A month has passed by.

Yueyin and her father are on the way to the Jin family.

"Why the long face? Come on, cheer up. You're going to see your fiancée. It's not good if you are like that."

I grumble at him. I can't believe he set me up. I thought he was a wonderful person. What a surprise; he's just a jerk.

"Papa sorry okay? Papa should have told you this sooner. Let's just forgive me this one time, okay?" says my father apologetically. "And it's not that bad. His name is Jin Shen. He's one year older than you, and I hear that he has a supreme bone, has a good personality, and is not arrogant toward his peers. I think he is very suitable for you."

"Really?"

Very suitable my A**. I don't want to be homo. F**k you. I will find a way to break this engagement.

But what did you say? Supreme bone? Wait, wait, wait. He has Supreme Bones, from a wealthy family, has a good temperament, not arrogant. Isn't this very protagonist-like?

I remember having read this part in cultivation manga. If I remember, the protagonist will have an artifact with a grandpa residing in it. He will lose all his cultivation, and his supreme bone will be dug out of his body. Then the villainess fiancée will break up with him, mock him for his uselessness, and have her family destroyed because of it.

What? Am I in the protagonist plot? And I have the role of that villainess fiancée? I don't want my family to be destroyed. I don't want to be cannon fodder.

I am not going to let this happen. At least, I will have him see me and my family favorably so he can show mercy. I still need to break the engagement though. But will he hate me then? I shudder at the thought. Seeing that, my father asked in worry.

"Yueyin, what's happening? Did you get sick?"

Realizing that I have been acting weird, I immediately answer gently.

"No, of course not, Father. Actually, I am very happy to see my fiancée."

Whueek, I want to puke, happy my ass. I can't believe I said that. Actually, I am panicked. Sh*t, this is a protagonist we are talking about. If I happen to upset him, I will die.

"Good, good. Your mother has shaped you well."

Wow, so you like to see me suffer too? Sadistic f**king piece of sh*t. Here I am trying to save this family from a calamity. Haah, not that I blame my parents; they see me as their girl, not as their boy.

Waaa, all of this happened because of the mistake of one god. I am so angry I want to ki... Better not think about it. I bet he can trace me and hear my thoughts.

As I deal with my chaotic thoughts, we arrived at the Jin family. There I see an old man who was at the garden with my father, with a little boy waiting at the front gate. He must be Jin Shen. He has blue hair and a very determined face. As expected of a protagonist, even his appearance is unique. Seeing them, my father says,

"Jin Fan, where's the other elder?"

"I am sorry for the lack of courtesy, Patriarch Yun. The other elders are in seclusion, so they are not available at the moment."

"It seems they have gone mad. How dare they disrespect me?!" says my father with fury.

"Please calm down, Patriarch Yun. Please give me some face. I will explain the situation later."

Seeing my father like that, my heart is in turmoil. Waaah, my family is doomed. No, I can't let this be. As I see the protagonist suffocated from the pressure, I hurriedly said,

If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

"Papa, can you please forgive them this time?" I said with pleading eyes.

Seeing my eyes, my father's eyes softened.

"For my daughter's sake, I will forget this disgrace. Come, show the way, Jin Family Elder Jin Fang."

As the tension dropped, my father was guided to the guest hall. Then the old man says,

"Shen, accompany the young lady to the garden. Don't be rude to her."

"Alright, Grandpa," while looking at me, he reached his hand to me and said, "Come, I will show you to our ponds."

With a smile, I take his hand. My heart was chaotic as he escorts me to the garden.

Calm down, me. Bear with it for a while. I have to make him happy. Don't make him angry. As I make a note of it in my head, we arrived at the garden.

The garden was big. There's a big pond and flower beds everywhere, although it's not as big as the garden in my family.

After that, we sat on a bench. As he suddenly looked at me and said,

"Let's not pretend anymore."

"What do you mean?" I reply to him while smiling awkwardly.

"I know you don't like me. I don't like you either, so drop the act."

Surprised, I ask cautiously, "How do you know?"

"I know by the way you look at me. Even though your face is smiling, your eyes are not. My family is like that too; the one who's honest with me is my gramp and little Yao."

Feeling helpless, I decided to be honest with him. "Okay then, I will be honest with you. I don't want to marry you. Let's break our engagement."

"I don't want this engagement either, but I can't decide this matter. Gramp has planned this marriage when I was 1 year old, so I kept quiet about it. I don't want Gramp to worry about me. I don't want to increase his burden."

I sigh and say, "It seems we can't do anything about it. I tried to beg my father about it, too, but he declined."

I then looked at him and sighed.

