CHAPTER 1038: 1115: HOW COME YOU RUN FASTER THAN A RABBIT?

Lan Gu’s cheeks flushed bright red all of a sudden.

"You... how could you..." She was truly both embarrassed and ashamed!!

An older wife with a younger husband is quite common in the Dayuan Dynasty. However, regardless of what those women outside think, she personally has strong aversion towards the idea of "marrying a man young enough to be her son."

After all, she wasn’t a casual person, otherwise she wouldn’t have remained single after the deaths of her husbands, whether life was at its peak or in decline. It was fate, and not until she met Chris did her heart begin to change some of her ideas.

Chris maintained a serious expression and emphasized, "I am serious!!"

He began to confess, "Lan, you should know, my parents passed away when I was very young. I was raised by my uncle, but he also passed away a few years ago. I have no ties in my original country, and driven by the longing for the East, I came to the Eastern Land to develop myself. I don’t care about others’ opinions, I truly want to marry you! Or you can marry me, that’s fine too. What matters is that I hope we can be together!"

Lan Gu’s face remained intensely hot, this man was really too bold. Men in Dayuan are usually more reserved, even if they are madly in love, they would at most shyly express it. No one would be as straightforward as Chris, so blunt, and direct.

Has he ever thought about what he would do if I rejected him?

Chris rambled on a long while, and continued afterward; the summary of it all was just one thing—he liked Lan Gu and wanted to marry her or have her marry him as his wife, and his "dowry" had already been brought over, which was his sincerity, offering all his assets to be managed by Lan Gu.

Lan Gu found it hard to handle his blunt personality, and in addition to being suddenly "proposed to" by Chris, her mature maiden heart was extremely shy, so she blushed and said, "Let me consider it, I’ll give you an answer tomorrow."

Chris’s eyes sparkled brightly as if afraid she’d regret it, he immediately sprinted outside, shouting as he ran, "You said it! I’m off! I’ll come tomorrow for your answer!!"

Lan Gu was stunned.

How does he run faster than a rabbit?

Could it be that she’s been tricked by this boy, was his previous straightforwardness all a facade, just to set her up and make her say that?

She felt she had seen the truth, and laughed saying, "This impudent boy!"

Afterward, she seriously gave it thought.

Marriage is not to be trifled with.

Marrying someone younger than her, and moreover from Fanbang, is this... really possible?

While Lan Gu was troubled by this matter, on the other side, Chris joyfully rushed out of the Blue mansion with a heart full, his smile nearly reaching his ears.

Tomorrow, tomorrow.

Let time pass quickly, if he were God, he’d turn the clock to make today into tomorrow. This is truly a sweet torment!

But just then.

"Chris!!"

Suddenly someone shouted Chris’s name, Chris instinctively turned around, and saw William’s face full of terror. At the same moment, he seemed to see William’s mouth moving, and then...

With a puff.

A poisoned sharp arrow shot through his chest!!
