Hearing Hao Ren's question, Zhao Yanzi glared his eyes at Hao Ren and said, "I'm not in love like those kids!
Hao Ren looked at him, "You haven't really grown up yet!"
"Of course, I'm not as mature as you, uncle!" He deliberately emphasized the word "uncle".
Hao Ren smiled and stopped arguing with him. He turned around and saw Zhao Guang who was busy checking the documents in his study. Then he looked at Zhao Hongyu who was busy cooking in the kitchen. Last he saw Zhao Yanzi who looked like a pretty neighbor girl . He was comfortable with this scene.
A family with three family members looks like a normal family. "All of a sudden I'm a member of their family?"
Hao Ren was confused.
"It's dinner time!" Zhao Hongyu brought the last two dishes from the kitchen and said in a loud voice.
Zhao Yanzi's father Zhao Guang put down the documents in his hands and walked out of the study.
"Hao Ren, come eat with us," Zhao Hongyu said to Hao Ren gently.
Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren and looked dissatisfied.
"Don't make a face like that. Even if Hao Ren is not your fiancee, he is still our guest," Zhao Hongyu patted Zhao Yanzi on the head and chided him.
Hao Ren's brain froze again when he heard the word "engagement".
"Sit down and eat," Zhao Guang sat down and said firmly to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren felt a little awkward, but he was unable to refuse their invitation. All he could do was find a seat and sit down.
The table is big enough for the four of them.
"Are you busy at school?" Zhao Hongyu gave Hao Ren a pair of chopsticks and asked.
"Uh, bearable," Hao Ren replied and felt strange. He just met them. Why would he eat in their home and interact with them like a family?
He thought for a while and finally remembered he was here to ask about the information related to the "Dragon Clan".
"I know you have a lot of questions about us, but I believe gradually you will get used to it," Zhao Hongyu said as if he knew what Hao Ren was thinking.
"The new Zi in her second year of high school. Usually, it's too early to talk about marriage at this age. However, things like this can also be resolved in our group at an early age. I gotta say Zi's life is in your hands."
Hao Ren was stunned. Then it became serious.
"You swallowed the inner essence of Zi. Actually, we can forcefully remove it from your body, but it will definitely cause you severe injuries. Zi was actually kind-hearted, and he was unwilling to resolve this matter by force. In my view, I don't want anyone else to assume responsibility for Zi's mistake."
Zhao Hongyu paused for a moment. Hao Ren could not help but look at Zhao Yanzi at this moment, but he threw out his face.
"So we decided to leave Zi's inner essence in your body and make you start cultivating. However, I must say that this is not completely safe. If you cannot reach a certain level within a certain time ..in other words, if your body cannot withstand the excess energy flowing from the inner essence, the consequences are also dangerous," zhao Hongyu said.
Hao Ren became nervous as the graceful and gentle Zhao Hongyu suddenly became serious.
"I don't mind telling you more," Zhao Guang suddenly said," There really wouldn't be any negative effect for Zi if we took it from your body and returned it to Zi. But in order for the elders to trust us, I asked Elder Lu to lie. He told them Zi would not be able to adjust to the essence of the dragon sari after the essence of the sari dwells in your body. This is so they don't kill you.
After hearing Zhao Guang's words, Hao Ren felt he was among innumerable dangers. He had already taken half a step to heaven many times a few days ago.
Zhao Guang looked at Hao Ren, "You have two choices. First, let us forcefully take out the point. It's a big risk. Second, cultivate according to what we gave you. The risk is still there, but much smaller."
"What I want to know .. " Hao Ren looked at Zhao Yanzi, "How does this loss affect Zi?"
Hearing Hao Ren call it "Zi", Zhao Yanzi pouted his lips and did not comment on it.
"At the moment there is no danger whatsoever. Nonetheless three more years after Zi was eighteen, if you can't open all the openings of the dragon essence and move half the Dragon Innate Essence back to her, then, Zi will not be able to live for more than two years," Zhao Guang said.
"In other words, if we follow the second option, everyone has to take risks. Zi didn't have to risk the first choice, but it would be very dangerous for me. Aren't we?" ask Hao Ren.
"true." Zhao Guang nodded.
The dining table was quiet again.
"What's wrong with this fiancee?" ask Hao Ren.
"That's a condition of the second choice. If all choose the second option, you can only complete the necessary rituals by getting married to each other" Zhao Guang said slowly.
"Married to each other?" Hao Ren thought about it and suddenly understood. He looked at Zhao Yanzi's face, which was currently as red as a tomato.
"Is there any other option?" thought Hao Ren and asked
"While not." Zhao Guang immediately replied.
The silence snatched the dining table once more.
"This little girl, Zhao Yanzi, risked her life for me. What else is there to doubt?" hao Ren thought to himself.
"Don't kill him, but I also don't want to marry him," Zhao Yanzi suddenly spoke.
"These two conditions cannot be carried out together." Zhao Hongyu reminded him.
"Anyway, I don't want to marry her." Zhao Yanzi flicked her lips as her face turned red.
"So kill him?" zhao Hongyu asked.
"Eh .. don't." Zhao Yanzi bit her lips as she was placed into a dilemma. After all this was his fault, and Hao Ren was innocent.
"Since the two of you have no refutation, let's follow the second option," Zhao Guang hit the table and said, "Let's eat!"
"Dad ... Yanzi still wanted to protest, but he was stopped by Zhao Guang's facial expression.
"Zi, you must take responsibility for your mistakes .." Zhao Hongyu comforted Zhao Yanzi, "I've done some investigation into Hao Ren. He's a good boy who pays attention and respects parents. Your father and I are very satisfied, otherwise how would we agree. As long as you're not stubborn, he'll definitely treat you well."
Hearing Zhao Hongyu's words, Hao Ren who was sitting opposite her, his body stiffened awkwardly, not knowing how to respond. He never thought of having a little girl as his fiancee,
"How's your English, Ren?" suddenly Zhao Hongyu asked Hao Ren. After confirming that Hao Ren would become Zi's fiancee, Zhao Hongyu greeted her differently.
"Hmm, that's fine," Hao Ren responded and thought they must already know how good his English was better than himself because they had investigated it.
"Well, Zi is pretty good in all subjects except English. In the meantime, come to guide Zi's English and get to know her better," Zhao Hongyu said.
"Who would want to know her better .." Zhao Yanzii flicked his lips and said in a soft voice.
"Uh .." Hao Ren wasn't sure to come here every night. He has never had experience as a tutor.
"At the same time, Zi can also teach you about cultivation. I think it would be good for everyone if you guys helped each other," Zhao Hongyu said.
Thinking of her cultivation being related to Zhao Yanzi's life, Hao Ren did not dare to be careless even though he was unable to accept her as his fiancee. He thought about it and said, "All right, but you don't have to send a car to pick me up. I'll come alone."
"alright. This house is not too far from your campus. If you take the bus, route 767 will take you straight here." Zhao Hongyu smiled as Hao Ren agreed to his plan. That smile is so sweet.
Hao Ren turned around and looked at Zhao Yanzi. She thought the facial features and curves of this little girl's body were very similar to her mother's. Once she grows up, she will become an extraordinarily beautiful woman.
"Huh" Zhao Yanzi snorted and avoided Hao Ren's eyes.
