" Since you like it, I'll give this pair of lanterns to you," Chen Yao looked at the lanterns in her hands and handed them to Lin Yixi reluctantly.
" Thank you, Miss Chen Yao," Lin Yixi said excitedly. He didn't expect to get the lantern so easily.
" Sister-in-law is such a good person. Boss, you're so lucky." Gang Hao, Feng Yu, Fei Yang, and Zhi An walked over and smiled.
" Why is it the four of you?" Looking at Gang Hao and the other three, Chen Yao frowned. The four of them were famous for being hedonistic sons of rich parents. Chen Yao knew them very well. Moreover, she hated people like them the most.
" Young master, let me remind you that these four guys aren't good people. You'd better stay away from them," Chen Yao turned to Lin Yixi and said.
" Thank you for your reminder, Miss Chen Yao. They may be rich, but they're not useless. That's why I'm dating them," Lin Yixi smiled at Chen Yao.
" Since you know they're rich kids, you're still with them. You're learning from bad things instead of good things," Chen Yao sighed as she looked at Lin Yixi.
" When I'm with them, I won't become like them because they can't change me. I, Lin Yixi, am sure of this," Lin Yixi said with a smile.
" Lin Yixi? What? You're Lin Yixi? General Lin Haoran's son, Lin Yixi?" Chen Yao stared at Lin Yixi and exclaimed.
" Yes, I am," Lin Yixi smiled like a gentleman.
" Lin Yixi, so you're that trash. Did you get close to me on purpose? Give me back the lantern," Chen Yao was furious as she snatched the lantern back from Lin Yixi.
" Miss Chen Yao, I didn't mean to get close to you, but I do want the lantern in your hand," Lin Yixi saw the 180-degree change in Chen Yao's attitude, but he wasn't angry. He just said calmly.
" Even if you didn't get close to me on purpose, I wouldn't have given the lantern to a piece of trash like you. If I were you, I would have died long ago. You useless piece of trash," Chen Yao said harshly.
" Trash? Who are you calling trash?" Lin Yixi's tone turned cold.
" Trash scolding you," Chen Yao followed Lin Yixi's words, but she realized that she had been set up by Lin Yixi. She immediately scolded,""Trash is trash. You only know how to argue.”
" If you don't even know how to argue, then you're worse than trash," Lin Yixi shook his head and said disdainfully.
" You... Hmph, I don't want to argue with trash like you. It's a waste of my energy," Chen Yao knew that she couldn't win against Lin Yixi, so she turned her head to the side.
" Trash, what is trash? Miss Chen Yao, can you enlighten me?" Lin Yixi's lips curled up, but it wasn't a smile, but a disdainful one.
" Trash is trash, you don't even know your place. You can't cultivate magic or battle energy, and you still don't admit that you're trash," Chen Yao didn't even look at Lin Yixi and just said disdainfully.
" Oh, then what can you do if you want to practice magic like Miss Chen Yao?" Lin Yixi had already felt the fluctuations of Chen Yao's magic, so he knew that she practiced magic.
" Magic is fine…but I can't explain it to trash like you." Chen Yao couldn't tell what she could do with magic.
" Since you don't know what magic can do, why are you still learning? I want to know if you're retarded," Lin Yixi said disdainfully.
" Lin Yixi, you're the brainless one. Not only are you brainless, but you're also a piece of trash. You're a piece of trash from the brainless family," Chen Yao said angrily. She was like a shrew now.
Lin Yixi wasn't angry this time, but smiled instead."You learn magic, but you don't know what you can do with it. Let me tell you what you can do with magic. For example, if you learn fire magic, you can use it to burn wood and start a fire. If you learn water magic, you can use it to clean toilets.”
"Lin Yixi, you…"
"I'm not done," Lin Yixi stopped Chen Yao and continued,""For example, your style of study magic can blow your fart far away so that no one can smell it.”
" Hahaha…" Lin Yixi's words made everyone happy, especially Gang Hao and the others. Chen Yao, on the other hand, was gritting her teeth in anger as she stared at Lin Yixi.
" It's best if you learn earth magic. Before you die, you can dig a hole and bury yourself in it. That way, you won't die without a burial place," Lin Yixi continued.
" Lin Yixi, I'm going to kill you," Chen Yao finally couldn't take it anymore and started casting her spell.
As soon as Chen Yao cast her spell, a black shadow appeared in front of Lin Yixi.
" Phew." Chen Yao's spell was instantly destroyed by An Xue. An Xue knew that Lin Yixi didn't want to show her martial arts here, so she came out to protect Lin Yixi.
" You…Who are you?" Chen Yao was terrified as she looked at the person who had destroyed her spell so easily. She knew the gap between her and An Xue.
