Chapter 125 I Won't Lose To Anyone!

  "Nangong Zixuan said, 'Sister-in-law, where are you living? I'll come visit you in a bit!'"

  Zhuang Shaofen turned to look at Nangong Chengfeng, then smiled and shook her head, "We'll be leaving soon, you and Dasheng can play slowly, have more fun."

  "What? You're leaving?" Nan Gong Zi Xuan was taken aback.

  Nangong Chengfeng smiled sarcastically and said, "Just now you still wanted to hide from us, why can't bear to part with us now?"

  "What's wrong?" Nan Gong Zi Xuan's face turned red.

  "Alright, we still have things to do, I'll take my leave first!" Nangong Chengfeng chuckled and turned to face Chen Dasheng, giving him a signal with his eyes. "Dasheng, when you're free, come visit me in the capital. My little sister is quite mischievous, so please take care of her."

  "Definitely, definitely!" Chen Dabai nodded and turned his head to glance at Nangong Zixuan, who was being very mischievous.

  Zhuang Shaofen pulled Nan Gong Zixuan, and it was unknown what she instructed Nan Gong Zixuan to do. Afterwards, she linked arms with Nan Gong Chengfeng and waved goodbye to Chen Dasheng. Meanwhile, Zhuang Shaoxian stood on the side without speaking, looking at Nan Gong Zixuan with a hesitant expression, then glanced at Chen Dasheng before following Zhuang Shaofen and leaving together.

  ——

  "What a surprise! You can run into familiar faces anywhere. The world is indeed small!" Chen Dajun said as he watched the three of them leave.

  Nangong Zixuan turned her head and glanced at Chen Dasheng, but didn't say much. Liu Xiaomin stepped forward and grasped Nangong Zixuan's arm, urging, "Let's go, it's so cold outside, let's hurry up and soak in the hot spring!"

  Chen Dashi originally had some questions to ask, but after being interrupted by Liu Xiaomin like this, it was not good to ask again.

  The three of them seemed to be preoccupied with their own thoughts as they walked into a nearby wooden hut together.

  ——

  "What's wrong? You look so worried?" Nangong Chengfeng and Zhuang Shaofen were walking hand in hand, chatting and laughing, but they hadn't heard a word from Zhuang Shaoxian who was following behind them. When they turned around to look at him, they saw that he had his head down and looked distracted. Nangong Chengfeng couldn't help but ask curiously.

  Zhuang Shaoxian came back to his senses, lifted his head and shook it at Nangong Chengfeng, saying "Nothing!"

  "What's wrong?" Zhuang Shaofen looked at her and couldn't help but shake his head, "Alas, to ask what love is in this world, it's enough to make one willing to die for it!"

  "Sister!" The words seemed to have a profound meaning, as if they had touched something in Zhuang Shaoxian's heart, and he immediately interrupted Zhuang Shaofen's words.

  Nangong Chengfeng turned his face with a strange expression and looked at Zhuang Shaoyan, saying, "Shaoyan, we people, although on the surface it seems glorious, but the bitterness inside can only be known by ourselves. Having the power that others admire, what's lost is freedom. Brother-in-law knows you have feelings for Zixuan, however, we are all born for the benefit of our families, and Zixuan is the same, having no control over her own body. This kind of love, it's better to bury it in your heart!"

  Zhuang Shaoshan's face changed color, and after a long time, he said, "Brother-in-law, what you said, I can understand clearly, including the year you and my sister got together, it was just to consolidate the relationship between our two families. However, letting Zixuan marry a rustic young man, I really feel heartbroken!"

  As soon as Nangong Chengfeng heard Zhuang Shaoyan mention his and Zhuang Shaofen's matter, he exchanged a glance with Zhuang Shaofen, their faces slightly awkward. However, after hearing the second half of Zhuang Shaoyan's sentence, Nangong Chengfeng shook his head repeatedly, "Shaoyan, this marriage was personally arranged by my grandfather. You know my grandfather's temper, once he says something, no one in this world can change his mind except for grandma. I heard from Eldest Uncle that Grandfather not only owes the Chen family a favor but also values the potential and talent of the Chen siblings."

  Zhuang Shaoxian's face suddenly turned ugly as he clenched his fists, "Brother-in-law, the Chen siblings have talent, I'm not far behind. Give me time and I'll definitely become a top-notch martial artist!"

