Countless hands rose from the bottom; all of them trying to catch the bouquet. Beyond everyone"s expectations, a gust of wind blew the bouquet to the top of someone"s head. Gu Xijiu looked down and was taken by surprise!The person whose head was. .h.i.t by the bouquet was none other than Shen Nianmo! Shen Nianmo hastily swept the bouquet off his head. Enraged, he looked up and glared right at Gu Xijiu!
Shen Nianmo possessed limpid eyes and a face that was as exquisite as jade. He lifted a finger inside his sleeve and tried to motion a spell to topple the person who threw the bouquet down with an arc of lightning, but when he looked at Gu Xijiu again, he was frozen with shock!
The person in the sky was garbed in a robe of light purple while wearing a terrifying mask that concealed his or her entire face. He could not even identify whether the person was a man or a woman. The gaze behind the mask caused him great anxiety for some reason, rendering him unable to finish the casting of his spell.
Gu Xijiu coughed lightly. "Sorry!" she quickly apologized before disappearing in a flash.
Shen Nianmo was left dumbfounded.
The G.o.d of War, also known as Ye Tianli, who was standing beside him, congratulated him with a smile. "Nianmo, congratulations for being blessed by the lucky star of marriage."
Shen Nianmo raised his eyebrow slightly and asked puzzledly, "What lucky star? Can it raise my external abilities?"
Ye Tianli was speechless while everyone in the crowd laughed cheerfully.
Shen Nianmo looked at the bouquet that he was now holding in his hand. The flowers were still fresh and contained a hint of the faint fragrance of the person in purple just now.
"Brother Nianmo, can you give these flowers to Ziling? Ziling likes flowers." The little girl that Shen Nianmo made cry just now gathered herself and extended to him her plump white arm.
At this moment the newly wedded couple had already left, so the attention of the crowd s.h.i.+fted to Shen Nianmo. Looking at the gestures of the little girl, they felt that both of them were cute and matched each other.
Those among the crowd who were keen discerned that the little girl was the beloved daughter of Lu Nian Zhenren, and he himself was a friend of the Divine Lord Shen Jiuli, who possessed extraordinary prowess in spellcasting. He was truly a man of great powers.
Now his daughter was standing beside Shen Nianmo. The two children looked like a couple together and were extremely pleasing to the eye. The crowd could not help but talk and laugh amongst themselves as they coaxed Shen Nianmo to give the bouquet to her.
Some that were more audacious even teased him. "Nianmo, why don"t you give the bouquet to Ziling and let her be your wife?"
Shen Nianmo feigned deafness to the crowd"s teasing and put the bouquet next to his ears as though as he was listening to something. The crowd looked at him curiously, each wondering what he was going to do.
After a moment, Shen Nianmo moved the bouquet away and looked at Lu Ziling intently. "Sorry, the flowers said that they don"t like you. You"re too fat."
Lu Ziling was embarra.s.sed. Her face flushed with red and she broke into tears again!
How was she fat? She only had a bit of baby fat on her. She was not fat!
…
Gu Xijiu could not sleep again tonight and took another look at that box. She had possessed that box for about two hundred years, but no one has been able to open it. Who was the person that she needed to meet?
The figure of Shen Nianmo flashed before her mind. She rubbed her eyes and felt that that child looked very familiar…
He was so cute that she wanted to hug him.
