In the city lord's mansion, after the three people came out of the treasure house, Jiang Jinghu said to Luo You: "I have to go back to the sect, return the token to the sect master, and report the situation here. During this time, you can help me take care of things in the mansion.
, If you have anything to do, wait until I come back to talk about it!"
Luo You nodded, cupped his fists and said, "I obey your orders!"
Afterwards, Jiang Jinghu looked at Lin Tianheng and said seriously: "Second brother, eldest brother is going back. When you come back, you must have returned to the clan. Remember to come and see eldest brother when you have time in the future!"
Lin Tianheng said with some reluctance: "Brother, please stay one more day! Tomorrow is the auction!"
"Haha! Brother must go back. He doesn't like things from small auctions like this!" Jiang Jinghu said with a smile.
Lin Tianheng did not try to persuade him to stay. After Jiang Jinghu and Luo You handed over some things, they left the city lord's mansion. Lin Tianheng found Lingxin and others, said goodbye to Luo You, and returned to the Chamber of Commerce.
After returning to the Chamber of Commerce, a guard immediately ran up to Liu Xiaoya and said respectfully: "Miss, the sect's inspection envoy is here. Now we are going to reconcile with Manager Liu in the mansion!"
Liu Xiaoya nodded, then dismissed the guards, and the group passed through the Chamber of Commerce and returned to Liu Mansion.
As a group of people walked on the road, Lin Tianheng asked curiously: "Xiaoya, who is this patrol envoy?"
Liu Xiaoya smiled slightly and said: "This inspection envoy is here to find trouble! Just like in previous years, he said he was inspecting and checking accounts, but he was actually here to collect benefits!"
Lin Tianheng nodded as if he understood, and thought to himself: "Then this patrol officer must have a lot of money to make!"
Thinking of this, he looked at the fat man and said, "Fat man, don't you still have one hundred thousand crystal stones? How long will this be your pocket money?"
"Brother Lin, keep your voice down, don't let Xiaoya hear you!" Fatty reminded in a low voice.
Then he whispered: "My annual pocket money is only about 10,000 yuan. As for these 100,000 crystal stones, it was because I entered Yuanwuzong, and my father secretly gave it to me! Don't let Xiaoya know about it!"
"Um..." Lin Tianheng said speechlessly. This answer surprised him. He originally thought that these 100,000 crystals were the fat man's annual pocket money.
"Brother Lin, do we want to go see the inspector?" The fat man asked at this time.
"If you don't go, that's your family's business!" Lin Tianheng said without thinking.
"Brother Tianheng, that patrol envoy is in the Foundation Establishment Realm. It's so strange. In the past, they were usually disciples or deacons in the Core Formation Realm!" At this time, Lingxin withdrew her thoughts and said.
From the moment she entered the Liu Mansion, Lingxin released her spiritual thoughts to explore the surroundings. When she discovered that the person who seemed to be the patrol envoy was only in the Foundation Establishment realm, out of curiosity, she spoke out.
"Brother Tianheng, let's go take a look!" Lingxin said, holding Lin Tianheng's hand.
"Uh...Okay!" Although Lin Tianheng was reluctant, he was still pulled over. As for Fatty and Zhao Qiang, they returned to Fatty's residence.
Lin Tianheng and Lingxin, led by Liu Xiaoya, arrived in front of the guest reception hall and were about to go in, but Bai Surou happened to come out and bumped into them.
When Lin Tianheng saw the person coming, he was stunned. Then his heart beat faster and he said slightly nervously: "Is it you? Um...are you the inspector?"
When Bai Surou heard this, she smiled slightly and said, "Well! You must be Mr. Lin! Why are you here too?"
"Um...you know me? I, I came to the fat man's house to play, haha! What a coincidence!" Lin Tianheng stuttered a little because of his excitement.
Seeing Lin Tianheng's ambiguity towards Bai Surou, Lingxin felt inexplicably uncomfortable, so she said angrily to Bai Surou: "Hey! Are you Bai Surou, the young lady of the Bai family? I want you to stay away from my brother Tianheng in the future!"
After hearing this, Bai Surou frowned slightly and was a little unhappy, but she still smiled and said, "It turns out to be Senior Sister Lingxin. I wonder why Senior Sister said that?"
Before Ling Xin could answer, Lin Tianheng said first, "Miss Bai, please forgive me. Xin'er is still young and ignorant, and she speaks a little unreasonably. I will apologize on her behalf!" After saying that, he handed over his hand.
"Brother Tianheng, you, you helped her bully me, and I ignored you!" Lingxin said aggrievedly, and ran away with tears in her eyes.
"Xin'er, Xin'er..." Lin Tianheng looked at Lingxin's back and called out twice, and then said to Bai Surou: "I'm sorry, my sister is angry and I have to coax her away." After that,
He chased after him.
Bai Surou looked at Lin Tianheng's back and murmured: "So, it's my sister..."
Liu Xiaoya on the side was stunned and at a loss, and then said apologetically to Bai Surou: "Inspector, I'm leaving first, you can do it yourself!" After that, she ran in the direction of Lingxin.
passed.
After Liu Xiaoya left, Bai Surou said to herself: "Why do I feel a little overwhelmed when I see him?" She shook her head as she spoke.
At this time, Manager Liu also came out of the guesthouse, and then took Bai Surou out of the Liu Mansion.
In a room, Lingxin was sitting on a chair sobbing. Lin Tianheng pushed the door in from outside the room and saw Lingxin who was sobbing, and his heart hurt.
However, Lin Tianheng was very puzzled and didn't understand why Lingxin was like this, so he walked to Lingxin and sat down, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Xin'er, what's wrong with you?"
Lingxin threw herself into Lin Tianheng's arms and choked with sobs: "Oh my god, brother Tianheng, Xin, Xin'er shouldn't have said that to Miss Bai, Xin'er, it's embarrassing for brother Tianheng! Ugh..." Lingxin said.
As he spoke, he cried loudly.
Lin Tianheng felt very uncomfortable listening to Lingxin's cry, but he didn't know what to do. He then gently patted Lingxin's back with his hand and comforted him: "Xin'er, don't cry. If there is anything that makes you uncomfortable, tell me."
!”
"Xin'er, Xin'er feels bad when she sees Brother Tianheng being nice to other girls. Xin'er is afraid that Brother Tianheng will be nice to other girls, so she won't want Xin'er!" Lingxin said with some relief.
The mature Lin Tianheng understood what Ling Xin said and couldn't help but secretly thought, "Isn't this little girl in love with me?"
Lin Tianheng thought this, and then said: "Xin'er, you are my brother's sister. No one can take her away, so don't worry!"
"Is what Brother Tianheng said true?" Lingxin stopped crying and asked.
"Well! I promise you that I will never leave you..." Lin Tianheng said seriously.
Not long after, Liu Xiaoya opened the door and was about to come in. When she saw the scene of two people hugging each other, she felt a little shy and closed the door without coming in. In the past two days, Lingxin and Liu Xiaoya had talked about many things. Liu Xiaoya also learned that Lin Tianheng was not
Lingxin's biological brother, she must have misunderstood the two of them.
As the sky grew dark, Lin Tianheng comforted him again, then said goodbye to Lingxin, and returned to Fatty's residence. Fatty originally planned to arrange a guest room for the two of them, but Lin Tianheng and Zhao Qiang both said that they would just spend one night at Fatty's place, anyway.
It’s also cultivation, and it’s the same everywhere. Fatty can only give up. (To be continued)
