Chapter 123: Reckless Brother!
Yu Xin Lock.
It is an heirloom that the Ling family has inherited for many generations.
I heard from the clansmen that the Ling family is a large family that has existed since the Song Dynasty, and has been in the same lineage, has experienced countless storms and changes of the times, and has always stood tall.
It's this heart lock.
It is rumored that Yu Xinsuo was obtained by an ancestor of the Ling family in ancient times. This ancestor, who was just a poor woodcutter at first, one day got a good relationship and helped a person who had attained Taoism, and this Taoist master gave Yu Xinsuo as a gift to the ancestor of the Ling family as a gift.
After getting the Yu Heart Lock, this ancestor will have to be windy, rainy, and do anything, you can succeed immediately, and over time...... dragged the family with the mouth, developed into a prominent family, and passed down from generation to generation, extending to this day.
And today's Ling family, more than 20 years ago, was actually ...... Much stronger than it is now.
In the past, Jiangnan Province had four major families.
Among them, there is a place for the Ling family.
But one night more than 20 years ago, Yu Xinsuo suddenly "lost", and from that day on, the Ling family plummeted and fell to this day. Fortunately, after all, the Ling family has enough background support, and with some persistence, it has finally stabilized in its current state.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Ling family is still a big family.
But the real big family has long since stopped taking the Ling family in their eyes.
"Yes."
While Ling Qiu was pondering, Deng Ruyan gently stroked the Yu Heart Lock hanging around his neck: "This heirloom of your family was not lost, but given to me." Therefore, Old Man Ling's kindness, I Deng Ruyan, and my Deng family, will remember it for life. β
At this moment, Ling Qiu understood everything.
To put it simply, the old man is kind to the Deng family, and Deng Ruyan wants to repay the favor, so he chose his grandfather's most beloved self as the object of repayment, and promised him by himself.
emmmmβ¦β¦
It's clichΓ©.
However, it is a very reasonable explanation.
In Ling Qiu's opinion, this Yu Heart Lock was probably a spiritual thing that could affect the character of life, after all, it was an heirloom that had blessed the Ling family for so many years.
"Can you lend me a look?"
Ling Qiu said.
Deng Ruyan smiled slightly, took off the Yu Xin lock, and slowly walked towards Ling Qiu: "There is no need to say borrowing." This is your Ling family's treasure, if you want to take it, I won't say much. β
Ling Qiu turned his heart locked, put it in his hand, and in an instant, his heart was stunned!
Really!
It's a baby!
Just by taking a squirt, Ling Qiu immediately sensed an extremely rich aura!
In the aura, there is also some kind of miniature and complex formation!
Seemingly...... This Deng Ruyan, what he said is true!
"Since the old man gave it to you back then, I naturally have no reason to leave."
Ling Qiu figured everything out and returned the Yu Xin lock to Deng Ruyan.
Although this is a good thing, but Ling Qiu is not so hungry to eat, Yu Xin locks it to Ling Qiu, at most, it is just to absorb the aura in it, but if it is placed here by Deng Ruyan, it can save her life, and even the entire Deng family.
Deng Ruyan smiled slightly, squatted down gently, and this squatting just happened to clearly present the deep furrow under the collar of her red dress in front of Ling Qiu's eyes!
What's worse is ......
"Don't you wear underwear?"
Ling Qiu couldn't help but say.
Deng Ruyan's face flushed slightly when he heard this, but he was not too shy: "I live by myself, I don't care." You and I are not outsiders, just watch it if you want. β
"Don't look."
Ling Qiu didn't look away, although he also admitted that it was indeed tempting: "Save you from using this as an excuse to really rely on me." β
"I'm not an uninteresting woman."
Deng Ruyan pursed her lips and smiled: "If you are willing to marry me, then I will marry you." If you don't want to marry me, I won't force you. It's just a lifetime of loneliness, and I can bear it. β
Saying that, Deng Ruyan turned around: "Help me put it on." β
Hearing this, Ling Qiu paused slightly, hesitated for a short two seconds, and Ling Qiu still personally put the Yu Heart Lock on Deng Ruyan's neck.
Deng Ruyan got up, turned his head, gently stroked the Yu Xinlock on his chest, and smiled gently: "Thank you." β
Ling Qiu waved his hand: "Don't thank me. I already know everything I want to know, and now, you and I have met. After that, you and I will have nothing to do with each other. β
ββ¦β¦β
Deng Ruyan stared at Ling Qiu's eyes, her eyes were gentle, calm, and bright as stars.
"May I ask a question?"
"Ask."
"You...... Don't have a good impression of me at all? β
Favor?
Ling Qiu touched his chin.
In terms of Deng Ruyan's patience, her demeanor and mentality, and her determination to repay her kindness, she is indeed a woman who is difficult to hate.
"A little."
"Only a little?"
"Yes, just a little."
"So what if I say...... As long as you marry me, then ...... Not only can I help you sit on the position of the head of the Ling family, but I can also use the means of our Deng family to support your Ling family to a level comparable to the past, so ...... Would you have a little more affection for me? β
ββ¦β¦β
Ling Qiu narrowed his eyes when he heard this: "Congratulations to you, I have wiped out the little good impression I have of you." β
Deng Ruyan: ???
Rao is as smart as her, and she can't help but be stunned at this moment.
What do you mean?
I just said this...... It's a very generous promise......
Why do you lose that little bit of goodwill?
This moment......
She suddenly felt ......
This Ling Qiu, she is really a little unable to see through.
During this time, she had been paying attention to Ling Qiu, from the initial impression of his waste, to gradually discovering that Ling Qiu showed some good things, she faintly felt ...... The old man of the Ling family, it makes sense to choose Ling Qiu as the sole heir of the head of the family.
Out of admiration and respect for the old man of the Ling family, she believed in the old man's vision.
So......
She had always believed that Ling Qiu should be a dragon and phoenix among people, but ...... He didn't have a stage to show his skills.
But no matter what, she didn't feel that she couldn't see through Ling Qiu.
But at this moment......
She was really confused.
She knew she was good, very good. But, she is not a narcissistic woman for no reason.
She also doesn't think that if she is good, all men must fall in love with her at first sight.
But Ling Qiu was different from anyone's indifferent and casual attitude......
But it still made her a little incomprehensible.
She knew very well that all this was not pretended by Ling Qiu.
"I don't know what makes you angry, but ...... I'm still going to say I'm sorry. β
Deng Ruyan still said unhurriedly.
Ling Qiu suddenly said, "I can see that you think you are ...... You are not a conceited person. But on the contrary, you are. β
Deng Ruyan raised his eyes and looked at Ling Qiu suspiciously.
Ling Qiu said: "It's your business to repay your kindness." It has nothing to do with me. Got it? β
After saying that, he turned his head and left, this time, never looked back.
Deng Ruyan was left standing in place, pondering Ling Qiu's words carefully.
However......
Just when Ling Qiu was about to push the door and go out.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Sister! Open the door! β
