Chapter 48: Chapter 47 Zhao Qiang's Scheming
Zhao Yuxuan knew clearly in his heart that it was not good to be in such a deadlock with her, so he put on a smiling face again and said, "Hey, don't be so petty. You know, you are my senior sister. A senior sister should be magnanimous. Let's not be so calculating all the time."
Lin Yaxuan couldn't bear it and immediately retorted, "Bah, who is your senior sister? I've asked grandma. She didn't plan to teach you anything at all."
Strangely enough, in the past, although Zhao Yuxuan had an easy - going personality, he was not very enthusiastic about talking. Even when he was with Chen Shihan, he didn't say much. But since he met Lin Yaxuan, his character seemed to be slowly changed by some invisible force, and he himself was completely unaware of this change.
At this time, Zhao Yuxuan continued, "Anyway, even if it's just a so - called senior sister, she is still a senior sister. To be honest, when grandma first asked me to call you that, I was very unconvinced in my heart. But later, I found that you really have the air of a senior sister. Especially today, you look so majestic. I really admire you as my senior sister from the bottom of my heart."
After saying this, he quietly glanced at Lin Yaxuan's expression and then continued, "Well, if you don't like me to call you senior sister, then let's change. I'll be the senior brother and you be the junior sister. After all, I'm older than you."
Lin Yaxuan was, after all, a pure girl. Listening to Zhao Yuxuan's seemingly casual flattering words, she involuntarily showed a trace of complacency on her face. She snorted and said, "Bah, let me call you senior brother. Stop daydreaming. Forget it. You can still keep calling me senior sister."
While they were talking, several young men appeared ahead. The man walking in the front was very burly and handsome. It was Zhao Qiang. When he walked, he looked straight ahead, with a heroic look. Zhao Yuxuan knew clearly in his heart that this Zhao Qiang came to pursue a girl.
Sure enough, Zhao Qiang led the people straight to Lin Yaxuan and said, "Silly girl, do you still remember me?"
Lin Yaxuan seemed to have a good impression of him. She had a smile on her face and nodded gently, saying, "Of course I remember. You were very good at singing antiphonal songs."
Zhao Qiang immediately said, "No matter how good I am at singing antiphonal songs, when I meet you, silly girl, I still have to bow down. In my opinion, not to mention in our New Eighteen Villages, even in the whole Xiling, it's hard to find an opponent who can match you."
Zhao Yuxuan listened on the side and couldn't help but secretly exclaim "Amazing" in his heart. This Zhao Qiang was really a versatile person. His ability to flatter was no worse than his own.
Lin Yaxuan laughed happily again when she heard this. When she laughed, two deep dimples appeared on her snow - white cheeks, looking so beautiful and lovely.
Zhao Qiang stared at Lin Yaxuan, his eyes a little glazed. It took him a while to come to his senses and said, "Silly girl, I just went to ask the judges. They have already decided to let you be the first. Why? It seems that you are about to leave?"
Lin Yaxuan shook her head and said, "I came just for fun. Whether I can be the first or not is not important to me."
Zhao Qiang nodded and then said, "By the way, silly girl, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Zhao Qiang. My father is Li Qiyang, the chieftain of Lingyin Valley. Wizard Li Yuexuan once visited our home as a guest, but she never said that she had such a beautiful granddaughter that could make all the flowers lose their color."
Lin Yaxuan said, "Ah, so you are the son of Chieftain Li Qiyang. My grandma also often mentions him. She says that he is the most capable among the chieftains in our New Eighteen Villages. It seems that you are also very excellent."
A trace of complacency unconsciously showed on Zhao Qiang's brows, but he still said modestly, "Not at all. I just haven't disgraced my father."
Speaking of this, he just noticed Zhao Yuxuan standing beside Lin Yaxuan, so he asked, "Silly girl, is this your friend?"
Zhao Yuxuan had been quietly observing Zhao Qiang. He thought that this Zhao Qiang, besides being burly and handsome, was also very eloquent. He was really not simple. He could even be regarded as a rare talent among Miao men. But for some reason, he just didn't like this person from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, he also keenly sensed a sense of hostility, which was the hostility emanating from Zhao Qiang's eyes. Yes, although he was getting worse and worse off now, he still had delicate features and was also a handsome guy. And he was so close to Lin Yaxuan. It would be strange if Zhao Qiang didn't regard him as a rival in love. He had every reason to believe that a girl like Lin Yaxuan would make Zhao Qiang fall in love at first sight.
After all, Lin Yaxuan was a beauty, a pure beauty, and also had a voice like a lark. Which man wouldn't like such a pure beauty? What's more, this Zhao Qiang, who seemed to have a strong hormonal secretion.
Only to hear Lin Yaxuan say, "No, he is not my friend. He is my grandma's apprentice, my junior brother, named Zhao Yuxuan. He is a Han Chinese."
When Zhao Qiang heard this, the hostility in his eyes seemed to become stronger, but he laughed out loud and said, "So it's Brother Zhao. Nice to meet you. I really didn't expect that Wizard Li Yuexuan would take a Han Chinese as an apprentice. You must be very excellent."
While speaking, he stretched out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Zhao Yuxuan.
Although Zhao Yuxuan didn't like him in his heart, out of politeness, he would not do such an ungraceful thing as refusing to shake hands, so he also stretched out his own hand.
The two men's hands gripped tightly together, really tightly. Zhao Yuxuan clearly felt that Zhao Qiang's thick - jointed fingers were slowly clenching, as if they had turned into steel pliers. Although he had been practicing boxing and kicking every day these days, his hands had not fundamentally changed. They were still so fair and the skin was still so tender, while Zhao Qiang was very strong. Zhao Yuxuan immediately felt a sharp pain in his right hand. But he was powerless to fight back at the moment. He could only clench his teeth tightly and endure the pain without crying out, for he didn't want to lose face in front of everyone.
Just at this moment, Zhao Qiang suddenly let go of his hand. He looked at Zhao Yuxuan, whose face was ashen and whose lips were tightly pursed, and a victor - like look flashed in his eyes. Then he said to Lin Yaxuan, "Silly girl, I'm sorry. Just now when I heard that Brother Zhao was Wizard Li Yuexuan's apprentice, I wanted to test him. Brother Zhao is quite good."
Zhao Yuxuan was glaring at Zhao Qiang angrily. When he heard this, his heart also moved slightly. He thought to himself that this Zhao Qiang was really a very scheming person. What he did just now was obviously to give himself a warning to prove his strength. But he didn't know what the relationship between himself and Lin Yaxuan was exactly. He was afraid that Lin Yaxuan would complain, so he said this first. In this way, even if he said that Zhao Qiang was malicious just now, Lin Yaxuan wouldn't think it was inappropriate. So amazing. If the pure and kind - hearted Lin Yaxuan became the prey of a person like Zhao Qiang, it would be really dangerous.
