Early the next morning, Yaohua hung two huge dark circles under her eyes and was in a foul mood.
Lu Ran happened to bring in the porridge he had cooked for her. When he saw her, he could not help but wonder, “Little Princess, what on earth are you doing?”
Yaohua was so embarrassed that her face flushed, “My senior brother said that he wants to hold our wedding in advance.”
“What?” Lu Ran was startled and the bowl of porridge in his hand fell to the ground, “He actually took advantage of your memory loss to trick you into marrying him? Then what about our Celestial Lord?”
Qing Que walked over slowly. When he heard this, he gave Lu Ran a cold look, “The engagement between me and my junior sister was decided when we were children. What right do you have to interfere?”
After saying this, he conjured up a large, red-golden contract.
And on the contract, there was clearly Yaohua's signature.
Although Lu Ran was only a small celestial official, he had some insight and could naturally see the mystery of this contract. He could not help but exclaim in shock, “This, this is the long-lost Heavenly Marriage Contract?!”
“What is the Heavenly Marriage Contract?” Yaohua asked in confusion, “Senior brother said that this is our engagement letter.”
When she had just woken up, her senior brother had asked her to sign her name because it was their master's last wish.
Lu Ran said painfully, “He is so despicable! If lovers sign their names on the Heavenly Marriage Contract, it means that this marriage is protected by the Heavenly Path. Later, because there were too many people who used this kind of marriage contract to deceive others, the method of making the Heavenly Marriage Contract was gradually lost. Who would have thought...”
He stared at the marriage contract firmly, wishing he could tear it into pieces.
Qing Que was very happy to show off, “The Heavenly Marriage Contract has been established. What is wrong with us holding our wedding in advance?”
Yaohua shook her head like a rattle, “No, senior brother. Let's hold our wedding after I regain my memory.”
Qing Que asked dejectedly, “Why? Does junior sister not like me?”
Lu Ran looked at the scene in front of him and only felt it was very absurd. He muttered in a daze, “Crazy, everyone is crazy! I need to go out and calm down for a while.”
Half a quarter of an hour later, Yaohua finally managed to persuade her senior brother to leave. She buried her entire body in the quilt and did not want to move.
Sigh...
She did not know why, but when she thought of marrying her senior brother, she felt strange. It was as if the position of her fiancé should be taken by someone else.
She covered her heart and felt a little confused.
Lu Ran pushed the door open and entered. He then carefully closed the door, “Little Princess, why don't we secretly leave behind your senior brother?”
“This is not possible.” Yaohua quickly said.
Lu Ran was worried, “But your senior brother is forcing you to marry so anxiously. There must be something strange about this. Why don't you go with me to the Celestial Realm to relax, or we can go and relieve the victims of the disaster together?”
Yaohua hesitated.
She really did not want to face her senior brother's forced marriage anymore.
“My junior sister will not go with you.” Qing Que's voice sounded outside the door. Then he walked into the room. His eyes were filled with coldness, “What is your purpose for trying to abduct my junior sister out of the valley?”
Lu Ran smelled a very dangerous aura from him and could not help but say, “Of course it is because Yaohua has already fallen in love with our Celestial Lord and cannot marry you anymore!”
Previously, in order to lurk in this valley and gain Yaohua's trust, he had been pretending to be stupid and endured not to confront Qing Que.
Now he was not afraid of falling out with him and directly said, “In my opinion, it is you who lusted after Yaohua's beauty and secretly abducted her. Now you actually want to turn things around and blame others?”
Qing Que snorted coldly, “Nonsense! No matter how you try to defend yourself, you cannot change the fact that you are a spy. I will never let you put my junior sister in danger.”
After saying this, he was about to kill Lu Ran.
“Senior brother, don't!” Yaohua quickly blocked in front of Lu Ran.
Qing Que's expression became subtle and it was also mixed with a little jealousy, “Junior sister, you are my fiancée, but now you are blocking in front of another man. Could it be that your heart has been coaxed away by others?”
“How is that possible?” Yaohua quickly defended herself, “I just think that Lu Ran has not done anything bad, so I—”
“This reason is not valid.” Qing Que said firmly, “What if he does something bad and endangers your safety or even the entire sect? Have you thought about it?”
He slowed down his voice, “Junior sister, if you lack a playmate, I can catch another one for you or buy one. But you cannot let a spy stay in our valley, especially when you have lost your memory. Do you understand?”
Yaohua was in a dilemma.
On one hand, there was the embarrassment of having to clarify things with her senior brother soon. On the other hand, there was the fear that her friend might be killed.
The balance in her heart slowly tilted. Finally, she bit her lips and trotted over to kiss Qing Que on the side of his face.
Qing Que's hand trembled slightly. The eyes that were originally filled with hostility suddenly melted into a pool of spring water. He lowered his eyes and looked at Yaohua, “Do you want to curry favor with me and make me spare him?”
Yaohua said in a low voice, “Although I have lost my memory, I will not leave senior brother casually. So senior brother does not need to worry. In the future, I will also watch him well and will never cause trouble for senior brother.”
She endured the discomfort in her heart and grabbed his sleeve. She pleaded, “Senior brother, please spare his life, okay?”
“He may not deserve to die, but he will definitely be punished.” Qing Que could not help but hook the corner of his lips. Previously, he had always pretended to be a little sister and interacted with Yaohua. He was weak and relied on her. But now he had become her fiancé. The feeling of being pampered was really wonderful.
He coughed lightly, “Then lock him up.”
“Senior brother, I still want to go out and play.” Yaohua saw that his attitude had softened and gently tugged on his corner of his clothes, “Will you take me out with you, okay?”
Qing Que was still feeling dizzy from the kiss just now. He took her little hand along, “Let's go.”
Yaohua cast a spell and locked Lu Ran and herself tightly together.
Qing Que stared at the chain and his eyes were deep.
The system said coolly, “Host, if you want to let Lu Ran go when you go out to play, do not get too close to him. Otherwise, your senior brother will be jealous.”
Qing Que looked at Yaohua and hesitated to speak.
Yaohua's heart skipped a beat. She cast a spell again and locked him and herself together.
Qing Que frowned, “Junior sister, what are you doing?”
Yaohua shook the red string on her wrist, “I will not tell you.”
The red string has always been a symbol of the bond between a man and a woman. Qing Que was about to remove it, but when he thought of this meaning, his expression softened, “Even if you do not tell me, I know.”
Outside the valley, gongs and drums were ringing and paper money was flying everywhere.
The Lord of Xunyang City led a group of people and bowed repeatedly, “Thank you, Immortal, for helping us and protecting the safety of our city!”
Yaohua was slightly surprised, “Did we not secretly send things there last time? Why do all these people know about it?”
Qing Que turned his head and looked at her. His eyes were gentle, “Maybe the Heavens felt your kind heart and so they let them know.”
His junior sister was kind, but he was not someone who did not expect anything in return for his efforts. Therefore, he had done something to those things.
