121: Liu Yaner is blocking the door?
Jiang Lin has returned to the Capital.
This news spread throughout the entire Capital the moment Jiang Lin entered Drunk Life Dream Death Tower.
Jiang Lin's reputation across the Nine Provinces is quite good now.
At Black Yuan City's most critical moment, he stepped forward to save the common people from peril.
Afterward, he held a public trial, giving the people of Black Yuan City an “explanation.”
He is the young hero of today!
But there is only one place that doesn't buy into this.
That is the Capital.
When people in the Capital heard this news, without exception, they thought, the Jiang Family is putting on a show again.
Jiang Lin, don't we know his true nature?
If he's in a bad mood, he'll even slap a passing dog!
Save people?
It's good enough if he doesn't kill anyone!
The Capital has suffered Jiang Lin for a long time!
As for the news of Jiang Lin's return to the Capital being widely known, it wasn't due to some behind-the-scenes manipulator pushing it.
Rather, as soon as Jiang Lin returned to the Capital, he widely distributed invitations, hosting his shady friends at Drunk Life Dream Death Tower, boasting about his great achievements in Black Yuan City.
The banquet lasted a full day and night, truly a joyful occasion.
At this moment, the banquet ended.
In the entire hall, only Jiang Lin and Jiang Liu, who was behind him, remained.
Looking at the mess on the floor, Jiang Lin asked with a slight pang of pain, “Jiang Liu, how much did this meal cost?”
Jiang Liu's expression was a bit strange as he said, “Young Lord, someone paid for this banquet!”
Hearing this, Jiang Lin's expression instantly changed from gloomy to bright, a smile on his lips about to burst forth.
“I can't afford this small amount of money?
Who looks down on me so much?
Tell him not to be polite in the future, and be sure to increase the intensity!”
Just then, a clear, cold voice came from inside the hall.
“It's me!”
Jiang Lin looked up,
He saw a girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old.
She wore a black close-fitting outfit, her hair tied in a single ponytail, and her Face was full of heroic spirit.
“Yan... Yaner?”
Jiang Lin's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously glanced at Jiang Liu.
Boy, how do you handle things?
This plague god has arrived, and you didn't tell me in advance?
At this moment, Jiang Liu was full of grievances.
He also had no idea that Liu Yaner had arrived!
In the Capital, it is forbidden to use True Qi or Divine Sense to probe the surroundings.
At this moment, Liu Yaner walked up to Jiang Lin, a faint smile on her lips.
“Young Master Jiang is so imposing!”
“He solved two Ancient Demons in one go!”
“But why did I wait for three days outside Black Cloud Peak?”
Hearing this, Jiang Lin's Face was awkward: “Yaner, how long have you been here?”
Liu Yaner came to Jiang Lin, maintaining her smile, and said, “Last night, after hearing Ziyuan say you invited him to Drunk Life Dream Death Tower from Black Cloud Peak, I hurried back!”
“I probably listened to Young Master Jiang recount his great achievements outside for about eight hours!”
Listening to Liu Yaner's gritted teeth, her anger clearly at max, Jiang Lin subconsciously leaned back in his chair.
He said, slightly awkwardly, “Yaner, why didn't you tell me earlier?
I definitely would have gone to see you first. You consumed too much at Black Cloud Peak and need to recuperate and rest well!”
Liu Yaner maintained her smile: “I was just afraid of disturbing Young Master Jiang's important business, and besides, how bad would it be to make Young Master Jiang lose Face in front of his friends!
And, I don't know if there's a back door here. If Young Master Jiang ran away, it would be really difficult to handle!
I can't possibly just go to your home to find you!
After all, you're a big shot now!”
Looking at Liu Yaner, who was smiling without warmth, Jiang Lin's heart kept pounding.
“Cough cough, Yaner, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things at home, and the Dao Sect has been urging me to return, so I'll leave first!
Thank you for paying the bill for me. I'll treat you to a meal later!”
Jiang Lin stood up, signaling Jiang Liu to leave with him quickly.
The smile on Liu Yaner's Face completely disappeared. She flashed directly in front of Jiang Lin.
