Chapter 172 - 115

Su Lin never expected Zhao Yanyan to do this so suddenly. Zhao Yanyan was also a little surprised by her own actions, but she quickly calmed down. Since she had already taken the initiative, why be shy? She liked Su Lin very much, didn't she?

Su Lin touched his cheek and grinned mischievously: "Yan Yan, you can't escape now that you've ambushed me. I meant what I said."

Zhao Yanyan instinctively covered her fair, long legs; "Su Lin, don't do anything reckless, this is a store."

Su Lin chuckled and said, "Am I that kind of person? I only bought you clothes; I haven't even bought any for myself yet."

Zhao Yanyan thought about it and realized that Su Lin hadn't bought any clothes yet.

"Sir, the bill has been paid. Would you like this lady to go out now wearing this outfit, or would you like us to cover her up?"

Zhao Yanyan immediately said, "Let's wrap it up. It's still early, I don't want to go out in this outfit."

The waiter nodded and then led Zhao Yanyan to the changing room.

Watching Zhao Yanyan flee with the waiter as if she were running away, Su Lin laughed out loud again.

Since she's been so proactive, I definitely have to give her some kind of response, right? I've been eyeing those long legs for ages.

A few minutes later, Zhao Yanyan came out again, this time changed into her work clothes.

Su Lin pouted and said, "Yan Yan, your work uniform is really ugly. You should change back into your old clothes."

Zhao Yanyan said helplessly, "Do you think I don't want to wear my own clothes? But those people are always distracted when they talk to me, staring at my legs just like you do. I had no choice but to change into long pants. You have no idea how hot it is."

Su Lin thought of the bright sun over the East China Sea and burst out laughing.

"Alright, stop laughing. Let's go pick out some clothes for you."

Su Lin shrugged: "My clothes are very simple, okay? As long as they fit, that's fine."

Zhao Yanyan nodded and said, "You have such a good figure that you look good in anything. You're a typical clothes hanger. I'm not like that. I can't fit into most of the clothes here."

"It's not that I can't wear it, it's just that it's too short and it feels really awkward to wear."

Su Lin could understand Zhao Yanyan's troubles, but unfortunately, he couldn't empathize with her.

"Alright, you should be grateful that you have clothes to wear."

The two went to the men's clothing section.

Men's clothing is much simpler, with all sorts of formal wear, basically just different colors, but the styles are all pretty much the same.

Zhao Yanyan picked up a white coat and held it up in front of Su Lin. Su Lin looked disgusted and said, "This coat is so thick, it's going to make me die of heat."

"Pfft! You should be secretly happy. At least the hotel has air conditioning, so you don't really feel hot. In winter, we girls can only wear these kinds of dresses, and they have to be bare-shouldered and backless. That's when it's really cold."

"Don't move, let me see if it's suitable."

Su Lin stretched out his hand: "You'll know whether it fits or not once you put it on. Quickly, help me change."

"Oh my, you think you're the emperor now?" Zhao Yanyan said angrily.

"Tsk... You think I'd trade my current life for the emperor's?" Su Lin scoffed.

He's living a very carefree life now. Being an emperor is very dangerous; you can't trust anyone except those right beside you.

"That's true, you have two women now, and you're about to seduce another one. Aren't you quite pleased with yourself?"

Su Lin looked at Zhao Yanyan and said, "Aren't you getting married?"

"Hmph, I saw right through you a long time ago. Marriage is out of the question, right? You're always looking for something new and never wanting to get rid of the old. You want to bring all the types of people you like home, even if they're just decorative objects."

"Cough cough cough, it's not that exaggerated. I have absolutely no intention of being a decorative vase," Su Lin said confidently.

"No wonder Xiaoyu is so capable. I used to think she was a delicate flower, but seeing how she handles things at the company really impressed me," Zhao Yanyan said with admiration.

She then pulled Su Lin to the mirror; "You look pretty handsome, don't you think?"

Su Lin laughed and said, "If you think it looks good, that's enough. Your aesthetic sense is definitely not wrong."

Zhao Yanyan shook her head: "Su Lin, with that face of yours, I don't know how many girls you're going to ruin."

"That's not necessarily true. Just you wait and see. Qin Jiuyue probably won't give me a friendly look tonight," Su Lin said with a smile.

"Ah! Why doesn't she give you a nice look?" Zhao Yanyan asked, somewhat surprised.

Su Lin shook his head: "It's probably because we're on different sides."

"Different factions?"

Su Lin didn't continue speaking, but looked at herself in the mirror and said with satisfaction, "This one will do, waiter, swipe your card."

"Yes, sir!!"

The waiter then came up to Su Lin to take the card.

Su Lin remarked that shopping in such luxury stores was indeed a wonderful experience.

