Chapter 776: 776 New Proposal

Chapter 776 New Proposal

An angry Luo Mei walked out of the living room the confront of a newly arrived young man.

"Tian Chen, can you leave, please? I don't have time to deal with you right now," she said.

She was finally getting somewhere with her thoughts and feelings after years of putting them aside, and just at that time, he had come in to ruin it all.

"Meimei, stop being so distant. Our families will join together soon anyhow," the young man with a hawkish face said. His long straight hair fell down the side of his shoulders, making him seem regal.

"Who are you?" Du Yuhan walked out from the living room as well.

"I'm her future husband," the young man spoke. "Who are you?"

"Shut your trap, Tian Chen. I am not going to marry you, no matter how much you fantasize about it," Luo Mei said angrily.

"Come on, Meimei. Don't be like that. We are childhood friends, and we're bound to be tog—"

The young man's words froze on his tongue as a sword fell on his neck. He could feel the cold and sharp metal touch his skin and even prick him a bit.

Du Yuhan stood in front of him, ready to cut his head off if he dared speak any longer. However, to his surprise, the young man didn't seem scared at all.

Du Yuhan could understand why. The young man was in the True Lord 4th realm, 3 realms higher than Du Yuhan himself. So, he felt pretty good about the odds of fighting Du Yuhan.

Which was to say, the guy overestimated himself.

There was a very fine line between confidence and stupidity. Somehow, this guy had his feet on both sides of the line.

"Go ahead," the young man said, very certain Du Yuhan wouldn't go forward with it. Even if he did, what did he have to fear against someone that was 3 realms weaker than him?

A white outline appeared on the sword in Du Yuhan's and Luo Mei was spooked. While she certainly hated Tian Chen, killing him was not something she would have ever thought of doing.

"No, stop," Luo Mei said.

"See? She worries about me," Tian Chen gave a mocking smile. That only served to infuriate Du Yuhan even more.

The white outline on his sword slowly started covering it completely.

Luo Mei understood how strong that was and knew Tian Chen would die if Du Yuhan dared to attack. From the looks of the situation, he definitely dared to.

"What are you waiting for?" Tian Chen spoke up. "Are you sc—"

Suddenly his eyes went white and he fell to the ground with a bang.

"No need to get blood on your hands for such a little thing," Alex said as he walked up to the front.

Du Yuhan was surprised. "What did you do?" he asked.

"Just a simple mental attack," Alex said as he walked up to the unconscious fellow.

"What should we do with him?" Alex asked.

"Mengmeng!" Luo Mei called the girls.

"Yes, young lady," both Meng Yun and Meng Fei arrived in the room.

"Can you throw him outside the house and find some of his men to take him back?" she asked.

"Throw him in the dirt? Won't that infuriate senior Tian?" Meng Yun asked.

"I don't care," Luo Mei said. "I'm infuriated myself."

"Okay," Meng Yun said and grabbed the young man before bringing him out to the front.

"Alright, since the distraction is gone, you two should finish your talk soon," Alex said.

"What? I've missed you a lot. We two can talk this out later, I want to talk with you now," Luo Mei said.

"We can talk later after you two figure it out. For now, I think I might have something to do," Alex said as he left the two to talk.

Luo Mei looked back at Du Yuhan and sighed. "I'm sorry we were interrupted," she said.

"Just tell me what you were going to say," Du Yuhan asked. "Why did you leave and make excuses to not see me? Do you really not love me anymore?"

"No, that's not true, I…" Luo Mei struggled to put her thought into words.

"You what?" Du Yuhan asked.

"I… I was scared okay?" Luo Mei said. "Things were moving too fast, and I… I didn't know what to do. I loved you, I still do, but I feel like if I accepted your marriage proposal, I… I would not be able to continue with my life the way it has been going."

"It felt too big of a change to take place in such a short time. So I… I decided to leave to take some time off to think," she said.

"You could've just refused," Du Yuhan said. "Had you only told me you weren't fine with it, I would have understood."

"I couldn't refuse you," she said. "In some ways, I wanted it too, which is why it was so scary. I felt myself with different thoughts contradicting each other."

"So… you didn't leave because you didn't want to be with me?" he asked.

"No, I… I just wanted to make sense of my own thoughts. I'm sorry it's taken me so long but I don't think I'm still able to come up with an answer yet," Luo Mei said.

"It's fine," Du Yuhan said. "I will take back my proposal."

"What? No, you ca—"

Du Yuhan put up his palm to stop her from talking any further. "It's fine. I'm sorry I didn't understand your thoughts at the time and simply assumed the worst."

"So, I will take back my proposal for marriage for a few years until you're fine with it yourself. Until then, what do you say we go back to the way things were?" he asked.

Luo Mei's eyes teared up as she quickly wiped them away. "Really? I would love that."

She jumped into Du Yuhan's embrace and finally felt the weight on her chest lift after 5 full years.

Du Yuhan too couldn't help but feel a knot in his heart disappear at the moment as he embraced her back

Alex was on the outside, looking at the two of them, and smiled. 'Guess it's time to go do my thing,' he thought as he walked away.

Meng Yun handled Tian Chen's body as she brought it to the gate, but didn't know what to do with it afterward.

The man was clearly unconscious, so leaving him there wouldn't be the best thing to do. But he also disrespected her young lady so she felt like hitting him a few times before throwing him out.

Just then, Alex walked out of the manor and then towards her. "Hey, sister Meng," he said as he went up to her.

"What are you doing here?" she asked with a confused look.

"Come, let me take him," Alex said as he pulled Tian Chen's body onto his own shoulders and carried him.

Meng Yun couldn't even say anything before he was taken away.

"The young lady said we can drop him off just outside the gate," Meng Yun said.

"That's just her anger speaking," Alex said. "He's a young master of a well-known family. Throwing him out won't be good for the family."

"Then?" Meng Yun asked?

"Can you guide me to his house? I'm going to take him there myself."