" It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that if you don't scram, I'll kill you." An Xue's cold tone scared Chen Yao so much that she shivered.
" Lin Yixi, you better remember this," Chen Yao said to Lin Yixi before running away.
Looking at Lin Yixi and Chen Yao's unhappiness, Gang Hao and the others blamed themselves, Boss, I'm sorry. If it wasn't for us, you would have…"
Lin Yixi raised his right hand, stopping them from continuing."Don't say anymore, I'm not interested in a woman like this.”
" No way, boss. Miss Chen Yao is the 11th most beautiful woman in Tiandu. Although she's not as beautiful as the Eight Absolutes of Tiandu, she's at least three places behind them," Fei Yang said regretfully.
"Ranked 11th? I don't think so. Look over there. That woman is at least 10 times more beautiful than Chen Yao!”Lin Yixi shook his head and looked in a certain direction.
Gang Hao and the other three looked in the direction Lin Yixi said and said in unison,"Boss, that girl's name is Dongfang Yu. She's ranked eighth in Tiandu, and she's one of the Eight Unique in Tiandu.”
" The eighth of the Eight Absolutes of Tiandu," Lin Yixi pursed his lips and shrugged, expressing his helplessness and speechlessness.
" Boss, Boss, Miss Dongfang Yu seems to be walking towards us," Zhi-an suddenly shouted.
" Young Master Lin, I'm Dongfang Yu." Dongfang Yu walked up to Lin Yixi and greeted him with the etiquette of a noble lady.
" Hello, Miss Dongfang. You can call me Yixi," Lin Yixi smiled.
" Mm, don't call me Miss Dongfang. Just call me Dongfang Yu," Dongfang Yu said generously.
"No, you've already called me by my name. It's not fair for me to call you by your surname. I'll just call you Yu 'Er.”Lin Yixi said shamelessly.
Strangely, Dongfang Yu didn't object to Lin Yixi's intimate address. She said directly,"Yixi, weren't you looking for Miss Chen Yao's lantern paper? A few days ago, I also bought a lantern made from the same lantern paper.”
"Really? "That's great, Yu 'Er, can you sell it to me?" Lin Yixi said excitedly.
" I don't need it anymore. I really admire your literary talent, Yixi. Take this lantern as a gift for our first meeting," Dongfang Yu said with a smile.
" Since Yu 'er said so, then it would be impolite of me to refuse," Lin Yixi smiled as well.
" Yixi, come with me to my house to get it," Dongfang Yu said.
Lin Yixi nodded.”
When they arrived at Dongfang Yu's house, Dongfang Yu said to Lin Yixi,"Yixi, if you don't mind, come to my house.”
"I don't mind. Why would I mind? I was afraid that you wouldn't let me in.”Lin Yixi smiled.
" Why would I? Yixi, please," Dongfang Yu said.
However, Dong Fang Yu stopped after taking two steps and looked at Gang Hao and the other three. She didn't want Gang Hao and the others to go in. After all, they had a bad reputation, but she didn't know how to say it.
Dongfang Yu's expression was seen by Lin Yixi, so she said to Gang Hao and the others,"The four of you go and ask the boss just now where she sold the remaining lanterns. See if you can buy them back for me.”
" Alright, Boss. We'll be leaving first." Gang Hao and the other three left eagerly.
Dongfang Yu smiled at Lin Yixi before walking into the house."Yixi, let's go in."
Dongfang Yu brought Lin Yixi to the living room and introduced her family to Lin Yixi.
After that, Dongfang Yu's family kept asking Lin Yixi questions, making Lin Yixi's scalp tingle. They were all asking about him and Dongfang Yu, making Lin Yixi feel like he was their future son-in-law.
" Yu 'er, why are you doing this?" Lin Yixi asked unhappily as he got rid of Dongfang Yu's family and came to Dongfang Yu's courtyard.
" Yixi, I'm sorry. I didn't want to do this, but I really had no choice. Sob…" Dong Fang Yu started crying as she spoke.
" Alright, stop crying. Yu 'Er, tell me what's the matter," Lin Yixi said softly when he saw Dongfang Yu crying.
Hearing that, Dong Fang Yu stopped crying and said,""Yixi, you might not know this, but I have an engagement with Luo Hui. He has been coming to my house to urge us to get married. But I don't like him, and Luo Hui is a notorious villain, so I…"
" So you used me to meet your family, and your family thought that you and I were together. That way, you wouldn't have to marry Luo Hui, right?" Lin Yixi continued on Dongfang Yuxi's behalf.
" I'm sorry, Yixi. Actually, I really want to be friends with you. I don't want to use you. It's just that... sob..." Dongfang Yu started crying again.
