After returning home, Hua Jueming reported the marriage proposal to Hua Gengchen.

“Master, Young Master Su Bai really liked the gift you gave him, but he was worried that the Su family would take it away, so he asked me to bring it back.”

"Hmm! He has good taste." Hua Gengchen commented sincerely with a hint of admiration. Gold is indeed a very good gift. If someone asks him for a favor, sending a few boxes of gold would greatly increase the chances of success. But whether or not he helps is still up to him.

"Young Master Su Bai also said that he hopes to live in the western suburbs of Beicheng."

"Beicheng?" Hua Gengchen didn't particularly like Beicheng. He always stayed in Haicheng when he went to the human realm, as he preferred the environment there. However, since it was Su Bai's request, he reluctantly agreed. After all, the demon race still needed him to save them, and he would owe Su Bai a great favor in the future. It wouldn't hurt to make Su Bai happy first! "If he likes it, then let him be! But you need to arrange things in advance, especially the place for bathing."

"Yes, Master." Hua Jueming replied respectfully. The environment in the demon realm was harsh, and his master certainly hadn't had a proper bath. Once his master returned to the human realm, he would make sure his master enjoyed a good bath. "Master, the wedding is set for ten days from now. Will you be able to return on time?"

Hua Gengchen remained silent for a long time after hearing this. He had originally planned to be able to return in time, but something had suddenly happened in the northern part of the demon realm, and he had to go and see for himself. Whether he could return in ten days was uncertain.

"I can't guarantee that for now, but I'll try my best to get back." Although Su Bai is a descendant of Shennong and someone he has a connection with, in Hua Gengchen's heart, Su Bai is just someone who can help him save the demon race from disaster. When he has to choose between the demon realm and Su Bai, Hua Gengchen will choose the demon realm without hesitation.

"What about marriage registration? That requires the person to be present." Hua Jueming asked hesitantly. He could skip the wedding ceremony, but could he register the marriage without being there?

Hua Gengchen remained silent for a while before saying, "I'll try my best!"

"Yes, Master." With Hua Gengchen's words, Hua Jueming felt reassured and knew what to do.

"Keep an eye on Bai Ze and find the thing that can activate the bloodline as soon as possible!" Hua Gengchen instructed. This matter cannot be forgotten! Absolutely not!

"Don't worry, Master, I've kept it in mind!" Hua Jueming knew that Su Bai's Shennong bloodline was insufficient. He wanted Su Bai to reach a state where he could save the demon realm as soon as possible. So even if Hua Gengchen hadn't mentioned it, he would have kept a close eye on Bai Ze to do it. However, with Hua Gengchen's instructions, he was more confident in doing some things.

"Alright, that's settled then!" Before the words had even finished, Hua Gengchen unilaterally cut off the contact.

Hua Jueming first arranged for someone to clean the room in the western suburbs of Beicheng, and then arranged the wedding banquet. After everything was done, he went to find Bai Ze, intending to keep an eye on Bai Ze before the wedding started, and make sure that he made the medicine as soon as possible!

The news of the marriage alliance between the Su family and the Hua family caused a huge uproar in Beicheng. No one expected that Su Bai, an illegitimate child who had just been recognized, would have such good luck!

That's a reclusive family!

Although the reclusive family had declined, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse. Moreover, they had heard that the Hua family had given Su Bai a whole box of gold as a gift, which made them even more certain that the reclusive family was not just an empty shell with a name that had been passed down for hundreds of years, as they had thought.

Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia seized this opportunity to negotiate several business deals, buying the Su Group a lot of time. As a result, Su Shengrong has been in a very good mood these past few days, and he wasn't even angry when he saw Su Bai playing with mud at home.

However, while Su Shengrong and Su Yangxia had a good time, Su Chengjun's situation was not so good.

He was a recent college graduate who had been doing very well in college, but things were different after he joined the company. He encountered setbacks everywhere and was ostracized by some people, making it impossible for him to carry out his work normally.

Su Chengjun strongly suspected that Su Yangxia had arranged for these people to ostracize him, but he couldn't find any evidence and therefore had no way to accuse Su Yangxia in front of Su Shengrong, so he could only keep enduring it.

However, Su Chengjun was still bothered by this. Why was Su Yangxia the one who was praised by everyone, while he could only hide in the shadows and spy on her? Like a rat that couldn't see the light of day, Su Bai's status was now higher than his. Why was that?

Su Chengjun got stuck in a dead end and couldn't get out anytime soon.

Su Mo and Su Qi were also implicated in this matter. They had been getting along well with their respective blind date partners, but after hearing that Hua Gengchen, that old-fashioned guy who even checked the compatibility of birth dates on blind dates, had given Su Bai a whole box of gold, they became unsettled.

Moreover, Su Bai had already received her dowry from Su Shengrong, including a villa. How could they possibly tolerate this?

The Gu and Wen families are indeed well-regarded, both being famous wealthy families in Beicheng, but they still can't afford a whole chest of gold as a gift! Especially since it's specifically for me!

Su Mo and Su Qi were consumed by jealousy, and they found fault with everything about Su Bai.

Su Bai ignored Su Mo and Su Qi, focusing intently on planting his bok choy. Su Bai discovered that growing vegetables could be truly addictive!

After the seeds, potting soil, and flowerpots he ordered online arrived, Su Bai got to work. Following the instructions provided by the system, he first germinated the seeds before planting them in the soil. After starting to grow vegetables, the first thing Su Bai did every morning was to check on his bok choy to see how it was doing. When he discovered that the first seed had sprouted, Su Bai was so excited that he jumped up and down on the spot.

