Chapter 1873 - 1959: Finding New Love
"I’m also here to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament, and oh, having a boyfriend already? How long have you been apart before finding another one!"
"Cough, cough..."
Su Xuan felt a bit awkward. When it came to Cheng Jiahui, Su Xuan really didn’t know what to say. This girl was always so frivolous in her speech, acting as if she was quite familiar with him when in fact, they weren’t that close.
"Hey, Cheng Jiahui, I don’t think we’re that familiar with each other yet. Besides, I’ve known Tianyi for two years!"
"Wow, you really don’t know how to talk to women, do you? Can’t you be less serious when talking to a girl?"
Cheng Jiahui nonchalantly hung onto Su Xuan’s arm, acting like they were very close. Su Xuan could only shake his head, thinking thank goodness Luo Tianyi isn’t the jealous type, or today would have turned awkward real fast.
"Su Xuan, who is this?"
Looking at Cheng Jiahui, Luo Tianyi was also a bit curious. Could this woman be another of Su Xuan’s girls? But she really didn’t seem like it!
"Let me introduce you, this is Cheng Jiahui, a Disciple of the Five Elements Sect!"
Su Xuan said with a smile. He had a pretty good impression of Cheng Jiahui because she had saved him in the past.
"I’m also his girlfriend, he promised to be my boyfriend!"
Cheng Jiahui said unabashedly, causing Su Xuan to roll his eyes, thinking that she never changes her story.
"Oh, come on, Cheng Jiahui. You’re making me embarrassed!"
Su Xuan rubbed his nose, feeling a bit awkward, thinking that he never said he would be her boyfriend!
"Hmph, you still want to deny it, huh? Don’t deceive me; a good man doesn’t become a heartbreaker!"
Cheng Jiahui said with a mischievous smile, leaving Su Xuan speechless. This girl really knew how to talk, and he had no idea how to respond.
"Alright, what do you want from me? I surrender!"
Su Xuan was helpless. This girl was once able to lead him by the nose, so if she came to him now, there must be a reason. Su Xuan was sure that if Cheng Jiahui sought him out, there had to be a purpose, probably wanting him to help solve something!
"Stop right there..."
At this moment, a few people dashed in, and Su Xuan felt a bit awkward, thinking this was exactly what he suspected. A moment ago, he thought that if this girl was looking for him, it couldn’t be a good thing, and it turned out to be exactly that—she wanted him to handle some issues.
"You didn’t go scamming people for money again, did you?"
Su Xuan weakly asked, still feeling a little helpless because this girl didn’t seem to stop causing trouble!
"I... I swear I didn’t scam anyone this time!"
Cheng Jiahui raised her hand, then said earnestly.
"You might not have scammed for money, but you sure did for love!"
"Pffft!"
Su Xuan spat out some wine, looking at Cheng Jiahui.
"Cheng Jiahui, what’s going on with you?"
Su Xuan was really speechless with Cheng Jiahui. This girl was truly unique—this time, she even scammed for love. It was impressive, but just who was the handsome guy she tricked!
"Don’t listen to their nonsense. I’m a little fairy, and they were trying to take advantage of me. They’re the ones making false accusations, you know!"
Cheng Jiahui quickly hid behind Su Xuan, posing as the victim, urging him not to believe their lies!
Su Xuan rolled his eyes, guessing that this little girl was indeed being misleading again. With her tricks, she had fooled even him before, let alone someone else. Cheng Jiahui had a reputation for this sort of thing—incredible acting skills!
"You are unbelievably shameless! You said that if I brought you up here, you’d be my wife. I... I don’t care, you must fulfill your promise, or you’re deceiving a pure-hearted youth like me!"
The speaker was an incredibly ugly man, and calling him ugly was an understatement. One eye was big, the other small; he was bald and his teeth jutted out—it was clear he didn’t brush his teeth, as they were yellow.
"Wow, you have quite the unique taste!"
Su Xuan grinned mischievously as he glanced at Cheng Jiahui, unable to suppress a laugh. However, he knew that she likely said such things to infiltrate Cloud Sky Peak.
To enter Cloud Sky Peak, there were only two ways: being brought up by someone from a Sect, like how Su Xuan came with the Tianyi Castle folks; or by buying a ticket, which could cost anywhere from eight thousand to tens of thousands.
Cheng Jiahui was broke, so naturally, she couldn’t afford a ticket and had to rely on trickery!
"Stop laughing and help me out, or he might really take me as his bride!"
Cheng Jiahui glared at Su Xuan. It was indeed, as Su Xuan guessed, that Cheng Jiahui wanted to get into Cloud Sky Peak but couldn’t due to its restrictions, leaving her with only two options!
Obvious enough, Cheng Jiahui had to resort to tricking someone into getting her in, so she targeted this Jade-faced Sect. It was as if fate had mocked them because despite sounding like a good-looking Sect, everyone in the Jade-faced Sect was hideous, not one looked normal.
Yet, they were all incredibly vain, thinking they were the world’s most handsome. So, Cheng Jiahui set her sights on the Jade-faced Sect, where a man named Pan Shengan from the Ming Sect talked as if he was as handsome as the legendary Pan An.
Cheng Jiahui used her charms on Pan Shengan, gaining access to Cloud Sky Peak. Of course, she never intended to marry the guy; as soon as she got up, she looked for a way to hide. But who would’ve thought that Pan Shengan and his crew would cling to her like glue, giving her no chance to escape. Stuck with them, the ever-cunning Cheng Jiahui ended up encountering Su Xuan, much to her excitement!
"Uh... Brother Pan Shengan, there might be a misunderstanding here; she’s actually my wife!"
Su Xuan had no choice, as he understood this girl was a crafty little thing. Her sudden appearance here showed she had a purpose, though unknown to him. But given he had run into this situation, he had to help, remembering that without her, he would’ve been left in pieces long ago!
