"Of course, haven't you heard that time flies in the mountains? And time flies even faster in cultivation. A year passes in the blink of an eye."
After listening, Qin Jiuyue said dejectedly, "Well, there's nothing I can do then. I promised Grandpa I'd be back before this afternoon. Su Lin, what do we do next?"
Su Lin swept Qin Jiuyue up in his arms and carried her upstairs; "There are still two hours left, of course we should do something fun."
"No...no, I just finished resting."
Seeing Qin Jiuyue's shy expression, Su Lin smiled.
It wasn't until almost lunchtime that Su Lin carried Qin Jiuyue downstairs.
Qin Jiuyue punched Su Lin's chest a few times and said, "It's all your fault. How am I supposed to see my grandfather like this? He'll definitely find out."
"Hehe, so what if he figured it out? The old man has been through it all; he knows more than any of us," Su Lin laughed.
"Go to hell! My grandfather isn't like you. He took over the family early and has always been concerned about it. My second grandfather, on the other hand, is always so gloomy and I don't like him."
Hearing Qin Jiuyue's words, Su Lin nodded. Qin Desen was just like that; he spent his whole life thinking about seizing power and taking over.
However, he never succeeded in his lifetime.
He had originally planned to seize the perfect opportunity to cause Qin Deshu to suffer a stroke, and then take over the position, but he failed.
As a result, he is still feeling frustrated and unfulfilled.
"Su Lin, put me down, I can walk by myself."
Su Lin nodded and put Qin Jiuyue down. Qin Jiuyue rolled her eyes at Su Lin and said, "I'm going to wash my hair and then go home."
"Okay!"
This time, Su Lin did not disturb Qin Jiuyue. A dozen minutes later, Qin Jiuyue came out of the bathroom.
"Su Lin, help me blow-dry my hair."
"Why?!"
"Hmph, if it weren't for you, would I have been able to wash my hair? All that sweating is thanks to you."
After saying that, she threw a hairdryer at Su Lin, who caught it with one hand. "Why is Sister Xiaoyue so temperamental? Be careful not to get a sore throat."
"It's all because you deliberately provoked me. If you hadn't provoked me, would I have been so angry?" Qin Jiuyue rolled her eyes at Su Lin.
Su Lin tossed the hairdryer aside: "It's just drying your hair, what do you need a hairdryer for? Watch me."
After saying that, Su Lin held Qin Jiuyue's head in his hands, his inner strength surged, and a warm breath appeared in his palms. He stroked Qin Jiuyue's hair back and forth a couple of times, and her hair was completely dry.
Qin Jiuyue's face was filled with disbelief: "This...this is the Yangyan Needle? It's amazing! The internal energy is even carrying heat."
Su Lin laughed and said, "You can do it too. Don't forget that you've learned Ice Soul. If you practice this needle technique to my level, you can freeze a small pool with one palm strike."
"That's amazing!"
"Of course, Xiaoyu and Xiaowan's techniques are not as advanced as yours."
"Then why don't you let them learn it?" Qin Jiuyue pressed.
Su Lin sighed and said, "This acupuncture technique is not suitable for them, mainly because their constitutions are not compatible. Otherwise, do you think I wouldn't want to give it to them?"
"Whoa!!"
"Alright, my hair's dry now, let's get going."
Qin Jiuyue hugged Su Lin's arm and said, "Then let's go."
Su Lin drove Qin Jiuyue to the Qin family home.
In the car, Qin Jiuyue kept telling Su Lin about the Qin family, especially Qin Deshu's temperament and hobbies.
Su Lin smiled slightly upon hearing this. He knew Qin Deshu's temperament better than Qin Jiuyue did.
This is an old man bound by his family.
If Qin Deshu hadn't taken over the family business earlier and instead pursued his own interests, he might have gone much further.
He spent his whole life scheming for his family, but of course, his love for his children was genuine.
Most of the time, however, there is nothing that can be done.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the Qin Family Manor.
Looking at the magnificent gate before him, Su Lin exclaimed, "I didn't look closely last time, but today I realized that your Qin family is no smaller than the Li family, and the decoration is even more luxurious. This gate must be made of mahogany."
Qin Jiuyue said calmly, "We are the number one family in the East Sea, after all. We can't be surpassed by the second-ranked family."
3.3 Su Lin nodded; "That makes sense!"
Just then, Qin Gong came out from the inner courtyard. When he saw Su Lin and Qin Jiuyue, he immediately smiled like an old eunuch: "Little Yueyue, Su Lin, you've finally arrived. Master has sent me to see you several times."
