978 Chapter 978
No matter how much he doted on his daughter, Master Lin exploded.
“You want to marry that useless thing? The Lin family is so powerful that we can get any handsome man they want. Why do we have to be so obsessed with this man? Is your brain damaged?”
He found it hard to imagine.
What kind of bewitching potion did that young boy give his daughter? His daughter was actually this crazy.
“No, Father, you don’t understand the value of Jiu Zhu. No matter what, I’ve already made up my mind. If you insist on changing my mind, don’t blame me for cutting you off.”
Lin Shu raised her head and looked straight at Master Lin.
Today, she was determined to make her father agree to her marriage with Jiu Zhu.
The chopping board was smashed in an instant, and the fragments fell to the ground. Master Lin was infuriated.
“Get lost. The Lin family doesn’t have such a useless daughter like you!”
As he spoke, his feet involuntarily retreated, and he almost lost his balance.
The servants outside were alarmed by the commotion and hurriedly came in to comfort Master Lin.
“Master, the eldest miss didn’t think straight for a moment and said the wrong thing, but that’s not what she meant.”
“Calm down. Don’t get sick because of this.”
Master Lin felt a little better.
However, Lin Shu was even more aggressive.
“I’ll say it here today. Jiu Zhu will definitely be your son-in-law. Otherwise, I’ll leave this house and never come back.”
After saying this, she ignored the dissuasion of others and left angrily.
She felt that her father was simply unreasonable. She just wanted to be with the person she loved.
Seeing his daughter’s retreating figure, Master Lin’s anger rose again. He panted non-stop for a moment and anxiously asked someone to bring him some medicine.
This commotion could not help but attract the attention of the others in the Lin family.
When Lin Siqing heard the details, he could not help but smash his wooden chopping board.
He really did not expect his sister to do such a thing, and it was because of Jiu Zhu.
Killing intent rose in his eyes.
It seemed that he could not keep Jiu Zhu alive.
After Lin Shu went back, she proudly told Jiang Ming that Master Lin had agreed to their marriage. Jiang Ming immediately felt a headache coming on.
He did not even say that he wanted to marry this young miss. Why did this young miss go and propose marriage herself?
After finding an excuse, Jiang Ming left Lin Shu and went to the room where Sikong Wuyuan and the snake spirit were.
The snake spirit had already woken up. When she heard that Jiang Ming was going to marry the eldest daughter of the Lin family, Lin Shu, she could not help but panic.
“She is not an ordinary person. With the methods of those beautiful men around her, you will have a hard time in the future.”
As she spoke, Jiang Ming had already walked in.
“It’s not a matter of whether I’m good or bad now. It’s that I don’t want to marry her at all. She is pestering me.”
Sikong Wuyuan could not help but tease him.
“I see that the eldest daughter of the Lin family likes you. Why don’t you agree? However, it’s a problem for us to go out now. We can’t find a way out of this wilderness.”
“Isn’t that so?” The snake spirit sighed. “That barrier can’t be broken at all. Why don’t you just pretend to marry the eldest daughter of the Lin family? Would she still marry you here?”
Jiang Ming said helplessly, “Let’s not talk about anything else first. Just this Master Lin alone definitely won’t agree to me marrying the eldest daughter of the Lin family. What are you guys thinking? Even if I agree, the marriage won’t be settled. I think you can forget about it.”
Sikong Wuyuan said mysteriously, “There seems to be an uninhabited restricted area here. It’s not really a restricted area. It should be a small secret room. I heard those servants discussing it, but I don’t know if there’s any. However, this might be a way for us to get out.”
“You know a lot of gossip. Is it reliable?”
The snake spirit looked at Sikong Wuyuan suspiciously.
She often hung out with Sikong Wuyuan, but she did not know as much as Sikong Wuyuan.
Sikong Wuyuan was speechless. “Who asked you not to listen to in? I feel that your reaction is slow.”
He shook his head.
“Slow reaction? Do you have any side effects now?”
Jiang Ming remembered the fragrance and asked again.
He thought that the fragrance would only make people lose their pulse, but he did not expect there to be side effects.
Thinking of this, he went forward and took Sikong Wuyuan’s pulse without caring about his wishes. In the end, he found that Sikong Wuyuan’s pulse was back.
He was shocked and took a step back.
“What?” Seeing Jiang Ming’s actions, Sikong Wuyuan asked in confusion, “Your Majesty, were you checking my pulse just now? Is there something wrong with me?”
Jiang Ming explained everything that had happened just now.
The snake spirit quickly pulled up her sleeves. “Try mine. I wake up slower than Sikong Wuyuan. I might not have a pulse.”
Jiang Ming felt that it made sense. He immediately took HER pulse and was confused again.
“This is really strange. Your pulse is indeed not there.”
“Is there a possibility that I’m about to die?”
The snake spirit began to think wildly.
Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“If you were dying, you would have died a long time ago.”
“Maybe it’s a kind of incubation period. After the poison takes effect, I’ll die.”
The snake spirit did not think that Jiang Ming was right and was dejected.
Was she going to die now?
Sikong Wuyuan shrugged. “I told you that you wouldn’t die. You didn’t believe me and insisted on thinking that you would die. What can you do? I think you shouldn’t think too much about it. You definitely won’t die.”
“Thank you for your comfort, but I’ve been feeling dizzy recently. I can’t see clearly. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so sure. I know that Jiu Zhu is a G.o.dly doctor, but G.o.dly doctors also make mistakes sometimes, don’t they?”
“You don’t seem to be poisoned. Your symptoms are really strange. Let me take a look again.”
Jiang Ming released his spiritual energy, and the light on his body immediately enveloped the snake spirit.
The snake spirit felt warm, and her eyes could not help but light up.
Sikong Wuyuan was looking at this scene.
He had a vague feeling that Jiu Zhu would give him a different surprise this time.
After withdrawing his spiritual energy, Jiang Ming also roughly understood the symptoms of the snake spirit.
“This is the aftereffect of the fragrance. You’ll get better soon, but your body will be a little weak. You’ll be fine after eating this.”