These waiters have excellent eyesight; they know when to stand by and when to offer their services.

"Su Lin, aren't you going to look at the others?"

"Some things can be understood at a glance; there's no need to look at anything else. I trust your first instinct."

"Hehe, okay then, I'll buy this set."

After paying, the two didn't look at any other clothes and went downstairs directly.

Back in the car, Zhao Yanyan noticed that Su Lin was hesitant to drive. She looked at him with some confusion and asked, "Why aren't you driving? Is something wrong?"

Su Lin nodded: "There's one important thing that hasn't been done yet. We'll start once it's done."

"Oh, what's up?"

Su Lin's gaze toward Zhao Yanyan grew increasingly dangerous. Just as Zhao Yanyan realized something was wrong and tried to back away, Su Lin's hand had already gripped her head. "You stole a kiss from me earlier, isn't it my turn to kiss you back now?"

"Su Lin... Waaah..."

Meanwhile, on a small hill in a nature reserve at the junction of the East China Sea and Linhai, a young man in his early twenties was standing in front of a pile of jars and pots.

"Every day is just brewing medicine, brewing medicine. When will we be able to get down the mountain? Sigh, it's been three years since I've been down the mountain. I wonder what the world is like down there."

"Forget it, let's just brew the medicine, otherwise the old man will throw another tantrum."

Just then, a pebble suddenly shot out from the thatched hut, heading straight for Xiao Chen's face.

Xiao Chen sensed the danger and took two steps back: "Master, you've got some real strength. If you hit me on the head, I'd be dead."

"Hmph, you've studied medicine with me for ten years and martial arts for ten years. If you can't even dodge a small pebble, you might as well be dead." Wang Yannian walked up to Xiao Chen, holding a pipe in one hand and a yellowed envelope in the other.

"Master, when will I be able to go down the mountain? You told me it would take three years, and now three years have passed." Xiao Chen grumbled somewhat dissatisfied.

Of course, he was just muttering. His Baguazhang had reached the level of a grandmaster, but in front of Wang Yannian, he was like a child, being thoroughly beaten by him in various ways. So even though he had all sorts of slander in his heart, he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Abstract got beaten up, are you cursing me in your heart again?"

"How could that be? Master, am I that kind of person?"

"Heh! I know you better than anyone. I saw right through you the moment I picked you up," Wang Yannian said calmly.

"Uh... okay, Master is amazing."

"Hmph, trying to get down the mountain?"

Xiao Chen nodded: "Yes, I haven't seen the outside world for three years."

"The outside world is dangerous, you know?"

"Master, you said there aren't many people in the entire Xia Kingdom that I can't afford to offend. With you backing me up, what do I have to be afraid of?" Xiao Chen said confidently.

Wang Yannian sighed softly, "I'm afraid that when you go down the mountain, you'll encounter those few people you can't afford to mess with."

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. If I knew I couldn't beat them, I definitely wouldn't make enemies with them," Xiao Chen said confidently.

He could already sense that Wang Yannian was going to let him go down the mountain, and Xiao Chen felt a surge of excitement.

A wonderful and happy life is coming.

He would soon be able to see the beautiful women and bustling cities of the East China Sea.

"Sigh! Your heart is no longer here; it has long since flown off to somewhere else."

"Fine..."

Wang Yannian picked up the yellowed new envelope and handed it to Xiao Chen: "Xiao Chen, I once saved the life of Li Weifeng, the head of the Li family, in my younger days."

"Later, I met Li Weifeng and we became good friends. Then we decided to arrange a marriage between our children."

"Originally, this marriage should have been arranged by my son, but as you know, I, Wang Yannian, have been single for many years and have no children, so this marriage can only fall to you."

Xiao Chen was immediately overwhelmed with frustration; "Master, you actually arranged a marriage for me when we were children? Are you kidding me?"

Wang Yannian chuckled and said, "Little Chen, you don't need to worry. As far as I know, the Li family is incredibly wealthy. They are one of the four most powerful families in Donghai City. If you become their son-in-law, you'll be living a life of luxury. Just remember to show some respect to your teacher when the time comes."

"Moreover, as far as I know, the girl from the Li family born in the 1970s or 1980s is very beautiful and graceful. You should be grateful that you can find a wife like this."

Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "I'm not going. I'd rather die than go. Master, the girls in these kinds of arranged marriages are usually ugly. I'm not going to suffer like that. If you want to get married, you go. I'm not going. I'm not going no matter what."

Wang Yannian smiled and said, "It's alright if you don't want to go. I've lived on this mountain for ten years, and I can stay for another ten or eight years without any problem. Xiao Chen, if you don't want to go, you can stay on the mountain with me."