Upon hearing this, Su Lin apologized, "That was my fault. I went to my dad's place and was delayed for a while."
Qinggong shook his head and said, "It's alright, it's alright. Today is a family dinner, being a few minutes late is nothing."
"Okay! Then please show us the way."
Qin Jiuyue, supporting Su Lin's arm, said, "Butler Qin has other matters to attend to. I'll take you there."
Qin Gong saw Su Lin being pulled away by Qin Jiuyue and gave a wry smile.
Girls are indeed more outgoing; Qin Jiuyue and Su Lin have only known each other for a short time, yet they're already so close.
However, he didn't care. He had seen this kind of situation before and was already used to it.
Qin Jiuyue led Su Lin into the inner hall of the inner courtyard.
Su Lin saw an old man sitting quietly at a square table, waiting alone.
It really was a family dinner; there wasn't a single unnecessary person.
Qin Jiuyue, pulling Su Lin along, called out as she ran, "Grandpa, I brought Su Lin!"
185 Su Lin, when do you plan to marry Xiao Yue Liang? [Please subscribe]
Qin Deshu opened his eyes only after hearing Qin Jiuyue's voice.
Qin Jiuyue pulled Su Lin to stand in front of him.
Qin Deshu looked Su Lin up and down: "You're here, have a seat."
Su Lin and Qin Jiuyue sat down.
Qin Deshu glanced at Su Lin, then said seriously, "Su Lin, when do you plan to marry Xiao Yue Liang?"
"Well...."
Qin Deshu's words stunned Su Lin. He had imagined countless things Qin Deshu might say, but none of them were what he was about to hear.
Caught completely off guard, Su Lin could only stand there, speechless.
Qin Jiuyue glared at Qin Deshu: "Grandpa, what are you saying? Su Lin and I haven't reached that point yet. He's only eighteen, eighteen, okay? He's not even the legal marriage age in the country yet."
Qin Deshu choked, but seemed somewhat helpless.
He's siding with his elbow to the outside, a classic case of siding with the outside.
Doesn't she know she's helping her?
"Little Moon, you....."
"Grandpa, can we handle things between Su Lin and me ourselves?" Qin Jiuyue said pleadingly.
Qin Deshu looked at Su Lin; "You brat, you know your own mess, so I don't want to say more. But I have one thing to say: the marriage must be with my little moon. If you agree, I'll accept you as my grandson-in-law. If you don't agree, I'll arrange a new marriage for little moon tomorrow. How do you want to choose?"
Su Lin said with a wry smile, "Grandpa, do I even have a choice?"
02 "Who's your grandpa? Who are you calling grandpa?"
"Didn't you say you wanted me to marry Sister Xiaoyue? Okay, then I'll still call you Grandpa."
Qin Deshu quickly stopped him: "No... just call me Grandpa. I'm quite happy to have a grandmaster like you as a grandson out of nowhere."
Su Lin looked at Qin Jiuyue beside him; "Has he always been like this?"
Qin Jiuyue shook her head: "He's like this in private, he's never like this normally."
"I knew it, what a fine head of the family."
"What are you whispering about? Xiaoyue, what rules did I tell you?" Qin Deshu glared at Qin Jiuyue and asked.
Qin Jiuyue stuck out her tongue, then looked at Su Lin and said, "Su Lin wanted to talk to me."
Su Lin was somewhat helpless, thinking that Qin Deshu would lecture him, but Qin Deshu simply shut up.
He looked at Su Lin and said, "You told me yourself that you wanted to marry our little moon. I didn't force you. If other families come to cause trouble, Su Lin, you have to handle it yourself. Otherwise, it will only take two years at most. Our little moon will still be in demand."
Su Lin nodded; "Don't worry, Grandpa, I will definitely keep my word."
Qin Jiuyue asked softly, "Su Lin, are you really going to marry me? What about Xiao Wan and Xiao Yu?"
Su Lin laughed and said, "It's rare that Sister Xiaoyue is still thinking about them at this time. I said I would marry you, but I didn't say I wouldn't marry them. I'll just hold a wedding and bring you all home."
Qin Jiuyue covered her mouth. "You can do that?"
But seeing Su Lin's serious expression, she knew that Su Lin really thought that way and would do it.
No wonder Su Lin agreed so readily; he had already thought it through.
"Do you two have so many secrets to share? Is it rude of you to leave this old man here like this?"
