Lin Mugen left after he finished speaking, but Bai Zhi stood there and didn't smile until a long time later.
His smile was bitter and difficult.
The news that Bai Zhi's marriage proposal was rejected soon reached Lin Xiaoxiao's ears. She had calculated everything, but she never expected that the biggest obstacle would be Lin Mugen.
Hurry to find Lin Mugen.
Lin Mugen had just returned from outside, his face full of solemnity.
Lin Xiaoxiao's original aggressiveness instantly lost half of its momentum when she saw him, "Dad... Dad, why didn't you agree to Brother Bai Zhi's proposal?"
"Hmph!" Lin Mugen got angry at the mention of this. "How can a girl like you be so shameless as to actually discuss your own marriage? Do you think you can negotiate this marriage on your own? Marriages must be arranged by a matchmaker and agreed upon by your parents. Do you understand?"
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed by Lin Mugen's scolding. "Dad, what you said is quite biased. I just asked you why you didn't agree to Brother Bai Zhi's proposal, and you said I was shameless. Then what about Sister Sang Yu? When my brother-in-law came to propose marriage, I didn't see you say that you were shameless?"
"You..." Lin Mugen was speechless, "How can this be the same?"
"Why is it different? I think Daddy did it on purpose. You can't tell your sister."
"You little girl, don't you know who your sister is? How can you tell her everything?"
"Then Daddy, give me a reasonable explanation."
Lin Mugen sighed helplessly, "Come with me to the study."
Lin Mugen can't read, so the so-called study is just an ordinary room where he occasionally talks.
He sat down on the chair, looked at the stubborn Lin Xiaoxiao, and advised earnestly: "Xiaoxiao, it's not that Daddy doesn't agree with you being together, it's really because Bai Zhi is not suitable for you."
"How do you know it's not suitable? We haven't even tried it yet?"
"Daddy is doing this for your own good. Do you know who he is?"
"Of course I know!" Lin Xiaoxiao's face was full of longing. "He is Sister Sang Yu's senior brother and the eldest disciple of the Poison King Valley. He is highly skilled in martial arts and powerful in skills. His poison making skills are superb. The poison he makes is priceless."
"Since you know that, why do you still want to marry him?" Lin Mugen stood up.
"I like him, of course I want to marry him!"
"Xiaoxiao, you've never been in the martial arts world, so you might not know what the Poison King Valley means. Do you know how many enemies Bai Zhi has? His life is so hard and dangerous every day. That kind of life is not suitable for you."
"This..." Lin Xiaoxiao paused, looked at Lin Mugen and said firmly: "Then I must go and protect my brother. He is in such danger, he must be scared and lonely. With me by his side, he will definitely not be afraid in the future."
"You are still stubborn and recalcitrant, how can your father harm you?"
Lin Xiaoxiao looked firmly into Lin Mugen's eyes, "Dad, I know you won't hurt me, but I also know what I'm doing. Besides, I don't find the days you described scary. At least they are happy and hopeful.
Yes, I have never been to the underworld. If it weren’t for Sister Sang Yu, I might have stayed in that small mountain village all my life, constantly washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, and then being scolded and beaten... Dad, do you think this kind of life is a good life?
At that time, I lived a numb and painful life.
And now, Sister Sang Yu has helped me get out of it.
I know what I want. I have never seen anyone as handsome and as good as Brother Bai Zhi in my life, so I want to try. Daddy, I really want to try. If there really is the kind of danger you said in the future, I will accept it.
So, Daddy, I hope you can support me and believe in me."
"Girl, when did you become like this..." Lin Mugen wanted to say something to her again, but when he thought of what Lin Xiaoxiao had just said, he felt uncomfortable and really couldn't bear to say anything to her.
To be honest, it was his fault as a father.
"It's getting late, Xiaoxiao, go back and rest. Let Daddy think about it."
Lin Xiaoxiao went back obediently, but still felt a little worried, so the next day she hurriedly drove to Nie's house to find Sang Yu.
When they arrived at Nie's house, Sang Yu was having breakfast. Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao coming, she pulled her to eat with them.
Seeing that Sang Yu looked rosy and in a good mood, Lin Xiaoxiao told her about Bai Zhi's proposal.
Sang Yu had just taken a sip of porridge when she heard that Bai Zhi was going to propose marriage. She was so excited that she almost choked on the porridge in her mouth. It took her a long time to recover.
"What did you say?" Sang Yu asked in surprise, coughing, "Senior Brother Bai went to propose marriage?"
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded.
Sang Yu took another sip of porridge in disbelief and asked again, then exclaimed, "The iron tree has blossomed!"
"What do you mean, sister?" Lin Xiaoxiao was puzzled.
Sang Yu explained to her, "Do you know why my senior brother is still unmarried at the age of 28 or 29?"
This is of course unknown...
Sang Yu didn't expect Lin Xiaoxiao to answer her, so she paused and continued, "My senior brother was brought back to the Poison King Valley by the Valley Master when he was still in his infancy.
According to the owner of the valley, he picked up the child while collecting herbs, and the child was hanging on a tree. He must have been thrown down from a cliff. Because he was lucky enough to be hanging on the tree, he was rescued by the owner of the valley who was collecting herbs.
But the child's health is not good.
He had been suffering from the disease since his mother's womb, was weak, and the disease was extremely poisonous. If he hadn't met the Valley Master, he probably wouldn't have survived for a few days.
