After hearing that, Wuhlrict smiled. "Haha. They are in love and are already engaged. So I have no objection to the suggestion as long as Gilda is alright with it.""Gilda, come and have a look at the present we prepared for you. There are many fourth-grade alchemical pills and fifth-grade spiritual herbs."Frederick was very confident Gilda would accept the present and marry him happily, so he passed the spatial ring to her. However, he was stunned to see Gilda hesitate and not as happy as he thought she would be."Frederick, there is something I wish to tell you. If you still like me and are willing to marry me after hearing it, I would be glad to agree with the proposal," Gilda said after giving it a thought.After hearing that, Severin was quite shocked. He knew what Gilda was referring to and knew she wanted to tell Frederick that she was no longer a virgin. He admired her for having the bravery to confess to Frederick."What else do you want to say? Do you think my son is
The answer helped to unwind some of the tension Gilda was feeling. She continued to ask, "Then do you think it's important that your wife is a virgin?"Frederick gave it a thought and said, "Not really, I guess. It's quite common nowadays. As long as two people are in love with each other, they don't have to bother much about if they were each other first."Gilda nodded and looked at Frederick with anticipation. "Really? Then would you still love me if I'm not a virgin anymore?"At that moment, Frederick felt like a bomb exploded in his head. He stood there feeling stunned and wondered if he heard it right. He knew Gilda since they were small, and he knew what kind of girl Gilda was. She was definitely not a girl who would sleep around or would have sex with someone who was not her husband. Most importantly, he was Gilda's first love. Therefore, it just did not make sense that Gilda was not a virgin anymore.After a while, he smiled embarrassingly and still refused to believe it. "
From Frederick's reaction, she could tell he was not happy and was in a bad mood. However, she did not know what to say anymore. It was a really tough thing to accept.Yet, she firmly believed Frederick and her could easily overcome this difficulty because they had been in love with each other for many years. She was confident that her beauty and gifted talent were better than many.Moreover, Wuhlricht had told her that it would be easier for her to train because of her current constitution. It would take less effort for her to accomplish what many needed years and hard work. Sooner or later, she would join the rest of the top-tier fighters in her generation."Who is that man? I want to kill him!" Frederick asked angrily while clenching his fist."I don't know either and I don't want to know. My dad has asked him to leave. The further the better. He is not going to tell anyone else about this," Gilda replied."He's not? There is only one type of person who would not tell secrets—a
"You're right about that! Gilda, I'm the strongest and most gifted person in our generation. Do you know how many women would die to be my wife? So why should I marry a woman who is not a virgin anymore?" Frederick sneered.Frederick did not care if what he said would hurt Gilda."Besides, there are no secrets that time does not reveal. What would people think of me when they know it? I'm going to be the biggest laughingstock in this world. Do you still think I should marry you?"Gilda was very disappointed. "No. I'm sure that's not going to happen. Didn't you say it's not important that your wife is not a virgin? Aren't you the one who says it's normal to have a few relationships before marriage? You said it's not going to be a problem for you!"Frederick reacted with a sneer. "Gilda, my dear, you are so naive. I'm talking about the ordinary man. They should be happy to marry a beautiful woman as their wives. They are not in the position to be complaining about this or that!"The
"Mr. Wulricht, we shall be on our way. Goodbye." Marcus saw the look on Frederick's face and knew something must have happened."Goodbye, Mr. Marcus!"By now, Wuhlricht guessed Gilda must have told Frederick what happened.Otherwise, Frederick would not have said that. He came to ask Gilda to marry him, and he had prepared the gift too. Nothing else would have made him change his mind except for that.Wuhlricht sent them off politely while feeling embarrassed. However, he despised Frederick. Gilda did not lose her virginity on purpose. It was done under the condition that her life was in danger. What a shock to see Frederick could not understand it.It just proved that he did not love Gilda as much as he claimed."I'll go look for Gilda," Severin said as he was afraid Gilda would do something bad to herself.Wuhlrict nodded and sighed heavily.The Second Elder was stunned and did not know what just happened.The Third Elder was dumbstruck too. "What happened? Why did Frederick
Gilda could not hold back anymore. She dashed into Severin's arms and started crying."Why? Why does he mind it so much? Why is it that he would rather see me die? Is it really that important for guys to be the first man to sleep with the girl?" Gilda sobbed and complained.Severin stood there extended his hands out wishing to hug her back. However, he stopped halfway. At least, he did not have the right to hug her now.Severin smiled bitterly and consoled, "Silly girl, it's not your problem, and don't blame yourself. He doesn't love you as much as he said. Don't worry. You are a good girl. You're going to find a man who loves you and is willing to protect you with his life."Those words managed to give some comfort to Gilda. Only then did she realize she was hugging Severin. Her face turned red. She quickly backed off a few steps and wiped away her tears."How are you now? Do you feel better after crying it out?" Severin asked with a smile."Yes, I feel better now." Gilda nodded
The serious look Severin had on his face assured Gilda. She nodded and went on to tell Severin what happened."I have a special constitution. It's very rare…"Shortly, she felt so much better after telling the truth.Severin nodded. "If I were your dad, I would do the same thing too. I don't believe a father would bear to see his daughter die when he knows there is a way to save her."Gilda nodded. "Yes. I was angry at him too. He didn't inform me before he made the decision. But I came to terms with it and understood why he did it. If he had asked me, I would never have agreed at that time. I just didn't think Frederick would mind it so much."Severin consoled, "Don't worry. He's going to regret it in the future. Now you must treasure your life and live. At least surpass him in terms of attainment and let him know what a stupid choice to break up with you.""Thank you, Severin. Don't worry. I'm not going to do anything stupid. You're right. I need to make full use of my life. I
"Are you serious? Gilda is not a virgin anymore?" Marcus was very furious when he heard that. He said with his gritted teeth, "How dare she go behind your back to be with another man when she was engaged with you? Is she trying to humiliate us on purpose? Frederick, we can't leave just like this. We need to go back and kill her. This is outrageous!"The Great Elder said, "There's nothing wrong if she wants to look for another man if she is not engaged to you, but she did it while knowing you two were going to marry in the future. Damn her! Even if we don't destroy the Skyblue Sect, we should kill her at least!""If this gets out, it is going to tarnish the sect's reputation and Frederick's reputation too!" another elder said with gritted teeth.Surely, they would not allow this to happen to their sect."Mr. Marcus, let's head back and ask them to hand over Gilda. If they refuse, then it gives us a reason to destroy them. We shouldn't let them think they could get away after bullyin
