Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 179 Disappointment

Yuan Changqing, Catherine, and Wang Yuyan were quite satisfied after meeting Zhu Zhuqing, although her relationship with Yuan Hailan was still uncertain.

However, Yuan Changqing was also prepared to help Yuan Hailan by first dispelling Zhu Zhuqing's concerns.

...

After Catherine pulled Zhu Zhuqing back and they sat down, Yuan Changqing prepared to talk about Zhu Zhuqing's situation.

Yuan Changqing said, "Zhuqing, I'll just call you that. I heard you still have a lot of concerns about you and Hailan."

Zhu Zhuqing then replied, "Uncle, I know how Hailan feels about me, but I have no choice. If I were to get together with Hailan, it would cause him a lot of trouble."

"Moreover, to be honest, I'm already engaged. Although this engagement seems ridiculous, it's like a shackle, preventing me from making my own choices in life."

As Zhu Zhuqing spoke these words, her tone became increasingly sorrowful.

Upon hearing this, Catherine tightly grasped Zhu Zhuqing's hand and said, "Zhuqing, it's alright. We can help you solve these problems."

Catherine's words gave Zhu Zhuqing a glimmer of hope, but she still said, "Aunt Catherine, thank you."

Yuan Changqing then said, "Zhuqing, I am actually aware of your identity. The marriage contract you mentioned is nothing to our family."

Zhu Zhuqing then said, "Uncle, you already know who I am!"

"Hehe, when Hailan and the others rescued you, they saw your martial spirit. Plus, your surname is Zhu, so it's easy to guess, right?" Yuan Changqing explained with a smile.

Upon hearing Yuan Changqing's words, Yuan Hailan realized what he meant and said, "Dad, you said Zhu Qing is from the Xingluo Zhu family? How come I didn't think of that?"

Yuan Changqing continued, "That's right, the Zhu family and the Dai family of Xingluo have been intermarrying for generations, which is not a problem in itself. However, in my opinion, their rule, although it selects the strongest person as the successor, is ultimately a bit too inhumane."

"So, Zhuqing, I know what your concerns are. Since you told Hailan that you came to Soto City this time because you have something to do, I know why you did it."

"Then, you can make your choice after you've finished dealing with your matter with Hailan."

"Besides, you don't need to have any worries. If you really get together with Hailan, our family can easily solve your problems."

After hearing Yuan Changqing's words, Zhu Zhuqing replied, "Uncle, thank you for your understanding. Don't worry, I will definitely give Hailan an explanation after I finish that matter."

Yuan Changqing nodded and said, "Alright, that's settled then. Hailan, take Zhuqing to Soto City for a stroll whenever you have time, just to help her relax. Don't always stay at home."

Yuan Hailan immediately understood and quickly said, "Okay, Dad, that's perfect. Zhuqing is almost fully recovered now. I'll take Zhuqing to Soto City tomorrow."

Then, Yuan Hailan left with Zhu Zhuqing.

After the two left, Catherine asked, "Honey, do you think Hailan and Zhuqing will end up together?"

Wang Yuyan chimed in, "Yes, Brother Changqing, why didn't you help Hailan more just now!"

Yuan Changqing smiled mysteriously and said, "Hehe, how could I not help Hailan? It's just that Zhuqing still has a sliver of hope in her heart, so she can't make up her mind yet. I asked Hailan to take her to Soto City to help Zhuqing make a decision, and I also helped Hailan in the process."

Catherine asked, puzzled, "Honey, is there something else going on here?"

Yuan Changqing nodded and said, "That's right. You also know the rules of the Star Luo Empire's royal family and the Zhu family. This time, Zhu Zhuqing came to Soto City to find the person she is engaged to."

Wang Yuyan asked, "Could that person be around Soto City?"

Yuan Changqing replied, "That's right, or more precisely, it's at Shrek Academy. You might not know this, but a few years ago Shrek Academy admitted a student with a White Tiger Martial Soul, and his name is Dai Mubai."

"So, the person Zhu Zhuqing came here to find is this Dai Mubai."

Catherine said, "Since this Dai Mubai was able to get into Shrek Academy, his talent must be quite good. Does that mean our Hailan Academy has no hope?"

