Chapter 278: Duped? (2/2)

“En. Seems justifiable. However, what does it have to do with you when I’m roasting meat?”

“We are now in the same group. You roasting meat can possibly attract demonic beasts here, and bring harm to our safety. How does this have nothing to do with us?” Ning Wushuang seemed prepared to win the debate.

“Fine! But you all had also eaten my roasted meat. We are even,” Cheng Yu laughed.

“You…hmph! I knew it. They always said to be beware of suspicious gifts, as they are sure to be filled with ill-intentions. So you were just waiting for this!” Ning Wushuang voiced out her fury. She wanted to say that she did not eat any. But all of her other senior and junior sisters had eaten it, including Ning Xue.

“Haha! You’re flattering me. I have really given the roasted meat to you guys to enjoy, but you have forced me to say such words!” Cheng Yu spoke complacently.

“Senior Sister, see! I knew Senior Brother wasn’t someone who would fall for female charms so easily,” Hearing Cheng Yu’s words, Tian Xing finally knew why Cheng Yu would give them a portion of their roasted meat as he whispered happily to Tian Xue. Tian Xue also felt a lot better after hearing what Cheng Yu said. At least this person wasn’t as hopeless as she thought him to be. If Cheng Yu were to hear what Tian Xing said, no one knew how he would feel because Cheng Yu had really gifted them the meat out of good will. Basically, he had never thought of such a thing until Ning Wushuang had said those words.

“Hmph! As if I would believe your words. Let’s not talk about you destroying my Senior Sister’s sword first. But you had spoiled my Senior Sister’s reputation. Regardless of how we see it, it’s your fault!” Ning Wushuang ignored how Ning Xue’s face had reddened as she continously pinched her.

“En. This is indeed my fault. Small steamed bun, I have truly underestimated you,” Cheng Yu nodded his head. Cheng Yu didn’t expect this small steamed bun to actually be so good in debating.

“Very good! Since you have admitted to it, then shouldn’t you compensate my Senior Sister?” Ning Wushuang saw Cheng Yu admitting to his mistake, so she interrogated him complacently. Ning Xue had also become very happy. Unexpectedly, this Junior Sister of her’s was actually so smart. She could actually make Cheng Yu admit his wrongs!

“Naturally. Since I spoiled big steamed bun’s reputation, then I shall marry her tonight!” Cheng Yu replied seriously.

“WHAT!” Cheng Yu’s words caused Ning Wushuang and Tian Xue to be flabbergasted. Wasn’t it supposed to be a compensation with a sword? How did it become marriage? Tian Xue’s complexion had turned green due to anger as she tightly clenched her teeth.

“You hoodlum! What nonsense are you sprouting? Who wants to marry you? I just wanted you to compensate me,” Ning Xue reacted as she quickly hid her embarrassment.

“Since I spoiled your reputation, I can only marry you home. This is the compensation I have for you. If you aren’t willing, then it’s not my problem anymore. It’s you who aren’t willing to accept this compensation,” Although Ning Wushuang was good in bickering, Cheng Yu wouldn’t concede to her so easily. Worst come to worst, he will at most have another wife. Although the current him did not have such an intention, in the end, he was still a man. Who wouldn’t want an extra beauty beside him?

“How can you be so shameless? Want to marry my Senior Sister? Dream on! We only wanted some physical compensation,” Ning Wushuang looked at Cheng Yu with disgust.

“Che! Speaking as if you were the one being taken advantage of. In any case, I only have my body. Take it if you want. Or else, forget it,” Cheng Yu spoke shamelessly.

“Why are you so unreasonable?!” Ning Wushuang voiced out her resentment. When she saw the hateful countenance of Cheng Yu’s, she really hoped to go forward and give him a bashing. Unfortunately, she wasn’t his match.

“I’m being very reasonable. It’s you two who are being unreasonable. Marrying her after spoiling her reputation is very justifiable. Since you two aren’t willing, then dream on about getting other stuff.”

“I’m willing!” Suddenly, Ning Xue shouted out.

“…” Instantly, everyone quieted down as they looked at Ning Xue.

“What did you say?!” Cheng Yu was also shocked. He didn’t mishear it, right?! She’s willing?!?!

“I said that I’m willing!” Ning Xue subconsciously turned red after being stared at by everyone. However, she still gave Cheng Yu a resolute reply.

“Senior Sister, what are you saying? Have you turned mad? How can you marry him?!” Ning Wushuang was alarmed.

“Cough cough! Big steamed bun…er, miss Ning Xue, I’m just spouting nonsense just now. Don’t take it for real. Compensate, I will compensate you a good sword,” Cheng Yu was stunned. He was just joking and she actually treated it for real. Especially that resolute reply he got from her. Cheng Yu took out five supreme-grade spiritual artifacts and placed it in front of Ning Xue, ”Miss Ning Xue, pick any one you like. Take it as my compensation to you.”

“Supreme-grade spiritual artifact? You are really going to let me pick any one?” Ning Xue voiced out her astonishment. On the other hand, Ning Wushuang was also shocked. Five supreme-grade spiritual artifacts were too alluring.

“Right right right. Pick any one you like!” Cheng Yu nodded.

“You said so yourself! I didn’t force it on you,” Ning Xue voiced out her excitement.

“Hmm…” Cheng Yu saw how quick Ning Xue had changed her expression. He felt that he had been duped! But now that words had already been put forth, it would be unreasonable for him to take it back, right?
