Chapter 82: 082. Didn’t Expect You to be Like This, Su Meimei (First Update)

Translator: 549690339

Before long, Su Liang took down two black-clothed men and entangled with two others.

Aside from being startled, Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing, father and daughter, who were unharmed, each leaned on the other as they moved aside to watch Su Liang’s agile figure and fierce moves, their faces full of astonishment.

“Dad, how is Sister Su so amazing? She knows medical skills, martial arts, and her cooking is delicious. Isn’t it unreasonable for Brother Ning not to like her?” Lin Xueqing asked blankly.

Lin Shuzhi nodded, “Indeed.”

“With such an amazing Sister Su cooking delicious food for Brother Ning every day, and him not being moved, I think he either has a problem with his brain or his taste.” Lin Xueqing’s eyes were full of admiration as she watched Su Liang.

Soon, Su Liang took down the third black-clothed man, and the fourth one, realizing the situation was turning against him, wanted to escape but had no chance.

These four men’s martial arts were not bad, but they were not even as good as the third-rate assassins at Yanyun Building.

In fact, if they joined forces, they would be more than enough to take down Lin Shuzhi’s father and daughter.

Unfortunately, they met Su Liang today.

An opponent who had been professionally trained as a real assassin by Ning Jing.

At first, the four men thought they had taken on an easy task, arriving at their destination during the day, and deciding to take action when they saw Lin Shuzhi near the Qianshan Academy, thinking there was no need to wait until night.

As a result, the “weak little maid” in their eyes transformed into a cold-blooded female devil, more like an assassin than they were!

After the four men were all seriously injured and fell to the ground, Su Liang sheathed her sword and looked at Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing, “Are you two alright?”

Lin Xueqing looked at Su Liang’s blood-stained clothes and her twin-blade wielding figure, unconsciously shrinking back a little, feeling terrified, awe-inspiring, and really, really cool!

Lin Shuzhi took a deep breath, “We’re fine. Are you hurt?”

Su Liang shook her head too, “No. How does Master want to deal with these people?”

Lin Shuzhi let go of Lin Xueqing, walked up to look at the first man who had shouted and asked coldly, “Who is your master?”

“Someone you commoners can’t afford to offend!” The masked man gritted his Su Liang thought to herself, it’s probably the royal family then.

Lin Shuzhi, thinking of something, sighed, “Since things have come to this point, let’s send them on their way!”

If they were released, Su Liang would be exposed to certain people. She had no special background, but her family feud involved the royal family.

Lin Xueqing was shocked at her usually upright and gentle father’s other side, but didn’t say anything. Hearing Lin Shuzhi calling her, she quickly ran over and let him lead her forward.

“What about Sister Su?” Lin Xueqing looked back subconsciously.

Lin Shuzhi said, “We’ll go first; she’ll catch up.” It wasn’t because he wanted to avoid suspicion but to prevent scaring Lin Xueqing.

He had originally thought that Ning Jing was protecting Su Liang because Su Liang seemed to listen to Ning Jing, cooked for him, and stayed or left when Ning Jing asked her to.

But today’s incident completely changed Lin Shuzhi’s view.

He finally realized the meaning of the phrase “Ning Jing and Su Liang are good brothers.”

They were equal, with no one dependent on the other; perhaps there was some kind of transaction between them, but this didn’t prevent them from becoming real friends.

If it were just a transaction, given their personalities, they would be polite and distant, not so naturally in-sync.

This was the reason why Su Liang was willing to stay in the villa, talking and laughing with Lin Xueqing, and personally cooking for Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing.

Ning Jing must have asked her to do that.

It’s because Ning Jing wanted to avoid having to deal with Lin Xueqing, but was still worried about them.

And for the sake of Ning Jing, her friend, Su Liang’s treatment of Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing was sincere as well.

For a moment, Lin Shuzhi thought of many things.

Although he didn’t guess everything correctly, he got the essence of it.

The incident happened suddenly, and Su Liang acted in time, protecting Lin Shuzhi’s father and daughter well; at first, Lin Xueqing even had the heart to think about the matter “Why doesn’t Ning Jing like Su Liang, who is so good?” , and only now did she finally feel the fear afterwards, “If Sister Su hadn’t been here today, we…”

Lin Shuzhi sighed, “We would be dead.”

When he left the officialdom back then, it was because he really didn’t like those intrigues and didn’t want to be absorbed in the struggle for fame and fortune. He would rather teach and have a simple and peaceful life.

However, he always respected his two sons and never hindered them from doing what they wanted, even though he knew that the path might be fraught with thorns.

Today’s event was the first of its kind.

Lin Shuzhi didn’t know which son had caused the trouble, but he believed that his sons would not act recklessly and sending an assassin to kill the family of an enemy already proved that the person behind it was not a good one.

Compared to worrying about his own safety, Lin Shuzhi was more concerned about the situation of his two sons in the capital city at this moment.

