210: Frustrated Lin Xin
Lin Xin's account greatly shocked Lin Xi.
She hadn't expected there to be so many hidden details behind this.
For a moment, she looked at this Third Sister with a complex expression, and the fear in her heart also dissipated considerably.
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, after the marriage, I'll go straight into seclusion and won't disturb you," Lin Xin said indifferently.
She didn't care about others' opinions. Anyway, she and Zhou Luo were just a fake couple, so it was best to make things clear.
Lin Xi's eyes were slightly red, and she pursed her lips and shook her head: "Third Sister, I was wrong."
"No need to say more, this is fine," Lin Xin said, waving her hand.
She didn't like this, it made it seem like she was incredibly wronged by saying these things.
In fact, she wasn't wronged at all; she just wanted to make things clearer for the sake of getting along with Zhou Luo's women in the future.
As for this sister's apology, it really wasn't necessary.
Lin Xi knew the other party's temperament and didn't say these things anymore, but she still said: "Third Sister, you can live in Zhou Garden."
"No need, this was agreed upon by me and Zhou Luo," Lin Xin said with calm eyes.
This trip to Jiang City made her even more aware of the importance of strength.
It was a good opportunity to use this marriage to get some peace and quiet, so she could focus on Cultivation and strive to achieve a Breakthrough as soon as possible.
Lin Xi no longer insisted.
The two sisters chatted in the room for a while.
Basically, Lin Xi was the only one talking, and Lin Xin just occasionally responded.
It wasn't until evening.
After the guests dispersed, Xu Changsheng began arranging for the servants to clean, while the wives and concubines went to coax the children to sleep.
Zhou Luo came to the front of the bridal chamber and pushed the door open.
This time he was clever; he specifically refined a bottle of hangover pills before the wedding, so his mind was still very clear.
In the room, Lin Xin, wearing a phoenix crown and ceremonial robes, sat upright on the bed, her beautiful eyes staring at him without blinking.
Zhou Luo sat on a round stool, poured himself a cup of spirit tea, and drank it in one gulp.
"I'm sleeping on the bed!"
"I'm sleeping on the bed!"
The next second, the two said in unison.
Zhou Luo's eyebrows raised slightly, and he turned to look at her: "Third Miss, I'm the victim, okay?"
Lin Xin glared at him: "What victim? I'm the one who married in. Even if it's fake, I'm still a guest."
"Indeed, guests should sleep on the bed," Zhou Luo said thoughtfully.
Lin Xin let out a long sigh of relief.
Earlier on the way back, she had always slept on the jade platform in the room and had long been dissatisfied.
Now, of course, she had to seize this opportunity to turn the tables.
However, she didn't expect Zhou Luo to suddenly say: "But this is my room, and I also want to sleep on the bed."
As he spoke, he had already approached, his tall and slender figure casting a huge shadow against the light, enveloping Lin Xin's small body.
Lin Xin looked up, seeing that exquisite and handsome Face, and those deep eyes like Stars, her heart stirred.
She subconsciously shrank back: "What are you going to do?"
"Sleep."
Zhou Luo smiled indifferently, turned sideways, and elegantly fell onto the bed close to her, not forgetting to stretch comfortably.
"Tired."
Before Lin Xin could speak, Zhou Luo lifted his legs and kicked towards her.
Lin Xin quickly got up, forced to give up the big bed she liked.
She glared resentfully at the complacent fellow on the bed: "How dare you be so presumptuous with me?"
"Hey, as the saying goes, when under someone else's roof, one has to bow one's head. Third Miss, you should seriously consider your situation."
Zhou Luo, holding the other party's handle, chuckled.
Lin Xin gritted her teeth, and turned to walk to the side.
Leave, must leave.
Tomorrow, I'll go to the Spirit Vein Blessed Land for Cultivation; out of sight, out of mind.
Sitting cross-legged on the Cultivation jade platform, Lin Xin, with her eyes closed, thought to herself.