Later, the seeds sprouted one after another, and Su Bai found each one adorable. The tender green shoots were particularly eye-catching in the morning sunlight, and Su Bai couldn't help but look at them for a long time each time.

Su Bai was completely absorbed in the joy of growing vegetables. Watching the bok choy grow taller day by day, Su Bai couldn't wait to announce to the whole world that he knew how to grow vegetables!

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was time for Su Bai and Hua Gengchen to get married.

Before dawn, Su Bai was still dreaming in bed when Uncle Xin and his men dragged him out of bed and dressed him up. Su Bai was still half asleep as everyone fiddled with him. This time, he didn't have any emotions because he was going to marry Hua Gengchen today!

He'll be able to leave the Su family soon!

Looking at the sea of ​​red, Su Bai finally felt the reality; he had truly embarked on a path completely different from the one he had chosen in his previous life.

After getting ready, Su Bai went to the lobby on the first floor, preparing to go to the hotel where the wedding would be held with the rest of the Su family. Since he and Hua Gengchen were both men, there was no concept of one of them coming to fetch the other; instead, a banquet was held at the hotel, and both of them just needed to arrive on time.

"Su Bai will sit with me." Just as they were about to leave, Su Shengrong suddenly said this, instantly making Su Bai a thorn in the side of Su Chengjun, Su Mo, and Su Qi.

Su Bai sensed the gazes and glanced back. Su Mo and Su Qi seemed fine, but Su Chengjun's expression surprised him slightly.

Su Chengjun used to have the air of an elite, but now he looks somewhat listless. Coupled with those eyes full of jealousy and resentment, it really lowers Su Chengjun's appearance score by a lot, making him look like he's carrying a heavy background.

Didn't Su Chengjun successfully join the Su Group? Could something have happened?

After Su Shengrong got into the car, Su Bai also got in, but in his mind he was thinking about what had happened to the Su Group during this period in his previous life.

Su Yangxia watched as Su Shengrong and the others got into the car, and then he got into the car behind them. He wouldn't be like Su Chengjun, revealing all his thoughts to everyone in such a situation.

Seeing that the two cars in front of him had driven away, Su Chengjun spat before getting into his car, but he ignored the two sisters, Su Mo and Su Qi, and drove off on his own.

Su Mo and Su Qi both thought that Su Chengjun would take them with him, but they didn't expect that Su Chengjun would not care about them at all. Su Mo stomped her foot and told Uncle Xin to quickly prepare a car.

Who knows how many wealthy families will be here today? Su Mo and Su Qi haven't settled their marriages yet, so they still have choices!

Upon arriving at the hotel, Su Bai was forced to put on a show of fatherly affection with Su Shengrong until just before the wedding began, at which point Su Bai finally found a chance to leave. He had barely entered the lounge and hadn't even sat down when there was a knock on the door. Having spent the entire morning putting on a smiling face, Su Bai immediately became angry. "Who is it?" Couldn't he at least get a little break before the wedding started?

The person outside said apologetically, "Young Master Su Bai, I'm so sorry to bother you! I have something urgent to tell you!"

Su Bai recognized Hua Jueming's voice and immediately opened the door. "What is it?" Su Bai asked as he let Hua Jueming in.

After Hua Jueming entered and closed the door, he looked at Su Bai apologetically and said, "Young Master Su Bai, I'm very sorry, the head of the family may not be able to return in time..."

"?" Su Bai jumped up immediately after sitting down. "What do you mean? Hua Gengchen wants to break off the engagement?!" To be honest, when he accompanied Su Shengrong to receive guests, he did not see Hua Gengchen. It was Hua Jueming and a white-haired, youthful-looking man in a white Tang suit who were busy with things. It was said that he was an elder in Hua Gengchen's clan.

"No, no, no!" Hua Jueming waved his hands repeatedly. Su Bai's importance to the demon race was unimaginable to others, and Su Bai was someone they had been searching for for thousands of years. How could they possibly break off the engagement! "The wedding will still be held as scheduled, but... the patriarch was unable to return in time. He encountered an emergency before returning to the country and simply couldn't make it back, so..." In reality, Hua Gengchen went to the northern part of the demon realm, and only after arriving did he realize that the situation was much more serious than he had imagined. He simply couldn't get away from it.

Hua Jueming felt extremely sorry that Hua Gengchen couldn't return in time for the wedding! Su Bai would lose face as a result, and people would talk about him for a long time.

"Not a broken engagement?" Su Bai asked for confirmation.

"Absolutely not!" Hua Jueming raised his hand and swore.

"Then it's nothing!" Su Bai patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. He plopped down on the sofa and relaxed. Hua Jueming's apologetic expression had really made him think that Hua Gengchen was going to break off the engagement. Fortunately, that wasn't the case, otherwise he might have drawn his knife and gone straight to fight Hua Gengchen to the death!

Hua Jueming was taken aback by Su Bai's actions, and after a long while, he asked in a low voice, "Young Master Su Bai doesn't mind?"

"He didn't intentionally fail to make it back, so what's there to mind?" Su Bai said calmly. Unexpected situations are something he often encountered in his previous life, and there's really nothing that can be done against human power.

Upon hearing this, Hua Jueming looked at Su Bai with immense gratitude, feeling that Su Bai was like an incarnation of a Bodhisattva at this moment, able to benefit all sentient beings by sitting on the lotus platform.

Su Bai truly lives up to his reputation as someone destined to marry his master; his magnanimity is something no one else could match, even if they rode a rocket.
