Hearing Su Chen's words, a shy blush spread across Lan Xinyi's pretty face, but there was also a sweet feeling!
Su Chen smiled encouragingly.
Lan Xinyi gathered her courage, looked up at Su Chen, and said:
"I want you to be my boyfriend."
As soon as the words fell, Su Chen was dumbfounded!
He never expected such words to come out of Lan Xinyi's mouth!
Although he knew Lan Xinyi probably had feelings for him, of course, he also liked this kind and beautiful eldest lady of Yunhai Hall!
It would be quite normal if they became a couple someday!
But he still didn't expect Lan Xinyi would walk into his room at this time to confess so directly!
This was too sudden, it made Su Chen's heart thump non-stop!
"Xinyi, what did you say?"
Su Chen still couldn't believe it and widened his eyes:
"You want me to be your boyfriend?!"
Seeing his reaction, Lan Xinyi suddenly realized she misspoke out of nervousness, her face turned a deep red like a ripe peach, ready to burst with juice at a bite!
Lan Xinyi stamped her foot and said:
Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately understood, and his previously excited heart calmed down a little!
"Is there a pursuer, and you want me to be a shield?"
Su Chen blinked at Lan Xinyi and smiled.
Lan Xinyi was surprised, her beautiful eyes widened!
"Otherwise, why would you ask me to pretend to be your boyfriend?"
Su Chen said with a smile.
Lan Xinyi nodded, then looked at Su Chen expectantly:
"Of course, tell me, what's going on?"
He naturally agreed to Lan Xinyi's request in one go.
Lan Xinyi then gave a simple explanation of the situation! For more chapters visıt nοvelfire.net
It turned out that two years ago, a young man from a top-tier sect in the Ancient Martial World met Lan Xinyi once and instantly fell for her.
This was quite normal, after all, Lan Xinyi's appearance was a rarity in the Ancient Martial World!
Even though top-tier powers and first-tier powers are different circles with little interaction, it's not nonexistent, since they all belong to the Ancient Martial World!
Moreover, Yunhai Hall is the pinnacle of first-tier powers, and the Hall Master Lan Minghe is almost at the Condensation Pill Realm, so some interactions are natural!
However, he then went out for training according to his family rules, so the matter was put aside!
In the Ancient Martial World, the more powerful a force is, the more it requires young people to go out for training after reaching a certain age, usually two to three years!
It's just that age requirements vary, some are in their teens, others in their early twenties, each force has its own rules!
After all, a flower in a greenhouse, without experiencing wind and rain, won't grow!
People in the Ancient Martial World take martial arts strength as their foundation, so they understand the basic law of survival of the fittest even more!
For example, Lan Xinyi herself, including Ouyang Jing, have both gone through such training!
Even the Huang Family has such rules, though Huang Menglei hadn't reached the required age before!
But the Huang Family agreeing to her going to Yandu is also another form of training!
Of course, there are exceptions!
For example, some extraordinary talents receive special treatment from their sects or families!
Just like the four great prodigies, they follow their own will!
For such extraordinary talents, you can't apply the usual rules!
Back to the young man who fell for Lan Xinyi at first sight; when he returned from training he still couldn't forget her, and immediately asked his family to propose marriage to Yunhai Hall!
Even though the Family Head hesitated because Yunhai Hall is only a first-tier power, he couldn't resist the young man's pleas!
Furthermore, Yunhai Hall is indeed the elite among first-tier powers, and he also knew Lan Xinyi was quite outstanding, so he agreed!
Lan Minghe, though aware his daughter has someone in mind, still had to save face as the other party was from a top-tier power, so he couldn't outright refuse!
The key issue was that his daughter's relationship with Su Chen wasn't confirmed, so he had to leave decisions to the young adults themselves!
The family, hearing Lan Minghe's words, had nothing more to say, so they suggested the two meet and see if there's any chemistry!
Lan Minghe figured his daughter could meet him once or twice and simply say they were incompatible.
Since saying things aren't working out is easy on herself, if the daughter says so then there's no issue.
In fact, Lan Minghe favored Su Chen, as the young man had saved him and even resolved the matter concerning the Great Elder, thus saving the entire Yunhai Hall!
Moreover, his impression of Su Chen was favorable!
Initially, Lan Xinyi also thought she would just meet him a couple of times and tell him they're incompatible.
She didn't tell Su Chen because she was worried he'd misunderstand.
However, she didn't expect that after being rejected twice, the man kept pestering her!
Today, he even invited her to dine at his manor!
Lan Xinyi was truly uneasy, with no other way out, she turned to Su Chen for help.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately smiled and said:
"No problem, I'm a professional!"
Lan Xinyi was puzzled by this!
"Of course, I've been a prop boyfriend for Xinran and Yaning too!"
Su Chen smiled and said, of course, there's also Tang Yun!
Lan Xinyi was even more astonished to hear this, not expecting such a thing!
"But, if you want me to be a prop boyfriend, there needs to be compensation!"
At this moment, Su Chen's lips curled into a mischievous smile.
"What kind of compensation?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Xinyi's heart trembled slightly!
She thought, Xinran and Yaning both had him pretend to be their boyfriend, and now they've become his women!
Was he insinuating something to her?
Thinking of this, Lan Xinyi became uncontrollably shy, her pretty face grew even hotter!
"I need to think about it thoroughly and tell you once I decide!"
Su Chen said with a sly smile.
Lan Xinyi said bashfully, her voice barely audible!
After speaking, Lan Xinyi immediately turned and ran out.
Su Chen then continued his cultivation...
At six o'clock in the evening, Su Chen drove towards Yandu's city center with Lan Xinyi.
Lan Xinyi sat in the passenger seat, feeling anxious and conflicted!
Because today, Su Chen was appearing as her boyfriend, even if only pretending, her heart was still racing!
She couldn't help but glance at Su Chen beside her, only to see him focusing on the road ahead...
