Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 84
[Chapter 84: Seeing Injustice]
After the martial arts class, Lin Xiu walked out of the training ground with a puzzled look on his face.
What happened to Xue Ning’er?
She was still hungry and thirsty in the last class, but this time she didn’t take the initiative to talk to him, and left alone after class, without giving Lin Xiu any chance to get close.
Is this a method of playing hard to get, or a technique of being hot and cold?
Lin Xiu is certainly not unfamiliar with this trick. Some self-righteous girls often act hot and cold to the boys who pursue them, making them happy for a while and disappointed for a while, so as to firmly control them in their hands. This is also a disguised PUA.
But using this method on Lin Xiu is a bit like playing big knife in front of Guan Gong.
Xue Ning’er made a mistake. She has a need for Lin Xiu. She needs Lin Xiu to like her, so that she can anger Zhao Lingjun. On the surface, in the relationship between the two, Xue Ning’er is the one who holds the initiative, but in fact, Lin Xiu is the active party.
The way to deal with hot and cold is to cool with cold and heat with heat.
As long as Lin Xiu also avoided her, the one who was anxious in the end was Xue Ning’er.
However, Lin Xiu did not expect that he would see Xue Ning’er again soon.
Right at the gate of the palace.
Xue Ning’er was blocked there by a group of people, or to be exact, a group of women.
The leader was a fat woman, her waist was as thick as two Xue Ning’ers, her appearance was also ordinary, but her clothes were luxurious and extraordinary, the jewelry on her head and neck were not ordinary things, and the nobleness on her body was not something that ordinary women could have. Xue
Ning’er was surrounded by a group of people, looking at the woman angrily, and said angrily: “Song Yuzhi, what do you want to do!”
As soon as Xue Ning’er opened her mouth, Lin Xiu guessed the identity of the woman.
There are not many people with the surname Song who have such nobleness and dare to trouble Xue Ning’er. This woman can only come from the Ningguo Mansion.
Although the Xue family is also a duke’s mansion, it is still slightly inferior to the Song family. After all, one is a third-class duke and the other is a second-class duke. The noble rank of Daxia not only represents the title, but also the strength.
The woman named Song Yuzhi was obviously not afraid of Xue Ning’er’s identity. She pointed at her nose and cursed: “Xue Ning’er, you little bitch, it’s not enough to have so many men around you, you actually come to steal my man!”
Xue Ning’er was stunned for a moment, then became more angry and asked: “Song Yuzhi, what are you talking about, when did I steal your man!”
Song Yuzhi gritted his teeth and said: “Little bitch, you still don’t admit it, Zheng Wei was originally by my side, how could he suddenly be around you, it must be you who seduced him!”
Xue Ning’er said angrily: “What nonsense are you talking about, Zheng Wei and I are not familiar with each other at all!”
After a few brief conversations between the two, Lin Xiu figured out the whole story. It turned
out that it was a powerful young man in the royal capital who had been pursuing Song Yuzhi before, but recently gave up for some reason and turned to Xue Ning’er, so the young lady of the Song family brought people to the palace gate to bet on Xue Ning’er, which led to this tearing battle in front of them.
The most common and brutal fights between women are usually caused by men. From common women to noble ladies, and even concubines in the harem, they are all vulnerable. The higher their status, the more brutal and vicious their methods are. The fights in the harem are the most brutal.
In short, the man who liked her before is now following Xue Ning’er around. The young lady of the Song family is very angry, even a little furious, and she is willing to fight in front of the palace gate. It can be seen that she cares a lot about the man’s “betrayal”.
In Lin Xiu’s opinion, this is too normal…
Although it is said that you can’t judge a person by his appearance, not all men have the same awareness as Lin Xiu. If
a normal man chooses between Song Yuzhi and Xue Ning’er, as long as he is not blind, he will choose the latter without hesitation. It should be that the man suddenly wakes up and is unwilling to go against his soul to climb the high branch of the Ningguo Mansion, and instead bows down at Xue Ning’er’s skirt, rather than Xue Ning’er actively seducing him.
Lin Xiu believes Xue Ning’er because Xue Ning’er has been persevering in seducing another person during this period.
That is him.
But Song Yuzhi obviously didn’t believe it. From childhood to adulthood, no man had pursued her. Now she finally found one, and she liked him, but he was seduced by Xue Ning’er, which made her extremely angry.
