"Cough cough, as a second-rate aristocratic family, I naturally have my own ways to deal with it. However, this is a matter of the Lin Clan, so it would be inconvenient for me to interfere in it. Thus, I discussed it with the Lin Clan Head." Wu Chen said somewhat embarrassedly.

Lin Tianxing's idea was for Wu Chen to get engaged to Lin Jiajia, but Wu Chen was still a little unable to say anything about this matter.

After all, he still felt that he liked Zhou Ziyu and wanted to be betrothed to her. Although he knew that this was just a ploy to get ahold of the Gu Wu Lin family, he still had a feeling that he had betrayed Zhou Ziyu.

"What did you discuss?" Seeing that Wu Chen did not say it after a long time, Zhou Ziyu became curious.

"Yeah, yeah. What did you guys say?" Zhou Shiyu who was at the side also opened his eyes wide and asked curiously.

Although her relationship with Lin Jiajia was not that good, it was mostly just a small conflict between the two of them, with the feeling of mutual enemies and friends. Furthermore, after being together for a long time, she was not willing to see Lin Jiajia suddenly leave this place.

If he offended him, it would be offending a sect. Lin Family, which was one of the lowest ranked families in the entire second-rate, would not dare to offend an aristocratic family, a sect, that was stronger than him, for the sake of money.

"What?" Master wants to be engaged to that old woman, I don't agree! " Zhou Shiyu did not understand all this, but upon hearing that Wu Chen and Lin Jiajia were getting engaged, he immediately got up from the sofa and objected.

Although she didn't want Lin Jiajia to leave this place, she didn't want her to get close to her master either, and become her mistress.

Zhou Ziyu was also startled, after that she looked at Wu Chen with a complicated expression, but did not express anything.

Seeing that, Wu Chen used his hands to push Zhou Shiyu away, looking at the silent Zhou Ziyu, he was not only anxious.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Wu Chen nervously asked Zhou Ziyu.

If Zhou Ziyu showed any signs of being agitated, or even scolding him, Wu Chen would be very happy, but right now, as Zhou Ziyu was acting as if nothing had happened, Wu Chen was not too sure.

"What can I say? "Could it be that I wish you two a hundred years of peace? It's just a show anyway." Zhou Ziyu rolled her eyes, and said unhappily to Wu Chen.

Perhaps because it was an aristocratic family, Zhou Ziyu didn't care too much about the marriage alliance. Furthermore, she understood in her heart that this was just a play by Wu Chen in order to make the Gu Wu Lin family give up.

"Since it's just an engagement and not a marriage, why should I act so anxious? Wouldn't that make it seem like I care about him a lot?" Zhou Ziyu secretly said to herself in her heart.

For some reason, she felt depressed after hearing this news.

Only, Zhou Ziyu did not want Wu Chen to know about this.

"It's good that you understand." Wu Chen laughed somewhat embarrassedly.

Although Zhou Ziyu's calm appearance looked good, it was still out of Wu Chen's expectations, and even made Wu Chen a little suspicious as to whether Zhou Ziyu really liked her or not.

On the other hand, Zhou Shiyu looked like she was wronged, she sat on the sofa with a sullen face, and looked at Wu Chen with an aggrieved expression.

Of course Wu Chen ignored her. No matter how smart he was, Zhou Shiyu was just a nine year old child, he did not understand much about these things.

I had observed Zhou Ziyu's expression carefully before, and realised that there wasn't much of a change.

"It can't be that I have a one-sided relationship, right? She must be empathetic, so she wasn't jealous of me." Wu Chen comforted her in her heart for a while before calming her heart.

"By the way, when is your engagement date? Should I go and have a look as well? " Zhou Ziyu suddenly looked at Wu Chen and asked.

Zhou Shiyu, who was at the side, also had a change in expression when he heard it, and got up from the sofa with a face full of curiosity, approaching Wu Chen's side.

"The time seems to be tomorrow night. Lin Tianxing has already invited many people from the Forest City. Even though he wanted to marry the Gu Wu Lin family before, and it was me this time, the time still hasn't changed." Wu Chen replied honestly.

Maybe it was because the invitation was sent out, that Lin Tianxing allowed Wu Chen and Lin Jiajia to carry out the engagement ceremony.

After all, the engagement invitation had already been sent out. He could not just cancel it, right? Wouldn't the entire Lin Family become a laughingstock?

"About this, I think it's best if you don't go. After all, there will be so many people appearing at that time, and all of them will be doing business. How boring would it be if you went by yourself?" Wu Chen was elated to see that Zhou Ziyu was still asking for her opinion.

Because this meant that Zhou Ziyu was not completely indifferent to this matter.

Based on Zhou Ziyu's personality, if she really did not care, she would not even ask Wu Chen, and would instead go whenever she wanted to. If she did not want to, then she would not go.

Wu Chen naturally did not want Zhou Ziyu to go.

Although his and Lin Jiajia's engagement was a show for the Gu Wu Lin family to see, it had to be an engagement itself. If Zhou Ziyu went to see it, something might happen to her.

Wu Chen only thought to get the engagement over with, and then the three of them could resume their original relationship.

"Maybe after this matter, I'll also have to talk with Zhou Ziyu a bit more. At the same time, I'll also take this opportunity to further improve our relationship. Wu Chen thought in his heart.

When he and Zhou Ziyu progressed the fastest, it was still during that period when they had just met.

At that time, there were still no Blood Lotus Sect and the Zhou family.

At that time, Wu Chen's greatest difficulty was being bullied by a few delinquents. Once he had the system, he would very casually teach them a lesson.

Although his strength was not at the time, his relationship with Zhou Ziyu improved the most during that period.

Although his own strength had already reached the Spirit Accumulation Realm and could almost be considered as number one among the young generation, his relationship with Zhou Ziyu had not progressed by much.

"Maybe it's because he pursues strength too much, at that time in order to make Zhou Ziyu stay in the Forest City, he even went to the Zhou Family, and after that he always ran around with concerns about power, and neglected Zhou Ziyu a little." Wu Chen faintly sighed.
