Reborn Master vs. School Beauty

Chapter 272 spoken

Not long after, an old man who looked like a butler came out of the door and cupped his hands. "This old man is the butler of the Han estate. Master ordered for Master Li’s living room to be invited for a chat." Li Qiang followed the steward in leisurely, while Niu San respectfully waited outside the door, seemingly treating Li Qiang as his master.

When Li Qiang entered the living room, he saw that the furniture was all made of precious wood and had an antique design. With just one look, he could tell that the owner of the furniture was someone extraordinary. At this time, a person walked out from behind them. He looked to be in his fifties, with a square face, a heavy jujube face, a slight beard on his chin, a purple suit, and a green jade thumb ring. He looked dignified, probably standing outside Han.

When Han Congan saw Li Qiang, he carefully examined him before cupping his hands. "I heard that young master came to propose marriage. This old and useless one is extremely grateful, so I’ve invited young master to come to the banquet. Whether this matter succeeds or not, we can be friends." Li Qiang thought, "This old boy really knows how to talk. No wonder he became the richest man in Eight River Town."

He stood up and cupped his hands. "This one has heard of Steward Han’s great name and has heard of his great name before. This one admires and admires him greatly, so this one has come to propose marriage. I hope that Steward Han will grant my wish." "If my daughter wasn’t a compliment from my father, she is indeed an outstanding and good girl. But even so, Young Master Li should have heard about her. My daughter is a spoiled child and has a strange temper, so I can’t say if I can marry you. If I offend you in any way, please forgive me."

Li Qiang said with a smile, "This old man is being too courteous. I came here with sincerity to propose marriage, and I have no intention of doing so. So I hope that you can help me." Han Congan nodded his head and said, "Then we shall take our seats first. This old and useless one will treat young master to a meal before we talk about the blind date." Li Qiang thought, "My top priority right now is to get my first wife. What kind of a banquet would that be? Isn’t it a waste of time?" Han Congan saw the troubled look on his face and asked, "What is it, is there an urgent matter, young master?" Li Qiang hastily shook his head and said, "Of course not. I won’t be courteous at all if you’re invited by someone other than Han."

At this moment, the large table in the side hall was already filled with steaming dishes. Outside of Han, he was indeed one of the wealthiest families in Eight River Town, but he could see that all kinds of dishes were prepared with the best ingredients. They were not the same as what Li Qiang ate in the restaurant.

Li Qiang originally had no interest in eating, but he was attracted by the tasty dishes and moved his chopsticks a few times. The two of them, on the other hand, got along rather well with each other, and after three rounds of drinking, Han Zhong’s face suddenly darkened as he asked sternly, "Little brother, may I ask, why is your intention of coming to the Han Family to propose when you suddenly came to the Eight Rivers Town? Could it be that there is some other reason? "

The atmosphere had changed drastically. Even the servants standing around them had a trace of killing intent on their faces. They were no longer as respectful as they were before. Li Qiang thought, "Looks like this old brat isn’t a good person. He clearly wants me to lie to him?" "It’s not that easy." Li Qiang lightly smiled and said: "Old mister, you don’t need to say that. I came to the precious place for my first time and am indeed famous. I also want to find a suitable wife for myself, with absolutely no intentions of teasing you."

He did not know what was on his mind, but Li Qiang said in his heart, "This is the most crucial moment. The reason why Han was so bluff is simply to probe and see my sincerity, if I reveal my guilt, this old man will definitely kick me out, so you must maintain your calm, and do not expose yourself right now. Since you want to have enough wives, this first business is the most important, it cannot be abandoned midway."

For a long time, Li Qiang looked at Han Congan with a smile. Finally, Han Congan nodded and said, "You, as a junior, don’t seem to be a liar. Whatever, I’ll let you meet my daughter. However, our future development depends on whether she can agree or not."

