Chapter 1622
From Lin Shiyin's angle, she naturally could not see Lin Xian'er's posturing.
She could only say helplessly:
"Sister, you misunderstand me; it was Xiaoyun who wanted me to cook personally to entertain Young Master Gu."
Long Xiaoyun was in Gu Hanyuan's arms at this moment, so she naturally saw Lin Xian'er's little actions.
Although she couldn't quite understand the meaning behind them, she subconsciously felt displeased.
She made a "humph" sound and said:
"It's a pity I've lost my appetite now. Master, take me to practice martial arts."
Lin Shiyin frowned slightly and scolded:
"Xiaoyun!"
Long Xiaoyun now had Gu Hanyuan to back her up and was afraid of no one; she turned her face away directly to express her dissatisfaction.
Lin Xian'er acted soft and weak, feigning embarrassment:
"Sister, did I disturb you?"
Lin Shiyin pulled her hand apologetically and said:
"How could that be? Xiaoyun has been spoiled; don't take it to heart."
Lin Xian'er took the opportunity to skip over the matter of Long Xiaoyun.
Her beautiful eyes lifted quietly, and while looking at Gu Hanyuan, she lowered her head with a charming and rosy face.
That shy, stealing glance and the blushing, coquettish appearance acted out the posture of a shy young girl with great spirit.
She asked shyly:
"Sister, can you introduce this young master to me?"
Lin Shiyin felt a flash of realization upon hearing this.
She thought that Lin Xian'er might have taken a fancy to Gu Hanyuan.
Such a guess seemed perfectly natural.
After all, even she had been captivated by Gu Hanyuan's charm several times, and the place that had been accidentally bumped into earlier even had a burning illusion from time to time.
It was perfectly normal for the young and romantic Lin Xian'er to fall for Gu Hanyuan.
For some reason, Lin Shiyin felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart.
It wasn't that she had fallen for Gu Hanyuan and was jealous of Lin Xian'er.
Rather, it was an instinctive sense of competition in front of a high-quality member of the opposite sex.
Originally, Gu Hanyuan only had eyes for her and Long Xiaoyun.
Now that Lin Xian'er had suddenly entered the scene and wanted to snatch Gu Hanyuan away.
Lin Shiyin inevitably felt a bit uncomfortable.
However, after all, she and Gu Hanyuan had no special relationship.
She quickly suppressed that strange feeling in her heart.
She smiled gently:
"This is Young Master Gu, the 'Three Absolute Sword Immortal'."
Lin Xian'er's beautiful eyes shone brilliantly, and she asked with full admiration:
"Is it the Young Master Gu who, in a fit of rage for a beauty at the Southern Shaolin Assembly, and who suppressed all the heroes at the Xixia marriage proposal, caused Princess Yinchuan to marry him?"
Lin Xian'er deliberately brought up Gu Hanyuan's deeds related to romantic love.
Yet she ignored the more widely spread and influential events, such as his solo intrusion into the Qing Palace to kill Dorgon and Oboi, and his earth-shattering battle with Wutian.
Her intentions were almost self-evident.
And immediately after, she used that soft and winding voice to say with a hint of shyness:
"This young woman admires heroes the most; Young Master Gu is precisely the greatest hero in the world today."
This was no different from explicitly stating that she liked Gu Hanyuan.
Gu Hanyuan merely said indifferently upon hearing this:
"Miss Lin, you flatter me. I merely did some things that should be done; I am not worthy of the name of hero."
Gu Hanyuan's cold response made Lin Shiyin and Long Xiaoyun feel very good.
They had seen too many men with famous reputations who would fawn over Lin Xian'er upon seeing her.
Some could even be described as making a fool of themselves.
