Chapter 306 I wish you happiness
Niangrong was both excited and nervous at this moment.

There was no hatred between her and Wang Li, but Wang Li insisted on getting her to marry him.

I had to give Wang Li a difficult problem so that he would give up.

For her, there is no one more suitable than Cheng Jiao in front of her.

He is a lustful and shameless person like Wang Li, and his strength is so strong that even her father is afraid of him.

The only worry was that if Cheng Jiao was too heavy-handed, Wang Li would have to lie in bed for several months.

She felt a little reluctant, but she really didn't want to marry someone she didn't like. She was not Lian'er who would just accept everything.

Lu Buwei originally wanted to stop this farce. After all, with Cheng Jiao's strength of killing top warriors as easy as drinking water, Wang Li's mediocre skills were simply not enough.

But he always had doubts about whether Cheng Jiao was a celestial being.

He could not help but whisper in the old slave's ear: "Watch carefully."

The old slave nodded slightly. He knew what Lu Buwei meant. He wanted him to confirm Cheng Jiao's strength level.

Because we were in such a hurry that night and were only focused on escaping, we were not sure about Cheng Jiao's true strength.

It is hard to tell whether it is just a short-lived outburst or real strength.

After all, if Cheng Jiao was really a celestial being, it seemed impossible for him to escape with Niang Rong.

He was more inclined to believe that Cheng Jiao had some secret method that allowed him to display strength comparable to that of a god.

If it was really as he thought, then the success rate of Lu Buwei's proposal to use the army in Zhao State to cooperate with top masters to encircle and kill Cheng Jiao would be greatly increased.

Without becoming a god, who can form an army by himself and defeat a thousand with one?

Especially an army with top experts.

Although Wang Li was a little impulsive, his brain was still working well.

Seeing Cheng Jiao being nonchalant and extremely confident, he thought that Cheng Jiao might have broken through to the innate realm just like himself.

But it doesn't matter. Unlike Cheng Jiao who lives a life of luxury, his strength was earned in Xianyang City. Even his father may not be able to defeat him now, let alone a tender and delicate young man.

Cheng Jiao frowned and said in disdain: "Hurry up, why are you so timid! Didn't General Wang teach you what it means to move forward courageously?"

Wang Li was furious when he heard Cheng Jiao scolding him like his father.

"drink!"

Without any further hesitation, Wang Li threw a punch, which contained the fist intent that he had just learned.

If you don’t take action, then don’t take action. But once you do take action, you must go all out!

This is the art of war his father taught him.

Hesitate and you will lose!

At this moment, after Wang Li threw the punch, Cheng Jiao just brought the teacup to his mouth.

Niang Rong frowned, thinking that Cheng Jiao was too arrogant.

Are you planning to lose on purpose?
Thinking of Cheng Jiao's evil intentions, Niang Rong couldn't help but feel worried, fearing that Cheng Jiao would trap her.

Do you really want her to marry that guy Wang Li?
Compared to Niangrong's anxiety, Yanfei still held the knife and peeled the peaches.

She could sense that Cheng Jiao's hand holding the teacup was imbued with spiritual power.

If Wang Li didn't stop and hit Cheng Jiao's back of the hand, he would be injured by the recoil force.

If Wang Li was not injured and Cheng Jiao was injured by chance, then the paring knife in her hand would have ended up on Wang Li's body.

Lu Buwei and the old slave stared at Cheng Jiao without blinking, trying to find signs that Cheng Jiao was not yet a celestial being.

Niang Rong has closed her eyes.

It seemed that she was going to be tricked to death by Cheng Jiao.

Someone's powerful punch is about to hit you in the face, but you are still drinking tea. It's so irritating!
If there was a way to regret it, she would have wanted to act coquettishly to Cheng Jiao and ask him to be more serious and stay calm.

No matter how much you joke, don't joke about her happiness for the rest of her life.

The old slave's eyes became sharp, and an incredible expression appeared on his old face.

How did Cheng Jiao do it?

How is it possible that he could block a full-strength punch from Wang Li, who has practiced external skills, without getting hurt just by relying on his physical fitness?
This is not internal force.

It seems like a legendary power recorded in books, called spiritual power.

It is said that this is a power that can only be mastered by peerless masters in the realm of heaven and man.

A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Wang Li's mouth.

My mind went blank.

Is he just weak, or has Cheng Jiao's strength reached an incredible level?

Wang Li staggered back a few steps, and his punching arm fell down limply.

It wasn't disabled, but I couldn't muster any strength for a short period of time.

"What exactly are your strengths!?"

Wang Li looked straight at Cheng Jiao. At this moment, he forgot why he had fought with Cheng Jiao. He just wanted to know how big the gap between him and Cheng Jiao was.

Cheng Jiao put down the teacup without spilling a drop of water. "According to the classification in the martial arts world, above the top, below the gods."

