Chapter 258: Warm Hospitality Li Daoyuan!
Lin Langyue stared at Li Ran.
Everything that happened between two of them kept going back in her mind.
Although they had not been apart for a long time, it was as if they were separated by four seasons.
This man, whom she had identified as the Heavenly Dao, could always easily shake her Dao Heart. At this moment, she could not calm down at all.
She suppressed her fear and said softly, “Master Li, long time no see.”
Li Ran was a little surprised, but he still smiled and nodded. “Long time no see, Chief Lin.”
Lin Langyue’s eyes flickered with a sinister smile.
At that moment, it was as if the nine heavens and moon had fallen into the mortal world.
Li Daoyuan covered his heart.
He was done.
This shy look was exactly the same as the other four.
“It’s my fault. This kid doesn’t even have the slightest bit of luck!”
“Lin Langyue is the head of the Tianshu Institute, and she cultivates the Daoism of the Grand Emperor. How dare Li Ran provoke her?”
“What if she finds out…” Li Daoyuan couldn’t help but shiver.
He felt that one day, he would fall into his son’s hands.
Lin Langyue noticed him and became nervous. “Master Li, this must be your father, right?”
Li Daoyuan shook his head. “I’m not. I’m not familiar with him.”
“Ah?” Lin Langyue was confused.
Li Ran said with a good smile, “He’s my father. He’s just humorous.”
Li Daoyuan’s mouth twitched.
“This junior greets Uncle Li.” Lin Langyue took out a jade pillow with complicated patterns on it. The room was instantly filled with spirit energy.
“This is a spiritual treasure refined by my sect’s first Elder. It’s called the Spirit Dream Pillow. It can nourish Qi and blood, dredge meridians, and promote the circulation of spiritual power.”
She placed the jade pillow on the table. “This junior came in a hurry and didn’t properly prepare. I hope Uncle Li doesn’t mind.”
Li Daoyuan gulped.
This restrained and shy woman in front of him, was she really known as the number one genius in the vast lands?
He even prepared a gift for himself.
He was at a loss. “Chief Lin, you’re too polite! We’ve never met. How can we accept this gift?”
Lin Langyue smiled and said, “Uncle, you’re too lenient. Although this is our first time meeting, I’m an old friend of Master Li’s.”
“Old friend?”
Li Daoyuan was confused.
He remembered that Li Ran had beaten her before!
Could it be that she even had feelings for him?
Lin Langyue nodded. “To be precise, Master Li is my benefactor. It’s a long story. If he hadn’t helped me a few times, I would have died long ago.”
“And this?” Li Daoyuan was a little surprised. “Chief Lin, please take a seat. Someone, bring tea!”
“Uncle Li is too polite.” Lin Langyue was stunned when she turned around.
She only saw four girls sitting behind him, their eight eyes staring blankly at her.
“Princess Sheng, Chief Yue, and Aqin, Qin Ruyan?” Lin Langyue was puzzled. “Why are you here?”
“I should be the one asking you this question, right?” Qin Ruyan frowned. “Why did you come to the Li family?”
Lin Langyue glanced at her and said calmly, “This is the Li family, not the Qin family. Do I have to report this to Saint Qin?”
Hmph!
Qin Ruyan pinched her smooth chin and felt that something was wrong with her.
Li Ran had clearly beaten her before, but the way she looked at Li Ran was filled with joy… Worship?
“Could it be that something happened between the two of them?”
“That’s not right. Wasn’t Lin Langyue’s cultivation forgotten?”
Girls were puzzled.
They didn’t know what Lin Langyue and Li Ran had experienced, so they were surprised by her appearance.
Lin Langyue walked to Yue Jianli and sat down.
Atmosphere quieted down.
Yue Jianli could not help but ask in a low voice, “Chief Lin, why are you here?”
Lin Langyue cleared her throat. “Master Li has done me a favor. I should come over and take a look. Chief Yue, why are you here?”
Cough! Cough!
Yue Jianli blushed. “Sheng Zi Li has done me a favor. I came to take a look too.”
…….
Two women looked at each other awkwardly.
She turned to look at Li Ran, her eyes filled with resentment.
How many women did this guy provoke?
Li Daoyuan looked at the five girls and felt dizzy.
Righteous, Devil, Imperial…
In the Eight Great Sects, there were only three female successors, and the Sheng Clan only had two princesses.
Right now, all of them were here, not leaving a single one behind!
Li Daoyuan said quietly, “Li Ran, aren’t you going to explain this to me?”
Li Ran scratched his head. “I don’t have much to explain. I just like to make friends…”
“Are you making friends or a girlfriend?”
Li Daoyuan sneered. “If a man comes today, I’ll believe you.”
Li Ran rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. In fact, only Yue Jianli was his woman.
Others might have feelings that surpassed his friendship, but nothing happened.
However, judging from Li Daoyuan’s expression, he didn’t believe it at all.
At this time, the guards outside the door walked in and bowed, “Your Highnesses, it’s getting late. We should return to the palace.”
“I know.” Sheng Anyi nodded.
They had indeed been here for a long time. If they returned late, they would probably be blamed by their father.
“Uncle Li, we’ll take our leave first. We’ll see you later.”
Li Daoyuan nodded and stood up. “Princess, take care.”
“Hold on…”
“I’ll see you off.” Li Ran stood up and said with a smile, “Princesses, this way, please.”
Two of them blushed slightly and did not refuse. They followed him to the door.
He walked to the entrance of the Li family.
Sheng Zhixia looked at Li Ran beside him and asked softly, “Master Li, how long are you planning to stay here?”
Li Ran replied, “After the Immortal Ascension Assembly, we should be back to the sect.”
Sheng Zhixia hesitated for a moment before blushing, “Then you have time these few days. Can you come to the palace to play with me? I… I’m pretty bored.”
Li Ran looked at her expectant gaze and couldn’t bear to refuse. “Alright, I’ll look for you when I have the time.”
“Then it’s settled!”
Sheng Zhixia smiled and jumped into the sedan.
Sheng Anyi walked past him, her eyes flickering. “Sheng Zi Li, stop.”
He hurriedly boarded the sedan chair.
Li Ran shook his head and smiled.
He had thought that the two princesses would hate him if they left that image behind, but now it seemed that it wasn’t like that.
“But I don’t want to go to the Imperial palace.”
When he thought of Sheng Ye’s dirty tricks, he felt uncomfortable.
……
When Li Ran returned to the guest hall, the other three women were about to stand up and bid farewell.
“Uncle Li, it’s getting late. I can’t bother you any longer.”
“We’ll go back first.”
Li Daoyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
He couldn’t bear for them to stay any longer.
He couldn’t help but smile. “Are you in such a hurry to leave? There are still many rooms in the mansion. It’s not like you can’t stay there.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ruyan smiled and said, “Since Uncle Li is so kind as to persuade me to stay, then I refuse.”
Li Daoyuan was stunned.
Yue Jianli and Lin Langyue looked at each other and returned to their chairs.
“Uncle Li is hospitable.”
“Yeah, since that’s the case, let’s stay overnight.”
Li Daoyuan didn’t know what to say.
