"Yuxiang, I’m not asking you to marry him right now, just get to know Mr. Lin a bit. He might not even be interested in you," Xu Qinyi said.
"But I’m so beautiful, he will definitely fall for ."
Xu Yuxiang said helplessly, sotis being pretty is a mistake.
"Mr. Lin isn’t bad looking either, he’s skilled in both literature and martial arts, with a strong talent for Martial Dao. He might beco a powerful figure like my father in the future. How would being with him be a compromise?"
Xu Qinyi said.
"You said ’in the future.’ He’s just a poor boy with no background in this chaotic world; who knows if he’ll have the chance to grow?" Xu Yuxiang muttered.
"If you marry him, wouldn’t the Xu Family be his background?"
"In tis of chaos, heroes erge. Perhaps Mr. Lin will make a na for himself in this turbulent world," Chen Xihong said with a smile.
"I think he’ll just as likely die early."
Xu Yuxiang thought but didn’t dare to speak out.
Born into an aristocratic family, having been pampered since childhood, she looked down on soone like Lin Zheyu, who fled from the Outer City with nothing.
Praise it as strong talent and limitless potential in the future,
Despite this, the reality is that he currently has nothing, a poor boy with only talent and untapped potential, just in the Bone Forging stage.
In this chaotic world, it remains uncertain if he can ever truly grow.
Xu Yuxiang didn’t want to be with soone like that, with no security for the future. She wanted to marry into a noble family and live a life of luxury.
"Alright, stop being stubborn. My father has a keen eye for people, and those he favors always achieve great success," Xu Qinyi said with a smile.
"Hmph!"
Xu Yuxiang snorted softly and stopped talking.
She couldn’t refuse decisions made by Xu Jingwu.
Besides, he’s really got a good eye for people; those who thrive under his watch do indeed achieve great heights. But what about those who died? What about all the ones who perished?
The deceased third uncle and the fiancé of her cousin, who died before marriage — weren’t they all young n trusted by Mr. Xu?
And aren’t they all dead?
"Yuxiang, rest assured, I would vouch for you. Lin Zheyu is indeed a handso and talented young man with skills in both arts and martial arts."
"If you don’t want him, I’ll have my father bring him into the Ren Mansion as a son-in-law," Ren Qingfeng said with a smile.
He got along well with Chen Xihong and Xu Qinyi, and they specially t Lin Zheyu together last ti.
They originally wanted to invite him the day before yesterday to test his martial skills, but unfortunately, he had already left the city.
Xu Yuxiang didn’t want to say anything, resting her head on her hand and looking at the food on the table.
...
Lin Zheyu had just entered Funing Garden when a maid ca to greet him.
"Mr. Lin, your seat is over here, please follow ," the maid said.
Sitting down at his seat, several Martial Artists from the Feihong Gang’s Refining Internal Organ Realm were already there.
"Hello, sirs,"
Lin Zheyu greeted them.
Except for Qiu Gaoxuan, he had only t the other Refining Internal Organ Realm Martial Artists once or twice and wasn’t very familiar with them.
There were also a few young people at the Bone Forging Realm level, probably also talented individuals favored by Xu Jingwu.
"You’ve been invited to Funing Garden. Mr. Xu does value you," Qiu Gaoxuan said expressionlessly.
This guy was a deadpan, always speaking without a change in expression.
"I heard you when you first started storytelling. You were as thin as a monkey back then. I didn’t expect you to reach the Bone Forging Realm in just a few months."
"Such talent is truly enviable!" the middle-aged man on his left sighed.
His na was Xu Yezhou, and his ancestors were from the Xu Family, though they were quite distantly related now.
"Indeed, back then, I practiced diligently for four or five years to reach the Bone Forging Realm. I didn’t expect Mr. Lin to achieve it in a few months. Such talent is truly enviable,"
A young man of a similar age to Lin Zheyu said with admiration.
He was also favored by Xu Jingwu as a talented martial artist, but compared to Lin Zheyu, he felt ashad.
"You’re too kind, everyone. In the beginning, I used a lot of Qi-enhancing and blood-strengthening dicine, so my progress was faster, but it has slowed down since,"
Lin Zheyu humbly said.
Sitting with them, he felt a bit out of place and didn’t talk much, quietly listening to the conversations among Qiu Gaoxuan and the others.
As ti went by, more and more people arrived.
