Chapter 285

【Mount Huashan is in Shanzhou, so I can only wait a while before going, but Mount Hengshan is in Jinzhou】

【I had planned to get the "Buddha's Divine Palm" secret manual first, then go to Mount Hengshan to see Yilin, but I didn't expect the Hengshan Sect to also take part in this operation to suppress the Jiaodiyu Sect】

【And Yilin is right there in the group】

【I caught a glimpse of her from afar yesterday — the little Miss with her shaven head is quite cute】

Her appearance is stunningly beautiful, her temperament clean and pure, just like a heavenly maiden from the Fomen sect.

Shanzhou, Mount Huashan.

"Ha, he didn't forget me, he's coming to Mount Huashan soon!" Yue Lingshan was overjoyed.

Ever since she heard Jiang Sishui say he'd come see her, one of the "Four Beauties of Xiaoao," Yue Lingshan had been thrilled.

But once she calmed down, she couldn't help but start worrying.

Worried that Jiang Sishui had only mentioned it in passing and hadn't really taken it to heart at all.

After all, the beauties crammed inside his head are far too many!

Yue Lingshan didn't think she had any advantage.

Though she was bright and adorable, Jiang Sishui wasn't exactly short on that type around him.

Whether it was Huang Rong or Miss Nangong, both were the same.

Even the cold and heartless Flower Fairy, once her frozen heart was thawed, had a cute side too.

So Yue Lingshan couldn't help but start feeling anxious, afraid of being forgotten.

Now that Jiang Sishui had mentioned her again, Yue Lingshan's heart instantly settled back into her stomach.

At that moment, she seemed to see the scene of herself winning a prize.

The young girl's face lit up with smiles, her thoughts wandering, and she even began to fantasize about what reward would be best.

Beside her, Ning Zhongze watched her daughter's reaction and sighed inwardly.

Rewards are certainly good, but they come at a price.

Still, Ning Zhongze didn't try to dissuade her.

Because it would be useless.

Jiang Sishui was someone she couldn't stop, and this daughter of hers…

Though Yue Lingshan was naive and schemeless, she wasn't a fool — she couldn't possibly not know what Jiang Sishui coming to Mount Huashan meant.

Under such circumstances, she could still laugh so carelessly, which meant she had already made her peace with it.

So what good would it do for Ning Zhongze to say more?

……

Jinzhou, Yanxia City.

When Yilin was abducted last night, it happened in complete silence — none of the Hengshan Sect members noticed.

When she returned this morning, it wasn't even late; no one had even started the morning lesson yet.

So upon seeing Yilin, none of them realized that so much had actually happened to her.

????????? Please give flowers??????????

And since they didn't ask, Yilin didn't say anything either, to avoid worrying her martial aunts and senior sisters.

And so a day passed.

Yilin suddenly realized that today her mind was unsettled, drifting off again and again.

And what she thought about while drifting off was, unmistakably, "Big Brother Jiang" who had saved her last night.

This discovery left Yilin both shy and ashamed, with a tiny bit of fear and sweetness.

Her heart was a tangled mix of feelings.

Suddenly seeing what Jiang Sishui had written in his diary, Yilin was first startled: "He's seen me before?"

"Ah, right, he lives at the Yanxia Shanzhuang."

"Yesterday we gathered at the Yanxia Shanzhuang to discuss matters, so it's no surprise he saw me."

Yilin suddenly understood.

But then, she furrowed her brow again.

Because everywhere Jiang Sishui passed, anyone whose name he called got sent off to Mantuo Shanzhuang — so toward her, did he only want to take a look?

Though Yilin was indeed simple, she wasn't completely clueless.

Her young heart couldn't help but pound wildly, and a surge of worry rose up.

If Jiang Sishui wanted to take her away, what should she do?

She had absolutely no power to resist!

Like that flower-picking thief last night — if she was lucky, she might run into a chivalrous hero to save her.

But if it were Jiang Sishui instead, with his strength, who could possibly stop him if he forced his way?

At this thought, Yilin couldn't help but clench her small fists tight.

For no reason at all, she suddenly thought of "Big Brother Jiang" from last night…

An indescribable feeling welled up in her heart, leaving her so choked up she panicked.

【Yilin is naive and adorable, sweet and lovely, just ignorant of the world, easy to be deceived】

【To prevent her from ending up like in the original, with a tragic fate, saving her from misery is my bounden duty】

【But how to pursue her is a delicate matter】

【Though Yilin is a woman of the cloth, her mind is simple, and she's at the age of first awakening to love — winning her heart isn't hard】

【After much thought, I decided to walk the path of the original Linghu Chong, leaving Linghu Chong with no path left】

【That is — the hero saves the beauty~】

【What? Not that much of a coincidence?】

【If there's no opportunity, I'll create one!】

【Where there's a will, there's always a way】

【And so, I……】

Below is a series of plans by Jiang Sishui.

316 Ning Zhongze: Linghu Chong, what exactly did you do?

Manjueluo Shanzhuang.

Seeing Jiang Sishui write a long, flowing passage in his diary, with no small hint of smugness between the lines, Huang Rong's big eyes immediately curved into crescents with laughter.

Sure enough, what had been predicted happened.

After finishing the diary yesterday, Jiang Sishui had come to find her, asking Huang Rong to cooperate in putting on a good show of "the hero saving the beauty."

And the target was none other than Yilin.

Huang Rong pretended to decline a few times, then agreed.

And thus came the scene of last night.

Jiang Sishui disguised himself as a flower-picking thief, Huang Rong stepped in to rescue, then the two of them fought and fought until they vanished, and finally Jiang Sishui went back to claim the "fruits of victory."

The plan was simple, yet under normal circumstances, it would have worked very well.

Unfortunately, Yilin was not in that category.

Because Yilin was also a holder of a diary copy!

Even if Yilin was fooled for the moment, as long as Jiang Sishui later mentioned the matter in the diary, then his entire plan would become an "open hand" to her.

In other words, all of Jiang Sishui's scheming would in the end backfire on himself.

However, Huang Rong had carefully analyzed it — although this matter could not be hidden from Yilin, there was still a possibility of success for Jiang Sishui.

Because Yilin was not the sort of girl who would quibble over every little thing.

So, as long as Jiang Sishui performed well enough, even if Yilin learned the truth afterward, she would not bear a grudge over having been deceived.

Today Huang Rong had specifically gone to ask Houjian about it, and Houjian had repeated the two's conversation word for word without missing a thing.

The moment Huang Rong heard it, she knew things were pretty much settled.

……

At the same time, the women were all muttering to themselves about how shameless Jiang Sishui was.

To chase girls, he'd resorted to such underhanded tricks as swindling and deceiving.

She's still a little nun innocent of the ways of the world!

To lure an ignorant young girl like this — does his conscience not ache at all?
