"Ah Cheng..." Xu Siya looked into Qin Hao's clear eyes, feeling as if something was blocking her heart. She spoke softly, her voice a bit hoarse:
"I want to be alone for a while."
Qin Hao was somewhat baffled. She had been perfectly fine just a moment ago, enthusiastically wanting to examine my physique. Why did she suddenly look like a frostbitten eggplant?
"Alright, let me know if you need anything."
Xu Siya's current demeanor genuinely scared Qin Hao. What exactly was going on? Could something really be wrong with my body?
This girl didn't even give a straight answer, really making a person panic.
After parting ways with Qin Hao, Xu Siya walked aimlessly. Unknowingly, she arrived at the lakeside of Northern Profound City. She stood by the lake, looking at her reflection in the water, her eyes red.
"How could this be? How could Ah Cheng's background be so terrifying?"
The son of an Immortal Emperor. What kind of concept was that? That was an existence standing at the very pinnacle of the Three Realms and Nine Heavens.
In contrast, she was nothing more than the niece of a minor city lord. The gap between her and Qin Hao spanned the entirety of the Three Realms and Nine Heavens.
"If he recovers his memories, he will definitely return to his own life, back to his own circle."
Xu Siya muttered to herself. In her eyes, only those imperial princesses and holy maidens belonged to the same world as Qin Hao. As for herself, she was merely a passing traveler during his period of amnesia.
Xu Siya squatted down and buried her face in her knees.
"Siya, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
Footsteps approached; it was Xu Siya's father. Seeing Xu Siya in this state, Xu Guang could not help but frown:
"Was it that beggar from who knows where that bullied you? I told you long ago not to have too much contact with people of unknown origins. Daring to bully my daughter, I'll go teach him a lesson right now."
Hearing this, Xu Siya hastily stopped him. "Father, Ah Cheng didn't bully me. I just have some things on my mind."
Looking at her father, Xu Siya could not help but sigh inwardly:
Oh Father, you even want to teach him a lesson. Do you know what kind of existence Ah Cheng's father is? That is an Immortal Emperor!
"Really?" Xu Guang looked at Xu Siya's reddened eyes, still somewhat disbelieving her words.
However, since Xu Siya said so, he did not press the matter further. Xu Guang carefully considered his wording and slowly spoke:
"Siya, do you remember Uncle Li Yuan? My old friend. He even held you when you were little."
Xu Siya nodded. "Of course I remember. Uncle Li Yuan used to be the Vice City Lord of our Northern Profound City. How could I forget? But Father, why are you suddenly bringing him up?"
Xu Guang chuckled lightly and explained, "He visited our manor today. That fellow Li Yuan is truly riding his son's coattails to success now. Four years ago, his son Li Mu passed the Xuantian Holy Land's assessment and became an outer disciple there."
"You should still have some impression of Li Mu, right? He used to play with you all the time when you were kids."
Xu Siya nodded. "I remember. What exactly is the matter? Does it concern me?"
Regarding the purpose of Xu Guang seeking her out, Xu Siya faintly had some guesses in her heart.
Sure enough, Xu Guang's next words confirmed her suspicions.
"Of course, it's a great and joyous event. Even I didn't expect that the kid Li Mu, who has been away from Northern Profound City for nearly ten years and joined a transcendent faction like the Xuantian Holy Land, would still be so devoted to you."
"He asked your Uncle Li Yuan to find me, hoping to propose a marriage arrangement between the two of you. I agreed. Now, come with me to see Uncle Li Yuan and finalize the specific details."
Hearing that Xu Guang had agreed, Xu Siya's expression instantly changed:
"Father, what have you done? You agreed?" Xu Siya abruptly stood up, her voice raising a few pitches:
"How could you agree to such a thing on your own without my consent?"
Before Xu Siya could finish, Xu Guang interrupted her. "Why couldn't I? We know everything about that child Li Mu. He has been sensible since childhood, and now he has become highly successful by joining the Xuantian Holy Land."
"What kind of place is the Xuantian Holy Land? That is a transcendent faction overseen by an Immortal King. Do you know how difficult it is to enter? For every prodigy qualified to join, I dare not guarantee anything else, but they can easily walk unhindered throughout our Dique Heaven in the future."
"Siya, Father is doing this for your own good. Look, that child Li Mu has a boundless future and is completely devoted to you. He is a good match, which is why I took the liberty to agree to this marriage."
"Siya, you must remember, this marriage isn't them climbing the social ladder to reach us; it's us climbing to reach him. Other than Li Mu, where else are you going to find someone better?"
Xu Guang's words plunged Xu Siya into silence. Qin Hao's face surfaced in her mind. She actually did have a better choice.
It was just that this choice was entirely too good, so much so that Xu Siya didn't even dare to choose it.
Seeing Xu Siya remain silent, Xu Guang stared at her, his gaze burning like a torch:
"Why aren't you speaking? Don't tell me you've fallen for that beggar you picked up?"
Xu Siya stayed silent, and her silence was the best answer.
Xu Guang's expression instantly darkened:
"Are you telling me that for the sake of a beggar, you are going to give up Li Mu, a peerless prodigy who joined the Xuantian Holy Land? Siya, can you please wake up and be clear-headed?"
"Yes, I admit that kid looks decent and has a face that girls would like, but how much do you really know about him? You don't even know his real name! Aside from knowing he's a beggar, what else do you know about him?"
Xu Siya did not speak. She truly did not know Qin Hao's real name; the name Ah Cheng was one she had given him.
Xu Guang sneered:
"I really don't know what kind of magic potion that beggar fed you. Fine, since that's the case, I have no choice but to use some forceful measures. I will make him completely disappear from your world and see if you still keep thinking about him!"
Having said that, Xu Guang turned around, ready to head back to the City Lord's Manor. He completely looked as if he was about to make a move against Qin Hao.
Seeing this, Xu Siya hastily stepped forward and grabbed Xu Guang's hand to stop him from doing anything foolish.
"Ah Cheng is not a beggar! Father, do you know how terrifying Ah Cheng's background is?"
Hearing these words, Xu Guang could not help but scoff:
"Background? Heh, then tell me, what kind of terrifying background does this beggar have? I simply refuse to believe it. No matter how strong his background is, could it be stronger than Li Mu, who has the Xuantian Holy Land backing him?"
Seeing that her father completely disregarded Qin Hao, his face full of mockery and sarcasm, Xu Siya instantly grew anxious:
"Father! The one who needs to wake up is you. Do you know what kind of existence Ah Cheng's father is? That is an Immortal Emperor!"
