“It really is such a melodramatic plot. Looks like there are melons to eat.”
After Lin Tian heard Liu Qing’s words, he was even more certain of the future developments. He looked like he was watching a show.
However, Lin Yu’er, beside him, was not as calm as he was. She was outraged as she glared at Liu Qing in the main hall.
Lin Haoyu, who Liu Qing had annulled, was Lin Yu’er’s biological brother.
When the members of the Lin family in the main hall heard Liu Qing’s words, they were all stunned on the spot. The elders of the Lin family knew about the engagement between Lin Haoyu and Liu Qing.
This was precisely because they knew that they would compliment Liu Qing so much just now.
“Liu Qing, are you joking with Your Words?”
Lin Zhenshan put away his smile just now. With a serious expression, he took the initiative to probe.
“I never joke about my marriage.”
Liu Qing’s attitude was firm, and she shouted sternly,
“The current Lin family has declined and suffered in this small border town. Now Lin Haoyu has lost his cultivation and become a waste.”
“And now I have joined the number one sect in the Qing Xuan continent. I’m destined to soar to the sky.”
“The engagement with Lin Haoyu is a hindrance to me. It will only affect my future development.”
“Moreover, the engagement between Lin Haoyu and me was made privately before I was born. You didn’t ask for my permission.”
“Therefore, I came to the Lin family to cancel this ridiculous engagement personally.”
After hearing Liu Qing’s words, some of the members of the Lin family in the main hall had ugly expressions, while some of them were gloating.
“As expected, the next step should be to take out a treasure to entice Lin Haoyu to agree to the annulment of the marriage.”
Lin Tian muttered softly. His eyes were filled with an expression exactly as he had expected.
Lin Zhenshan, seated in a high position, furrowed his brows tightly, his expression displeased. No matter what, his Lin family was still a large family clan. Now that the woman annulled the marriage, he could not bear to lose face no matter what.
Immediately after, Lin Zhenshan asked with a heavy expression,
“Did your parents go through your parents when you came to the Lin family to break off the engagement?”
When the Lin family had not yet declined, Liu Qing’s family had been suppressed by other competing families. It had already reached the point of bankruptcy.
During the crisis, the Liu family sought the help of the Lin family, which was how they were able to get out of their predicament and use the situation to develop rapidly.
Later on, to repay the Lin family’s help and to deepen the relationship between the two families, the infant Lin Haoyu and Liu Qing made a marriage contract.
“My parents knew and agreed, but because of their previous friendship with you, they didn’t follow me to the Lin family.”
Liu Qing’s expression was calm as she said this.
“Haha, the relationship between the Liu family and us, the Lin family, don’t dare to climb high.”
Lin Zhenshan suddenly sneered at himself. As the head of the family, he had already seen through the fickleness between people.
“Since your parents have already agreed to support your choice, I can’t say anything more.”
“But if you want to break off the engagement, you have to see if my son Haoyu agrees.”
“If he doesn’t agree, this marriage will not change.”
Although the Lin family had declined, the family’s backbone still existed. How could Lin Zhenshan tolerate being ridden on the head by a little girl like Liu Qing?
After saying that, Lin Zhenshan said to the middle-aged man beside him, “Lin Fu, go and see where Haoyu is.”
“Okay, patriach.”
Just as he said that a stern voice suddenly came from outside the main hall.
“There’s no need to trouble uncle Fu. I’m already here.”
A handsome youth walked into the main hall and stopped in front of Liu Qing.
It turned out that after Lin Haoyu knew that his child’s betrothed, Liu Qing, had come to the Lin family today, he, with his meticulous thoughts, quickly guessed that the other party had come with ill intentions.
Hence, when he arrived at the main hall, he did not directly enter but instead eavesdropped outside the main hall.

Lin Haoyu’s sudden appearance attracted everyone’s attention. Some of the elders began to whisper among themselves.
“This young family head sure knows how to find the right time. Why did he only appear when Liu Qing said he would break off the engagement?”
“Hehe, I just don’t know how he will deal with this awkward situation.”
