Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 45
[Chapter 45 Underestimated Him]
Zhao Lingyin walked out of the gate of the Imperial Hospital with a cold face. Lin Xiu followed her closely and explained, “I was really learning to feel the pulse from Miss Shuangshuang just now…”
Zhao Lingyin stopped, looked back at him and said, “Swear.” Lin Xiu
pointed four fingers of his right hand to the sky and said solemnly, “I swear to heaven, I was really learning to feel the pulse from Miss Shuangshuang just now. If I tell a lie, let me, let me…”
Lin Xiu looked at Zhao Lingyin, and Zhao Lingyin also looked at him and said, “Go on…”
Lin Xiu moved his lips, but said nothing.
This is not right!
According to the conventional routine, Lingyin should not cover his mouth and say something like “Okay, okay, I believe you” before he said “Let me be struck by thunder and lightning”…
Why didn’t she play by the rules?
Is there really no trust between them?
Seeing him fall silent, Zhao Lingyin said, “What’s wrong? Don’t you know how to swear? Do you want me to teach you? Follow me and say, ‘If you tell a lie, I will be struck by five thunders and die a miserable death…'”
How could Lin Xiu swear like this?
As a time traveler, his materialistic thoughts and scientific view of history have long been shattered by the meteorite. What if after making a false oath, God really makes him hit by five thunders, who can he go to for justice?
He is not Li Baizhang, and he does not have the ability to resist thunder.
But he can’t tell Lingyin that he is just for the ability of Shuangshuang, which is tantamount to exposing his biggest secret.
Looking into Zhao Lingyin’s eyes, Lin Xiu could only lower his head and said slowly, “Okay, I admit that I just want to touch a girl’s hand. I have no shame…”
Lin Xiu felt that he should be sincere. Besides, he was not a good man. What he pursued was galloping on a horse and a whole fish pond, not a horse or a fish…
Lingyin must change her perception of him.
Zhao Lingyin was speechless when she met such an honest Lin Xiu.
Soon, she was furious and asked, “Didn’t you promise me that you wouldn’t have any intimate relationship with other women before the engagement was cancelled? You didn’t keep your word!”
Lin Xiu explained, “But that was just holding hands. No, it wasn’t even holding hands. You saw it. Whether it was Miss Caiyi or Miss Shuangshuang, I just put my fingers on their wrists. Does that count as an intimate relationship?”
Zhao Lingyin recalled and found that what Lin Xiu said seemed to be right. If that counted as an intimate relationship, wouldn’t every doctor be a lecher?
This was not a solution. Lin Xiu asked, “When will your sister come back?”
He was waiting for Zhao Lingjun to come back and cancel the engagement with him.
Zhao Lingyin said unhappily, “I don’t know.” Lin Xiu
complained in his heart, why is a girl running around outside all day, isn’t this a waste of time for others, it makes him feel like he is cheating when taking a girl’s pulse, and he has to be careful about being discovered by his future sister-in-law. When will this kind of life end…
At this time, Zhao Lingyin suddenly said, “Lin Xiu.”
She usually didn’t call Lin Xiu’s name, this abnormal behavior made Lin Xiu feel a little unsure. He moved away from Zhao Lingyin and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and asked, “Do you have someone you like?”
Lin Xiu was surprised and said, “Why do you say that?”
Zhao Lingyin said, “From the time you were a child, until you were eighteen years old, you would mention your engagement with your sister to everyone you met. Why do you suddenly regret it now? Do you have someone you like?”
Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment, and said unsurely, “I mention it to everyone I meet, do I?”
Zhao Lingyin nodded.
Lin Xiu thought that it was the fault of his ex and had nothing to do with him, so he had to explain: “I was young and frivolous at that time, don’t take it to heart…”
Zhao Lingyin continued to ask: “Then why do you want to break up this engagement? You know, no matter which woman you want to marry, she is not as good as your sister…”
Lin Xiu originally wanted to say that he didn’t need to get married. With his appearance and his body, as long as he wanted, there would be countless women throwing themselves at him. He could change one a day, one a month, why should he hang himself on a tree?
Not surprisingly, when he said this, he would be beaten.
