Gods: Start with Goblins

.Lodan: ...

Luo Dan never expected that his reputation would be damaged in such a short time.

Although he felt innocent, Luo Dan could only respond with an awkward smile.

All I can say is that the old man has such a good imagination that he doesn’t know how to respond.

"The old man has misunderstood. We are just here to watch the fun, not to receive the hydrangea."

"Oh, is it so?"

The old man looked at the three of them, not sure whether he believed it or not, but he certainly stopped teasing them.

After the old man turned around, Pei Sheng took over his task of teasing Luo Dan.

"Haha, Captain, it seems that your grace has impressed many people. Everyone thought you were here to steal the hydrangea and caused such a misunderstanding."

Luo Dan felt a little helpless. He spread out his hands and showed a somewhat speechless expression.

"Forget it. I'm here. After all, someone has misunderstood me. I'll step back a little. Pei Sheng, you go forward by yourself. You should be able to see the true face of the young lady from the Zhou family. If you like her, there's no harm in snatching her away. Maybe this is a marriage destined by heaven?"

Pei Sheng's heart moved, but he did not shirk the matter. He touched his nose and walked forward.

Luodan was doing nothing in the back, and Xiaobai was just watching the fun and making a fuss.

However, just when Luodan thought that he had nothing to do, there was suddenly a commotion in the front. Looking forward, he found that the hydrangea was being snatched back and forth, and because no one could get it, it was thrown back and forth.

Moreover, he didn’t know if it was his illusion, but the hydrangea was thrown in his direction.

Luo Dan's eyes darkened. He didn't want to take the bouquet and hid behind it.

But he had just taken a step when the hydrangea was slapped into his arms.

That’s right, just a direct slap and she fell into his arms.

It was too late for him to throw it again because Master Zhou struck the gongs and drums, indicating that the throwing of the ball of embroidery had ended, and whoever held the ball of embroidery would be the chosen son-in-law.

Luo Dan was speechless.

"This thing doesn't belong to me. I didn't intend to take the hydrangea at first. You can see from where I was standing that I was just joining the crowd for fun. I didn't expect someone to put the hydrangea into my arms. Please forgive me, Master Zhou, and take the hydrangea back."

Upon hearing this, the others looked hopeful again.

To be honest, so many people failed to get the item, and at first they were quite dissatisfied with Luodan who got the item.

Just as he said, he was able to catch the hydrangea even though he was standing so far away, it seemed like it was destined.

Now I know it was just a misunderstanding and the other party has no intention of getting the hydrangea.

This made many people interested in the idea become interested again, hoping to throw it again, maybe they still have a chance to get the hydrangea.

What he said was sincere and polite.

However, Mr. Zhou didn't listen and came over directly.

Mr. Zhou was of wealthy appearance, with a slightly plump figure, and a kind face, but if you looked closely, there seemed to be a gleam of brilliance in his face.

He looked at Luo Dan with a smile and wanted to hold his hand immediately.

"My dear son-in-law, it's you. I liked you the moment I saw you. I knew you were my son-in-law. Since you have the embroidered ball in your hands, I, Zhou Fuyuan, will keep my word and let you marry my daughter immediately. In the future, you will be the legitimate son-in-law of my Zhou family."

Luo Dan frowned. Why is there still pressure to buy or sell?
"Master Zhou, I have already said in advance that I did not intend to throw the hydrangea. I hope Master Zhou can take it back. I also apologize for the loss caused to Master Zhou and Miss Zhou."

When Mr. Zhou heard this, his face finally darkened.

"Why, judging from what the young master said, could it be that he doesn't like my daughter?"

Luo Dan waved his hands quickly.

"No, that's not what I meant."

"If that's not your intention, then quickly get engaged to my daughter. You know very well that this is the day my daughter throws the embroidered ball. Now the embroidered ball is in your hands. Do you think you will regret it after receiving it? What do you think of my daughter? What do you think of my daughter's marriage?"

"Master Zhou, please calm down. I have nothing to say against your daughter. I just came here to watch the fun. The hydrangea is in my hand not by my will. Someone slapped it into my hand. No matter who it is or what their intention is, I don't plan to marry anyone."

"Master Zhou, I have some magical stones and treasures to offer you as an apology for this accident. However, I'm afraid that the marriage is absolutely impossible."

