I want to go back to my original world and live an ordinary life.

While saying these words, Jin Ling'er moved closer to Qiu Yan, and Qiu Yan was forced to retreat step by step by Jin Ling'er. It was not until Qiu Yan was forced to the wall with nowhere to retreat that Jin Ling'er stopped scolding Qiu Yan and stopped forcing Qiu Yan.

After Jin Ling'er finished speaking, Qiu Yan could only smile awkwardly at Jin Ling'er's anger and abuse, then he got out of the corner where he had nowhere to retreat, and said to Jin Ling'er with a smile, "Miss Ling'er, first of all, I want to make it clear that although I saw you changing clothes, I saw it unintentionally, and I only saw your back. When you were about to take off your bellyband, I turned my face away, and..."

"How dare you say that!" Before Qiu Yan finished speaking, Jin Ling'er slapped Qiu Yan in the face. Fortunately, Qiu Yan reacted quickly and dodged Jin Ling'er's slap. After dodging Jin Ling'er's slap, Jin Ling'er did not move again, but stared at Qiu Yan with a slightly red face. It was unknown whether she was shy because of Qiu Yan's words or was angry with Qiu Yan.

Hearing that Jin Ling'er told him not to talk about this matter anymore, Qiu Yan had no choice but to stop talking about it. He waved his hand and said, "Calm down first, I won't talk about it anymore!" Although Qiu Yan didn't want to talk about that matter anymore, there were some things he still had to make clear to Jin Ling'er. Otherwise, if she really leaked his identity, then his participation in the Tiansai would be ruined, and his life might even be in danger. So he had to sort this matter out with Jin Ling'er.

Fortunately, Qiu Yan also knew that what Jin Ling'er said just now was just angry, otherwise she would not be standing here, but would go directly to the Hu family to complain.

"That... Miss Ling'er, how about we discuss it again? As long as you don't let me marry you, you can ask me to do anything! I am willing to compensate you with everything I have." When Qiu Yan said this, he suddenly thought of the things in his space jade. Although he knew that things could not make up for a woman's innocence, those were all Qiu Yan had at the moment. So when he thought of this, Qiu Yan took out all the treasures in his space jade, including more than a dozen boxes of gold coins, countless spiritual tools and peaches, as well as a large number of spiritual medicines, pills, and various exercises.

After taking out these things, Qiu Yan quickly continued, "These things are all I have. Although I know this is not enough to compensate for your innocence, I am not a pretentious person! You can keep these things first, and I will compensate you with some good things in the future, as long as you are willing to forgive me."

Qiu Yan's words were very sincere. After listening to Qiu Yan's words and looking at the things Qiu Yan took out, even Jin Ling'er, who had seen some of the world, was a little shocked. As the daughter of the house owner, Jin Ling'er thought she had seen a lot of good things, such as top-grade spiritual tools, top-grade elixirs, top-grade spiritual medicines, top-grade exercises, and spiritual peaches. She had seen all of these, and had used and eaten them all. But this was the first time she had seen such a quantity. This number of spiritual tools and elixirs, as well as exercises, spiritual medicines, and spiritual peaches, let alone her, I'm afraid even her parents had never seen them.

A rough estimate of the things Qiu Yan took out is that they are worth at least tens of millions of gold coins. Moreover, things like top-grade spiritual weapons and high-quality spiritual medicines are things that cannot be bought even if you have money, so the value of these things can no longer be measured by money.

Qiu Yan had always said that he was from the mountains, a child of a poor family, and had no background. How could someone without background come up with so many treasures at once? This amount of treasures might not even be found in the royal treasure house. Thinking of this, Jin Ling'er took a deep breath, and she felt that she had to look at the young man in front of her again.

"Tell me the truth. Who are you? Where are you from? What kind of background do you have? If you are willing to answer honestly, perhaps I will not pursue what happened just now. But if you dare to lie to me again, I will go to the Hu family and give you up!" Jin Ling'er said this in a firm tone, and it seemed that she was not joking.

