C367 Propose Marriage
At this moment, countless cold gazes fell upon Ye Feng and Nangong Yu. When they saw Lu Yao acting so friendly in front of the two of them, their gazes became even colder.
"What virtues and abilities do these two have to be able to receive Miss Lu Yao's favor? They deserve to die!"
A young man from a big family in the Qingzhou City coldly spoke. With Lu Yao's influence in the Qingzhou City, who wouldn't want to get close to her?
"Didn't you see? That person seemed to be Miss Lu Yao's Senior Brother. The two of them seemed to be very close. It seems like Miss Lu Yao has always been interested in her Senior Brother. That's why she doesn't care about us young disciples, the Qingzhou City. "
A young man's eyes revealed a cold light. He raised his hand and pointed at Nangong Yu, who was not far away, and said. Immediately, many people's eyes fell upon Nangong Yu. The corner of their mouths couldn't help but curve into a mocking smile.
"Him? I really doubt Miss Lu Yao's judgment. If I'm not wrong, this person hasn't even reached the True Martial Stage yet. A Qi Condensation Stage trash is worthy of Miss Lu Yao's favor. This is simply a joke! "
Someone said sarcastically. They were all people from the major families in Qingzhou City, Young Genius. The lowest cultivation base among them was at the Qi Condensation Peak Stage. Naturally, they didn't put Nangong Yu, who had just stepped into the Qi Condensation level 9, in their eyes.
The discussions of these people inevitably fell into Nangong Yu's ears, causing his expression to become slightly ugly.
However, since he was here, he was prepared to be mocked and looked down upon.
He looked at Lu Yao who was opposite him and said, "Junior Sister, while Uncle Lu is celebrating his birthday, I will propose marriage to Uncle Lu and ask him to betroth you to me."
Nangong Yu's eyes were firm and his voice was formal.
"Yes!"
After hearing Nangong Yu's words, Lu Yao's face turned red. She had the intention of marrying Nangong Yu, but due to various kinds of pressure, she had never formally mentioned it to her father.
"little sister, this person is your Senior Brother?"
At this moment, Lu Wan, Qian Hong, and Lu Chao walked towards Ye Feng and the other two.
Lu Wan looked at Nangong Yu and asked Lu Yao. Her eyes were filled with pride.
"Yes."
Lu Yao nodded at Lu Wan and then looked at Nangong Yu and Ye Feng. "Senior Brother, Ye Feng, these two are my elder sister Lu Wan, brother-in-law Qian Hong, and my cousin Lu Chao."
"Elder sister, brother-in-law, cousin, these two are my Nangong Yu and his best friend, Ye Feng."
Lu Yao briefly introduced them. Ye Feng and Nangong Yu greeted Lu Wan, Qian Hong, and Lu Chao respectively.
Lu Wan responded faintly, her expression carrying disdain and pride. From her expression, it could be seen that Lu Wan did not put Ye Feng and Nangong Yu in her eyes at all.
Qian Hong and Lu Chao did not even look at Ye Feng and Nangong Yu, especially Qian Hong, who was the son of Qingzhou City Lord. How could anyone have the right to speak to him?
"You're not even at the True Martial Stage. I'm really curious how you made me, little sister, fall in love with you."
Lu Wan kept looking at Nangong Yu with disdain. She looked at Lu Yao and said, "little sister, in my opinion, your Senior Brother is just so-so. He is not worth it for you to treat him like this."
After hearing Lu Wan's words, Nangong Yu's expression changed slightly. This scene was what he had expected before.
Lu Wan was Lu Yao's biological older sister. Even if Nangong Yu was unhappy in his heart, he could not say anything.
Lu Yao frowned slightly and looked at Nangong Yu with an apologetic expression. Then, she looked at Lu Wan and said, "Perhaps in your eyes, Senior Brother is not outstanding, but I believe that one day, Senior Brother will rely on his own efforts to achieve something."
Lu Yao was kind. She had never disliked Nangong Yu because of his background and talent. Instead, she always helped him.
Perhaps, in Lu Yao's eyes, Nangong Yu was the best. No one could replace him in Lu Yao's heart.
"He is just a man of the Qi Condensation. How hard is he working and what kind of achievements can he achieve?"
Lu Wan sneered and said, "little sister. I think you should stop thinking about dating this person! Father will not allow you to date such a useless person. Why don't you find a family that is equal to my Lu Family Sect and marry them? Even if you can't meet an outstanding Men like your brother-in-law, it's still better than following him. "
Lu Wan's words could be said to be impolite, as she said that Nangong Yu was worthless.
"That's right, little sister. Given brother-in-law's prestige in Tai You Nine Counties, I can introduce any kind of outstanding genius to you. Any one of them can't be compared to this person. Little sister, why do you need to be single in love with a flower?"
Lu Chao, who was standing at the side, chimed in as well. He looked at Ye Feng and little sister as if he was looking at an ant.
"Stop it!"
Seeing Lu Wan and Lu Chao's words getting more and more excessive, Lu Yao's pretty face instantly turned cold. She said to Lu Wan and Lu Chao, "Whoever marries me is my personal freedom. You have no right to interfere. I will not allow you to insult me, Senior Brother, like this."
