Chapter 355
Guan Xingran was more than intrigued by her appearance yesterday. As soon as he walked into the restaurant, he saw the girl floating down. She smiled like a fairy who graced the world with her presence, which was the reason he asked to share a table with her. With his identity as the Young Master of the Jade Sword Villa, his suave appearance and extraordinary skills, there were few women in this area that remained unaffected by his charms.
Upon hearing her say such a thing, Guan Xingran started to exclaim, "With how enchanting Lady Huang is, how can there not be someone who adores you? That will only be the case if they are blind!"
Queyin, who scorned and pouted to the point of resembling a pufferfish, thought to herself, perhaps you are the blind one!
Lin Feilu smiled shyly before she turned her head towards Lin Ting. Her Imperial brother was looking at her with a complicated and amused gaze as she silently gave him a wink.
The smile in Lin Ting's eyes was becoming more obvious by the second, so he shook his head and played along with his sister's tricks.
Lin Feilu didn't have to exert much effort to deal with a person like Queyin— just a few words could make her heart attack relapse. Teasing her along the way was fun and it made the entire journey quite entertaining.
At noon, when they stopped for a break, Lin Ting quietly spoke to Lin Feilu, "If you don't like them, we can just travel separately; you don't have to waste your energy on that lady."
Lin Feilu took a bite of her beef jerky as she retorted, "She accused me of being shameless yesterday."
Lin Ting's usually gentle expression suddenly became slightly angered. His skin was already pale, so the redness on his neck was pronounced when he was angry. He spoke in a low voice, "This situation is really unreasonable. It's clear that Guan Xingran was ungentlemanly in his conduct. I haven't even talked to them about it yet, and she dares to bare her fangs?!"
Seeing that he was furious, Lin Feilu quickly smoothed his hair, "Oh, it's okay. I'm quite happy about teasing her. Don't you think she looks like a fried parrot when angry?"
Her metaphor amused Lin Ting before he shook his head and patted her head, "If you've had enough fun, then there's no need to entangle yourself with Guan Xingran anymore. That man does not harbor any good intentions."
Lin Feilu smiled and nodded, "Okay."
In the evening, the group arrived at Yinzhou City, which was only half a day's journey away from Jinling City. Jinling and Yinzhou were separated by a strip of water that was known as the Jinyin River. Because it was close to Jinling, the place was not very prosperous, and the atmosphere around the lake was chaotic. There were also a lot of warriors with swords who frequently travelled the area as well.
The words from Guan Xingran's mouth in the afternoon finally gave Lin Feilu a general impression of the martial arts in this world.
Of course, Mr. Jin Yong wrote no such things in his novels, but the area was also keen on the segregation of the orthodox from the unorthodox. They also have a list of heroes in the arena, which was updated every year as it was made up of the most accomplished martial artists in the arena.
Guan Xingran said a series of names and Lin Feilu had never heard any of them, but she keenly caught a surname— Ji.
