214. Chapter 214 Qianxunji: Want to leave? Not happening.

Qianxunji saw Zhu Zhuqing ponder for a minute, then asked:

"Zhu Zhuqing, how's the consideration going?"

Ma Hongjun beside them saw this scene, really wishing he himself were a beauty, and then agreed to Qianxunji.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyelashes fluttered, her face slightly blushing as she looked at Qianxunji, and she whispered:

"I... I am willing!"

"Huh?" Qianxunji put his hand to his ear, deliberately saying:

"What did you say? Speak louder, I can't hear you at all."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing glanced around and saw everyone's eyes on her.

For a moment, Zhu Zhuqing felt her face burning, her beautiful face turning even redder.

She resentfully glanced at Qianxunji, muttering in her heart:

Hmph, you jerk, in front of everyone, actually making her say yes loudly—she's about to die of embarrassment, how can she say it?

Qianxunji looked at Zhu Zhuqing's completely red face, feeling it was wonderful, and continued teasing:

"Zhu Zhuqing, if you don't speak, does that mean you're unwilling?"

"Huh?" Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed upon hearing this; having finally caught Qianxunji's eye, she wouldn't let him go.

At this moment, even if she were shyer, even if her face burned hotter, Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly said:

"I... I am willing, I am willing to marry you."

After saying that, Zhu Zhuqing quickly glanced around and saw everyone staring intently at her.

In an instant, Zhu Zhuqing felt unbearably shy, quickly lowering her head.

Qianxunji also smiled slightly upon hearing this; it seems today is going quite smoothly.

Just a few words and Zhu Zhuqing's heart was secretly pledged. It seems he, Qianxunji, needs to reassess his charm value.

Qianxunji directly took out a mirror from his space, checked it on the spot, his face full of confidence:

Handsome, really damn handsome.

Being handsome and rich would be fine enough, but with such strength, not attracting girls' affection is impossible.

Qianxunji held the mirror, checking left and right, the more he looked, the more he thought himself handsome.

Zhu Zhuqing had kept her head down for a while, not seeing Qianxunji speak, so she lifted her gaze and was instantly stunned.

She hadn't expected that, just after agreeing to marry Qianxunji, the other party wouldn't speak—fine—but then started narcissistically checking the mirror on the spot.

Although Zhu Zhuqing also thinks Qianxunji is handsome, can you cut the narcissism?

Besides, narcissism should be appropriate to the occasion.

Now, shouldn't you immediately give her Zhu Zhuqing a deep hug?

Zhu Zhuqing felt that Qianxunji might not have realized, and that she needed to remind him, so she said:

"Qianxunji!"

"Hmm!" Qianxunji grunted, his gaze turning to Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing saw that, blinked her eyes at Qianxunji, indicating he should show some reaction.

However, Qianxunji glanced at her, then continued idly playing with the mirror.

Zhu Zhuqing: ".........."

Zhu Zhuqing was speechless, and directly spoke up to remind him:

"Qianxunji, I've already agreed to marry you—shouldn't you show some reaction now?"

Qianxunji glanced at Zhu Zhuqing again and said:

"Don't make trouble, I rarely get to look in the mirror; let me admire my peerless handsome face a bit longer."

Qianxunji continued looking and commented:

"Ah, really damn handsome!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt that agreeing to marry Qianxunji so quickly might have made him obtain her too easily, causing him not to cherish her.

Zhu Zhuqing looked around and saw everyone with embarrassed expressions, even Fulan De looking at her with sympathy.

That expression seemed to say:

"Don't panic, if Qianxunji doesn't want you, my academy will still welcome you."

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing felt she was not valued at all, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into right then.

She glanced again at Qianxunji, seeing him still admiring his handsome face in the mirror, and Zhu Zhuqing felt even more disheartened.

She even felt that Qianxunji's earlier request for her to marry him might have been just a joke.

Yes, the more Zhu Zhuqing thought about it, the more she felt that was the case.

Otherwise, why is he just constantly staring at the mirror, boasting narcissistically about his handsomeness?

Even after she reminded him once, he continued looking in the mirror, ignoring her.

It's obvious Qianxunji is doing this to make her realize things herself, not to take it seriously.

At this moment, not only Zhu Zhuqing thought so, but also Fulan De, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Dai Mubai, and Zhao Wují thought the same.

Even Dai Mubai was thinking, Zhu Zhuqing's figure is so hot, I've worked hard for two years, yet she still won't give me her body, not even a kiss.

All we've managed is holding hands.

Two years, you know how I, Dai Mubai, have spent these two years?

I've chased Zhu Zhuqing for two years, and all we've done is hold hands.

Dai Mubai looked at Zhu Zhuqing's hot, curvaceous figure, feeling unwilling inside.

No way, I will definitely get Zhu Zhuqing's body.

With such a perfect, fiery figure, he hadn't seen one even in the imperial palace.

Now Qianxunji doesn't plan to marry Zhu Zhuqing; after Qianxunji leaves, Dai Mubai must work twice as hard and must obtain Zhu Zhuqing's body.

If Zhu Zhuqing is unwilling, don't blame Dai Mubai for resorting to some scheming tactics.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Qianxunji again with hope, only to see him still looking in the mirror, not giving her a single glance.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing felt completely hopeless, convinced that Qianxunji was merely toying with her.

Indeed, what status Qianxunji holds—the sole Divine Abode on the continent—how could he possibly take an interest in her?

Hehe, hehe!

Zhu Zhuqing gave a cold snort in her heart, glanced at the pitying expressions of those around her, and felt she could no longer stay here.

She turned and walked out of the square in desolation, deciding to leave the academy and wander the world once more.

As for returning to her family, that was out of the question.

Back when she left, it amounted to voluntarily giving up her claim to the inheritance, and surely everyone in the family now supported her older sister.

If she went back now, there would be only a dead end.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing walked desolately across the square, feeling that the world was vast yet she had nowhere to belong, as if no place needed her.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart sank to the depths; she hunched her shoulders, lowered her head, and walked toward the edge of the square, her face lost and vacant.

Bang!

Suddenly, with her spirits low and head down, Zhu Zhuqing failed to notice someone ahead and bumped into them.

But the low-spirited Zhu Zhuqing didn't even glance up, merely keeping her head down as she hurriedly apologized:

"Sorry, I bumped into you."

Having said that, Zhu Zhuqing stepped around and continued walking forward.

But just then, a large hand seized Zhu Zhuqing's small hand.

"Let go!"

Zhu Zhuqing immediately shouted back, "Although Qianxunji doesn't want me, I, Zhu Zhuqing, am a proud girl; otherwise Dai Mubai wouldn't have gotten her even after two years."

Even if Qianxunji doesn't want her, her body does not allow anyone to touch it.

Just then, a deep voice sounded:

"Didn't you promise to marry me? Without my permission, you're not allowed to leave, understand?"
