"I make my own decisions regarding my life-long issues. Even the sect cannot force me." Lin Ruo's attitude was very firm.
"Junior brother, Miss Sisi is naturally beautiful and smart. She has the cultivation of an upper-level king at a young age. Why can't you agree? Becoming Jiangnan's Chenglong son-in-law will be of great benefit to your future." Meng
Xi Lai didn't understand. If this matter fell on someone else, it would be a great thing. Why was Lin Ruo so resistant?
"Haha, let's not talk about this anymore. I wonder what Lan Zhengxiong is doing?" Lin Ruo said with a smile. "What can he do? Looking at the body of Wan Guchou, he is worried. It is true that Wangu Chou is dead, but the Star God
The palace will not settle the matter, and when the people from Fengyun Wuzong come, they will still raise an army to investigate." What Meng Xi said coincided with what Jiang Nan said.
"Today I felt that another junior Taoist emperor was hostile to me." Lin Ruo thought of the purple-robed man in the square and didn't understand how that man could have murderous intentions towards her.
"There are still people who are hostile to you? Why is this? Do you have any other enemies?" Meng Xi didn't understand when she came. Lin Ruo had encountered more things than she had practiced for decades.
"How do I know, but his hostility is real. There is a leaf embroidered with red silk thread on the collar of his robe. Senior brother, do you know which force it belongs to?" Lin Ruo asked.
"Maple Leaf Valley! That sign belongs to Maple Leaf Valley. How could the people in Maple Leaf Valley be hostile to you? It's really strange." Meng Xilai also felt puzzled.
"Senior Brother Lin, Qing Ning would like to see you." Just when Lin Ruo and Meng Xi came to chat, Chen Qing Ning came over.
"Senior Sister Qingning is here, please come inside!" Lin Ruo let Chen Qingning into the lobby.
"Qing Ning has met Senior Brother Meng." Chen Qing Ning entered the lobby and handed Meng Xi a greeting.
"You're welcome, sit down quickly." Meng Xi came and poured Chen Qingning a glass of water.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't help you much today." Chen Qingning took a sip of water and said to Lin Ruo.
"Haha, what did Senior Sister Qing Ning say? What happened today was so sudden that no one could do anything about it," Lin Ruo said with a smile.
"I came here to remind you that many people are hostile to you, so you should be careful in the future." Chen Qingning reminded Lin Ruo.
"Senior Sister Qing Ning, what do you mean by this? Is there any sign?" Lin Ruo knew that Chen Qing Ning would not be innocent, so there must be some sign.
"Well, many disciples from various factions, as well as disciples from the Star Palace, have a favorable impression of Miss Jiang Sisi. Now that Deputy Head Jiang is very ignorant of you, it is normal for them to be hostile." After saying this, Chen Qingning stared.
Lin Ruo looked at it.
"So that's it. I understand. They can do whatever they like. When I leave the Star Palace, this matter will fade away." Lin Ruo said with a smile.
"I hope so, but you still have to be careful, people's hearts are sinister." Chen Qingning stood up and said.
"Lin Ruo knows, thank you, Senior Sister Qing Ning." Lin Ruo cupped her hands towards Chen Qing Ning and sent him out of the VIP building.
As soon as Lin Ruo returned to the VIP building, Meng Xi came and circled around Lin Ruo, looking around.
"Senior brother, what are you doing?" Lin Ruo was stunned by Meng Xi's look.
"It's okay! It's okay! I'm just a little envious of you. Why do such outstanding women think about you? Jiang Sisi is like this, and Chen Qingning is like this too." Meng Xilai said with some jealousy. "Brother, don't be ridiculous, I went to practice late.
Come down at one o'clock." Lin Ruo got up and went upstairs, leaving Meng Xi who opened her mouth to speak.
"There is indeed a reason for being strong in combat. Hard work is the way to go." Meng Xilai shook her head and said.
After practicing for most of the day, Lin Ruo went downstairs. He still had to go to Nantian Tower. He had to go to Jiangnan's banquet. For others, it was a good thing that brought honor to others, but for Lin Ruo, it was a troublesome entertainment.
"Senior brother is leaving." Lin Ruo shouted to Meng Xi who closed her eyes to rest.
"Start? Why?" Meng Xilai opened her eyes and asked inexplicably.
"Let's go to Nantian Pavilion. Don't you know that Deputy Head Jiang asked us to have a drink?" Lin Ruo said with some surprise.
"That's calling you, not me. What does it have to do with me?" Meng Xilai shook her head and said.
"Did senior brother ask me to go alone?" Lin Ruo stepped forward and took Meng Xilai's arm and walked outside.
