253: There was once a true love in front of me, but I didn't cherish it...

Outside the Immortal Sword Inn in Jinling.

An old woman grabbed her unmarried adult son, repeatedly cautioning him:

"Baoguo! The blind date I arranged for you is waiting at Table 9 inside the inn. This girl was introduced by your Aunt Liu!"

"You're not getting any younger, so you can't miss this opportunity..."

...

The old woman spoke earnestly, but her son, Ma Baoguo, remained visibly insecure, shaking his head and waving his hands repeatedly.

"No, Mom! I'm not going, you know I have bad breath!"

"I've been on so many blind dates by now, if not a thousand, then at least eight hundred. As soon as those women smell my bad breath, there's usually no follow-up."

"I've given up. Living out my days alone is perfectly fine."

...

Ma Baoguo sighed. He, too, longed for a wife, children, and a warm home.

But because his bad breath problem remained unresolved, no woman would look at him.

Even though he spent a lot of time and money trying various methods to improve the problem, the treatment results were still unsatisfactory.

Facing her disheartened son, the old woman looked pained and could only comfort him softly... "Son, don't you usually like a singer named [L]?"

"I heard his company produced a pill specifically for treating bad breath, called the [Hundred Flavor Fragrant Body Pill], claiming it can 100% cure bad breath after taking it."

"Mom asked someone to get you one. Try it and see if it works."

...

With a 'dead horse as a living horse' mentality, the old woman pulled out a golden pill and put it into Ma Baoguo's hand.

Ah... this?!

My idol [L] started a company?

I spent the whole day playing the 'Death VS Naruto' mini-game, so I really didn't pay attention to what was happening online... Ma Baoguo looked slightly surprised. With a half-believing, half-doubting attitude, he took the pill his mother handed him, tossed it into his mouth, and immediately began to chew.

However, he didn't hold out too much hope... After all, this bad breath problem had been with him for too many years.

Ma Baoguo didn't believe that just one small golden pill could cure the ailment that had plagued him for years.

However, fate always seems to bring a turning point unexpectedly.

As Ma Baoguo put the pill into his mouth, he instantly felt a warm sensation spread throughout his oral cavity.

Gradually, the unpleasant odor in his mouth began to dissipate, replaced by a faint, fresh fragrance... "Ha~~~"

Σ(⊙▽⊙"a Mom, smell this. This... what is this?!"

Noticing some changes, Ma Baoguo gasped in shock, repeatedly exhaling, and suddenly realized that the bad breath that had bothered him for years seemed to have truly vanished into thin air... "It's not smelly, son, it's not smelly! This is great, this is great! Your bad breath is finally cured!"

"In that case, you'll definitely be able to get a wife! It's truly the blessing of our ancestors!"

"When I get home later, I'll enshrine [L]'s memorial tablet. He is the benefactor of our Ma clan and deserves to receive our family's generational offerings."

...

The old woman looked delighted, eagerly inhaling Ma Baoguo's exhaled breath, feeling the refreshing fragrance waft towards her.

She couldn't help but shed tears, embracing her son, crying tears of joy.

No one knew how many cold stares and taunts they, mother and son, had endured over the years trying to cure bad breath, all to little avail.

Now, because of this tiny pill... their Ma clan would be passed down for thousands of generations. It was truly a blessing from heaven!!!!

... "Alright, son! Go in for your blind date first! That girl is at Table 9, don't keep her waiting."

"This time, show off your personal charm and make the girl submit to you in one fell swoop!!!"

"Mom is still waiting to hold her grandson~~~ Hurry, hurry~~~"

"I need to go home now and take down the ancestral tablet, replacing it with [L]'s virtual avatar."

...

Amidst her excitement, the old woman suddenly remembered the blind date and quickly pushed her son.

"Mom! Don't worry! Your son will bring you a daughter-in-law tonight."

Ma Baoguo patted his chest repeatedly, a look of pride on his face.

After curing his bad breath, he suddenly felt capable again, full of confidence in his appearance.

He then strode into the inn with an arrogant gait, reaching room number 9, and pushed the door open... Originally, Ma Baoguo didn't have high expectations for his mother's taste.

But he never expected... sitting in the room... were two beautiful young girls.

The one on the left was petite, with a loli figure, wearing a JK uniform, dressed in a two-dimensional cosplay outfit, looking extremely cute.

The girl on the right wore a pure white dress, her skin like congealed fat, with an innocent and flawless temperament that made Ma Baoguo instantly recall his youth, remembering the most beautiful time of his first love.

Hiss~~~

Oh my God!!! (((;꒪ꈊ꒪;)))

Mom's taste this time is extraordinarily good!!!!

Ma Baoguo's eyes widened, his breathing quickened, and his inner thoughts were jumping with excitement.

As an unmarried old man nearing 40.

He never imagined that his blind date this time would be such top-quality girls, and two of them at that.

If he could win over these two beauties, he'd be willing to live ten years less...

Seeing the two girls look at him with surprise, Ma Baoguo felt he should take the initiative, fully display his advantages, and leave a deep impression on them.

So, he cupped his hands towards the room and said with righteous indignation:

"Two ladies, my name is Ma Baoguo, and I am the high-quality gentleman who is here to meet you two for a blind date."

"I am a martial artist, the founder of the Hunyuan Tai Chi Boxing Association, and currently also the head of Hunyuan Xingyi Tai Chi Boxing."

"No more talk! Please, two ladies, first enjoy my unique killing move—the Lightning Five Consecutive Whips!"

...

In Ma Baoguo's outdated mindset, women were all attracted to power; they all liked men stronger than themselves.

