After arriving at the inn, Shen Xin first found Lin Pingzhi and asked him how he was doing with the tasks he had arranged.

Lin Pingzhi gave Shen Xin a surprise. He had already negotiated with the family next door to Liu Ruoxin. Not only had he bought the room, but the family would also move out tomorrow and vacate the room.

In other words, Shen Xin can move the day after tomorrow.

After praising Lin Pingzhi a few words, Shen Xin went to see Guo Furong and Xiaoqing and chatted with them for a while.

Then, Shen Xin went to find Ji Yaohua.

It was not until late at night that Shen Xin left the inn and returned to Liu Ruoxin.

Although I don't want Liu Ruoxin to think too much, I can't ignore Ji Yaohua.

Perhaps she slept too long during the day, so even though it was already late at night, Liu Ruoxin still hadn't slept.

In the room, the warm candlelight shone on Liu Ruoxin15. Liu Ruoxin was wearing a white gauze nightgown, and her pair of snow-white and slender legs were faintly visible.

She was lying on her side in bed, holding a book in her hands.

Shen Xin appeared in the room directly using the instant transfer technique. After Liu Ruoxin noticed him, she quickly hid the book in her hand under the quilt.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Xin was a little amused and asked even though he knew the answer.

He had already scanned with his spiritual sense before and knew that Liu Ruoxin was reading the Su Nu Sutra.

"Nothing... nothing. Why are you back?" Liu Ruoxin naturally would not admit it. Her eyes flickered and she changed the subject.

"I promised to come back, so I won't break my promise." Shen Xin smiled, looking at Liu Ruoxin's graceful figure. She had clearly agreed to take a night's rest, but now she was in this state. Wasn't she forcing herself to commit a crime?

"Ah...you're back so late. I'm going to sleep." Liu Ruoxin yawned, turned around and faced Shen Xin with her back.

Shen Xin stepped forward with a smile...

After all, he studied the Su Nu Jing with Liu Ruoxin!

However, Shen Xin was very restrained. After studying for about two hours, they fell asleep.

……

The next day.

morning.

Liu Ruoxin woke up from her sleep. After getting up, she put on her clothes and walked out of the room.

When she arrived in the yard, Liu Ruoxin did not find Shen Xin. She looked for Shen Xin in other rooms but still did not see him.

"Maybe he went out." Although she felt a little disappointed, Liu Ruoxin didn't take it too seriously.

Just then, she heard some noise coming from next door.

Faintly, Liu Ruoxin seemed to hear Shen Xin's voice. She was a little confused, so she simply walked out of the house and went to the next door to see what was going on.

The door next door was open, and Liu Ruoxin stood at the door and looked inside.

She was not mistaken, Shen Xin was indeed inside.

Not only Shen Xin, but also Ji Yaohua, Guo Furong and Xiaoqing were there.

"What are you doing?" Seeing Shen Xin, Liu Ruoxin had nothing to worry about. She walked into the yard and asked Shen Xin.

"I bought this place." Shen Xin looked back at Liu Ruoxin and said with a smile.

Then, he introduced Liu Ruoxin: "This is Ji Yaohua, this is Guo Juxia's daughter Guo Furong, and this is Xiaoqing."

"Brother Shen~" Guo Furong called out in a somewhat coquettish manner.

Obviously, she was not very satisfied with Shen Xin's introduction of herself.

It would be fine to just introduce her as Guo Furong, why add her father?

Shen Xin smiled and reintroduced: "My mistake, this is Guo Furong."

Liu Ruoxin nodded. Of course she knew Guo Juxia's daughter, but Guo Furong didn't know her.

Compared with Guo Furong, Liu Ruoxin cared more about Ji Yaohua who was standing next to Shen Xin.

It’s not just because Ji Yaohua is closer to Shen Xin and has a more intimate relationship with him, but most importantly, Ji Yaohua is beautiful and, relatively speaking, more threatening.

"Ji Yaohua!" Seeing this, Ji Yaohua took the initiative to greet and show goodwill.

Hearing this, Liu Ruoxin retracted her gaze and introduced herself: "Liu Ruoxin."

"Liu Ruoxin, the goddaughter of Wang Zhi from the Western Factory?" Guo Furong exclaimed.

She didn't know Liu Ruoxin, but she had heard of her reputation.

It’s just that it’s not a good reputation!

"That's right." Liu Ruoxin nodded and didn't care.

Then, she turned her gaze to Shen Xin and said, "You are really quick. You have only been in Beijing for a few days and you have already bought a house."

"I will be staying in the capital for a while. It's not good to live in an inn all the time, so I might as well buy a house, which will be closer to you."

Shen Xin explained with a smile: "I was originally planning to move here tomorrow, but this family moved so quickly that they have already moved out, so I might as well move here today."

