"how about you?"
Hearing this question, Lin Geng smiled wryly and scratched his head embarrassedly. "Young Master, to be honest, I am almost the weakest among the martial artists in the Northern Region. According to the rules, one must be a level nine martial artist to be allowed to reside in the Northern Region, but I am only at the peak of level eight."
"The reason I was able to stay in the North District is because... the Second Miss pulled some strings for me."
Go through the back door?
Lin Mo: "..."
Is there really such a thing?
So, this Sister Xue had been plotting against Lin Geng all along?
But they just haven't dared to take action yet?
"cough!"
Lin Mo patted Lin Geng on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile, "It's okay. You've reached the peak of level eight at this age. In the future, becoming a level nine martial artist or even a level ten martial artist won't be difficult."
Lin Geng smiled confidently, "I also believe I can do it."
Then, he changed the subject: "By the way, young master, what exactly do you want to see me about?"
"Cough...cough!"
Lin Mo smiled meaningfully, "Lin Geng, do you want a wife?"
Chapter 869 I'll help you catch up with Sister Xue and become my uncle!
"Cough...cough!"
Noticing Lin Mo's unusual expression, Lin Geng couldn't help but feel puzzled. His tone became more probing, "Young Master, as a martial artist of the Lin family, I will do my best to do whatever you ask. You can speak with confidence."
Hearing this, Lin Mo's face showed a half-smile. "Really?"
"Of course!"
Lin Geng nodded noncommittally.
The Lin family was a source of great kindness for him; his first life was given to him by his parents, and his second life was given to him by the Lin family.
Perhaps influenced by Lin Mo's expression, Lin Geng mistakenly thought that the young master was going to give him a very dangerous task, and took the initiative to say, "Young master, my life belongs to the Lin family. No matter how dangerous the task is, don't worry. Even if I have to give my life, I will definitely complete the task you assign me."
"Danger?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo knew that Lin Geng had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "No, it's not as serious as you think. I do need you to do something, but it's not dangerous at all. On the contrary, it will be very beneficial to you."
Lin Geng became more and more confused as he listened. "Young Master, stop playing games with me. What exactly do you want me to do?"
Lin Mo looked around and lowered his voice, "Lin Geng, I want you to pursue Sister Xue."
"Sister Xue?"
Lin Geng looked bewildered, but his confusion lasted less than three seconds before his eyes widened. "Second...Second Miss?"
Lin Mo nodded in affirmation, "That's right."
Lin Geng shook his head frantically, "Young Master, have you gone mad?"
He pointed at his own nose in utter disarray, "You actually want me to go after the Second Miss? What kind of international joke is this?"
Who is the Second Miss Lin Xue?
A favored daughter of heaven!
And who exactly is Lin Geng?
He was nothing more than a military man.
They are from completely different worlds.
That's why Lin Geng reacted so strongly when he heard what Lin Mo had told him.
In his view, wasn't this just making things difficult for people?
Lin Mo quickly patted Lin Geng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother Geng, don't get excited."
"Don't, don't, don't..."
Upon hearing the address "Brother Geng," Lin Geng felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy. He hurriedly shook off Lin Mo's arm and took two steps back, his eyes filled with vigilance. "Young Master, we must distinguish between the primary and secondary roles. You are the young master of the Lin family, the future leader of the Lin family, while I am just an insignificant martial artist. Please don't call me 'Brother,' I cannot accept it."
After saying that, he added, "And as for the matter that the young master just asked me to do, please forgive Lin Geng for being incompetent. You... should find someone else more capable."
Lin Mo was not surprised by this situation.
After all, given Lin Xue's status, anyone would feel intimidated.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo took two steps forward and put his arm around Lin Geng's shoulder again. "Don't be in such a hurry to refuse. Since I came to see you today, it's not to make things difficult for you."
Lin Geng shook his head vigorously, "No, it really won't work."
"Young Master, I really can't do that. That's the Second Miss!"
“You may not have been back in the family for long and may not be very clear about the Second Miss’s situation. I’ve been in the Lin family for quite a few years now, and since then, I’ve seen far too many people pursuing the Second Miss.”
At this point, Lin Geng paused, looking at Lin Mo with utmost seriousness, "Young Master, do you know who those people are?"