Meng Xi had no choice but to be dragged out of the VIP building by Lin Ruo and walked towards Nantian Pavilion.
When they arrived at Nantian Pavilion, the disciples of Nantian Pavilion brought Lin Ruo and Meng Xilai to Jiangnan's residence.
Jiang Nan is the deputy head of Xingchen Palace. He was born in Nantian Pavilion and was the last Pavilion Master of Nantian Pavilion.
"Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Meng, please come inside soon." When they arrived at Jiangnan's residence, Jiang Sisi came out and welcomed the two of them in.
Entering the reception hall, Lin Ruo saw Jiang Nan. Sitting next to Jiang Nan was a lady who looked about forty or fifty years old. Next to the lady was a man in purple robe. Lin Ruo was startled when she saw the man in purple robe.
Because this man in purple robe was the one who had the intention to kill him in the morning.
"Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Meng, this is my mother, and this is my cousin He Bai." Jiang Sisi introduced them to Lin Ruo and Meng Xi.
"Lin Ruo has met Deputy Head Jiang, Mrs. Jiang." Lin Ruo bowed to Jiang Sisi's mother, and then slightly raised her hands to He Bai. Although she knew in her heart that He Bai was not a kind person, she still had to get by with the scene.
.
"Meng Xi came to see Deputy Head Jiang, Mrs. Jiang." Meng Xi came and bowed to greet him, and also raised her hands to He Bai.
"Okay, we are all heroes and phoenixes among people, heroes among people. Please take a seat." Jiang Nan nodded slightly. Mrs. Jiang smiled and waved her hands to the two of them. On the other hand, He Bai sat on the chair and did not move. Jiang Nan turned to look at He Bai.
Without saying a word, he smiled and nodded to Lin Ruo and Meng Xi.
"Everyone has tea." Jiang Sisi first poured tea for her parents, then poured a cup for Lin Ruo and Meng Xilai, and then came to He Bai with the teapot.
"Thank you, cousin." He Bai said with a smile.
"No, cousin, do it yourself!" Jiang Sisi put the teapot on the table next to He Bai, turned around and left, leaving He Bai with an embarrassed look.
"Abai, we are all members of our own family, so you can be more casual." Mrs. Jiang noticed her nephew's embarrassment and gave him a step up with a smile.
"Don't worry, aunt, my nephew understands." He Bai nodded and said.
Lin Ruo was confused. This He Bai should be the child of Jiang Sisi's uncle's family. How could he be hostile to him? He didn't offend Maple Leaf Valley either.
"The food and drinks will have to wait for a while. Brother Meng, let's play a game of chess!" Jiang Sisi took the chessboard from the cabinet on one side, walked to the seat next to Meng Xilai and sat down, placing the chessboard on the table between the two of them.
Jiang Sisi knew that she was no match for Lin Ruo and did not dare to attack Lin Ruo. Another point was that she was addicted to torturing Mengxi.
"Miss Sisi, I'm not your opponent, why don't you forget it?" Meng Xilai said with a grimace.
"Men, don't be coy. You can't do anything. You have to have the courage to fight. If you can't win, why don't you lose?" Jiang Sisi came up with a set of theories to block what Meng Xilai was going to say next.
"Okay!" Meng Xilai bowed her head and accepted her fate.
Then the lobby became quiet, except for the sound of Jiang Sisi urging Mengxi to come and get off quickly.
"Uncle, aunt! This time Abai is congratulating my uncle on his birthday. The other is that he wants to propose to Sisi. Please ask aunt and uncle to help Abai." He Bai stood up and came to Jiangnan and Mrs. Jiang, bowed and said,
These words made the originally quiet lobby seem extra loud.
"Bang!" The chess piece in Jiang Sisi's hand fell to the chessboard, obviously shocked by He Bai's words.
"Abai, your aunt and I will not interfere in Sisi's lifelong affairs. Everything is up to her." Jiang Nan said with a smile. Mrs. Jiang also nodded slightly and agreed with her husband.
"Sisi, your cousin proposed to you, what do you think?" Mrs. Jiang asked her daughter.
"What and what? I haven't had enough fun yet. Let's not think about it for now. We'll talk about it when we meet someone we like." Jiang Sisi waved her arm and refused directly, while looking at Lin Ruo. He Bai was shocked, and at the same time
He also looked at Lin Ruo, knowing in his heart that his uncle's words were just excuses. No intervention? No intervention for you to propose marriage to Lin Ruo?
"Lin Ruo, it's not dinner time yet, why don't we have another plate?" He Bai walked up to Lin Ruo with a smile.
