Chapter 188 An Encounter with Lin Xiaoran

"Is that so? So you're not in a hurry to go back after coming to Yaocheng this time?" Shen Baisu leaned lazily on Feng Yin's shoulder, playing with her big wavy hair.

Feng Yin hummed in agreement.

"By the way, have you found any new fellow disciples recently? Are there any new leads regarding the mainland?" Feng Yin knew that Shen Baisu and Xia Anhe had signed a new agreement. She hadn't seen any new people coming to see her recently because she hadn't been in contact with Shen Baisu much and didn't know the situation here.

Shen Baisu was in low spirits and replied lazily, "Yes, there are some, but they are all people I don't know. They all recognize me, but it's useless. There are no new clues. They were all hit by the Heavenly Stone during the fight against it, and what they said is exactly the same as what Changyang and Muye said."

Feng Yin felt a little regretful upon hearing this, but she didn't say anything discouraging. Instead, she reached out and ruffled Shen Baisu's hair, comforting her, "It's okay, take it slow."

Shen Wenxu and his assistant Lin, who were sitting in the driver's seat, heard the conversation between the two. Although they were confused, they still managed to catch some of the strange words.

Fellow disciples, the mainland, fighting against the Heavenly Stone, being hit?

Why does that sound so fantastical?

Because Feng Yin and Shen Baisu were still chatting, Assistant Lin and Shen Wenxu couldn't interrupt, so they could only leave the two of them with doubts all the way to Yao Nong University.

"Thank you, brother. Goodbye."

After getting off the car, Shen Baisu immediately waved to Shen Wenxu.

Shen Wenxu simply nodded and then had his assistant, Lin, drive away.

After the car left, Shen Baisu stood there watching for a while until it was out of sight before she took Feng Yin's arm and walked into the school.

"What's wrong? You look so preoccupied?" Feng Yin nudged Shen Baisu's arm when she saw her deep in thought.

After regaining her senses, Shen Baisu raised her hand and touched her chin. "It just feels a little strange."

Feng Yin: "What's strange?"

Shen Baisu stroked her chin and said, "My older brother, something's wrong with him."

Feng Yin listened, slightly puzzled. "Is something wrong? I think he's a good person. He's polite and kind to you, his sister. When he saw that you didn't have a car, he specially arranged for his driver to bring you here. Although he seems a bit indifferent, he seems to have some feelings for you. Anyway, he's much better than your father."

As Feng Yin was speaking, she suddenly made a sharp turn, "Of course, no matter how your brother treats you, it can't compare to mine. I think even your own father and your own brother don't love you as much as your senior sister, I do."

As she spoke, Feng Yin reached out and hooked her arm around Shen Baisu's neck, pulling her into her embrace. "So, if you're going to be someone, be my little darling, okay?"

Shen Baisu: "..."

After hearing Feng Yin's words, Shen Baisu did not continue the topic of Shen Wenxu, so she did not tell Feng Yin about Shen Wenxu's strange behavior.

Shen Baisu did not deny what Feng Yin had said, and Shen Wenxu had demonstrated it all today. However, that was precisely what was amiss.

In Shen Baisu's memory, Shen Wenxu had never called her Susu, let alone asked a driver to bring her to school.

Moreover, Shen Wenxu was a bit too talkative today, asking her so many questions.

Shen Baisu couldn't help but suspect that Shen Wenxu knew something and definitely wanted to get on her good side so he could bring up the idea of ​​cultivating immortality.

Of course, it was all just Shen Baisu's speculation, so she didn't tell Feng Yin. Instead, she took Feng Yin to find Su Qing and Mu Hui to meet up.

She had already messaged Su Qing and Mu Ye; the master and apprentice had already reserved seats in the school cafeteria and were waiting for them to come over for lunch.

Su Qing and Mu Ye were at the sixth canteen of Yao Nong University. Shen Baisu and Feng Yin arrived not long after.

The Sixth Canteen is the most popular canteen at Yao Nong University. It is lunchtime, and many people are coming and going outside the canteen. When they see Shen Baisu and Feng Yin, they often cast different glances at the two of them.

Shen Baisu ignored the stares and simply pulled Feng Yin away from the crowd as they walked into the cafeteria.

As the two stepped onto the steps leading into the cafeteria, Shen Baisu was suddenly pulled back by Feng Yin. "That looks like someone you know. She seems to be being bullied." Hearing this, Shen Baisu subconsciously looked in the direction Feng Yin was looking and indeed saw someone she knew.

It's Lin Xiaoran.

Besides Lin Xiaoran, there were two other people standing opposite her.

There was a tree standing next to the cafeteria. Lin Xiaoran and the other two people were standing under the tree, talking about something. Suddenly, one of them attacked Lin Xiaoran.

Seeing this, Shen Baisu narrowed his eyes slightly, then pulled Feng Yin over directly.

"I'll ask you one more time, are you going or not?"

After slapping Lin Xiaoran, the middle-aged man standing opposite her glared at her and pointed at her nose, questioning her.

Lin Xiaoran covered her face and looked coldly at the middle-aged man. "I said I'm not going, and that's final. No matter how many times you ask me, I always give the same answer."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man became even angrier and raised his hand to slap Lin Xiaoran again.

This time, Lin Xiaoran didn't stand still and let the other person hit and scold her. She stepped back and dodged.

This made the middle-aged man even angrier. "You dare to hide? So you've grown up and your wings have hardened, huh? You dare disobey me? You believe I'll go find your mother?"

"If I can't control you, can't your mother control you?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoran's expression changed drastically. "You dare?"

The man sneered, "Do you think I dare?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoran's gaze turned cold as she looked at the man, and the icy coldness in her eyes deepened inch by inch.

As Shen Baisu approached, he could clearly sense the murderous aura emanating from her; she was clearly intent on killing men.

"Senior, do you need any help?"

Shen Baisu's sudden appearance caused the murderous intent in Lin Xiaoran's eyes to dissipate instantly. Lin Xiaoran turned his head to look at Shen Baisu, "Junior Sister Shen? Long time no see."

Shen Baisu: "Long time no see."

After greeting Lin Xiaoran, Shen Baisu looked at the people standing opposite Lin Xiaoran: a middle-aged man and a young man. The two looked somewhat alike and seemed to be father and son.

Shen Baisu had seen that young man before; if she remembered correctly, his name was Xu Huai.

So, what's going on?

Why did Xu Huai's father suddenly start hitting someone? And Xu Huai just stood by and watched his father beat Lin Xiaoran?
With a hint of doubt, Shen Baisu looked at Lin Xiaoran and asked, "Do you... need any help here?"

Lin Xiaoran shook her head at her, "It's just a family matter, it's all taken care of."

Shen Baisu was somewhat surprised by her answer.

Family matters? So this man is Lin Xiaoran's relative?
If that's the case, then it's inappropriate for her to interfere.

Thinking it over, Shen Baisu nodded to Lin Xiaoran and asked, "Are you free? Let's grab a bite to eat together?"

Lin Xiaoran initially wanted to refuse, but guessing that Shen Baisu wanted to help her out of a predicament, she nodded in agreement.

Lin Xiaoran followed Shen Baisu directly without saying hello to the father and son opposite them.

This infuriated Xu's father.

"Xu Zhaodi! You..." Xu's father was furious and was about to chase after her to block her way, but he was stopped.
