I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.
Lin Hang is quite sothing, isn't he? He knows exactly what to ask to hit where it hurts...
With just one sentence, he and Grandpa pushed
onto a path of no return that I had to face.
"Has anyone ever told you that you're annoying?" Lin Huan said sternly.
Undeterred and rambling even more, Lin Hang said, "My dad also says I've been talkative since I was little, that I'm the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada Child, just like Monk Tang, haha. So, Grandpa, why didn't you strongly break up Snake Lord and my cousin? I rember you banished Aunt Xiangnan from the house back then."
What a move, Lin Hang... He's practically forcing Grandpa to kick
out of the house.
But from another perspective, Lin Hang was also forcing Lin Huan to take a stand.
Unexpectedly, Lin Huan didn't lose his temper; instead, he pressed his forehead and said, "Your cousin and Yu Longting are mismatched, they'll break up sooner or later without my intervention. Why should I be the bad guy?"
I instinctively looked up at Lin Huan. What do you an by that, Grandpa?
Is it because of the rumors that Lin Xintang is Yu Longting's daughter...
"Look at you, pouting your small mouth, you could hang an oil bottle on it."
Seeing my expression, Lin Huan was both amused and sympathetic, "Wanwan, even if no one in the Lin Family opposes this marriage, and even without those rumors about Yu Longting and Qing Li, have you thought about the identity of Snake Lord? Will his people accept you?"
I stared at Lin Huan, speechless.
Internally, I hailed Grandpa as wise.
So far, the people I've encountered from Yu Longting's side...
Not one of them approved of my relationship with Yu Longting. Initially, Dumpling and I were almost killed by Yu Longting's brother, Yu Rongling.
"Did I guess right?" Lin Huan asked with a aningful smile.
I nodded earnestly, then imdiately shook my head. "No, that's not right!"
Even if Grandpa stated the facts, I couldn't admit it.
My ultimate goal was to get Lin Huan to accept Yu Longting, to agree to our union.
Watching
nearly shake my head off, Lin Huan patted my head and said, "Wanwan, you're not only from different races than Yu Longting, but Su Chongwen also killed Snake Lord. His sect's experts won't accept you."
"I'll work hard to get them all to accept ..." I said resolutely, looking at Lin Huan.
Lin Huan said, "The entire Snake Tribe opposes you, are you going to explain to each one of them?"
Uh..." My mood instantly deflated, and my head drooped.
Lin Huan was far too wise; it was a knock-out blow.
He totally breached my defenses...
There are countless mbers of the Snake Tribe in the world; even if I had the intention, I couldn't possibly explain to them all.
Lin Huan kindly comforted , "Don't be sad, you've rejected Zhang Shuying, Grandpa will help you pick a better match. That will infuriate Taoist Zhang!"
"That won't be necessary, Yu Longting and I haven't split up," I responded with a bitter smile, politely declining.
Lin Huan didn't mind and declared confidently, "It doesn't matter, you two will eventually break up, Grandpa will prepare for you in advance."
I was left speechless...
The process of getting the Lin Family to accept Yu Longting was going to be long and challenging.
The car stopped in front of a uniquely decorated, bourgeois-looking detached villa.
"Isn't this Aunt Lin Wanyan's place?" Lin Hang opened the car door, inviting
and Lin Huan out. He glanced at the villa, as if he'd just realized he recognized the place.
Lin Huan ignored Lin Hang and said to , "The person I'm taking you to see is called Lin Wanyan, a female relative from a collateral branch of the Lin Family. She's one of the few won in the Lin Family skilled in Mysterious Art. When you et her, just call her 'Auntie'."
"Yes, Grandpa," I said, nodding politely after getting out of the car.
A bloodied cloth bundle was suddenly thrown out from the villa, heading straight for Lin Huan and .
Lin Hang sprang forward, shielding Lin Huan, "What demon dares to attack the Patriarch of the Lin Family with a hidden weapon?! Don't worry Grandpa, your loyal grandson is here to protect you."