Why? Why are there so many people pursuing Xue Ning’er, who is also the legitimate daughter of the Duke, but no one has ever been interested in her? She finally got one, but he was taken away. This bitch is too much!
She gritted her teeth and said, “Catch her for me!”
As soon as Song Yuzhi finished speaking, the two women beside her pressed Xue Ning’er’s shoulders. Although Xue Ning’er could fly, she couldn’t get away at the moment.
She was already a little flustered at the moment, and could only force herself to be calm and say: “Song Yuzhi, if you dare to do anything to me, the Xue family will not let you go!”
Song Yuzhi snorted coldly and said: “Little bitch, don’t use your Xue family to scare me. Others are afraid of your Xue family, but I am not. Today I will let everyone see the fate of snatching other people’s men!”
Xue Ning’er looked around for help, but whether it was her former good sisters or the suitors around her, they all lowered their heads and looked at the ground, and no one dared to step forward.
The Xue family is indeed powerful, but the Song family is even more difficult to mess with. It is one of the top three powerful families in Daxia. Even the Xue family cannot compete with them. If they offend Miss Song, they will never have a good life in the future.
Not only them, but even the guards at the gate of the palace pretended not to see anything. Obviously, they didn’t want to, and didn’t dare to participate in this matter.
Xue Ning’er was controlled by someone, and Song Yuzhi showed a happy expression on her face. She raised her fat palm and was about to slap Xue Ning’er in the face.
In front of so many people, if this slap was given, Xue Ning’er’s dignity would also be taken away…
Xue Ning’er had already felt the wind in her ears, and tears of humiliation slid down her pretty face. She closed her eyes, with only despair and humiliation in her heart.
But Song Yuzhi’s slap did not fall.
When her wrist was about to fall, it was held by someone.
Lin Xiu stopped Song Yuzhi’s slap, turned to look at the two women, and shouted: “Let go of Miss Ning’er!”
Xue Ning’er suddenly opened her eyes. In front of her was a slightly thin back figure that gave her an extremely safe feeling.
It was Lin Xiu!
She struggled hard to break free from the control of the two women. The two women had been firmly controlling Xue Ning’er, but for some reason, her eyes suddenly blurred, her mind was blank for a moment, and her hands naturally loosened their strength.
Xue Ning’er seized the opportunity, immediately broke free from them, ran to Lin Xiu’s side, and tightly grasped his arm.
After the two women came to their senses, they wanted to attack again, but suddenly they felt cold under their feet. They didn’t know when a layer of ice appeared on the ground, freezing them in place, unable to move.
At this time, Lin Xiu also slowly released Song Yuzhi’s wrist.
Song Yuzhi looked at Lin Xiu expressionlessly and asked, “Who are you?”
Lin Xiu said, “I am just an ordinary person who sees injustice on the road. I am a nobody, not worth Miss Song’s mention…”
Song Yuzhi couldn’t help but sneer, “A nobody, are you worthy of being a hero to save the beauty?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a large group of women behind her surrounded Lin Xiu and Xue Ning’er.
They moved quickly, but someone was faster than them. Before Song Yuzhi finished speaking, Xue Ning’er and Lin Xiu’s bodies had floated into the sky and flew away.
Song Yuzhi looked at the two figures going away in the sky, snorted coldly, and said: “You can hide on the first day, but you can’t hide on the fifteenth. Check for me, what is the origin of this pretty boy…”
Behind the crowd, the old beggar and the peddler breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Xiu actually had a conflict with the daughter of the Ningguo family. Fortunately, the girl from the Xue family brought him out of trouble, otherwise, they really didn’t know how to deal with it…
Of course, they couldn’t watch Lin Xiu get into trouble, but the Song family was not easy to mess with…
At this time, Song Yuzhi looked at the two women, frowned and said: “I told you a long time ago that Xue Ning’er can fly, let you catch her Don’t let her run away. How did you catch her? “
The two women looked at each other, and one of them said with a stiff face: “I’m sorry, Miss, I, I don’t know what happened just now, I was suddenly in a trance, and I didn’t have any strength in my hands…”
The other one also said quickly: “Me too…”
At this time, a figure quietly left the crowd. Qin Wan glanced at the direction where Lin Xiu and Xue Ning’er disappeared, and said lightly: “This is considered to be paying you back the interest…”
High in the sky, Lin Xiu looked down, and the streets of the royal capital were only crisscrossed lines in his eyes, and the figures on the street became the size of ants.
