Instantly, the atmosphere turned awkward.
Third Uncle waved his hand and spoke to Madam Cheng, “Sister, let’s not talk about the past. Let’s not ruin the rapport that we have built between our families.”
He was the Lin Family’s Third Master. Her husband would call him Third Brother respectfully whenever he met him. It was not good for her to make him look bad. Besides, her disappointing son kept pulling her sleeve, begging her not to trouble Lin Wan anymore.
After all, she had been in the underworld for years and had gone through lots of adversaries. Her ability to control the atmosphere was quite strong. Madam Cheng smiled and did not take Lin Wan’s words to heart.
“You’re right. We shouldn’t let this ruin our rapport. I’m here for two reasons. Firstly, I want to discuss something with all of you. However, this is not that urgent. Also, I would like to ask for a favor from your family!”
“Please let us know any
Everyone seemed very happy except Lin Wan who sat in a corner silently with a depressing look. “Lin Wan, are you okay?” Mrs. Hong asked concernedly.Lin Wan cried and said, “He even thought of changing his bones. It’s going to be very painful!”Third Uncle and the rest got up and left after seeing that Mrs. Hong hugged Lin Wan and comforted her gently, “We shouldn’t underestimate Li Mu. He’s a strong-willed man and can shoulder the family burden. Your judgment is good. And indeed Li Mu deserved to have you as his partner.”“I know. But he went to ask two girls to change his bones for him. I’m going to kill these two whores!”Helplessly, she cried when she said that. “Oh. So this is the saddest thing for her.” Mrs. Hong did not know how to advise her after that. Indeed, it was inappropriate for the girls to change Li Mu’s bones. Apparently, it was something that Miss Lin did not want
“Mrs. Hong, stop talking to Xiaoyu in that way!” Lin Wan pretended to be angry and scolded her. Mrs. Hong got what she meant at once and knew what she was planning to do. She purposely looked at the opposite side and smiled without saying a thing. Lin Wan asked He Xiaoyu, “Xiaoyu, are you planning to cultivate fatal energy by changing your bones?”Lin Wan was clever enough not to expose her plan and found a reasonable reason for her.He Xiaoyu took the opportunity and nodded her head. “Using the Bone of Death to cultivate fatal energy indeed is the best way for now. After you do it, the spirits and ghosts won’t dare to go near you. Then, you don’t have to remove your spiritual eye too.”“Yeah. That’s what I thought. Lin Wan, can you help me with this?” He Xiaoyu looked at her with hope. Lin Wan pretended to look hesitant and then went to look at the broken Corpse of Death. She murmu
“Yeah!” Lin Kun said honestly.“You must be in anguish.” He Xiaoyu said softly. “Miss He, you’re wrong. Is it necessary to express your love to someone when you are in love with a person? Does loving a person mean you must be with her? As long as she is happy, I’m happy, too.”“Your love is so great!” He Xiaoyu complimented him.Subsequently, she said, “And so lowly!”Lin Kun smiled and shook his head. “Great or lowly, it is my duty and responsibility. Of course, it’s my life, too.”“We have a lot of similarities between us!” He Xiaoyu said sadly.Lin Kun turned around and looked at her again with a joking face.“You and I are similar? Miss He, you don’t have to comfort me. How could it be possible that you and I share many similarities? Trust me. You’ll live a happy life afterward. You just have to be a little more patient now.”“How did you know about it?” H
Lin Danyang was shocked at Cheng Feng’s appearance when he saw him.Sitting on the floor and leaning against the edge of the bed, Cheng Feng was surrounded by bottles of wine. The room was filled with a disgustingly strong stench of alcohol.Lin Danyang couldn’t help but pity this man in front of him. He was so obsessed with Lin Wan, which was something Lin Danyang had never expected.“Brother Cheng Feng. Brother Cheng Feng!” Lin Danyang called out softly.Cheng Feng didn’t respond after Danyang called him a few times. So Cheng Tian walked over to him and leaned down to speak to him, “Young Master, Master Danyang is here to see you!”Lin Danyang waved his hand at Cheng Tian and instructed him, “Give us some privacy. I'll talk to him for a while.”Cheng Tian responded and waved his hand. With that, several attendants at the door swarmed in and cleaned up the room by picking up the wine bottles. Cheng
Shen Xingyue was completely stunned and did not come to her senses for a long time.What was this mess? Setting fires, stealing cars, and even taking away two of her sisters?“Mother, whom did he bring along with him?”Third Grandaunt said angrily, “Who else could it be? It’s Zixing and Ming’er! These two ungrateful brats who can’t do any better ran away with that b*st*rd!”“They don't know each other very well, do they?” Shen Xingyue questioned. The two girls were quite proud and arrogant. So it was hard to imagine them running away with a stranger.“I’ve thought about it. They are definitely together now. With their skills, it would be a piece of cake for them to bring Li Mu back. So much time has passed and they are still nowhere to be seen. Obviously, they’ve run away together with him with no intentions of coming back.”The more Shen Xingyue listened, the more confused she became. Were Shen Zix
With the birth of Shen Xingyue, Third Grandaunt had no choice but to confess the matter as there was no other way out. The child needed to be acknowledged by her ancestors. She couldn't possibly let her beloved baby become a child with no family tree and ancestors!But things like this weren’t something to be proud of. So after discussing with her Fifth Sister and Seventh Brother, she decided to tell her elder brother the truth first so he could think of a way to cover up the matter of the child.Seventh Brother called Shen Xiao to the mountains, who was furious after hearing what his sister said. He was not against his sister getting married. But it was absurd to have a child without getting married yet at her age!If word went out, the clan would think that she was licentious and wild, which would definitely cause an uproar.Shen Ying knew that she had not thought things through and listened to her elder brother’s lecture
“Yueni!” Third Grandaunt held her in her arms.“Please don’t be angry with all your uncles and me, especially your First Uncle. Now I realized his good intention.”“Mother, what are you talking about?”“My child, listen to me. From now onward, your life doesn’t belong to you anymore. Your body is sustained by our clansmen’s lives and expectations. You’re the hope of the Shen Family and the key to the continuation of our existence. The elderlies are hoping that you will lead the Shen Family to walk out of the village and be prosperous once again.”“Mother, you think I can do it?” Shen Xingyue asked nervously. “I, your late First Uncle and the uncles here affirmed that you could do it. With our support, surely you can accomplish it!”“Yes!” Zihe Taoist said immediately, “I think you can do it, too. Yueni, please don’t worry. I’ll protect you and support you even if I have to die!”Everyo
It was Shen Xingyue. The person who called her was Shen Xingyue!The three women in the house became nervous immediately. He Xiaoyu asked excitedly, “Is Li Mu together with you now? Where are you?”Shen Xingyue sighed and her tone sounded a little disappointed.“He was with me before. But he has left to somewhere else.”Though He Xiaoyu knew about the situation, she asked deliberately, “What do you mean? What do you mean that he has left to somewhere else? Where did he go?”“I’m not sure where he went. He left without saying anything, not even a goodbye to me!”“You have had a conflict, haven’t you?”“Not really. We were happy with each other. I guess he has misunderstood me. That’s why...”“You said that he had misunderstood you. What happened between you guys?” He Xiaoyu continued probing even though she knew clearly why Li Mu ran away from her. She asked this so that the
