Ancient Strengthening Techniques
Chapter 81 - Sadness
’’Sorry, I like you. I like you so much! ’
Qing Shui's words were uttered without any conscious thought, and were wrapped in truth and sincerity.
Yu He lowered his head, not saying anything.
” I know that/it's supposed to be the time where I apologize to you, but I still have to tell you this. I really like you a lot. I like your looks, I like your personality, I like your intelligence. I don't want to find an excuse. I admit that/that I am full of lust, a horny man, and will lose myself whenever I see beautiful girls. However, I only feel an interesting sensation in my heart every time I see you. If you fall in love with another man, the pain I will feel, will be unbearable. I don't know what else to say. ” Qing Shui explained in a rather mocking and pitiful manner.
Yu He was gaping when he saw Qing Shui. Although he knew there were many types of people in this world from the nine continents, this was the first time he had heard someone clearly call themselves aroused. Not only that, this man confessed to the woman he loved that/it would have his heart moved when he saw another beautiful woman. Is he crazy or sincere?
Is he an idiot, or is he really sincere, or is he very confident?
However, this is no longer important, the important thing is that/it is in his heart this person has already left an indelible mark. Yu He, regarding this situation, had completely lost.
Seeing Yu He's troubled expression, after a slight hesitation, Qing Shui reached out to straighten his tangled clothes. A gentle look appeared in his eyes, causing Yu He's heart to speed up again. Why are his eyes so clear?
’’ Qing Shui, Brothers and Sisters thank you for your feelings. You like me, and I'm very happy to hear it, but what you don't know is that big sister is a widow, I will never be with another man again. ” Yu She forced a smile as she gently stroked Qing Shui's face.
Widows. Qing Shui wasn't so surprised by this news, seeing that/it Yu He was close to 30, with a graceful and graceful figure, how could he still be single? However, he was still a little surprised by the revelation.
The world customs of the nine continents, although nothing can be said as absolute equality between opposites*, in this cultivation-oriented world, there are still some women who are matriarch/leaders/sects of each group.
However there are some people whose status is a bit awkward – and they are widows. The widows in the world of the nine continents were considered as an unlucky existence, the younger a widow was, the more curse for her. No matter how exciting, or how charming, most men still cannot accept this.
If a widow wants to remarry, then they must seek the consent of her ex-husband's family. This was an iron-clad habit that had been set for a long time. However, as time passed, this rule changed slightly. It is slowly becoming the sole right of wealthy families. This means that/that once a woman is married to a family of status and power, even if the groom has to die, the woman is not allowed to remarry. Even if the woman and the man were not actually married, and only had the status of being engaged, if the man died, the women would still not be allowed to remarry. The woman would then enter the male partner's family as a toy, suffering a fate worse than death.
Of course, if the female family had the same power and authority, there would be no other restrictions.
Looking at Yu's tear-filled face, and the neckline as well as cleavage, Qing Shui wondered. Who is the lucky but unlucky person who is her ex-husband?
Yu He did not struggle, hearing Qing Shui's confession, Yu He's elegant face, looked at Qing Shui with a complicated look in his eyes.
Restlessly shaking his head, ” Qing Shui, You are still young .. After a few more years, you will forget the feelings you have for this older sister. You should concentrate on your career and cultivation right now. I am just a flower that will lose its bloom, and not only that, but those people will never allow me to marry again. ’
Qing Shui furrowed his brows, even though he knew his habits, this was the first time he had faced off against it. It could be considered that/that she was in a difficult situation, because Qing Shui really wanted Yu He to be hers.
Initially, Qing Shui determined that/that before he entered the Yan Clan, he would have no relationship. However, after meeting Wenren Wu-Shuang and Baili Jingwei, he slightly changed his way of thinking. Qing Shui from his previous world, knew the power of influence. It was the same for this world of the nine continents as well. Although Qing Shui didn't want to rely on external factors to eradicate his enemies, he also didn't want to suppress his own feelings. If one day, his strength reached the peak, then he would set his own rules, and create his own habits.
’What strength do I have to achieve to face those people? Qing Shui gently cupped his hands around Yu He's delicate face as he asked.
With a more complicated look on her face, she shook her head as she looked at Qing Shui. ’Don't waste your strength, or your life. Sister appreciates your thoughts, it's just that they don't want her older sister to marry again, and .... ‘’.
Yu He stuttered unnaturally as he struggled to finish his sentence.
”And what? Could it be that they still wanted something more than you? ” Qing Shui felt anger from his anger, as his voice grew louder.
” No.. They don't allow me to date openly with other men. ” Yu He said softly, while looking away.
’’ What? ’’ Qing Shui shock. Not being able to openly date a man means that/that he can secretly date one? Qing Shui was very curious about this particular family.
Yu He timidly kept his head bowed, as he quietly glanced at Qing Shui to record his reaction.
” But you are very young, how can they punish you for living a lonely life. ’
Yu He was speechless, as the color on his cheeks flushed red, before saying, ” You must be at least a Xiantian cultivator before the other party is willing to release their grip on me. Because only if you were a Xiantian would they not feel that there was anything embarrassing about it. ’
Xiantian, at least Xiantian. Qing Shui hated that/that he was so weak right now, a natural trench that had restricted many others from stepping into Xiantian. Will he be able to surpass the barrier? Who knows how long! Married to Yu He will be as hard as ascending to heaven.
