Among the crowd, one figure looked somewhat familiar, prompting Chu Yunyi to take a closer look.

Upon seeing the person's face clearly, she couldn't help but feel a tightness in her chest, and her brows furrowed instantly—it turned out that this person was Ouyang Qiao!

Almost simultaneously, Ouyang Qiao also noticed Chu Yunyi's presence.

A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately broke away from his original group without hesitation, rushing straight towards Chu Yunyi like a gust of wind.

This sudden action made Chu Yunyi frown even more. What was this guy going to do?

Seeing this, Hua Qi wanted to stop, but Chu Yunyi pulled him back forcefully, wanting to go around Ouyang Bridge and continue forward.

However, Ouyang Qiao would not let this opportunity slip by easily. He quickly reached out and accurately grabbed Chu Yunyi's slender wrist.

Chu Yunyi had no choice but to stop, glaring angrily at Ouyang Qiao.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

As she spoke, she struggled to shake her wrists, trying to break free from his grasp. After all, being held like that made her very uncomfortable. After shaking for a while, Ouyang Qiao finally let go of her.

"Yunyi, is it because of him that you rejected me so resolutely?"

Ouyang Qiao stared at Chu Yunyi with disbelief, his voice trembling slightly as he asked.

Chu Yunyi slightly raised her eyes and coldly replied,

"No, from the very beginning, I have never had any romantic feelings for you."

As she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of a group of people in the distance casting curious glances in her direction, and her heart tightened instantly.

She silently moved to Hua Qi's side, using his tall figure to block the probing gazes.

At the same time, she frowned slightly and glared at Ouyang Qiao with displeasure, complaining that he had spoken to her in such a setting.

This is their reception hall; how can they be allowed to make noise and chat idly here?

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Ouyang Qiao became increasingly agitated.

"You used to be so happy for me, so why are you now so heartless in turning me away? There must be a reason, it must be because of him! He must have forced you to stop showing me your true feelings, right?"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger directly at Hua Qi, who stood silently to the side, his eyes flashing with anger and resentment.

Faced with the nearly out-of-control Ouyang Qiao, Chu Yunyi frowned and involuntarily moved a few steps behind Hua Qi.

She couldn't help but worry: what if this man suddenly went crazy and hurt her?

It's safer to stay behind Hua Qi for now.

Seeing this, Hua Qi quickly shielded her tightly behind him and gently pulled her towards him.

His brows furrowed slightly, his sharp gaze fixed on the man opposite him, and he said in a deep voice,

"Fellow Daoist, if you want to act crazy and run wild, you should at least take a good look at where you are! Besides, Junior Sister Yunyi has already clearly rejected you, so how can you be so tactless and keep pestering me?"

Upon hearing Hua Qi's words, the man known as Ouyang Qiao became increasingly agitated.

He glared at Hua Qi, his face contorted with rage, and roared.

"It's all because of you! You must have forced her, otherwise why would she be so heartless and ungrateful to me?"

As he spoke, Ouyang Qiao drew his sword, seemingly intending to make a move.

The group of people who came with Ouyang Qiao realized that the situation was not good.

They knew that Hua Qi's cultivation was unfathomable and that he was no ordinary person. If they really fought, they would definitely be the ones to suffer.

So, a few people ran over and forcefully pulled Ouyang Qiao back from the brink of losing control.