  "I know that with your talent, you are already among the best in our several major families. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Chen siblings, perhaps our two families might have even become related by marriage. Unfortunately..." Nangong Chengfeng shook his head and patted Zhuang Shaoyan's shoulder, advising him, "Shaoyan, there are beautiful flowers everywhere in the world, don't be overly fixated on one person. With your abilities, there are many good girls out there!"

  Zhuang Shaoshan took a deep breath, "Brother-in-law, don't say anymore. Just now I saw that Chen Dasheng, he's only a third-level martial artist, and his innate talent isn't particularly strong either. I will use my strength to prove to Grandfather Mu how wrong his choice was!"

  Nangong Chengfeng felt a sense of helplessness, and upon hearing this, he simply shook his head. He wanted to say something, but the words reached the tip of his tongue and were swallowed back down. He knew his younger brother-in-law's temperament - although his character was not bad, he was too arrogant and never willing to submit to others.

  At the age of twenty-one, he had already reached the seventh level of martial arts, and was one of the best among the younger generation of several major families in the capital. Perhaps it was also because of this sense of superiority from an early age that Zhuang Shaoyan developed a naturally arrogant temperament.

  Chen Daxing was just a small third-class martial artist, but he was valued so much by the Nan Gong family that they were willing to marry off their young daughter to him. This indeed made Zhuang Shaoyan feel very unacceptable, as his sense of superiority since childhood made him feel that his self-esteem had been challenged. If possible, he really wanted to find Chen Daxing and have a match with him to determine who was superior.

  Zhuang Shaoshan's mindset at this time was like that of a primary school student who had always been the first in every exam, but suddenly found himself surpassed by an unknown student and only got second place, with a huge psychological gap.

  Nan Gong Chengfeng turned his head to look at Zhuang Shaofen, with some words on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't say them out loud. He wouldn't tell Nan Gong that the information came from Nan Gong Mu. Chen Dasheng's strength was only that of a second-level martial artist, yet now, after not much time had passed, he had already become a third-level martial artist. This kind of cultivation speed could be considered monstrous.

  Zhuang Shaofen reached out and grasped Zhuang Shaoxian's arm, "Shaoxian, sister is supporting you, use your strength to prove it to everyone, sister believes that only you are the best, what Dasheng, Bajie, all of them can step aside for us!"

  Zhuang Shaoxian heard this, as if his blood was stirred up, and he nodded fiercely, "Sister, rest assured, I, Zhuang Shaoxian, will not lose to anyone. I didn't in the past, and I won't in the future either!"

  Looking at the siblings, Nangong Chengfeng shook his head with some helplessness. Deep down, he actually hoped that Nangong Zixuan and Zhuang Shaoyan could become a couple. This was also something that the elderly members of both families had been delighted to see before. Zhuang Shaoyan's martial arts talent was excellent, and the union between the two families would have brought them even closer together. However, all of this had been disrupted by Chen Daxing's appearance.

  "Alright, don't forget we still have a mission, and we've already soaked in the hot springs. Let's head back to the hotel to gather our things, and then we'll set off up the mountain right away!" said Nangong Chengfeng.

  The siblings nodded and left the hot spring pool with a worried look on their faces.

  ——

  Soaking in hot springs, many people would choose to do so outdoors, so they can enjoy the pleasure of soaking in hot springs amidst icy skies and snowy lands. However, women like Nan Gong Zi Xuan and Liu Xiao Min, who were born into nobility, had an instinctive aversion to communal bathing with a large crowd of people, like dumplings being cooked together.

  A single-room hot spring hut with a relatively high price, but the equipment is complete, at least there is a place to change clothes.

  Nangong Zixuan and Liu Xiaomin came out of the dressing room, Chen Dasheng suddenly had some hot blood boiling, Nangong Zixuan was wearing a pink swimsuit, with three points of cuteness in her youthful beauty.

  Watching Liu Xiaomin, Chen Dajie felt like vomiting blood, a standard bikini three-point style, compared to Nangong Zixuan, it had several more points of human beauty.

  White flowers on her arms, white flowers on her legs, dizzying Chen Dashi's eyes, one plump and mature, the other pure and beautiful, watching the two women walking towards him, Chen Dashi couldn't help but feel a cat-scratching-like sensation in his heart.

  "Chen, how is it? Is it pretty?" Looking at Chen Dasheng's fiery eyes, Liu Xiaomin didn't feel shy, but instead turned around in front of Chen Dasheng and giggled.

  Damn it, so red!

  Chen Daxing had thought about Liu Xiaomin's true identity many times in his mind, but today he finally saw the true face of Lushan, and it was completely unexpected that it would be even more fiery than what he had imagined.
