As he spoke, a gossip-loving glint burned in his eyes.

Meeting Lin An's gaze, Lin Geng's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Didn't we agree not to gossip?

So what are we doing now?

Lin An noticed Lin Geng's expression and said without batting an eye, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not gossiping. I'm not interested in gossip. I'm just showing concern for a junior, that's all."

Lin Geng did not speak.

Lin An coughed lightly, "Really, I'm not lying to you, I'm really not interested in gossip."

"..."

A few seconds later, Lin Geng managed a strained smile. "Senior, how credible do you think your words are?"

Lin An glared at him, "You little brat, do you want to get beaten up?"

"..."

Lin Geng shrank his neck, pouted aggrievedly, and answered honestly, "Of course I will do as the young master says. I have no experience in pursuing girls, let alone the second young lady."

"The fact that the young master was able to win over a girl as beautiful as the young lady shows that he has some experience in this area. Listening to him is better than trying to figure things out on your own."

"Bullshit!"

Lin An looked at him with disdain, "Can you compare to the young master? How handsome is he? How talented is he?"

"Let me tell you, if you really try to woo the Second Miss using the method the young master suggested, you have absolutely no chance!"

Lin Geng was astonished, "Senior doesn't want me to listen to the young master?"

"Of course!"

"But if I don't listen to the young master, then who should I listen to?"

Lin An put his hands behind his back, squinted his eyes, and said, "Listen to me."

Lin Geng: "..."

Is this guy really not interested in gossip?

Chapter 871 Fish... Can we trust Xiao Mo's words?

"Senior, didn't you say you weren't interested in gossip?"

Lin Geng could no longer hold back and mustered his courage to ask, "But isn't your current behavior just gossiping?"

"wrong!"

Lin An shook his head and said, "Didn't I just explain? I'm not gossiping, I'm just showing concern for the younger generation."

In short, it boils down to one sentence.

Their main strategy is to deny it.

As long as he doesn't admit it, then it's not gossip!

Lin Geng's feelings at this moment can only be described in four words.

I am speechless.

You can't just lie through your teeth like that.

This kind of nonsense wouldn't even fool a child...

But Lin Geng could only think this in his heart and dared not say it out loud. He knew Lin An's personality well. If he displeased him, he would probably really get beaten up.

Normally, he would just accept being beaten up by Lin An, but he had to make an appointment with the Second Miss tomorrow, and he couldn't go to see her with a bruised and swollen face, could he?

Therefore, he can only go along with what others say now.

"Does the senior have any good suggestions?"

"Of course, I have suggestions."

Lin An laughed, leaning close to Lin Geng's ear, "I'm telling you, after you take the Second Miss out tomorrow, do this..."

After hearing Lin An's suggestion, Lin Geng's expression was extremely strange. "Senior, are you sure this method will work?"

"Are you doubting me?"

"..."

Lin Geng's lips twitched, and he shook his head reluctantly, "This junior wouldn't dare."

Lin An looked at him with an expression that said, "Since you don't dare, then do as I say. I've lived for over a hundred years and I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice."

Upon hearing this cliché, Lin Geng couldn't help but retort, "Did your family own a saltworks, senior?"

A faint threat surfaced in Lin An's decaying eyes, "Is this how you speak to your seniors?"

"cough……"

Lin Geng quickly shook his head and said with a smile, "Senior, please don't misunderstand. I was just joking with you. I will definitely do as you suggest tomorrow."

Lin An nodded and smiled with satisfaction, "That's not bad. Alright, keep up the good work and try to win over the Second Miss. This old man will have to rely on you, the son-in-law of the Lin family."

Lin Geng quickly shook his head, "Senior is joking, it's not even close to being a done deal yet."

Lin An's eyes held a meaningful look as he turned to look in the direction Lin Mo had left. "Since the young master has taken action, it means this matter has a high chance of success. Make the most of it; not everyone gets such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

After saying that, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

Lin Geng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his residence in the North District with a heavy heart.

In the northern district, rows of stone houses stand side by side. These stone houses are all made of high-quality granite, and the interior decoration style of the stone houses is extremely primitive. Apart from electric lights, there are no other technological products.

