Chapter 274 - The Effects of One Afternoon (2/2)
Those women who still hadn't married yet felt extremely lucky. Especially since this man seemed like an even better catch. Well, it couldn't be said that he was more handsome than the man a year back but just take a look at him! With that white robe and the gentle smile on his lips, he seemed like a true gentleman, someone worth entrusting their lives to.
That man last year had been better looking but in terms of the feeling he gave off … A woman probably couldn't feel secure with him as a husband! He was just too handsome, too majestic, too outstanding! Wouldn't they always have to be afraid that other women would try to snatch him away? And then his personality was still debatable, too. He had looked so proud, he was probably not easy to handle.
Mn, this man before them was much better!
They had learned their lesson last time though: One had to act swiftly in order to ensure victory!
Thus before Xiao Li had the opportunity to find out who Madam Zhong was he was already approached by another woman. At the other's gaze, he actually couldn't help but shudder. This was ridiculous! He was part demon! Why would he be afraid of a purely mortal woman?
Or, wait … Maybe she wasn't? He narrowed his eyes slightly but couldn't detect any traces of other blood in her. Well, things like that weren't that obvious just at a glance. He'd have to interact more with her to find out.
To make sure he didn't give the wrong impression Xiao Li once again cupped his fists like a good, righteous path cultivator. ”My greetings. Might you be the owner of this teahouse?”
The woman was a bit taken aback. It couldn't be … that this was also a person who wanted to marry one of the owner's daughters?
Seeing her reaction, Xiao Li was sure that she wasn't the person he was looking for. Flashing another smile, he bobbed his head at her. ”I'm very sorry, Miss. I have something important to discuss with the owner so if there is nothing else …”
The woman looked at him, a sense of urgency arising in her heart. How was she supposed to get him interested in her? What could she do? Looking at his appearance he was definitely a Daoist Master! This realization instantly sparked an idea.
The woman lifted her hand to her forehead in a manner she thought most graceful. ”Aiya!” She sighed and then collapsed right toward Xiao Li.
The half-demon was stunned but considering he was pretending to be a righteous cultivator right now it was impossible not to catch her. Thus, with a seemingly worried expression, he caught the woman. Inwardly, he gnashed his teeth though. This dumb thing was just making things difficult for him!
