"Cousin, after we get to the city, I need to visit a few friends first, so I won't be going to the Li residence."

Long Xiaoyun said, "It might not be safe for Miss Lin to go alone. How about my brother and I accompany her?"

“Yes, Shiyin, no matter what, my brother and I will take you there,” Li Jinwen said.

Tie Chuanjia covered his head; he couldn't bear to watch anymore.

If it weren't for the fact that Long Xiaoyun had saved his young master's life, he would have really wanted to punch him to death.

With Long Xiaoyun's physique, he's really no match for Tie Chuanjia. One punch isn't enough, but two, three, or even ten punches would be enough.

Long Xiaoyun's martial arts skills were mediocre; he was just a silver spear with a wax head.

"Alright, but my friends probably won't like you. You can leave when the time comes." Lin Shiyin said, getting into the carriage and driving into the capital.

Tie Chuanjia asked, "Miss, where are we going?"

Lin Shiyin said, "They are at Yuelai Inn. Just walk straight ahead."

"Miss, hold on tight." Once they reached the main road, Tie Chuanjia spurred his horse and galloped away.

The carriage was made by the Mo family and was equipped with a shock absorption system. Even though it was going very fast, Lin Shiyin did not feel much vibration inside.

About 15 minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of Yuelai Inn.

People kept coming out of the inn looking dejected.

When the four entered, the innkeeper said, "I'm sorry, esteemed guests, our inn is full. Please visit another establishment."

"Shopkeeper, I'm here to find someone. Does Lin Zhu live here?"

Chapter 114 I shouldn't have stepped through this door

"Young Master Lin, he's here." The shopkeeper asked, "What is the relationship between you and Young Master Lin, young lady?"

Lin Shiyin said, "She and I are friends. Zhang Sanniang and Huang Rong are also here, right?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper confirmed it and nodded, saying, "They're in the backyard. I'll have someone take you there."

"Thank you for your trouble." Lin Shiyin smiled and gave a slight bow before following the waiter to the backyard.

Li Jinwen and Long Xiaoyun followed, while Tie Chuanjia watched the carriage from outside.

It was afternoon, and Lin Zhu was in the courtyard instructing Zhang San Niang on the "Tianshan Plum Blossom Hand" technique.

Huang Rong drew the Six Yang Palms of Tianshan, the White Rainbow Palm Force, and the Shifting Flower Jade Technique, so she did not need Lin Zhu's guidance.

“Sister Yu, this is how you should do it,” Lin Zhu demonstrated, then reached out to correct Zhang San Niang’s movements.

He would support her waist, press her chest, and pat her buttocks, giving her detailed instructions in every possible way, but it was mostly about taking advantage of her.

Luckily, there was no one else in the yard, otherwise she would have blushed.

Outside the courtyard, the waiter said to Lin Shiyin, "Miss, Young Master Lin is coming in."

Hearing the sound, Lin Zhu looked towards the courtyard gate. A beautiful and elegant figure stood outside the gate, accompanied by two other people, one of whom was a handsome man.

Zhang San Niang stopped what she was doing and looked towards the door.

Lin Shiyin stepped forward and recognized the two people immediately; she recognized Lin Zhu as the first one she saw.

"I am Lin Shiyin!" she introduced herself to the two with a smile.

“You are Shiyin!” Zhang Sanniang walked towards her. “I am Zhang Sanniang.” As they spoke, their hands clasped together, as if they had known each other for a long time.

Then he looked at Li Jinwen and Long Xiaoyun and asked in a low voice, "Is this the unreliable cousin and the scoundrel you mentioned?"

Although her voice was soft, Li Jinwen still heard it, which made him a little embarrassed.

Long Xiaoyun was even more embarrassed than him. What kind of name is "dog skin plaster"?

The two of them naturally adopted this identity.

Lin Shiyin even admitted, "It was the two of them."

Lin Zhu's attention was focused on the faces of the two people. Long Xiaoyun's cheeks twitched, as if he was angry.

Li Jinwen's face showed more helplessness than anything else.

"Sister Shiyin." He stepped forward and greeted her, nodding to Li Jinwen as well, while Long Xiaoyun was completely ignored.

Lin Shiyin turned her gaze to Lin Zhu, "Your little brother is so handsome, he's even more beautiful than us!"

Calling Lin Zhu "little brother" has become an unspoken rule in the group.

'Is this a man?' Li Jinwen and Long Xiaoyun wondered. 'Impossible!'

"Sister, you're just as good!" Lin Zhu replied with a smile. "Sister Rong'er and the others are in the main courtyard. Shall I take you there?"

"Okay!" Lin Shiyin nodded with a smile, then said to Li Jinwen, "Cousin, you can go back now."

Li Jinwen gave a wry smile and was about to take his leave with Long Xiaoyun.

A voice came from behind, "Is that Brother Li?"

