Chapter 756

"Father, let me accompany them to Nanzhao first. We can talk about the wedding when we return. Since the marriage is already decided, it wouldn't be bad to cultivate our feelings before the wedding!"

Seeing that Lin Tiannan was about to get angry, Lin Yueru hurriedly spoke up to persuade him.

"That will do as well. Your understanding of each other is still lacking, so it's good to wait until your feelings are deeper before getting married!"

Seeing his daughter offer him a way out, Lin Tiannan went along with it. After all, he really couldn't do anything about Lin Fan; if he didn't agree, what else could he do?

"Lin Fan, this is fine, right? You have no more excuses, do you?"

Seeing Lin Tiannan agree, Lin Yueru said to Lin Fan with a beaming smile.

"Since you've both said so, what else can I say? Naturally, it's fine."

"Good. I see it's almost noon; why don't you bring Miss Linger here to have a simple meal at my Lin Family Fort!"

Seeing that Lin Fan was no longer making excuses, Lin Tiannan breathed a sigh of relief and warmly invited Lin Fan to be a guest at the Lin Family Fort.

"Let's go!"

Lin Fan nodded and held Zhao Linger's hand as they followed Lin Tiannan toward the Lin Family Fort. As for Lin Yueru, she ran to Lin Fan's other side and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with him.

"Lin Fan, what martial art were you using when you fought my father earlier? It was so imposing; it felt much more powerful than my family's Seven Absolute Sword Qi!"

"That is called the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Some gifted experts can turn decay into magic, using ordinary moves to display incomparable power. You think your family's Seven Absolute Sword Qi isn't powerful? Watch!"

Lin Fan used his hand as a sword to execute the Seven Absolute Sword Qi. The imposing sword qi shot straight into the clouds, and the thick clouds in the sky were swept away by this sword qi.

"Lin Fan, you mastered the Seven Absolute Sword Qi just by watching my father perform it once?"

Lin Yueru looked at Lin Fan in surprise; it was truly beyond her expectations.

"Is it difficult?"

Lin Fan didn't care. The Seven Absolute Sword Qi wasn't some profound technique, and his comprehension was already maxed out, so naturally, he learned it at a glance.

"It's difficult! I've studied it for over ten years and still don't perform it as well as you did after watching it once!"

Lin Yueru curled her lip. Comparing people to people is infuriating; why is Lin Fan's talent so high?

"Cousin, Uncle!"

The four of them had just walked into the Lin Family Fort when they were stopped by a man's voice.

"Jinyuan, it's you. You're so busy, how do you have time to come to my Lin Family Fort?"

"Cou... Cousin!"

Lin Tiannan greeted Liu Jinyuan warmly. Lin Yueru, however, felt somewhat awkward because she had learned from Lin Fan's diary copy that Liu Jinyuan liked her, so she didn't know how to face him.

In all honesty, she did have a good impression of Liu Jinyuan; after all, he was gentle as jade, always cared for her, and was obedient to her every wish. But she really only viewed Liu Jinyuan as a brother. This sudden change in their family relationship was something she couldn't accept.

"Cousin, eh? Young Master, Miss, it's you two? You know my cousin too?"

Seeing Lin Yueru, Liu Jinyuan couldn't help but smile. Then, his gaze shifted, and he discovered Lin Fan and Zhao Linger standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Lin Yueru, so he asked curiously.

"This is Young Master Lin Fan and his wife Zhao Linger. I have already betrothed Yueru to Lin Fan!"

"So that's how it is. Hmm? Uncle, you said you betrothed Cousin to Young Master Lin, but doesn't he already have a wife?"

Hearing Lin Tiannan's introduction, Liu Jinyuan nodded at first, but after realizing what was said, he looked at Lin Tiannan in disbelief.

"That's right, but as long as a man has ability, having three wives and four concubines is not out of the question!"

Lin Tiannan knew Liu Jinyuan liked Lin Yueru, but not only did Lin Yueru not like the weak Liu Jinyuan, he himself didn't think highly of Liu Jinyuan either.

Firstly, as a martial artist and the leader of the Southern Wu Lin, he was naturally allergic to imperial power and didn't want to get involved with the imperial court. Secondly, he hoped his son-in-law could inherit the Lin Family Fort's martial influence, and Liu Jinyuan undoubtedly lacked that ability.

So, previously, Lin Yueru didn't know Liu Jinyuan's feelings, while Lin Tiannan knew them but deliberately didn't mention them because he didn't want Liu Jinyuan as his son-in-law. ===== CHAPTER 758 =====
