Chapter 17: The Lady's Temper
Just when Lin Yueru was only a few steps away from Ling Chen, ready to rush up and scare him.
As if sensing it, Ling Chen turned his head to look at Lin Yueru with a smile, "What's the matter?" β
"Ahh Lin Yueru never thought that this Ling Chen would suddenly turn around at this time, although he saw a delicate face, he was also taken aback, and he lost his center of gravity and fell downstairs.
"This crazy girl, is she here to be funny?" Seeing Lin Yueru lose her center of gravity in a panic and fall downstairs, Ling Chen was also quite speechless.
However, although he was speechless in his heart, Ling Chen would not watch the eldest lady of the Lin family fall, only to see him rush forward with an arrow step and grab Lin Yueru.
"Are you alright?"
"Hmm...... You let go of me! After being caught by Ling Chen, Lin Yueru's frightened heart was stable, and when she came back to her senses, she found that her slender jade hand was actually caught by Ling Chen, and she immediately struggled out strongly, and subconsciously scolded, "Stink." β
"Uh......" was scolded by Lin Yueru like this, Ling Chen was also a little speechless, and he kindly saved her not only did not hear half of the word thanks, but was scolded by him for being stinky**, this treatment ...... It's a little too unfair.
"Heh......" Seeing this Ling Chen being scolded by himself, the expression that was stunned by grievances, Lin Yueru suddenly felt that the young man in front of him who was about the same age as himself didn't seem to be as annoying as he imagined before, and seemed to be a little cute. Immediately, a rare smile appeared on his face, "Hey, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing by this window?" β
"Ah...... I should ask you this, what are you doing on this roof in the middle of the night? For this Lin Yueru's questioning, Ling Chen was stunned again, and secretly said that this eldest lady is the eldest lady, obviously you ran to the roof to play in the middle of the night, and asked me why I didn't sleep, this unreasonable Cheng dΓΉ is more than a little bit.
"Hmph, I'm Lin Yueru, this is Lin Jiabao, is there anything wrong with me playing on the roof of my house, but you, don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing sitting on this window?" In the face of Ling Chen's rhetorical question, Lin Yueru brought out her eldest lady's unreasonable side to the fullest at this moment, and said to Ling Chen with a hint of arrogance.
"Oh, it turned out to be the eldest lady of the Lin family, disrespectful, disrespectful." Ling Chen said calmly, he had already guessed Lin Yueru's identity, so he was not the slightest surprised at the moment.
Seeing Ling Chen's calm reaction, where was the slightest disrespect, Lin Yueru was also quite speechless, "Hey, it's your turn, you haven't told me that you don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing sitting on this window?" β
"Look at the stars." Ling Chen replied lukewarmly.
"Stars, what's there to see." For Ling Chen's answer, Lin Yueru raised her head very disdainfully, but when she looked at this beautiful starry sky, she was also a little shocked. She couldn't remember the last time she had looked at the stars in such silence, but I have to say it was a pretty good feeling.
"It turns out that the stars are pretty good-looking." Lin Yueru was also sitting outside Ling Chen's window at this moment, looking at the beautiful starry sky and said.
"Yes, there are many things that you will find beautiful when you calm down." Looking at Lin Yueru, who had quieted down, Ling Chen had to admit that she was a great beauty who was no less beautiful than Li Qiushui in the Tianlong World.
"Yes, when I was a child, my mother told me that if a person didn't do anything bad, she could look at us on those stars after she died." Lin Yue looked at the beautiful starry sky at such a moment, and also remembered the story she snuggled in her mother's arms when she was a child......
"Uh, what's going on?" Because of looking at the beautiful night sky from the rooftop, Lin Yueru didn't know when she fell asleep, and when she suddenly woke up, it was already early the next morning, and she slept in the guest room where Ling Chen lived.
"Ah, is that stinky ** ......" Lin Yueru was completely broken about falling asleep on this roof and then being carried to the guest room by Ling Chen. Immediately, he was also shocked in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to see if he was taken advantage of by Ling Chen.
Fortunately, her clothes are still worn well, and there is no trace of unraveling. As for Ling Chen, he had long since disappeared, looking at the neat appearance in the guest room, as if he had never been in it.
"Whew, it's okay, I didn't take advantage of that stinky **...... No, is Miss Ben so unattractive, that hateful hypocrite! Originally, seeing that she had not been taken advantage of by Ling Chen, Lin Yueru breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart. But before she could finish her breath, she suddenly thought that in the process of being carried to the bed by Ling Chen, Ling Chen actually didn't have any interest in her, a big beauty, and didn't take advantage of her, and a strong unwillingness came out of her heart, making her a little good impression of Ling Chen's hard time disappearing, and even the title changed from the previous stinky ** to a hypocrite.
I have to say that women's hearts are sometimes so contradictory.
In fact, Ling Chen was not uninterested in Lin Yueru, last night, when he saw Lin Yueru such a super beauty sleeping beside him, it was false to say that he was not moved.
