"Xiao Jin, have you forgotten about me?

When I was young, I often went to Unsullied Heights to play. At that time, you would often pull me and call me 'Brother Xiang'. "

"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Xiao Jin, you've even forgotten about me."

Sure enough, this person was Sima Xiang!

The mention of 'Brother Xiang' gave Cheng Jin goosebumps. She took a step back, rubbed her arms up and down, and looked at him with disdain. "Mr. Sima, please call me Miss Lian. I'm not familiar with you."

Her words made Sima Xiang feel a little embarrassed. His original intention was to get closer to Cheng Jin and reduce the distance between them after not seeing each other for so many years. However, he didn't expect Cheng Jin to be so straightforward.

However, this person was very good at finding excuses for himself. He laughed and said, "It's all my fault. Ever since I entered school, I haven't gone to look for Xiao Jin to play. Brother Lian, look, Xiao Jin doesn't even recognize me now."

He let out a long sigh, looking hurt and disappointed.

Cheng Jin looked him up and down, and her frown deepened. 'This person looks like he's a bad person!'

Moreover, as soon as she heard the name "Sima Xiang", an alarm called "plot" sounded in her mind.

In the future, she would be framed by Xiang Yi and thrown into this man's bed. That was why she was forced to marry him!

At the thought of this possibility, Cheng Jin wished she could keep Sima Xiang as far away from her as possible. It would be best if he never appeared in front of her for the rest of her life.

With that thought in mind, she continued bluntly, "Your Sima family and our Lian family do have some friendship, but that doesn't mean that you, Sima Xiang, have anything to do with me, Ryōjō Jin!"

"What's more, I don't remember what happened when I was young. Now that I've grown up, men and women should keep their distance. It's inappropriate for you to call me that!"

"Xiao Jin!"

Seeing that Sima Xiang's face was getting stiffer and stiffer, and that he was about to collapse, Lian Chengbi quickly interrupted Cheng Jin and reminded her not to go overboard.

Cheng Jin snorted, and only then did he stop.

Lian Chengbi looked at Sima Xiang and said apologetically, "Brother Sima, don't take it to heart. This girl has been spoiled by us and is very willful....... Brother Sima Xiang, if she offended you in any way......................

Although that was the case, Lianchengbi did not like Sima Xiang calling his sister so intimately from the bottom of his heart.

But the words of the Liancheng Wall spoiled everything. Cheng Jin suddenly remembered his role in the future — the mastermind who forced her to marry Sima Xiang!

The reason was that she had lost her chastity and had to marry Sima Xiang. Otherwise, she would be tarnishing the reputation of Unsullied Heights!

Thinking of this, Cheng Jin secretly gritted her teeth and pinched the soft flesh on Lian Chengbi's waist. Lian Chengbi couldn't help but let out a muffled groan and secretly glared at her.

Sima Xiang also noticed the interaction between the siblings. He didn't know the whole story and thought that Cheng Jin was throwing a tantrum because she was unhappy with Lian Chengbi's scolding.

He thought to himself that Lian Chengbi wasn't lying to him. Only then did he put down the knot in his heart and said, "It seems that I was rude."

"Miss Lian, is this okay?" Sima Xiang bowed to Cheng Jin again.

Then, his face showed a hesitant expression, as if there was something difficult to say and he was hesitating whether to say it or not.

Cheng Jin didn't want to talk to him, but she couldn't win against Lian Chengbi who was his good friend and directly asked. Sima Xiang then said his original purpose.

"Originally, I heard that Miss Lian wanted to stay in this Withered Zen Temple for a night. I wanted to stay with Brother Lian, but now … I can't say it out loud."

"There are a few other young heroes who came with us. Everyone has long heard of Young Master Liam's name and is looking forward to it. We want to take this opportunity today to get to know you."

"I wonder if Brother Lian is willing to do us the honor?"

Since it had already come to this point, Lian Chengbi had no way to refuse. He frowned and was in a difficult position.

"If it's not convenient for Brother Lian, I'll send someone to send Miss Lian back to Unsullied Heights first. Is that okay?"

Sima Xiang thought that he was considerate for Lian Chengbi. "As for the osmanthus flowers that Miss Lian wants, I'll personally send it to you tomorrow. Is that okay?"

When these words came out, Cheng Jin directly exploded. "Young Master Sima, please pour the water out of your brain and wake up to who you are!"

"Your surname is Sima, if you want to meddle, go meddle in your Sima Family's affairs. Since when did an outsider like you have the right to meddle in our Lian Family's affairs!"

She was so angry that she was about to explode. Originally, she and Lianchengbi were happily going on an outing, but she didn't expect to meet such a disappointing person. Not only did he ruin her good mood, but he also ruined their outing plan!

