"Aren't you with Zhao Hao?" Qin Chuan asked.
"He's not right for me. I don't like him. I feel you're better than him. You have great potential, and I have faith in you. Although it seems like you're marrying above your station now, you'll definitely succeed in the future, and no one will say you're marrying above your station then. I don't mind, and I'll treat you well," Jiang Ranran said emotionally.
After hearing Jiang Ranran's words, Qin Chuan only had one word to say, so he said it to her:
"Get lost!"
Qin Chuan turned and left immediately. He had no intention of arguing with her; this kind of brainless, arrogant, and stupid woman was the most annoying.
"Qin Chuan, you just wait, I'll make you pay!" Jiang Ranran shouted loudly.
Many people around watched, and she finally stomped her foot and left.
If she were normal, even if she liked someone, he wouldn't care, even for the sake of his teacher. But her actions disgusted Qin Chuan.
Back at the Jiang family, Qin Chuan went to see the Palace Master.
"Chuan'er's back!" The Palace Master greeted Qin Chuan casually, inviting him to sit down.
"Teacher, have you been busy lately?"
"The Martial Arts Exchange Conference is being prepared. Don't leave during this time. This conference is grand; it's not just in Chuzhou, but many surrounding areas are participating. Moreover, the conference isn't just about martial arts exchanges; there will also be exchanges of treasures, pills, and other
valuable items. It's a grand event." Qin Chuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this. This was unexpected. He possessed quite a few items, including pills and many useless treasures.
Some of them were quite good; Qin Chuan's Chaos Furnace could refine them. For example, those useless or low-grade treasures could be combined and refined to create a new treasure.
Of course, this new treasure's abilities would be biased towards one type of refinement, or rather, its abilities would be diverse, but its power would fluctuate. Therefore, even at its current level, the Chaos Furnace's power was limited, and it couldn't refine a treasure that would astound Qin Chuan.
So, this time, he could try his luck at the conference; perhaps he could find some unexpected treasures.
Jiang Ranran returned, looking dejected and pale. She went straight to her mother.
"Ranran, what's wrong? Who upset her?" Madam Jiang asked with concern.
"Mother, Qin Chuan yelled at me, cursed at me, and told me to get out!" Jiang Ranran cried.
The woman's face was incredibly ugly. She sneered, "He's in my house, eating my food, drinking my water, living in my house, you ungrateful wretch! And now he wants my daughter out? He's getting out today!"
Jiang Ranran had made up her mind. She was going to make Qin Chuan leave. "You look down on me, huh? I'll show you!"
The woman and Jiang Ranran stormed towards Qin Chuan and the Palace Master.
"Qin Chuan, you ungrateful wretch! Get out of the Jiang family right now! I never want to see you again!" Madam Jiang shouted.
The temple master went out, puzzled, and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"
"Sister-in-law? Hmph, like attracts like! Ask this brat what he did! He yelled at my Ranran and told her to get out! Is there no justice in this world? He must get out today!" Madam Jiang said forcefully.
Qin Chuan shook his head slightly, too lazy to even say a word, not even glancing at Jiang Ranran, and smiled at the temple master, "Teacher, see you at the Martial Arts Exchange Conference!"
"Chuan'er, what's going on?" The temple master frowned.
"Teacher, believe me, I didn't do anything. I'll go live at the academy!" Qin Chuan said.
"Hmph, you got into the academy thanks to our family's help. Believe me or not, I'll make sure you get kicked out of Chuzhou Academy right now!" Madam Jiang said relentlessly.
"Try it!" A voice came at this moment.
Qin Chuan immediately knew who it was.
Zhao Han!
Zhao Han's attire remained unchanged, her beauty indescribable, her current appearance unchanged, but her hairstyle and some details were more girlish.
Now, anyone who saw her would consider her a peerless beauty.
"Who are you?"
Madam Jiang asked tentatively.
"Mother, she is Zhao Han, Zhao Hao's older sister, the pride of the Zhao family," Jiang Ranran said with a sour taste in her mouth. The
Jiang family was fawning over just Zhao Hao? What was Zhao Hao? Just a spoiled brat. And Zhao Han? She was the treasure of the Zhao family.
The woman couldn't remain calm. This kind of person might not have many other skills, but he was very good at flattery and fawning, and of course, he was also very good at kicking someone when they were down, taking advantage of an opportunity, and looking down on others.
"So it's Miss Zhao. Bringing you to my Jiang family is truly an honor. Come, come, let's go inside and talk..."
Zhao Han seemed not to hear her, but walked up to Qin Chuan and asked with concern, "Are you alright? With me here, I won't allow anyone to bully you!"
Qin Chuan felt touched and amused. This woman, saying that made him sound like a gigolo...
But so what if he was a gigolo? Qin Chuan didn't feel much; on the contrary, he was very happy and gently took her hand.
"Why are you here!" "Qin Chuan asked curiously.
"I just wanted to come see you, but I didn't expect them to bully you like this. Why didn't you tell me? If you didn't want to argue with them, you could move out and come live with me at the Zhao family's house, okay?" Zhao Han said earnestly.
"I'm afraid your father will beat me to death," Qin Chuan said with a smile.
"My father loves me the most, he won't," Zhao Han said, blushing.
"I definitely can't stay here anymore, I'll stay at the academy!" Qin Chuan said.
A slight hint of disappointment flashed in Zhao Han's eyes, which Qin Chuan naturally noticed. He smiled and said, "After the Martial Arts Exchange Conference, I'll go to your house to propose marriage, okay?"
Zhao Han knew that Qin Chuan had seen through her thoughts, and her face flushed as she said coquettishly, "Who said I was going to marry you?"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw her charming appearance. Girls, especially beautiful girls, are particularly charming when they are shy and coquettish.
"Really not going to marry me?" "Qin Chuan chuckled softly.
The two whispered among themselves, and although the others couldn't understand what they were saying, their expressions were undeniably envious.
After all, Qin Chuan was one of the most handsome men, and Zhao Han, needless to say, was a perfect match for him.
Moreover, their physiques were truly complementary, a perfect match indeed.
Madam Jiang was now panicking. They couldn't afford to offend the Zhao family. If Qin Chuan became the Zhao family's son-in-law, especially Zhao Han's husband, what would become of them? He could easily crush the Jiang family then..."
"Miss Zhao, listen to me, don't be fooled by him. He's just the disciple of my good-for-nothing sworn brother. He's not worthy of you at all, Miss. He's a fraud. He originally wanted to arrange a marriage between my Ranran and me, but his background is too low. He's not even good enough for my Ranran, how could he be worthy of you, Miss…"