Hearing Jin Ling'er asking about his background and life experience, Qiu Yan shook his head helplessly. He didn't want to lie to Jin Ling'er, but even if he told Jin Ling'er the whole truth, she might not believe it. So after thinking about it, Qiu Yan had to simply explain his origins and so-called background to Jin Ling'er. "I come from a very far place, a place I may never go back to, and my background is my master. I have been with my master since I came here at the age of sixteen. My master taught me to practice, and these things were also given to me by my master. However, my master is now in seclusion. Before the seclusion, he asked me to come out for experience, and also told me not to cause trouble. Maybe you may not believe it, but these are all my secrets. I have said my words. If you want to go to the Hu family to inform on me, go ahead! Anyway, the Hu family will not do anything to me. At most, I can no longer participate in the Tiansai to compete for the qualification for the secret realm."

When Qiuyan said the first part, Jin Ling'er did not believe Qiuyan's words, but after hearing Qiuyan's second part, Jin Ling'er felt that Qiuyan did not lie to her. So she said to Qiuyan, "I believe you!"

After saying that, Jin Ling'er took a look at the treasures in the room and couldn't help but let out a bitter smile. Then she continued, "Do you really want to use these things in the room to exchange for your freedom from having to marry me?"

Hearing Jin Ling'er's question, Qiu Yan also took a look at the things in the room, then nodded without hesitation and said, "These things are just what I have now. If there is a chance in the future, or if I get something good, I will compensate you some more."

Hearing that Qiu Yan wanted to compensate her more, Jin Ling'er couldn't help laughing again. She looked at Qiu Yan curiously and asked, "Do you know the value of these things? The value of these things is enough for you to buy the innocence of tens of thousands of women. Moreover, some of the things in your pocket are things that some people can't buy even if they want to. For cultivators, these things can be said to be priceless treasures. With these things, a person's cultivation can advance by leaps and bounds. Do you really not regret it?"

"No regrets!" Qiu Yan shook his head firmly, and then continued, "Although innocence is worthless to some women, it is more important than life to some women. Although these things are good, they are just objects after all. They cannot be compared with a person's innocence or life. No matter how many or how good the things are, they cannot exchange for a person's innocence, let alone a person's life. So I don't regret it. This is what I should pay, and I think these things of mine are far from making up for the shadow in your heart."

After Qiu Yan finished speaking, Jin Ling'er laughed again, and this time her smile was very pure. Qiu Yan could not tell any other meaning from her smile. This time Jin Ling'er was really just laughing.

"I'm not mistaken, you really are a good person, and the kind of good person who is a little silly." After saying that, Jin Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the things in front of her, and said simply, "As you wish, I'll take these things!"

After saying that, Jin Ling'er put these things into her storage space one by one, sighing at the goodness of these things while putting them away, as if she had completely forgotten what happened between her and Qiu Yan. Qiu Yan was relieved to see Jin Ling'er like this, even though she would become a pauper from now on, at least she had no regrets in her heart.

After Jin Ling'er packed up the things, her face returned to her previous innocent smile. Then she walked to Qiu Yan, straightened his messy collar, and said to him with a smile, "Those things just now can be considered as your betrothal gifts, and I have indeed accepted your betrothal gifts, so our engagement is settled from now on!" After saying that, Jin Ling'er raised her eyes to glance at Qiu Yan, only to see that the expression on Qiu Yan's face had frozen, and his eyes were staring straight at Jin Ling'er in front of him. He stood there motionless like a wooden man.

Qiu Yan never expected that Jin Ling'er would do this to him. While sighing at the many tricks in the other world, he couldn't help but want to slap himself twice! Slap himself for not controlling his mouth and drinking too much! If he hadn't been so greedy at the time, he wouldn't have gotten into such trouble! But it's no use thinking about these things now. Now Qiu Yan can only think about how to save the current situation.

"Miss Ling'er, you don't like me, and we don't have any feelings for each other, so why do you force yourself to marry me?" Qiu Yan asked Jin Ling'er, unable to understand this.

Jin Ling'er thought for a moment after hearing Qiu Yan's words, and then said, "At first I said that I had to make a choice for you to be responsible for me, but now it's not the case. Now I think you are pretty good. Not only do you do things openly and honestly, but you also dare to take responsibility and are not interested in women. Unlike other men who will be tempted when they see beautiful women, you have principles in doing things and will not be tempted by women. This will save me a lot of worries in the future."

Jin Ling'er thought about it for a while, and then continued, "Besides, you are not bad either. At least with the things you just gave me, my parents won't stop us. And the most important thing is, after I get engaged to you, my aunt and my parents won't think of introducing me to any young masters, and I can have some peace and quiet. Isn't that great?"
