Chapter 475: Let’s Get Married Then
Chu Sihan held her face with both hands and stroked her fair face with his fingers.
He did not speak, but lowered his head and kissed her.
How was a lifetime enough?
If she was his in this lifetime, she had to be his forever!
Lu Sheng did not know what happened to Chu Sihan today, but she felt that he was afraid.
Although he was kissing her, his hand holding her face was trembling slightly.
She opened her eyes slightly and saw his red eyes.
There was an inexplicable sadness in it that she could not see through.
She pulled back slightly and looked at him suspiciously. “Lord, what’s wrong?”
His appearance scared her.
“Nothing. I just haven’t seen you for too long. I want to take a good look at you!”
He smiled and hugged her again. Resting his chin on the top of her head, he remained silent.
Lu Sheng also looked up and hugged him. He was slightly stunned before smiling.
There was still a long way to go in this lifetime. He would settle his problems in the next lifetime.
“Lord, I miss you too!”
Her late reply made the sorrow in Chu Sihan’s eyes fade, leaving only a layer of hazy gentleness.
The two of them hugged each other for a long time until the sounds of chickens crowing could be heard. Then, they reluctantly parted.
He pinched her chin lightly and said hoa.r.s.ely, “I’ll return to the Chu Mansion first and come over to visit you tomorrow morning.”
If possible, he really did not want to be too far away from her.
“Sheng Sheng, let’s get married.”
This way, he could naturally bring her along.
“But… I still have a lot of unfinished business. Moreover, if nothing goes wrong, my brother might get married soon.”
She felt that with Lu Ran’s speed and Leya’s admiration for Lu Ran, their big plans should be completed soon.
“Lu Ran is getting married?”
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows. He had only left for a month. Why was his brother-in-law getting married?
However, he was a little unhappy that someone else had surpa.s.sed him.
No, he had to get married before Lu Ran.
“Let’s get married first. My brother-in-law can wait until next year. Everything has to be first come, first served.”
Even if Lu Ran was his future brother-in-law, he could not cut the queue.
Lu Sheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Lord, if you want to talk about first come, first served, then we’re seven to eight years later than him.”
“That long?”
Chu Sihan frowned. “Which girl is it? Why didn’t you mention her before?”
“She’s a girl from our Liu Yue Village. However, she moved elsewhere a few years ago because of business. She just moved back recently.”
“Childhood sweethearts?”
Lu Sheng nodded. “I guess so. They’ve played together since they were five or six years old.”
Chu Sihan’s heart ached when he heard that.
In his next life, he must be her childhood sweetheart.
“Not even if they are childhood sweethearts. Let’s get married first.”
He grabbed her hand and pulled her back into his arms.
Lu Sheng smiled lightly. “Then… When Master comes back, I’ll discuss with him?”
“You agreed?”
Had he finally waited for it?
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Yes, since you want to get married before Lu Ran, let’s get married.”
She had thought it through this month.
Since they had entered the countryside, they should follow the customs.
She wanted to drag it out until she was twenty years old, but this guy kept nagging at her. It made her feel touched, but also a headache.
Chu Sihan hugged her tighter happily and smiled. “Then, let’s get married tomorrow!”
“Tomorrow?”
Lu Sheng pushed him away. “Are you crazy?”
Was this guy crazy about getting married?
He chuckled softly. “I was just joking.”
How could he neglect his marriage?
They had to have a grand wedding.
“I’m tired. Go back to the Chu Mansion. My master is coming back tomorrow, so I won’t tell him. Speak to him yourself.”
Seeing that Chu Sihan was safe, her tensed nerves finally relaxed.
When she relaxed, fatigue followed.
She yawned and waved goodbye to him.
Chu Sihan raised his eyebrows slightly and strode forward to pull her back again. He held her face and pinched it hard.
Before she could cry out in pain, he lowered his head and quickly sealed her lips, blocking her cries of pain.
The girl’s eyes widened in fury.
When he released her, he quickly jumped a few meters away and stroked his lower lip proudly with his thumb.
“You…”
Lu Sheng gritted her teeth and pointed at him. She suddenly remembered that it was already late at night and could only clench her teeth and stop.
She snorted coldly. “I’m not going to marry you anymore.”
Chu Sihan panicked when he heard that.
He hurried back and begged pitifully, “Don’t! If you feel angry, I’ll let you pinch me back.”
As he spoke, he moved his handsome face closer.
