Tan Wenbin: "There are many ways to bully someone, and those without normal abilities can be even more twisted."
Zhao Yi: "You really understand, Mr. Tan."
Chen Lin took a deep breath, stepped forward voluntarily, bowed slightly, and said in a trembling voice:
"I've seen you, Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Yi: "Your surname is Chen?"
Chen Lin nodded, not daring to meet Zhao Yi's eyes.
Zhao Yi: "Oh, I remember now. Back when I was looking for a way to solve the problem of the Life and Death Door on my forehead, Mr. Tian carried me to many places to seek solutions, probably to find an Onmyoji."
Back when Li Zhiyuan and others first encountered Zhao Yi, it was because Jiujiang Zhao heard that a branch family had come up with a new way to use spells that could avoid the backlash of cause and effect. Zhao Yi went to check it out and found that it was just a lousy method of transfer, and also sensed the crisis of Shizhuo Zhao, so he left directly.
It was mainly visiting a branch family like Shizhuo Zhao, without worrying about the branch family being a threat to them, so that day only Mr. Tian accompanied him. When visiting other families to "seek guidance," there would be a much bigger show.
After all, in the eyes of the legitimate Dragon King family, Jiujiang Zhao was nothing, even somewhat laughable like a nouveau riche, but in the scope of the Jianghu, Jiujiang Zhao was a giant.
Chen Lin met Zhao Yi that day when he directly asked for the cultivation technique to view, imposing a domineering presence. Her father and other elders did not dare to resist in front of this sickly young man.
After this young man looked over the cultivation technique, he shook his head, sighed, and showed obvious disappointment.
When he left, all the elders in the family saw him off, and they all breathed a sigh of relief once he was out of sight.
Chen Lin remembered her brother clenching his fists at that time, not showing anger at being humiliated and ignored, but rather a deep longing:
"Sister, this is the Dragon King family."
It can be said that her brother's determination to travel the Jianghu and light the lamp was planted by Mr. Zhao.
Now, Chen Lin never thought she could meet this Mr. Zhao again here.
Mr. Zhao was no longer sickly looking, like the mysterious Life and Death Door problem had been cured, and he had no guards or followers with him, just alone.
Moreover, he was carrying bags full of gifts in his hands.
Even though Chen Lin had imagined this place to be extremely unreal, reality told her that her imagination was still too inadequate.
"Linlin, where's the paint? Huh, all spilled?"
Yin Meng rolled up her sleeves, holding a brush as she came out.
Zhao Yi: "Meng Meng, busy are you."
"Mr. Zhao, you're here." As she spoke, Yin Meng's gaze fell on the bags Zhao Yi was carrying and very directly asked, "Is there anything for me?"
Zhao Yi: "Yes, there is. I wouldn't forget about you."
Originally, Yin Meng was supposed to be the most inconspicuous in Li's team, but it was this inconspicuous one who cooperated with Tan Wenbin to dig the biggest pit for him.
He knew it was a pit when he jumped in, but he really didn't expect it to be so deep.
So Zhao Yi felt that in Li's team, only Lin Shuyou was a good person.
Yin Meng noticed Chen Lin's fear and asked in puzzlement: "You know him too?"
Chen Lin nodded: "It's Mr. Zhao."
Yin Meng smiled as if she wasn't smiling: "Did you bully her?"
"It was just a brief encounter." Then, Zhao Yi frowned slightly, "Has someone taken a liking to her?"
Zhao Yi first looked at Tan Wenbin; he had a childhood sweetheart, so it couldn't be him. If it were Run Sheng, Yin Meng wouldn't have that expression.
It couldn't be Li; not to mention how young he was, even if the old lady were more enlightened and valued him more, it wouldn't be possible for him to take a maid now, right?
One by one, eliminating all possibilities, only one answer remained.
Zhao Yi immediately showed a kind smile and said to Chen Lin: "Oh, it's my sister-in-law?"
Chen Lin was startled by this sudden change in tone, her body trembling slightly.
Tan Wenbin: "How do you know so much about our internal investigation?"
Zhao Yi: "Don't you remember? Besides reading expressions, I can also see into hearts."
Actually, all these little secrets were told to him by Lin Shuyou.
Back then, in Lijiang, he was always either being carried by Lin Shuyou or squeezed into one sleeping bag with him.
The journey was too boring, so he wanted to hear some gossip, especially about emotions.
Lin Shuyou was principled and wouldn't talk about people's emotional affairs, but couldn't resist the threat of "You don't want that thing to be known, do you?"
Yin Meng hugged Chen Lin's shoulder, shook it a bit, and comforted her: "Don't worry, he won't bite you here."
Zhao Yi: "Hah."
During the few days Chen Lin was here, she didn't manage to win over Lin Shuyou, but she did win over Yin Meng.
Who wouldn't want a obedient, supportive mate beside them, not only helping you out but also constantly adding emotional value...even making delicious Sichuan dishes.
Liu Yumei noticed this long ago and mused that the Yin family indeed declined, for them to produce such a dull girl, who wouldn't even know how she was played to death if thrown into a big house.
With a little effort, they can handle you comfortably.
Even Run Sheng's tastes were heavy; the girl favored Lin Shuyou, or else Yin Meng would have been coopted and still help prepare a dowry for the other person.
Run Sheng and Lin Shuyou happened to come back delivering goods, with each pulling a cart, encountering the Liang Sisters and Mr. Tian outside.
"Did you bring the seeds?" Run Sheng asked Mr. Tian.
Mr. Tian laughed: "Brought many, and I'll need your help planting them, as you can see, I'm rather inconvenienced now."