Lin Xiu, who had been afraid of heights since childhood, held Xue Ning’er’s hand tightly and said in a trembling voice: “Miss Ning’er, please don’t let go…”
A moment later.
A farmland outside the city.
The clear stream flows slowly from west to east. The water surface here is flat, the water plants are lush, and the fish are playing happily in the water. Suddenly, a stone fell into the water, splashing a flower, setting off layers of ripples, and the fish were frightened and scattered, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Plop!
Xue Ning’er threw another small stone into the water and said angrily: “You said you were willing to go through fire and water for me, but no one stood up just now…”
She was talking about the suitors around her.
When they were around her on weekdays, they only said nice things, but when she really needed them, they all became turtles with their heads shrunk.
Lin Xiu was still a little pale after being carried away by Xue Ning’er for a long time. After recovering from his shock, he said: “Actually, you can’t blame them. The Song family is not worth offending. How could they offend the second-class mansion for you…”
Xue Ning’er looked at Lin Xiu and retorted: “But why did you…”
A friend in need is a friend indeed, and a person’s heart is revealed over time.
She just realized that those who surrounded her every day and said they were willing to go through fire and water for her, when it came to the critical moment, none of them could be trusted.
Lin Xiu had never said those exaggerated words to her, but when she was in danger, he was the only one who stood up without hesitation.
Lin Xiu smiled and said, “I said, you are my friend. If I stand by and watch my friend in trouble, what kind of friend am I?”
Xue Ning’er asked, “Aren’t you afraid of the Song family?”
“Yes.”
Lin Xiu looked into her eyes and said, “But I don’t want to see you being bullied by that fat woman.”
At this moment, Lin Xiu’s serious look made Xue Ning’er a little absent-minded, and then she immediately turned her head and continued to throw stones into the water, but her pretty face was quietly covered with a layer of blush.
Regarding today’s matter, Lin Xiu had to admit that although Xue Ning’er was a bit of a green tea, but speaking of the matter, Song Yuzhi’s trouble with her today was completely out of inferiority and jealousy.
She was jealous of Xue Ning’er’s beauty and figure, and jealous that Xue Ning’er was always surrounded by countless suitors, and jealousy is the emotion that is most likely to make people, especially women, lose their rationality. The
most important reason why Lin Xiu would stand up without hesitation was, of course, Xue Ning’er’s ability.
In addition, the Song family is powerful, and others are afraid, but he is not afraid.
Whenever Lin Xiu realized that even if he did nothing, there were countless big families and big forces in the royal capital who wanted to kill him, he was not afraid of anything.
As the saying goes, too many lice don’t itch, too many debts don’t worry, he already has so many enemies, one more or one less, does it make a difference?
Besides, in this world, there is someone who doesn’t want him to get into trouble more than Lin Xiu himself.
This person is His Majesty the Emperor.
The last incident finally made Lin Xiu figure it out.
Although the Lin family is only a second-class earl, in the royal capital, no matter what kind of marquis, granddaughter of the duke, he doesn’t have to be afraid of anyone.
As long as he doesn’t commit any unforgivable crimes, His Majesty the Emperor will not let him get into trouble. Once he gets into trouble, who will Zhao Lingjun marry?
The top dignitaries in the royal capital have gained their power and status today by strength. If they marry Zhao Lingjun, they will be able to rebel against the Li family and change the surname of the Daxia royal family in a few years. His Majesty the Emperor probably dreams of Lin Xiu’s life in peace and health.
What is Song Yuzhi? The murderer of the previous two assassinations has not been found by the Secret Investigation Department. If she dares to attack him, she will be throwing a pillow to the sleepy emperor.
The last time Yang Xuan happened, he seized the opportunity to clean up the power of Yongping Marquis Mansion. If the Song family dares to take action, wouldn’t he have a reason again?
Xue Ning’er threw a few stones, turned around and saw Lin Xiu in a daze. A stone fell into the water at his feet and asked, “Hey, what are you thinking about?”