Lin Xueqing looked back three times with each step, thinking about what Su Liang was doing, she didn’t find it scary but just sighed, “Su sister is even younger than me. She was originally the granddaughter of a famous doctor. I don’t know how much hardship she has suffered to be forced to become so powerful. When I met her yesterday, I thought she was the young lady from a family who sneaked out to play.”

Lin Shuzhi thought that Su Liang, like Ning Jing, didn’t choose to find a place to hide and live a peaceful life after experiencing a great change in their lives. She would probably return to the capital city sooner or later to seek justice for her dead relatives, which would be even more difficult and dangerous than what Ning Jing had to do.

He really underestimated the bravery and perseverance of this young lady.

Finally, after Lin Xueqing looked back countless times, Su Liang appeared in their sight.

She immediately let go of Lin Shuzhi and ran back, “Su sister!”

Only when they were close did she realize that Su Liang had changed her clothes.

“My dress? Su sister, did you go back and change your clothes?” Lin Xueqing exclaimed.

She thought that it would take a long time for Su Liang to kill the four men, dispose of the bodies, and catch up with them.

But it didn’t take too long, Su Liang even went back to change her clean clothes before coming down the mountain.

“I really like this dress, so I took it as a gift.” Su Liang said with a light laugh.

She was a short-distance running champion in her previous life, and since transmigrating she had been training her endurance, running every day. So when it came time to use it, her speed was naturally guaranteed.

Since her clothes were stained with blood, she had to change them or she would be noticed once she came down the mountain.

Hearing this, Lin Xueqing hurriedly said, “What’s mine is yours, just take it! Su sister, you saved my life and my father’s!”

“What savior? Am I an outsider?” Su Liang joked.

Lin Xueqing shook her head repeatedly, held Su Liang’s hand and smiled, “You and Ning senior brother are both part of our family!”

As they spoke, the two of them walked to Lin Shuzhi, who had heard Lin Xueqing’s words and held back his words of gratitude. He looked at Su Liang with warm eyes and said, “No matter what happens in the future, you can talk to us about it, don’t always carry everything on your own.”

Su Liang nodded, “I won’t be polite with master.”

But Lin Shuzhi felt that neither Ning Jing nor Su Liang had any intention of involving the Lin family in what they were going to do.

Lin Shuzhi knew that besides being a listener and giving advice, he couldn’t help Su Liang and Ning Jing with anything and didn’t ask further since they didn’t want to say anything.

After going down the mountain, Su Liang took Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing to the house where she and Ning Jing lived in Pingbei City.

It was locked during the daytime, but Su Liang had a key. Ning Jing usually used the back door when entering and leaving.

“The house here is very expensive. Ning senior brother should have taken Su sister to live in the academy.” Lin Xueqing said.

Su Liang smiled, “Ning’s house is a mess now, and he doesn’t want to involve master in it. We made some money in Bei’an County before, and it’s enough.”

“Making money? Is it Su sister’s medical practice? I don’t think Ning senior brother has any skills to make money.” In Lin Xueqing’s heart, Su Liang’s status instantly surpassed Ning Jing.

Su Liang nodded, “I’ve been practicing medicine, but I can’t make much money from it, sometimes losing money. It was the fourth prince who was investigating the case there, and I helped him, so he gave me a generous reward.”

Lin Xueqing looked shocked, “The fourth prince?”

Lin Shuzhi was also surprised. Lin Boyan mentioned in his last letter that the fourth prince went to investigate the smuggling of iron mines.

When Su Liang mentioned this matter, she wanted Lin Shuzhi to know that she and Ning Jing were capable of handling their own affairs and that he should not worry too much about them.

“The specific situation cannot be disclosed for the time being, as it must remain confidential,” Su Liang said.

At this point, Lin Xueqing’s eyes sparkled, “Su sister, are you human?”

Su Liang shook her head, “I’m not annoying.”

Lin Shuzhi couldn’t help but laugh.

Ning Jing heard Lin Xueqing’s voice from afar and came out of the room, only to see the three of them entering the gate.

At a glance, Lin Shuzhi saw the small swing in the courtyard, recalling the child who was carried by Ning Jing to the academy that day, he was still a little speechless, but he absolutely believed Ning Jing’s words.

“Ning senior brother, you’ve lost weight.” Lin Xueqing said as soon as she saw Ning Jing.

Ning Jing felt inexplicable. He had missed two meals, but he shouldn’t have lost weight so quickly.

“How will you manage without Su Liang?” Lin Xueqing sighed.

Hearing this, Su Liang knew that the girl wanted to bring her together with Ning Jing again and hurriedly interrupted, “My master wants to pay a visit. We encountered an assassin on the way, but it was resolved.”

Ning Jing furrowed his brow, “Who sent them?”

Su Liang shook her head, “They said that the two elder brothers of the Lin

Family offended someone in the capital city. We don’t know who yet.”

“Jingjing, I need to write a letter and send it to the capital city.” Lin Shuzhi said.

Ning Jing nodded, “Alright.” With that, he invited Lin Shuzhi to his room.

