Marriage?
City Lord Wenyuan's heart thumped.
A look of deep hesitation flashed across his face.
Marquis Wolf Officer was his most capable general.
Many cities wanted to poach it away.
In order to win him over, City Lord Wenyuan naturally did everything he could.
But among these abandoned cities, Wenyuan City was one of the weaker ones.
What he could afford, other cities could offer double or even ten times more.
The reason why Marquis Wolf Officer hadn't been poached away was because of the Wolf Officer.
It was because he had taken a fancy to Wenyuan City Lord's daughter.
Because of her, he was willing to stay.
Of course, he didn't stay for nothing. Instead, he asked to be engaged to his daughter.
In truth, City Lord Wenyuan was extremely unwilling.
Marquis Wolf Officer was about the same age as him, so he could definitely be Wen Cheng's father.
How could City Lord Wenyuan be willing to marry his daughter?
Unfortunately, Profound Literature City needed Marquis Wolf Officer.
Thus, City Lord Wenyuan agreed against his will.
All these years, Marquis Wolf Officer had been urging her to get married.
However, he had always been thinking of ways to evade it, hoping that this day would come later.
"It is still too early to talk about marriage," City Lord Wenyuan said. "Let Wencheng grow up a bit more."
Marquis Wolf Officer frowned, took out a secret letter, and placed it on the table.
"This is?" City Lord Wenyuan said thoughtfully.
Marquis Wolf Officer said indifferently, "City Lord will know once you take a look."
City Lord Wenyuan had a bad premonition. His master tore apart Xinjian.
After reading the contents of the letter, Zhang Xuan was infuriated.
The letter was a recruitment letter that the First City's governor had handed to Marquis Wolf Officer.
The recruitment condition was to betroth his daughter to the Marquis of Wolf County.
As long as Marquis Lang Guan was willing to join them, he could immediately marry his daughter.
Marquis Lang Guan raised his teacup and said indifferently: "Although I am deeply in love with Miss Wen Cheng, there is a limit to a person's patience. If the City Lord has no intention of marrying Miss Wen Cheng to me, then I have no reason to reject his good intentions."
Hearing this.
City Lord Wenyuan's heart tightened. After some thought, he said, "I would like to ask Wencheng's opinion on this matter. How about it?"
He had no other choice.
He could only agree.
But before he agreed, he had to first ask for Wen Cheng's opinion.
"Then hurry up. I must marry Wen Cheng within a month, otherwise …" Marquis Wolf Officer didn't continue.
But the meaning was clear.
He could no longer risk his life for a woman with no future in sight and for Profound Literature City.
"I understand." City Lord Wenyuan stood up and went to find Wen Cheng to have a heart-to-heart talk.
"Wait." Marquis Wolf Officer suddenly remembered and took out two books, one black and one white, from his bosom: "This time I found two books, give them to Wen Cheng."
City Lord Wenyuan nodded.
Wen Cheng liked to read books the most.
But what the broken civilization lacked the most was books.
Wen Cheng should like these two books.
He arrived at the backyard.
City Lord Wenyuan knocked on the door.
"Wen Cheng, open the door. It's me. Father wants to talk to you."
"Don't talk about it, don't talk about it!" Wen Cheng's coquettish voice came from inside, "Father doesn't love me anyway."
City Lord Wenyuan felt guilty.
He felt a stabbing pain in his heart.
If there was a choice, who would be willing to give their daughter to an old man to defile?
But he had no other choice!
Hearing this, he silently put down the two books.
With his hands clasped behind his back, he left in loneliness.
After a long time of silence, Wen Cheng opened the door.
Seeing the lonely back view of her father walking with his head lowered, she could not help but bite her lips, her eyes filled with self-blame.
"I knew that father had to work very hard to maintain the city, so why did I have to be unreasonable?" She suddenly saw the two books on the ground.
She could not help but pick them up.
"Biography of Su Yu, Biography of the Sinful Girl?" Her attention was once again attracted by these two books.
"Su Yu, Sinful Girl? Who is it? I've never even heard of it, yet you have the cheek to write a biography? "Wen Cheng wrinkled her cute nose.
She casually threw the two books away.
But before she threw them away, she could not bear to.
"Sigh, I haven't seen a new book in a long time! Forget it, I'm just reading to pass the time, "Wen Cheng muttered to herself.
She brought the two books back into the house and placed them on the study table.
"The white one, the black one, which one should I read first?" Wen Cheng raised her eyebrows.
Finally, she chose to open the white one.
"Biography of Su Yu. Hmm, let's see what you did in your life to have the cheek to write a biography." Wen Cheng flipped it open, casually looking through it.
But with one look, she could not help but be attracted.
"Shenyue Island? What is that place? There are mountains, water, and even the sky? It looks very beautiful! "
"How could this Su Yu be so foolish? In order to save his father-in-law, he actually went to the imperial capital alone to participate in some competition?"
"Xia Jingyu is really beautiful and kind, but Qin Xianer is cute and loyal. Who should Su Yu choose?"
"How could this Su Yu be so fickle! He actually flirted between the two of them! "
"Sigh! In the end, he still chose Qin Xianer! Xia Jingyu is so pitiful! "
"Sob sob sob … Xianer actually died! And so many good girls, all dead … "
As she read on, she could not help but shed tears.
She was deeply immersed in the ups and downs of the story.
Reading the biography, it was like experiencing Su Yu's happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy.
When she stopped crying, she realized that it was already dawn.
One look and she realized that it had been an entire night.
She forgot to eat and sleep, continuing to read.
But when she flipped to the next page, it was gone!
"Why is it gone?" Wen Cheng opened her eyes wide, angrily slamming the table. "Damn it, I was at the most exciting moment, why is it gone?"
She had been excited, but there was no more!
"Damn it, who wrote this book? Don't let me know, or I will definitely send you a kitchen knife!" Wen Cheng was furious.
Then, she looked at the last black book.
With a thought, he said, "These two books should be related, right?"
She immediately flipped open the black book, but to her disappointment, there was no connection between the two.
This book described the life of the sinful woman.
"So boring! This woman called sinful woman, does she only know how to cultivate? No love, only a teacher called Yun Yazi, so boring! "
She closed the book, once again flipping through the white book.
She could not help but want to read it again, to review the details that she had missed.
Who knew.
Just as she was about to open it.
The book actually burst into flames.
"Ah! It's on fire! "Wen Cheng immediately used her body to try and extinguish the flames.
It was obvious how much she cherished the book.
She actually used her body to suppress the fire.
But the flames still mercilessly burned the white book into ashes.
Wen Cheng looked at the ashes on the table, her eyes brimming with tears. "My book! My Su Yu's Biography! "
But, she continued to cry and cry.
The ashes were blown by the wind, actually condensing into a human figure in midair.
Then, it transformed into a clear woman.
The woman's features were like a painting, her beauty out of this world, as if she had walked out of a painting.
As a woman, Wen Cheng could not help but be captivated by her stunning appearance.
But then, she suddenly became frightened, her eyes wide. "A person … ran out from the book?"
