Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Han Xiao and Gu Qingluan met four years ago when she embarked on her first sea voyage. She had saved Han Xiao, who was then in a critical state of demonic possession, on an island. At that time, besides Han Xiao, there was also a group of people chasing after him on the island.
Gu Qingluan had come to his rescue, and from that moment, Han Xiao regarded her as his benefactor.
Over time, their relationship evolved into a friendship.
Despite his youthful appearance, Han Xiao was actually nearing fifty years old, and Gu Qingluan had no qualms about addressing him as “Uncle.”
Han Xiao treated both her and Xiaonan well, like a caring elder, always protecting them.
His personality was unrestrained and wild, and he never hesitated to stand up against anyone who bullied them.
Gu Qingluan had a premonition that Han Xiao might give Feng Tianlan a hard time, but considering Feng Tianlan’s formidable strength, if they were to fight, they might end up demolishing the house.
After a few thoughts swirled in her mind, Gu Qingluan curved her lips into a faint smile. “It’s not that, 1 just wanted to remind Uncle Han that the groom’s strength is extraordinary.”
“Heh, don’t worry, 1 won’t pick a fight with him.”
With a touch of arrogance, he raised an eyebrow. “But if he wants to marry Little Qingluan, he’ll have to meet the requirements. If he falls short, Uncle Han can always find you a better one.”
With that, he strode out of Shallow Clouds Residence.
“Master, this Han elder…” Qianhuan and the others were astonished.
Was the master’s elder here to cause trouble?
There were many onlookers outside, and if the wedding were disrupted, the master might become the subject of ridicule.
“It will be fine; let him do as he pleases. We shouldn’t discourage his intentions,” Gu Qingluan said with confidence.
If Feng Tianlan couldn’t handle such a minor challenge, she wouldn’t recognize him.
Gu Qingluan didn’t follow him outside, but Gu Xiaonan wanted to see what was happening, and Feng Yuanxi was concerned that his royal father might be tested, so they both went outside.
Gu Qingluan nodded and allowed them to go.
At the entrance of the Jun Residence, only Su Lie was overseeing everything.
This naturally led to criticism, especially from the Gu family, who were ridiculed.
Gu Qingluan was willing to forgo having any elders from her family attend the wedding, which indicated her distant relationship with them. It was even colder than a typical relative’s relationship.
Amidst the discussions, some people noticed a white-haired man in black approaching from a distance.
Feng Tianlan was the first to take notice.
When he saw the man’s face, his expression subtly changed.
He had never seen this man before. Despite the white hair, the man possessed remarkable good looks and a powerful aura.
When did such a character appear in the Jun Residence?
In an instant, countless thoughts raced through Feng Tianlan’s mind.
Meanwhile, Han Xiao had crossed the threshold and stood before the crowd.
He casually scanned the surroundings and s.n.a.t.c.hed the gift list.
“Hey, you…” The person who was about to read the gift list froze when he was met with Han Xiao’s cold gaze, and his voice caught in his throat.
People around them started discussing.
“Who is this guy? He just arrived and already wants something. He’s got some nerve!”
Some admirers were holding their faces, their eyes sparkling. “I haven’t seen him before, but he’s really good-looking. A rare handsome man. Of course, compared to Prince Lan, he falls slightly short.”
“What does he want to do? Is he here to steal the bride?” The pa.s.serby who said this felt strangely excited.
“Uh, I don’t think so. Didn’t he come out of the Jun Residence? Maybe he’s a friend of the Guardian Princess?”
As the center of attention, Han Xiao quickly glanced at the gift list. He had intended to say a few words, but after looking at the list, he had to admit that this Royal Prince Lan had spared no expense.
It was estimated that even if he emptied all of Tianluo Gate’s treasures, they wouldn’t be worth as much as the items listed on this gift list.
He lightly flicked the list and handed it back to the person in charge, then his gaze fell upon Feng Tianlan’s face.
Tsk, he looks like trouble.. Could it be that Little Qingluan fell for this face and decided to marry him?