On the bed, Zhou Luo narrowed his eyes, didn't say much, just took off his outer clothes, and lay comfortably on the bed.
Still need to kill this Third Miss's arrogance.
Otherwise, he was afraid that she would use that arrogance on his wives and children in the future.
The wedding night was as calm as water.
Lin Xin got up early in the morning and left the room directly, without even eating breakfast, and headed straight for the Spirit Vein Blessed Land.
As a result, she didn't expect that just as she arrived at her exclusive Cultivation room, her Father Lin Ze, Tenth Elder actually came looking for her personally.
"Look at you, running away from home on the first day of your marriage. Do you want people to laugh at you?" Lin Ze, Tenth Elder said angrily.
"Father, I just wanted to Cultivation, and I informed Zhou... Husband," Lin Xin said, pursing her lips.
There was truth and falsehood in this statement; at least the first half was true, but the second half...
When she left, that guy was still sleeping soundly. How could she have informed him?
Lin Ze, Tenth Elder's Face was full of displeasure: "When can't you Cultivation? Your current task is to quickly integrate into Zhou Garden, don't be willful."
Lin Xin pouted, wanting to retort, but seeing her Father's appearance, she knew it was useless.
There was nothing she could do, so she returned to Zhou Garden helplessly.
In Zhou Garden, Zhou Luo had just woken up and was playing with Xiao Changle.
"Oh, Third Miss, went for a walk?" Zhou Luo teased.
Lin Xin glared at him, walked straight upstairs, and ignored him.
In the following days, this Third Miss, as expected, stayed in her room all day and never came out.
Lin Xi was worried, so she sent someone to bring her spirit food and asked Zhou Luo to persuade her properly.
Zhou Luo smiled: "Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"
"Actually, Older Sister isn't bad-hearted," Lin Xi replied, and then told him about yesterday's events.
After listening, Zhou Luo's eyes flickered slightly.
He hadn't expected this Third Miss to have such a past.
Knowing this didn't mean Zhou Luo had to lose Face to coax her, because it had nothing to do with him anyway. At most, he would let her sleep on the bed in the future.
That night, he slept in Bai Zhiyan's room.
This "crybaby" had been tormented by Zhou Luo ever since she agreed to have ten children last time.
Just like this, another half a month passed.
Zhou Luo, who hadn't gotten the other women pregnant and felt he was about to break through, simply decided to take Lin Xi to the Spirit Vein Blessed Land for Dual Cultivation.
Just as they were preparing to leave Zhou Garden, Lin Xin, who hadn't left her room, suddenly blocked their path.
"I want to go too."
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, while Zhou Luo smiled: "Do you know what we're going to do?"
"Naturally, we're going to the Spirit Vein Blessed Land for Cultivation, and I'm going too," Lin Xin said, lifting her chin.
Ever since she was reprimanded by her Father, she had lost the qualification to enter the Spirit Vein Blessed Land.
Now that there was an opportunity, of course, she couldn't miss it.
"Third Sister, we..." Lin Xi wanted to explain.
But Lin Xin interrupted forcefully: "No, you must take me with you."
"Suit yourself," Zhou Luo was too lazy to bother with her and walked straight out.
Lin Xin was unwilling and quickly followed.
Just like this, the three of them arrived at the Spirit Vein Blessed Land Core Area.
The rooms in the Core Area were no different from the outside, just more spacious and brighter.
Because Lin Xi and Lin Xin were sisters, their Cultivation rooms were next to each other.
When Lin Xin saw the two of them walk into the room together, she immediately asked doubtfully: "Are you going to Cultivation together?"
If the Cultivation distance was too close, it would affect the other person's spiritual energy absorption speed.
So, it was basically impossible for there to be two people in one room.
But looking at their appearance, they were clearly going to Cultivation together.
"Third Sister, yes," Lin Xi said with a blush.
After saying that, she was pulled into the room by Zhou Luo.
Lin Xin had a suspicious look on her Face.
Yes is yes, why are you shy?
Could there be something fishy going on?
