C9 Little Test of Strength

"Ruo Yun, don't speak nonsense. She is also your sister." Lin Ruo Xi was also stunned when she saw Lin Ruo Yin and the others suddenly jump out. However, she reacted quickly and immediately scolded them in a feigned anger.

"That's right. Look at how shabby she is dressed. Maybe she is a beggar who pretended to be her!" Lin Ruo Yun was a little frightened when she saw Lin Ruo Yin's calm demeanor. After all, she was the one who had spoken ill of Lin Ruo Yin.

However, when she heard Lin Ruo Xi's reprimand, she could not help but raise her voice and mock her. However, she did not say that Lin Ruo Yin was ugly. After all, anyone could tell that although Lin Ruo Yin was dressed in simple linen clothes, her temperament was not inferior to Lin Ruo Xi's.

"Ruo Yun," Lin Ruo Xi saw that Lin Ruo Yin did not show any signs of excitement when she heard Lin Ruo Yun's words. She kept her head down and looked calm. She was about to let Lin Ruo Yin test her strength, but she could not see through her.

Lin Ruo Yin could not help but sneer in her heart. She did not hear any hint of blame in Lin Ruo Xi's words. This sister of hers did a good job. If she had not been deceived by her appearance in her previous life, she would not have ended up in such a state.

"This is the little sister who just entered the residence, right? She is really beautiful. If you are not sensible and speak nonsense, don't take it to heart. Since you have returned, you are a family. It is not good to be divided." Lin Ruo Xi took a step forward and lifted Lin Ruo Yin's hand with her fair and delicate hands.

The corners of her mouth curled into a gentle and affectionate smile. However, other than Lin Ruo Yin, no one could see the smile in her eyes. The Steward Mammy heaved a sigh of relief when he saw how smooth Lin Ruo Xi's words were. He was even more impressed with Lin Ruo Xi. The Steward Mammy was already like this, so there was no need for anyone else to say anything. They had already treated Lin Ruo Xi as a fairy.

A cold glint flashed across Lin Ruo Yin's eyes. Was she a fairy? Then she had to expose her true colors. She was a viper, no matter how beautiful she was.

Lin Ruo Yin shrank back, as if she wanted to pull her hand out of Lin Ruo Xi's grasp. Everyone was puzzled when they saw this scene. Only when they took a closer look did they realize that the two of them were holding hands, and their hands were covered in blood. Even the corners of their sleeves were stained with blood.

And all of this blood was flowing out of Lin Ruo Yin's injured fingertips. The broken wounds were reopened, and her ten fingers were connected to her heart. Lin Ruo Yin's face was filled with fear and pain, causing everyone to be shocked.

"Eldest Miss, the Third Miss's hand is injured. You should let her go first." The Steward Mammy had naturally known that Lin Ruo Yin's hands were covered in wounds all along the way, but now it seemed that Lin Ruo Yin's wounds had split open after she was held by Lin Ruo Xi. Furthermore, Lin Ruo Yin wanted to break free, but she was held by Lin Ruo Xi and refused to let go.

But Lin Ruo Xi had nothing to say at this moment. It was not because she was reluctant to let go of Lin Ruo Yin. She did not even know what was going on. Lin Ruo Yin was already covered in blood, and when she tried to let go of her hand, she realized that although her hands seemed to be rejecting her, they were actually holding her hand tightly. She could not let go.

Hearing the words of the Steward Mammy, Lin Ruo Xi also understood Lin Ruo Yin's intention. She wanted to break away from Lin Ruo Yin even more, but how could Lin Ruo Yin let go so easily? This made it seem as if Lin Ruo Xi was unwilling to let go.

Hearing the discussions of the maidservants, Lin Ruo Xi became anxious. When she saw the figure that appeared not far away, she could no longer remain calm. She pushed Lin Ruo Yin away with all her might. The person who appeared at the corner was the Grand Lady, the real person in charge of the Great Scholar Mansion.

But she never expected that Lin Ruo Yin would wait for this moment. The moment Lin Ruo Xi pushed her away, she also let go of her hand. Lin Ruo Xi was not weak, and Lin Ruo Yin's entire body fell into the lotus pond behind her.
