Chapter 727 (Men Shouldn't Be Afraid)

After their meal, the two of them took a walk by the Thames River. As it was a bit chilly, Lie Gu gave his coat to Yue Hua to wear.

Although he knew Yue Hua wasn't cold, it was still a form of care and thoughtfulness.

Yue Hua didn't refuse Lie Gu's kind gesture, and they had a happy day together.

Lie Gu also bought a bouquet of carnations for Yue Hua, and she didn't reject it. She accepted the flowers from Lie Gu.

Receiving flowers for the first time stirred up strange emotions in Yue Hua. After all, she had never received flowers from anyone before.

Yue Hua was from the Primordial Era, where people didn't understand romance. The only thing that attracted the opposite sex was absolute strength. Even if they wanted to give something, it would be advanced techniques or handy weapons.

Giving flowers was not something a real man should do.

However, no matter the era, girls always liked romance. So when Yue Hua accepted the flowers from Lie Gu, her heartbeat quickened, and her gaze towards him started to change. It was a sign of developing affection.

But it was just developing affection. For Lie Gu, this was already a significant progress. After all, he wasn't good at pursuing girls, so reaching this point was already remarkable.

"Yue Hua, it's getting late. Let me walk you back," Lie Gu said, checking the time. It was already 9 p.m.

Yue Hua held the bouquet of flowers and softly replied, "Mm."

Don't underestimate that "Mm"!

It was a gentle tone. Once a girl showed this kind of behaviour, it meant she had put you in her heart and was willing to listen to you.

Lie Gu wasn't foolish. From some details, he could tell that Yue Hua's feelings for him were growing stronger. This was the perfect time to strike while the iron was hot!

The two of them returned to Nanwu Banner and stood on the steps in front of the palace.

Yue Hua didn't rush to leave. It seemed like she was waiting for Lie Gu to speak, or perhaps for a simple "goodnight."

"Yue Hua, I had a great time with you today," Lie Gu abandoned his usual playboy demeanour and spoke earnestly.

Yue Hua nodded slightly and softly replied, "Thank you for accompanying me today."

"How about we go to the amusement park tomorrow?" Lie Gu invited again, feeling nervous. If Yue Hua was interested in him, she would definitely agree. If not, she would probably refuse and leave him with the feeling of being left in the cold.

Yue Hua was unfamiliar with amusement parks, so she nodded, "Okay."

Lie Gu almost couldn't contain his joy. Excitedly, he said, "Then... I'll come to pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Alright," Yue Hua nodded with a slight smile, leaving Lie Gu in a state of astonishment. She was truly beautiful.

To a man, the girl he liked was the most beautiful existence, and Lie Gu was no exception.

"Well... goodnight. Get some rest," Lie Gu stammered, his heart pounding. It was so enjoyable! Too enjoyable!

In an instant, Lie Gu disappeared from where he stood, leaving Yue Hua behind. He didn't know where he had gone, but he had returned to his original form.

A massive dragon skeleton swayed in the air, even performing the moonwalk and occasionally letting out a dragon's roar. He was so overjoyed that he couldn't maintain his human form.

Meanwhile, Yue Hua watched Lie Gu leave and chuckled softly. She smelled the fragrance of the carnations in her arms. It was quite pleasant.

"Oh my, our Yue Hua is feeling lovesick," Kai Yun appeared out of nowhere and teased Yue Hua.

Yue Hua instantly composed herself and respectfully greeted, "Banner Master."

"So, how was your date?" Kai Yun asked with a smirk. Judging by Yue Hua's expression earlier, they should have made progress.

Yue Hua calmly replied, "It was good."

"Just good? You even accepted someone's flowers," Kai Yun pursed his lips.

"I didn't want to reject them."

"Fine, if you don't want them, then give them to me. They would look nice in my room." Kai Yun reached out to take the flowers, but Yue Hua instinctively leaned back slightly. It was a subtle movement that ordinary people wouldn't notice, but Kai Yun did.

Women, they're never honest.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Now you won't even give me a bouquet of flowers. Having a man around really changes things," Kai Yun said with a hint of playfulness. The subordinates who got married were like spilled water.

Yue Hua felt a little embarrassed. What had she just done? She had even guarded a bouquet of flowers.

"Do you have another date tomorrow?" Kai Yun continued asking. He was truly a gossip king, similar to Ye Hua, being interested in his subordinates' private lives.

Yue Hua nodded, "Yes, we've made plans."

"Oh, that's great! Get some rest now and have a good sleep. That's the key to looking beautiful."

With nothing else to say, Yue Hua replied to Kai Yun's banter, "Banner Master, please rest well."

"I will. Remember to dress up nicely tomorrow."

Blushing slightly, Yue Hua nodded and then retired to her room.

As Kai Yun watched Yue Hua's retreating figure, she couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Looking at Ye Hua's subordinate, it took him just one day to get close to Yue Hua. Then she thought about Xiao Hong, who had been guarding Yue Hua for thousands of years and still hadn't made a move...

If he didn't act soon, Yue Hua would be snatched away!

Yue Hua carried a gentle smile as she held the bouquet of flowers and walked towards her room.

However, Cang Konghong sat on the stone bench in the garden, holding a piece of white paper in his hand.

He knew that his verbal expression wasn't good, so he wrote down all his feelings on the paper, hoping that Yue Hua would see his confession and accept him.

This garden was the path Yue Hua took to her room, so Cang Konghong had been waiting here early, from daytime to nighttime.

When he heard the familiar footsteps, Cang Konghong became nervous. He quickly tucked the white paper into his clothes and stood up.

But when he saw Yue Hua holding a bouquet of flowers, walking towards him with a charming smile, he didn't know why, but his heart felt like it had been deeply cut, making it hard for him to breathe.

Yue Hua was very happy holding the flowers. He rarely saw her this happy. The most he saw was when Yue Hua treated the Banner Master with such an expression.

'She went out today, how did it come to this…'

Sometimes your resignation is to fulfil someone else's happiness. Men shouldn't be afraid. If you like someone, say it boldly. Don't be like Cang Konghong, who regrets not having the courage to express himself after losing the chance!

Yue Hua also noticed Cang Konghong standing up. The joyful smile on her face faded a bit. Thinking about what happened earlier in the morning, Yue Hua walked towards Lie Gu with a gentle smile and said, "Xiao Hong, still awake?"

As if he could fall asleep.

"Just... wait," Cang Konghong gathered his courage and uttered the first word.

Yue Hua understood. She sat down slowly on the stone bench and smiled, "Waiting for me? This morning, you seemed to have something to say to me. What is it?"

"You..." Cang Konghong was very nervous. In his heart, he wanted to say, "Don't go on the date."

But Yue Hua misunderstood his nervousness slightly. His anxiety made Yue Hua think he was worried.