Lu Yao's words were firm, and the beautiful pupillae released a sharp luster.
Others might say that she could, but repeatedly humiliating her, Senior Brother Nangong Yu, was equivalent to touching Lu Yao's bottom line.
"Hur hur!"
Seeing that Lu Yao's words were not polite, a cold smile immediately appeared on Lu Wan's face and she said, "The two of you haven't done anything yet, and you are already starting to take advantage of others? This is really disappointing!"
The commotion here immediately attracted the attention of many people and they all looked over. When they realized that the two sides of the argument were actually the host, the Lu Family sisters, an interesting expression immediately appeared on their faces.
"Wan Er, don't be angry. Little sister is still young. I believe that in the near future, she will understand your painstaking efforts towards her."
Seeing Lu Wan getting angry, Qian Hong immediately stepped forward and said. His expression was filled with arrogance.
"En."
Lu Wan nodded at Qian Hong and then looked at Lu Yao and said, "Did you see that? Not only is your brother-in-law powerful, but his status is also very respected. Compared to your brother-in-law, you, Senior Brother, are like heaven and earth. Since... What I said, you won't listen to me at all. Then, from now on, you will do well! "
After saying that, Lu Yao grabbed Qian Hong's arm and left.
"Senior Brother, don't mind. Sister is a straightforward person."
After Lu Wan and the other two left, Lu Yao turned her head to look at Nangong Yu and said with an apologetic smile.
"It's nothing."
Nangong Yu nodded to Lu Yao. Before this, the two of them had already made sufficient mental preparations to oppose the people from the Lu Family.
Hence, Nangong Yu and Lu Yao treated the incident as a small interlude and did not pay much attention to it.
Ye Feng had been listening from the side. His impression of Lu Wan, Lu Chao, and Qian Hong was extremely bad.
"With these three people interfering, I'm afraid it won't be easy for Nangong Yu to successfully propose a marriage."
Ye Feng thought to himself. The attitude of the people of Lu Family towards Nangong Yu was even worse than he had imagined.
Very soon, Patriarch of Lu Family Lu Dong arrived. As the main character of today's event, Lu Dong's face was full of smiles, and he seemed to be in high spirits. He had the demeanor of a master of a family.
As Ye Feng and Nangong Yu were guests, they were actually arranged to sit in the most inconspicuous place. To Ye Feng, this was nothing.
In the following period of time, all the experts present had arrived, and the banquet officially began.
Ye Feng and Nangong Yu were still in that inconspicuous place. It seemed a little awkward.
Finally, at a certain moment, Nangong Yu mustered up his courage and slowly got up from his seat. He said to Patriarch of Lu Family Lu Dong, who was sitting in the main seat, "Senior Lu's sixtieth birthday is worth celebrating. On such an important occasion, I have something to tell Senior Lu. I wonder if Senior Lu would like to give me a chance to tell him?"
Seeing Nangong Yu stand up and speak, Lu Dong raised his eyebrows slightly. He was not a fool. He already knew the relationship between Nangong Yu and his daughter Lu Yao.
Although Lu Dong also did not think highly of Nangong Yu, he also wanted to know what Nangong Yu suddenly stood up and wanted to say. So he heard Lu Dong spit out a word, "Speak!"
Many people's eyes fell upon Nangong Yu. They all wanted to know what this young man who wasn't even at the True Martial Stage had to say.
Nangong Yu took a deep breath and swept his gaze across Lu Yao. Immediately, he felt some motivation. He said to Lu Dong, who was sitting on the main seat, "Junior Sister and Lu Yao have fallen in love with each other. We are willing to be in cahoots. Taking advantage of today's opportunity, I am proposing to Senior Lu. I hope that Senior Lu can fulfill my wish and betroth Lu Yao and Junior Sister to me. Let the two of us live together from now on."
Nangong Yu's words were firm and contained his feelings for Lu Yao. His words were mixed with sincerity.
However, once these words were spoken, most of the people present were stunned. They did not expect Nangong Yu to propose marriage to Lu Dong in front of everyone.
Lu Dong was also stunned. His eyes narrowed slightly. His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through Nangong Yu's body. He said, "What is your background? What level is your cultivation base at now?"
"Junior is from the Youzhou City Nangong family. He has just stepped into the Qi Condensation level 9."
Nangong Yu cupped his fists at Lu Dong and said. At this point, Nangong Yu was no longer nervous, and his tone was neither servile nor overbearing.
"So this man came from Youzhou. No wonder his cultivation base is low and he doesn't understand the rules!"
"That's right. The Youzhou City is so remote. What kind of genius can it produce?"
Hearing Nangong Yu say that he came from the remote Youzhou of Tai You Nine Counties, a look of disdain appeared on the faces of the people present as they discussed animatedly below.
"Youzhou City, Nangong family? Ninth level of the Qi Condensation?"
After listening to Nangong Yu's reply, a carefree smile emerged on Lu Dong's face, and he said: "Do you think that with your status and strength, you can propose marriage to me, the Lu Family?"
