The Mage Of Primordial Chaos Chapter 6

Advertisement

My fiancée's name is Lan Gui Ying. This was an engagement decided before I was even born, when my parents were still two of the top geniuses of Shenzhen. The Lan family is a subsidiary family of the Xuan family, and have always wanted to suck up to them. Therefore, when the Lan family heard that my mother was pregnant with me, they took advantage of this opportunity and paired me up with the eldest daughter of their family, who had just been born at the time - Lan Gui Ying.

When the news came out that I was a useless trash with no magic powers, the Lan family was shocked. The son of two geniuses, born without any magic? What a joke. They doubted the news at first, but eventually succumbed to harsh reality.

But then, what about the promise made 8 months ago prior to my birth?

They cannot allow their eldest daughter to marry a piece of trash! You would think, okay, just break the engagement then! But unfortunately for them, things were not so simple.

If the public knew that the Lan family were abandoning their future son-in-law just because he is flawed (which was exactly what they were planning to do), it wouldn't reflect well on their reputation. Therefore, they needed a cover up - some kind of excuse. However, even now, they have yet to come up with a good reason to break off the engagement.

Truth to be told, I do not have any feelings towards this eldest daughter of the Lan family. In fact, I hate their family as a whole. They abandoned me as soon as they found out I didn't have an innate element, when they were practically begging my parents to agree to this engagement before I was born. Lan Gui Ying? We've never even talked to each other, much less become affectionate. That's why I didn't feel anything when I saw her intimately chatting with the third young master of the Li family. Jealousy? What a farce.

"Big Brother Xuan Kai, what are you staring at?" a soft and cute voice caught me off guard.

The voice belonged to Qing Yue, eldest daughter of the Qing family, as well as my non-blood-related little sister. She had forcefully dragged me here to this luxurious Western restuarant for our school's lunch break.

"Mmm? Oh, nothing," I replied. "Are you done ordering?"

"Yeah, more or less. Did you see someone you know?"

It seems that she was convinced something was off about me. "No. Don't worry about it," I said, implying that I do not wish for her to pry further.

"Alright then! What do you want to eat?" she asked. "You haven't even opened your menu."

"Ah...just pick something out for me, I'm not experienced with this kind of thing."

"Mmm...okay!"

After ticking off her selections on a piece of paper, Qing Yue called the waiter that had handed us the menus over and passed the paper to him. The waiter then collected the menus back and told us the food would be ready very soon. Qing Yue grabbed a glass cup filled with lemon water and playfully twisted the straw around a little before finally taking a sip.

"Mmm, this is pretty nice!" she said, satisfied with the drink. "This is very refreshing. Try it yourself!"

Although it is November, the temperature is still unusually high in this area. They say it's because of a newly discovered fire elemental dwelling place. The Global Magic Association is currently in the process of excavating it, and the heat waves from that are spreading all around the Guangdong province. Thus, even though it's supposed to be winter, it still feels like summer. I decided to listen to Qing Yue and placed the straw in my mouth. As soon as the lemon water entered my mouth, I could understand what Qing Yue meant when she said 'refreshing'. Indeed, it was cool and relaxing, with just the right amount of sourness.

After a short while, the waiter from before came to our table once again, this time with two plates of food. He placed one in front of Qing Yue and the other in front of me.

"Please enjoy your meal," the waiter said professionally, and walked away.

Lying in front of me was the exact same thing that was in front of Qing Yue, and contains a steak patty, several sauces and condiments, as well as an appetizer.

"You got both of us the same thing?" I asked Qing Yue.

"Naturally. We are family, shouldn't we like the same things?" she replied.

"...I see."

Qing Yue then explained how to use a knife and a fork to me, and the correct way of eating steak. We finished the meal in about 15 minutes, then spent some time reminiscing about the past. By the time we were done, there was only 10 minutes before the lunch break ended. I stood up from my chair.

"We should head back," I said to Qing Yue.

"Aww...that was so fun though!" Qing Yue replied happily and stood up as well. "We should come together again, don't you think?"

"...Sure."

"Hehe...it's almost as if we are a couple!" she said while clutching onto my arm. I looked down at her. With those faintly red cheeks and long white hair, she could easily be mistaken for an angel.

But just as we were about to exit, an arrogant voice from behind us just had to called out.

"Well, well, well...if it isn't the one and only Fei Wu Kai!"
