I Can’t Be Sword God



132 Chapter 30: Chen Huaiji’s bootlicking diary

The first time Chen Huaji met Liu Qinglian was on her first stage.

At that time, the peach Valley restaurant had started to promote her a month in advance, even at the expense of promoting miss Xiao Liu as a ” beautiful girl that only appears once in four thousand years “, which had whetted the appetite of all the scholars in the city.

It was actually a very dangerous act to build up such a momentum, because once the good girl did not meet people’s expectations, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

However, miss Xiao Liu caught the expectations of the entire city.

And it had far exceeded that.

For her first song that day, she was wearing the same clothes as the other dancers, but in the crowd, everyone could tell that she was different.

A dance where all the flowers in the southern country fell.

After returning home, Chen Huaji wrote in his diary.

13th of June. I remember when I first met you. You were beautiful alone in the crowd.

“Today, I met the true love of my life, miss Liu.”

“This time it’s true love, Yingluo.”

it’s different from the teasing he did to Yan Xiaoyao, Chen Bailin, Dai luonong, sui Yangliu, Chu Qingyan, and Xiao Mingyue.

“I swear,”

“While you’re at it, I’ll void all the oaths I made before.”

……

Seven days later, when all the scholars in the city were extremely curious, the peach Valley building let miss Liu perform again.

And after the performance, they would choose to chat with the guests on the peach blossom list to gain popularity.

The peach Valley floor’s gifts were replaced with peach flowers made of silk. Ten taels of silver could be exchanged for a peach flower. When scholars met a girl they liked, they could give her a peach flower.

The front-row guests who donated more could be on the peach blossom ranking.

The person that miss Liu chose to talk to might not be the one with the most gifts, but it must be on the peach blossom list.

On this day, Chen Huaiji was not on the list.

He donated an expensive pearl hairpin in exchange for 20 peach flowers. If it was any other girl, it would definitely be enough to be on the list.

However, miss little Liu’s popularity was really extraordinary.

Although Chaotian imperial court’s salary was very high, his actions were still not enough compared to those rich people who spent thousands of gold.

Thus, he wrote it down.

21st June. If I didn’t feel inferior when I was young and promising, I would have a lot of wives and concubines.

today, I’ve experienced the pain of poverty. I donated a 200 tael Pearl Flower, but it’s not enough to be on the list.

“There are too many people who like miss Xiao Liu.”

“But this also shows that I have good taste.”

“I hope she can wear that Pearl Flower.”

“This way, when she is meeting with the other scholars.”

“I can also feel a sense of participation.”

……

Another seven days passed. This time, Chen Huaji arrived at the peach Valley restaurant early. Before miss little Liu appeared, he had already donated an entire month’s salary.

Finally, he made it onto the list, and even occupied the first place on the list for a time.

It lasted for three breaths.

It was a pity that he was not selected for the final segment.

After all, there were a hundred scholars on the list.

Thus, he wrote it down.

28th of June. I’ve used up all my luck to meet you in my lifetime.

“I’ve finally F * cked miss little Liu today.”

“The board.”

when she muttered my name and expressed her gratitude …

“I feel that life is different from the rest.”

“Now that I think about it, it seems like Yingluo.”

“The cold congee in the pot is fragrant.”

“The pickled vegetables in the rice bowl are getting sweeter.”

“The steamed buns from last night have become soft.”

“Even though the house is leaking rain, it’s still exceptionally warm.”

“I’ve decided.”

“Starting tomorrow, I’ll be working two jobs.”

……

After another seven days, Chen Huaiji dragged his exhausted body to the peach Valley restaurant.

Recently, he had been on duty in the Imperial court during the day, and at night, he had been on duty to guard the courtyard of another large family.

He only slept for two hours a day because of the powerful soul of an early stage divine unity realm cultivator.

In fact, a true divine unity realm cultivator would be respected.

Just by hanging an offering sign in a large family and occasionally helping out once or twice, they could earn a considerable income every month.

However, Yingluo

Chen Huaiji only knew the five elements escape technique.

The offerings that large families needed were to deter others or to guard their homes.

At the very least, he had to have a sacred art to scare people.

And Chen Huaiji was a professional in breaking down selling Gu.

The damage output was all based on talismans.

Hmm …

He had no choice but to lower his status and become a night guard.

The family that hired him was afraid of thieves at night because their house was very big, but the madams in the family were also very afraid of dogs.

A night-use chenhuaiji perfectly filled this gap.

When he walked into the peach Valley restaurant, he was carrying all his savings in his arms.

These savings barely allowed him to reach the bottom of miss Xiao Liu’s ranking.

When the emcee announced his name in the last segment, he was in disbelief.

I’ve been chosen?

I’ve been chosen?

I’ve been chosen?

I can’t believe I have such an opportunity in my life to chat with miss Xiao Liu face to face (separated by the screen) for two hours.

Oh my God.

It would be worth it even if he died.

He was still dizzy when the maidservant led him upstairs and went around to miss Xiao Liu’s living room.

Miss Liu gently asked him to sit.

He sat down as if he had just woken up from a dream, and then he gave a big smile.

This smile was warm and pure.

Through the faint screen of flowers and birds, he could see miss Xiao Liu’s graceful figure and elegant face, as if they were right in front of him.

He almost didn’t know what he had said.

But every sentence was deeply engraved in his mind.

After returning home, he excitedly wrote down.