“Chuckle…”
Lu Sheng laughed out of anger and pushed his face back. “Stay away from me.”
“No!”
He leaned forward again and rubbed his head on her shoulder. “Unless you promise me that you won’t be angry anymore, I won’t leave.”
It would be great if he could take the opportunity to stay.
Unexpectedly, Lu Sheng seemed to have guessed his intentions and said straightforwardly, “I forgive you, alright?”
He raised an eyebrow. “Then, let me do it again.”
“Do what?”
Lu Sheng was stunned, not understanding what he meant.
“This…”
He lowered his head and pecked her lips again. “This.”
Lu Sheng: “…Get lost!”
Chu Sihan chuckled and left happily.
—————
The next day.
Lu Sheng walked out of the room with her panda eyes, yawning. Her eyes were still half-opened, and she looked like she was still half-asleep.
“Little niece!”
The sudden sound of surprise scared Lu Sheng, and her sleepiness dissipated.
“Uncle… Uncle Shangguan, you’re back? Where’s my master?”
She looked out but did not see Lu Zhou.
Shangguan Dian smiled and pointed at the kitchen.
“I’m here.”
Lu Zhou walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of tea and Lu Ran.
“Master!”
Lu Sheng jumped over and held his arm. She chuckled.
Seeing Lu Sheng wake up, Lu Ran did not accompany Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian anymore. Instead, he went to the vegetable field to help.
“I didn’t expect you to make this land look so good not long after I returned.”
Lu Zhou looked at the reds and greens on the ground and nodded in satisfaction.
“This is all thanks to Lan Yi’s help.”
Lu Sheng pointed at the surrounding bamboo houses and said, “These bamboo houses were built by Lan Yi himself.”
Of course, she suspected that Lan Yi had used spells to build the houses. Otherwise, how could he have built so many bamboo houses in such a short time?
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “It seems like he’s quite free.”
“Master, why didn’t you see Lan Yi when you came back?”
Lu Sheng agreed with Lan Yi’s efficiency. He was good at building houses and farming.
“He’s back. Hey, isn’t he there?”
Lu Zhou pointed in a direction. Lu Sheng looked up and saw Lan Yi and Three Colors strolling nearby.
When Lu Sheng saw that scene, she could not help but smile and sigh. “I didn’t expect Lan Yi, a mighty Mythical Beast, to like puppies.”
Lu Zhou glanced at Lan Yi and said lightly, “He previously raised a Heavenly Dog. Then, for some reason, that Heavenly Dog disappeared.”
“Little niece, what’s this? Can it be eaten?”
There were already red tomatoes these two days. After Shangguan Dian asked, he took off the redest one without waiting for Lu Sheng’s reply. He wiped it with his clothes and took a bite.
“Yes, it tastes good. It’s sour and sweet.”
He nodded in satisfaction.
Lu Sheng was speechless.
Couldn’t he just eat it? Why ask her?
Forget it if he asked. Couldn’t he wait for her to reply?
Lu Zhou said angrily, “With your personality, I’ll have to go to the Netherworld to get you sooner or later.”
If he encountered a poisonous fruit, his intestines would rot sooner or later.
Shangguan Dian disapproved. “Don’t worry, you don’t have to collect me. The King of Hades won’t dare to accept me.”
“Who would I not dare to accept?”
A figure pushed open the gate and walked in.
The person was none other than the King of Hades whom Shangguan Dian had mentioned just now.
Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up.
She suddenly stood up and quickly led him to a seat.
“Uncle King of Hades, have you bought all my things?”
When Lu Sheng asked this, not only Shangguan Dian, but even Lu Zhou couldn’t help but listen attentively.
“It’s all done. Look at what’s missing. I’ll bring them back for you next time.”
Lu Sheng received the jade hairpin and closed her eyes to check.
She realized that there were all kinds of dead and living things over the years.
Even the cows she asked him to raise were inside.
She retracted her gaze and thanked him with a smile. “Thank you, Uncle King of Hades!”
“Cough—”
The King of Hades glanced at Lu Zhou and coughed lightly. “Junior Brother, besides giving Xiao Sheng her things today, I also want to tell you something.”
“With me?”
Lu Zhou poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of him. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Uncle King of Hades, Master, Uncle Demon King, you guys chat first. I’ll get busy first.”
Lu Sheng, who had received the items, was in a good mood. When she heard that they had something to discuss, she hurriedly stood up and went to the side.
The periphery of the vegetable field was empty. The gra.s.s was quite tender and could be cut to raise cows.