However, thinking that Lin Yueru is the second heroine of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, and the touching story that Li Xiaoyao has in the original story, Ling Chen immediately dispelled this idea, after all, he came to this world of Sword and Fairy to change Li Xiaoyao's tragic fate, not to be the protagonist's rival in love and rob his wife.
And after carrying Lin Yueru into his room, Ling Chen came to the starry sky again, and with the help of the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth at this time, he tried to test how powerful the golden silk in his body was.
Lin Yueru, who woke up in Ling Chen's room, also hurriedly returned to the room, but the scene in front of her frightened her, only to see that Lin Tiannan didn't know what had arrived in her room, and was waiting for her with a blue face at the moment.
"Daddy...... How did you get to my room? For Lin Tiannan, who suddenly appeared, Lin Yueru was really taken aback, after all, she didn't stay in her boudoir in the middle of the night, and she herself understood that it was very reasonable.
"Hmph, what am I doing here, if I don't come, I'll know that you crazy girl dares to run out to play in the middle of the night, saying, where did you run away?" Lin Tiannan slapped his palm on the table in front of him angrily, and the table made of solid wood actually turned in half in half in an instant at this moment.
"Uh...... Dad, don't be angry, I'm not fine? It can be seen that Lin Tiannan is really angry this time, Lin Yueru's usual eldest lady has all her temperament, and she looked at Lin Tiannan and said very quietly.
"Hmph, it's okay...... It's too late when something happens, and a girl doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, so where did she go? Seeing Lin Yueru's pitiful appearance, Lin Tiannan also softened. Although he is the owner of the Lin Jiabao Castle in front of outsiders, in front of his only daughter, he is just a doting father.
"I went to see the stars yesterday, and the sky was full of stars last night, so I thought of my mother, and then I fell asleep after seeing the time......," Lin Yueru of course wouldn't stupidly tell Lin Tiannan that he went to Ling Chen's place yesterday, and he could only briefly tell Ling Chen about looking at the stars after seeing Ling Chen.
"I see...... Ru'er, don't go out in the middle of the night in the future, after all, you are a girl, and it is dangerous to go out late at night...... I'm tired of watching the stars all night, so I'll rest for a while, and I'll ask the maid to bring you a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold. Hearing Lin Yueru mention her mother, that is, her deceased wife, Lin Tiannan's anger was gone. After all, he knew very well in his heart that he had single-handedly raised Lin Yueru over the years, and although he tried his best to give her the best, he didn't send her the mother's love that the child needed most. So Lin Tiannan always felt that he was a little sorry for Lin Yueru, every time Lin Yueru mentioned his mother, no matter how big the fire was, he couldn't get out.
"Dad, I'm fine...... Didn't catch a cold. Feeling Lin Tiannan's strong concern, Lin Yueru felt that her nose was sour, and she stepped forward and hugged Lin Tiannan and choked up and said, her anger at Lin Tiannan's forcible recruitment of her son-in-law disappeared. After all, no matter how strong Lin Yueru looks on the outside, she is just a little girl who is less than 20 years old, and in her father's arms, all the grievances can't be held back.
"Ru'er...... In the past, it was not good for dad to forcibly meddle in your marriage, but dad is really good for you, and he wants to find a good son-in-law to love you and take care of you, after all, dad can't take care of you for a lifetime. Lin Tiannan touched his daughter's head and said very kindly.
"Daddy......"
"Ru'er, this young man that my father is looking for you this time is really good, he has a strong internal force at a young age, he is a martial arts wizard, and his father also understood clearly in yesterday's family banquet, he is the only one left in his division in this world, and the relatives in this world are only the eldest brother of the Shushan faction who separated from him before, so whether in terms of character or life experience, he is the best candidate for our son-in-law in Lin Jiabao, if you are empty, go and see it." This time, Dad won't force you, you will tell him again if you fall in love with Daddy, you can't look down on ...... Forget it. Originally, Lin Tiannan wanted to say that no matter whether you look at it or not, in short, your father has taken a fancy to this kid, he is your future husband, but when he saw Lin Yue so pitiful, his heart still softened, and he could only take a step back for a while and let Lin Yueru make his own choice after going to see Ling Chen. After all, Lin Tiannan is still very confident in his heart, Lin Yueru will definitely be able to take a fancy to Ling Chen.
"Hmph, that's that hypocrite, it's weird that I like him." Thinking of Ling Chen's disappearance after putting himself on the bed, Lin Yueru was very disdainful in her heart. However, she naturally wouldn't tell Lin Tiannan about this matter, so she could only nod her head as if she was dealing with it temporarily, "Got it, Dad." β
"Haha, okay, this is my good Ru'er." Seeing that Lin Yueru finally agreed to meet Ling Chen, Lin Tiannan smiled happily.
"Master, master......" At this moment, there was a shout from the servant outside the door, as if something had happened......
