409. Chapter 409: How Did I Offend You? You're So Fierce!

"Is that so?"

Qiao Sheng said, a little surprised.

Cheng Jinyu is fifteen this year; his age is not considered small.

But.

The Martial Scholar is not a title that ordinary people can obtain.

He managed to pass.

It shows he put in effort.

Really not bad.

Cheng Xianglan smiled gently and said, "Hmm, you didn't hear wrong; he passed the Martial Scholar exam. I was originally somewhat opposed, but seeing his hard work, I eventually compromised..."

Without waiting for Qiao Sheng to say anything,

Cheng Xianglan continued, "Originally, Jinyu had Xiao Shitou and the others take the exam too, but each of them didn't go. Speaking of it, their martial skills now aren't inferior to Jinyu's. They didn't take the martial exam, nor the literary exam; I guess they perhaps wanted to take it when you were present..."

Each of them really cares about her!

Qiao Sheng and the others had lunch at Cheng Xianglan's place before leaving.

They hadn't actually planned to have lunch at Cheng Xianglan's, but since she wanted to keep them, they ate and left.

When they were leaving,

Cheng Xianglan handed a few new clothes to Qiao Sheng.

She had made them for her when she was idle before.

Thinking that she could wear them upon returning.

Qiao Sheng didn't decline and accepted them politely.

Leaving here.

Qiao Sheng said to Shi Lin, "Shi Lin, let's wander around..."

Shi Lin asked Qiao Sheng, "Do you want to buy something, or open a shop?"

Hearing that,

Qiao Sheng chuckled and said, "Sir, would you like to guess?"

"Open a shop..."

Shi Lin lightly tapped Qiao Sheng's head and said, "You haven't fully recovered yet; what shop would you open? I forbid it."

He does not allow any further problems with Qiao Sheng's body.

Qiao Sheng replied, "I'm not that weak; I can still do some things. Besides, I'm not the type to handle everything personally, so nothing will go wrong. Moreover, shops in the Imperial Capital are hard to rent, and I don't even know if any are available now; let's keep an eye out, and if one appears, rent it first."

Her words just finished.

Shi Lin opened his mouth and said, "I have two shops; I'll give you one, but on one condition—you must first restore your health before opening a shop."

"That's yours."

Qiao Sheng didn't want it.

Shi Lin raised an eyebrow and said, "You're already my wife, yet you draw such a clear line? Do you want to leave me?"

"No way..."

Qiao Sheng explained.

Shi Lin, without letting her speak, said, "Since that's the case, it's settled then! Let's go home."

Passing by the restaurant owned by Ouyang Yuefeng,

Shi Lin looked inside.

What a coincidence.

He happened to see Ouyang Yuefeng.

He withdrew his gaze.

Shi Lin said nothing; not long after returning home, he found a reason to go out, then came to Ouyang Yuefeng's restaurant to look for him.

At that time, Ouyang Yuefeng was drinking in his usual private dining room.

He suddenly heard that Shi Lin had arrived.

Ouyang Yuefeng pursed his lips and had his subordinate bring him up.

Shi Lin didn't wait for his subordinate to push the door; he kicked it open himself.

At the sight of Ouyang Yuefeng,

Shi Lin immediately sprang into action.

These days he has indeed been with Qiao Sheng every day, but that hasn't made him slack.

He practices martial arts daily.

All for today.

Compared to before, Shi Lin's strikes are much faster, fiercer, and more precise.

Ouyang Yuefeng fell behind after fewer than sixty moves against him.

Not long after,

Shi Lin landed a punch on his face.

Immediately followed by another punch to his stomach.

The blows made Ouyang Yuefeng spit blood.

Shi Lin then stopped.

Ouyang Yuefeng spat out blood, rubbed his face and stomach, and said, "Shi Lin, it's been a long time. Not only is your martial skill stronger than before, but your temper is bigger too. How did I offend you? You're so fierce!"
