Chapter 1246: Chapter 1244: Fancy a Girl?

"Why are you looking for her?"

Shen Er looked at the other person, his heart almost sinking to the bottom. He initially had some suspicions, but now it seemed he was almost certain.

Yes, it’s Fifth Brother!

The one who stayed on the Path of Yin Yang for over a month and returned with a completely changed personality. He appeared optimistic and cheerful, making all his brothers happy for him. But unexpectedly, there might be other circumstances!

Back then, Chen Qing’s influence was so weak, just a newly risen figure at that time. Whether it was the Siao Family Emperor with vast territories, or the Princess Royale Siao Mingyue who trapped all the soldiers, or Duke of Qin Lumings, they were all extremely promising figures, not to mention other ancient ones.

Why, at that time, choose to place the pawn on Fifth Brother?

But in any case, it now seems that’s exactly what those monsters chose!

"How should I say it..." Fifth Brother scratched his head embarrassingly, "I, uh, recently took a liking to a girl..."

Shen Er: "......"

"The girl came from hard times, rescued by a caravan. As we traveled along, I started liking her. Don’t laugh at me, brother, for all my years, it’s the first time I’ve felt this way about a woman. Those guys in the caravan laughed at me for a while when they knew I was a newbie..."

Shen Er was stunned, not expecting the excuse the other party found.

At that moment, besides the chill, there was also a bitterness in his heart.

Back then, the Shen Family, for its own interests, almost completely hid Fifth Brother, leaving him with no opportunity to meet outsiders, let alone girls. Now, Fifth Brother is over two hundred years old, yet he’s still a newbie...

Thinking back, they as his brothers indeed neglected him too much.

But using Fifth Brother’s purest feelings to deceive himself, it made him even more furious.

"What is the girl you like like?" Shen Er maintained his composure, his tone carrying a hint of curiosity.

This guy can replace Fifth Brother and stay around him for over ten years, meaning it must have Fifth Brother’s memories. According to the master’s intelligence, the creature is parasitic, like the Ancient Demon Clan. Maybe, Fifth Brother’s memories had been thoroughly consumed and stripped away by it.

Just don’t know if the current body, if Fifth Brother is still alive?

If he is alive, at all costs, he must save Fifth Brother!

"How should I describe her...." Fifth Elder Shen scratched his head shyly, "That girl is a little aggressive for her size, yet covered in thorns. She seems delicate and frail, at first appearing gentle and virtuous. Initially, she was indeed that way; her voice.....soft and gentle. But once she got familiar, she became domineering, quite fierce, and she loves to be physical!"

"Physical?" Shen Er was stunned. Fifth Brother actually likes this kind of girl?

He guessed this girl might be the parasite’s excuse, but for Fifth Brother’s body to accept it, it should be someone he genuinely likes.

"Exactly!" Shen Wu said viciously, "Women are all pretenders; the initial gentleness is all an act. But hey... even if she’s fierce, she’s not overdo it. It’s just a bad habit she likes, pinching the flesh on my waist. You don’t know, Second Brother, how much it hurts!"

Shen Er was speechless for a moment. Fifth Brother was still afraid of his wife. Even though he was complaining in front of him, when talking about that girl’s fierceness, there was a smile in his eyes, obviously deeply involved.

That girl must be protected. If Fifth Brother could still survive, this marriage must be set up for Fifth Brother somehow.

"What does this have to do with you looking for Ali?" Shen Er asked with a puzzled expression.

"Well...." Fifth Brother hesitated but still said, "Here’s the thing: that girl’s family suffered great losses, with just an old mother and younger brother left. Her mother asked for a house in Lyuzhou as a dowry. The girl...didn’t contradict her mother. Though she seemed guilty, I could tell she also wanted me to give up that house."

"Unwilling to do it?" Shen Er raised an eyebrow.

A house in Lyuzhou, what’s that to the Shen Family? Their business, while not monopolizing Jiangnan, was still one of the big players. As long as future generations don’t squander, wealth for thousands of years shouldn’t be a problem.

"The house is a small matter, but she’s being difficult with me over it, and I’m uncomfortable with that. I know she’s difficult between her mother and brother, but I just want to know what exactly is in her heart, whether I am more important to her, or her mother and brother, what she truly thinks."

"You, this guy, can be so conflicted?" Shen Er glared at him, "If you like her, marry her. What’s a house worth worrying about how she feels inside? That girl has been raised till now, you’ve known her for how many days, can you outweigh her parents? Her family’s actions might not be right, but they must be difficult too. If your family’s assets were limited, you could hesitate a bit, but with what you have now, what’s there to be conflicted about?"

"Besides, her family surely doesn’t know your identity, right?"

"Uh..." Fifth Elder Shen was stunned, "How did you know?"

"Isn’t it obvious?" Shen Er sneered, "If they knew you were the famous Fifth Master Shen, with such a status, would they dare ask for a dowry? Just being able to marry their daughter in brings endless glory and wealth. As long as her mom isn’t foolish, she wouldn’t do this kind of thing!"

"Ahem...."

"Fact is, you’re also testing that girl, your intentions aren’t pure either, so why bother her? Everyone has their own selfish motives."

"But...I’m just not reconciled!" Fifth Elder Shen said, his neck red, "Second Brother, you know, after all these years, I’ve only taken a liking to one. I just want to know what she thinks, Second Brother.....help me?"

Looking at his expression, Shen Er felt a tinge of bitterness. In all these years, it was the first time he saw Fifth Brother pleading with him this way.

This monster... truly detestable!!!

"Fine!" Shen Er hid the deep chill in his eyes, turning his head, "Wait until I finish up these next few days..."

"Second Brother, the girl’s already in Lyuzhou, and Lyuzhou is chaotic now. I want to settle things quickly, reveal my identity, and take her to Nanyang City to hide."

"You..." Shen Er sighed, "Alright, stay put, wait for an hour!"

"Alright!" Fifth Elder Shen immediately grinned, rushing out of the hall.

Shen Er watched his back, his expression extremely complex, Fifth Brother... you must be alive!

Putting down the documents in his hand, he immediately communicated with Chen Qing, explaining the situation.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Qing arrived at the Provincial Government Office.

"Master, I suspect it’s Fifth Brother!"

"You have to be sure!" Chen Qing said gravely, "What if it’s wrong..."

"That’s why we still need Ali. I think...Ali should be able to tell, but...there are some risks."

Chen Qing nodded at this, "Where is Ali?"