Lin Mo, naturally, wouldn't refuse gossip, and followed up on Lin Geng's words by asking, "Who is it?"
Lin Geng took a deep breath, "The pride of the great families."
"Isn't this normal?"
Lin Mo smiled and retorted, "With Sister Xue's looks and status, it's perfectly normal for her to have suitors. It would be abnormal if no one did, right?"
Seeing that Lin Mo didn't understand what he meant, Lin Geng hurriedly explained, "Young Master, what I'm trying to tell you is that even these chosen ones can't catch up with the Second Miss, and you want me to chase after her? Aren't you just making fun of me?"
At the end, he glanced at Lin Mo with a very aggrieved expression, "I won't do it."
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow. "Is it that you don't want to do it, or that you're afraid to? Make it clear."
"I wouldn't do it, and I wouldn't dare."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Lin Geng's face. "Not worthy either."
"No, no, no, there's no such thing as being a good match or not. When it comes to feelings, what matters is mutual affection. Family background and social status don't matter."
Lin Mo's smile grew wider. He first calmed Lin Geng down, then changed the subject: "What do you think of Sister Xue? Is she your type?"
Lin Geng opened his mouth, genuinely struggling to keep up with this way of chatting.
He was clearly refusing!
Why……
Why did our conversation veer back to the Second Miss?
Lin Mo chuckled and urged, "Lin Geng, are you even a man? If you like someone, just say so; if you don't, just say so. There are only the two of us here, and I can assure you that no one else will know about our conversation today."
Lin Geng successfully grasped the key point in Lin Mo's words, his eyes showing surprise, "The fourth one?"
"Young Master, from what you're saying, you're going to tell others?"
"This is natural."
Lin Mo nodded in acknowledgment, his tone so matter-of-fact, "Xiaoyuer loves gossip the most, how could I hide something like this from her?"
"However, you can rest assured that I will not tell anyone except Xiaoyuer, and Xiaoyuer will not tell anyone either."
"I……"
Lin Geng wanted to cry but had no tears.
Lin Mo continued to urge, "Hurry up and answer the question, do you like girls like Sister Xue or not?"
Faced with Lin Mo's persistent questioning, Lin Geng looked somewhat uneasy, turned his head slightly, and stammered, "Second Miss... is so outstanding, everyone would like her."
Hearing this answer, Lin Mo smiled from the bottom of his heart, "If you like it, that's good. As long as you like it, this matter is basically 80% successful."
"Eighty percent?"
Lin Geng said with a bitter face, "Young Master, did you really take that joke seriously? I can't catch up with the Second Miss. We're not from the same world at all."
"Who said that?"
Seeing Lin Geng's lack of confidence, Lin Mo glared at him irritably, "You're a man, can't you stop being such a coward?"
"Furthermore, you are not an ordinary man. You are a peak level eight martial artist, and you can break through to the level nine martial artist at any time. You are also very outstanding."
"You should learn a lot from me in this matter. When I first met Xiaoyuer, she was a top student and I was a poor student. I didn't even know I had such an amazing grandfather. But I wasn't intimidated at all. If I liked someone, I just went for it!"
At this point, he grabbed Lin Geng's collar and said in a more serious tone, "If you like someone but don't pursue them, are you going to regret it later?"
"Young Master..."
"I'll help you catch up with Sister Xue and become my uncle!"
"I can not……"
"If I say you can do it, then you can do it!"
"..."
Lin Geng remained silent for a long time, until Lin Mo's patience was completely exhausted, and he finally shouted, "Speak!"
Lin Geng suddenly snapped out of his daze and scratched his head awkwardly. "Young Master, you want me to pursue the Second Miss. What should I do first?"
This change in attitude made Lin Mo laugh. "The first step?"
After pondering intently for a while, he looked up again with a broad smile in his eyes.
"It's actually quite simple. Tomorrow, invite Sister Xue to dinner, shopping, and a movie. Before the movie ends, take her hand. You have to succeed."
For a moment, Lin Geng froze on the spot.
he……
What did you just hear?
On the first day, they ate, went shopping, and watched a movie. He was even allowed to hold the second young lady's hand.
What's the difference between this behavior and suicide?
"Young Master, have I offended you?"
Lin Mo was a little puzzled. "No, why are you suddenly asking this?"
