Protect Our Chief-Chapter 632 - 64: A Quick Boost! Liyao, the Great Celestial Pride_2

"Wang Shouzhe, oh Wang Shouzhe, do you think that merely with this, you can escape from the palm of my hand, Tianyan?" A hint of mad flicker flashed in Tianyan Fairy’s eyes, "Once I, Tianyan, have made up my mind, no one can change it."

"I just don’t believe, how could a Great Celestial Pride like me not be tempted to become your concubine? There must be some secret I haven’t detected... What exactly is that secret?"

Seeing the hint of obsession on Tianyan’s face, the middle-aged servant woman felt a tightness in her heart, secretly becoming anxious and worried. Miss, oh miss, for the sake of the family, you must maintain your composure.

...

"Fourth Uncle..."

Heading towards the direction of the Southern Desert Wang Family’s main residence, Wang Shihai finally caught up with Wang Shouzhe, who had slowed down his pace.

Even now, there were still traces of surprise and curiosity on his face: "That’s a Celestial Human Realm’s Celestial Pride! If you marry her as a concubine, wouldn’t your Changning Wang Family’s reputation and strength leap onto a higher level?"

If it were Wang Shihai, let alone marry Tianyan as a concubine, even as a legitimate wife, it would not be impossible. After all, he wasn’t the eldest legitimate son of the family, and had much more freedom in choosing a spouse.

Moreover, being able to marry a Celestial Human Realm’s Celestial Pride is indeed an honor that greatly enhances one’s prestige.

For a Fifth-Grade Noble Family, it’s very difficult to marry a Celestial Pride woman of the same level noble family. Even if it’s the eldest legitimate son with the bearing of a Celestial Pride marrying a wife, it’s still very difficult to wed a Celestial Pride as a wife.

Just because, for a Fifth-Grade Noble Family, Celestial Pride bloodlines are already hard to come by. Even the family’s own Celestial Pride women wouldn’t be lightly married off; they are generally kept at home and nurtured to become the next generation’s Ancestor of the Purple Mansion. If the family already has a Purple Mansion Species, they would most likely be sent to local Academies or the Lingyun Sacred Land to find another path.

Even in the future, if they were to marry, they would most likely choose to marry into a higher-grade noble family.

"Heh heh~~ I, Wang Shouzhe, know my own weight." Wang Shouzhe chuckled lightly, "That Tianyan is neither a family arranged marriage, nor childhood sweethearts, nor an intimate confidant. For her to lower her status like this and willingly become a concubine, there must be ulterior motives."

"We are merely a Seventh-Grade Noble Family, small and frail, unable to withstand any storms or whirlpools. Therefore, I neither want to know her secrets, nor do I wish to have any entanglement with her."

At the same time, in Wang Shouzhe’s heart, he secretly calculated that with the Wang Family’s current foundation, they didn’t lack a Celestial Pride at all.

Therefore, even if Tianyan had no strange intentions, there wasn’t much attraction for Wang Shouzhe.

To nurture a Celestial Pride into the Purple Mansion Realm, the expenditure is astronomical. Having one more Celestial Pride in the family means taking on more responsibility.

"Fourth Uncle’s words do make some sense." After seriously pondering, Wang Shihai also expressed agreement, but still regrettably said, "Just missed an opportunity, such a pity, a Celestial Pride concubine, just thinking about it is thrilling..."

Wang Shouzhe glanced at him in exasperation. See how short-sighted? His wife, Liua Ruolan, is also a Great Celestial Pride. Not necessarily much... Alright, he admitted some things are indeed quite thrilling, especially when unable to defeat...

Today outside, nothing to do.

After returning to the main residence, they rested briefly. In the following days, Wang Shihai took Wang Shouzhe around the Southern Desert County City, which opened his eyes quite a bit. During this period, Huangfu Feifei also invited Wang Shouzhe to a Spirit and Flesh Banquet, which regarded as a social interaction.

Of course, this interaction was purely in a friendly manner, and Wang Shouzhe was not averse to Huangfu Feifei, after all, she was also a Celestial Pride, with substantial nurturing from the Southern Desert Huangfu Family, she had a considerable chance to become Ancestor of the Purple Mansion in the future.

It’s good to expand networks between each other.

During these days.

The Southern Desert Wang Family’s attitude towards Wang Shouzhe and Ancestor Longyan also subtly changed. The extremely busy "daily managing endless affairs" Patriarch Wang Zonghao would always find time to see the ’living guest’ Wang Shouzhe, to warmly chat about family anecdotes.

At the same time.

The hospitality towards Ancestor Longyan became even more attentive. Not only did they send a direct lineage daughter to attend to Ancestor Longyan with a group of maidservants, but the family’s main wife would also visit daily to offer warmth and care to Ancestor Longyan.

Such a level of hospitality seemed like they were treating the Changning Wang Family as a guest of the same grade.

A few days passed in this manner, just before the auction was officially about to begin.

This day, early in the morning.

The Southern Desert Wang Family’s Patriarch Wang Zonghao and his son arrived early to visit Wang Shouzhe in his ’guest’ courtyard, accompanied by a man who looked in his fifties or sixties.

"Fourth Uncle Shouzhe, did you rest well last night?" Wang Zonghao was concerned and saluted, "If there’s anything displeasing, feel free to tell me, don’t hold back."

"Thank you, Patriarch Zonghao, for your concern, everything is very well." Wang Shouzhe smiled in return, then glanced at the slightly older man and asked, "Patriarch Zonghao, who is this elder..." This person had an introverted demeanor, akin to a deep and unmeasurable ocean, making Wang Shouzhe feel quite extraordinary.

"Come, let me introduce to Fourth Uncle." Patriarch Wang Zonghao enthusiastically introduced, "This is a senior of the Ding Generation ranked ninth - my Grandpa the Ninth, Wang Dingxin. Grandpa the Ninth, this is the Fourth Uncle Shouzhe from Changning Wang Family that I mentioned."
