Lin Qi asked a few more questions, and when he saw that his sister didn't pay much attention to him, he rolled his eyes.
"Sister, I know I was wrong. Grandpa is not available right now. Why don't we leave first so as not to delay your practice?"
Hearing this, Fourth Miss Lin shifted her gaze slightly from the book and glanced at him with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if we delay for an hour or two, just wait!"
Lin Qi suddenly felt depressed. It seemed that he couldn't avoid the punishment today.
Not only Lin Qi in the side hall couldn't sit still, but Lin Shuangcheng, Lin Yongguang and Li Yuan who were waiting outside the hall also felt that they had been waiting for a long time.
The first to leave was Lin Yongguang. His cultivation was not high, and he had some chores to do. After waiting for nearly an hour without success, he went to take care of the chores.
Only Lin Shuangcheng and Li Yuan were left outside the hall. The two disliked each other, but because Young Master Lin Qi did not come out, they had to leave first.
Lin Shuangcheng secretly rolled his eyes and asked Li Yuan impatiently, "What is the relationship between that female cultivator and your family?"
Li Yuan knew clearly that Lin Shuangcheng disliked him, but the other party was highly valued and relied upon by the Seventh Young Master, and was also a member of the Lin family.
Even if someone's cultivation level is not as good as his, he would not dare to offend him too much.
After a moment of silence, Li Yuan said truthfully, "I don't know."
"Don't know? I see you don't want to tell me at all!"
Lin Shuangcheng snorted coldly and hated Li Yuan more and more in his heart. He had to find an opportunity to get him away from the Seventh Young Master!
Li Yuan opened his mouth to explain, but seeing that the other party had no intention of talking to him anymore, he closed his mouth again.
Not only Lin Shuangcheng, but the Seventh Young Master also seemed to dislike him.
He thought about asking for the Seventh Young Master's favor, but he had nothing in his hands and could not offer anything, nor could he say anything nice.
Yesterday, he unexpectedly learned that his family had caught some black fish, and he originally wanted to give it to the Seventh Young Master.
Snowball loves to eat black fish. For Snowball's sake, the Seventh Young Master should be very happy.
Unfortunately, Black Fish was sold, and even Snowball died.
Li Yuan was thinking about these things with a heavy heart. He took out thirty-seven spirit stones from home yesterday. Although it was not much, if he used it sparingly, it would last for a week.
He prefers to practice alone rather than stay with the Seventh Young Master.
After using up all the spirit stones, he went to the Black Wind Cliff to look for shells. Last time, he found three rare shells there, which he exchanged for dozens of spirit stones!
Unfortunately, my parents didn't like to eat those ordinary shellfish, so the ones they sent home were all returned intact.
As time went by, he became lazy.
Li Yuan was thinking about something else. When he heard his own name, he looked over blankly and asked hesitantly, "Fourth Miss, are you calling me?"
Fourth Miss Lin had a calm expression on her face. Before she could say anything, Lin Shuangcheng at the side sneered.
"The Fourth Miss has called you twice, but you remained indifferent. You really don't take the Fourth Miss seriously."
Li Yuan was a little surprised, "Fourth Miss, I was a little distracted just now, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Grandpa wants to see you, come in with me."
After Fourth Miss Lin finished speaking, she walked towards the hall.
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then after he came to his senses he quickly followed.
Lin Shuangcheng watched him walk into the hall, his heart burning with jealousy. Why was it Li Yuan who was called in to meet the head of the family
He was obviously a member of the Lin family and had grown up with the Seventh Young Master. Was it because his spiritual talent was not as good as Li Yuan's
Lin Shuangcheng was still unwilling, and Li Yuan, who followed Fourth Miss Lin into the hall, couldn't help feeling uneasy.
He asked himself that he had done nothing out of the ordinary in the Lin residence. Why did the head of the Lin family summon him for no reason
Could it be that the Seventh Young Master listened to Lin Shuangcheng and wanted to kick him out of the house
Thinking of this possibility, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel heavy-hearted.
Miss Lin Si walked in front to lead the way. She didn't even look at Lin Qi Shi, who was tied up like a dumpling and hung on the beam of the house and kept looking at her for help.
Li Yuan caught a glimpse of the miserable state of the Seventh Young Master. After the initial surprise, he quickly lowered his head and pretended that he saw nothing.
The Seventh Young Master was actually punished. I'm afraid it was the work of the Lin Family Master! It's better for him to pretend he doesn't know.
Lin Qi was so angry. It was fine if his sister ignored him, but Li Yuan actually dared to ignore him!
The head of the Lin family, who was sitting at the top, took all of this in and his brows sank slightly.
What Xiao Si said was indeed true. Xiao Qi hung out with Lin Shuangcheng all day long, and his temper became extremely impetuous.
If you don't teach him a lesson, his temper will become bad.
Miss Lin brought Li Yuan over and stood aside.
Feeling the cold gaze above his head, Li Yuan's palms began to sweat and he didn't dare to look up.
"Greetings, Master. What do you want to see me about?"
"Li Yuan, you have been coming to my house for seven or eight years, right?"
Patriarch Lin was somewhat emotional. For disciples in the Qi training stage, spiritual root talent was extremely important, especially on the Black Fish Island where the spiritual energy was not abundant.
For someone with dual spiritual roots like Li Yuan, there are plenty of resources for cultivation, and his cultivation speed will not be too slow.
Li Yuan felt relieved when he saw that Patriarch Lin did not intend to kick him out of the house.
"Let me tell you, I have been in the Lin Mansion for eight years."
"I remember that when you first entered the Lin Mansion, you were only at the second level of Qi training. In just eight years, you have been able to reach this point today, which shows that you have never slacked off in your daily practice."
The head of the Lin family nodded slightly. No matter how good one's spiritual talent is, it will be in vain if he doesn't practice hard. Li Yuan is someone who can endure loneliness, but he is a little timid.
Li Yuan was suddenly praised, feeling happy but also a little embarrassed.
In fact, he didn't like practicing very much, but he was not liked by the Seventh Young Master in the Lin Mansion. Naturally, the only thing he could do was to practice.
When he was relaxing, he heard the head of the Lin family continue, "Li Yuan, from today on, you don't have to follow Xiao Qi."
Li Yuan was shocked and didn't know what to do when the words of the head of the Lin family were heard again.
"Xiao Qi is useless. He can't even discipline a cat. How can he guide the people around him to the right path? From now on, you should practice with Xiao Si, so as not to bury your talent."
Li Yuan's heart was beating fast. Following the fourth young lady
When he was disliked by the Seventh Young Master and looked down upon by Lin Shuangcheng, he had also fantasized about being able to avoid the Seventh Young Master. Unexpectedly, today, his thought actually came true!
Moreover, Miss Lin Si has a good talent and personality, and is highly valued by the head of the family. Practicing with her will definitely lead to a bright future.
In just a few breaths, Li Yuan's mood experienced great ups and downs. He subconsciously looked at Miss Lin Si and found that her face was calm, without much emotion.
Since she did not raise any objection to this matter, she agreed to it.
The head of the Lin family saw Li Yuan's reaction and waved his hand casually.
"Xiao Si, take Li Yuan with you. You need to pay more attention to his cultivation. As for Lin Shuangcheng and his restless father, you can handle them. A big tree with deep roots is bound to have some termites."