“It hasn’t been a day or two since Lin Haoyu became a good-for-nothing. What is this bit of humiliation?”
Hearing the discussions between the Lin family, Liu Qing was confident that the young man in front of her was her fiancé, Lin Haoyu, whom she had never met before. She immediately said,
“You came just in time. As long as you sign the agreement to end the marriage, I will give you a treasure that can repair your body and allow you to cultivate again.”
As she spoke, Liu Qing flipped her right palm upward. As the storage ring on her finger flickered, a green, spiritual fruit the size of a pigeon egg appeared in her palm.
“This is a green jade green heart fruit, a black grade spirit herb. It has the effect of rebuilding one’s foundation. It is extremely rare.”
“The one in my hand is a thousand years old and is even rarer.”
After hearing Liu Qing’s introduction, everyone from the Lin family stared at the green jade green heart fruit in her hand with their eyes wide open.
Spirit herbs were divided into four grades: Heaven, earth, black, and yellow. The Heaven grade was the best, and the yellow grade was the least.
The highest spiritual medicine that had appeared in Jade Lotus town was only a black grade spiritual medicine. Moreover, it was a rare spiritual medicine that was hard to come by for ten years. There was no market for it.
Liu Qing’s first move was an earth-grade spiritual medicine. How could the members of the Lin family covet it?
Even Lin Zhenshan’s gaze was slightly wavering at this moment. He wanted to go up and persuade Lin Haoyu to accept this fruit.
However, Lin Haoyu was unmoved by this. He did not seem to mind.
After seeing Lin Haoyu’s attitude, Liu Qing’s eyes revealed some dissatisfaction. She had already taken out such a treasure, but the other party was indifferent.
Then, she continued, “Presumably, the current Lin family wouldn’t be able to take out this green jade green heart fruit. Only if you consume this spirit fruit and restore your foundation you might have a chance to restore the family’s glory in the future.”
“Moreover, even if you, Lin Haoyu, don’t agree, I, Liu Qing, will definitely not fulfill the marriage contract and marry a good-for-nothing like you.”
At this time, Lin Haoyu’s cousin, Lin Xinran, jumped out and said in a strange tone,
“Lin Haoyu, you’d better agree. In any case, your current appearance is not worthy of sister Liu Qing.”
“It’s better to accept this spirit fruit and restore your foundation. Why not?”
Lin Xinran’s cultivation was at the advanced stage of the body strengthening stage. Her age was one year different from Lin Haoyu’s. Still, the former was far inferior to the latter in terms of talent cultivation.
This was also why Lin Haoyu had often stolen Lin Xinran’s limelight since he was young, and Lin Xinran had been eyeing him ever since.
“Xinran, stop fooling around.”
Lin Xinran’s father, Lin Zhenhai, called out softly.
After hearing Lin Zhenhai’s words, Lin Xinran did not say anything else because her goal had been achieved.
Lin Xinran’s words directly exposed Lin Haoyu’s situation, and Lin Haoyu began to fall into a difficult decision.
The atmosphere in the hall immediately became awkward. Everyone was waiting for Lin Haoyu’s decision.
If Lin Haoyu accepted Liu Qing’s spirit fruit, it would be a slap to the Lin family’s face.
If he didn’t accept it, Liu Qing would obviously not continue to fulfill the engagement. The Lin family’s face would still not be any better.
In any case, no matter what Lin Haoyu’s choice was, he would definitely be criticized by the Lin family in the future. His lineage would definitely lose the support of the Lin family in the future.
Such an outcome was what Lin Xinran wanted.
“That Liu Qing is really going too far. No, I want to go in and give her a good scolding and stand up for my brother.”
Seeing her brother’s sad look, Lin Yu’er was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves and wanted to rush into the main hall.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Tian grabbed Lin Yu’er’s hand and said calmly.
“Don’t be so agitated. What can you do if you go in?”
“Can you beat that Liu Qing?”
As soon as she finished speaking, an electronic synthesized notification sounded in Lin Tian’s mind.
