"It seems that you have already made up your mind." After staring at the other party for a while, Cang Lan withdrew her gaze.
"It's really youthful." He sighed, picked up the cup, and took a sip of tea.
Seiji remained silent.
"The Wanhua family won't do anything to you, Mr. Chuntian." Cang Lan continued.
"What we can do is force Xia Ye to stay away from you."
"It's not good to do this, we know, but the Wanhua family has the Wanhua family's position."
"We have no responsibility for the death of the young master of the Yute family. We don't need to give an explanation, but we must give some attitude, so that he can save some face."
"However, the way of giving an attitude is not fixed. If you do something for the Wanhua family, we will replace it with other ways."
"The statement is clear. This is by no means a threat. Even if you do nothing, the Wanhua family will not completely cut off your connection with Xia Ye. After all, you have great potential... Regardless of other things, I am actually quite optimistic about you .” Cang Lan smiled slightly.
"What do I need to do?" Seiji asked bluntly.
"Do you know 'Wine of Fighting Blood'?" Cang Lan asked back.
Bloody wine...
Seiji blinked his eyes, remembering.
That was before the Chinese New Year, after being approached by Akatsuki Yude, he asked Xia Ye "the method of greatly increasing strength in a short period of time", the latter's answer -
"It's a spiritual bar that can only be drunk by the winner after signing a contract with multiple psychics and fighting, and the loser pays 'spiritual blood'."
"That's right." Cang Lan nodded, "It's good that you know."
"The process of forming the wine of blood fighting is called the 'blood wine ceremony'."
"The first public blood wine ceremony was originally scheduled to be held in January this year, but due to various circumstances that occurred after the New Year, the Heiqi family and the Baimu ghost clan postponed it."
"Now they are scheduled to hold the ceremony in early March, that is, half a month later, it is estimated that tomorrow they will start sending invitations to participate in the battle and watch the battle."
"In order to attract participation in the battle, the Heiqi family and the Baimu ghost clan have prepared some rewards, and the rewards given to the victors are what our Wanhua family really wants."
"That is to say, I want to participate in the battle, win the victory, and give that thing to you?" Seiji's eyes flickered.
"Yes. But as I said just now, this is not a threat, nor an order, but just a hope." Cang Lan smiled and said, "If you participate in the war and win, and you are willing to give that thing to the Wanhua family, we will pay a reasonable amount." Price, or other items of comparable value, will not take advantage of you."
"As long as I do it, you won't let Xia Ye leave me, will you?" Seiji looked at the other party.
"Yes, I promise." Cang Lan confirmed, "If you can do it."
If you can't, I'm sorry.
Seiji seemed to be able to hear the other party saying that.
The bloodbath wine, the blood wine ceremony... I didn't expect that it would be placed in front of me again in this form.
Seiji recalled the relevant materials he had read.
It must be very difficult to win. With the current strength, can it be done
Gotta try it out!
"How can I go to war?" he asked calmly.
The decision was made in such a short time, and it was not impulsive, but with real awareness... Cang Lan admired it in his heart. He really understood why his sister fell in love with him.
"You can just receive the invitation to join the war, and you should be able to apply for it yourself. The specifics will not be known until tomorrow."
Seiji nodded.
After that, there was nothing to say, and he said his goodbyes and left.
…
"That's it."
In Mika's room, Chiaki confesses what she did.
"Sorry, Meijia, I surrendered to the enemy, hehe~"
Meijia: "..."
Although she really wanted to complain, but what she heard was so shocking that the girl with twin ponytails was stunned.
"Qianqiu... Are you telling the truth?" After a while, she couldn't help asking.
"It's true." The beauty in men's clothing nodded.
"How is it possible... President Wan Hua... actually agreed to such a thing..."
"Why is it impossible?"
"Because... the president of her..."
"Do you want to say that because Wanhua Xiaye is excellent, you won't allow that?"
Mika nodded.
"That's your misunderstanding. Excellence does not mean having a strong desire for monopoly, but rather the opposite in a sense." Qianqiu pushed the non-existent glasses and said seriously.
Meijia showed a shaken look.
Seeing his friend's expression like this, Qianqiu wanted to say something more, but he didn't say anything.
The scene was quiet for a while.
"Sure enough... can't you win the president?" Meijia murmured.
"Although I want to comfort you, to be honest, I think that's it." Qian Qiu shrugged.
"If President Wan Hua had a strong desire for monopoly, then there was a possibility of defeating her, but she didn't."
"Wanhua Xiaye is not only the current favorite for Seiji, but also the most perfect match. There is absolutely no flaw."
"Even thinking about it the other way around, it's precisely because she is such a perfect match that Seiji likes her the most."
"If I were Seiji, I would never let go of a girl like this, no matter what."
Meijia again: "..."
"What to do next, you can think about it yourself, Meijia."
"Qianqiu..."
"I'm really sorry, but that's the kind of person I am." Qian Qiu showed a smile.
Meijia looked familiar with such a smile, but felt a little strange at the moment.
The menswear beauty left.
The girl with twin ponytails lay down on the bed.
There was no sense of defeat in her.
But there was no hope, and no idea what to do next.
It's just empty.
Meijia turned over and looked at the ceiling without thinking about anything, letting her mind go blank.
But even so, the name came up naturally.
"Seiji..."
…
night.
Xia Ye came to Seiji's house.
"Are you really going to fight?"
"Um."
"Very dangerous."
"I know, but this is also an opportunity to increase your knowledge." Seiji smiled, "The martial arts competition is a youthful romance."
Regardless of anime or novels, the plots of martial arts tournaments are classics.
If juvenile comics like Dragon O are kingly comics, then the martial arts tournament is the kingly plot in the kingly comics, and sometimes it alone is enough to renew the life of the whole manga!
Cough, distracted.
Anyway, Seiji was also interested in the fighting tournament, that is, the blood wine ceremony itself.
Xia Ye stared at him.
She knew that the other party's words were sincere, but the fundamental reason for his participation in the war was still hers.
He's made up his mind, as he said this morning.
"...Be careful, don't force yourself." Xia Ye could only ask in this way.
"I will." Seiji agreed.
Then the scene fell silent.
Xia Ye kept staring at this side, Seiji looked a little embarrassed, and turned his eyes away.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something more, he heard a soft voice.
"Seiji, I want to come into your room, can I?"
into the room
Seiji was stunned for a moment.
I... Did you hear me right
