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

Lin Fengmian looked up and saw a woman dressed in emerald green looking him over.

The woman's appearance couldn't be described as exceptionally beautiful; compared to Chu Qingyi and Nangong Li, she was somewhat inferior.

Yet she possessed a delicate and fragile air, with her eyebrows and eyes lowered.

Her lips were slightly pursed, like a fawn about to be startled.

It's so touching that you can't help but feel sorry for her.

Lin Fengmian's memories surged, and he immediately recognized the woman's identity.

Liu Yiyi.

She was the daughter of the main branch of the Liu family, whose strength was comparable to that of his Lin family, and she was also his childhood sweetheart.

The two families have been on good terms for generations and have often intermarried.

This generation was originally engaged to Liu Yiyi.

But ever since my father mysteriously disappeared while exploring a certain secret place,

His status in the Lin family plummeted, and the marriage fell through.

I heard that later his cousin Lin Fengchen took over.

"Oh, oh, oh, isn't this my good older brother, Lin Fengmian?"

A sarcastic voice broke in, filled with undisguised mockery.

"What are you doing wandering around here? Is there anything in this Wanbao Pavilion that you can afford?"

Beside Liu Yiyi, a young man dressed in fine clothes and with an arrogant expression stood with his arms crossed.

He looked down at Lin Fengmian with a condescending gaze.

It was his "good cousin," Lin Fengchen.

"Brother Fengchen, please don't talk about Brother Fengmian like that..."

Liu Yiyi gently tugged at Lin Fengchen's sleeve, her voice weak and timid.

"He's your older brother..."

"Big Brother?" Lin Fengchen scoffed, his face full of disdain.

"I, Lin Fengchen, have no such useless older brother with only five spiritual roots! Does he even deserve it?"

Lin Fengmian frowned slightly, about to speak.

Just then, the maid who had led the way came out of the inner room carrying a jade tray. On the tray were the "Little Heavenly Gang Sword" that Lin Fengmian had purchased and the pile of talisman-making materials.

She walked quickly to Lin Fengmian and bowed respectfully.

"Senior, the spirit weapon flying sword 'Little Heavenly Gang Sword' and the talisman-making materials you purchased have been prepared."

This pavilion has removed all restrictions on it; please use it with confidence.

As she spoke, she presented a pale purple card with gilded edges and a unique material:

"Senior, this is our VIP card. With this card, you will enjoy a 10% discount on all goods at Wanbao Pavilion and all its affiliated merchants. Thank you for your patronage."

"Yes, thank you for your help."

Lin Fengmian nodded calmly and reached out to put the items on the jade plate, along with the VIP card, into his storage bag.

Liu Yiyi's pupils contracted slightly, her heart churning with emotion.

Wanbaoge VIP Card!

She knew very well that only by spending 100,000 spirit stones in a single transaction at Wanbaoge would she be eligible to receive it!

Where did Lin Fengmian, this good-for-nothing abandoned by his family, get so many spirit stones?

Could it be... that he actually encountered some extraordinary opportunity after leaving the Lin family?

The moment this thought crossed Liu Yiyi's mind, her gaze towards Lin Fengmian changed instantly.

They desperately want the other person to become their devoted follower immediately!

"Brother Fengmian," Liu Yiyi said, a smile that she considered to be her most tender and moving.

She took half a step forward, her voice softening slightly.

"Long time no see, do you still remember Yiyi?"

Lin Fengmian put his things away, then looked up at her, a half-smile playing on his lips, and said casually:

"I don't recognize you."

Liu Yiyi's smile froze.

"Lin Fengmian! How dare you talk to me like that!"

Lin Fengchen immediately exploded, feeling even angrier than if his beloved had been humiliated himself.

"Yiyi was being kind and greeted you, and this is how you reacted!"

Liu Yiyi cursed Lin Fengchen as an idiot in her heart, but quickly composed herself, her eyes slightly reddening, making her appear even more pitiful.

"Brother Fengmian, I know... I know you're still angry with me. But Yiyi had no choice; the pressure from the family was too great... Are you... are you still jealous?"

Lin Fengmian was speechless.

Who's angry? Who's jealous?

He already had a stunning beauty like Nangong Li by his side, cold and alluring.

Secretly, there was a pure yet stubborn saintess like Chu Qingyi who couldn't forget her.

Which one isn't a hundred times better than this pretentious Liu Yiyi in front of you?

This fairy has a really high opinion of herself.

"I didn't." Lin Fengmian, too lazy to argue, turned to leave, "Excuse me."

Liu Yiyi has always been extremely confident in her looks and methods.

In her view, as long as she showed the slightest weakness, just by beckoning with her finger,

Which man wouldn't willingly be her dog? Wouldn't he want to offer her the very best of everything?

Wasn't Lin Fengmian like that in the past?

She sneered inwardly:

Ha, still pretending? You're clearly already head over heels for me.

You're just too proud to back down, so you want me to give you a way out and take the initiative to keep you, right?

Okay, I'll give you a way out.

Liu Yiyi shifted her feet, seemingly unintentionally, but she happened to block the doorway, a complex expression of anticipation on her face.

His gaze was fixed intently on the storage pouch at Lin Fengmian's waist.

What was just taken in there was a magical flying sword!

I came here with Lin Fengchen today because I wanted him to spend some money on me.

Now there's another sucker out of the water!

"Alright, Brother Fengmian, don't be angry anymore."

Her voice softened further, carrying a hint of coquetry.

"Wow, that flying sword was so beautiful! It was so shiny and golden. It must be really powerful!"

"Can...can I give this to Yiyi? Yiyi is currently lacking a suitable weapon..."

She blinked, her face innocent and guileless, as if it were just a casual remark, but in her heart she was certain:

Now that I've given you a way out, shouldn't you obediently hand over the magical artifact?

Lin Fengmian stopped and turned to look at her.

There was not a trace of warmth in his eyes, only undisguised sarcasm.

"Get out." He uttered the first word, clear and cold.

Liu Yiyi was stunned for a moment, thinking she had misheard.

"What?"

"You dare to challenge me?" Lin Fengmian said.

"Ugly as she is, she has quite the imagination."

"You...!" Liu Yiyi was completely stunned.

He...he rejected me? And even called me ugly?

Is this still the same Lin Fengmian who used to obey him and fawn over him? How dare he?!

But long-standing habits made her subconsciously switch back to her pitiful mode.

Her eyes welled up with tears, and she looked at Lin Fengchen with a tearful expression:

"Waaah... How could you say that to me, Brother Fengmian... I don't want it anymore, okay...?"

While "crying and pleading," she frantically gestured to Lin Fengchen with her eyes:

You idiot! What are you standing there for?! Can't you see I'm being bullied?! Go get me!

Seeing his beloved in tears, Lin Fengchen was instantly enraged, feeling that the moment to be a hero and save the beauty had arrived!

"Lin Fengmian! You piece of trash, are you asking for a beating?!"

Lin Fengchen stepped forward, blocking Liu Yiyi's path, and pointed at Lin Fengmian's nose, cursing.

"Yiyi wanting it is giving you face! Hand it over now! Otherwise, I'll beat you up myself and then take it from you, it'll be the same!"
