Chapter 560: Section 347: Accepting a Proposal

Bu Quan seemed to have fallen into a dizzy state.

Everything before her eyes was distorted; the crystal chandeliers turned into a vague blur of white stardust, and the ornately golden wall decorations became hazy columns of light.

The stage transformed into a sea of pink, with bubbles shaped like hearts drifting up.

Immense surprise and happiness filled her heart.

“Is this all a dream?” she murmured in disbelief, her eyes glazed, as if in a fantasy.

The Dragon-man youth also sensed Bu Quan’s unusual state.

Not only had her eyes lost focus, but her limbs were feeble and weak, her entire body nearly slumped over the Dragon-man youth.

Fortunately, the Dragon-man youth had a towering figure and was very strong, well-versed in all kinds of combat skills.

To keep the situation going, he had no choice but to support her weight by holding her waist with one hand, while guiding her hand with the other.

The Dragon-man youth moved his feet skillfully, maintaining Bu Quan’s balance while making an effort to have her dance along with him.

“I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve danced; I never imagined my first ball would involve such a high level of difficulty!”

The Dragon-man youth still had enough composure to lament inwardly.

As the dance music continued, he progressively became accustomed to it and more at ease.

“Who would’ve thought that basic combat skills could be applied in dancing?”

“If it were my initial state, I would most likely be messing up by now.”

“I have to thank Xiong Ju and Teng Donglang for contributing so much experience in basic combat skills to me.”

The Dragon-man youth had seized the moment right after the duels ended that night, immediately using the Big Arena Badge and reaping rich rewards.

“Hmm?” As he continued dancing, a hint of an unusual expression flashed across the Dragon-man youth’s face.

A surge of warmth rose from his lower abdomen.

Desire slowly spread through his heart.

Looking at Bu Quan in front of him, his heart began to stir with restlessness.

Bu Quan was in a daze, completely led in the dance by the Dragon-man youth, with her entire body pressing closely against him.

The arm of the Dragon-man youth that controlled her waist enveloped almost half of her, partly securing her firmly, and also fully enjoying the softness of the girl’s waist without bones.

Bu Quan’s face was almost buried in the Dragon-man youth’s chest, with her sweet breath fluttering over his face from time to time.

The Dragon-man youth couldn’t help but be moved.

Meanwhile, in a corner of the hall, the Snowbird Port City Lord quietly watched the two slow-dancing in the middle of the dance floor.

“The Dragon-man is quite pragmatic, indeed,” the Snowbird Port City Lord said with a smile, his eyes hiding a trace of unfathomable meaning.

“City Lord, what about our arrangements…” A confidant discreetly approached to seek instructions.

The Snowbird Port City Lord sipped his wine, “No worries, it’s not like he’s only dancing this one dance. The effects of the Cold Love Wine will last for a while, so let’s have our people get in touch with him next.”

“Understood, my Lord,” the confidant withdrew quietly.

The Snowbird Port City Lord had specially planned a seduction for the Dragon-man youth.

There were three beauties in total: one from the Human Race, a Snow Elf, and a Mixed-blood with Enchanting Demon Bloodline. Each had her own charming features, with looks ranging from coquettish and cute to pure and celestial to seductive and graceful.

The Cold Love Wine that the City Lord served to the Dragon-man youth was chilly to the taste, but once swallowed, it would arouse emotions. To put it bluntly, it was an aphrodisiac to enhance desire.

“Dragon’s nature is lustful… You’ll have quite a wonderful night, Dragon-man squad leader,” chuckled the Snowbird Port City Lord.

The first dance ended.

Loud applause filled the surroundings.

Everyone could clearly see that the Dragon-man youth was inexperienced in dancing, and Bu Quan was even worse, like a soulless puppet.

But who would dare undermine the Dragon-man youth who was the star of tonight’s banquet.

And Bu Quan, the rising star in the field of alchemy, was not to be underestimated!

The Dragon-man youth had Bu Quan’s waist in his arm as they walked out of the dance floor, the latter still not quite recovered, her dazed appearance quite adorable.

The Dragon-man youth smiled and tactfully declined the advances of women who approached, wanting to be asked to dance.

He still held Bu Quan as they left the hall and headed towards the garden.

To be honest, this wasn’t quite the norm.

As the main character of the evening, he was supposed to dance with numerous women and engage in friendly and harmonious exchanges with many guests.

However, he was somewhat concerned about Bu Quan’s state.

Besides, of all the guests, Bu Quan’s value was undoubtedly the highest.

“City Lord, they’ve gone to the garden,” reported the confidant again.

The Snowbird Port City Lord nodded, “I can see that.”