“Steward Liu, please step out for a moment. I have something to discuss with your Young Lord!”
“Oh, and clear everyone out of this building!”
“If you want your Young Lord's screams to be heard, I have no objection!”
Jiang Liu's expression slightly condensed. He glanced at Jiang Lin, as if asking what to do.
Jiang Lin took a deep breath, knowing that today would likely not end well.
He waved his hand, signaling Jiang Liu to retreat first.
If this woman was determined to mess with him, Jiang Liu being here was useless.
In fact, the reason Jiang Lin wanted to avoid Liu Yaner now,
was because it was not the right time to get close to the Liu Family.
It would be best to wait until Long Zhan couldn't resist making a move against Jiang Lin, and the Jiang Family “reluctantly” chose to get close to the Liu Family.
The situation in the Nine Provinces would instantly heat up, and Dragon Zhiyang would definitely not want such a situation to occur.
At that time, the Dragon would be furious!
And then he would add insult to injury...
Long Zhan would be almost crippled!
Once he lost his legitimacy, there would be no need to hide when trying to deal with him!
No matter how much Dragon Zhiyang treasured his son, he still had to care about the opinions of the people of the world.
Otherwise, who would obey him, and who would maintain his popularity for longevity!
Therefore, the most difficult thing now was dealing with this girl, Liu Yaner.
He couldn't make an enemy of her; the Liu Family had to be won over!
In the original plot, Xiao Dong was able to unify the Three Realms in the end, and the most important help came from the Liu Family.
It could be said that in troubled times, whoever gained the Liu Family gained the world!
But he also couldn't get too close, otherwise, it would be difficult to drag the Sima Family into it.
However, this woman, Liu Yaner, had too direct a personality!
She liked what she liked, and hated what she hated!
It was impossible for her to be in between the two.
Therefore, she couldn't intentionally distance herself from Jiang Lin; instead, she would keep pestering him.
This woman's temper was also extremely overbearing!
In his memory, this woman beating Jiang Lin was as common as eating and drinking...
Therefore, in the original plot, Jiang Lin liked Zhang Wanmeng, not this woman.
After repeatedly breaking her heart, Liu Yaner finally became completely disappointed in Jiang Lin.
Even in the Late Stage, when Xia Xuehan tried to kill Jiang Lin, Liu Yaner still helped Jiang Lin.
Although she couldn't block Xia Xuehan's attack, she still ensured Jiang Lin's body remained intact...
After Jiang Lin's death, Jiang Yu schemed against her repeatedly, which allowed Xiao Dong to seize the opportunity.
Seeing Jiang Liu leave, Liu Yaner's lips curved upward, and she directly sat down in the main seat.
“Young Master Jiang, we should have a good talk!”
“Tell me, why didn't you see me at Black Cloud Peak?”
Jiang Lin's Face froze, and he feigned confusion: “Black Cloud Peak?
I saw you, but you fainted, didn't you?”
Liu Yaner thought of Jiang Lin's appearance before her True Qi ran out.
He was so handsome!
As expected of the man Liu Yaner chose, he's not the good-for-nothing the outside world says he is!
Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!
What am I thinking?
She quickly shook her head, shaking off those distracting thoughts: “Don't change the subject. I'm talking about later, after you finished the public trial, at Black Cloud Peak!”
Jiang Lin put on an expression as if he knew nothing: “Huh? Why didn't I know that?
Why didn't you have someone tell me?
If I knew you woke up and were looking for me, I definitely would have rushed over. I thought the Liu Family had taken you away!
At that time, I just took the teleportation array back...”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yaner's expression froze.
Huh?
It seems I was the one who said not to tell him?
No, why would you take a teleportation array when you could just take the normal path?
But, Jiang Lin seems to be like that,
If he can be lazy and take a shortcut, he will never move himself!
So, this is still my problem?
Speechless for a moment,
She quickly changed the subject, deciding not to dwell on it: “What about the concubine issue?
You're getting more and more arrogant. Who allowed you to take a concubine?
Did you forget something?”
Saying that, Liu Yaner stood up, walking steadily towards Jiang Lin, her eyes extremely unfriendly.
