Zhao Huai sniffed the fragrance at the tip of his nose and was slightly lost in thought.
The screen of the cold plum and snow scene picture obscured the beauty's appearance, but one could vaguely see a silhouette with a beautiful figure, which was quite a bit better than Zhao Huai had expected.
"Your Excellency has come."
A soft voice with magnetism rang out, like an oriole guffawing.
Hearing the voice, Zhao Huai reacted and turned back to pull the door shut before arching his hand and smiling:
"My humble self, Zhao Huai, meet the girl."
"Im Qing Han, I'm pleased to meet you."
The voice responded in this manner, her body stood up and owed slightly, but to Zhao Huai's surprise, this woman did not squirm and hide behind the screen, not daring to see anyone.
Instead, she was generous and directly stood up and walked out, actually having an inexplicable atmosphere.
The silhouette walked straight out, a pair of rather powerful danfeng eyes staring straight at Zhao Huai at the door.
Even Zhao Huai had to admit that these eyes were indeed very pretty, extremely beautiful and radiant, making people unable to move their eyes.
The only strange thing was that Zhao Huai felt an invisible sense of oppression from the other party's eyes.
However, this does not affect the other side of the appearance, she is also very beautiful, white plum long skirt extraordinarily gorgeous, beautiful face, flawless like a piece of precious jade, lightly gathered cloud temples, beautiful eyebrow, thin lips like cherries like rosy.
Dustless and dirt-free, ethereal as a fairy, just like the nymphs that come out of the scrolls.
Is she really my blind date?
What about the promised average?
Zhao Huai's eyes were calm, but his heart was full of questions and surprise.
He felt that this woman was far too beautiful than what he had seen in the picture book and didn't look like it, he couldn't have walked through the wrong door, could he?
"Don't stand, Mr. Zhao, sit down first."
The woman smiled faintly, seeming to have seen what Zhao Huai was thinking at a glance, but she still reached out and poured a cup of hot tea for the two of them respectively.
"Let's introduce ourselves first, my daughter's name is Qinghan, with a single surname, the word Yu."
"Yu Qinghan, Miss Yu?"
"Not bad."
Yu Qinghan lightly nodded her head, both the corners of her mouth emerged into a shallow smile:
"Your Excellency looks puzzled."
Zhao Huai shook his head, "It's not doubtful, I just feel that the girl, is not quite the same as what I saw in the picture book."
For him, it didn't matter who was sitting across from him, because his purpose was just to spend the afternoon here peacefully.
"Where is it different?"
Yu Qinghan's gaze revealed curiosity.
Zhao Huai laughed, "Generally speaking, when a man and woman meet for something like this, it's inevitable that a lot of things will be born that will make people laugh and cry, and the girl can be so much better looking than in the picture book, that it made me a bit surprised."
Upon hearing this, the smile at the corner of Yu Qinghan's mouth thickened by one point, then she also said:
I also feel that you looks are different from what I imagined, not like what the matchmaker said, I originally thought that you would be thinner and weaker, but I didn't expect to see that he actually looks this good, and his essence is much better than a normal person."
Her first impression of Zhao Huai was quite good, with a hint of goodwill.
Of course she knew that she looked good, she didn't know how many people she had met before, and without exception, the performance was terrible.
When normal men saw themselves, they were either cowed by their eyes, or they didn't dare to look at each other, and made a wriggling appearance, simply unlike a man.
Either that, or some coarse people who didn't know how to be polite, seeing her as a woman, relying on having a few family connections, they repeatedly offended her.
And this gentleman in front of her with a clear gaze, not only can he communicate normally to the eye, but his speech is also quite extraordinary, and his looks are not bad either, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, quite handsome, still very much to her liking.
However, Yu Qinghan's words caught Zhao Huai's attention.
Of course he was clear about his own situation, as a cultivator, with his realm reaching the ninth level of qi cultivation, could his qi and essence be bad?