"You've come just in time. Can you help me clean up?"

"Okay!" Liu Ruoxin originally wanted to refuse, but then she changed her mind and realized that no matter whether she accepted it or not, she and Ji Yaohua would be sisters in the future, and their relationship should not be made too stiff, so she changed her mind and agreed.

However, Liu Ruoxin did not help for too long. When it was afternoon, she said goodbye and left.

She still has a public office to hold, and although it wouldn't be a big deal if she didn't go for a few days given her current status and position, it would still be bad, and she had to tell her adoptive father.

Soon, Liu Ruoxin came to the palace and met her adoptive father.

In a large hall, Wang Zhi sat behind a desk. He was wearing a scarlet robe, his long gray hair was neatly combed, and his face was clean.

After seeing Liu Ruoxin coming, Wang Zhi waved his hand and sent away the other people in the hall.

"It's Ruoxin, what do you want to do with your foster father?"

"Ruoxin wants to ask her adoptive father for a few days off." Liu Ruoxin replied.

"Is it because of Shen Xin?"

"Yes." Liu Ruoxin gritted her teeth and replied.

Wang Zhi was well aware of her relationship with Shen Xin, there was nothing to hide.

However, Shen Xin used to be just a disciple of Ma Dayuan of the Beggar Gang in the Northern Song Dynasty, and his own strength was only average.

But now, Shen Xin is a grandmaster and has the reputation of being the most handsome man in the world.

The more famous and powerful he is, the more likely he is to attract attention and be plotted against. If possible, Liu Ruoxin really doesn't want to admit it.

But she knew that she couldn't hide it from Wang Zhi.

"Anyway, there's nothing to do recently. If you want to rest, then take a few days. But... if you are free in the future, you can bring Shen Xin here to meet your godfather." Wang Zhi said with a smile.

Liu Ruoxin nodded, feeling a little worried.

The Western Factory did not have a good reputation. Although Wang Zhi treated her like his own daughter, Liu Ruoxin did not want Shen Xin to have any connection with him.

Moreover, even if Wang Zhi treated her like his own daughter, he would still plot against Shen Xin and would not have any concerns because of her.

Chapter 258 Visiting Card, Sikong Xing'er

Guo Mansion.

main entrance.

Lin Pingzhi, dressed in black, came here, looked at the gate of Guo's mansion, then turned to look at the ordinary houses on both sides. Lin Pingzhi looked a little surprised.

Even though he had confirmed again and again that this was Guo Juxia's home, Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but have some doubts at this time.

It's nothing, it's really surprising that the home of the famous Guo Juxia is so simple.

Fortunately, after being demystified by Yue Buqun and Jiang Biehe, Lin Pingzhi has developed some immunity to these famous heroes.

After a slight surprise, Lin Pingzhi regained his composure.

He came to the gate of Guo's house and knocked on the old door.

An old voice soon came from the room: "Who is it?"

"Lin Ping came to visit before!" Lin Pingzhi replied.

"Who?"

The man behind the door obviously had not heard of Lin Pingzhi's reputation. Without waiting for Lin Pingzhi to say anything else, he said, "Wait a moment."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Pingzhi heard footsteps that gradually faded away. It was obvious that the other party was going to ask for instructions from the person who could really make the decision in the mansion.

Not long after, footsteps were heard again.

The door opened, and an exquisite and elegant courtyard appeared in Lin Pingzhi's eyes. This was far different from the simplicity displayed outside the Guo Mansion.

There was some surprise in Lin Pingzhi's eyes, but he quickly retracted his gaze and looked at the two people in front of him.

An old man and a middle-aged woman.

Lin Pingzhi's eyes passed over the old man and focused on the middle-aged woman: "I am Lin Pingzhi, nice to meet you, Madam."

"Mr. Lin, you are too polite. I wonder what brings you here?" Mrs. Guo asked with a smile.

"I'm here to deliver a visiting card on behalf of my master." Lin Pingzhi said, taking out a visiting card from his arms and handing it to Mrs. Guo.

"Your young master? Is it Mr. Shen?" Mrs. Guo asked with a smile as she accepted the visiting card.

Lin Pingzhi nodded.

"I wonder why Mr. Shen is looking for my husband?" Mrs. Guo continued to ask.

"I don't know about that."

"So is my daughter doing well with Master Shen?"

"The young master is very good to Miss Guo!" Lin Pingzhi replied.

To be honest, he didn't quite understand why Shen Xin was so nice to Guo Furong. After all, compared to Ji Yaohua and Liu Ruoxin, Guo Furong's appearance was indeed slightly inferior.

"Furong has caused trouble for your Master. I will give this visiting card to Lao Guo. You can tell Master Shen to rest assured."

"Then I'll take my leave first!" Lin Pingzhi nodded, and then said goodbye.