Luodan was also very sincere and took out many of his precious treasures.

As soon as these treasures appeared, many passers-by stared with their eyes wide open.

"Wow, it's actually a top-grade spirit stone. Who is this person? What a big spender!"

"The instrument in his hand is actually a top-grade magical instrument. Top-grade magical instruments are usually only available at auction houses, and sometimes you may not even be able to buy them at auctions. I didn't expect this guy to just take it out so casually?"

"This time the Zhou family has made a profit. Although this young master has refused the marriage proposal, he is indeed sincere and understandable. Mr. Zhou should accept it."

Just when everyone thought that Mr. Zhou would compromise, accept these things, and the matter would be over.

Mr. Zhou curled his lips and pushed these things back.

"Humph, who do you think I am? What do you think my Zhou family is?"

"Although my Zhou family is not a noble family, we do have some assets, which are not something you can buy with just some spirit stones. I always do things from beginning to end and keep my word. Today, I am throwing a ball to find a husband, so I must throw the ball to get engaged. Whoever holds the ball will be my son-in-law, and no one can deny it. We will not deny it. Sir, you have to agree today whether you agree or not. Since you have received the ball, you must be responsible for my daughter!"

Mr. Zhou's meaning was very clear; he must hold the other party responsible for this matter.

Luo Dan frowned subconsciously, seeming quite helpless.

"Master Zhou, why do you have to force others to do things that are difficult for you?"

"You're forcing me? No matter what the reason is for the hydrangea to appear in your hands, it's in your hands. So many people are watching you. If you refuse, my Zhou family will lose face, and my daughter will be looked down upon by others. So, you must marry my daughter no matter what!"

Luo Dan was helpless and couldn't communicate with this man, so he had to remain silent.

Finally, he took a deep breath and asked back word by word.

"What if I absolutely refuse?"

When he said this, his tone was slightly threatening.

Obviously, if the person in front of him dared to force him, he would turn hostile at any time.

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhou was not afraid of his threats or coercion at all.

Hearing this, he just snorted coldly.

"Hmph, there are not many things that my Zhou family has to do that cannot be completed. Come, tie up my son-in-law and send him to the bridal chamber immediately. We will get married right now and change him into wedding clothes immediately!"

Obviously, Mr. Zhou intends to make the matter a fait accompli and not give the other party any chance to refuse.

Rodan:......

This is simply a gangster act. Is he trying to force the sale?

Following Master Zhou's order, several thugs immediately came forward.

Luo Dan took a quick look and found that their cultivation was not low, and they were all at the Holy See level.

It seems that Mr. Zhou does have some background and has indeed made some effort.

He didn't move at first, nor did he reveal his strength. He just clenched his fists slightly and thought about how to escape.

To be honest, he was somewhat in the wrong after all, so he didn't dare to take action for the time being. Although Mr. Zhou was forcing the sale, what he said was not unreasonable. Moreover, these people were much weaker than him, and there were so many innocent people around them. He didn't want to be too tough unless it was necessary.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate and seemed about to break out.

A cold and noble voice came. "Stop!"

Almost everyone looked over when they heard the sound, wanting to see who was making this immortal-like voice.
Everyone only saw a sedan chair slowly approaching. Just talking about this sedan chair, it was made of extremely high-quality materials. There were all kinds of carvings and paintings around the sedan chair. It was more like a small mobile palace than a sedan chair.

"Wow, who is this person? How can he be so extravagant?"

"Look at the oriental pearls hanging on the eaves of the sedan chair. These are usually tributes. It is difficult for ordinary people to see them. I have never seen such round and large oriental pearls. But for the owner of this sedan chair, they are just hung on the sedan chair to show off, not worn on the body. It is really generous."

"Yes, look at the people carrying the sedan chair. They are majestic and seem to have high cultivation. The maids standing beside the sedan chair are also very beautiful. I wonder what the identities of the people inside are?"

Everyone was frightened by this posture. For a moment, they only dared to whisper in private, not daring to criticize loudly, and their eyes were also considering each other.

Even Mr. Zhou, who had been acting like a nouveau riche just now, inadvertently took a step back.

Compared with ordinary people, Mr. Zhou, who has a little capital, can see the value of these things better.

The owner of the sedan chair was either rich or noble. I don’t know what rank he was, but he was definitely above them.