Lin Xiu turned around, raised his head and said, “I’m thinking, will that fat woman retaliate against me? Otherwise, I’ll go back and apologize to her. The Song family is a second-class duke, and my family is a second-class earl. A sneeze from the Song family is enough to kill me a hundred times. If I had known, I would have stayed away from her…”
Xue Ning’er twisted his waist angrily and said, “Why are you like this…”
Lin Xiu smiled and said, “Just kidding, let alone she is the daughter of a duke, even if she is a princess, I will stand up to protect her. “I want to protect you…”
Xue Ning’er suddenly fell silent and asked in a low voice: “You, why are you so good to me?”
Lin Xiu said as a matter of course: “Because we are friends…”
Xue Ning’er showed guilt on her face and whispered: “I, I don’t deserve you to be so good to me…”
Lin Xiu said: “Between friends, there is no such thing as worth it.”
Xue Ning’er suddenly looked up at Lin Xiu and said seriously: “Lin Xiu, you are too naive, too simple, and too easy to believe in others. You are very easy to be deceived, do you know?”
Lin Xiu did not expect that one day, there would be a girl who would use words like “naive” and “simple” to describe him.
Silly girl, you are naive and simple…
Xue Ning’er looked into Lin Xiu’s eyes and said earnestly, “You must remember, never trust others easily, especially women, beautiful women. The more beautiful the woman, the less you can trust her. Some women are very scheming. They look like little white rabbits, but you can’t imagine how bad they are behind the scenes…” It
was not until Lin Xiu promised Xue Ning’er by the stream that he would never trust women easily in the future that Xue Ning’er nodded with satisfaction and said, “It’s getting late, let’s go back.”
Lin Xiu took the initiative to extend his hand. Xue Ning’er glanced at him and asked, “What for?”
Lin Xiu was stunned and said, “Aren’t we going back?”
Xue Ning’er rolled her eyes at him and said, “Song Yuzhi is not here, we can just walk back.”
Lin Xiu withdrew his hand and said distressedly, “Ah, it’s so far, we have to walk back…”
“Puff…” Xue Ning’er couldn’t help laughing, then she took the initiative to extend her delicate hand to Lin Xiu and said, “Give me your hand.”
Lin Xiu naturally held Xue Ning’er’s hand and reminded her, “Miss Ning’er, when you go back, remember to fly slowly…”
When they came out, because Xue Ning’er flew too fast, Lin Xiu didn’t have enough time to acquire her ability, so she told her to fly slowly… At this time
.
Song Mansion.
In a unique courtyard, Song Yuzhi was pestering an elegant young man, saying in a delicate voice, “Brother, I was bullied, you must help me vent my anger…”
The young man touched her head and smiled, “You have always been the only one who bullied others. Who is so bold as to bully our little princess of the Song family?”
Song Yuzhi twisted his fat body and said, “I have found out that the man is Lin Xiu, the son of a small second-class earl. Brother, you can kill him as easily as killing an ant…”
“Lin Xiu?” Hearing this name, the young man frowned and said, “Are you talking about the son of the Earl of Ping’an?”
Song Yuzhi said, “That’s him. He hurt my wrist today. I want my elder brother to cripple one of his hands, no, both…” The
young man shook his head and said, “Yuzhi, if it was anyone else, my elder brother could vent your anger for you, but I won’t help you with this Lin Xiu, and you are not allowed to cause trouble for him in private.”
“Why?” Song Yuzhi raised his head and said puzzledly, “He is obviously just the son of a small second-class baron, why can’t he be touched?”
The young man breathed a sigh of relief and said, “There are some things you don’t understand, and you don’t need to understand. You just need to know not to cause trouble for that Lin Xiu, otherwise once something happens, even your family may not be able to protect you…”
Not long after, Song Yuzhi came out of the small courtyard, feeling extremely depressed.
She couldn’t understand why her elder brother didn’t let her provoke him, just a small second-class baron’s son.
But Song Yuzhi also knew that her elder brother could represent the Song family, and she had to listen to his words. It seemed that the one named Lin Xiu should have some background–Speaking of Lin Xiu, Song Yuzhi became even more angry.
That pretty boy is much more handsome than Zheng Wei. Why doesn’t she have such a man around her? Why do all the good-looking men revolve around Xue Ning’er?
Just because she is pretty?
A bunch of superficial dogs!
Song Yuzhi’s face showed jealousy and hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said, “Xue Ning’er, this matter is not over yet!”
