The carriage door opened, and a middle-aged man with an imposing appearance stepped out.
“Father, is this the Lin Residence?”
Two beautifully dressed, youthful young ladies followed suit, their curious black eyes darting around.
Lin Jinpeng was in charge of greeting guests at the front door. Seeing the middle-aged man coming out of the flying carriage, he was startled and quickly went over to greet him.
He walked briskly, coming up close, and bowed with great respect.
“You are Lin Qilang, Jinpeng?”
Dragon Rock City Lord, Mu Liang, extended his hand in a friendly gesture, smilingly looking at him.
“I am indeed Lin Jinpeng.”
Lin Jinpeng straightened his back and spoke humbly: “City Lord’s visit graces my humble residence. Please co in.”
“Haha, good!”
Mu Liang’s eyes showed appreciation as he nodded and followed Jinpeng inside.
The two young ladies accompanied them, one of them looking curiously at Jinpeng with her gleaming black eyes.
Jinpeng, with his sharp senses, noticed her gaze and subconsciously avoided it, appearing slightly uneasy.
“Hehe.”
The younger sister elbowed her elder sister’s waist and giggled with her mouth covered.
“Qifu.”
The elder sister of the two, Mu Qilin, glared at her younger sister discontentedly and quickened her pace, leaving Qifu behind.
“Already here, but why all the pretense?”
Mu Qifu didn’t care, pouting her cheeks in complaint.
A rattan-woven Chuqiu ball flew out from a nearby courtyard wall. Just by sheer bad luck, it was heading straight towards Mu Qifu.
She was grumbling, not paying attention, and was hit squarely by the Chuqiu ball, leaving a clear mark on her forehead.
“Who dares to hit !”
Enraged, Mu Qifu picked up the Chuqiu ball and leaped over the courtyard wall, intending to give the initiator a severe beating.
“Ah!”
A scream followed. Lin Ruize accidentally kicked the Chuqiu ball out of the courtyard and had just planned to fly out to fetch it back when a figure flew towards him.
The two collided without any surprise. Ruize, in pain, beca the cushion for the fall, retreating several steps and falling to the ground with the young lady.
Stunned for a few seconds like a collapsed stack of arhats, a loud scream pierced the courtyard wall and reached the ears of Mu Liang and Lin Jinpeng.
Startled, Mu Liang and Lin Jinpeng simultaneously leapt over the courtyard wall and into the yard.
At the sight, their hearts trembled, and cold sweat dripped from the backs of their heads.
“Stop shouting.”
Seeing people coming in, Lin Ruize gasped and complained angrily, pushing Mu Qifu away and bouncing back up from the ground, rubbing his aching back: “I’m the one who’s injured, why are you shouting?”
“How dare you say that.”
Mu Qifu pointed at the clear ball mark on her forehead, glaring angrily: “Who started it, kicking the ball at soone’s face?”
“Uh.”
Lin Ruize, seeing the ball mark, instantly lost his temper and avoided her gaze awkwardly.
“Ahem.”
Lin Jinpeng cleared his throat and spoke awkwardly: “City Lord Mu, Miss Mu, my nephew didn’t an any harm. Please forgive him this ti, I will apologize on his behalf.”
“Hehe, it’s just children playing, no harm done.”
Mu Liang had a purpose for coming, and far from being angry, he even showed an unexpected delight.
His magnanimity made Lin Jinpeng feel even more embarrassed. After thinking for a mont, he politely invited, “My grandfather is inside right now. Please follow to the Drunken Frost Residence, where he will personally entertain our distinguished guests.”
