"You claim to know everything about astronomy and geography! Braggart! Just a braggart!"
As soon as Hu Xiaobei finished speaking, he received a massive eye roll from Bai Yan...
Feeling a bit wronged, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose, glanced at Lin Ling'er, and said softly, "Ah, sotis that's just the way it is! The more truthful the words, the harder they are to believe!"
"Go! Go! Go! The more you talk, the more outrageous it gets!"
"Haha!"
Hu Xiaobei laughed heartily!
He had exaggerated on purpose earlier...
The reason was to eliminate the barriers between them!
Understanding Hu Xiaobei's intention, Lin Ling'er looked at him with a bit of emotion...
Soon, Lin Ling'er spoke with slightly complex emotions!
"Xiaobei, thank you, thank you! If it weren't for you before, I... might have already died!"
Previously, Lin Ling'er had been trying her best to suppress the toxins...
But gradually, it beca increasingly difficult to continue suppressing them...
So, if Hu Xiaobei hadn't rescued her tily before, she really might have fallen into a permanent sleep...
Hearing such a sincere and grateful thanks, Hu Xiaobei waved his hand and said, "You really don't need to be so polite with ! I'm a practitioner of Chinese dicine, healing is my duty, so you don't need to say more!"
"But..."
When Lin Ling'er seed about to say sothing else, Hu Xiaobei interrupted, "I said, there's no 'but'! If you really want to thank , just tell about your family situation! I'm quite curious about the specifics of your family!"
"This..."
Lin Ling'er glanced at Hu Xiaobei's curious expression and hesitated slightly...
Previously, she wanted to hide her family's specifics because she knew the more Hu Xiaobei knew, the more dangerous it would be for him...
Feeling her inner struggle, Hu Xiaobei smiled and continued, "What's wrong? Can't you tell ?"
"Xiaobei, it's not that I can't tell you, it's just that there's no benefit for you knowing! So… maybe you shouldn't!"
"It's fine! Sister, don't worry, just tell everything you know! I can handle all the consequences!"
"Well… alright then!"
After so thought, she finally decided to tell Hu Xiaobei everything about her family...
She knew that previously, Hu Xiaobei had saved her...
Under such circumstances, he really couldn't stay uninvolved anymore...
So, by telling Hu Xiaobei more, he could also understand her family's situation better, allowing him to be prepared in advance...
Hearing her agree, Hu Xiaobei smiled!
Hu Xiaobei knew she had truly made up her mind to tell him now...
Soon, from her mouth, Hu Xiaobei learned a lot about her family...
Her family was a very powerful Hidden Family, extrely formidable...
The family was filled with experts...
This generation of the family had many heirs, and all the young people hoped to inherit the family, so from early on, all sorts of scheming had started!
The ergence of Lin Ling'er gradually dissipated these intrigues!
Because her Ice Marrow Body was imnsely formidable, she gradually beca the focus of the family's attention!
Knowing the family was focusing on her cultivation, she also prepared to work hard to take over the family in the future!
However, she was poisoned and plotted against by her own elder brother!
After sharing all this information, she sighed and said, "Thinking back now, Lin Chong really showed many odd behaviors back then, but at that ti, I just didn't think much about it!"
Hearing her slightly self-deprecating words, Hu Xiaobei looked deeply at her...
Hu Xiaobei knew she had been quite naïve before, so it was normal not to be wary...
"After this incident, she's much more cautious now, which is a good thing!"
Muttering to himself, Hu Xiaobei nodded lightly and said, "By the way, what do you plan to do afterward? I an, once you're cured, what are you going to do?"
Glancing at Hu Xiaobei, she quickly responded, "I plan to go back and expose his true face properly!"
Having expected such an answer, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes slightly and said sharply, "But you should know that once you're detoxified, you will no longer have the Ice Marrow Body, and by then, you won't be valued by the family at all."
"I understand that, but even so, I have to try! I can't just sit back and watch the entire family fall into his hands!"
If it were a fair competition and she lost, she wouldn't mind!
But since she's losing because it wasn't a fair competition, she really can't accept it.
Feeling her determination, Hu Xiaobei said no more!
Hu Xiaobei knew it was really hard to change her mind now...
"Xiaobei, do you think I'm stubbornly doing this wrong now?"
He looked at her and gently shook his head...
"No! This is your choice! Besides, when the ti cos, I'll go back with you, so I will absolutely ensure you're safe!"
"You… you want to go with ? This…"
"Relax, my strength is much more formidable than you think, so I definitely won't have any issues!"
"Even so, what identity will you appear as? Our kind of Hidden Family rarely interacts with the outside world, so we really fend off outsiders."
Hearing her confusion, Hu Xiaobei chuckled and suggested, "Then let's say I'm your boyfriend!"
"You…"
"What? Don't you think I look good enough? I think I'm okay!"
"Narcissist!"
She chuckled and rolled her eyes at Hu Xiaobei...
Soon, she said, "I'm serious, if you do go back with , you'll really face lots of negative treatnt!"
"Haha, we'll talk about that when the ti cos! Right now, the priority is getting you better!"
"That makes sense!"
Thinking it over, she nodded!
"Alright, take a good rest, when you wake up, we'll be at my place!"
"Okay!"
Agreeing, she shyly took a deep breath and soon gently closed her eyes...
"So reassuring!"
After closing her eyes, she felt a great sense of reassurance...
Earlier, Lin Ling'er hadn't rested well because she was constantly worried about being hunted...
But now, she truly felt she had a chance to properly rest because being by his side was genuinely comforting!
With these thoughts, she quickly fell into a deep sleep...
Seeing her quickly fall into a deep sleep, Hu Xiaobei silently sighed!
Hu Xiaobei felt a deep ache in his heart!
He knew that Lin Ling'er had really endured so much in the past...
That's why Lin Ling'er was able to fall asleep so quickly now...
"In the future, with around, I definitely won't let you endure so much, because I can bear many things for you!"
Having said that, Hu Xiaobei also took a deep breath and gradually fell asleep...
...
"Sister, let tell you, Xiaobei's place is said to be really, really nice! You'll definitely like it!"
At the airport, pulling a suitcase, Hu Xiaobei heard Qi Lianlian excitedly and eagerly speak, and he laughed!
Just now, after getting off the plane, Qi Lianlian beca excited again...
So she quickly told Lin Ling'er again...
"Alright, alright, alright! I'll definitely take a good look later!"
After saying this, Lin Ling'er saw many people standing ahead...
"What's going on here?"
She noticed it, and so did Qi Lianlian, who was also a bit curious now!
"It seems there's sothing lively to watch, we must go check it out!"
Saying this happily, she quickly looked at Hu Xiaobei and said, "Big brother Xiaobei, do you still have the popcorn I asked you to keep earlier?"
Hearing such an eager inquiry, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his forehead and said, "We don't even know what's happening yet, is there a need for popcorn?"
Hu Xiaobei was really surprised at the mont!
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's very surprised remark, Qi Lianlian quickly explained, "Of course, this kind of event is only interesting with popcorn! Quickly, give it to !"
"Alright!"
Agreeing, Hu Xiaobei squatted down, and soon handed over the half bag of popcorn she'd given him earlier...
"Thanks!"
Quickly taking it, Qi Lianlian grabbed Lin Ling'er's hand and rushed forward...
Hu Xiaobei sighed and silently followed them...
