Chapter 2140
Since Bai Ruorong’s recovery, not only has her face and figure become more perfect.
Her attainments in martial arts had even been boasted many times by the old lady in public.
Such a perfect girl, coupled with her status as the daughter of the Bai family’s direct lineage.
Naturally, she attracted numerous admirers.
What she didn’t expect was that the family had only just agreed on how to propose to the Bai family.
But then they let that country bumpkin Lin Mo take the lead.
With such a mindset, the young generation of the major powers looked at Lin Mo with a gradually unkind look.
A pair of envious, jealous and discontented eyes wandered back and forth across Lin Mo’s soundstage like knives.
They seemed to think that they could scare him to death if they just stared at him with wide eyes.
Noticing these resentful gazes, Lin Mo was unmoved.
It was just that the centre of his heart secretly smiled bitterly, not thinking that this little girl, Bai Ruorong, had such a great charm.
“Lin Mo, I’ll go and find Grandma first.
You wait over there in the parlour for a while.”
With that, Bai Ruorong hurriedly left.
She had feelings for Lin Mo.
Everyone in the family knew more or less about it.
The old lady, on the other hand, was quite displeased with Lin Mo and Bai Ruorong’s affair.
If Bai Ruorong had been accompanying Lin Mo.
The old lady’s side would definitely be even more angry.
After the other party’s silhouette disappeared from sight.
Lin Mo also walked in the direction Bai Ruorong pointed.
Only when he arrived at the meeting room.
This room was already filled with people.
There was no need to guess, looking at most of the people’s lofty appearance, it was obvious that they were also from a large number of people.
“Yo, isn’t this the venerable Lin Mo of the Canton Province?
Why don’t you say hello to an old friend when you come to the capital.
Come, come, take a seat over here.”
The person who spoke was none other than Xie Qianshan.
As his words fell, he stood up and walked over to an empty seat.
“Little friend Lin, do you say it’s a coincidence.
This empty seat, surprisingly, is your Southern Realm’s Fifth Master Xue.
Since we are all old-timers, I guess if you sit and rest for a while first, the fifth master can’t say anything, right?”
Saying that, Xie Qianshan pointed towards his body, and the seat visited was none other than Master Xue Wu’s guest card.
At this point, Lin Mo did not say anything back.
A little ploy like this was not very effective except to disgust people.
It was just that although he had no words.
The people of the other forces did not intend to let him off the hook…
“I slightly disagree with this move by the Xie family head.
What kind of person is in what kind of position.
Is he worthy of sitting with us, just because he is a small provincial prince?”
The words fell, and Xie Qianshan pretended to look as if he had come to a sudden realization.
“Sorry, sorry. It was my improper consideration in this case.
It’s just that, since all comers are guests, he can’t stay standing, right?”
The others beside him followed suit and echoed.
“Master Xie, there is nothing wrong with this statement.
Since that is the case, we might as well let this honorable man from the wide province rest there for a while.”
After speaking, the person who spoke then pointed to the steps of the outer gate.
When this was said, there was instant laughter.
“That’s right, that’s right, after all, the steps of the Bai family are not for ordinary people to sit on.
Lin Mo, you have this honour today, so cherish it.”
These people who were targeting Lin Mo were naturally all planning to take advantage of Old Lady Bai’s birthday banquet and intended to talk about the marriage proposal.
As for Lin Mo, even a country bumpkin from the Southern Realm dared to attempt to climb up the ladder, did he deserve it?
It was at that moment.
Outside the door, however, came a voice.
“As elders, so many of you are making things difficult for a junior.
I am blushing for you all.
What, the more you live, the more you go back, and now you don’t even want your old faces?”
This remark was made.
The crowd that had originally laughed at Lin Mo instantly turned dark in the face.
Just as they were about to see who had dared to be so arrogant.
The figure had already stepped into the hall.
Upon seeing the person who had come, the faces of those who had originally taken their seats suddenly showed surprise.
“Nanba Tian, you actually have the guts to come to the capital.”
Although they were words of accusation.
However, the spectator’s appearance and tone of voice were merely stern.
