women do this? What kind of girl is Ziyu, I believe you also know the way, do you think it is what you hope for a girl who is so fond of the aura of heaven and earth to be lonely all her life?"
Thinking of the girl's smiling appearance, Han Rui didn't think about it, and immediately said, "Of course I don't want to." ”
Guo Ming smiled and said softly: "Ziyu is only sixteen years old, she has the right to choose everything for herself, she has already asked me to pretend to be her suitor, but I have a last resort and must give up, so I will give you this opportunity." Of course, nothing happened afterwards, and if you had the chance, you might have both stayed and flown together. ”
After finishing speaking, Guo Mingjing left, leaving Han Rui stunned.
This is not to say that Guo Ming is in vain, when he really arrived at this villa, Guo Ming found that he was really a frog at the bottom of the well before. Not to mention anything else, he has already seen at least four or five people here who are enough to match him, he is not a fool, these people who come are not the peak strength of a martial artist at all, although he is a cultivator, the starting point is good, but what can he do, he must be obscure before the cultivation is not completed. He could have just left, but what about his parents, what should they do? It's just that all the leaders here are the leaders of the county, but there are also high-ranking officials in the province and the city, and so many people have come to the birthday party of the descendants of a family, and he can't imagine how much influence the family has.
Looking at the people coming and going around him, Guo Ming felt a deep loss for the first time, which was a loss of his identity. Things gather by like, people by groups, what kind of identity determines what kind of friends you can make, there are not many children of the family here, but none of them talk to themselves. What does this mean, Guo Ming used to think that these things were vulgar and he could ignore them, but when he was really in such a situation, he didn't think so in his heart.
What people are afraid of is isolation, Guo Ming is a teenager after all, although he reads a lot and dabbles in a lot of things, but this can't change his young mentality. There were a lot of desserts and foreign wine in the center of the huge ball, and there were many tables around it, and people gathered in twos and threes and talked softly.
Guo Ming sat lonely in the corner, looking at the richly dressed young talents, his brows were lightly opened, although these people were excellent, they still had a great distance from themselves, no matter what, they would one day be immortal, roaming among the stars, how carefree they were at that time. With the Nine Heavens Galaxy in the palm of his hand, he has crossed the five lakes and seas in a moment, becoming the world's top master. Do they really want to envy everything they have at the moment?
No, it's not necessary, Guo Ming figured this out, and a smile on the corner of his mouth hung on his face again.
Chen Ziyu's boudoir, Chen Baichuan looked at Chen Ziyu and said softly: "Ziyu, there are many talents from the family today, you can take a good look later." ”
Chen Ziyu was wearing a pink skirt with a few delicate lotus flowers at the hem, which echoed the flush on her face. She wore a lot of makeup on her face, two crystal pendants on her ears, and a beautiful blue diamond around her neck. Hearing this, her delicate body was shocked, and she said astringently: "Does it really have to be like this?"
"This is your fate, Chen Baichuan couldn't bear to say. ”
The hope in Chen Ziyu's eyes quickly sank. Chen Baichuan also felt a pain in his heart, and said: "Don't blame Dad, I am also forced to do so, this is our family rule." Each daughter of the Chen family chooses either one from the family or an excellent man from the common people. ”
"What? There is a second way of saying it, Chen Ziyu said in surprise. ”
Looking at his daughter's renewed expression of hope, Chen Baichuan sighed deeply and said, "It's just that the second situation is rare, and he needs to get the approval of several family elders." ”
"What do you mean by the agreement of several elders?" Chen Ziyu continued to ask as if she hadn't heard her father's sigh. ”
Chen Baichuan had no choice but to say: "Several elders are the foundation of my family, and their skills are profound, if someone wants to marry the daughter of my Chen family, they must meet their recognition of character and martial arts, Ziyu, you also know that there are many real folk masters besides the children of the family? Of course, I don't deny that there are, but even if they pass, they must agree to a request of the Chen family." ”
"What request?" Chen Ziyu said in a gloomy tone. After listening to her father's narration, she somewhat understood the difficulty, who were the elders of the family, and the ones they selected were definitely not comparable to the ordinary children of the family, at least they were also the top, so where could there be such a master!
The next four words made Chen Ziyu's heart cold, "Enter the Chen family." The four words completely shattered Chen Ziyu's hopes, it was definitely a shame for ancient men, even if it was relatively open now, but under normal circumstances, who would want to join it? Not to mention that it was such an outstanding talent, the possibility of him joining the army was almost zero.
Seeing that Chen Ziyu was depressed, Chen Baichuan gritted his teeth and continued: "At least none of my Chen family has been in the past hundred years. He must do this, only by doing this can Chen Ziyu's careful thinking be completely cut off, after thinking about it, he finally understood the reason why Chen Ziyu wanted Guo Ming to come, he laughed at Chen Ziyu at the same time, he felt sad for Guo Ming, how great is the strength of the family, if Chen Ziyu announced in public that Guo Ming was her boyfriend, and Guo Ming readily agreed, then he can be sure that Guo Ming will be unlucky, some of the children of those families are not very good, but behind the scenes, the whole person is absolutely first-class. Oh, what a senselessness for the ignorant!
After a while, Chen Ziyu wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked in the mirror, forced a smile to herself, and said softly: "Dad, I understand." ”
wanted to reach out and touch his daughter's face, but Chen Baichuan found that he was powerless to do it, when Ziyu's mother entrusted Ziyu to herself, she once let herself take good care of her, but did she do it? What does a woman want most in her life, not money, not power, just a person who can be trusted, but she can't really make a choice!
Retracting his hand dejectedly, Chen Baichuan turned around and said, "Ziyu, no matter how big or small the family is outside, as long as you like it, I will definitely let you get your wish." After saying this, Chen Baichuan left quickly.
Staring at his father's swift figure, Chen Ziyu's tears still flowed, his father was on the run! Guo Ming was right, he really didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of happiness, his father's love for him had always been ignored, and his father's words just now were already beyond his authority. Chen Ziyu naturally understands that there are only a few protagonists today, and the other children of the small family are only supporting roles. Among them, there are a few talents that they really need to choose, including the Oriental Sword of the Dongfang family, Han Rui of the Han family, and Sun Ru of the Sun family, these three people are the protagonists of today. couldn't help but think of Guo Ming outside, and muttered: "No matter how good they are, I'd rather choose Guo Ming, that little ruffian, is it just possible?"
The lonely and bitter sadness climbed up her beautiful cheeks, like a black cry of lover separation, like a piece of residual blood in a snowy night, as if the eyes of holding hands were hazy, making people so heartbroken and so pitiful.
But what can it be? The cage of the world is imprisoning herself, can she escape as a weak woman? Maybe only God knows the way, right?
