Not long after, Kong Baihe came back.
He told Gu Yuan that Du Bin had gone to Xing Jikai to discuss marriage, while Xing Ruyu followed behind and continued to curse.
Since they were looking for Xing Jikai, it would definitely be inappropriate for Kong Baihe to follow him.
In fact, Gu Yuan really didn't expect that Du Bin could refuse to admit the blame.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Du Bin at the beginning, he could still break the lower limit again and again.
"This is really a talent..." Gu Yuan said with emotion.
"I quite envy him. If I could have such a thick skin, I would have a lot less trouble in life." Kong Baihe said with a shrug.
Many times he would think that the world has always been unfair, and the thicker the skin, the more advantageous the person.
"By the way, are you really planning to learn swordsmanship from Uncle Xingsan?"
"Yeah." Gu Yuan nodded.
"Does that mean we need to ask Captain Li for his opinion first?" Kong Baihe asked curiously.
He felt that if Gu Yuan wanted to learn swordsmanship from Xing Kui, he would have to spend a lot of time in the Star Reaching Sect. During this time, Li Siming would definitely stay.
This will directly affect their next itinerary, and it is necessary for Gu Yuan to discuss this decision with Li Siming.
Gu Yuan glanced at Kong Baihe, smiled and shook his head: "No, it's not necessary."
"Hey! You really hit the mark!" Kong Baihe gave Gu Yuan a thumbs up.
I, Brother Yuan, really don’t take Li Siming seriously!
Gu Yuan didn't explain anything.
He knew very well that the ultimate purpose of Li Siming taking him to travel around and solve the demon realm was to increase Gu Yuan's knowledge, consolidate and steadily improve his strength, and accumulate more combat experience.
And Gu Yuan wanted to stay and learn the Nine-Tune Chain Slash from Xing Kui, just to improve his own strength.
When Li Siming found out, he had to support it with both hands, and he would definitely not vote against it.
at the same time.
Du Bin and Xing Ruyu were already sitting in front of Xing Jikai.
Xing Jikai drank tea and played chess with Li Siming.
Seeing Du Bin and Xing Ruyu coming, Li Siming put down the chess pieces in his hand.
"Since Master Xing has family matters to deal with, I will go back first."
"No, no, no." Xing Jikai stopped Li Siming, then looked at Du Bin and Xing Ruyu, his expressions were not very good.
He placed the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard and said, "Xiaobin, why did you come to me?"
Just as Du Bin was about to speak, Xing Ruyu spoke first: "Grandpa, this guy..."
Before he finished speaking, he was scolded by Xing Jikai.
"I'm asking Xiaobin, not you!"
Xing Ruyu curled her lips in frustration.
Du Bin is determined!
He knew that in the Star Reaching Sect, Xing Ji Kai kept his word.
As long as Xing Jikai nods, the engagement between him and Xing Ruyu will be concluded.
So he quickly said: "Grandpa Xing, actually, the reason why I came here this time is for my marriage with Ruyu. We have also said before, do you think we need to give a date..."
After saying that, he looked at Xing Jikai eagerly.
Xing Jikai was slightly startled and asked doubtfully: "Marriage?"
Du Bin's heart skipped a beat.
Xing Jikai chuckled lightly and said, "You kid, you really have a bad memory. Have you forgotten everything yesterday?"
When Du Bin heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly thought something was wrong.
Xing Ruyu looked at his grandfather in surprise, as if he couldn't believe that these words came from his grandfather's mouth.
After all, before this, Xing Jikai's attitude was very resolute. He would not listen to his son and daughter-in-law's words and insisted on having his own way.
There is nothing anyone can do.
But now, Xing Jikai's attitude has changed.
The happiest person is of course Xing Ruyu.
"Xiao Bin, I actually know why you challenged Gu Yuan yesterday. The result is obvious. Let alone defeating Gu Yuan, you didn't even last ten minutes." Xing Jikai sighed and turned to look at Du coast.
At this moment, Du Bin's face had turned the color of pig liver.
Of course he guessed that Xing Jikai already knew.
But he originally thought that as long as he didn't admit to this matter, Xing Jikai would turn a blind eye and pretend he didn't know anything.
"Grandpa Xing, I..."
"Actually, I was very satisfied with you originally, but now, this is your own decision, and I can't help it." Xing Jikai sighed and said, "Silly boy, I haven't figured it out yet. , why did you agree to such a bet?"
"I, I..." Du Bin also fell into deep thought.
yes.
As long as Xing Jikai agrees, no matter how others object, it is meaningless. Why do I need to do this more?
Soon, he also figured it out.
He wanted Xing Ruyu to marry him willingly, otherwise, he always felt that he was being hot-tempered and worried about being laughed at when he returned to the Du family.
Secondly, he didn't expect that he really couldn't last ten minutes.
Gu Yuan looks so young, and he is still an extraordinary person. He has not even become an extraordinary person for a long time.
Who would have thought that the other party's strength would be so strong. Not to mention himself, even Xing Kui would not be his opponent?
If he could turn back time, he would definitely not take the risk, but now, he knows that he has lost his last chance.
"Of course, this is the decision made by you young people. I don't have much to say. I can only say it's a pity, hey..." Xing Jikai sighed.
Du Bin was still a little unwilling to give up. He gritted his teeth and said with red eyes, "Grandpa Xing, my side is fine, but my grandpa's side..."
"You don't have to worry about this." Xing Jikai laughed and said, "I already edited a letter last night and sent it to your grandfather. I explained the matter in detail in the letter. You Grandpa will understand."
At this moment, Du Bin was completely heartbroken.
To be precise, he was already a little scared at this time!
The marriage between the Du family and the Star Reaching Sect was something he had begged his grandfather for a long time before his grandfather reluctantly agreed. It was considered a brave act.
After all, their current status in the Du family is not very high. When the old man passes away, Du Bin will probably be completely marginalized.
The old man is still alive, so it is reasonable to leave a way out for his grandson.
But now, what was already a certainty was dismissed as Du Bin's temporary confusion...
He didn't even know how to face the Du family!
He originally wanted to shift the responsibility to the Star Reaching Sect, but Xing Ji Kai seemed to be able to do calculations and did calculations. He even revised a letter and sent it to the Du family in advance. This blocked his way. !
At this moment, Du Bin only felt that his hands and feet were cold.
"Xiao Bin, if there is nothing else, you should go back and rest first. It seems that your injury is not healed yet. Stay for two more days and don't leave in a hurry." Xing Jikai's voice seemed gentle, but Du Bin But you can hear a sense of alienation from it.
Before, Xing Jikai regarded him as a descendant, the grandson of an old friend, but now, he regarded him as a... young master of the Du family, nothing more!
