Chapter 936: Brother Linyuan

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In early autumn, the morning temperature gradually turned cold. Liuli Luoluo was wearing a beige knitted dress with a short maroon coat. She had her long hair tied up today, a pair of sparkling and exquisite pearl earrings on her ears, and a pair of white pearl-buckled high heels.

She stood by the stone table in the small garden in the courtyard as she patiently waited for Ji Linyuan to finish his morning exercise.

The red elm tree released a wave of spiritual energy at six o’clock in the morning every day. The Beast Tamers in the clan would get up early and sit cross-legged in the courtyard to cultivate while absorbing spiritual energy. As Yin Mingjue’s only personal disciple, Ji Linyuan had never been a slacker. He didn’t dare to slack off on cultivation.

During the Central PaG.o.da Incident more than twenty years ago, among the two hundred genius youths who partic.i.p.ated in the Central PaG.o.da challenge, he was the only one who survived, and he was saved by his mentor.

Therefore, Ji Linyuan didn’t dare to slack off.

He had no right to slack off.

After the morning exercise, Ji Linyuan opened his eyes. Liuli Luoluo, who had been waiting by the side for a long time, walked over with a warm towel. “Wipe your face.” After the morning exercise, some black water would flow out of Ji Linyuan’s chin.

It was the filth acc.u.mulated in his body.

After Ji Linyuan took the handkerchief and wiped his face, he raised his head and said to Liuli Luoluo, “I told you long ago that you don’t have to wait for me here. You have your own matters. I have hands and feet. I don’t need you to take care of me like this.” Ji Linyuan felt helpless.

Back then, they suspected that Madam Xuanyuan had ulterior motives for marrying off the female disciples of the Liuli Clan. Therefore, under Sheng Lingfeng’s instigation, Ji Linyuan could only bite the bullet and marry Liuli Luoluo.

He placed Liuli Luoluo beside him in order to investigate Liuli Nuonuo’s motives.

But in the end?

After three years, Liuli Luoluo actually did nothing out of the ordinary. She only accompanied him quietly and served him. She was the ideal wife for most men.

In the past, Ji Linyuan had never paid attention to Liuli Luoluo.

After all, their age, status, seniority, and cultivation levels were too different.

However, Ji Linyuan knew that Liuli Luoluo wasn’t such a person. He had investigated Liuli Luoluo and knew that when she was studying in the Divine Realm Academy, she was a feisty and brazen girl. Although she dressed provocatively and spoke boldly, she was someone with self-respect and dignity.

According to the investigation, Liuli Luoluo had admired Sheng Xiao for many years, but she had never received his response. Later, when she saw that Sheng Xiao had married a junior, Liuli Luoluo gave up on Sheng Xiao. Later, it was said that she started a relationship with Xuanyuan Chen.

But then, for some reason, they suddenly broke up.

A few days after they broke up, she took the initiative to sign up for the marriage recruitment event.

When the two of them first got married, Liuli Luoluo would occasionally reveal her true personality. However, as they interacted day and night, Liuli Luoluo actually restrained herself and became a gentle and virtuous wife.

After Liuli Luoluo took the handkerchief from Ji Linyuan, she bent down and washed the handkerchief in warm water. She lowered her eyes and said gently, “Brother Linyuan, I’m willing to take care of you. Ever since my mentor pa.s.sed away, my cultivation level seems to have been sealed. No matter how hard I cultivate, I haven’t improved. I have nothing to do, so taking care of you has become my pleasure.”

Liuli Luoluo wrung out the towel and looked up at Ji Linyuan with a bright smile as she said, “Brother Linyuan, are you even going to take away this bit of fun from me?”

Ji Linyuan panicked when he heard her calling him Brother Linyuan repeatedly.

Although Ji Linyuan looked like a handsome gentleman, he was actually in his eighties. As long as he thought about how Liuli Luoluo was still a baby when he was already in his sixties, it was very difficult for Ji Linyuan to have any romantic feelings for her.

“I’m already an old man. Don’t call me Brother Linyuan.” Ji Linyuan really couldn’t stand being called that.

Liuli Luoluo burst out laughing. As she tilted her head, she suddenly shouted, “Hubby.”

Ji Linyuan immediately had gooseb.u.mps.

“Just call me Brother Linyuan.”

Ji Linyuan hurriedly found an excuse and strode out of the courtyard.

After leaving the courtyard, he rubbed his temples as he scolded inwardly, “Sheng Lingfeng, you treacherous thing. You made me suffer so much!”

Ji Linyuan had just taken a few steps out of the courtyard when he met Yu Huang, who was about to look for him. “Junior Sister.” Ji Linyuan stopped and sized up Yu Huang. Yu Huang was wearing a white silk shirt with a ruffle collar today. The hem of her shirt was tucked into a rose-red skirt that accentuated her slender waist and s.e.xy b.u.t.t.

The diagonal skirt design revealed her long legs.

The black strappy high heels made her look even more feminine.

Ji Linyuan was used to seeing Yu Huang in casual clothes. When he suddenly saw Yu Huang wearing a skirt and high heels, he was a little dazed. “Where… are you going?”

Yu Huang said, “To the Sheng family to see my in-laws.”

“No wonder.” Since she was going to see her in-laws, she had to dress up.

“What’s wrong?” Yu Huang noticed that Ji Linyuan’s face was a little red, so she asked, “Are you sick?”

He wasn’t sick. He was just feeling bashful.

Ji Linyuan waved his hand and said, “No, I just did some morning exercise and feel a little hot.”

Yu Huang nodded and really thought Ji Linyuan was just feeling hot. She asked Ji Linyuan, “Is Sister-in-law at home?”

“Yes.” Ji Linyuan pointed at the courtyard and said, “She should be eating breakfast now. Why are you looking for her?”

“I have something to ask her for help with.”

“Oh really? What is it?” Ji Linyuan was a little curious.

With Yu Huang’s current status, was there anything she needed Liuli Luoluo’s help with?

“Don’t worry about it.” Yu Huang waved at Ji Linyuan and entered his courtyard in her high heels.

Just as Ji Linyuan had said, when Yu Huang arrived, Liuli Luoluo was indeed eating breakfast. Seeing that Yu Huang had arrived, Liuli Luoluo hurriedly put down her chopsticks and stood up to welcome her. She even asked respectfully, “Patriarch, what can I do for you?”

Yu Huang still wasn’t used to the changes in Liuli Luoluo.

She pondered for a moment before saying, “Sister-in-law, have you organized a banquet before?”

As the eldest disciple of the Liuli Clan, Liuli Luoluo naturally knew about these things. “Banquets were often held in the Liuli Clan in the past.” At that time, the Liuli Clan held a banquet every year and invited some men to attend. Liuli Luoluo was best at this.

“Then I asked the right person.” After Yu Huang walked to the dining table and sat down, she told Liuli Luoluo about the tea party she was going to hold.

After Liuli Luoluo heard this, she only asked, “Then who do you want to invite?”

Yu Huang told her, “Invite all the first-rate families and second-rate families’ official wives who are already married but don’t have children.” The reason she only invited the official wives was that many male cultivators had mistresses.