Nowadays, his chest breaking boulders, flying over walls, and punching a thousand pounds are all trivial, after all, his physical body has already reached initial saturation.
It was just that this girl's eyesight was surprisingly good, such details could also be felt, indicating that the other party's strength was not low either.
"I have nothing to do, and when I wake up early every day, I will practice some of the outer sect's horizontal boxing techniques as a way to exercise my body, so my body is relatively good."
Zhao Huai's face was not red, his heart did not jump, and he lied in this way.
Hiding his cultivation was a form of protection for himself.
He didn't understand the other party, and he needed to have reservations when they first met.
"Oh? Your Excellency is also interested in cultivation?"
Surprise flashed in Yu Qinghan's eyes, and he smiled with amusement.
This smile, more sincere than the previous polite smile, as if the surprise after meeting a confidant.
"Eh it's hard to believe that the girl also practiced martial arts?"
Zhao Huai politely and without losing his embarrassment asked back.
"That's right, Qinghan has been practicing since she was young and has been following her father in the army for more than ten years."
Yu Qinghan lightly smiled, "I forgot to mention, my father was a veteran general of the dynasty, but because of a mistake, he retired, it's all in the past, but our family is still considered to be from a general's family, with generations practicing martial arts, and my eldest brother is still serving in the army today."
After saying that, Yu Qinghan's eyes had a ray of worry in them.
Because of her own reasons, she was really worried that scaring the other party away was not something she wanted to see.
Unsurprisingly, after hearing this, Zhao Huai's eyelids suddenly jumped and his heart cried out for a good guy.
There was a father who was a general, and his elder brother was still in the service and had practiced martial arts for generations.
Isn't this a proper general's family?
This woman was also a general's daughter, not a small person.
Wouldn't it be wrong to contact such a person in one's own capacity?
Zhao Huai thought this in his mind, but still half-joked, "With the girl's condition, it's hard to imagine that she would actually come to a marriage matchmaking center."
"I snuck out on my own."
Yu Qinghan's eyes dimmed.
"Sneaked out?"
Hearing this answer, Zhao Huai froze slightly.
"Could it be that your family didn't treat you well?"
Although this world was mainly based on Immortal Cultivation, the children of large families were still clothed in fine clothes, prosperous and wealthy on the side, and with privileges pulled full circle, they definitely wouldn't have a bad time.
"No, it's just that I'm tired of the life at home and don't like to compete." Yu Qinghan shook her head.
Zhao Huai let out a bitter smile and did not reply.
Yu Qinghan's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and in three words, she evoked memories, and as if she was lamenting to herself:
"Gongzi, do you know, in fact, when I was a child I didn't like practicing martial arts, I was like those women, I like rouge and powder, I like to tinker with some embroidery and needlework, I like to listen to the mouth of those storytellers of old age together, the fishing boat sings in the evening, and the words in the book of the long long, long, long, long, long, long, long, are all what I fantasized about."
"But my father told me, born in the family, must bear part of the responsibility, the daughter should also be self-improvement, the pursuit of the great cause, the ordinary people live in the day does not belong to me, from that day on, I began to practice martial arts cultivation."
"I originally didn't like practicing martial arts, because it was bitter and tiring, and I disliked killing even more, because I often had nightmares at night and couldn't sleep."
"Sometimes I would think, if I wasn't born in such a family, how good it would be, every day I could sleep until noon, in the afternoon I could listen to tunes, go shopping, read the books I wanted to read, catch up with interesting plays, eat the food I wanted to eat, it doesn't matter if it's a rough meal, even if it is unattended, even if it's poor, it's better than being in a battlefield and exhausting myself."
"Growing up, when I reached the goal in my father's mouth, I realized that what he said is not what I want, it's just that my hands are stained with too much blood, long ago and with the practice of martial arts can not be separated from the habit that has been developed."
"Now, I'm tired, I just want to find someone, live a lifetime of peace and quiet days only, so I ran out."
Yu Qinghan said here, her voice gradually small, but the memorial in her eyes did not dissipate for a long time.
