this day
Winter Moon 27th
morning
The warm sunlight shone on the land of Lujiang River, dispelling the thick chill.
Lin Chen, who had practiced the Tyrannical Body-building Art for a night in the farm space, was ready to go out and take over Dian Wei's supervision of the Tiger Guard's training.
Just as she reached the door, a petite figure appeared at the door.
A white goose down cloak wrapped her petite body tightly. Her round face was a little red from the cold wind. Her delicate nose was slightly sniffed, and she looked a little mischievous. One look and one could tell that she was a lively girl.
Seeing Lin Chen come out, his gaze immediately landed on him. There was some sizing in his eyes, and there was also some curiosity as if he was confirming something.
Lin Chen's gaze had long been attracted by the other party. Looking at this young lady who looked somewhat similar to Da Qiao, he could guess her identity.
"Are you Brother Lin Chen?"
Lin Chen's head tilted slightly. Lin Chen's height was enough for the other party to look up to him. His voice was as ethereal and melodious as a yellow oriole, very pleasant to the ears.
Hearing the other party's address, Lin Chen also revealed a smile.
"Let me guess, your name is Qiao Wan. Everyone in your family calls you Xiao Qiao, right?”
Her little head immediately straightened and she looked at Lin Chen in disbelief.
"I'm fifteen years old this year. I have an elder sister called Qiao Ying. Her family calls her Da Qiao. She's the second daughter of Qiao Yuanpei's family.”
"You, how did you know?"
Xiao Qiao subconsciously took half a step back. Lin Chen's sudden revelation of her identity made her panic.
Looking at Xiaojiao's cute and playful look, Lin Chen wanted to tease her and deliberately lowered his voice.
"Because I can calculate. Not only that, but I also know that when you were young, you were lost in the mountains because of your mischievousness. In the end, it was your sister who found you.”
"It's by the river ten miles to the east of the city. You went to the river to catch fish, and then you fell asleep by the grass when you were tired.”
"You... How do you know that you really know how to calculate?”
Xiao Qiao took another half a step back, her face full of disbelief. She took another step back and there were stairs behind her.
"Of course, I also know that you came here for your sister.”
After disappearing for three days, he finally knew how to send a message.
"You…"
Xiao Qiao looked as if she had seen a ghost and subconsciously wanted to distance herself from Lin Chen.
However, just as he took a step back, his foot missed and his body fell back.
At this height, if he really fell to the ground, it would really be a big deal.
Fortunately, Lin Chen was prepared. He grabbed Xiao Qiao's wrist and pulled her. She leaned forward and fell into Lin Chen's arms.
Lin Chen did not intend to take advantage of her. After stabilizing Xiao Qiao's body, he released her.
However, just because Lin Chen didn't have such intentions didn't mean that Xiao Qiao wouldn't have wild thoughts. The moment she threw herself into Lin Chen's arms, her face instantly turned red.
"You... How could you do this!"
She lowered her head, and her round, egg-shaped face was so red that blood was about to drip out.
“……”
Lin Chen rubbed his nose awkwardly. Only then did he remember that this was ancient times. This small interaction was not small.
"Tell me, what's wrong with your sister? I haven't heard from her for the past three days.”
Lin Chen had not seen Da Qiao since he left the city wall that day.
After that, he was busy with the special training for the Tiger Guards. Whenever he was free, he would go to the farm space to practice the Tyrannical Body Forging Secrets.
After a while, she really forgot about it.
Of course, he couldn't say that he had forgotten.
Lin Chen knew that Da Qiao was at home, but he didn't know what had happened. He couldn't ask Qiao Song directly.
"Ah, I almost forgot about the important matter.”
After Lin Chen changed the topic, Xiao Qiao let out a cry of surprise. Her embarrassment dissipated and she quickly looked at Lin Chen.
"Sister is sick. She's starting to talk nonsense now. She calls your name from time to time.”
"Sick? When did this happen? Have you seen a doctor?”
"Just three nights ago, the doctor said that he had a cold and left after prescribed medicine. However, he didn't get better after drinking for three days.”
Xiao Qiao told Lin Chen the truth. Lin Chen could not help but frown. He was wondering why this girl had disappeared.
"Is your father home?"
As Lin Chen spoke, he rushed straight in the direction of the Qiao Estate.
"Yes, it's freezing outside. Father has been sorting out official documents at home these past few days.”
Lin Chen stopped in his tracks again. Xiao Qiao quickly followed him and asked curiously,
"Are you going to see your sister?"
Xiao Qiao's eyes lit up again and she looked delighted.
However, he immediately calmed down and muttered,
"But if father is at home, you definitely can't see elder sister. Elder sister is still unmarried. Even if you are the prefect, you have no engagement with her and no matchmaker. He won't let you see her.”
Xiao Qiao looked as if she had seen through everything and spoke logically.
Lin Chen also smiled and looked at the other party.
"You know quite a lot. Then why don't you just keep it from your father?”
"What? Don't let Father know?"
Xiao Qiao was stunned. She still did not understand what Lin Chen was trying to do.
"Let's go!" With that thought in mind, Lin Chen called out to Xiao Qiao. After saying that, he headed in the direction of the Qiao Estate.
"Hey, wait for me. You haven't told me how to keep it from Father.”
"You'll know later."
"Wow, are you trying to sneak into my house?”
Xiao Qiao exclaimed in surprise. A few pedestrians on the road also looked over curiously. However, when they saw that it was Lin Chen, they quickly turned their heads away and pretended not to hear anything.
"Keep your voice down. Are you afraid that others won't know?”
Lin Chen quickly glanced at Xiao Qiao. Why was this girl so silly?
"I... Hehe, how are you going to get in? If father finds out, it's over.”
Xiaojiao giggled, her face full of curiosity. Just thinking about it made her feel excited.
"Don't I still have you?"
Lin Chen looked at Xiao Qiao with interest. Didn't they have a ready-made tour guide when they entered the Qiao residence?
"Me?"
Xiao Qiao was stunned again. Her mouth was slightly agape and she did not react.
Lin Chen didn't say much and continued walking forward. He couldn't help but speed up.
"Hey, wait for me!"
Xiao Qiao came back to her senses and quickly chased after him.
