After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Lin Fengmian didn't even need to look up to know who it was.

Liu Yiyi.

That green tea bitch.

He didn't even lift his eyelids, and began to tidy up the spiritual fruits on the ground.

"Sorry, we're closing up shop."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi's smile froze slightly.

But she quickly composed herself.

She put on a pitiful look, her voice so soft it could melt your heart:

"Brother Fengmian, is this really necessary? We're engaged, after all. What you're doing... makes Yiyi so sad."

engagement?

Lin Fengmian sneered inwardly.

This woman really knows how to bring up the very thing she doesn't want to talk about.

When she broke off the engagement, she was hedging her bets, wanting to keep herself as a backup option.

Now, they're putting on a victim act again.

He ignored it and continued tidying up.

But just then, an arrogant voice rang out from beside Liu Yiyi:

"Yiyi, who is this person?"

Lin Fengmian looked up and saw a young man dressed in the robes of a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Holy Land standing next to Liu Yiyi.

His face was fairly decent, but his eyes and brows carried a hint of arrogance and frivolity typical of spoiled brats.

Liu Yiyi saw Lin Fengmian finally look up.

She was secretly pleased, but her face showed even more grievance. She tugged at the young man's sleeve and whispered:

"Senior Brother Jiang~ This is the person... This is the person who broke off his engagement with Yiyi back then."

As she spoke, her eyes reddened, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Upon hearing this, the young man frowned and looked Lin Fengmian up and down.

When he saw Lin Fengmian packing up his street stall, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

He stepped forward, looking down at Lin Fengmian, and sneered:

"Ha, so you're that ungrateful brat?"

"You good-for-nothing street vendor, how dare you break off your engagement with Yiyi?"

He turned to look at Liu Yiyi, his tone full of flattery:

"Yiyi, it's a good thing he broke off the engagement, otherwise you would really be a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi felt a surge of pride, but on the surface, she feigned reluctance and tugged at his sleeve, whispering:

"Senior Brother Jiang, please stop talking... It's all in the past."

The young man snorted coldly, glanced at the spiritual fruits on the stall, and said in a sarcastic tone:

"Junior Sister Yiyi, you did the right thing. Marrying a good-for-nothing like him who sells goods on the street would have been a real disaster."

Lin Fengmian originally didn't want to pay attention to these two clowns.

But these two, singing in unison, were more annoying than flies.

He took a deep breath and did not immediately lash out.

Instead, he carefully collected each of the spiritual fruits on the ground and put them into his storage bag.

These things cost a lot of money. If they get damaged in a fight later, he'll be heartbroken.

Seeing his cowardly appearance, the young man assumed he was scared and became even more arrogant.

"What? You think nothing's wrong just because you're not saying anything? Let me tell you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Fengmian had already packed his things and slowly stood up.

He looked up at the young man, his eyes calm and undisturbed.

Then, his thin lips parted slightly, and he coldly uttered a single word:

"roll."

The young man was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"What did you say?!"

Seeing this, Liu Yiyi quickly grabbed his sleeve, pretending to be anxious:

"Senior Brother Jiang, don't be angry! Lin Fengmian... that's just his temper, he didn't do it on purpose!"

While she offered words of advice, a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Chen is an inner disciple of the Heavenly Profound Holy Land, with a cultivation level of the early Foundation Establishment stage. He is the new backer she finally managed to get in touch with.

Lin Fengmian dared to offend him; he's definitely going to get what's coming to him today!

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Jiang Chen's anger intensified.

She flung Liu Yiyi's hand away, stepped forward, pointed at Lin Fengmian's nose, and cursed:

"Hey kid, say that again, you fucking idiot?!"

The surrounding cultivators, seeing the conflict break out, immediately perked up and gathered around.

"Hey, this is going to be interesting!"

"Who's that kid?"

"I don't know, but it looks like I'm going to get a beating today..."

Listening to the surrounding discussions and glancing at the two adulterous couple in front of him, Lin Fengmian suddenly had a thought.

Since she wants to play, then play along.

He took a deep breath, and his face instantly changed to a pained expression.

Those clear eyes looked at Liu Yiyi with deep affection and sorrow, her voice trembling slightly:

"Little sister Yiyi, I just drank a bit too much that night and... took your virginity, didn't I?"

Upon hearing this, the surroundings fell silent.

immediately--

"Holy crap?!"

"What's going on?!"

"First blood?! These two had an affair before?!"

The surrounding cultivators' eyes lit up instantly. They craned their necks, pricked up their ears, and their faces were full of excitement as they watched the spectacle unfold.

The smile on Liu Yiyi's face froze instantly.

She stared wide-eyed at Lin Fengmian in disbelief, momentarily forgetting to react.

Lin Fengmian seemed oblivious to her expression and continued speaking in that deeply affectionate yet pained voice:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely take responsibility for you! Why... why did you find another man to deliberately upset me?"

He paused, then looked at Jiang Chen, who was completely stunned, his eyes filled with "sorrow":

"Fellow Daoist, I know you've been kept in the dark too. But Sister Yiyi... she has feelings for me, so please let go."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding area erupted in chaos!

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! It turns out it was a relationship dispute!"

"Judging from this, that woman had a fling with this kid, and now she's hooked up with a disciple of the Heavenly Profound Holy Land?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this woman looks so innocent, I never expected her to be such a green tea b*tch!"

"Look at her expression, she's definitely up to something!"

The surrounding cultivators whispered among themselves, and their gazes toward Liu Yiyi instantly became subtle.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi's mind went blank, and she quickly spoke up:

"Lin Fengmian! What nonsense are you spouting! When...when did I ever sleep with you!"

Her voice was shrill, her face flushed red and then turned pale, and she stomped her feet in frustration.

Lin Fengmian, however, still wore that heartbroken expression, even sighing and looking at her with a mournful gaze:

"Yiyi, how can you deny it? We both drank too much that night, and you pulled me aside to tell me your innermost thoughts, saying that Lin Fengchen, that idiot, wasn't good enough for you... and then you just... sigh."

He paused, as if recalling some beautiful scene:

Do you remember? You were wearing a red dress that day, the one you're wearing today.

You said this is your favorite piece of clothing, and you want to save it for the most important person in your life.

Later... you leaned against me and said you wished it could always be like this.

He spoke with such sincerity and detail that it seemed as if it were a true story.

The surrounding cultivators' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when they heard this.

"Holy crap! These details don't seem made up!"

"That woman really was wearing a red dress today!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this gossip is getting bigger and bigger..."
