The fiancé

Zhao Feng quickly walked and returned to the Zhao family mansion in just under an hour. As he passed the main gates no one stopped him, in fact, no one even acknowledged his existence. He felt like he had gone invisible again but soon stopped his thought when he saw the sign of ridicule and hatred in everyone's eyes.

Thinking of it he still didn't know why he had been invisible to everyone till he touched the old man at the inn. He thought perhaps it was something done by the system to save him, though he was not so sure about that.

He would love to ponder on that but he had no time, It was announced that his supposed fiance would come to the Zhao family manor at noon and he only had about an hour to prepare. So he made haste into his courtyard. It was located at the further end and away from the main family's courtyard and was really messy. The servants rarely visited there to clean it up and even if they did the old Zhao Feng would mess it up again in no time.

Zhao Feng was currently pacing around his room thinking about his current situation, he had no idea what would happen today. He tried to remember the details about his meetings in the past with Liu's family daughter but all he could remember from the previous move he saw were just formal interactions.

The Zhao and the Liu families were very close and invited each other for special occasions it was only here they had met each other and exchanged greetings nothing else. therefore he was sure that Liu Xieren had no impression of the previous Zhao Feng and had no reason to marry him.

It was even impossible it was done to strengthen the bond between the two families as there were better choices than Zhao Feng who had no future, if that were the case a better choice would have been Zhao Jiang the young genius and the son of the current patriarch.

Zhao Feng still had no idea why the two families would go ahead with this, so he started reviewing all he had seen previously. Suddenly he stopped his passing as he thought of something and ran to the library.

Zhao Feng's entry into the library was met with shock from the rest of the youths there as they had never seen him there and were even doubtful whether this pig could read. Seeing Zhao Feng randomly going to where the common knowledge section was stored they started snickering someone said that he was there to read up on some things and try to impress young mistress Liu who was coming later today.

They started laughing loudly thinking about how Zhao Feng was going to make himself look like a fool in front of young mistress Liu, who had memorized all those books Zhao Feng was now flipping through when she was just 5 years old.

Zhao Feng paid no heed to the commotion around him and continued flipping through these books, he was not memorizing these books with the help of the system as it had not given any response after it had decided to take a break, no he was searching for something. Finally, after flipping through 8 books he finally found what he was looking for and started reading it then and there.

It was easy for Zhao Feng to read the book as it was written in the same language as his previous world otherwise he would have been in trouble. After he finished reading the 3 pages of information he had a good idea of the current situation and finally sighed a sigh of relief.

After that he went to find some servants to help clean the courtyard, They avoided him at first but when he offered them one gold coin each they readily agreed. Zhao Feng had learned his lesson he knew after watching the 'movie' why the old man had such a reaction when Zhao Feng had given him the stone which he thought was the lowest form of currency. Turns out Zhao Feng had stupidly given the old man a piece of spirit stone which was priceless.

He didn't know whether to cry or laugh at his stupidity but was very glad he hadn't made contact with those hunters or else he would have been dead as soon as he took it out. Who knew that the legendary spirit stones would look like ordinary rocks weren't they supposed to be white and like a crystal, life was truly unfair.

The servants made quick work of the mess and cleaned it up nicely, now it looked like a place a human would live in. He also sent one out to buy some nice tea leaves. Zhao Feng Also found some nice clothes to wear for himself. the clothes were clearly more expensive and felt comfortable to the skin unlike the one head gotten at the old man's inn. Zhao Feng was ready and all he had to do now was wait.

It didn't take time to pass and noon to arrive. The Liu family carriage had arrived early. The one who came included only Liu Hea, his daughter, and their servants. As soon as they came they were welcomed by the whole of the Zhao family and invited in, but no one informed Zhao Feng so he didn't go out to invite them. After entering they went into a meeting with the Zhao family patriarch and didn't come out till it was time for lunch. Zhao Feng was still excluded from all this.

Zhao Feng was beginning to worry that he had been completely forgotten during his own engagement and he was also feeling a bit hungry. He decided to eat something and was about to get up when a servant rushed him and told him to get ready to receive young mistress Liu and left without saying anything more. After he was gone more servants came and prepared the table with some snacks and delicacies and quickly left.

Zhao Feng quickly adjusted his clothes and was ready to welcome his guest in. Soon the door was opened and a beauty walked in, Zhao Feng was Stunned upon seeing her and couldn't help but curl his mouth in a smile. The reason Zhao Feng was stunned was not because of her beauty, she was indeed the most beautiful woman he had seen but the reason he was stunned was because of this beauty's age, the one walking was just a girl of 16 years of age.

Zhao Feng had forgotten that though he was 28 years old the body he hijacked was just 16 years of age, he had subconsciously forgotten that fact and thought he would be dealing with a woman of similar age to his past self so when a little girl of just 16 years walked in he couldn't stop himself from smiling and even broke out into laughter thinking how easy it would be to deal with such a young girl.

Seeing Zhao Feng laughing as soon as he saw her Liu Xierens face went dark She didn't know why but she felt like the man was laughing at her. Being a peerless genius and a beauty of her generation she had been used to all sorts of gazes but it was the first time that she had seen someone laugh at her and that too so openly.

She didn't hide the displeasure on her face and directly sat down in front of a table that was in the room. Zhao Feng too quickly recollected himself and sat down in front of her. Both sat there in silence waiting for someone to speak. Finally, it was Zhao Feng who broke the silence.

"Would you like some tea, Miss Liu?" Zhao Feng was so hungry and couldn't take it anymore so he decided to offer her some tea that he would at least get to eat some snacks that were on the table. There was no response from Liu Xieren so Zhao Feng poured himself a cup and started feasting on the delicacies on the table.

As she watched Zhao Feng gorge down on the food placed on the table a deep frown was etched on her face. this Zhao Feng was a shameless person just like she had heard, he was supposed to be the host and yet he showed no manners, he didn't greet her when they first met and began eating without offering her anything.

Zhao Feng was so busy stuffing his face that he didn't notice the change in the beauty's face. Liu Xieren couldn't take it any longer and so she spoke up.

"Shouldn't the host offer the guest first before eating himself?"

As she spoke a melodious voice reached Zhao Feng's ear who ignored it completely, he was busy eating these delicacies and they were truly some of the best things he had eaten so he didn't currently have any interest in anything he couldn't stuff in his mouth.

Seeing she had been ignored again a rage was building up in her and she wanted to lash out but stopped herself at the last minute, she knew that the person before her was a mear mortal and any casual move of her would kill him and all their plans would be spoilt so she suppressed her rage and asked again this time her voice carried more strength.

Though Zhao Feng was lost in his own world of eating, being asked the same question twice he had to have heard it so she stopped eating and looked at her and smiled and spoke.

" So tell me, why is that the Second fairy's disciple interested in marrying a man like me?'

As soon as the word left his mouth a strong aura surrounded him and began suffocating him.
