C16 Farewell

"Miss, shall we go?" Yan Luo looked at her slightly wet skirt. It was too painful to bear, so it reminded her.

"Die, farewell." After hearing Yan Luo's reminder, he smiled at her to appease her, then turned to Liu Yi Chen and said.

"Do you need me to send you back?" Liu Yi Chen really couldn't bear to part after just seeing her, so he looked for a reason.

"I won't trouble you then." Li Die was in a state of panic. She just wanted to ask for a reason.

"If there is anything I can help you with, call the maid here to look for me." Liu Yi Chen was worried, and he reminded her repeatedly.

"Thank you, Young Master." Now that she heard him say this, her heart didn't feel happy. She numbly nodded her head and ran backwards, bringing her Yan Luo. She repeatedly warned herself to remain calm, but her messy footsteps betrayed her.

"Miss, please slow down and wait for the Yan Luo." Yan Luo ran after her.

"Young Master?" Leng Yun called out with some worry.

"It's alright. I believe that she can solve her own problem. Let's go back!" Li Die had always been a tough girl in his heart.

"Yes."

Originally, he had come out this time for her sake. Since she had already gone back, there was no point in staying.

"Second sister, look over there?" Li Rou Ping stretched out her slender and smooth finger and pointed at a pearl step that was placed on top of a stall as she spoke.

Li Manting followed the direction of her fingertips and saw that the pearl on the ground was swaying.

There were only a few scattered pieces of jewelry on the stall, a hairpin carved from rosewood, a silver hairpin shaped like a lotus flower, and a few pairs of earrings.

The few people who were used to seeing some good stuff didn't have much interest in these things at the moment. Only Pearl Step, who was placed in the middle, raised Li Rou Ping's interest.

Li Wanlan, who was left behind, also rushed up at this moment. She stood beside Li Manting and looked at the two of them with curiosity in her heart.

Just as Li Rou Ping's finger was about to touch Bu Huang, a snow-white slender hand grabbed it.

Li Rou Ping looked up along the hand and saw a man dressed in a green robe standing in front of her. His eyes, which had been cloudy from years of mixing with the girl's, were currently scanning the three sisters with a lustful gaze.

It scared Li Rou Ping so much that she retreated behind Li Wan Lan, revealing only her head.

Li Wanlan, on the other hand, recognized the man in front of her. He was the current Third Young Master of the Lin Clan, Lin Haozhi.

He frequently went to the fireworks with a group of his friends, and he even tried to take advantage of them on the streets. However, because of his father, Lin Taibai, the girls of other families were all troubled, and had no choice but to swallow their own grievances.

Now, the pure and innocent girl who had been living in the Bianliang County had fled far away when she heard Lin Haozhi's name. She was afraid that she would accidentally be taken advantage of by the Third Young Master Lin.

"I wonder if Sir Lin has anything to say to stop us three sisters?" Li Wanlan suppressed the fear in her heart and gave her two younger sisters a comforting smile. The soft and delicate soup symbolically patted Li Manting's small hands, which were tightly grasping her sleeves, signaling the two of them not to be nervous.

"So, it's the three young mistresses from Scholar Han Lin's family. I have long heard of the young mistresses from Scholar Han Lin's family. All of them were beautiful like flowers and jade. Now, it is as I expected." Lin Haozhi's pair of slightly turbid eyes were full of lust as they stared intently at Li Wanlan, causing people to feel an uncontrollable disgust. However, he didn't know it, so he pretended to be amorous as he waved the fan in his hand.

The few men that stood behind Lin Hao also swept their eyes at them with malicious intent.

Li Rou Ping pulled on Li Manting's sleeve, which was in front of her, as if she was afraid. She signaled Li Rou to hurry up and leave.

Li Manting only turned her head back and glanced at him, then she vigilantly stared at the people in front of her while wailing in her heart.

"Brother Lin, look at these beautiful young beauties. They taste even better than the young ladies of the Spring Festival!" A man, who was standing below Lin Hao, spoke with a filthy tone.

When Li Wan Lan and the other two heard his foul language, their small faces were already so red that it seemed as though blood would drip out at any moment. It was unknown whether they were angry or ashamed.

"Please take note, Young Master, that although the status of the three of us sisters is not that noble, we are not comparable to the ladies of the Spring Festival." Li Wanlan's eyes were blazing as she glared fiercely at the man who had just spoken.

The man seemed to want to say something else, but was cut off by Lin Haozhi's fan. Amongst these people, only Lin Haozhi had the highest status. Thus, it was only right for them to take Lin Haozhi as their leader.

"Naturally, beauties cannot be compared with the ordinary powder of the Spring Festival." Lin Haozhi played with the step in his hand that he had snatched away just now as he looked at her with a lustful expression.

"If young master is fine, please step aside." Li Wan Lan didn't want him to keep pestering her, lest he ruin her maiden name.

He wanted to take the two of them to the side and circle around them, but he didn't expect to be stopped by the man who had just insulted them.

Li Rou Ping looked at Li Wan Lan in fear, seeming to ask how she was going to deal with it.

Li Wan Lan didn't say anything, she only turned around and walked towards the back, her mind was focused on how to get rid of these people's harassment.

However, he didn't expect to be intercepted by the others standing behind Lin Haohe. As he saw the few people blocking his path, he couldn't help but feel a surge of rage in his heart. He turned around and angrily looked at Lin Haozhi as he inquired, "Sir Lin, what is the meaning of this?" There was also a hint of anger in his voice.

"I don't have any other intentions, I just want to invite the beauties to join me in swimming the lake." While he was speaking, Lin Haozhi took the opportunity to take a few more steps forward. Then, he took the pearl step forward and inserted it into Li Wanlan's hair.

He made a "tsk tsk" sound and said, "As expected, jewelry still has to be made with beauties. Brother Li, what do you think?" After Lin Haozhi finished speaking, he deliberately asked the man who was blocking her path.

When the man heard Lin Haozhi's question, a lewd smile immediately appeared on his face. His eyes even continuously scanned the chests of the three of them, as if he wanted to swallow them whole.

"Brother Lin is right." The man didn't seem to be satisfied with the answer. He even whistled at Li Manting.

This scared Li Manting so much that she quickly took a step back. Unexpectedly, she stepped on a rock and threw it onto the ground.

The man at the side would never let go of such a good opportunity. He took a stride forward and hugged Li Manting, who was about to fall to the ground.