“So we…” The confidant asked uncertainly.

The Snowbird Port City Lord was worried about the effects of the Cold Love Wine and pondered for a moment before saying, “Let’s wait and see.”

The confidant cautioned, “City Lord, I noticed that Miss Bu Quan also seems a bit off. She hasn’t also drunk…”

“That’s not the case. However, I can understand her feelings towards the Dragon-man youth,” said the Snowbird Port City Lord with a slight frown, then immediately ordered, “Do not act hastily within 15 minutes. If they don’t appear within that time, then go interrupt. The City Lord’s garden is not a bedroom.”

The Dragon-man youth and Bu Quan stepped on the grass, slowly making their way to the fountain in the center of the garden.

The cold night wind, mixed with moisture, brought Bu Quan back to her senses with a start.

She let out a shriek, “Ah, Long Fu squad leader!”

She instinctively stepped back, freeing herself from the dragon-man youth’s embrace.

The dragon-man youth was somewhat speechless.

With your gasping and trembling, what’s going on? It makes it seem like I’m some Thief who’s drugged you and carried you away.

Thinking about it, the dragon-man youth also started to feel a bit parched.

His mind wandered, and he even reminisced about the feeling of holding Bu Quan’s waist.

Just moments ago, the beauty was in his arms, and now that they were apart, the dragon-man youth actually felt a bit of yearning.

But Bu Quan wasn’t drugged, and as her mind cleared, her memories gradually became distinct.

When she recalled being held in the dragon-man youth’s arms, her heart sped up again, and her cheeks flushed with color.

The atmosphere became ambiguous and awkward.

Breaking the silence, the dragon-man youth asked with concern, “Miss Bu Quan, are you alright?”

“I, I’m fine,” Bu Quan replied hastily, “I’ve been fine these days. Couldn’t be better!”

Reaching this point, Bu Quan mustered her courage, lifted her head, and looked directly at the dragon-man youth.

Sincerely, she said, “Long Fu squad leader, you must be aware of my experiences by now, right?”

“Of course,” nodded the dragon-man youth, “ever since you personally delivered that equipment to me that day, I have gathered information through the Thief Guild.”

“The City Lord of Snowbird Port also offered his help.”

Bu Quan smiled, “So, I am very grateful to you, Long Fu squad leader.”

“You helped me seek vengeance!”

The dragon-man youth shook his head, “I should be thanking you. The windshield and ice pack you gave me are quite useful. But the most critical was that Magic Scroll, which became the turning point for my victory!”

But Bu Quan declined, “My doing this is not worthy of your thanks.”

“The equipment I gave you was out of self-interest. To put it bluntly, I was using you.”

“You eliminated the main villain, which led to the downfall of the Saber Gang. I would very much like to repay you, is there anything I can do for you?”

“If possible, I would like to offer you all of my Alchemy Workshops in Snowbird Port, I hope you will accept.”

The dragon-man youth was taken aback.

Bu Quan’s sincerity was overwhelming.

Even the City Lord of Snowbird Port couldn’t compare!

But then, the dragon-man youth shook his head, “I’m not interested in those Alchemy Workshops.”

“What I want more is you, Miss Bu Quan!”

The dragon-man youth had long wished to recruit Bu Quan.

He had drunk Cold Love Wine earlier, and the effects were kicking in.

Having just danced with Bu Quan, his masculine side sprang into action, causing him to be overly direct in his words.

Bu Quan gaped in astonishment at the dragon-man youth.

“What, what?!”

“Did I just hear what I think I did?”

“How could the Long Fu squad leader say such things?”

“Is he, is he confessing to me?!”

Bu Quan’s face blushed fiercely.

The sound of her heart beating wildly nearly melded into one.

Her ears buzzed, her mind exploded and couldn’t think of anything but immense shock and endless joy.

The second after the dragon-man youth blurted his words, he felt regret.

Seeing Bu Quan’s reaction, he immediately realized that she had misunderstood.

The youth quickly tried to make amends, “Cough, please forgive my directness.”

“Let me rephrase that more accurately.”

“Miss Bu Quan, would I have the honor of inviting you to join my Mercenary Group?”

“Miss Bu Quan, Miss Bu Quan?”

Bu Quan, with an ‘Ah!’ came to her senses and instinctively touched both cheeks with her palms.

“I accept your offer, Long Fu squad leader!”

“December 2nd is a good day for a wedding.”

“If it’s a boy, let’s name him Long Tai. If it’s a girl, we’ll name her Quanzi!”

Now it was the dragon-man youth’s turn to be dumbfounded.

In just an instant, you’re already thinking about marriage and children?

And besides, isn’t December 2nd tomorrow?!
