Chapter 102: I’m the Weakest Among Us Four
Lin Fengmian suddenly sat up from his half-asleep state, astonished, “Mother, what do you want from me?”
Li Zhuxuan impatiently knocked on the door, “Get up quickly, open the door, your uncle Zhao wants to see you.”
Lin Fengmian replied and hurriedly got up with Xia Yunxi, both of them scrambling to get dressed.
Xia Yunxi was so nervous that she wanted to jump out of the window.
Lin Fengmian quickly pulled Xia Yunxi back as she was about to cry and said with a smile, “Yunxi, what are you afraid of? We’re not thieves, a shy bride has to meet her mother-in-law eventually.”
“But… but…”
Xia Yunxi stammered for a long time, but couldn’t think of anything.
Lin Fengmian grabbed her hand, “Don’t worry, I’m here!”
Xia Yunxi obediently held his hand and shyly followed him to open the door.
“Coming, coming, the door will break if you knock any more.”
Lin Fengmian opened the door and saw Li Zhuxuan standing impatiently outside.
“Why are you so slow, you’re not a big girl…”
Li Zhuxuan said halfway and saw Xia Yunxi hiding behind Lin Fengmian. When she saw her disheveled hair, she understood.
“Good morning, Auntie.”
Xia Yunxi bowed to Li Zhuxuan, her face so red that it was about to drip blood, wishing that she could dig a hole and hide in it.
Fortunately, this era didn’t have strict gender segregation, and the atmosphere was relatively open, without the concept of being drowned in a pig cage.
And these rules didn’t apply to cultivators.
Li Zhuxuan looked at Xia Yunxi and immediately understood, smiling, “What Auntie? Too formal, just call me Aunt.”
“Yunxi, I didn’t know you were here or I would have come to call you later. Did I disturb your rest?”
Lin Fengmian was speechless, “Yes! You disturbed my sleep!”
Li Zhuxuan glared at him, “Who asked you! Yunxi, why don’t you go back to sleep?”
Xia Yunxi quickly shook her head, “No, we were almost awake.”
Lin Fengmian was completely speechless at his mother’s double standard, “Mother, you said Uncle Zhao came to see me?”
Li Zhuxuan remembered the important matter and turned serious, “Your Uncle Zhao and Yazhi came to apologize, they’re waiting in the front hall now.”
Lin Fengmian quickly waved his hand, “That’s unnecessary, me and Zhao Yazhi are impossible, don’t waste your breath, our horoscopes don’t match.”
Li Zhuxuan rolled her eyes, “They are not only here for you, they also want to see your friends.”
Lin Fengmian hummed, “So it’s official business, fine, then we’ll meet them once.”
Li Zhuxuan instructed, “Then go wash up with your friends, we’ll wait for you in the front hall.”
Lin Fengmian nodded and separated from Xia Yunxi to find Wen Qinlin.
Li Zhuxuan didn’t go to the front hall right away, but rushed to the kitchen to ask them to prepare something for Xia Yunxi to replenish her energy.
Whether she could hold a grandchild depended on this girl.
After having a cup of tea, Lin Fengmian and his three friends met Zhao Yucheng and his daughter in the front hall, where the Lin couple accompanied them in casual conversation.
Most of the time, Zhao Yucheng talked with Lin Wencheng, and Li Zhuxuan occasionally chimed in, while Zhao Yazhi remained silent.
Li Zhuxuan didn’t care about her.
She used to hope that the girl would marry her son, but now she wouldn’t even look at her!
This made Zhao Yazhi very unhappy!
In the past, when she came to the Lin family, Li Zhuxuan would be extremely enthusiastic, but today, she didn’t even bother.
This made her feel wronged, what did she do wrong?
Lin Fengmian entered the front hall, greeted everyone, and sat down before smiling politely, “I wonder what brings Uncle Zhao to our door today?”
Zhao Yucheng coughed and smiled, “Ah, Fengmian, today I brought Yazhi to apologize for last night’s incident.”
He glanced at Zhao Yazhi, “Yazhi, hurry up and apologize to your brother Fengmian and your uncle and aunt Lin!”
Lin Fengmian quickly raised his hand to stop her, smiling politely but distantly, “Uncle Zhao is too polite, Yazhi and I just don’t see eye to eye, parting amicably is nothing to apologize for.”
“By the way, this is the cancellation letter I prepared, please accept it, our engagement is over.”
He took the cancellation letter he had just written out of his pocket and handed it to Zhao Yazhi.
Zhao Yazhi was furious, was she that repulsive?
Lin Fengmian, you’re powerful now, you’ve found someone better looking and more powerful than me.
Are you so eager to settle the relationship with me?
Zhao Yucheng’s face showed some difficulty, “Fengmian, don’t be impulsive, you and Yazhi…”
Lin Fengmian shook his head to interrupt him, “Uncle Zhao, it’s impossible between us!”
Zhao Yazhi also got angry and said, “Lin Fengmian, do you really want to be so ruthless? Didn’t you think about my father and my face?”
Lin Fengmian said in disbelief: “I gave you a chance yesterday, but you didn’t take it. Now you want me to consider your face?”
He had seen shameless people before, but never this shameless.
Zhao Yazhi was so angry that her face turned red, and she snatched the document.
Before Lin Fengmian could rejoice, she tore it up in front of both families.
Zhao Yazhi looked proud, “Lin Fengmian, I’m telling you, I will not accept this letter!”
“Either I cancel the engagement, or we can just stay like this. One day when I feel better, I’ll come back and cancel the engagement with you!”
Lin Fengmian was stunned, he had never seen such a shameless person.
When Zhao Yucheng saw them arguing, he was speechless and could only sigh.
This was probably a case of having fate but not destiny, I hope Yazhi won’t regret it in the future.
Seeing the situation getting worse, Zhao Yucheng quickly coughed, “All right, Yazhi, stop it!”
“Fengmian, Yazhi is just talking nonsense, I’ll convince her again. For Uncle Zhao’ sake, don’t take it to heart, we have important things to do.”
Lin Fengmian could only suppress his anger and nodded, “Alright, I’ll give Uncle Zhao a face. Uncle Zhao, feel free to speak.”
Zhao Yucheng nodded, “Fengmian, yesterday you showed extraordinary skills, it seems you’ve learned remarkable skills in these three years.”
“Uncle Zhao won’t beat around the bush, are your friends here all cultivators?”
Lin Fengmian nodded, “My three friends are indeed cultivators.”
Zhao Yucheng’s eyes lit up, “How do their cultivation levels compare to yours?”
Lin Fengmian chuckled, “Uncle Zhao, you’re joking, I’m actually the weakest among the four of us.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yucheng became excited, stood up, and bowed solemnly, “I beg you to look at the people of the city and help us eliminate the demon in Ning City.”