Cheng Jin really regretted that she didn't study medicine properly. If it was like in Wuxia novels where she mastered medicine to perfection, she would sprinkle a handful of powder to make Sima Xiang wake up to who he was!

"Xiao Jin!"

Lian Chengbi scolded again. This time, there was a trace of anger in his tone, but it wasn't clear whether this anger was directed at Cheng Jin or Sima Xiang.

Or maybe it was both.

"There's no need to trouble Brother Sima with this matter."

He put on a perfect smile on his face. "Xiao Jin is a child who doesn't know how to behave. It's just that I've already promised to bring Xiao Jin out to play today, so I can't break my promise to her."

"If you young heroes are interested, I'll set up a vegetarian banquet in Withered Zen Temple in the evening to apologize to you."

"Good!" Sima Xiang was satisfied that he had achieved his goal in the end.

"If that's the case, then we'll respectfully accept your invitation.

Hahahaha! "

He thought of Cheng Jin's disdain for him again. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Cheng Jin would say something to embarrass him again. Sima Xiang knew when to stop, so he found an excuse and left again.

After he left, Cheng Jin angrily shook off Lian Chengbi's arm and turned her back to him, indicating that she was very angry. She needed to be coaxed and hugged to calm down!

Lian Chengbi sighed, took two steps forward, raised his hand and touched Cheng Jin's head, and said helplessly, "What are you angry about?"

"Sima Family and our Lian Family have been good friends for generations. Brother Sima is my good friend, and we grew up together. What you said is indeed a bit too much."

He tried to reason with Cheng Jin with facts.

But was the eldest daughter of the Lian Family someone who could be reasonable?

Cheng Jin pushed away Lian Chengbi's hand and looked up at his eyes. Her eyes were full of complaints, "Brother, you're fierce to me!"

That's right, Cheng Jin's focus was not on reason, not on right or wrong, but on attitude!

Lian Chengbi was stunned. For a moment, he couldn't follow Cheng Jin's train of thought. He subconsciously retorted, "I didn't!"

"You did!" Cheng Jin angrily complained, "Twice!"

She raised her finger and made a gesture of two. In her opinion, this was a big deal.

It was much bigger than Sima Xiang!

"I really didn't."

Lian Chengbi carefully recalled. He really didn't remember being fierce to Cheng Jin. He was such a gentle gentleman, how could he be fierce to others?

Lian Chengbi felt very wronged and wronged. His pair of watery eyes stared at Cheng Jin, looking very pitiful.

His eyes were very beautiful. His upper eyelid was like a whale's arc, drooping down at the end, but slightly raised at the end, which looked a bit charming. When he looked at people with his lower eyelid, he would give people a kind of cold oppressive feeling.

But all in all, when he looked at others, he would always give people a kind of gentle and affectionate feeling. People with weak willpower could even forget who they were and what they wanted to do.

Cheng Jin was such a person with weak willpower. In front of beauty, she only felt that her mind was blank. What she wanted to do, what she wanted to say, everything was thrown to the back of her mind.

Until Lian Chengbi waved his hand in front of her eyes, Cheng Jin struggled to break free from this kind of mood and remembered that she was still at odds with him.

God, how could she still be at odds with him now!

Her cheeks were slightly red. She forced herself to take a breath and continued, "Tell me, Sima Xiang called me Xiao Jin so intimately. Is it wrong for me to not allow him to call me that?"

"Of course it's not bad. Although you two can be considered to have met each other freely, you've grown up now. It's definitely not appropriate to call you that."

Lian Chengbi didn't feel that Cheng Jin was wrong at all. "It's just that you're too direct. You should be more tactful with your words. Look, Brother Sima can't get out of this embarrassing situation."

Lian Chengbi had been educated like this since he was young. He always had to leave some leeway for others. If he and Cheng Jin were in each other's shoes, he would use some method to tactfully make Sima Xiang change his words, instead of being so direct with Cheng Jin.

"Humph!"

These words greatly pleased Cheng Jin. She showed a silly smile and thought in her heart, "My brother is really the best. If I were in his situation, my brother would definitely not be willing to force me to marry Sima Xiang."

She didn't know where her confidence came from, but she just believed in Lian Chengbi.

Seeing her smile, Lian Chengbi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He pinched her face and complained, "Your temper is really like a child's."

It was said that a child's face changed quickly in March. In Lian Chengbi's eyes, no one's face changed faster than Cheng Jin's. One moment she was angry, and the next moment she was smiling.

Seeing that Cheng Jin was about to show him the magic of changing faces, Lian Chengbi hurriedly begged for mercy. "Forget it, forget it. I was wrong. My sister is the cutest!"

These words made Cheng Jin blush all of a sudden. She turned her head and looked away.

A very untimely thought came to her mind. The future first beauty of Wulin, Shen Bijun, was really lucky to get Lian Chengbi's sincerity.
