The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 132 Open Your Heart

They only need to keep it a secret on behalf of the Lord, and that's it.

In just one day, the city of Yuefeng was abuzz with discussions about this matter.

However, this matter has not yet involved the Chu family, and it seems that the Rising Sun Empire has not investigated it so quickly.

But Chu Qianqiu understood that the other party must have already started investigating.

The Lake Sword Sect cannot escape, it depends on how Lord Liu will respond.

"By the way, how will your father handle this?"

Back at the Chu family, Chu Qianqiu naturally took Lui Ruoyan to the backyard to enjoy the scenery while asking these questions.

Lui Ruoyan answered calmly.

"I think the Rising Sun Empire probably won't give us a hard time over this matter."

"Although the Xiao family is a legitimate tax-paying family of the Rising Sun Empire, their strength is definitely not as good as ours."

"If the Empire encounters any difficulties, the Xiao family can only provide financial support, not military assistance."

"Recently, the Rising Sun Empire and the Falling Star Empire have had no contact and their relationship is tense. They could go to war at any time."

"At that time, the Empire will need the help of neutral sects like ours and will be willing to pay us accordingly."

"So I don't believe that even if they find out, they will do anything to us."

"They still need our fighting power."

"And besides, we were the ones who were attacked. We have every reason to argue that we are not the instigators of all this."

"As long as your situation doesn't leak out, we should all be fine."

Lui Ruoyan answered truthfully, giving Chu Qianqiu the most reasonable answer.

Chu Qianqiu nodded, knowing that he was indeed the most troublesome one, but he didn't regret the choices he had made.

If he had to do it again, he would definitely do the same.

After all, it was the Xiao family who had provoked him in the first place, and he had only gone to buy something.

The people of the city of Rongzhu can testify to this.

If the Rising Sun Empire really causes trouble, he has every reason to reveal the reason for wiping out his own clan and see how the Empire reacts.

...

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things for now. I'll take you to see a place."

With Lui Ruoyan, Chu Qianqiu came to a quiet door and observed from a distance.

Lui Ruoyan was curious and didn't know where this place was, so she just stared blankly.

"What's wrong? Is your treasure hidden here?"

"You could say that, did you figure it out?"

"No, I was just guessing randomly. Actually, it looks like an outhouse."

"...."

The two of them quickly entered the door and started a conversation.

Actually, since coming to the Chu family, Lui Ruoyan had been very curious about one thing.

That is, where did the people of the Chu family go?

The last time she came, there were a lot of people here.

Now, there were very few people left in the family courtyard, to the point where she was suspicious.

It wasn't until she followed Chu Qianqiu and entered this inconspicuous door that she suddenly realized and understood everything.

It turned out that the Chu family was hiding a secret realm comparable to a small world!

The environment here was beautiful, with lush vegetation and a vast area, just like a real world.

And all those missing members of the Chu family, she found them all here, all heading towards a super tall tower.

"You actually have a secret realm? How is that possible!"

"That's something that only exists in legends, even the Emperor of the Empire doesn't have one, and you actually have it?"

"That's right, I do. Isn't it surprising?"

With a smirk, Chu Qianqiu showed Lui Ruoyan around, leaving her even more shocked.

Lui Ruoyan's current mood was not just surprise, it was more like shock.

She couldn't understand why the man in front of her had suddenly become so powerful.

And now, he was showing her another secret realm, which she couldn't understand even more.

"You, on the surface, are just a small landlord in Moon Phoenix City. Why do you have treasures that even many emperors can't obtain?"

"To be honest, you are quite intimidating. When I first saw you, I thought you were just an ordinary person."

"If I knew you were wealthier than me, I would..."

"What's wrong? Won't you give me that storage ring and sword?"

"No, how could I be that kind of person?"

"Just... speak to me more politely."

The two of them chatted and soon arrived at the entrance of the Trial Tower.

Looking at this giant tower located in the center of the secret realm, Liu Ruoyan was overwhelmed by its magnificence and felt a tremendous aura.

"What is this place?"

"It's a place to become stronger."

"So, you reached the Gold Core realm quickly here?"

"You can understand it that way."

"But your treasures are too incredible... How did you obtain them?"

"That's confidential."

"I only tell my clan members and my wife."

When Chu Qianqiu suddenly said this, Liu Ruoyan seemed to sense something, turned to look at him, and then turned away.

She seemed to understand what he meant, so she felt a bit nervous, as she also had some feelings for him in secret.

Did he just say that to her?

Does she have a chance?

At that time, after seeing that he already had a wife and even children, she felt hesitant to disturb him, always feeling like she was unnecessary.

Now, her father paved the way for her, but she still hesitated to agree.

And Chu Qianqiu opened another door for her. Should she continue pretending not to understand and reject him?

"What's wrong? Have you ever considered marrying me?"

"If you marry me, I'll tell you."

"With my current status, I should be worthy of the daughter of the Sword Lake Sect's sect master, right?"

Chu Qianqiu smiled and looked curiously at Liu Ruoyan, who had her head lowered.

Liu Ruoyan shook her head vigorously, finally raised her head to look at him, indicating her rejection.

"I have never underestimated you. There is no question of whether you are worthy or not."

"Just... I'm wondering if I can really be someone you need."

"I have always been someone who is not good at expressing emotions, not very clear about how to express the feelings between men and women."

"Actually, I..."

As she spoke, Liu Ruoyan had already gathered her courage and tried to open up her heart.

Chu Qianqiu made another move, answering for her, very considerate.

"It's okay, I already figured it out. Can't I speak for you?"

"You have a good impression of me, even like me a little, right?"

"Come on, let me take you to see what's inside this tower."

"Wait, the tower?"

"Yes, don't you want to see it?"

"But we were just talking about... the feelings between men and women."

"That's not important anymore. What's done is done."

"What do you want to do after we finish looking? Get married, the two of us."

"What? Is there any connection between these two things?"

"No."

"Well, isn't this... a bit too fast?"

"I haven't even... agreed yet."

"Let's go!"

Holding Liu Ruoyan's waist, Chu Qianqiu stepped into the entrance of the Trial Tower, laughing heartily, ignoring Liu Ruoyan's shy posture.

Although Liu Ruoyan declined, her cheeks turned red secretly, feeling the warmth transmitted from his palm, and for the first time, she felt a sense of reliance.