When the old slave and Lu Buwei heard Cheng Jiao's upright words, their first thought was that Cheng Jiao was deliberately concealing his true strength.

Cheng Jiao didn't think so much.

Wang Li asked, so he told him.

At most, he would show his strength to the Wang family, hoping that the Wang family would not be blind. If Lu Buwei wanted a marriage alliance, he would just stick to it.

Wang Li was a little depressed. He thought he had a great talent for martial arts, but compared to Cheng Jiao, he was nothing and no different from a waste.

With weak steps, he came to Lu Niangrong, who had not yet come to her senses.

With difficulty, he said, "I wish you happiness."

After saying that, he turned and left.

I thought today was my big day, but in just one hour, I was devastated.

The girl I like likes someone else, and I may never be able to catch up with that person.

For a young boy who has not experienced much in the world, the feeling is mixed.

But good family education helped him to control his emotions that were about to get out of control.

He has already been defeated miserably and cannot lose his composure any more!
Niangrong didn't care about Wang Li's mental journey, she only knew that she didn't have to get married, and her joy was beyond words.

However, Cheng Jiao's light words made Niang Rong's smile freeze on her face.

"Who just said that if Wang Li can't beat me, she has to marry me."

Lu Niangrong heard Cheng Jiao teasing her about what she had just said.

Inexplicably, she thought of the joke she and Meng Niang had made in private about whether they should marry Cheng Jiao together. Her face turned red and her ears felt hot.

He retorted weakly: "I didn't!"

Lu Buwei watched Wang Li leave and Cheng Jiao and Niang Rong flirting with each other, and a black line appeared on his forehead.

When I thought that Niang Rong might fall in love with Cheng Jiao, I cried out in pain. What a misfortune for our family!
Let’s not talk about whether Niang Rong and Cheng Jiao have that intention or not. Even if they do, so what?

He now seriously suspected that Cheng Jiao had seduced his daughter and wanted to use it to blackmail him!
We can't wait any longer. If Cheng Jiao succeeds and Niang Rong is deeply trapped, there will be no hope for her.

I am old, it doesn't matter if I die.

But he could never accept that Niangrong, at such a young age, had become a political victim.

Cheng Jiao didn't know that he had been labeled by Lu Buwei as having ulterior motives towards Niang Rong.

Yan Fei looked at Niang Rong, who was shyly lowering her brows, and thought to herself, this girl couldn't be really interested in Cheng Jiao.

Then he looked at Cheng Jiao helplessly and put the peeled peach in Cheng Jiao's hand.

He whispered, "You really make me worry."

Cheng Jiao held the peach and asked from the side, "What are you worried about? I didn't destroy Wang Li, so don't worry."

Yan Fei smiled and said, "It's okay, just eat yours."

She didn't care whether Wang Li was disabled or not. Even if he died in front of her, she wouldn't have any other emotions. She then helped Cheng Jiao clean up the scene.

Niang Rong looked at Cheng Jiao and Yan Fei being affectionate with each other and snorted softly, not knowing why she couldn't be happy.

Lu Buwei really couldn't stand Niang Rong's behavior. Does he, Old Lu, still have any shame?

"Niang Rong! Go back to the house!"

Niang Rong stuck out her tongue slightly, not daring to jump around in front of her father anymore. She glared at Cheng Jiao who was still enjoying Yan Fei's service, and left the hall.

Although Cheng Jiao didn't see it, Lu Buwei, who had been looking at Niang Rong, twitched his eyes.

His daughter was actually jealous, damn Cheng Jiao!

He already has other women, but he still comes to mess with his only daughter.

Seeing that Cheng Jiao treated this place as his own, even Lu Buwei, who was very shrewd, couldn't help but feel impatient.

"Lord Chang'an, is there anything else? It's getting late, and I still have state affairs to attend to."

Cheng Jiao straightened his body and said with a smile, "I was so busy helping Niang Rong deal with trivial matters that I forgot about the important things. I hope Prime Minister Lu will not blame me."

Lu Buwei's face was full of unhappiness.

He seriously suspected that Cheng Jiao did it on purpose. Today's farce might have been a show staged by Niang Rong and Cheng Jiao under his nose.

It was a terrible day for him.

The only good news is that Cheng Jiao admitted it himself. After a simple analysis by this old slave, Cheng Jiao's strength is probably above the top level but below that of a celestial being, and he possesses some of the methods of a celestial being.

As for this, as long as Cheng Jiao arrived in Zhao State, he would have plenty of ways to deal with it.

He just didn't believe that Cheng Jiao, who had not yet reached the level of a celestial being, could withstand the encirclement and suppression of an army led by an expert.

"Changan Jun, what do you want me to help you with? Just tell me directly."

Cheng Jiao smiled faintly and said, "I came here today specifically for someone. I hope Prime Minister Lu can be willing to let go."
