Chapter 699 Tournament (9)

After forfeiting the match, Ying Ling walked right in front of Mo Ze Chen.

Mo Ze Chen was surprised and couldn't help taking a step back when he saw this, but Ying Ling revealed a smile at this.

She even leaned in as she said, "It's not like I bite or anything."

Mo Ze Chen's heart couldn't help skipping a beat when he saw her acting like this, but he also took another step back. After all, he was already someone with a girlfriend and it wasn't a good thing for him if he were to get close to another cute girl like this.

He wasn't that petty to not admit that she was a beautiful girl, but that was all the more reason why he should stay away from her.

However, when Ying Ling saw this, she took another step forward before asking while tilting her head, "Is there something you don't like about me?"

Mo Ze Chen's mouth dropped open.

Even if he was an idiot, he could pick up some clues about what was happening here. The only problem that he had with this was why was this happening to him?

When Ying Ling saw his reaction, she revealed a smile as she said, "So you're aware of me as a woman then. Then that's good."

After a pause to take a deep breath, she looked right at Mo Ze Chen and said, "Marry me."

There was only silence that followed this, but then the crowd exploded.

There wasn't a single person that was able to keep up with how this matter developed…

Mo Ze Chen just stood there in a daze, looking at Ying Ling with confusion and shock as he asked, "What did you say?"

Ying Ling revealed a sweet smile and said again, "Marry me."

Mo Ze Chen was once again stunned.

He never expected Ying Ling to be this direct with her words and it completely threw off the train of thought that had just come back on track.

But before either of them could even say a thing, there were several figures that jumped onto the stage, landing in between Mo Ze Chen and Ying Ling.

These figures that jumped onto the stage completely ignored Mo Ze Chen as they surrounded Ying Ling, but based on the aura they released and the look on Ying Ling's face, it was clear that they didn't have any hostile intentions.

These figures all surrounded Ying Ling and one of them, a rough looking man came up to take her shoulders as he said, "Xiao Ling, you can't do this! You can't just marry this fatty and leave your daddy!"

The other figures all started trying to convince Xiao Ling against this decision as well and based on the words they said, it was clear that they were her family members.

But Ying Ling ignored them all as she continued looking at Mo Ze Chen, as if she was waiting for his response.

It took Mo Ze Chen longer than normal to come back to his senses which showed just how much he had been surprised by this matter, but when he did, he turned to look at Ying Ling with a serious look as he said, "I'm sorry, I can't do that."

Ying Ling tilted her head and asked, "Why not?"

At the same time though, the rough looking man who was Ying Ling's dad exploded with anger as he finally turned and acknowledged Mo Ze Chen. However, he didn't have any kind words for Mo Ze Chen as he pointed his finger at him and said, "You dare turn down my cute little Xiao Ling? Who do you think you are?"

Ying Ling gave a sigh and patted her dad's shoulder as she said, "Dad, don't act like that. Let's hear what Ah Chen has to say first."

She had actually changed the way she addressed Mo Ze Chen already, she was already calling him Ah Chen as if they were already dating.

Ying Ling's father revealed a pouty look when he turned back to his daughter and he said, "But Xiao Ling…"

Ying Ling revealed a firm look and it was then that Ying Ling's father stopped talking. Of course, that didn't stop him from glaring at Mo Ze Chen.

Mo Ze Chen had a bitter smile on his face when he saw all of this, but he took a deep breath and said with a serious look, "I already have someone else, so I can't marry you."

This would have been a problem for anyone else because who would expect Mo Ze Chen to drop everything just to marry Ying Ling? However, it didn't seem like it was a problem for Ying Ling.

She just said, "Oh." Then after a pause, she said, "Is that all?"

Mo Ze Chen didn't know how to react to this as he just revealed a confused look.

Ying Ling then said with a very relaxed look, "All you have to do is leave them and then you can marry me. Is that really a problem?"

Everyone revealed a shocked look when they heard this as they couldn't believe what they were hearing.

Ying Ling was this adamant about marrying Mo Ze Chen?

Why?

It had to be known that with how beautiful she was, Ying Ling had quite a few admirers and a lot of them were sitting in the crowd right now.

The moment that they heard this, they all glared at Mo Ze Chen with death glares. If these glares could kill, Mo Ze Chen would have died countless times already.

Mo Ze Chen knitted his brows after coming back to his senses and ignoring the noise from Ying Ling's family members, he looked at her and said, "I don't have any reason to leave her, she is the one I want to be with, not you."

Ying Ling couldn't help finally revealing a different look from the calm appearance that she had the entire time.

She hadn't been relaxed because she knew something that others didn't, she had been relaxed because she was confident in herself.

After all, she was the successor to one of the main branches of the Ying Family and she was the next top genius of the Ying Family's younger generation. Not to mention that she believed that she was quite beautiful, so there wasn't a single fault that could be found with her.

But even with all of this, there was someone that was saying no to her?

If it was anyone else, she would have gotten angry, but she didn't get angry when Mo Ze Chen said this to her. Instead, she felt a bit sad, but also she became more interested in Mo Ze Chen.

She had only proposed to begin with because of his strength, but now she found that there was something else that was attractive about Mo Ze Chen. It seemed like his personality was also quite interesting.

She had thought that the only thing that she would want was someone who was stronger than her so that they could entertain her, but now she found that this wasn't the only thing that she wanted.

She just looked at Mo Ze Chen with upturned eyes and said, "Am I not good enough?"

It wasn't Mo Ze Chen who responded when she said this, but rather her father who had completely exploded.

"You! You dare to bully my Xiao Ling? Who do you think you are! I'm going to…"

But before he could keep going, Ying Ling had already come forward to cover his mouth. She didn't bother looking at him as she looked at Mo Ze Chen, waiting for his answer.

For the first time in her life, she was actually feeling nervous.

Mo Ze Chen was silent for a full minute before shaking his head and saying, "It's not that you're not good enough. It's just that my heart is with this other person."

Hearing this, Ying Ling revealed a faint smile before saying, "Then that's good."

Ying Ling didn't keep pestering Mo Ze Chen with this topic, but when she was leaving, she didn't forget to turn and add with a wink, "Don't forget that you're mine. I don't care who you're with now, but you will be mine in the end."

Without even waiting for Mo Ze Chen's response, she just walked off the stage with a confident smile on her face.

These last words left the arena in silence again, but that silence was quickly broken by Ying Ling's father and other relatives who chased after her, trying to change her mind.

Mo Ze Chen just stood there on stage in a daze as he watched Ying Ling walking off.

As he thought about the last words that she said, he just couldn't help feeling a bit confused. After all, when she had said those words, he had felt his heart skipping a beat.

But that wasn't right since he already had Lulu…

So what was this feeling that he was feeling?

The referee had been standing there on the side like a decoration the entire time, but seeing that Ying Ling was gone and Mo Ze Chen was just standing there, he knew that he had to do something. There were still other matches that had to be fought, so he couldn't just let Mo Ze Chen stay on the stage like this.

At first Mo Ze Chen didn't hear what the referee was saying, but then he slowly heard his words and realized that he was just standing there in a daze, so he walked off the stage.
