The Immortal Fire

Chapter 16: Lantern Festival 2

The event was conducted by hikmad. Guests are treated to a variety of entertainment, ranging from dancing, playing musical instruments, and performing acrobatics.

Meanwhile Liu Ying, Fang Yao and Jia Li did not pay attention at all throughout the event. They just feel anxious, they can not calm down considering their actions will begin in a moment.

"I sweat," Liu Ying whispered in Fang Yao's ear, but could still be heard by Jia Li due to Liu Ying's position sitting between the two friends.

"I even want to pee, did Elder Zhou face any obstacles?" fang Yao's cheering-up reply lowered her voice.

The residence hall was quite crowded, so the chatter of the three friends would not attract attention.

Liu Ying smiled forcedly, "Is that my business? Absolutely shameless."

"Of course."

Jia Li laughed at their argument, "Lao Yao, speaking to a girl is very disrespectful. No girl likes you."

"First, I don't talk to a girl but two. Second, Liu'er likes me. Isn't that right, Liu'er?" fang Yao's Kekew.

"In your dreams!"

Fang Yao and Jia Li laughed, then Fang Yao continued his chatter again.

"Look at that, Young Master Song is apparently not only talented in the field of literature, he is also quite proficient in playing music" Fang Yao said as he chewed through various cakes presented on the table.

"What's that good?"

"Yes, Liu'er. There is absolutely no good," Fang Yao added.

Jia Li sighed, "Liu'er, Young Master Song is the dream type of all girls. Especially now that he's in search of a Niang Zi, if it's me."

"Very unattractive, how can a man humiliate himself by playing music on stage? A questionable identity," Liu Ying casually said.

"You're not a normal girl!" ketus Jia Li while elbowing Liu Ying.

Jia Li was swept away in his delusion of becoming a young Mistress Song. According to Liu Ying, such praise was too excessive, very different from what Liu Ying saw.

At the altar, Young Master Song was playing Guqin gracefully. His name was Song Jun, the first son of the great Song family. Being in the year of looking for a future wife, that is why she specifically appeared to fill the celebration event.

"Silly!" liu Ying said lazily, he subconsciously said that in a rather loud voice.

As soon as the young man stopped his play and looked at Liu Ying, everyone who was there also looked at him, causing the girl to be confused.

"What?" he asked with an innocent expression.

Xi Guan closed his eyes restraining emotions. His granddaughter was really disrespectful, it would humiliate him and the entire sect. But the old man did not speak up, but listened to their conversation.

The guests from outside the city were rather curious about Liu Ying, they also chose to listen, hoping for someone to explain the girl's identity.

Liu Ying's appearance was unique. Some people looked amazed, some were even annoyed and considered him to have no manners.

The Young Master Song stood up from sitting cross-legged, "Sorry before, did Miss have a little suggestion?"

Liu Ying knew very well that the man had heard their conversation since earlier, "Your hearing is quite good. Besides you've heard my opinion, I don't have any advice for you."

"Miss is too condescending, actually I hope Miss can give advice. I see the type of dream Miss has of a man is quite unique" Song Jun said meaningfully.

Liu Ying laughed crisply, "There's nothing to fix, I think it'll be better if a man is more powerful."

Liu Ying suppressed his intonation at the word 'Powerful', it was obvious that he was insinuating the man.

Enough was enough, Xi Guan already couldn't bear Liu Ying's indecency, Xi Guan stood up.

"Let me interrupt."

"I'm sorry to everyone here, sorry for the sassness of my sect. I hope that you guys do not mind this small matter," Xi Guan said melted the atmosphere.

Guests who had been tense finally became normal again.

"Please, Chief Cheng." Mayor Wen Chen.

"Previously let me introduce this granddaughter of mine, she was indeed a little wilder than the other girls." joked Xi Guan.

Whispers began to sound, some were angry, some were astonished.

"Chairman Cheng, I just found out that you have a granddaughter. Wasn't my son killed in the Blood River tragedy?"

Xi Guan sighed, "This matter is indeed only known by a few parties. After all my grandson is not talented so it is not worthy to be shown in the martial world."

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed myself" Xi Guan continued while enduring the embarrassment.

Hearing that mayor Wen chuckled amusedly, "Master Song, the people around Lianhua city must have known about the Sect Chief's granddaughter who often did mischief."

Surely the mayor knew clearly about that big boy Cheng, who did not know the only grandson of the Cheng family in this Lianhua city? After all, the mayor also had special access to the sect so he made frequent visits to accompany Xi Guan to play chess. Moreover, they are very close friends.

"Luckily the Sect Chief's son still had time to give a talented and cute descendant like Young Miss Cheng" the mayor continued proudly.

Master Song looked in admiration at Liu Ying, he had been in the spotlight there.

Meanwhile, Song Jun had no intention of continuing his truncated conversation. He approached his father and whispered something.

Master Song nodded after hearing it, I don't know what the young man said. They were smiling when they looked at Liu Ying.

"Let's sit back and talk casually." Song Fan said.

The servants swiftly poured over the drink, Fang Yao and Jia Li were even astonished.

"Chairman Cheng, it looks like your grandson fits the couple criteria for my Son. What do you think?" continue Song Fan again.

Some girls looked grim, Jia Li looked at Liu Ying in disbelief. Don't forget Gu Xiulei's expression upon hearing that. Unlike the case with Fang Yao, he chose to walk out of the room.

Xi Guan's forehead puckered, "It seems like our conversation has already gotten into a serious topic."

"It's not that, it's just that my son seems to be interested in Young Miss Cheng. Isn't family life good?" persuade Song Fan.

Having a kinship with one of the ten families considered to have an important position in the Wei empire was an honor, even almost everyone dreamed of it. But with Xi Guan, it was impossible.
