Lin Xiaodong took Forsythia all the way to the lobby on the first floor of Zuixian Building. No one dared to stop him on the way.
After all, he had just defeated three powerful men in the God Transformation Realm by himself! Even if the people in Zuixian Tower wanted to stop him to settle accounts, they had to weigh his own weight first.
When the two of them walked out of the gate, the people who were watching the excitement outside Zuixian Tower were startled and immediately dispersed, giving them a way to leave.
"Good fight! Liang Jingyu has always been domineering and likes to bully men and dominate women. It's time to teach him a lesson!"
"If I remember correctly, this is the second time he has beaten Liang Jingyu, right?
The Liang family was provoked so many times, why didn't they take any action?"
"It was okay last time. This time I think Liang Jingyu may have been disabled. The Liang family will definitely not let Lin Xiaodong go."
"Then what can be done?
The Liang family has a great business in Qianshui City, so Lin Xiaodong should never provoke the Liang family."
"I think Lin Xiaodong will have a hard time in the future... No matter how powerful he is, can he fight against a big family?"
Lin Xiaodong listened silently to the discussions of these idlers, but felt a little disdainful in his heart.
One reason why Liang Jingyu was beaten so hard today was that Liang Jingyu dared to molest Forsythia, which made him very angry; another reason was that he was not afraid of revenge from the Liang family at all.
Lin Xiaodong suddenly stopped. Everyone thought that his words had angered him, so they all closed their mouths, and the place was completely silent.
Unexpectedly, he said with a smile: "Since I beat Liang Jingyu today, it means that I am not afraid of the Liang family's revenge. You can go tell the Liang family and ask them to come!"
The people watching were stunned for a moment, and soon began to chatter again.
"He said he's not afraid of revenge from the Liang family. What, is he really not afraid of death?"
"I don't think so. Maybe they are really confident that they can challenge the Liang family!"
"Are you sure you can challenge the Liang family?
Even the current city lord has to show courtesy to the Liang family, why should he be an outsider?"
Lin Xiao secretly laughed in his heart and let them discuss it while he pulled Forsythia away from Zuixian Tower.
"Let's go back to your hospital."
Walking on the road, Forsythia seemed to be struggling with what to say. After a long time, she finally spoke: "Thank you so much for what happened today. If it weren't for you, Liang Jingyu would probably do something to me..." "Don't-"
Lin Xiaodong shook his head and signaled her to stop talking: "Stop thinking about it. This matter has already passed. Thinking about it any more will only increase your fear."
Forsythia nodded obediently, trying to cheer herself up and stop thinking about what just happened.
However, she was still very uneasy in her heart.
"I think what those people just said makes sense. The Liang family will definitely look for opportunities to retaliate against you later. What will they do then?"
Lin Xiaodong was a little disdainful: "You don't need to think about this. You saw the battle just now. I'm not afraid of the Liang family at all."
"Okay, I'm just a little worried..." After that, Forsythia lowered her head and walked silently.
"So, is it really Qiao Tingting who brought you to Zuixian Tower today?"
"Yes, that's her.
She usually only worships money and likes to associate with those rich people. I didn't expect that today she wanted to give me to Liang Jingyu in exchange for their preferential treatment... Oh, she really knows people but doesn't know their hearts. It's a shame that I thought she was
good friend."
Being betrayed by her good friend just now was even more difficult for her than being bullied by Liang Jingyu.
"Now that you know it, don't interact with her again. If she does something like this once, she will do it a second time."
"knew.
"Forsythia looked a little sad, and suddenly said: "By the way, I want to ask you something."
"whats the matter?"
"That is, regarding today's matter, can you help me keep it a secret?
I don’t want my family to know, otherwise..." Because Liang Jingyu often harassed Forsythia, even his family has always hated him.
Especially her brother Liancheng, if he knew that Liang Jingyu had molested her, there's no telling what he would do.
Although she hated Liang Jingyu, her family was more important to her.
Therefore, she asked Lin Xiaodong to keep it a secret from her family.
"I understand what you think. Well, since you don't want them to know, then I will naturally keep it secret."
"Thanks!"
Forsythia smiled at him, feeling that her depressed mood was relieved a little. After all, she always felt a strong sense of security by Lin Xiaodong's side.
After all, this man had saved her three times. In her mind, it seemed that as long as she stayed by his side, there would be no danger.
She couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiaodong several times, feeling that the inexplicable emotion she felt for him in her heart not only did not subside because of Ruolan's incident, but instead intensified.
After taking a few furtive glances, Forsythia suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, you're hurt!"
Lin Xiaodong followed her line of sight and saw that his arm was indeed injured during the battle, but it didn't hurt much, so he didn't care.
He had suffered countless injuries more serious than this before, and this was just a superficial wound at best.
"It's okay, don't worry about it, you'll be fine after a while."
"How can you ignore it?"
Forsythia anxiously came over, grabbed his arm, and examined his wounds in the moonlight.
This wound was a sword wound, not large in area, but quite deep. Fortunately, no bones were injured.
She tore off a piece of cloth from her body and said, "Don't leave it alone, otherwise there may be scars later. Let me help you deal with it... By the way, do you have any hemostatic medicine on you?"
Lin Xiaodong is an alchemist, and he always carries various materials, elixirs, and small hemostatic medicines with him, so he found a bottle and took it out.
Forsythia took the hemostatic medicine, carefully sprinkled some on his wound, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
This little pain was nothing to Lin Xiaodong, and he shook his head.
Forsythia helped him apply the medicine and gently bandaged the wound, fearing that it would hurt him if she applied too much force.
"Okay..." At this time, she was shocked to realize that the distance between the two seemed a bit too close. Her face was almost touching Lin Xiaodong's arm, and she could even feel Lin Xiaodong's warm breath on her neck.
She jumped up as if she had been shocked: "Uh, um... I'm sorry."
"It's okay, thank you."
Lin Xiaodong didn't mind, since this section of the trail was remote and no one else should have seen it.
But when the two of them raised their heads, they saw Liancheng standing in front, staring at them with a playful look.