After raising cows, she would not lack milk to drink.
There were both tapioca flour and tapioca. Coincidentally, the newly bought tapioca could be used to fill some empty s.p.a.ces.
However… why did she feel like two items were missing?
She frowned slightly. After thinking for a long time, she realized that there were everything on the list except for the generators and gas oil.
Forget it. It was not good for these two items to appear here. It was better to fiddle with other things.
There were also corn and pumpkin seeds, ten sacks of brown sugar, ten sacks of white sugar, and a pile of ice sugar.
Lu Sheng was a hardworking person. She did whatever she wanted.
She took out the corn seeds and pumpkin seeds and soaked them in water. Then, she casually planted the pumpkin seeds in an empty s.p.a.ce.
On the other hand, the King of Hades looked at Lu Zhou and nervously swallowed his saliva.
His son had gone to the Netherworld early in the morning and asked him to come over and tell Lu Zhou about the marriage proposal. This was the first time in more than ten thousand years that he was talking about marriage for his son. Moreover, his in-law was his Junior Brother, so he was a little nervous.
He had thought that his son would return to the Netherworld to be the Ghost King after simply letting him survive the love tribulation in the human world.
However, looking at his son’s att.i.tude now, it seemed like he did not want to return to the Netherworld.
“Senior Brother, if there’s anything, tell me.”
Seeing that he did not speak, Lu Zhou could not help but frown.
“It’s…” The King of Hades coughed lightly. “I came here today for the marriage of the two children.”
A marriage between two children?
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “Senior Brother, you’re talking about your son and my daughter?”
The King of Hades nodded. “Yes!”
“Do you need to ask me about this?” Lu Zhou narrowed his eyes. “Can’t we just get the Chu Mansion to propose the marriage?”
Why did Chu Sihan ask his biological father to propose marriage?
Did he want to keep occupying his daughter?
Wishful thinking. He would definitely not stay in this lousy place for a few more decades. His daughter could not continue staying here either.
“We’ve agreed that in this lifetime, after that kid’s love tribulation is over, they won’t have anything to do with each other anymore.”
If not for the money he owed this old man, he would not have tricked his daughter.
“Well… It depends on the young people, right?”
The King of Hades laughed dryly and said, “What if Lu Sheng wants to stay by Han Er’s side forever?”
“That won’t do either.”
Lu Zhou snorted coldly. “If your son hadn’t reached his peak in cultivation, would my daughter have come here? If my daughter hadn’t come, would my skin, which rarely appears in a thousand years, have been destroyed?”
The King of Hades was in the wrong and did not dare to retort.
Lu Zhou glanced at him and snorted coldly. “We agreed that one lifetime is one lifetime. If he has the ability in his next life, let him personally go to the modern world.”
Anyway, he would not stay here anymore.
When the King of Hades heard that, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled and nodded. “Okay!”
Whether they could interact in the next life depended on that kid’s luck.
Anyway, as his father, he had already fought for what he could.
“Then this marriage…”
Lu Zhou said lightly, “Go back and tell him to ask the Chu Mansion to propose the marriage.”
“There’s no need to go back and say it. I already know.”
Chu Sihan pushed open the gate and strode in.
He first bowed to the three of them and smiled. “Thank you, Uncle-Master Lu, for fulfilling my wis.h.!.+”
“You don’t have to thank me.”
He owed his father this.
When he thought of this, Lu Zhou looked guiltily at the busy Lu Sheng.
Sigh, it was all his fault for being too poor back then. Otherwise, he would not have asked the King of Hades for a loan.
He had lost a daughter for nothing. His heart ached!
However, rather than finding someone else to be his son-in-law, he might as well find Chu Sihan.
After all, he knew everything. Moreover, this kid was indeed good to his daughter.
Shangguan Dian had been eating from the beginning to the end. He held the newly plucked tabasco pepper and sized it up curiously.
Lu Zhou saw this scene from the corner of his eye, but he did not stop him. Instead, he watched with interest.
“Ah Zhou, is this delicious?”
He asked Lu Zhou, who shrugged and said, “I haven’t eaten either.”
Chu Sihan glanced at it and found it familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen it before.
“This is chi…”
“Bah… Hiss—”
Before the King of Hades could finish his sentence, Shangguan Dian had already bitten off a portion…
“What the h.e.l.l is this? Why is it so spicy?”
He hissed and threw away the chili in his hand, his expression a bit twisted.
