She frowned slightly: "But I don't think this is love."

"Maybe I'm just enjoying his kindness to me. If someone else was so nice to me, the result would be the same."

"But..." She hesitated again.

If I didn't like him.

Why, when other girls stay by his side and are so intimate with him.

Would I become that irritable?

Becoming restless. Becoming nervous for no reason.

"Tell me, am I crazy?" She frowned depressedly and looked at Chen Yin.

Chen Yin couldn't help laughing.

"……Ha ha."

"why are you laughing?"

"I remembered something very interesting." His eyes became gentle, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "I have been worrying about the same thing recently."

I met a girl too.

She was very kind and gentle to me. When I was young, she taught me how to practice martial arts, read, practice swordplay and drink.

He would stand up for me when I was bullied and spank me hard when I made a mistake.

When I wake up from nightmares at night, she will gently massage my forehead.

When I was alone, full of despair and helplessness in this strange world, she picked me up.

I regard her as my most important relative and my only weakness.

"But suddenly one day, I found that she was not as powerful as I thought." Chen Yin couldn't help laughing.

"She can also be stubborn, get worried about things she can't solve, and be so stubborn that she would rather sit alone until dark than let anyone see her miserable side."

"I suddenly realized that maybe I should stay by her side."

...Just like she did to me back then.

"I've thought about what you said." He lowered his eyes silently and whispered, "If it wasn't her who picked me up at that time, would the result be different?"

"But there aren't so many ifs in the world."

Some things have been destined since the day you picked me up.

"Have you ever met anyone other than that boy who treats you so well?"

Yu Ling shook her head.

"That's it." Chen Yin gently touched her hair, "Instead of thinking so much about it."

"Why not just tell him these words and give it a try. How about that?"

Yu Ling tilted her head and thought for a while, then nodded seriously.

"I think what you said makes sense."

"So Chen Yin," she deliberately put on a serious look with her cute face.

"I like you."

"Will you marry me?"

Chen Yin thought about it and asked back: "I am only ten years old this year."

"It's okay. I can wait until you grow up."

“It may take a long time.”

"I'll wait for you for many years." Her eyes seemed to show her determination. She waved her fist firmly and said stubbornly, "I'll wait for a thousand years!"

Soft jade and warm fragrance.

She felt herself being pulled into a warm embrace.

There is a soft fragrance on the nose and wet rain on the lips.

260. Hidden Crisis

In the setting sun, two figures on the street hugged each other, as beautiful as a flower scroll.

At the corner of the street, Si Qing stared at the scene in a trance, her beautiful eyes dull and melancholy.

"...let's go."

Behind her, Hua Yulian gently pinched her shoulders and whispered, "Isn't this the scene you wanted to see?"

Si Qing lowered her head and shook the pendant on her skirt, her mind seemed to sink as well.

"Yes."

"The big sister is finally honest with herself. Yin is also with the person she likes."

But it's still very sad.

There was a pain in my heart that I couldn't scratch no matter how hard I tried.

She couldn't help but grab her collar and buried her head deeply.

"Sister Hua...I'm so sad."

"Silly girl." Hua Yulian couldn't help but hold her in her arms and stroked her hair with a look of pity.

"If I had known that it would be painful to be loved but not be loved, I would have stopped asking for it from the beginning."

"You still insisted on pursuing him out of spite. It was good that you woke up Xiao Ling'er, but you also made yourself feel like you had just been dumped. You were in great pain."

"Why do you say this?"

Si Qing bit her red lips slightly and muttered softly, "I...I'm just angry."

Angry at the big sister.

She was hesitant and could not make up her mind about something she had always dreamed of but could not get.

For some reason, whenever Si Qing thought about this, she would feel angry and sad.

But she didn't know whether she was angry with the big sister or with herself when she chose to pursue Chen Yin in anger.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Hua Yulian didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only say:

"There are plenty of fish in the sea. Don't overthink it."

"Perhaps first love is supposed to be imperfect, which makes it more memorable."

Si Qing lowered her head and remained silent.

Hua Yulian took her arm and walked back. Before leaving, her eyes inadvertently slanted in the direction of Chen Yin and Yu Ling.

There was bitterness in her eyes, but more of it was a smile of relief.

-

"……I'm hungry."

"I'm not cooking tonight."

"Why?" Yu Ling suddenly raised her head. "You've spoiled my appetite. I can't eat anything that's not cooked by you!"

"We're going to Dexianlou for a big dinner tonight."

Chen Yin smiled and pinched her earlobe: "Let me take a day off once in a while. Okay?"

"Oh……"

Yu Ling nodded obediently, but then couldn't help frowning: "Then if you're not going to cook, what are you going to do now?"

"Take care of a little matter."

Chen Yin did not say it clearly.

His sight just vaguely swept across another street intersection.

That position was the same as Si Qing and Hua Yulian on the other side.

There was a man standing on the street corner staring at them.

It didn't disappear silently until Chen Yin looked away.

-

In a dark alley on a busy street.

"You little brat, why are you taking so long to come? Where were you just now?"

"I..." In the alley, Feng Xiangling lost all his usual grace and elegance. He just tightly grasped the fan in his hand and lowered his head.

He didn't say.

He just witnessed with his own eyes the scene of his dream being shattered.

The middle-aged man opposite him, his father, asked with a serious face:

"Is what you said in the letter you sent home some time ago true?"

"true."

Feng Xiangling said to his father seriously: "Ever since I got the Heavenly Dao Dust, I have always wanted to know what abilities my system predecessor possesses."

"It was not until a few days ago that the system senior finally acknowledged me and gave me the ability to copy the manuals of martial arts. He also told me the shocking secret."

"It also warned me that as long as we are obedient, it will ensure that our family will achieve immortality when the heavenly calamity comes in the future."

The middle-aged man was overjoyed.

"So good!"

"There are only a few words about such a rare item as the Heavenly Dao Dust in the family history books. Now my son is extremely talented and blessed with good fortune, so he can be favored by such a treasure."

"This is not only an opportunity for my son, but also an opportunity for our Feng family!"

"You must seize this opportunity. The fate of our Feng family depends on you!"

Feng Xiangling just pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

Seeing his dejected look, the middle-aged man couldn't help but frown and shouted:

"You still can't forget that little devil?"

"father!"

Feng Xiangling immediately said anxiously: "She is not some little devil! The big sister...she is truly a unique and extraordinary woman in the world!"

"I have already sworn that I will never marry anyone other than her!"

"absurd!"

The middle-aged man's loud shout was like a bolt from the blue, frightening Feng Xiangling so much that he shivered.

"How can a mere woman compare with the century-old foundation of my Feng family?"

"You'd better remember your identity! Don't let women blind your mind!"

Feng Xiangling bit his lips tightly.

Seeing his resistance, the middle-aged man couldn't help but slow down his tone:

"Child, think it over. You have done your best for that little devil, but have you ever gotten even a little favor from her? Has she ever even looked at you straight in the eye?"

"Women are never satisfied. The better you treat her, the more she thinks you are cheap and despicable."

"If you can become an immortal in the future and ascend to the upper realm, then she will cry and beg you to marry into my Feng family. That would be marrying above her station."

Feng Xiangling's eyes flickered, and after a long while he lowered his head and said silently:

"Yes...I know."

"Although this little devil has a bad temper, he is also an absolute genius in cultivation."

The middle-aged man twirled his beard again and said, "The 'Wang Yan Xin Hua Lu' technique she created can be considered a peerless skill."

"Anyway, you have been favored by the system senior and have the ability to copy skills. You might as well make the best use of it and copy her skills to pass them down in the family."

Feng Xiangling just nodded obediently.