So Lin Xiu decisively kept this sentence in his heart.
At this time, he suddenly had an idea. If he had a favorite woman, wouldn’t he have a legitimate reason to break off the engagement?
Lin Xiu’s expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Zhao Lingyin, sighed lightly, and said: “I didn’t expect you to see it…”
Zhao Lingyin was stunned for a moment, and then asked: “Really, who is it, is it the actor in Lihuayuan?”
Lingyin was really considerate and even prepared the candidate for him. Lin Xiu agreed with her and said: “Yes.”
Zhao Lingyin frowned and asked, “Do you think she can compare to my sister?”
Lin Xiu shook her head and said, “You don’t understand love. When you really like someone, she is the only one in your eyes. Not to mention your sister, even the fairies in the sky pale in comparison to her.”
“Then why did you touch that female doctor’s hand?”
“…”
“I also heard that you were very close to Xue Ning’er in the Yishu Academy, and you were jealous of others for her and even fought with them…”
“…”
Lin Xiu thought for a moment and asked tentatively, “Can I say that I like all three of them?”
Zhao Lingyin suddenly smiled and asked, “You don’t mean to say that you like all beautiful women, do you?”
Lin Xiu said embarrassedly, “Well, everyone has a love of beauty. I just want to give all beautiful girls a warm home. Is there anything wrong with that…”
Zhao Lingyin snorted coldly and said, “I was almost fooled by you. How could someone like you not like my sister? You don’t want to indulge yourself before getting married, do you?”
Lin Xiu hurriedly said, “I didn’t, I really didn’t!”
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and said coldly, “I won’t believe you anymore. If I see you flirting with other girls next time, I will definitely not be polite!”
In life, many things are beyond your control.
I once dreamed of traveling the world with a sword, but I got married too early and had a baby. I
once dreamed of galloping on a horse and seeing all the flowers, but there was a disobedient sister-in-law.
Lingyin didn’t believe him, and Lin Xiu had no way out because he couldn’t beat her.
However, she regarded Lin Xiu as her future brother-in-law, which had at least one benefit, that is, she would always provide him with assistance in his cultivation. Lin Xiu’s current cultivation depended entirely on her. If this relationship was really gone, she would probably no longer care about him.
At most, he would be more careful when copying the woman’s ability in the future, so as not to be discovered by her.
After returning home, Lin Xiu closed the door and took out a silver ingot from his purse.
He put the silver in the palm of his hand, and the next moment, the silver in his hand disappeared out of thin air.
Lin Xiu’s mind moved, and the silver ingot appeared in his hand again.
This was the spatial ability he had just obtained. It was
also the last ability that Lin Xiu obtained before his second awakening.
The silver did not disappear out of thin air, but was transferred to a portable space by him. The space was not large, only about one meter square, and it did not have much use, but it was more than enough to store some personal belongings.
Regarding the spatial ability, Lin Xiu had already learned about it before.
Each time you awaken, the volume of the space will increase a lot. After three awakenings, the space that can be used is very large. It can be used to transport food, carry some heavy objects, etc. In short, as long as you can touch it with your hands and the space can accommodate it, you can transfer it to the portable space, provided that it is a dead object…
Living things can also be transferred, but that is after the ability awakens three times, and there is no guarantee whether it is still alive when it comes out.
As for what mutations this ability will have after the fourth awakening, no one knows for the time being, because the space ability cannot be cultivated, and awakening depends entirely on luck. The predecessors have awakened three times at most.
Just as Lin Xiu was getting familiar with his new ability, a figure held his forehead and staggered out of the palace.
Wang Wei still couldn’t figure out why he lost to Lin Xiu. Was it really because he was unlucky and chose a weak wooden sword?
Looking up, Wang Wei saw a carriage parked not far ahead. His face changed, and he hurried over, stood in front of the carriage, and said respectfully: “Young Master…”
A voice came from the carriage: “How is it?”
Wang Wei said in annoyance: “I had a chance to destroy him, but I was unlucky…”
The voice paused for a moment before slowly speaking: “Once it was bad luck, twice it was bad luck, it can’t be bad luck every time, it seems that I underestimated him…”
