Chapter 763: Big Brother, I Like You (2/2)

What do I do? What do I do?!

Tang Wulin stood on the surface of the Sea G.o.d's Lake in a slightly slack-jawed manner, and his resolve had been shaken for the very first time.

If he'd known that this was how the match-making convention was going to turn out, then he would've rather not attended at all.

He truly felt as if he were being tortured as he stared at two of the most important women in his life.

”Junior Disciple Brother Wulin, please make your choice,” Lan Muzi urged in a low voice.

Tang Wulin took a deep breath with all his might, trying to muster up all of the strength in his entire body.

He knew the answer in his heart. He didn't want to hurt Na'er, but it was even more unappealing to him to lie to her. Furthermore, despite how complicated everything had become, he didn't want to give up on this chance, no matter how slim it was.

”I'm sorry, Na'er; I choose Girl Number 17!” It seemed to have taken him all of his strength to utter those few words.

Gasps and cries of surprise rang out across and around the entire lake. No one could believe that he had rejected the Dragon Spear G.o.ddess' heartfelt confession and chose Girl Number 17 instead, especially when she hadn't chosen him, and hadn't even removed her own veil!

How was this possible?

He turned down Wu Siduo, Dai Yun'er, AND Na'er, all three of whom were top-notch beauties! Instead, he'd chosen a woman who seemed to have shown no interest in him.

On the sh.o.r.e.

”Nice! As expected of our captain; he's just as bada.s.s as ever! It's just that Na'er...” Xie Xie reflexively pumped his fist.

Yuanen Yehui, Ye Xinglan, and Xu Lizhi also wore nervous expressions on their faces. They knew that the moment of truth had come for Tang Wulin.

Faint light s.h.i.+mmered in the air, and Girl Number 17's lotus leaf slowly drifted to the forefront.

Lan Muzi and Tang Yinmeng glanced at one another, only to see their own astonishment mirrored in each other's eyes. Never did they think that Na'er would get rejected.

After Tang Wulin had given her his response, Na'er turned deathly pale, and she reflexively took a backward step, only barely catching herself after half her foot had trodden into the water.

Lan Muzi gulped silently before turning to Girl Number 17. ”According to our rules, you must remove your veil now, and listen to a one-minute confession from him.”

Girl Number 17 hesitated momentarily before slowly raising her hand to remove her veil, revealing a pale face with black hair and black eyes.

Compared to Dai Yun'er and Na'er, her appearance was quite ordinary, and she paled in the face of their beauty.

Tears were already flowing uncontrollably down her face, and her lips were quivering gently.

Tang Wulin smiled a the sight of her tears. She wasn't completely heartless after all. Seeing the tears flowing down her face, he suddenly felt as if all of his suffering had been worth it.

”You should've chosen her.” Gu Yue turned toward Na'er's direction.

Na'er remained completely silent.

Gu Yue then said something that was rather inexplicable. ”I didn't want to win.”

Na'er suddenly smiled, despite the fact that her face was still deathly pale. She raised her head and turned to Gu Yue in a proud manner. ”Some things aren't up to you.”

Tears began to flow freely as Gu Yue closed her eyes. ”But do you know how heavy a price he'll have to pay for this? Do you know how difficult our future will become?”

Na'er remained completely determined as she said, ”I don't care. All I want is to give the entirety of myself to him.”

Tang Wulin stared blankly at the two of them. When had these two become so close with one another? And what were they saying? Why couldn't he understand a single word?

Lan Muzi also had no idea what they were saying, but the show had to go on. ”It's your turn, Wulin. You have one minute.”
