Chapter 451: The Sorrowful Ying Yinman

"Alright, we'll talk about the rest later. As for the matter of Ehuang and Nüying, Moon Goddess, do you think that if I truly want a certain woman, there is anyone in heaven or on earth who can run away?"

Lin Fan shook his head. He didn't like the feeling of forcing things; otherwise, what would it have mattered if he had forcibly taken Lin Shiyin back then? But that had no meaning. Was he really lacking one or two women?

"Brother Fan is right. Let's eat lunch first!"

Huang Rong nodded, then began to serve the dishes with Azhu and the others.

"What did you say? Young Master Lin has actually already left?"

At the same time, Ying Yinman had already received the news that Lin Fan had left Xianyang.

After learning from Lin Fan's diary that she still had such a ruthless brother, she had suffered from insomnia, single-mindedly wanting to find a way to deal with Hu Hai.

But she was only a princess; although she was deeply loved by Ying Zheng, she had no power under her command, nor did she have any strength of her own. She didn't know how she could kill Hu Hai.

It wasn't until the sky was bright that Ying Yinman finally fell into a hazy sleep.

But she didn't expect that when she woke up, her subordinates would tell her that Lin Fan had already left.

"Young Master Lin, am I, Yinman, not worth your lingering? You actually left without even saying goodbye?"

Ying Yinman sat by the window and sighed with some sorrow.

"Who has provoked our Princess Yangzi to sigh? How about I have them captured and brought back for you to deal with as you please?"

A majestic voice came from the doorway, and then a tall man wearing a crown walked in.

"Father, why are you eavesdropping on people's conversations!"

Ying Yinman stood up to greet him, took Ying Zheng's arm, and acted coquettishly.

"Your voice was too loud and your sorrow too thick; it would have been impossible for me not to hear it!"

Ying Zheng looked at his precious daughter and rarely cracked a joke.

"Father, you're mocking your daughter! I am not as sorrowful as you say!"

Ying Yinman didn't expect that she had just sighed once, and it had happened to be heard by her father.

"Yinman, do you have someone in your heart?"

Ying Zheng then asked with a serious expression.

Ying Yinman didn't know how to answer for a moment. Had she really fallen in love with Lin Fan? Was she?

"Yinman, Yinman!"

Seeing that Ying Yinman not only didn't answer his question but instead fell into a daze, Ying Zheng couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Ah, Father, yes!"

This matter could not be avoided, so Ying Yinman simply admitted it directly.

"Which family's young master is it? The Wang family's, or the Meng family's?"

Ying Zheng nodded; it seemed he hadn't been wrong. Yinman really did have someone in her heart.

"Neither. Actually, it is the Master Tianji Young Master, Lin Fan!"

Ying Yinman hesitated again and again, but finally told Ying Zheng shyly.

"So it was him. The Shadow Secret Guards reported back earlier that you went to the Welcoming Guest Tower to see him yesterday. Could it be that after just one meeting, my Princess Yangzi has already fallen?"

Ying Zheng naturally knew who Lin Fan was and also knew that he had come to Xianyang, but he hadn't expected that he would steal Yinman's heart.

"Yinman would not dare to deceive Father. As the saying goes, a young girl admires a talented man. Ever since I heard of the Master Tianji Young Master's deeds, I have felt a longing in my heart. Although yesterday was the first time I met Young Master Lin, after returning, I found that Young Master Lin's face would appear before my eyes from time to time. Just now, upon learning the news of Young Master Lin's departure, I suddenly felt empty inside, and only then did I realize that I had fallen in love with him!"

Ying Yinman recalled the situation of meeting Lin Fan yesterday while recounting her feelings.

"Since that is the case, have him come to me to ask for your hand. As long as he can pass my assessment, I can fulfill your wishes!"

Ying Zheng thought of Lin Fan single-handedly defeating an army of 300,000 and felt that having such a talent as his son-in-law wouldn't be bad.

Fusu's personality was too weak; Ying Zheng was still somewhat worried about handing the Great Qin over to him. But if Fusu were assisted by Lin Fan, it would be different. Lin Fan was not only powerful in martial arts but also decisive in killing, which just happened to make up for Fusu's shortcomings of having too much benevolence and not enough dominance.

"Father, he is a divine dragon soaring in the nine heavens; he will not stay for the sake of a single cloud, much less bow his head for one. If I ask him to come to you to ask for my hand, that would be asking him to bow his head to you. He will not do that, so I am destined to have no fate with him!"

Having read all of Lin Fan's diaries, Ying Yinman understood Lin Fan's personality and naturally knew what an arrogant person he was; he would not bow his head for her.

"What? Scoundrel! Since that is the case, then forget it. My daughter cannot be easily given to him, can she? Yinman, you are a princess of the Great Qin; you must be reserved. A woman who throws herself at a man will not be valued by him!"

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he left. His daughter was absolutely not allowed to be so unreserved. Since Lin Fan wouldn't come to ask for her hand, he wouldn't take the initiative to marry Yinman off.

"Continue the journey!"

Lin Fan's side had already finished lunch and set off again with the women.

The Night Shining Jade Lion, the Claw Yellow Flying Lightning, and the Cloud Treading Black Horse could all travel a thousand miles a day. The distance from the Qin State to the Han State was no more than four hundred kilometers, so if Lin Fan and his group hurried, they might be able to reach the Han State before dusk.

However, the road was treacherous and the mountain paths were rugged, so even though Lin Fan and his group hurried, they still couldn't reach Xinzheng before dark.

But Lin Fan was not in a hurry. If they couldn't reach it today, then they would tomorrow; he wasn't in a rush anyway.

So, after dark, Lin Fan brought the women back to the small world for dinner.

"Lin Fan, didn't you say you had two things to do in the Great Qin? The first was to see Ying Zheng, and the second was to see the beauties of the Hundred Schools of Thought? You've seen quite a few beauties, but you've headed straight for the Han State. So, do you not intend to see Ying Zheng?"

During dinner, Lin Chaoying suddenly asked Lin Fan.

"Naturally not. I intend to see him when I leave the Great Qin."

Lin Fan didn't hide it and told the women his plan directly.

"Why do you want to see him last?"

Now the women were also curious and cast their gazes toward Lin Fan.

"You'll know when the time comes. I'll keep you in suspense for now!"

However, Lin Fan had no intention of explaining and just smiled mysteriously.

"Telling only half the story, you are too detestable!"

The women all rolled their eyes at Lin Fan in dissatisfaction. The four women of the Yin-Yang Sect looked at the harmonious scene of Lin Fan and the others and couldn't help but look at each other. Were they redundant?

"Lin Fan, have you tricked these four beauties into giving you their hearts? Do you need to arrange for them to serve you in bed tonight?"

Since Lin Fan was unwilling to say, Lin Chaoying asked about another matter.

"Hmm, just arrange for Yan Fei. As for Moon Goddess and the others, arrange separate rooms for them!"

Lin Fan sized up the four women, who all had different expressions, and made a decision.

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Moon Goddess breathed a sigh of relief, Da Siming felt somewhat disappointed, and Yan Fei was somewhat happy. Only Shao Siming, with her veil covering her face, had an unreadable expression.

"I... will also go!" ===== CHAPTER 453 =====