Lin Geng lives in stone house number 204. There are a total of 300 stone houses in the northern area of ​​the Lin family manor, and the number of the stone house one lives in is closely related to one's combat strength.

If you are strong enough, you can challenge the previous person, and if you win, you can move into their stone house.

For example, Lin Geng can challenge the martial artist living in stone house number 203.

If you win, you can live in stone house number 203.

Don't think that the stone house number is useless; the smaller the stone house number, the more generous the monthly salary.

Take Lin An for example. He currently lives in Stone House No. 14, which is why Lin Geng told Lin Mo today that his strength could rank among the top fifteen in the Lin family.

Currently, there are 205 martial artists living in the North District. Lin Geng lives in stone house number 204. This means that among all the martial artists in the North District, he has only been able to defeat one person, making him a true bottom-tier fighter.

However, this doesn't prove anything.

Because Lin Geng is the only level eight martial artist in the North District, and also the youngest, with unlimited potential.

After closing the door, Lin Geng sat on the edge of the bed, recalling the words the young master had said not long ago. After hesitating for a long time, he took out his phone from his pocket, glanced at the time, and saw that it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

This time...

Miss Er shouldn't be asleep yet, right?

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Geng opened WeChat and found the Second Miss's WeChat account.

In fact, among martial artists, especially high-level martial artists, very few people use WeChat. Their world consists of only two words: strength.

It is precisely this pure pursuit of goals that enables them to become high-level martial artists.

Lin Geng learned how to use WeChat because Lin Xue specifically taught him. In her words, it would be more convenient to contact him after he learned how to use WeChat.

[Second Miss, are you resting?]

After sending the message, Lin Geng's mood was like a rollercoaster, going up and down, and every second felt like an eternity.

This was the first time he had taken the initiative to send Lin Xue a WeChat message; usually, it was Lin Xue who would reach out to him first.

"Why haven't they come back yet? Are they asleep?"

Every few seconds, Lin Geng would pick up his phone to check it. Before long, due to his extreme nervousness, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead even though he was in the chilly stone house.

Meanwhile, in Lin Xue's room, the sound of running water in the bathroom stopped.

Not long after, Lin Xue emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. Her beautiful figure was faintly visible under the light. After sitting down on the bed, she dried her hair while thinking about her conversation with Lin Mo during dinner that evening. Her expression sometimes showed shyness, and sometimes revealed a faint smile.

Just then, I heard a ding-dong sound.

A look of confusion crossed her eyes as she muttered to herself, "Who would message me so late at night?"

Upon seeing the WeChat message on her phone screen, she was momentarily flustered.

As far as I can remember, this seems to be the first time Lin Geng has taken the initiative to contact me...

She had just talked to Lin Mo about Lin Geng during dinner that evening, and less than two hours later, Lin Geng took the initiative to chat with her. Could it be that Lin Mo had said something to Lin Geng?

The thought of this possibility made Lin Xue's face turn red uncontrollably.

She wasn't sure what Lin Mo had said to Lin Geng, or whether he had revealed all her thoughts.

Right now, she's extremely worried.

What if Lin Mo, that rascal, says everything he should and shouldn't say? What will Lin Geng think?

For a moment, Lin Xue's thoughts were extremely complicated. She looked down at the message sent by Lin Geng, not knowing how to reply. After struggling for a long time, she finally called Lin Mo.

As soon as the call connected, Lin Mo's voice came through.

"Sis, you're still awake?"

"Sleep my ass!"

Lin Xue's tone was full of accusation, "Xiao Mo, tell me the truth, did you go to see Lin Geng after dinner?"

"Hey?"

Lin Mo asked with surprise, "Sis, how did you know I went to see Lin Geng?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xue's heart skipped a beat. "What did you say to Lin Geng?"

"I didn't say anything."

Sensing something was off about Lin Xue's tone, Lin Mo asked curiously, "Sis, why are you so nervous? What did Lin Geng want to talk to you about?"

"Nothing to talk about."

At this point, Lin Xue didn't want to hide anything and truthfully told him about the situation and her worries.