Yuan Changqing shook his head and said, "You only know one aspect, not the other."

"Then hurry up and tell me, you're driving me crazy!" Catherine said angrily.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Changqing quickly said, "Firstly, Dai Mubai fled here from the Star Luo Empire. He couldn't stand the oppression in the Star Luo Empire anymore, so he's planning to give up."

"Secondly, after escaping to Shrek Academy, he did not cultivate seriously and continued to slack off. Moreover, this Dai Mubai also has a nickname in Soto City, Dai Shao, and he is a regular at brothels."

"Therefore, I had a purpose in asking Hailan to take Zhuqing to Soto City for a stroll. Once Zhuqing sees Dai Mubai's situation, she will naturally make the right choice. At that time, as long as Hailan tells her that there is a Title Douluo in her family, Zhuqing will feel at ease."

After hearing Yuan Changqing's explanation, Catherine said, "Honey, you're so cunning! But I like it, hehe!"

Yuan Changqing was unhappy with this assessment and said, "How could this be considered insidious? It was clearly a perfectly legitimate scheme."

Wang Yuyan also said, "Brother Changqing, you're so narcissistic!"

Catherine then said happily, "Does that mean Hailan will be able to win over Zhuqing this time?"

Yuan Changqing nodded and said, "That's right. With your husband here, it's definitely a sure thing."

"Yes, yes, you're the best, honey."

...

Yuan Hailan followed Yuan Changqing's arrangement and took Zhu Zhuqing shopping in Soto City the next day.

Yuan Hailan asked, "Zhuqing, is there anywhere you'd like to visit? I can show you around."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, "Brother Hailan, I'm not familiar with this area either. Why don't you take me around to see it for myself?"

Zhu Zhuqing's words were exactly what Yuan Hailan wanted to hear, so she followed Yuan Changqing's advice and leisurely led Zhu Zhuqing around to see the sights.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the Rose Hotel. Just then, they saw a blond man with a sharp look on his face, leading two scantily clad twin women towards the Rose Hotel.

Yuan Hailan and Zhu Zhuqing also witnessed this scene. Although Zhu Zhuqing had not seen Dai Mubai many times, she was able to use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique with her White Tiger Martial Soul and Netherworld Cat Martial Soul, so she naturally had a sense of it.

Therefore, when Zhu Zhuqing saw the blond man, her Netherworld Cat Martial Soul sensed it and she knew that the blond man was Dai Mubai.

Upon witnessing this scene, Zhu Zhuqing's heart shattered completely, and she no longer dared to hope to fight against her manipulated fate.

When Zhu Zhuqing appeared near the Rose Hotel, Dai Mubai sensed it and quickly turned around to observe his surroundings.

However, Zhu Zhuqing realized that Dai Mubai might have also sensed the martial soul, so she quickly retreated behind Yuan Hailan, letting Yuan Hailan's body block her.

After observing his surroundings, Dai Mubai was puzzled as to why his martial soul was generating such an inexplicable sensation today.

Upon seeing this, the two twin girls asked in sweet voices, "Young Master Dai, what's wrong? What happened?"

Hearing the words of the sexy twin girls in his arms, and seeing that he hadn't discovered anything, Dai Mubai said, "It's nothing, let's go to the hotel first!"

Then, Dai Mubai led the twin girls toward the Rose Hotel.

On Zhu Zhuqing's side, Yuan Hailan also noticed something amiss.

Yuan Hailan asked, "Zhuqing, what's wrong? Did you find something? Did you see the people chasing you? But don't be afraid. In Soto City, our family has never been afraid of anyone."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, "Brother Hailan, don't worry, it's not those people. Let's go back now; we've been out for quite a while already."

Actually, after witnessing that scene, Zhu Zhuqing was initially disappointed, but she quickly recovered. Moreover, upon seeing Yuan Hailan beside her, she felt a renewed sense of anticipation.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's response, Yuan Hailan replied, "Alright, let's go back then. I'll bring you here again next time for a proper tour."

"Yes, thank you, Brother Hailan."

Then, Yuan Hailan and Zhu Zhuqing left together. As soon as they left, a series of tiger roars came from the Rose Hotel, indicating that a battle between soul masters was taking place there.
