Zhao Rucheng had met many women in his life.
He didn't need to do anything. He only needed to look at them and he could easily capture their hearts.
He didn't even need to look at them. He only needed to take off his mask, and many women would throw themselves at him like moths to a flame.
He had never used his heart.
In this world, nothing was permanent.
From a person to a country, gratitude and grudges, from love to love, everything was the same.
He only wanted to live a slightly drunk life.
He couldn't be too drunk, and he couldn't look at things too seriously.
If he was too drunk, no one in this world would ever remember those things, those people, those past …
If he looked too seriously … how could he live on?
There was a limit to human strength. The smarter a person was, the clearer they could see the truth of the world, so they were more pessimistic.
In a small city, he could make a few friends. Among his friends, the most promising one was nothing more than the city lord of this small city. Perhaps it was in the Criminal Division, perhaps it was teaching in the Dao College, or perhaps it was in the city guards …
If there was any trouble, he would secretly solve it.
He had an inexhaustible amount of wealth in this small city, maintained a mediocre cultivation base, drank wine, and killed bandits.
Occasionally, he would be tyrannical, and sometimes he would "root out the strong and help the weak, and be chivalrous."
He would live his life like this, peacefully and happily with these people.
That was what he thought, and that was what he did.
But some people didn't agree.
Some people … damn it, they didn't even agree to this!
Zhao Rucheng's handsome face was hidden under the bronze mask.
His mood was hidden in those peach blossom-like, beautiful eyes.
These were affectionate eyes.
Although he didn't have any extra feelings.
At this moment, he looked at Helian Yunyun.
Looking at Helian Yunyun's smile.
He had met many women, and he would meet more women.
But perhaps he would never have such a smile again. It left such a deep impression on him.
Perhaps it was just because tonight, he …
Was too weak!
"Can I?" Zhao Rucheng asked.
He looked at Helian Yunyun seriously, which was rare. "I mean, Jin Ge is the son of Jin Tandu, the Master of Iron Stupa. Yuwen Duo helping me can be considered a competition between them. If you step in, won't the Iron Stupa become unstable? "
Helian Yunyun looked back at him with a smile. Her pair of pale azure eyes seemed to pierce through the thick bronze mask. "You look really good when you're serious. Uh, I mean … you have a lot of substance!"
Zhao Rucheng was speechless.
"That …" Yuwen Duo walked out of the tent. "Actually, this matter …"
Helian Yunyun glanced at him indifferently.
"You guys can slowly communicate about this matter," Yuwen Duo swallowed his words and smiled innocently, "I'm quite busy, so I'll take my leave first."
There was a gust of wind under his feet, and as soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared.
Only then did Helian Yunyun look at Zhao Rucheng with a smile on her face. She asked again, "Are you concerned about me?"
Zhao Rucheng was very good at dealing with these things, so of course he wasn't shy.
However, he wasn't in the mood to go with the flow.
"I'm just afraid that you're too naive and think too simply of some things. Although you have a noble status, you can't help with everything. He might not be as free as Yuwen Duo. "
Helian Yunyun blinked her smiling eyes. "From now on, you're even cuter in my eyes."
She put her hands behind her back and looked at Zhao Rucheng. "There are some things I can't tell you right now. However, what I can tell you is that the decision to replace Jin Ge at the Yellow River Meeting won't affect my Helian Clan at all. Of course, the premise is that you're really stronger than Jin Ge. "
Zhao Rucheng looked at her deeply and then said, "I think my confidence is as much as yours."
Helian Yunyun said, "Then why not just pick a day …"
After fighting for so long in the desolate border, Zhao Rucheng wasn't afraid of fighting at all. He was already prepared to fight Jin Ge, so he took a step forward and walked out.
"Let's get engaged today!"
Zhao Rucheng almost staggered.
Helian Yunyun covered her mouth and laughed. "I'm just joking with you."
Zhao Rucheng let out a sigh of relief and continued walking out.
Helian Yunyun walked a few steps to his side and said, "I'm the princess of the Great Mu Empire. Of course I can't get engaged so carelessly. No matter what, you have to drive ten thousand cows, ten thousand sheep, ten thousand bolts of cloth, call a few heroes to accompany you, and welcome me grandly, right? "
Zhao Rucheng: …
Right now, he only wanted to fight Jin Ge.
"Alright, alright …" Helian Yunyun waved her hand like she was coaxing a child. "Let's go, this princess will take you to find Jin Ge."
In the July wind of the Riverview Platform, the two of them walked out side by side.
After tonight's interruption, the two sides seemed to have become more familiar — before, it was only Helian Yunyun who became familiar with him.
Zhao Rucheng had always buried his emotions deep and tried very hard to act normal.
Tonight was no exception.
He asked casually, "Right, why are you here today?"
Helian Yunyun said with a smile, "I'm looking for Yuwen Duo."
Of course, she wouldn't say that she heard that Zhao Rucheng came to drink wine with Yuwen Duo and specially came to "catch him in the act".
Zhao Rucheng said, "Then …"
"It's fine now!" Helian Yunyun was obviously in a good mood. Her voice was like a silver bell swaying in the wind.
It was almost as if she was saying, "The only thing I'm looking for Yuwen Duo for is you."
"I have a question." Zhao Rucheng quickly changed the topic and asked, "Your Highness Yun, with your noble status, don't you have anything to do every day?"
"Of course I came to find you after I'm done!" Helian Yunyun said proudly. "Don't worry! I, Helian Yunyun, am ambitious, not someone who is obsessed with beauty. "
Zhao Rucheng looked …
Indeed, he seemed to be very ambitious.
"Let's talk about Jin Ge," Zhao Rucheng said.
"Okay!" Helian Yunyun was very cooperative.
"What kind of person is he?"
"He's much worse than you!"
"… How about we talk about something I don't know?"
"Then let's talk about Cang Yun?"
Cang Yun, the Oracle of the Modern World, was indeed a legendary and mysterious figure.
He was the number one Tianjiao under the age of 30 in the Mu Kingdom. Zhao Rucheng had been in the Mu Kingdom's team for so long, but he had never seen him once.
He was just casually changing the topic and didn't intend to get any information from Jin Ge. He wanted to win this spot with his strength so that he wouldn't owe Helian Yunyun too much.
So he said, "Okay."
Helian Yunyun immediately said, "He's a little better looking than Jin Ge, but not as good-looking as you."
Zhao Rucheng had a headache. "Your Highness Yun, can you be more specific?"
Helian Yunyun thought for a moment and said, "Cang Yun is about eleven times better looking than Jin Ge, but thirty-one to thirty-three times worse than you."
It was really very specific …
There were even fluctuations in space!
Zhao Rucheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
But …
He followed Helian Yunyun and walked forward in the night.
He reached out and gently pressed his hand to his heart.
The sadness in his heart seemed to have eased a little.