It seems the protagonist has his own worry too. Then if I can't break the engagement now, I can break it later. It will be broken either way when his bone has dug out of his body. I can just be friends with him so he will not feel too betrayed by then. After thinking about that, I ask him,

"Hey, let's just be friends. I can never like you, so friends are fine, right?"

"How can we be friends? I don't know anything about you," he said jokingly, then said, "How about this? You tell me about yourself; I will tell you about mine. Then we can be friends. I don't know about this, but I feel like I can tell anything to you."

"Okay then." So we talk about our life. I talk about having a childhood friend, about how I like wrestling, cultivation experience, and other wonderful experiences since I came to this world. Seeing that I have talked so much, he smiled at me.

I think I have been seen favorably by the protagonist.

Next is his turn, so he tells me about his life. Apparently, he has a childhood friend too. Her name is Chao Yao. He says that she has been playing with him since he was 5 and always follows him wherever he went. So I ask teasingly, "Did you like her?" He immediately retorts, "I did like her, but as a little sister. She should be your age at this time."

Wow, isn't this a protagonist heroine?! When the protagonist is at his lowest, she will shower him with love, and love blooms between them. Lucky him to have a woman delivered to his side by the heaven.

Then he continued his story. I listen to his stories and ask occasionally. To summarize things, his mother has been dead since he was still a baby, his father never cared for him, being the youngest, he often was bullied by his brother and often despised by the people around him. The one who reached to him was his gramps and his childhood friend Chao Yao.

At least until he turned seven and became eligible to cultivate. At that time, he soared through his peers. Many wanted to be friends with him, but he knew, despite the smiles of others, beneath them was malice, so he endured, wanting the recognition of his father. He humbled himself and tried to be kind toward the one who despised him.

Listening to his story, I feel pity for him. I want to comfort him, but I don't know what to say, so I deliberately change the topic. I ask whether he has a hobby or what he did when not cultivating, etc. Considerable time has passed without realizing it. We talked about many things, and now it's almost noon. It's time for me to go home.

.............,................,..............,..........

Meanwhile, at the guest hall,

Remembering the scene at the front gate, yun bao asking begrudgingly,

"So what's this about? If the reason is not good, I will consider the promises never happened."

"I am sorry for the Jin family's lack of courtesy. I will be honest with you. Actually, the matter of the engagement has not been publicly spread, and I still haven't told the matter of your arrival to the other elder. I don't want their hand on this matter."

"Why did you not tell them then?"

"Actually, it's regarding Jin Shen's situation. My daughter or Jin Shen's mother betrayed the family. She suddenly became berserk and killed other family members while having an important artifact of the Jin family. Then she was killed by her husband. This happened when Jin Shen was still 1 year old. I smell conspiracy from them, especially from the other mistress, as they have other elder protection. This happened when I was out. I can't uncover the situation, so I decided to keep quiet to investigate what was happening, but to no avail. After that, I decided to protect Jin Shen. Many covet his supreme bone, and I can't protect him alone, so I seek the backing from the big family. That's where you came from. After getting the Yun family backing, no elder has been able to make trouble with that kid, but I can't stop the young one. Fortunately, there's this child from the Heavenly Sacred Sect beside him, so I can be at ease. I decided to tell you about this because I trust you."

"So that's why you asked me for a favor back then. Even though he has a supreme bone, he was treated poorly. Poor boy. But I must see what my Yueyin's choice is. If she likes him, we can still continue with the engagement. If not, consider this promise null."

After that conversation they stood up from their seat and go to the garden.

Yun bao see that his daughter having enjoyed her conversation with that boy. 'It seems she likes him.' Sometimes he see joy, surprise, and sadness from her face. Seeing that, yun bao sigh. It seems that I have neglected my daughter too much. As he thought that, time flies. The day was almost noon. It's time to go home. Yunbao see his daughter notice him, and his heart softened, yun bao smile at her 'Really, she is so cute. Having a daughter is the best. Maybe I will have one again?' Aaah, I suddenly miss my wife.

.......,.............,.............,...........,.......

Father has been waiting for me outside the garden. He smiles at me; maybe his mood has been good after chatting with the old man. After that, the old man and Jin Shen escort us out. I hope Jin Shen can see me favorably the next time we meet, probably when his tragedy begins.

I stand at my father's big sword as I notice a girl peeking at us from the hallway. She has pink hair and pink eyes. Wow, she is so cute. She must be the heroine. I wonder if I can make her my harem member. But maybe that's not possible; she is already destined to become the protagonist woman anyway. I can't compete with the protagonist. I thought that as we go back to our home...
