Chapter 1869 - 335: 6

Child: "Equivalent to a whip, I'm nominally your subordinate Ghost General, this is your punishment as a superior."

Lin Shuyou: "How about we wait until we get back and ask Brother Xiao Yuan? Brother Xiao Yuan definitely has a better solution."

Child: "If that person suspects I have other intentions, it would be worse for me."

Lin Shuyou: "Brother Xiao Yuan will definitely understand and not think that way."

Child: "That person will definitely understand, but he can also pretend not to and beat me up tightly."

Lin Shuyou: "What did you secretly go and do again?"

Child: "How could I."

Last time I secretly descended into the Daoist Field, scheduled a fight with Zeng and Sun, and was caught in the middle of an intense battle.

Child self-reflected that recently, because I could be summoned for Divination again, I've become increasingly restless. If I were my own superior, I would also want to take the opportunity to discipline myself a bit.

Lin Shuyou: "Wait a moment... I'm now trying to control the True Monarch's body, you handle controlling the Ghost General's state."

Child: "Oh? Can it work!"

Lin Shuyou: "With this setup, can I handle the close combat, and you focus on releasing skill?"

Child: "Shall we try?"

Lin Shuyou carefully laid Chen Lin, whom he carried in his arms, on the ground and then quietly stood up.

Chen Lin, who had been "asleep," opened her eyes and looked at the retreating shadow on tiptoe.

Then watched him rush onto the water surface.

As punches and kicks were released, water splashed around, with attacks like surging tides, the surrounding water condensed into tridents to assist the attack.

Chen Lin was mesmerized by the sight.

Whenever she thought of how such a powerful man would blush with just a gentle touch in front of her, she found him so adorable and amusing.

She would chat with Zhou Yunyun at night, and Zhou Yunyun said, in the past, Tan Wenbin was the class's naughty king, causing teachers endless headaches. Later, for unknown reasons, Tan Wenbin suddenly became much more mature.

Though still nonchalant, often playful and glib, Zhou Yunyun always had a sense of feeling cared for and embraced.

This aspect, Chen Lin understood more clearly because Zhou Yunyun still didn't know the true identity of her partner; isn't she being meticulously protected all the time?

Chen Lin feared Tan Wenbin greatly.

Because she knew, her little schemes were insignificant before Tan Wenbin.

Regarding Ah You, she could even openly reveal her "designs" in front of him.

Lin Shuyou, soaked, returned ashore, happily walking back.

Chen Lin timely closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Lin Shuyou sat back in place, gently lifted her, softly restoring her previously resting position in his arms.

When the little lady next door to the Flower Woman asked if he had a partner, he responded: Yes.

It was a very strange feeling; even he felt a bit unreal, do I have a partner now?

It seemed like a partner was something adults would have — a form of possession, a kind of reliance, a responsibility.

Since childhood able to communicate with the White Crane Child, Lin Shuyou possessed a naturally innocent heart, coupled with the Lin Family's upright and ancient familial education, keeping his inner world pure as white paper, like a boy who would never grow up.

Child: "The girl woke up a long time ago."

Lin Shuyou: "She's still sleeping."

Child: "She's pretending to be asleep."

Lin Shuyou: "How do you know?"

Child: "Your clothes are soaked, she's in your arms, how could she not know? Also, water dripping from your chin fell onto her face, still no reaction!"

...

During dinner at Mr. Li's house, Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou sat in the back seat, letting Chen Lin drive.

Originally, Lin Shuyou should have sat in the front seat, with Zhou Yunyun and me in the back seat, but unexpectedly Ah You, excitedly whispered secrets upon meeting.

Tan Wenbin listened gladly, Ah You found a way to meet the grade requirements.

Back at the courtyard of home, seeing Run Sheng making paper crafts, Tan Wenbin couldn't help but rub his eyebrows, well, Run Sheng passed too.

Now, in the Rapid Training Class, only I hadn't passed.

Zhou Yunyun greeted Liu Yumei, and Liu Yumei nodded in reply.

Chen Lin expressed gratitude to Liu Yumei, saying the tea she took last time was finished and tasted great. Liu Yumei smiled.

Aunt Liu: "Time for dinner!"

Li Zhiyuan walked out of the room, cleaned up, and headed downstairs with Alii.

Li Sanjiang: "Little Yuanhou, have you finished your drawings?"

Previously, fearing Grandmaster's worry, Li Zhiyuan told him that he was busy at night designing blueprints for the teacher, the teacher was occupied during the day, only able to communicate via phone for data updates at night.

Li Zhiyuan: "Almost done, Grandmaster."

Li Sanjiang sighed with relief: "That's good, it's important to keep a regular schedule; otherwise, the body can't handle it."

Li Zhiyuan sat down and started eating.

Lately, he had made significant progress, not only gaining new understanding and applications of previously mastered skills but mainly stretching and honing his mental consciousness, raising his upper limit in this area.

After dinner, Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou sent Zhou Yunyun and Chen Lin home, with Chen Lin driving on the way there and Lin Shuyou driving back alone.

Run Sheng went to the riverside, took a shovel, dug a pit and burned the paper crafts he made.

The evening breeze stirred the ashes, leaving behind a line of words much prettier than before:

"How long is the shelf life?"

After sending Alii back to the East Room, Li Zhiyuan returned to the living room, approaching Xiao Hei's doghouse.
