165: Chapter 158: What a Great Sense of Superiority 165: Chapter 158: What a Great Sense of Superiority She knew that her request to go to the snack street was sowhat capricious, a whimsical wish that Su Chen seed…
seed…
to indulge her in as if…
as if he was very indulgent toward her.
Thinking of the word ‘indulgent’, Nalan Qingcheng’s heartbeat quickened, and she stole a careful glance at Su Chen with her beautiful eyes.
Regrettably, Su Chen wasn’t looking at her.
Nalan Qingcheng lightly bit her lip, feeling a small sense of loss within her.
“What’s wrong with ?
Why are my emotions so unstable, and moreover, I…
I seem to really crave his attention!” Nalan Qingcheng thought to herself.
She was experiencing a fear of loss she had never felt before.
“Could it be that I’ve fallen for him?” Nalan Qingcheng asked herself, then hastily denied, “No, it can’t be that, I’m rely grateful to him, yes, I just feel he provides a sense of security, it’s not liking, definitely not liking…”
“Alright, it’s settled then, let’s go to Qingshui Street, the most famous snack street in Chengfeng City.
It’s also crowded during the dayti!” Su Chen decided and asked, “Assistant Wang, you can drive, right?”
Wang Yiqing nodded, “There are cars for rent at the Violet Hotel.”
“Then let’s go!”
Half an hour later.
Qingshui Street.
Su Chen and his party got out of the car.
Obviously, Nalan Qingcheng was very happy.
Beneath a duckbill cap, her stunning face and eyes, glistening like gems, were alive with excitent.
“So many people!” Nalan Qingcheng exclaid with a smile, “And such a great aroma of snacks!”
In the ti that followed, Nalan Qingcheng was like a girl discovering a new world, at tis buying a skewer of grilled squid, at tis enjoying a bowl of hot and sour rice noodles, and even having a cola.
Wang Yiqing felt frustrated, constantly reminding Nalan Qingcheng that street snacks weren’t very clean, could lead to stomach upset, and were bad for her skin.
Unfortunately, the reminders were to no avail.
Wang Yiqing could only look to Su Chen for help, but Su Chen just smiled faintly, not trying to restrain Nalan Qingcheng.
Instead, he seed more like a big brother taking his sister out for fun.
Besides indulgence, there was only indulgence.
Almost a morning passed…
Only then did Nalan Qingcheng end her trip to the snack street, a happy smile occasionally appearing on her pretty face.
“Su Chen, this morning has been the happiest I’ve ever been in my life!” Before leaving the snack street, Nalan Qingcheng looked up at Su Chen and spoke earnestly.
“You don’t need to suppress yourself, just do what you want.
The most important thing in life is to be carefree and happy!” Su Chen said solemnly, his mood a bit heavy.
Perhaps others envied Nalan Qingcheng for her beauty, background, and celebrity status, but in truth, she might not be living a happy life.
“Su Chen, you are really kind!” Nalan Qingcheng said the sa words she had uttered that morning.
After speaking, she shyly stared into Su Chen’s eyes, sustaining the gaze for a breath or two, then lowered her head again.
“Nalan Qingcheng, have you really fallen for him?
You can’t do this!!!
He already has a girlfriend!” Nalan Qingcheng told herself internally, “And he has not shown the slightest…”
During the previous night, she had been so scared that she had snuggled into Su Chen’s arms and even shared a bed with him, but from the beginning to the end, Su Chen hadn’t taken the slightest liberty with her.
This was enough to demonstrate his feelings for her…
“Isn’t everyone saying I’m the number one beauty of Anwu City?
Don’t they all say I possess the stunning beauty of Qingcheng?
Why then…” Nalan Qingcheng couldn’t help but obsess over these thoughts.
At the sa ti, while Nalan Qingcheng was lost in her wild thoughts.
Suddenly!
“Qingcheng…” a deep voice ca.