Everyone turned to look, and the person named Li Jinwen was Chu Liuxiang.

"Brother Chu!" Li Jinwen exclaimed in surprise, "I didn't expect to see you here too."

"It really is you!" Chu Liuxiang smiled and quickly walked up.

"You two know each other?" Lin Zhu asked Chu Liuxiang.

"We're more than just acquaintances; Brother Li and I are practically best friends," Chu Liuxiang said. "Come on, let me introduce you to some new friends." He had barely finished speaking when he noticed Lin Shiyin. "Sister-in-law's here too!"

"I'm not your sister-in-law," Lin Shiyin snorted.

Chu Liuxiang looked at Li Jinwen, his eyes asking, "What's wrong with you two?"

Li Jinwen smiled wryly; he didn't know what to say.

Long Xiaoyun felt like he was sitting on pins and needles; he felt like he was about to be gossiped about.

He could pretend he didn't know about stealing his brother's wife, but if it were made public, his hopes would be completely dashed.

He truly loved Lin Shiyin, so much so that he wasn't particularly impressed by Lin Zhu.

Li Jinwen is the same.

The atmosphere became a little awkward at this point.

"Seventh Child, we have heard that distinguished guests have arrived. Please come in for a chat," Hua Manlou's voice broke the awkward silence.

“Yes, let’s get him admitted to the hospital first.” Chu Liuxiang grabbed Li Jinwen’s hand and led him inside.

Long Xiaoyun lifted his foot to follow.

Lin Shiyin said, "You and Lao Tie should go to the Li residence first."

Long Xiaoyun paused for a moment, then forced a smile. "Alright, Miss Lin." He then said to Li Jinwen, "Brother, I'll be going now."

Just as Chu Liuxiang was about to try and persuade him to stay, he heard a voice beside him, "Let him go. If you're not afraid of embarrassment, then stay."

Chu Liuxiang was a shrewd man. He immediately made a connection to something, and with a thought, he left Long Xiaoyun alone.

Long Xiaoyun walked away alone, his back view showing a forlorn look, much like a stray dog.

Li Jinwen turned his head and looked at it, but ultimately said nothing.

His sense of morality is exceptionally high in certain aspects.

After watching Long Xiaoyun leave, the group entered the main courtyard.

Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, Jing Ke, and others had already risen to greet them.

"Let me introduce you all. This is Li Jinwen, from Liyuan, Baoding. His family produced seven Jinshi (successful candidates in the highest imperial examinations) and three Tanhua (third-place finishers) from the father and son. He is the young Tanhua."

Chu Liuxiang gave a formal introduction to Li Jinwen, and then introduced, "This is Miss Lin Shiyin."

This is quite simple; the main problem is that he doesn't know how to introduce Lin Shiyin.

"You are Sister Shiyin, and I am Rong'er." Huang Rong stepped forward and grabbed Lin Shiyin, feeling a little sorry for her older sister.

"You must be Rong'er, you're so beautiful." Lin Shiyin also held Huang Rong's hand. This feeling of chatting online and meeting in person offline was very novel.

"Sister Shiyin, I am Su Rongrong."

"My sister is so beautiful. I am Li Ji."

Liu Ruoxin wasn't there; she had gone back to Tianhe Medical Clinic to keep busy after dusk that day.

"Rongrong and Liji are truly beautiful." Lin Shiyin looked at the beauties in front of her and felt very pleased.

Who says beautiful women can't appreciate other beautiful women?

Li Hongxiu and Song Tian'er also stepped forward to greet her, saying somewhat awkwardly, "Sister Shiyin, I am Li Hongxiu (Song Tian'er)."

Lin Shiyin looked at the two of them, wondering if they were in the group chat. Why didn't she recognize them?

But she still responded to their greetings and acted just as enthusiastically.

Huang Rong asked in a low voice, "Sister Shiyin, is this your unreliable cousin? That scoundrel didn't come along, did he?"

Upon hearing similar words again, Li Jinwen paused, looking at Lin Shiyin.

“Yes, it’s him.” Lin Shiyin nodded. “That scoundrel is here too. He was here before, but I chased him away.”

Chu Liuxiang immediately realized that Long Xiaoyun was a leech. However, they had only just met, so how could she know more about Li Jinwen than he did?

Huang Rong, Su Rongrong, and Li Ji looked Li Jinwen up and down, their eyes filled with disdain.

'Who exactly did my cousin tell about this?' Li Jinwen felt a lump in his throat, and his whole body felt uncomfortable.

Lin Zhu watched all this, secretly amused. 'Hahaha, it's so funny to see others embarrassed.'

Lu Xiaofeng and the other men were quite curious, their thirst for knowledge was overflowing.

Who says men don't gossip?

At this moment, all eyes in the entire hospital were focused on Li Jinwen.

Li Jinwen: I shouldn't have stepped through this door.
