Let's have a bet!

Gao Shen placed his hand on his heart, with a fake hurt expression, "Why are you staying away from me?" He asked with a tone sulking, which did not really match with the sly glint of his eyes, "And what's with the face veil?" his expression not approving the blue face veil that she currently wore.

'What is there to hide for? Our Mei'er is beautiful!' Gao Shen thought suspiciously.

When she appeared distracted, while looking at his Cultivation Restriction Talisman, he moved swiftly, trying to grab the face veil off her face.

Gao Shen smirked, "I will just find out for myself!" she might be hiding a pimple. Girls normally were very conscious with minor blemishes.

With no avail though, after his first and second attempt as he was just deflected by Gao Lan Mei.

Trying again, he became ecstatic. Whenever his hand came closer to snatch the veil, she either dodged, maneuvering her body swiftly by a side step or used a flick of her hand to throw his arm away or any part of his that she could reach.

Not strong enough to really push him away, but she used the momentum of her flickered hand to be pushed back intentionally!

"Hohoho! What is the meaning of this?" surprised with his niece's action, he was also happy that she could take care of herself with the way she moved.

"Brother you trained Mei'er well!" He exclaimed with delight and did not notice Gao Qi shaking his head, denying this claim.

There were no wasted movements, every small action used energy smartly and did what needed to be done. He grinned at her, enjoying the interaction. Defense and attack! She got a good master!

Even though she could not cultivate, if she knew good martial arts, as a woman staying in the mortal domain it's already enough.

With a lift of a brow after moving backward, "Third uncle, do not laugh like that. Did the Immortal Domain change you into an old soul? I only know that old men laugh like that!"

With a frown, "If I am old what do you call your father then?" Pointing his finger to Gap Qi, who now just received another surprise with the current situation.

'When did Mei'er learn all this?' Gao Qi was confused. That was also the case with his wife also had the same thoughts as him. Though despite the confusing, Li Mao looked more concerned. 

Gao Shen just brushed the surprised expression off, thinking that his brother's expression was due to the 'old man' insult. How would he know that his niece should not have known any martial arts?

He also did not have any idea about the incidents from a couple of days ago.

"Old man! Let's have a bet!" tone playful and teasing. Gao Lan Mei might seem carefree at that moment, but she was concerned with two things. One, her parents. She would need to spew more lies because of her knowledge of martial arts.

Second, her third uncle Gao Shen. Based on her memory, though he's very playful, he was also overprotective of his family. Was he here because of the assassination attempt?

With a smirk, "A bet? Great! What do you want to offer?" crossing his arms to his chest, staring at Gao Lan Mei with interest.

He just got home, did not even get to eat anything yet and he was already being challenged? Hehe, a lot has sure changed.

"Three attempts to remove my face veil, if you are able to do it, you won, if not I win." She said challenging.

Grinning at her, "Heh, if you win I will follow three orders no questions asked. What's your bet? Make it enticing niece!" Gao Shen was confident of his skills when he takes things seriously.

"I will do the same. You should not use any spiritual energy though!" reminding their biggest difference.

Nodding his head, having a hard time toning down the smile on his face, "Great! There should be a judge then. Cheating is not allowed!"
