“It’s actually quite powerful!”

Lin Zhongtian touched the holes on the stone cushion with interest. Just as he was about to try the power of the air cannon again, he suddenly heard light footsteps coming from the main house behind him.

"broken."

Lin Zhongtian's heart tightened and he quickly stood up and tried to flee the scene.

But before he could take a step, an unbelievable scream came from behind him.

Lin Zhongtian's body froze, he stopped helplessly, turned around and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

There, Zhang Yan, dressed in a plain white dress, was standing on the steps, looking at the bald locust tree with an expression of disbelief.

"Miss Zhang, listen to my explanation. I didn't mean it..."

Lin Zhongtian quickly raised his hand and wanted to explain.

But no matter how he explained, the girl just stood on the steps, staring blankly at the locust tree in the yard, muttering something like "my locust tree" or something like that.

Just when Lin Zhongtian was racking his brains over how to comfort her, the savior finally arrived.

The girl who was kidnapped from the Music Bureau by him appeared in time, wearing a white dress that didn't fit her well. She came to Zhang Yan, took her little hand and whispered something in a soft voice.

Lin Zhongtian took the opportunity to walk to the locust tree and put a hand on the trunk.

In an instant, the locust tree blossomed, the branches stretched out, and the pure white locust flowers bloomed at a speed visible to the naked eye. A refreshing fragrance immediately filled the courtyard.

Zhang Yan watched the whole process, her eyes widened in shock and she stood there in a daze.

The girl followed Zhang Yan's gaze and opened her mouth in surprise.

"Look, I've returned your acacia flowers to you!"

Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly, then turned and walked away towards the guest room.

The girl came to her senses, quickly lifted her skirt and chased after him.

"etc!"

“…”

Lin Zhongtian was slightly startled, and turned around in surprise: "What's wrong, Miss Yang?"

The girl bit her lower lip and said timidly: "My slave——"

"Stop! This is not the Jiaofangsi, you don't have to call yourself that."

"...Brother Fu is right."

The girl nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "I heard from Master Jin that you will leave the capital together in two days?"

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Did Jin Yichuan tell you?"

The girl shook her head quickly: "No, I heard it myself, but I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it was..."

Lin Zhongtian said unhappily, "He didn't avoid you. You don't need to explain. I understand. As soon as that guy entered the yard, all his attention was on Miss Zhang Yan. How could he pay attention to other things?"

The girl smiled knowingly and said enviously, "Mr. Jin and Sister Zhang are so in love with each other. I am also very envious."

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows: "Again?"

The girl was startled for a moment before she realized what was happening and quickly said, "It's me. I'm also very envious."

Lin Zhongtian sighed, knowing that the child’s speaking habit would not be changed in a short time.

The girl may have felt that she had said something wrong, her expression became a little flustered, and her behavior became cautious.

Seeing that she was secretly observing his expression, looking cautious and hesitant, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but sigh and said what she wanted to say.

"Do you want to leave the capital with us in two days?"

"……May I?"

The girl spoke timidly, as if she was afraid of being rejected.

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows: "Are you not having a good time here?"

The girl quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, I never thought about it that way. Doctor Zhang and my sister are both kind-hearted people who treat me very well. I also want to stay here and live with my sister, but..."

The girl paused, her expression darkening, "But I am the descendant of a convicted official, and I am also a slave in the Ministry of Justice. If I stay here, I will bring trouble to my sister's family sooner or later."

"You think too much!"

Lin Zhongtian shook his head and said with a smile: "Your sister Zhang's lover is an undercover agent in the Jinyiwei. Compared with him, you, a criminal official, are really not a big deal."

The girl shook her head and said, "Trouble is always trouble, no matter how big or small it is, I don't want to cause trouble for others."

Lin Zhongtian said jokingly: "Aren't you afraid of getting me into trouble?"

The girl was stunned when she heard this. She seemed to have not expected Lin Zhongtian to say this, and was a little at a loss.

Seeing her like this, Lin Zhongtian knew that she probably didn't mean to say such gossip.

It is very likely that he was rescued from the Jiaofangsi by himself, so he established the image of an omnipotent savior in his mind, and thus developed a certain degree of dependence on himself.

Not bothering two people with the same matter is also a common problem in human socializing.

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "Don't worry, I was just joking. With your ability, you can't implicate me. By the way, I don't think I've asked about your family background. If I'm not mistaken, your father should be a eunuch, right?"

The girl nodded with a complicated expression.

"So what's your father's name?"

"My father...his last name is Yang Huan."

"Yang Huan! One of the five great men under Wei Zhongxian, and a former criminal officer of the Eastern Division of the Jinyiwei. If I remember correctly, your father was only sentenced to exile and guard the border, and he is not dead yet - do you want to go find him?"

"No." The girl shook her head, then turned her head, looked towards the direction of the capital and murmured, "I just want to leave here now, go far away, and never come back in this life."

"Well, I'll take you away with me in three days."

"...Thank you, Brother Fu."

The girl bowed gracefully, but her tone was different from before.

When she stood up, she looked at Lin Zhongtian's face and said with a complicated expression: "Don't worry, Brother Fu, after leaving here, Su Hua will leave on his own and live in seclusion in a secluded place. He will definitely not cause trouble for Brother Fu..."

“…”

Lin Zhongtian was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.

He found that his words just now seemed to hurt the child.

So he reached out and touched the girl's head while she was staring at him in a daze.

"I told you it was just a joke. How can you be so sensitive at such a young age..."

At this point, Lin Zhongtian paused, thinking of the child's family background, he should be the sensitive one, so he smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, your full name is Yang Suhua, right?"

The girl nodded blankly.

Lin Zhongtian praised: "There is Fusu on the mountain and Hehua in the marsh. It is a good name."

The girl came back to her senses, looking embarrassed and blushing.

Lin Zhongtian continued to smile and asked, "Can you play the piano?"

The girl said softly, "I know a little, but not as well as Brother Fu."

Lin Zhongtian nodded: "Well, then I will be a good person to the end, and send the Buddha to the west. Tomorrow I will have someone send a zither over, and you can come to my room and learn some skills from me, the same as the one I used to deal with Shen Lian before. You should have seen it, right?"

The girl opened her mouth in surprise: "Ah?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "What? Since I have pulled you out of the quagmire of the Jiaofang Bureau, I will definitely not abandon you. But after you have learned the skills, the rest of your life will depend on you. Do you understand?"

Seeing the girl nodded with a red face, Lin Zhongtian smiled, touched the girl's head, and turned to walk towards the guest room.

The girl stood there in a daze, looking at Lin Zhongtian's tall figure in front of her. Suddenly, she smiled brightly, turned around, and skipped to find Zhang Yan.

Lin Zhongtian returned to the room, looked at the girl's back through the blinds, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

Putting aside her complicated background and family background, the other party was just a little girl of eleven or twelve years old after all. With his scumbag skills of changing three girlfriends in two years of college, it was not easy for him to control her...

Wait, now that I think about it, it seems that I should drink more tea!

Lin Zhongtian condemned himself severely in his heart, but then quickly put these things behind him and began to study other uses of internal energy with great interest.
