Chapter 1083: Fulfilling the Promise
Xiao Li’s father let out a cold laugh, pointing at Beichen’s nose and cursing him, "You penniless bastard, how dare you show your face? Can’t you see yourself for what you are?"
"Honey, why waste your words on him? Do we need his consent to take our daughter away? Just take her!!" Xiao Li’s mom clearly didn’t take the frail and seemingly refined Beichen seriously.
Beichen reached into his Taoist robe, and slowly drew out the Peach Wood Sword he carried with him.
His eyes flashed with an eerie sharpness, "Let’s see who dares to take her!"
"What? You’re going to fight us? How ridiculous, you take out a wooden sword to show off? Beat him to death for me." Xiao Li’s mom waved her hand, sternly ordering her helpers to attack.
For a moment, only one among the people Xiao Li’s parents brought held onto Xiao Li.
The others surged forward, and Beichen’s eyes turned a mysterious deep purple, as he drew several yellow paper talismans from his waist.
A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
A white figure suddenly appeared beside Beichen like a phantom, "Wait."
"You... who are you??" The middle-aged woman was stunned, as she saw a long-haired girl in a white dress suddenly appear next to Beichen to intervene, completely shocked and doubtful.
This person appeared so suddenly, at a speed beyond human eye capture, which seemed quite abnormal.
As a result, the expressions of Xiao Li’s parents and their accomplices turned pale, with none daring to make a move.
The way they looked at the man was as if they were looking at a monster.
"Hey, Beichen." The girl in the white dress reached out from above and patted the boy whose head was a little shorter than hers, "Didn’t I promise to help arrange your marriage? To help you find a bride?"
After she spoke, my upper teeth unconsciously bit into my lower lip.
Unknowingly, a sweet and metallic taste spread in my mouth, this person’s memory seemed overly confused, actually mixing up memories of Yu Longting to say that she’d help Beichen with matchmaking...
Knowing Beichen’s personality, he would definitely feel insulted by both her and Yu Longting, and would certainly come to blows.
After a brief silence, Beichen slightly parted his lips, "You promised."
The situation veered opposite to my judgment, making me feel increasingly that things were perplexing.
With Beichen answering like that, wasn’t that indirectly acknowledging Human Snake Man as Yu Longting’s identity, was he... did the man’s aura too similar to that of Yu Longting’s, causing confusion?
"Oh, good! It’s time to fulfill that promise then." The man’s lips curled in a smile, alluring enough to captivate the world.
Like a king doing as he pleased, mastering life and death over everything in the world.
Xiao Li’s mom pursed her lips, asking in bafflement, "What exactly... are you doing?"
"Let me introduce myself, I’m Beichen’s guardian, I raised this child." The man’s eyes swept over the five rural people holding Xiao Li like caught pigs.
As if possessed, they froze and fell to the ground.
Xiao Li freed herself in an instant, and rushed into Beichen’s arms tearfully, "Brother Chenn!! I won’t marry anyone else, I’ll marry only you."
"Alright, you will only marry me, don’t worry." Beichen gently stroked Xiao Li’s smooth ponytail, calming her deeply.
In the blink of an eye, the man’s figure reappeared sitting at an empty dining table, "Today, I’m here to propose for Beichen, you both, as in-laws, sit down."
Is this happening for real??
I stood there, feeling exceptionally bewildered, watching that person sit elegantly yet languidly, as if in a dream.
Xiao Li’s parents, witnessing their people with pupils dilated monumental enough to fall to the ground, were even more shocked than I was.
Their mouths gaping open, almost dislocating their jawbones.
"Are you sitting? Or do you want to face consequences for refusing a drink?" The man smacked the table forcefully, creating a long crack on its surface.
