As one of the parties involved, Chu Chen looked at the two women who were exchanging flirtatious glances with each other as if they were talking in riddles. When Elder Lingxin disappeared, he finally couldn't help but ask softly, "Senior Sister, what were you talking about?"
"Uh … nothing …"
Looking at Chu Chen's innocent face, Qing Yue stomped her feet, and a complicated expression suddenly flashed through her clear eyes. She cursed in a low voice and turned to leave.
Chu Chen vaguely heard her whisper something about Elder Lingxin being too reckless. When he was about to ask, Qingyue had already walked far away. He couldn't help but shake his head.
He really didn't know what happened between these two women. They were acting so strangely.
And Elder Lingxin was indeed young. It was very likely that she was in her twenties to thirties. She was a top-grade beauty in all aspects.
Since they didn't explain, Chu Chen didn't want to think too much about it. Thinking that he hadn't refined elixirs for a few days to exchange for spirit stones, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He hurriedly threw himself into the intense work of refining elixirs.
Refining the Beauty Elixir had become a habit of opening the furnace. In addition, he also refined some Snow Dragon Skin Refining Elixirs for his own cultivation.
After his cultivation had advanced to the second level of Lingshui, Chu Chen's quality and success rate of refining elixirs had decreased. This was only the batch refining of elixirs using the Furnace Refining Technique.
Now, Chu Chen's Taiyi Purple Blood Medicine Furnace was being upgraded in the Xu's Blacksmith Shop. Once the upgrade was completed, his refining skills would definitely improve greatly.
Thinking of this, the Taiyi Purple Blood Medicine Furnace and the rare Yin-Yang Jade Copper had been in the Xu's Blacksmith Shop for a few days. In another two days, the upgrade should be completed.
With this thought in mind, Chu Chen looked up at the sky and realized that it was already late. Unknowingly, he had refined elixirs for a day. He heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he stretched, he suddenly heard a voice behind him. "Chu Chen, come here for a moment."
Turning around, he saw Elder Lingxin standing 30 feet behind him and waving her hand slightly. His eyelids twitched fiercely. Elder Lingxin seemed to be a little different today. Looking closely, she was wearing a brand new pink dress, which made her devilish figure even more alluring.
Her usually bare-faced face was now covered with light makeup and rouge. Under the illumination of the lights, she appeared even more beautiful and charming.
Chu Chen's heart skipped a beat unconsciously. He walked up to Elder Lingxin and bowed. "Elder, what can I do for you?"
"I need your help in the next few days." Elder Lingxin hesitated for a moment and looked at Chu Chen with a complicated expression.
Hearing this, Chu Chen immediately broke out in a cold sweat. "Elder, you must be joking. If there's anything, just tell me. How would I dare to trouble you with the word 'please'?"
What a joke. In the past, Elder Lingxin would call him "Little Chu" directly. But today, she actually called him by his name respectfully and even used the word "please". This made Chu Chen shocked. This eccentric and beautiful elder wouldn't come up with another way to prank him, would she?
However, before Chu Chen could react, the beautiful elder's next sentence gently floated into his ears. Instantly, his whole body stiffened and he was dumbfounded!
Elder Lingxin's voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost inaudible. But in Chu Chen's ears, it was as if he had been struck by lightning. He was completely dumbfounded!
"I hope that you can become my fiancé."
This short sentence left Chu Chen dumbfounded. He was completely stunned on the spot. His mouth opened so wide that an egg could fit in it.
What? Fiancé??
Chu Chen felt that his brain must be damaged, or his ears must be damaged.
No matter how unbelievable it was, it could not be compared to the scene in front of him. What did the elder want to do? Be her fiancé? This, this, this … Was this a confession? Or was she forcing him to marry her? Was she proposing marriage?
But how could a woman propose marriage to a man?
Could it be that Elder Lingxin was old enough that her family forced her to marry him? This was not her style either.
Chu Chen's mind was completely in a mess. He had completely lost his ability to think.
"Haha, little devil."
Looking at Chu Chen's stunned face, Elder Lingxin smiled and glared at him with her beautiful eyes. "I'm not really asking you to become my fiancé. I'm just pretending for a period of time."
"Pretending?" Chu Chen was even more confused. Looking at Elder Lingxin's indifferent expression on her beautiful face, he could not think straight for a moment.
"A few days ago, I went out and met two … former friends." Elder Lingxin sighed slightly, with a trace of helplessness in her tone. "They've been pestering me for many years. In two days, they'll come over, and I plan to make them give up completely. So … you know, we have very few descendants. Besides Qingyue, you're the only male, so … "
"So …" Hearing Elder Lingxin's intermittent narration, Chu Chen finally understood what she meant. It turned out that this beautiful elder wanted to use him as a shield!
"So that's how it is. You scared me." Chu Chen wiped his sweat and relaxed. "What do you need me to do?"
"It's very simple. Pretend to be my fiancé. Just act like it." Seeing Chu Chen relax, Elder Lingxin also seemed to heave a sigh of relief. "Don't let them see any flaws. Just make them give up."
"Oh." Chu Chen nodded.
"Then let's do it." Elder Lingxin shook her head slightly and stretched out her slender hand.
"Do what?" Chu Chen was stunned for a moment. He still didn't understand what she meant.
"We have to give it a try." Elder Lingxin knocked on his forehead helplessly. "The relationship between sweethearts is definitely different from the relationship between master and disciple. If we don't act like it, they'll definitely be able to see through it at a glance. I don't want to be annoyed by them anymore. Let's try it first. Come, hold me and walk a few steps. "
As she spoke, she grabbed one of Chu Chen's arms and wrapped it around her willowy waist. "Yes, hold my waist like this. Relax your wrists! Why are you so stiff? You're holding your fiancé, not a demonic beast! "
She frowned slightly and spread out Chu Chen's fingers that were clenched into fists. Then, she straightened them one by one and stuck them to her lower abdomen.
"…"
Chu Chen's body stiffened instantly. His whole face turned red as if it was on fire.