5th of July. I want to take you to the romantic Liuhua River, then we’ll go to shenluo and chaoge together.

“Today, I was chosen to have a chat with miss Liu.”

I said a total of 68 sentences and 782 words to her. 80% of them were from me and 20% were from her.

“In her words, other than ‘Oh’,’ hehe’, and ‘and then’, there were more than 40 words.”

“It’s full of dried goods.”

“I asked her a lot of considerate and polite questions.”

“For example,”

“Have you eaten?”

“What did you eat?”

“What are you doing?”

“How much do you earn in a month?”

“How old are you?”

“How many people in the family?”

“……”

“After this long talk, I have a very deep understanding of miss Xiao Liu.”

I believe that my interesting and meaningful conversation must have left a deep impression on her.

“This is only our first conversation.”

“The future is long.”

“The only regret is …”

“She’s too tired.”

“We’ve only chatted for an hour.”

“She said she wanted to sleep early today.”

“I’ll go take a shower first.”

……

More than a month later, Chen Huaji’s longing for miss Xiao Liu intensified.

He believed that after the last time they parted, miss Xiao Liu would also miss him a little.

In the past month, miss Liu’s fame had grown.

The speed at which he worked two jobs could no longer keep up with the speed at which the number of scholars who liked her grew.

He had never been on miss Liu’s peach blossom ranking again.

However, he never missed a single one of miss little Liu’s performances.

When he heard that she had replaced Xiao Mingyue to become this year’s courtesan under the moon, he had been overjoyed.

Even though Xiao Mingyue was his last true love, he still loved her.

But,

The most important thing for a man was to be loyal.

There could only be one tongue and one true love.

Mid-Autumn Festival.

He waited and waited.

When the full moon rose into the sky, it split through the clouds.

When the lanterns were first lit, thousands of colorful lights appeared.

When she was draped in the bright moon and slowly descended from the sky along with the transparent ribbon, she would be able to turn all living beings upside down.

That dance was devastatingly beautiful.

Like the thousands of spectators, he was intoxicated by it.

However, he had never expected that after that dance, she would fall to the ground and reveal her demon body.

The crowd was in a state of chaos, and the Chaotian que disciples present immediately arrested her and put her in prison.

He was also a disciple of the heavenly imperial court, but he was dumbfounded.

So Yingluo was a Vixen?

He returned to his residence like a walking corpse. After pondering for a long time, he made up his mind.

He believed that miss Xiao Liu was a kind woman. Whether she was a human or a demon, she had never done anything outrageous.

However, according to the laws of Heluo, demons who sneaked into the city and caused chaos like this would either be exiled or sold.

He couldn’t watch miss Xiao Liu become a slave!

He had to save her!

Chaotian Palace’s prison was heavily guarded.

Fortunately, miss Liu was only locked up on the first floor.

With his escape technique, it shouldn’t be difficult to bring her in and out. As for the key to the shackles, it was not difficult for the mole to get it.

After making a thorough plan in his heart.

He wrote again.

15th of August. You know that even if the heavy rain turns the city upside down, I will give you an embrace.

“I’ve decided to save miss little Liu.”

“Even though she was born in a brothel and turned into a monster.”

“But I believe she’s a good girl.”

“Although it’s dangerous, as long as she can see my true feelings through this Prison Break, it’ll be worth it.”

“I’ve decided to …”

“From now on, if you give birth to a boy, you’ll be called Chen Qing. If you give birth to a girl, you’ll be called Chen Lian.”

……

That night.

He barged into Chaotian Palace prison, charged into the enemy lines, and saved miss little Liu.

He didn’t expect miss Liu to not recognize him at first sight.

Hmm …

It was normal for her to be in a daze after the ups and downs she had just experienced.

Fortunately, she remembered her identity when she mentioned her name.

It meant that he still had a very unique existence for her.

Am I right?

However, even though he remembered his identity …

She didn’t seem to trust him.

Hmm …

It was normal for a weak woman like her to feel insecure in the human world.

As long as he slowly revealed his friendliness and sincerity, she would probably be melted by his love very quickly.

Am I right?

At this moment, a young Daoist priest appeared.

Suddenly, she had a lot of trust in that little Daoist.

He even pulled her back and told her that the little Daoist was not a bad person.

That little Daoist looked like nothing but handsome.

Hmm …

As a woman from a brothel, it was normal for her to feel close to ‘cultivators’.

Am I right?

The little Daoist priest walked over. He was clearly expressionless.

His smile was warm and pure.

However, miss Liu subconsciously moved closer to him.

He was getting closer and closer.

She was still leaning.

Don’t rely on me, I beg you.

F * ck.

Hmm …

Since she said she wasn’t a demoness, it was possible that she wasn’t used to her snake body. It was normal for her to lean on nearby objects.

Am I right?

He looked at miss little Liu leaning gently against the little Daoist priest and seemed to be getting happier as they chatted.

Chen Huaiji’s warm and innocent smile disappeared. The corners of his mouth gradually curved downward, his nostrils gradually expanded, and tears could be seen in his eyes.

He silently remembered it in his heart.

16th of August. I shouldn’t be in the temple. I should be at the bottom of the temple.

“I went through great pains to save miss Xiao Liu.”

“But she’s closer to a little Daoist than to me.”

“But Yingluo doesn’t matter,”

“As long as you tell me later that you’re innocent.”

“I’ll definitely believe you.”