Li Qiang said with a smile, "Of course. It’s only right that we have a mutual love for a marriage. We can’t just casually do it." "Take Young Master Li to the backyard and inform the young lady to come see him," said Han Congan to a servant. Li Qiang did not dare to say more as he followed behind the servant. After passing through a few courtyards, they arrived at a back garden. The servant placed Li Qiang in a pavilion, and two pretty maids came up to serve Li Qiang fragrant tea.

And then, the servant said respectfully, "Young master Li, please wait a moment. I’ll go invite the young lady over." Li Qiang nodded and said, "Go ahead, I’ll wait here." Li Qiang glanced at the two maidservants beside him. They were both around the age of 15 or 16 and were both delicate and pretty. Not long after the servant left, he heard footsteps nearby. Li Qiang responded and looked over. He was stunned. A beautiful woman wearing a light green robe walked out from the depths of the flowers. She was also looking at him right now.

Li Qiang was stupefied as he thought to himself, "Legend has it that this Miss Han’s looks are indeed outstanding. It looks like it isn’t a lie, but why can’t such a beautiful woman get married? Could it really be a matter of personality?" Before he could say anything, the beauty said coldly, "If you are a smart person, you should leave quickly. Don’t waste your time here, I only came out to see you to listen to my lord father, but there is one thing you should remember, there is no hope between us."

When Li Qiang heard this, he was stunned. "Miss, why do you say that? We don’t even have a short time together, so why do you think we have no chance?" When Miss Han saw Li Qiang respond so directly to her, she actually felt somewhat surprised. With a mild tone, she said, "You’re such an uninteresting person. I already told you that it’s impossible between us, so why are you spouting so much nonsense?" Li Qiang said, "Miss’s words are wrong. The ancient saying goes, ’Yun is the cause of trouble’. I came here because of my name, isn’t Miss being too heartless to me?"

Miss Han coldly snorted, "Do you think I, Han Xuan, am a fool? All these years, among those who have proposed marriage, who didn’t covet my family’s property, when we first arrived, they all swore an oath to join hands with me, but in reality, they are all just dreams of a man getting rich. I’m not necessarily married off, so why would I want to help you, bunch of rich people.

Li Qiang suddenly laughed out loud, "I think Miss Han has probably been bitten by a snake for ten years, or else how could she be so cynical? You’re right, there are many men in this world who are very bad, but you should also know that all the men in this world aren’t what you think. If you view the world like this, then how bleak life must be for you.

Han Xuan coldly snorted and said: "You’re quite a quibble. Since you said that you’re different from others, how are you going to prove it to me?" Li Qiang smiled and said, "This thing needs time to be verified. As long as Miss gets along with me for a while, I guarantee that you will understand me." Han Xuan shook her head. "I don’t have the time to accompany you, so you should leave. Let’s not waste any time."

Li Qiang said, "Has Miss Han never had feelings for any man? You want to live your life as an old woman of the Han family who’s being mocked? " Hearing this, Han Xuan flew into a rage. "Your words are becoming more and more unpleasant to listen to. Don’t say those words in my ear." Li Qiang said, "Miss, please listen to me. Although your actions have no effect on yourself, you haven’t even left the pavilion at such an age. Could it be that Master Li has a lot of face? You can’t just consider yourself."

Han Xuan seemed to be moved by his words. After a long while, she finally said, "How about this. If you can promise me one thing, I will be able to interact with you for a while and see if you have the strength to marry me or not." Li Qiang nodded and said, "Alright, Miss, feel free to say it. I’m willing to do anything for you." "I want you to kill someone for me!" Han Xuan said. Li Qiang was scared out of his wits and said in surprise, "Who does Miss want me to kill? It’s not a good thing for you to have such a strong killing intent at such a young age. " Han Xuan curled her lips, and said: "You seem to be someone who has been in the battlefield for a long time, but why are you speaking in such a childish manner?" Killing people in the martial arts world today is as easy as cutting vegetables, why do you have to make such a big fuss over nothing? "
