Protect Our Chief-Chapter 641 - 67: Promotion! Shouzhe, Great Celestial Pride
...
"?"
Wang Shouzhe was slightly taken aback.
He prided himself on having a good memory, yet he truly couldn’t recall where he had seen this sudden stranger, a young woman, before.
Qiaan Xuehan and Wang Zonghao were also momentarily stunned, then they cast a knowing, suggestive look at Wang Shouzhe.
Tsk tsk tsk~ Who would’ve thought~~ even the Patriarch Shouzhe is a dashing veteran of the flower gardens? It’s been less than a month since he arrived in the Southern Desert, and already he’s been surrounded by several beauties.
Rumor has it that the Tianyan Fairy of the Celestial Splendor Boat has been secluding herself from visitors since meeting Patriarch Shouzhe. It’s unclear what happened. And the Celestial Pride of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Feifei, also seems to hold some affection for Patriarch Shouzhe.
As all eyes turned to him, Wang Shouzhe immediately responded gracefully, clasping his hands in greeting: "May I ask, young lady, who you are...?"
Mo Waoqiu quickly curtseyed again: "Patriarch Shouzhe, please do not hold it against Waoqiu. I am a core disciple of the Xuan Yao Lineage in the Longzuo Purple Mansion Academy, and a junior of Senior Sister Luqiu. When Miss Liyao joined Director Celestial River Zhenren’s faction, I saw the Patriarch from afar. Thus, I come to pay my respects."
From Xuan Yao’s lineage?
Wang Shouzhe realized: "So you’re Luqiu’s junior. In that case, you don’t need to pay respects as a junior, just call me ’Senior Brother’."
By calculation, Wang Shouzhe was also a named direct disciple of Purple Mansion Academy’s Changchun Valley.
"Waoqiu dares not." Mo Waoqiu hastily shook her head, "As Miss Liyao’s follower, how could Waoqiu dare be disrespectful to the Patriarch?"
"Liyao’s follower?" Wang Shouzhe was slightly puzzled, "How come I am unaware of this matter?"
Usually, taking on a follower is a major event because, in a certain sense, Liyao’s follower is already considered half of the Wang Family, and Liyao would have surely written to inform him.
Previously, before Liyao took Lu Xianghui as a follower, she had written him a letter. He even sent someone to investigate Lu Xianghui’s background, verifying that although the Lu Family wasn’t powerful, they were pure in conduct and had a clean family reputation.
Mo Waoqiu’s face slightly reddened, and she said in a low, embarrassed voice, "Miss Liyao has not agreed to this matter yet. However, Waoqiu believes that with sincerity, even metal and stone can be penetrated... In my heart, Miss Liyao is already my master."
"Uh..."
Wang Shouzhe internally rolled his eyes, never expecting this young girl to have such one-sided enthusiasm.
However, matters between juniors are best left for them to handle themselves.
At this moment, he didn’t say much more and casually encouraged, "Then you must work hard to earn Liyao’s recognition soon."
"Thank you, Patriarch Shouzhe." Mo Waoqiu was incredibly encouraged, her face slightly flushed with excitement, nodding repeatedly, "Waoqiu will definitely strive to do so."
"Waoqiu, you actually recognize Young Master Shouzhe?" Huangfu Feifei walked over, her eyes shifting between them, with an uncontainable suspicion in her gaze.
"Feifei." Mo Waoqiu was slightly embarrassed, pulling her friend’s sleeve and whispering, "This Patriarch Shouzhe is the father of the young lady I told you about."
"What?"
Huangfu Feifei was somewhat surprised, unable to resist scrutinizing Wang Shouzhe a few times, feeling astonished in her heart.
To think, Young Master Shouzhe not only has a family and children, but his daughter is a Great Celestial Pride!
Sigh~~ A daughter who is a Great Celestial Pride must have a proud personality, right? Getting along in life from now on won’t be easy... Sigh, a headache~
"So Feifei and Waoqiu know each other too... It’s fate that we meet. Normally, I should treat you to a meal. However, I am preoccupied with important matters today, so it will have to wait." Wang Shouzhe said, apologetically clasping his hands at everyone, "Everyone, I’ll have to excuse myself first."
After bidding farewell to everyone, Wang Shouzhe left the Hundred Treasures Pavilion together with Ancestor Longyan, Wang Shihai, Wang Shouzhu, and others.
As they watched the group leave, Qiaan Xuehan maintained a calm face, but his heart was filled with complicated emotions.
A Great Celestial Pride is indeed a Great Celestial Pride~
Although he had known early on that Wang Liyao had joined the faction under Celestial River Zhenren, he couldn’t help but feel envious whenever he saw others’ attitudes toward the Great Celestial Pride.
If only he had such superb talent back then, he wouldn’t have had to lower himself in front of that stupid woman Cao Lina, being obsequious for so many years with such grievances.
Meanwhile,
at the door of the Zuoqiu Family’s private room, Young Master Zuoqiu stood and stared sinisterly at Wang Shouzhe.
It was that guy who snatched his Infinite Treasure Pill. If that were all, it wouldn’t be so bad; but that boy also looked more handsome than him, an intolerable offense.
However, the veiled, cold woman behind him had an excellent figure, a cold bearing, and an extraordinary demeanor, definitely out of the ordinary.
Young Master Zuoqiu thought this and couldn’t help glancing at Ancestor Longyan, taking in several looks.
Suddenly,
Ancestor Longyan slightly turned her head, her cold, profound eyes cast an indifferent glance at Young Master Zuoqiu.
An intangible, substantial killing intent immediately engulfed him remotely, locking onto him.
"Hmm?"
Young Master Zuoqiu immediately felt as if he was placed in an ice cellar, his body bristling, cold sweat pouring.
This feeling was like being watched by an unparalleled fierce beast; even the slightest movement would lead to instant death.
The two middle-stage Celestial Human Realm elders beside him changed their expressions slightly, almost simultaneously sensing the dangerous aura.
