The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth - Chapter 255
255. Comparing Prestige
This familiar face, familiar voice, familiar curses.
Lin Nuo was shocked, thinking that the territory of this great Pu Han country was not small, how could he still run into her.
It’s her, the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, pfft, the Holy Maiden with the Golden Body Protection, naked… what was it called again?
Naked. Body?
By the way, I remember your home is quite far from here, how did you pop up here like a ghost?
But thinking about her appearance at the border back then, it doesn’t seem strange.
I remember this little girl is a grand lady with a lot of pomp, with a group of spirited young family soldiers at her disposal.
But, where are the soldiers?
Could it be that you were abducted here?
This time I won’t save you.
“Is it you?”
“It’s me, Lin Daxia, you still remember me.”
Luo Xiaoxue put her hands behind her back, tilted her head slightly, and was naturally very excited to see the Lin Daxia she missed day by day.
Fate brings people together from a thousand miles away, she didn’t expect to run into Lin Nuo before even reaching the Lin family while traveling incognito.
“Don’t remember, what’s your name again? Naked…?”
“Luo Yi, Lin Daxia still remembers my name is Luo Yi.”
“……”
Which ear of yours heard me say I remember your name?
Also, can you speak more politely, and stop cursing?
Luo Yi, seems like that’s the name, I remember now.
“Forget it.”
Lin Nuo didn’t intend to dwell on whether he remembered or not, you say I remember, then I remember.
Lin Nuo asked:
“What are you doing here? Were you captured again, lost?”
“No, Lin Daxia.”
“Stop, just call me Lin Nuo.”
“Then Lin Nuo Daxia.”
“……Why do you always add Daxia after my name?”
“Because you deserve the title of Daxia.”
Luo Xiaoxue continued to tilt her head cutely and giggled.
Lin Nuo found this remark strange.
It was as if she was saying, “You deserve the title of ‘idiot’.”
Goodness, you noble families have a way with insults.
“Can we drop the ‘hero’ part?”
“Then I’ll call you Lin Hero?”
“Lin Bear, maybe.”
“Alright, Lin Hero it is.”
“Are you even listening to me?”
Lin Nuo felt helpless. Is there something wrong with your head? He really wanted to give her a smack.
“Stop flattering, let’s compromise. Young Master Lin, just call me that, nothing else, or I’ll take my leave.”
“Alright, alright, Young Master Lin. Isn’t it the Lin family’s grand celebration recently? I came by invitation.”
“Are you sure you weren’t tricked into coming?”
“No, no, I came voluntarily. Although my family isn’t very wealthy, we’re still a minor noble family. It’s an honor to be invited by the Lin family to the banquet.”
“Invited? By whom? Which Lin family member invited you?”
“Not by anyone in particular, just the family. Like sects, royal families, they all send representatives. I’m the representative. By the way, Young Master Lin, you’re the third young master of the Lin family. Did you invite anyone else?”
“No,” Lin Nuo refused.
“Good!”
“Good what?”
“Nothing… I was just saying this city is nice, and the Lin family’s celebration is nice too.”
Luo Xiaoxue smiled foolishly. Lin Nuo didn’t invite anyone, which meant he had no close friends.
It was said that he was not yet married. If he had someone he liked, he would have invited them to the banquet.
Family events like this, one would naturally attend with their partner.
Since he didn’t invite anyone, he must not have a partner!
This is great. It means I still have a good chance.
Attending the banquet with him feels like a red string connecting us. This is fate.
“Why didn’t Young Master Lin invite anyone to the banquet? The Lin family’s grand celebration is a joyous occasion.”
“I don’t have the right.”
“No right…? How could that be? You’re the third young master of the Lin family, you have status. How could you not have the right?”
“I just don’t. Why so many questions?”
“Dear customer, are you still buying? There’s only one pack left.”
The shopkeeper interrupted their conversation. He didn’t want to disturb them, but he had to do business. He couldn’t sell dog food under the guise of selling pastries. He promised to sell pastries, not dog food.
“Buy it!”
The two spoke in unison, then turned to look at each other.
Luo Xiaoxue: It seems that Lin Daxia and I have a tacit understanding.
Lin Nuo: What the heck? This little girl wants to fight me for a pack of meat floss pastries?
“How about you two split it? There are two pastries in one pack, one for each of you.”
“Alright, alright, let’s split it.”
Luo Xiaoxue quickly paid the money and took the last pack of meat floss pastries from the shopkeeper.
Sharing a pack of meat floss pastries, how romantic.
It would be even better if they shared one pastry.
Best if they ate it mouth to mouth.
In those martial arts romance novels, isn’t there a similar scene where they feed medicine to save someone? Replacing it with meat floss pastries would work too.
Lin Nuo: “…”
Who wants to share a pack with you? I want them all.
But it’s not good to fight a weak girl for pastries on the street. Forget it, let’s compromise, one for each.
“Here, Young Master Lin, one for you, one for me, we make a pair.”
Luo Xiaoxue smiled brightly, took out a meat floss pastry from the package, and handed it to Lin Nuo.
“Here’s the money.”
“No need, Young Master Lin has done me a great favor, don’t be polite with me. By the way, there’s an inn nearby, Young Master Lin, can we sit and talk?”
“No.”
Lin Nuo refused, but suddenly saw a large group of guards escorting a noble fat man coming over.
What a grand scene.
“Forget it, let’s go.”
Lin Nuo changed his mind and entered the nearby inn with Luo Xiaoxue.
He didn’t want to confront those people directly, but he didn’t want to retreat either, so he went to the inn next door.
Luo Xiaoxue naturally also noticed the pompous and arrogant fat man and his many guards.
From noble mtl dot com
Yue Tian, a high-ranking official with great power, extravagant, wasteful, and particular about appearances. Luo Xiaoxue had heard of him long ago, but this was the first time she saw him in person.
“Make way, make way, Lord Yue is visiting, you commoners, make way!”
The guards shouted fiercely, and the commoners quickly made way. The wide road was occupied by their group, and the commoners could only hide on both sides.
Luo Xiaoxue was very angry. After all, it was just a banquet, but it felt like they were entering the city after conquering it. The humble commoners could only obey orders and retreat to the sides.
The officials did not lead by example, but instead, they acted high and mighty, completely detached from the people.
“He is not the first one.”
Lin Nuo found a seat and sat down. The waiter quickly came to make tea for him. He continued, “This Da Qing, it’s all about who has the grandest display.”
“So excessive, such a wide road, do they really need to push the commoners to the sides?”
“Excessive?”
Lin Nuo sneered coldly and poured a cup of tea for Luo Xiaoxue. “Survival of the fittest, they have the capital.”
“But the commoners are the foundation. Even if they have the capital, they don’t need to be so ostentatious.”
“Tell that to the ruling Luo family, not to me.”
Lin Nuo said as he took a sip of tea.
Damn, it’s hot.