Mr. Zhou did not dare to offend him casually, so he acted like a quail.

As a bare hand stretched out, the curtain was opened, revealing everything inside.

A beautiful woman walked out slowly, wearing a palace dress, a long skirt, and a long and stern shawl draped over her arms.

The beautiful face is delicately made up with a flower ornament on the forehead.

It is magnificent, noble and elegant.

Just when everyone was shocked by her posture and unable to react for a moment.

The maid beside her was already scolding everyone.

"How dare you not kneel before the princess!"

Everyone just woke up from their dream and realized that the person in front of them was the princess.

So after looking at each other, they all knelt down in a row.

"Greetings to the princess. May the princess live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"

No one expected that a princess from a wealthy family would appear in such a small town.

As expected, she has the style of a princess. She is extraordinary at first glance. Everything she wears and uses is of the best quality, demonstrating the majesty and wealth of the royal family.

The civilians didn't even dare to look up, and they quickly lowered their heads.

Even the arrogant and domineering Master Zhou no longer dared to act unruly in front of the princess. He was as obedient as a lamb and followed the princess in paying his respects.

The princess just glanced at Mr. Zhou indifferently, as if she was looking at something unimportant, and quickly looked away, not taking it to heart.

"Lodan, let's go."

Luo Dan looked at the princess, and felt mixed emotions as they met again.

I thought she would say something to me, but she only spoke to me to defend herself. She said a few simple words and I couldn't tell what she was thinking.

Luo Dan's eyes moved, but he quickly regained his composure.

"it is good."

Luo Dan followed the princess's sedan chair and was about to leave.

Mr. Zhou seemed a little indignant. He raised his head and looked at the princess hesitantly, wanting to say something.

"Princess, this person..."

He was about to make a complaint, but before he could finish his words, the princess cast a stern gaze down at him.

The moment he saw that look, Mr. Zhou immediately fell silent.

"Why, do you still have an opinion about what this princess said?"

After hearing these cold and threatening words, Mr. Zhou didn't dare to say a word for a moment. He just lowered his head, bowed, and looked very respectful.

The princess stared at him for a long time without saying a word.

Until Master Zhou was stared at so hard that his legs were trembling and he almost couldn't stand.

She showed mercy and opened her thin lips slightly.

"Let's go."

"Departure."

The maid beside her gave an order and the carriage continued to move forward slowly.

"Luo Dan, how about coming up? This princess has something to tell you."

Luo Dan paused, his eyes deep, but he finally followed.

Pei Sheng's gossipy eyes flickered between the princess and his captain, but he quickly retracted his gaze because the princess couldn't make trouble.

However, the captain is worthy of being the captain, he even has an affair with the princess.

Luo Dan just followed behind the sedan, which made the princess slightly unhappy.

"Why are you walking so slowly? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"

Luo Dan cupped his hands.

"I don't dare."

The princess was still very irritable and a little unwilling.

"Don't dare? If you don't dare, then move forward a little and make sure you keep your eyes level with me. This princess has already said that she wants to talk to you. Luo Dan, are you deliberately avoiding me and keeping your distance from me?"

As she spoke, she became more and more irritable and glared at Luo Dan fiercely.

Luo Dan's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything, just looked at her.

The princess looked at the face she had longed for, choked, and finally softened her temper.

"Hey, Luo Dan, why do you think we are not destined to be together?"

Luodan didn’t know, and he couldn’t give any reason.

He was also worried that if he spoke too much he would make many mistakes and that would make the princess unhappy, so he kept silent.

Behind him, Pei Sheng almost popped his eyes out of shock when he heard this.

What, the captain and the princess are really having an affair, and there is some story in the past?
He was just guessing, but he didn't expect that his guess would be right.

This time, his eyes became teasing, with some indescribable meaning.

Alas, the captain's luck with women is really shameful.

Besides, even a princess can’t catch the captain’s eye. I really don’t know what kind of person the captain likes. It’s really exciting to think about it.

The princess did not get an answer, as if she had already expected it and did not show too much disappointment. Only when she occasionally lowered her eyes, a hint of gloom flashed across her eyes quickly and then slowly disappeared into her eyes.

She is a proud princess, and even if she is rejected, she must not lose face.

In order to avoid embarrassing herself, she changed the subject. (End of this chapter)
