Rising Sun City Moat, Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention Venue.
Under the deliberate acceleration of the hosts, the later it got, the fewer lights the boys received.
In fact, their results were destined from the very beginning. The soul masters who had snatched the front row positions were all paragons of their generation. And those who were ranked at the back rarely had hidden masters who were playing the pig to eat the tiger.
At their age of around twenty, who didn't long to become famous overnight?
Individual cases like Xie Huanyue were, after all, few and far between.
Soon, it was Xu Sanshi's turn, who was ranked at the front.
At this time, Xu Sanshi's face was slightly nervous. It was obvious that the Soul Sages and Soul Douluo who had come out just now had dealt him a considerable blow.
He still used his Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield as a small boat. Stepping on the shield, he slid out. The water surface under the Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield strangely did not produce too many ripples, as if the shield itself and the water had become one.
Tang Wutong's pretty face turned slightly red. She turned her head away and did not look at Xu Sanshi, who was heading in her direction.
Xu Sanshi slowly came to a stop about ten meters away from her.
"Wutong, I'm here. I don't know how many times this is that I've confessed to a girl. My brothers are all asking me how to woo a girl. I tell them, to woo a girl, you have to be bold, meticulous, and thick-skinned. Especially the thick-skinned part, you must have it. As long as you put down your face and pester relentlessly, there will always be a chance of success."
Hearing his words, some light laughter had already started among the male students. They all knew how Xu Sanshi had pursued Jiang Nannan in the past.
But Xu Sanshi was not smiling. His expression was very serious.
"Wutong, the first time I saw you, I didn't know you were a girl. I know I once left you with the impression of shamelessly pursuing Nannan. But you and I have known each other for so many years, from when you joined the Tang Sect to the academy's reconstruction, and up until now. I have completely said goodbye to the past. I believe you can see all of this. What I can tell you is that for you, I can give everything, even my life. I know that perhaps the answer I give you today is not much different from the one I gave Nannan before, but I still have to try. I am not willing to miss even a sliver of a chance. Wutong, open your heart and give me a crack. I will give you a heart full of love and a passion."
Xu Sanshi's confession did not sound very passionate, and was even a bit plain. However, in his plain tone, there seemed to be something suppressed. His eyes were firm and persistent, but deep within his eyes, there were hidden emotional fluctuations.
Tang Wutong finally turned her head. The two's eyes met. Tang Wutong was surprised to see that on Xu Sanshi's calm face was an unprecedented seriousness and relief.
In that instant, Tang Wutong's delicate body trembled slightly. A thousand words could not compare to the shock that Xu Sanshi's complete transformation and change of appearance gave her.
Over these years, how had Xu Sanshi been to her? Of course she knew very well. She knew even better that what Xu Sanshi had just said was by no means just talk. That time with the martial soul fusion skill, he really was willing to give his life for her! And why should she be bothered by his past? Was his and Jiang Nannan's affair really worth being so bothered about?
At this moment, more than a minute had passed since Xu Sanshi had left his seat. The others were loudly introducing themselves as if no one was there, but no one interrupted him, who was speaking in a low voice.
No matter how the segments of this Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention were arranged, in the face of a true feeling, everyone was willing to wait. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Tang Wutong, who was ten meters in front of Xu Sanshi.
Tang Wutong bit her lower lip lightly, looked at the infatuated Xu Sanshi, and then at his seemingly calm face. She opened her mouth several times, but in the end, no words came out.
At this moment, a tragic smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the fairy not far from Tang Wutong. She suddenly smiled silently, and her whole person seemed to have lost all strength as she fell backward.
As she fell backward, her gaze was always fixed on Xu Sanshi. Tears streamed down her delicate face. In her eyes, there was too much love, reluctance, and grievance.
"Plop!"
Water splashed everywhere. That fairy fell into the water in despair, which meant she had left this blind date event. Even in the instant before she fell into the water, the tears in her eyes had not diminished.
She had finally, completely lost to Tang Wutong. The years she had spent with Xu Sanshi had become a past he could let go of.
From the time she met Xu Sanshi until now, a full six years had passed. For the first three years, Xu Sanshi had been relentlessly pursuing, constantly confessing, and constantly giving. However, what he got in return was always rejection, just because, six years ago, he had done something wrong, something that had left a heavy shadow in this fairy's heart.
For three years, he had put in so much effort, but what he got in return was always rejection.
Xu Sanshi had been waiting, waiting for the moment when the clouds would part and the moon would appear. However, the answer he got was always negative.
Staring blankly at the unknown fairy who had fallen into the water, Xu Sanshi, for some reason, seemed to have lost his soul. His legs went weak, and he almost sat down on the water lily. He was extremely familiar with Tang Wutong, but he was also just as familiar with Jiang Nannan's body proportions!
"Bastard, bastard, bastard!" Jiang Nannan, who had fallen into the water, suddenly burst into tears. Her whole person was like a child who had lost a toy, her tears pouring down.
"Why? You pursued me so many times, why did you give up just like that? You're a man, why couldn't you persist a little longer? Why did you let go?"
Looking at the sobbing Jiang Nannan, everyone was silent. The female students wanted to comfort her, but they didn't know how to. After all, no one knew what had happened between her and Xu Sanshi.
Looking at the sparkling surface of the Sea God's Lake, she suddenly murmured with a trembling voice, "Bastard, come back..."
It had been six years. Xu Sanshi had taken care of her with meticulous care, had risked his life for her many times, had shielded her from strong enemies with his shield, and had sheltered her from the wind and rain. She was a person of flesh and blood too! How could she not know all of this? But she had never been able to accept him, just because the shadow of the past was too heavy. Or perhaps, Xu Sanshi's devotion to her was far from enough to compensate for her chastity.
But today, just now, when she saw the usually playful and mischievous guy calmly confessing to another girl, the emotions she had suppressed in her heart could no longer be controlled.
The instantaneous collapse of her emotions finally made her defenses fall. The moment she saw Xu Sanshi express his feelings for Tang Wutong, she only felt that she would probably lose him forever. That moment of hesitation and panic even turned into despair.
"Bastard..."
Jiang Nannan cried weakly, but the despair in her heart grew stronger and stronger. She finally understood that she really couldn't lose that scoundrel who pestered her every day, couldn't lose his help to her mother.
Clearly, clearly, if Xu Sanshi had just spent a little more time on her, she would have...
