Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Chapter 835: Three Promises

TL : BluVerse

This time, instead of pushing him away, Lan Mengqin leaned against him and whispered, "What should I do? Tell me, what should I do? Fate cannot be changed, and my clan needs me. Can I not go back? My mother doesn't know how much longer she'll live, she's getting weaker every day. I have no choice. I really have no choice."

"No, there must be a way. Mengqin, listen to me." Qian Lei said softly, "Although none of us wants to encounter such a situation, since we have encountered it, we must face it bravely. The genetic problem of your family may have never been solved before, but that doesn't mean it can't be solved in the future. Science has been advancing rapidly. If we were placed in ancient times, could you imagine that humans could create spaceships to travel in space, or that humans could really achieve interstellar colonization? Every day, we humans are creating miracles. Why can't a miracle happen to your mother? As the saying goes, two heads are better than one. With so many of us, and we can also request help from the academy, there might really be a chance. Even if we can't cure your mother, maybe we can prolong her life. If she can be cured, she can continue to be the clan leader, and you can continue to study with us and enter the inner courtyard. That is the best way for everyone. So, you shouldn't keep this a secret from everyone. We should all think of a solution together. If there really is no solution, then I will go back with you. I believe that boss and the others will understand. Okay?"

Lan Mengqin's vision blurred. Since her mother fell ill a year ago, she had been feeling helpless and lost. Even though she tried to focus on her cultivation every day, her heart always wandered back to her mother's side. If it wasn't for her mother's strict order to complete her studies, she would have already gone back home. freeweb novel.com

At this moment, leaning on Qian Lei's embrace, she suddenly felt a sense of dependence. Crying twice today had released all the depression that had accumulated in her heart, and she felt incredibly relieved.

"Should I really tell everyone? I don't want to make everyone worry because of me," whispered Lan Mengqin.

This time, trust me. Back when we were still on the Heavenly Soul Planet, I never thought that I and Frenzy could make it to Shrek Academy. Even after we got in, you know my strength wasn't much. But we've been creating miracles all along, under the leadership of our Boss. Now, we are even candidates for the Shrek Seven Monsters title. So, in this world, you must believe that nothing is impossible. It's only a matter of whether you do it or not. I'll call Boss now and ask everyone to come back."

As he spoke, Qian Lei raised his hand and began to dial the soul communicator.

Although Lan Mengqin wanted to stop him, she was held back by his other hand. She struggled a bit, but this time Qian Lei didn't listen to her. He loved her very much and even appeared timid in front of her, but if it was for her own good, he still had his own persistence.

As the communication connected, Qian Lei said, "Boss, can you come back? Mengqin's reaction today is because something troublesome happened at home. Come back and let's discuss it together. We'll be in Mengqin's dormitory."

"We'll be there," came the response from the other end, from Lan Xuanyu, who only spoke three words. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝒎

After ending the call, Qian Lei let out a sigh of relief and smiled, "I don't know why, but as soon as I heard that the boss is coming back, I felt more resolute. I have a feeling that the boss can definitely solve your mother's problem. Do you believe me?"

Mengqin left his embrace and replied, "If that's the case, then it would be great. But is it really possible? The genetic defect inherited by our family has been plaguing us for thousands of years. I really dare not hope."

Qian Lei said, "Nothing is impossible. Hasn't Boss created miracles before? Just wait for him to come."

Lan Mengqin looked at him and Qian Lei's heart trembled. He said, "Mengqin, if your mother's problem is solved, can I ask you something?"

"What?" Lan Mengqin asked.

"Be my girlfriend. I'm not taking advantage of your situation. I really like you. No matter what the result is, no matter what you choose, wherever you are, I'll be there," Qian Lei said.

"Although you are not as good as Xuanyu, with your current talent, it is almost without any problem for you to be admitted to the Inner Court. Your future is bright. Are you really willing to give up?" Lan Mengqin looked at him and asked.

Qian Lei chuckled and said, "I'm destined to be a man who dotes on his wife, so for someone like me, a bright future doesn't mean much. I only want a warm home with my wife and children. As long as I can be with you, nothing else matters. I'm not saying this impulsively. These are my true feelings. I only have two dreams: to make money and to marry you."

Lan Mengqin rolled her eyes at him, then turned her head away, her pretty face blushing, even the translucent earlobes turning red. But she clearly nodded her head.

Qian Lei was overjoyed. He never expected that for him, today would be such a turning point. He stepped forward to embrace Lan Mengqin.

"Stop right there." Lan Mengqin coldly hummed.

Qian Lei stood still as if he had been immobilized, looking at her pitifully.

Lan Mengqin turned around, then held out three fingers to him. "Three promises. First, you have to listen to me from now on. Second, you can't be mean to me anymore. Only I can be mean to you. Third, um, I haven't thought of it yet. Let's talk about it later."

"Okay, okay. No problem," Qian Lei nodded repeatedly like a little chick eating grains.

Finally, Lan Mengqin smiled, punched him on the shoulder, and then took the initiative to lean into his arms, letting him hold her.

Qian Lei blushed, but he was also proud and happy. What more could he ask for in life?

They didn't stay in each other's arms for long before the doorbell rang outside. The two quickly separated. Lan Mengqin tidied up her clothes with a blush on her face, while Qian Lei ran to open the door.

Outside the door, Lan Xuanyu, Bai Xiuxiu, Tang Yuge, Yuenen Huihui, and Liu Feng had all returned.

In fact, they had just arrived at the auction not long ago and didn't encounter anything suitable, then Qian Lei called them back.

Upon seeing the blushing Qian Lei, Lan Xuanyu's eagerness dissipated by half. He didn't seem to be in a hurry at all! "Meng Qin," Bai Xiuxiu couldn't wait any longer and rushed in to find Lan Mengqin. She was the most eager among them all. Among the group, she and Lan Mengqin had the best relationship and had known each other for the longest time.

When everyone had gathered in the living room of Lan Mengqin's dormitory, they all couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

They were all smart people with strong spiritual powers, and they naturally sensed the unusual atmosphere between Lan Mengqin and Qian Lei.

Lan Xuanyu looked at Qian Lei, then at Lan Mengqin. Seeing both of them with slightly reddened faces, he asked in confusion, "What's going on between you two?"

Qian Lei stammered and couldn't speak, standing there obediently. Lan Mengqin couldn't help but give him a scornful glance and said, "Look at you, so useless. It's nothing, we're just together now."

"Ah?" The five of them, including Lan Xuanyu, were all stunned.

Even Liu Feng couldn't help but say, "Isn't this a bit too fast?"

Qian Lei suddenly raised his head and angrily said, "What do you mean by too fast? Can't you speak properly? Mengqin just agreed to be my girlfriend."

Liu Feng asked in confusion, "Yes! I meant that. What were you thinking?"

Lan Mengqin was both shy and angry. She kicked Qian Lei and said, "If you can't speak properly, then shut up."

"Wait, wait, let me calm down. Fatty, what exactly happened in Mengqin's family?" Lan Xuanyu still focused on the most important point.

Qian Lei composed himself and then explained the situation that Lan Mengqin had told him.