So, as long as he showed enough strength and made the girls feel secure because of him, he would surely win their hearts.

Thinking this, Ma Baoguo took a deep breath, composed himself, as if isolated from the surrounding world, with only him, his Tai Chi, and the impending "Lightning Five Consecutive Whips."

Suddenly, he moved.

His movements were so fast, like lightning flashing across the night sky... The first whip, he rushed forward with lightning speed, but in an instant changed direction, sliding across the ground like a loach, his movements appearing comical and funny.

The second whip, he leaped into the air, rolled once, and then plummeted, smashing his fists heavily onto the ground.

Crack!

The pain made Ma Baoguo grimace, but to show off in front of the girls, he forced himself to remain calm.

He then executed the third whip, suddenly leaping backward, spreading his arms wide, like a great roc spreading its wings.

But because he didn't stand steadily, he stumbled, almost falling to the ground.

Fortunately, Ma Baoguo managed to stabilize himself and used the momentum to deliver the fourth whip.

He suddenly bent down, hands on the ground, legs flailing wildly in the air, like a comical clown dancing.

Of course, Ma Baoguo, completely unaware, quickly struck a dashing pose and delivered the final whip.

This time, he seemed to use all his strength, letting out a loud shout, but only delivered a light, flimsy punch... Pfft—

"Uncle, you're so funny (〃'▽'〃)~~"

Just as Ma Baoguo was basking in his heroic posture, one of the loli girls suddenly burst out laughing.

What (O_o)?!

My "Lightning Five Consecutive Whips" was so fierce, and this girl actually said it was funny?!

Ma Baoguo was about to retort when the loli girl spoke again:

"Uncle, did you come into the wrong room? We're just here to travel in Jinling; we didn't arrange any blind date."

Nani (ÒωÓ ױ)?!

This, this, this... impossible, absolutely impossible!!!!!!!

Ma Baoguo looked disbelieving, taking a few steps out of the room to check the room number [9].

I didn't go to the wrong one?!

Just as Ma Baoguo was utterly bewildered... the two girls walked out of the room hand in hand. The loli girl glanced at the room number, used her hand to rotate the [9] 180 degrees into a [6], and then pointed to a room at the end of the corridor.

"Okay, so it was a 6 that flipped..."

"Uncle, Room [9] is over there!"

Ah... this?!

Watching the two girls' graceful figures disappear into the distance, Ma Baoguo felt his heart shatter, a look of wanting to cry but having no tears on his face.

His knees buckled, and he directly knelt in the corridor, howling to the sky.

"No~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

At this moment, a familiar BGM seemed to play in Ma Baoguo's mind.

[Snowflakes fluttering~~ North wind whistling~~~~]

[Heaven and earth~~ a vast expanse~~~]

...Outside the Immortal Sword Inn.

"Su Su, are we going back so soon?"

"But didn't you say you were in a bad mood and wanted to travel to clear your head?"

"We just arrived in Jinling not long ago, why are we going back already? How about we look around a bit more?"

...

Chen Kexin had a head full of question marks, not understanding why.

She had already planned their next tourist attraction, but then Bai Susu suddenly said she wanted to cut the trip short and return to the Demon City early.

"No, I'm sorry! But I'm tired now, I want to go home."

Bai Susu looked towards the Demon City, her eyes downcast.

Through the recent live broadcast, she finally understood her own heart... Sure enough, she still couldn't let go of her feelings for Lin Xuan.

It must be said, humans are sometimes a masochistic species.

When that boy used to try to please her in every way... she didn't really feel much, merely taking his affection for granted.

But now that she had completely lost him, she felt sad, she would miss him, she would be reluctant to let go...

And after listening to Lin Xuan's live broadcast, Bai Susu had a sudden realization: she didn't want to look back on her life with regrets when she was old...

So she wanted to try one last time, to return to the Demon City and bring closure to her feelings.

No matter what the final outcome, she wanted to say to that boy:

"There once was a sincere love placed before me, but I didn't cherish it. Only when I lost it did I regret it deeply. The most painful thing in the mortal world is nothing more than this."

"If heaven could give me another chance, I would say three words to that boy: [I like you!]."

"If a deadline must be added to this love, I hope it is ten thousand years..."

...

Just like that, under Chen Kexin's bewildered gaze, the two girls boarded the return flight... (.・＿・.)ﾉ I'm sorry~ Sorry, I was a bit busy today. I had an appointment to get our marriage certificate from 10 to 11 AM.

We left a little after 9, and when we got there, I originally thought we'd have to queue... I never expected that there were hardly any people getting married. I don't know if it was too early, it seemed like besides us... there was only one other couple getting married... We registered immediately when we arrived, super fast.

Making an appointment is simple, remember to bring your ID card and household registration book.

@Review reason, image deleted@

I really didn't expect... now I'm also a married person. When I was writing this book, I was still a single dog. It's only been a few months, and I've gone from blind dates to marriage... A strange feeling of emotionԾ‸Ծ~~~

Brothers, I wish you all can also find your own happiness soon~~~

Today I took my wife out to eat. The restaurant was called [Northern Country Restaurant], it was so expensive! A single dish was dozens of yuan, and one meal cost me 227, o(╥﹏╥)o... So expensive Ծ‸Ծ! I've decided to take my wife to eat 10-yuan rice noodle rolls from now on~~~

Alas~~ w(ﾟДﾟ)w

Money is hard to earn, shit is hard to eat, but it's spent super fast!

Good night, (づ￣3￣)づ╭❤～ Also, please give a free 'power for love'~~~

My parents, please, I, your humble little author, bow to you~~~