" You don't have to apologize. Since we're friends, what's wrong with me helping you this time?" Lin Yixi knew that Dongfang Yu really wanted to be friends with him, so he forgave her.
" Yu 'er, your Dongfang family is as famous as the Luo family. You're both ranked fourth among the six big families in Tiandu. Are you afraid of them?" Lin Yixi asked.?
" Yixi, you don't know this. In recent years, the Luo and Chen families have been developing very quickly, while the Dongfang family has been stagnant. Now, we are at the bottom of the six families and can't be ranked fourth with the Chen and Luo families. So, my family wants me to marry the Luo family," Dongfang Yu said sadly.
" Yu 'er, I'm already at your place, you should come to my place too," Lin Yixi suddenly said.
" Thank you, Yixi, but I can't go with you," Dongfang Yu said gratefully. She knew that Lin Yixi wanted her to go to the Lin family to tell them that they were indeed together.
" Let's go. That way, your family will be more convinced that our relationship is special," Lin Yixi smiled.
" I, I…I don't think so." Dong Fang Yu wanted to agree, but she said no. It was as if she had some difficulties.
" Why?" Lin Yixi asked.
" Yixi, you don't know, but Luo Hui has been pestering me recently. As soon as I step out of the room, he will appear in front of me. However, for some reason, he hasn't appeared in the past few days. Instead, he has sent two people to follow me," Dongfang Yu said helplessly.
" So those two followers were sent by Luo Hui to follow Dongfang Yu," Lin Yixi said to himself."Yu 'Er, I know you're afraid of causing trouble for me. Don't worry, Luo Hui won't dare to do anything to me. Besides, we're friends now.”
"But…"
" But what? Let's go, let's go," Lin Yixi didn't care anymore and pulled Dongfang Yu away.
" Wait a minute, Yixi, I'll go get the lanterns," Dongfang Yu suddenly remembered that Lin Yixi was here to get the lanterns, so she shouted.
" Okay, I'll wait for you here. Go get it," Lin Yixi smiled.
After a while, Dongfang Yu ran up to Lin Yixi with two lanterns. Lin Yixi held the lantern in one hand and Dongfang Yu's hand in the other before walking out of the house.
Dongfang Yu blushed and let Lin Yixi hold her hand. She knew that this would prove it to her family.
Lin Yixi returned to his courtyard and saw Fang Mengcheng chatting with Ling Ziyun and the others. Lin Yixi smiled,"Ah, Meng 'er, why are you here?”
" What, I'm not welcome here?" Fang Mengxi walked up to Lin Yixi and said playfully.
" Meng 'er, you'd better stay away from them, or you'll learn bad things," Lin Yixi sighed as he looked at the usually gentle Fang Meng. She had become like this after chatting with Ling Ziyun and the others.
" Yixi Bro, are you saying that we're bad?" Ling Zixue ran over and hugged Lin Yixi.
" Yes, yes, yes, you're the worst here," Lin Yixi pinched Ling Zixue's nose and smiled.
" You're so annoying," Ling Zixue scolded Lin Yixi before lying in his arms.
" Eh, sister Yu 'er, why are you with Xi?" Fang Meng finally noticed Dongfang Yu beside Lin Yi.
" You can still see me? I thought you only had Lin Yixi in your heart and had long forgotten about me," Dongfang Yu joked.
" Sister Yu 'er, don't make fun of me," Fang Meng said with a red face.
" I'm not making fun of you. Are you in a hurry to marry Yixi? You haven't even married yet and you're already here to get a good seat," Dongfang Yu teased Fang Meng.
" That's not true," Fang Meng said immediately."I think Sister Yu 'Er is in a hurry to marry Xi. Why didn't you tell me that you were together with Xi? I'm not angry.”
" No, I'm not. I've only known Yixi for less than a day," Dongfang Yu said, blushing.
" You came to the Lin family in less than a day. Did you fall in love with our Xi at first sight? That's why you were in a hurry to tell everyone," Fang Meng teased Dongfang Yu.
Lin Yixi could only shake his head as he watched Fang Meng and Dongfang Yu tease each other. It was best not to meddle in women's affairs, or else it was very likely to get into trouble.
" Xi, why are you smiling? Hurry up and help," Ling Ziyun walked to Lin Yixi's side and winked at Lin Yixi.
Lin Yixi hugged Ling Ziyun and smiled."It's hard for an upright official to decide on family matters. I can't care about this. I might be attacked by them as soon as I open my mouth.”
" Boss, boss, help, help…" Suddenly, a voice entered Lin Yixi's ears.
Lin Yixi looked towards the source of the voice and saw Zhian yelling as he scrambled towards Lin Yixi.
" Zhian, what's wrong?" Lin Yixi helped Zhian up and asked with a frown.
