Protect Our Patriarch

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss, but I'm just an average-looking guy," Wang Shouzhe replied humbly and politely. Being naturally handsome, he was used to compliments and didn't feel much about them.

"Don't be so modest. Even among the handsome men of the Immortal Dynasty, those who can match your looks and temperament are less than a handful. Moreover, you have a serene and natural aura that makes people feel close to you," the masked woman smiled gently. "If it weren't for the age difference and the fact that you have a large family, I might have admired you and pursued you."

Wang Shouzhe was speechless. Are women from the Immortal Dynasty always this direct? Sigh, being handsome really is a troublesome thing, and this trouble has followed him for over a hundred years.

Meanwhile, Long Wuji leaned forward, seemingly intrigued by the mysterious and unfathomable woman from the Immortal Dynasty. He said earnestly, "I am even more handsome than Shouzhe, with a wild and unruly charm. Most importantly, I'm still unmarried and childless... Miss, perhaps you could consider me..."

Before he could finish, the woman glanced at him coldly, "Your looks and build are passable, but you're too dark, too rough, and you have an air of a mountain bandit that I find repulsive."

"Miss, you're mistaken," Long Wuji patted his chest. "This bandit aura is just to cover up my soft and vulnerable heart. My tan is from the romance of sailing the seas. Plus, I'm straightforward and sincere, unlike Shouzhe, who is crafty and would sell you while you thank him."

"?" Wang Shouzhe was speechless and retorted, "The royal bloodline's personality is as indescribable as ever."

"Royal bloodline?" The masked woman looked at Long Wuji with a peculiar gaze, "Are you of the Great Qian's royal bloodline?"
