Chapter 12: Rogue
After dinner, Mr. Lin took the initiative to clean up the dishes.
Lin Xiyue wanted to help, but was stopped by Lin's mother.
"I'm still in confinement after childbirth, so I can't touch the cold water."
Lin Xiyue knew that there was a concept called confinement in this world. It had only been ten days since she gave birth, but according to them, she had not yet finished the confinement period.
Lin Xiyue was not afraid of the postpartum disease they mentioned. After all, she was a cultivator and her soul was much stronger than that of ordinary people. If she stayed in this body for some time, she would be able to recover some of her spiritual power. By then, her physique would be incomparable to that of ordinary people.
As several people were talking, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly kicked open.
"Mr. Lin, it's only natural to pay back your debts! Do you think I can't find you if you hide here like a shrunk turtle?" The man had big tattoos on his arms, holding an iron rod, with an arrogant look on his face, and followed by several younger brothers with colorfully dyed hair.
"Chen Darong, you said you would give us half a month, and now you're here again after just a few days!"
Seeing who was coming, eldest brother Lin Chen became angry.
"When have I, Chen Darong, ever kept my word? You are the cultured people. You are so stupid. You believe everything I say. I told you to eat shit, why don't you do it?"
Chen Darong spoke in a nonchalant tone, and when he said this, a group of younger brothers behind him burst into laughter.
"Brother Rong, this family is just stupid, otherwise how could they be fooled so much."
"That's right, Brother Rong. He lost his daughter and his army. Now they are living well, but you see they are just as old and sick as they were before they died. There is not a single intact person in the family."
"You are blind. Don't you see there is a pretty girl standing there?"
Chen Darong whistled at Lin Xiyue who was washing her face in the yard. Lin's mother, who was standing by, quickly protected her daughter and pulled her into the house.
Lin Xiyue didn't move, just stared coldly at the person who came.
"What's the matter, little sister? Is this your disappointing daughter? She's pretty. How about you follow me? I'll help you pay for your family's bill for a few months?"
Chen Darong looked so vulgar that it made people's teeth itch with anger.
"Chen Darong, get out of here!" Lin Chen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was furious. He supported the wheelchair with one hand and stood up suddenly, but was held down by the shoulders by Lin Xiyue who was standing beside him.
The hand was very slender, but it pressed his shoulder very hard.
He couldn't even struggle free. Lin Chen was shocked. When did his sister become so strong?
"Brother, just leave this little thing to me. There's no need for you to help."
A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Lin Xiyue's mouth.
"Hey! You are so arrogant, little sister! Brother is waiting for you, come on!"
Chen Darong spoke in a frivolous tone, and as soon as he finished speaking, the group of people burst into laughter again.
"Yes, yes, come here, little sister, play with your brother!"
"Haha, don't be afraid, the brothers are very gentle."
Lin Xiyue's face became colder and colder. She snatched the wooden stick from Brother Lin's hand and pushed his wheelchair aside.
"Little sister, don't be impulsive..."
Lin Chen was suddenly choked up in the middle of his words, and even Mother Lu, who was trying to pull Lin Xiyue aside, was stunned.
Lin Xiyue stood in front of them, and the fierce aura emanating from her body was shocking!
At this moment, what she was holding in her hand seemed not to be a wooden stick, but a sharp sword.
And she was like a real swordsman, with sharpness all over her body.
Everyone was frightened by her powerful aura and became silent for a moment.
Lin Fan, who had finally walked out holding on to the wall, even forgot to cough.
