Chapter 198 The River Is Clear and the Moon Is Close
“Grandpa Guo, Duo Duo, you’re here!”
Zhao Yiling gracefully walked to Guo Yunzi and greeted him, before she grabbed Duo Duo’s hand and smiled at her.
“Yiling is getting more and more beautiful. Where is this guy that you talked about earlier?” Guo Yunzi stroked his beard and smiled.
Zhao Yiling blushed and shyly pointed at Wang Hao, who was not far behind her.
Seeing that, all the men at the party felt that their heart break. Had their goddess really fallen in love with a man who wrote erotic limericks?
“Not bad…” Guo Yunzi laughed and said, “He does look quite handsome. I’m sure that Old Zhao will be very delighted to see him.”
“Congratulations on finding your love, Sister Yiling.” Duo Duo covered her lips and smiled.
“What are you talking about? He has to pass another two tests if he wants to marry me.” Zhao Yiling stomped shyly and tickled Duo Duo.
It’s over!
All the men felt hurt. Zhao Yiling, an ice queen, never showed such shyness before. Even a blind person could tell that the ice queen had fallen in love.
“He has passed the test for the poem he offered to you last time!” Duo Duo giggled, holding Zhao Yiling’s hand.
Guo Yunzi smiled and read it aloud. “‘A lady stood in the north, beautiful and detached. When she turned around, a city and a country fell for her.’ It’s truly a great poem!”
Every man felt heartbroken again. It was truly hopeless this time. Their goddess had stated that she wanted a man who was good at both martial arts and literature.
She had probably already been captivated by this poem, which praised her gorgeousness, as well as what Wang Hao created just now.
Now, as long as this man showed talent in martial arts, which did not even have to be extraordinary, he would be able to marry their goddess.
“Grandpa Guo, he wrote something else just now.” Zhao Yiling blushed but looked very proud. After all, it was an honor for a woman to inspire a poet to create multiple works with her beauty.
“Oh? What is it?” Guo Yunzi grew interested.
“It was only two sentences. He hasn’t told me the full poem yet,” said Zhao Yiling shyly.
“Kid, why don’t you share your full poem?” Guo Yunzi looked at Wang Hao hopefully, looking forward to the birth of a classic poem.
Wang Hao rolled his eyes. The poems he remembered consisted of a lot of references to his previous life; his identity would be exposed if he were to read the full poems.
“Old fart, who are you? Why do you think I should listen to you?” Wang Hao snorted in disdain.
Everybody was dumbfounded to hear that. This guy called Guo Yunzi an old fart? Did he want to get himself killed?
Guo Yunzi was one of the most famous poets in this country. If he was angered, Wang Hao would never be able to make a living as a poet. Some of his followers might even try to kill Wang Hao.
It was definitely not a joke, as poets and scholars were well-respected in the Glorious Sky Federation.
“Are you crazy? Apologize to Grandpa Guo right now!” Greatly shocked, Zhao Yiling glared at Wang Hao.
Guo Yunzi waved his hand and said with a smile, “You seem to be a proud kid who doesn’t have much respect for me.”
“You have to earn respect from other people instead of begging for it. Explain this poem I wrote earlier and show me how good you are.” Wang Hao ignored Zhao Yiling.
“Okay! Let’s see what a sophisticated poem you have written.” Guo Yunzi grew interested.
Everybody laughed after hearing that, thinking that Wang Hao was overestimating himself by testing Guo Yunzi with a poem.
Xia Weiwei pulled at Le Xuan’s arm and whispered, “Why do I feel that Wang Hao is setting a trap again?”
Le Xuan nodded. They had seen it a lot. Every time people thought that Wang Hao would lose for sure, they would fall into Wang Hao’s trap.
“In the past, I went boating with a girl. In the spur of the moment, I composed a poem. ‘I anchor my boat on the misty river. The sun is setting, but my sorrow is still fresh. The sky is lowered by the spaciousness of the wild, and the moon is particularly close in the clear river.” Wang Hao raised his head, as if he were recalling a lovely incident from the past.
“You went boating with a girl?” Zhao Yiling turned cold. She had done a simple investigation on Wang Hao’s identity and knew that this Jade-Faced Dragon loved sleeping with knowledgeable girls, but it was still an insult to her that he talked about his history so blatantly.
“What a great poem!” Guo Yunzi praised again and said, “The poem describes the natural view quite well. I think the sorrow in the poem is actually nostalgia.”
“Nonsense. Who’s nostalgic?” Wang Hao said in disdain, before he continued cockily, “Like I said, I was boating with a girl. The mist on the river was very enjoyable, and since it was getting late, we did something we both loved after the sunset. The poem describes that we felt so great when we were doing it that we almost flew to the moon.”
Everybody fell silent. Was this really another erotic poem?
Well, it was an erotic poem without erotic words. Only a real shameless man would have created it!
Le Xuan felt like tearing Wang Hao apart alive as Wang Hao was using her identity. It meant that her name as a lustful poet would spread throughout the Glorious Sky Federation after the party.
After they rescued Qiu Lei and returned to the Universal Federation, she would be known as a girl who wrote erotic poems. Could she ever go shopping again?
