Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 4
[Chapter 4: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road]
. It was a dreamless night.
The next morning, Lin Xiu stood in the yard to wash up, and saw a handsome face in the reflection of the copper basin.
The Lin Xiu in this world looked exactly like him, even the position of a small mole on his private parts was exactly the same. Lin Xiu almost thought that this was his body.
But no matter how similar it was, this body was still a little different from his original body.
In his previous life, Lin Xiu had experienced many battles at a young age, which made his physique a little weak. This body was a few years younger and was still a novice, as if it had endless energy.
Although he inexplicably traveled to a strange world, Lin Xiu was not sad at all, and even a little happy.
After all, there were not many things in that world that he could miss.
The meteor opened the door to a new world for Lin Xiu.
At this moment, he already possessed two strange skills, or abilities.
One was Sun Dali’s power, and the other was Zhao Lingyin’s ice.
Flowers may not bloom if you try hard, but willows may grow into shade trees if you plant them accidentally. Zhao Lingyin carried him back from the brothel yesterday, so their bodies were naturally in close contact. Lin Xiu acquired her abilities silently while in a coma.
Of course, it is always good to have more skills when traveling in the world, and learning one more language will never be a disadvantage, and it may be of great use at a critical moment.
Therefore, Lin Xiu plans to go to Pinfang Pavilion again to talk to Miss Haitang about life.
Firstly, he doesn’t like to give up halfway. He was just a little bit away from success yesterday, and he felt bad about giving up like this.
Secondly, he touched the girl for so long yesterday, but he didn’t even pay her. It would be bad for his reputation if it got out.
Not long after, Lin Xiu appeared in the brothel again.
Haitang saw him and asked hurriedly, “Sir, are you okay? That woman yesterday…”
Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, let’s continue. I forgot to pay yesterday.”
At the tea table, Lin Xiu stood up and shook Haitang’s hand again. After a chat, Haitang looked up at him and said, “Sir, I thought about it all night yesterday and felt that you were right. I shouldn’t keep thinking about the past. I should consider my future…”
Lin Xiu smiled and asked, “What are your plans?”
Haitang’s eyes shone with light and said, “I don’t want to do this business all the time. I want to save money to redeem myself. I will do some small business in the future according to your advice.” Lin
Xiu nodded and said, “That’s good. Remember to tell me when the time comes. I will often take care of your business.”
Haitang smiled and said, “Then I thank you first, sir.”
She looked at Lin Xiu with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and there was a few strands of emotion in her eyes. In
the past few years since she became a brothel girl, this was the first time she met such a customer.
Unlike those who only wanted her body, he just gently held her hand and talked to her, his movements were not frivolous, his eyes were not obscene, he would persuade her to forget the past, and plan for her future…
In the dark days of Haitang over the years, he was the only ray of light that shone into her life.
Haitang’s heart began to beat wildly. Her heart had not beaten like this for a long time. The last time was three years ago, when she was sitting by the window on the second floor and saw a very handsome man on the street riding a white horse passing by her.
Later, the man appeared in her dreams many times, making her feel emotional.
Compared with that time, Haitang’s heart beat more violently this time.
Her face flushed, she held Lin Xiu’s hand tightly, unconsciously clamped her legs together, looked into his eyes, and said emotionally: “Young Master…”
At this time, Lin Xiu suddenly stood up and apologized: “I’m sorry, I suddenly remembered that there is an important thing to do. I’ll stop here today. I look forward to seeing the day when Miss Haitang becomes the boss’s wife…”
Haitang sat there in a daze, her emotions suddenly extinguished.
“Chirp…”
Just then, the thrush in the birdcage by the window chirped twice.
To others, this was just an ordinary bird call, but to Lin Xiu, it was clearly a human voice.
“Hey, the young master is leaving, come, smile for me…”
Lin Xiu had already walked to the door, and his footsteps suddenly stopped. Then he slowly turned his head and smiled at the thrush in the cage.
“Chirp!”
The thrush in the cage seemed to be frightened by something, and it made a sharp cry. The feathers on its body suddenly exploded, and it instantly shrank into the corner of the birdcage.
…
Under the Pinfang Pavilion.
Lin Xiu walked out of the brothel, then stopped and looked back.
This should be the last time he came here. I hope that one day in the near future, the poor girl can change her fate and usher in a new life.
Then he turned around and prepared to go back home.
The moment he turned around, a white shadow appeared in Lin Xiu’s eyes.
She was standing a few steps in front of Lin Xiu, looking at him coldly.
The temperature around dropped sharply. Except for Lin Xiu, passers-by within ten meters could not help but tighten their clothes.
