The Protagonist Stole My Spiritual Roots? The Heroine, Give Me a Good Birth!

43: Childhood sweetheart, rejectedSoon, the young girls of the Zhao Family came out one after another.

Each of them had Cultivation, so in terms of appearance, none were particularly bad. However, compared to First Madam Huang Meihua, there was still a slight gap.

The girls also looked at Chen Xuan with curiosity. Most of them were direct descendants of the Zhao Family, and generally, they would marry within the Family, rarely having a low-status son-in-law.

But this son-in-law was no ordinary person; he was actually choosing them!

It was predictable that even if one of them married Chen Xuan in the future, she would likely be serving him, rather than being served by him.

The girls were all very curious about Chen Xuan; some looked at him openly, while others were very shy, lowering their heads and not daring to look at him.

Only one girl, standing in the back row, was quietly sobbing!

Chen Xuan was a little curious and walked closer to take a look.

The girl was petite, looking to be about nineteen or twenty years old, dressed in a light green long dress with intricate patterns embroidered along the hem. Her long hair was neatly combed and gently tied with a sky-blue ribbon, revealing a delicate and refined face.

Looking at Chen Xuan, who was so close, her body trembled slightly from fear, like a startled Little Rabbit. Her eyes welled up with tears, filled with grievance and helplessness, making one feel a sudden surge of pity.

”Why are you crying?” Chen Xuan asked gently.

However, Zhao Wenwen was clearly frightened; her tears flowed even more profusely, but she dared not cry out loud.

”Zhao Wenwen, what are you doing?!” One of the middle-aged Elders roared. Clearly, that Zhao Wenwen was his daughter.

”Hmph, I really don’t know how you Cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Stage!” That Elder snorted, then looked at Chen Xuan, putting on a smiling face, ”Young friend, Wenwen is just shy, and she’s not crying because of you, please don’t misunderstand!”

”Enough!” Huang Meihua spoke, ”Let Chen Xuan choose for himself.”

Chen Xuan didn’t know the names of these girls, so he could only look at Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi quickly stepped forward and introduced, ”This is Zhao Ling’er. She is the youngest, only sixteen years old, but her talent is very high. She is already at Qi Refining seventh layer.”

Chen Xuan immediately frowned; he would not become a very ”punishable” person.

Then Zhao Yi pointed to a sweet-looking girl next to him. The girl was dressed in green, standing tall and graceful.

”This is Zhao Ya, nineteen years old this year, already at Qi Refining eighth layer.”

Chen Xuan nodded slightly.

Zhao Yi then pointed to a girl wearing a purple long dress with an arrogant demeanor.

”This is Zhao Rongrong, twenty-one years old this year, already at Qi Refining Perfection. Her talent is very good, and her personality is also very lively, though sometimes a bit willful.”

Finally, Zhao Yi pointed to the sobbing Zhao Wenwen, saying helplessly, ”This is Zhao Wenwen, nineteen years old this year, already at Foundation Establishment first layer. However, her personality is a bit soft and not strong enough.”

After listening to Zhao Yi’s introduction and understanding the relationships within the Zhao Family, Chen Xuan had a clear idea.

These girls were more or less related to Zhao Tianming, but the closest one was Zhao Wenwen, who had just shed tears; they could be said to be childhood sweethearts, growing up together since they were young.

Chen Xuan thought for a moment, then pointed to Zhao Wenwen and said, ”Her.”

Instantly, Zhao Wenwen stopped crying, her face full of shock.

The other girls were also full of shock, apparently not expecting Chen Xuan to choose the least cooperative Zhao Wenwen.

As for Zhao Wenwen’s father, his face was beaming with joy. He naturally hoped his daughter could marry Chen Xuan; that way, not to mention their Zhao Family, he himself didn’t know how much benefit he could gain!

Zhao Yi was also a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile, ”Good, then it’s settled. Chen Xuan, you two must get along well in the future!”

Chen Xuan smiled and said nothing.

”Wuwuwu, I, I don’t want to marry him!” Zhao Wenwen suddenly blurted out.

Her words were like a bombshell, shocking everyone present.

Zhao Yi’s face turned ashen with anger, and he sternly said, ”Zhao Wenwen, what nonsense are you talking about!”

Zhao Wenwen’s father, Zhao Jin’s face also turned ugly. He hadn’t expected Zhao Wenwen to dare to refuse, and in front of so many people at that.

”Wenwen, don’t be silly!” Zhao Jin said coldly, ”This is something the Clan Chief has decided. You have to marry whether you want to or not!”

Zhao Wenwen looked aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes. She looked at Chen Xuan and cried, ”You, why did you choose me?”

Chen Xuan smiled faintly and said, ”Because I find you pleasing to the eye.”

”You, you’re lying!” Zhao Wenwen cried even harder.

”You, how can you be like this! You clearly know I don’t like you, yet you still choose me!”

”So what?” Chen Xuan smiled faintly, ”I like you, that’s enough.”

”You!” Zhao Wenwen was so angry she couldn’t speak, only crying incessantly.

Seeing the unfavorable situation, Zhao Yi quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: ”Alright, stop crying, both of you. Chen Xuan, take Wenwen to rest. The wedding will be held tomorrow, and there are still many things to prepare!”

Chen Xuan, however, shook his head.

”Since Wenwen and I are not fated, let’s just drop this matter. I never like to force others; that way, no one will be happy.”

After speaking, Chen Xuan gently stroked Zhao Wenwen’s head to comfort her, then left.

Huang Meihua’s face was grim. She glanced at Zhao Jin: ”It’s all because of the good daughter you raised!” Then she motioned for Zhao Yi to quickly chase after him.

Zhao Yi also reacted and chased after him.

”My son-in-law, we didn’t explain clearly just now, making you witness a joke.”

Chen Xuan smiled and said, ”No matter. It seems Miss Zhao and I truly have fate but no destiny.”

Zhao Yi sighed and said, ”I’ve made my son-in-law laugh. Since she has eyes but fails to recognize Mount Tai, why doesn’t my son-in-law choose another? Our Zhao Family has many excellent girls!”

”Let’s forget about it. After looking around, only she is relatively suitable. The others won’t do.”

”This... Son-in-law, please wait a little longer and stay a few more days in my Zhao Family. We’ll go and do some work.”

”This... well, that’s fine. I’ll also wait for my confidant. However, I don’t like to force others. If it really doesn’t work out, then so be it. I heard the Gao family also...”

”Young friend, don’t worry, we will definitely talk to her and make it clear. There’s no need to go to the Gao family!”

”Alright, I’ll wait a bit longer then.”

...

That night, Zhao Wenwen knocked on Chen Xuan’s door.

”Miss Zhao, why have you come?” He was a little surprised, but then, after a thought, he was relieved.

He had already brought up the Zhao Family’s sworn enemy, the Gao family, so they would surely have to be efficient and keep him.
