"Well..." Gao Cuilan bit her lower lip and reached out to tug on Tian Peng's sleeve, "Hero, would it be possible for you to stay another day?"
The saying goes: Heroes are vulnerable to the charms of a beautiful woman. Tian Peng felt a jolt through his body at Gao Cuilan's slight gesture. He coughed and his gaze drifted to the left, "Well then, I'll heed Miss Gao's wishes and stay another day."
The Elder Village Chief and his wife exchanged a smiling glance and then said, "That's wonderful. Since the hero is willing to stay one more day, I've already prepared food and good wine for you. Please, hero, partake."
Tian Peng felt somewhat embarrassed and only replied after Chen Gong nudged him, "Ahem, alright then, let's go."
At the table, the Village Chief's wife began to inquire about Tian Peng's background, "May I know where the hero hails from? By your appearance, you seem to be from the Central Plains, am I right?"
"Ah, yes, I'm from the Central Plains," said Tian Peng.