Lin Xiu’s eyes flashed, and his collar was grabbed by the woman in white. Looking at the other party’s icy eyes, Lin Xiu swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: “Let me explain…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Haitang’s head popped out of the second-floor window and shouted to Lin Xiu: “Sir, remember to come to me often, I, I won’t accept your money…”
Lin Xiu couldn’t explain.
The next moment, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He saw that just a few steps ahead, several figures in armor were about to walk here.
These were guards patrolling the streets. He didn’t believe that this woman dared to attack him in front of them?
Lin Xiu waved his hands at the guards fiercely, and shouted: “Help, help, someone is committing a crime in the street!”
Upon hearing this, several patrolling soldiers immediately strode towards this side.
“Who dares to commit a crime in the capital!”
The leader said angrily, and his clothes were suddenly pulled by his companions behind him. The soldier’s face turned pale and trembled, “It seems to be that…”
“Hiss!”
After the man walking in front saw it clearly, he also took a breath and took several steps back.
Then, the two looked at each other and looked up at the sky at the same time.
“Haha, the weather is not bad today.”
“Yes, yes…”
“There is nothing here, let’s go to that street.”
“Let’s go together, let’s go together…”
…
The two patrolling guards ran away, and disappeared in front of him in a few breaths. Lin Xiu was stunned.
After a moment of stunned, he understood what was going on.
Obviously, they couldn’t afford to offend the woman in white in front of them.
Lin Xiu couldn’t afford to offend her even more.
He slowly looked at the woman in white and found that her expression was even more unfriendly.
Lin Xiu gave up struggling, took a deep breath, and said, “I have only one request – not here.”
A moment later, in an empty alley near Pinfang Pavilion.
Lin Xiu twisted his hands and was pressed against the wall by the woman in white. He explained with difficulty: “This is really a misunderstanding. I didn’t do anything. If you don’t believe me, go ask them…”
The woman in white said coldly: “I didn’t do anything in the brothel. Do you think I will believe it!”
“I went to do business!”
“No one from the Zheng family or Wang family can do it!”
Lin Xiu: “…”
The woman in white pressed Lin Xiu’s hand harder and gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t think that you can marry my sister just because of that engagement. I tell you, sooner or later I will ask my family to cancel the engagement!”
Lin Xiu stood there with his face against the wall.
???
Is there such a good thing?
He was just worrying about how to cancel the engagement. Hearing this, he immediately said, “You said it. Whoever doesn’t cancel it is a dog. Do you dare to swear? Now, immediately, right now!”
“That was the engagement made by my grandfather. My grandfather has passed away, so the engagement naturally doesn’t count…” The woman in white was talking, and suddenly she was stunned: “Hey~~~”
The woman in white looked at Lin Xiu and said in disbelief, “What did you say?”
While she was talking, she had already let go of Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu struck while the iron was hot and said, “I have wanted to cancel that broken engagement for a long time. It’s better to do it today than to wait for a day. How about going to your house now? You ask or I ask later?”
Before he finished speaking, he was twisted against the wall again. The woman in white looked unhappy and asked, “What do you mean?”
Lin Xiu was stunned.
Even a clay man can get angry. He broke free with a little effort and turned around and cursed, “This is not okay, that is not okay, are you sick?”
This time, the woman in white did not get angry.
She looked Lin Xiu up and down with a strange look, and suddenly asked, “Have you practiced martial arts?”
She discovered yesterday that Lin Xiu was surprisingly strong. When he broke free from her just now, the power he burst out was not that of a normal person.
Lin Xiu did not awaken his special skills, so the only possibility was martial arts.
Lin Xiu was furious at this time, rubbing his wrist, and said unhappily, “What’s it to you…”
The woman in white did not speak again, but suddenly punched Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu instinctively fought back and held her wrist.
However, at the same time he held the wrist of the woman in white, a chill suddenly surged from her body, and a layer of ice appeared on Lin Xiu’s hand, and quickly spread to his shoulders.
At this time, a force seemed to be activated in Lin Xiu’s body.
Frost began to emerge on the wrist of the woman in white that he held.
The woman in white broke away from Lin Xiu, and said with surprise: “You really awakened the magic!”
Lin Xiu’s face was a little gloomy. He knew that this was because he had just obtained the ice magic and had not yet fully mastered it. When attacked by the same power, the power in his body was automatically counterattacking.
Then he noticed that although the expression of the woman in white was a little shocked, she was more happy.
Lin Xiu frowned.
He was the one who awakened the magic, why was she so happy?
Psycho!
