<strong>Chapter 718: Chapter 0720: Willing or Not Willing</strong>


    When Chu Ge arrived, he heard the crisp and hearty voice of Nangong Man Sha. She was now wearing a bright red off-the-shoulder jumpsuit, looking even more sexy and charming.


    Chu Ge stood in the distance. Due to the presence of Nangong Man Sha, the area around the table was surrounded by too many people, almost threeyers inside and threeyers outside.


    Seeing this, Chu Ge felt that the piece ofnd he purchased was too small and should be further expanded.


    At this moment, Jian Chunqiu came over to Chu Ge leisurely, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “I really wish your old man could see you now, he would definitely be proud of you.”


    Chu Ge smiled and seeing Jian Chunqiu’s bulging pockets, couldn’t help but tease, “Uncle Jian, have you been bullying people again?”


    Jian Chunqiu chuckled, “How can you say bullying? They insisted on gambling with me, I couldn’t help it; you know, gambling on stones is just a piece of cake for people like us.”


    Chu Ge gently shook his head, not knowing what to say.


    Jian Chunqiu stood there, looking in the direction of Nangong Man Sha, and sighed with emotion, “Miss Man Sha is truly kind-hearted. The daughter of the head of the Six Major Families of the Capital City, yet she condescends to support your venue. Do you realize all these people are here for Nangong Man Sha? It would be troublesome if you and Miss Man Sha have a falling out one day.”


    Chu Ge pondered for a moment. Jian Chunqiu’s point was indeed true. Although today was lively with many people, they were all here for Nangong Man Sha. What if one day Nangong Man Sha isn’t here? Would the crowd still be asrge?


    Chu Ge thought for a while and felt this concern was somewhat unnecessary, after all, it hadn’t happened yet and thinking about it now was pointless.


    “Let’s talk about such matterster.”


    Chu Ge said.


    But Jian Chunqiu didn’t want to let it go, he said to Chu Ge, “If your old man were still around, he would definitely urge you to get married. You’re not getting any younger, it’s time to settle down. With a wife, the two of you could conduct dual cultivation, reaching higher realms. Moreover, you’re still so young, it would be a pity not to experience the joys and sorrows of life, the Four Great Joys of the human world.


    Although we ancient martial artists normally live a hundred or two hundred years, still, there are life experiences that should be had at the appropriate age rather than adhering to your family patriarch’s notion of prioritizing cultivation.


    Jian Chunqiu spoke earnestly to Chu Ge; his intention was very simple, which was to encourage Chu Ge to ept Nangong Man Sha. However, for Chu Ge, he and Nangong Man Sha were from two different worlds, the least likely match.


    Their current rtionship was actually quite good, both parties having their own needs met.


    Nangong Man Sha needed his help with treating her father’s illness, and Chu Ge needed the influence of the Nangong Family to establish a firm footing in the Capital City.


    “Uncle Jian, it seems you haven’t met my fiancée yet?” Chu Ge suddenly asked, interrupting Jian Chunqiu.


    Jian Chunqiu was stunned. He looked at Chu Ge nkly and asked, “What are you talking about? What fiancée?”


    Chu Ge smiled, “My fiancée, you haven’t met her yet, have you?”


    Jian Chunqiu was utterly befuddled, “When did you have a fiancée?”


    Chu Ge cleared his throat, “This was arranged by the old man quite a long time ago.”


    “Betrothal since childhood?” Jian Chunqiu asked curiously.


    Chu Ge nodded, “Something like that.”


    “This is what era? I’ve always said that the old man’s ideas shouldn’t be listened to or learned. Have you even met this girl? How does she look? What is her family background like? Anyway, I don’t trust your old man’s judgment, it’s terrible. You know, people should aim high; not to mention far and beyond, just looking around the Capital City, who canpare to Miss Man Sha?”


    Chu Ge always felt that Jian Chunqiu was a bit odd, because he never asked about such matters before, but since he came to the Capital City, he started talking more about this topic and would seize any opportunity to instill his ideas into Chu Ge’s ear.


    Chu Ge always felt that Jian Chunqiu seemed to be hiding something from him.


    “Uncle Jian, what’s wrong with youtely? Why do you always want to match me and Miss Man Sha?” Chu Ge asked, expressing his confusion.


    Jian Chunqiu was taken aback, then awkwardly coughed, “Who said I always do that.”


    Chu Ge looked straight into his eyes and asked again, “Uncle Jian, you definitely have something hidden from me!”


    The certainty in his tone made a person who was over a hundred and twenty years old feel somewhat guilty.


    Jian Chunqiu always considered himself to be very strong mentally, but somehow, he always faltered in front of Chu Ge.


    Jian Chunqiu sighed and then nodded, speaking earnestly to Chu Ge, “Actually, there is something I’ve been hiding from you, but this matter isn’t harmful to you, you should know that I do this for your good.”


    Chu Ge looked suspiciously at him, “How so? Is it rted to my cultivation?


    If not, Jian Chunqiu would never be so earnest about matching him with Nangong Man Sha. It must be beneficial to his cultivation.


    As Chu Ge thought, Jian Chunqiu indeed felt that the union between Nangong Man Sha and Chu Ge would greatly benefit Chu Ge’s cultivation. Having gotten to know and observe Nangong Man Sha, he believed that she cared deeply for him and liked him a lot, which is why he sought to bring them together.


    Chu Ge looked puzzled at Jian Chunqiu, “Or is it that you know something?”


    Seeing Chu Ge so eager to know, Jian Chunqiu finally couldn’t help but speak, “Actually, it’s nothing big, it’s just that I discovered Miss Man Sha has an Innate Pulse, but there are two types, a true lifeless veins and a false lifeless veins. The true lifeless veins have a short lifespan, seeking medical help everywhere is futile.


    But the false lifeless veins are different, the channels of such a person can be opened with True Qi, and the pulse of such individuals is very pure, making them natural prodigies in ancient martial arts. That’s why I strive to bring you two together, because if you perform Dual Cultivation with her, the improvement in your martial arts, and your cultivation enhanced by Crystal Jade, will have no impurities whatsoever.”
