Chapter 338 Want a man? Are you crazy?
"You..." Luo Shiyu took a tentative step forward and then stepped back.
"Just say what you want to say. Don't worry, I won't eat you." Jiangnan said and sat next to the beauty again, deliberately keeping a distance from Luo Shiyu. Retreating in order to advance is her current tactic.
Luo Shiyu adjusted her skirt, knelt down slowly, and prayed, "Please bless me so that I can marry the best man in the world."
Jiangnan frowned slightly and said "Hmm?"
Luo Shiyu's voice cracked, "What?" He strode over to Luo Shiyu, squatted down, stretched out two fingers, pointed at his eyes, and demanded, "Say it again! Look into my eyes and say it again! What is your wish?"
Luo Shiyu thought Jiangnan didn't hear clearly, so she repeated her wish.
Luo Shiyu rolled his eyes and pinched his philtrum to stop himself from fainting from anger.
"You're crazy! You're really crazy! You want power, money, what else can't you want? You want a man? Don't I know whether men are good or not? I am a man! Be obedient, dear! We don't want men. All men in the world are unreliable, including your son!"
"Ha~ I'm so angry! When you become powerful, you can have any man you want? On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, you can have two men sleep with you, and on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, you can have eight men sleep with you, and no one will care about you."
Compared with Luo Shiyu's rage, Jiangnan seemed much calmer.
She laughed and teased, "Then you've asked the wrong person. I'm not the matchmaker."
Xiao Mi reminded him, "Sir, our mission is to deliver Hong Yuan to her."
"Of course I remember, but I've never met this son of destiny, so how can I be sure he's the best man in the world? Besides, who gets to say what the best is?"
"This…"
"Just let everything go."
"All right."
Luo Shiyu lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then bravely asked, "Then what can you promise me?"
"Healthy and safe, you can consider me your bodyguard."
"What is a bodyguard?"
Jiangnan smiled awkwardly and changed his words: "Guard."
Luo Shiyu was obviously a little flattered and said, "Ah? Let the Lord God be my bodyguard?"
"This is a huge misunderstanding. I'm not a god."
"It's too much trouble to explain that you are the Heavenly Dao. Just accept this identity."
"It's really hard to explain. Well, I gave myself the identity I had when I was out there."
Jiangnan stood up and walked to Luo Shiyu, bent down to help her up, brushed off the dust on her body, and said gently: "I said when I came here, I came for you, I am your guardian angel."
"The guardian angel who came for me..."
"Yes."
Luo Shiyu was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and found that her hand was held by Jiangnan. She let go and hid behind a pillar.
"I'm speechless. What on earth is she afraid of?"
"It's probably an instinctive reaction. Don't worry, just wait and see."
Jiangnan glanced at Luo Shiyu, continued to turn his back to her, and sat on the beauty's back, staring blankly.
Days passed, and she remained in that position, hardly moving.
Luo Shiyu was tentative, moving her things to the pavilion bit by bit.
At first, she only dared to hide in a corner and embroider quietly. As time went by, she slowly moved towards the south of the Yangtze River.
After more than a month of stalemate, Luo Shiyu finally spoke to Jiangnan: "Are you really my guardian angel?"
Jiangnan didn't answer her. He rested his chin on his hand and looked at the endless lotus pond. He asked, "What's the end of this lotus pond?"
"I do not know either."
"You've never been out?"
Luo Shiyu shook her head and said weakly, "No."
"Want to go out and take a look?"
Luo Shiyu was shocked when she heard this and quickly shook her head to refuse: "No! No way! It's too dangerous!"
"Danger?" Jiangnan said as he lowered his eyes to look at the bottom of the river, and many information boxes of Xiao Mi popped up in front of him.
"Tadpole Spirit Rating: E (You can kill with a single spit, so it's only slightly stronger than that little lotus spirit)"
"Catfish Spirit Rating: E (I don't need to explain how weak it is, right?)"
"Water Scorpion Chuai Jing Rating: F (Ha! Weak!)"
"..."
Jiangnan was silent for a moment, then pointed to the riverbed and asked, "Are they the dangers you're talking about?"
Luo Shiyu couldn't stop nodding.
"Yeah, yeah, that's them! Scary!"
"..."
There was another silence, and Jiangnan frowned and sighed.
"What's wrong? Can't they even defeat you? They really are very strong..."
"Pfft!" Luo Shiyu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, but then he thought that this was his own mother, so he forced himself to hold back his laughter.
Just as he was distracted, he heard a sudden scream and turned his head to look. Jiangnan hadn't known when, holding Luo Shiyu in one hand, and was walking on the water as if it were flat ground.
Luo Shiyu closed her eyes tightly and her body couldn't stop shaking.
A gentle voice sounded in my ears: "Don't be afraid, do you want to see the rainbow?"
When I mustered up the courage to open my eyes, I saw Jiangnan simply raising his hand to stir up the water in the pool in front of him.
The pool water splashed down, forming a small rainbow.
The guys in the water all saw that Jiangnan was quite powerful, so they all hid themselves and no one dared to provoke her.
"Does it look good?"
Luo Shiyu nodded in a trance, and when she came to her senses, she found that there was a bunch of lotus flowers in her arms, and she was now in mid-air.
“Fly…fly! So cool!”
"You'll be able to do it in the future."
"really?"
"Really, I promise you."
"Ding! Detected a dramatic increase in the target's favorability. Current favorability is 93%. Please keep up the good work!"
"Is it rising so fast?"
"Of course, she's a coward, and you're her only friend since she was born. You two are friends, right? Yeah?"
"In your words, of course."
After flying for about a quarter of an hour, a red prompt box popped up in front of Jiangnan.
"The area ahead is quite dangerous. Please increase the target's strength before proceeding."
"Can't go?"
Luo Shiyu noticed something was wrong and asked, "Why did it stop? What happened?"
"Well, the road ahead is too dangerous. You can't go there with your current strength."
After Jiangnan finished speaking, his mind moved, and the two of them instantly returned to the pavilion where they started.
Luo Shiyu was surprised: "You're back already?"
"This is a very simple technique. If you want to learn it, I can teach you."
"Okay, now that I've learned this, can I go outside?"
"Not yet. Wait until you beat me."
"Ah? Beat you?"
[What the hell? There's no hope in this life.]
In the following days, Jiangnan taught Luo Shiyu magic, and left for a few days from time to time to find some treasures to nourish her body.
Luo Shiyu would sew clothes for her by hand as a reward. Luo Shiyu knew all of those clothes, as they were the ones Jiangnan often wore.
Such warm and cozy days passed day after day, year after year...
The relationship between the two became closer.