Nalan Qingcheng, Su Chen, and the others all subconsciously looked up.
What they saw was a middle-aged man, accompanied by two elders.
This middle-aged man was dressed in a black long outfit with a round hat, sparse eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and a square face.
He was around 175 cm tall.
He was a Martial Cultivator, a practitioner in the Middle Stage of the Mysterious Qi Inner Strength Realm.
He also exuded a very strong aura of soone from the Upper Realm Plane.
The two elders following him were both super powerful beings at the Peak of the Inner Strength Realm.
Su Chen’s gaze beca slightly more serious.
“Dad!” Nalan Qingcheng whispered.
“I’m sorry, Qingcheng, last night you were targeted by an assassin from the Martial Arts World, and not just any assassin but a notorious one from the Blood Fiend Pavilion.
The situation was too serious.
For your safety, I called the master!” Wang Yiqing said softly.
Initially, the possibility that Nalan Qingcheng might be targeted by an assassin from the Martial Arts World was considered the worst-case scenario.
Wang Yiqing had thought that the assassination attempt on Nalan Qingcheng wouldn’t really be that severe, which is why she agreed to Nalan Qingcheng’s suggestion to temporarily hire a bodyguard in Chengfeng City for protection.
But to their surprise…
Last night, an assassin from the Martial Arts World indeed ca to target Nalan Qingcheng.
She had no choice but to inform her father, Nalan Zheng, of the Nalan Family.
“What disgrace!
Instead of being a proper young miss, you insist on singing.
The old man indulged you, and that was fine; but now, you’ve even co to a place like the snack street!!!” Nalan Zheng’s expression turned ugly as he stepped forward and berated her loudly.
Su Chen frowned slightly, feeling sowhat uncomfortable.
What’s wrong with snack street?
Such a huge sense of superiority.
“I…I…Dad…” Nalan Qingcheng wanted to explain sothing, but Nalan Zheng cut her off directly, “Also, doesn’t the Nalan Family have guards and bodyguards?
Picking a random person is dangerous!
Do you know how many people are after you right now?
How can you be sure that he doesn’t have ulterior motives?”
As he spoke, Nalan Zheng gave Su Chen a glance, making no attempt to hide it.
“Dad, that’s not it, if it hadn’t been for Su Chen last night, I…
your daughter would already be dead!” Nalan Qingcheng countered with urgency and anger, raising her head to et Nalan Zheng’s gaze.
“You’re only fooling a naive girl like you.
How can you be sure that the assassin last night wasn’t this guy’s accomplice, putting on an act with you?” Nalan Zheng was exasperated, raising his voice considerably.
“Dad, you’re being unreasonable!” Tears started to form in Nalan Qingcheng’s beautiful eyes.
“Presumptuous!!!
Do you speak to your own father like that?” Nalan Zheng snorted, “Enough, no more nonsense.
Co back with , and from now on, stop associating with people of shady character!”
As he said this, he once again glanced at Su Chen: “Boy, know your place.
The Nalan Family is out of your league!”
“Dad, why are you so snobbish?
Must you think the worst of everyone?
Su Chen isn’t like what you think!” Nalan Qingcheng was truly angry now, glaring at Nalan Zheng with a face full of fury.
“Ha ha…” Nalan Zheng laughed with disdain, “Qingcheng, you’re young and uninterested in the affairs of the Nalan Family, only wanting to sing.
You have no idea what kind of existence the Nalan Family is, how many people are watching it, yearning and craving it…
You’re clueless about how many people want to target the Nalan Family through you.”
In the sa second, the silent Su Chen finally spoke up.
Without too many words, he t Nalan Zheng’s gaze calmly and simply said, “The Nalan Family?
What is that supposed to be?
Impressive, huh?
Edible?
Let tell you, if it weren’t for Qingcheng’s presence, this young master wouldn’t even bother glancing at the Nalan Family.
Do you believe that?”