Lin Xueqing went to see Su Liang’s room and saw a box full of medical books and ancient texts. She was once again amazed, “Where did you get these books, Su Liang?

“Crown Prince Bei Jingwang sent them,” Su Liang said.

Lin Xueqing felt a bit dizzy, “Everyone says that Ning Jing used the Crown Prince Bei Jingwang’s name to take the imperial examination in a remote place, which caused a lot of rumors. I wanted to ask Ning Jing how he knows Crown Prince Bei Jingwang. It turns out that it’s because of you, Su Liang?”

“You could say that,” Su Liang nodded.

Lin Xueqing sighed, “It seems that Ning Jing clearly relies on Su Liang for care and protection since he doesn’t know Martial Arts.”

In fact, saving Xing Yusheng and helping Duanmu Chen was done by both Ning Jing and Su Liang.

However, Ning Jing’s deeds couldn’t be mentioned.

Su Liang brought up Xing Yusheng in order to tell Lin Shuzhi that his disciple had not clung to power and wealth for official career goals.

In the next room, Lin Shuzhi finished writing a letter and wanted it to be sent out immediately. Ning Jing offered to accompany him.

In the end, Ning Jing drove the carriage, put on a straw hat, and let Lin Shuzhi sit in it, taking him to the Lin Family’s mansion in the city.

As he usually lived in the academy with his daughter, only servants were looking after their home in the city.

After delivering the letter, Ning Jing took Lin Shuzhi back.

Lin Shuzhi asked him, “Is Su Liang protecting you?

Ning Jing replied, “Yes.”

“Having a capable friend like this by your side is a blessing. You must cherish it,” Lin Shuzhi spoke earnestly, “If possible, it would be even better to marry her; otherwise, she will leave eventually.”

Originally, Lin Shuzhi had a respectful attitude towards the younger generation’s affairs and did not want to interfere with the relationship between Su Liang and Ning Jing.

Now, saying these words, he truly felt that it was an excellent fortune for Ning Jing to have a friend like Su Liang. If the two could develop their relationship further, it would be even better.

In a way, it was a parent’s mindset.

Seeing an impeccable and exceptional person of the opposite sex beside their child, they naturally thought of making them part of the family.

Lin Shuzhi: …He didn’t even bother to humor him? Just like his sons, whenever the subject of marriage comes up, they immediately adopt an uncooperative attitude. A simple question makes them think he wants to hold a grandson. As a father who cares about his son, it’s difficult for him too!

Originally, Lin Shuzhi had suggested eating at a restaurant for lunch, offering to treat everyone, so as not to burden Su Liang.

However, Su Liang insisted on cooking at home. After Lin Shuzhi’s troubles were resolved, she didn’t plan to return to Qianshan Academy, so there wouldn’t be many chances to invite them to eat again.

Seeing Su Liang and Lin Xueqing going into the kitchen, Lin Shuzhi suggested playing a game with Ning Jing. However, Ning Jing said he was going to build a fire.

Lin Shuzhi was very supportive of this and urged him to hurry up.

At the dinner table, Lin Xueqing began praising Su Liang, thinking that everything she cooked tasted delicious.

It was only after the meal that Su Liang said she wouldn’t return to the mountain.

Instead of showing disappointment, Lin Xueqing looked forward in anticipation, “Great! Can I stay here with Su Liang then?”

Su Liang: …She hadn’t expected this.

Nevertheless, she didn’t decline. She didn’t want to go back to the mountain as living here was more convenient for practicing martial arts and reading. At the academy, she was always a guest and not quite as free.

Lin Xueqing staying wouldn’t inconvenience Su Liang, and she could even find time to teach her some self-defense techniques.

Seeing Su Liang agreeing, Lin Shuzhi chuckled, “Well, then I’ll go back to the mountain by myself.”

This sentence had an obvious implication.

“Su sister, can my dad stay too? It’s so lonely for him to go back alone! But I’m definitely not going back with him!” Lin Xueqing shook Su Liang’s arm.

Not even bothering to ask for Ning Jing’s opinion.

Su Liang looked at Ning Jing.

Ning Jing nodded, “Alright.” He could change his taste in things, but he’d find a way to avoid playing chess with Lin Shuzhi.

“That’s great!” Lin Xueqing was very happy.

Su Liang arranged for them to stay in another courtyard. Lin Xueqing still had the idea of bringing Su Liang and Ning Jing together, so she didn’t want to live with Su Liang.

Everything they needed was taken from the Lin family, so there was no need to buy anything else.

Lin Shuzhi also asked Ning Jing to go to the academy and fetch the medical books he wanted to give to Su Liang.

And so, their two became a “family” of four.

When Lin Shuzhi asked to play chess with Ning Jing again, Ning Jing glanced at Su Liang.

Su Liang understood, stood up, and said, “What’s the point of playing chess, Master? I’ve decided to teach you and Xueqing some basic self-defense techniques for the next few days. It might be useful if we encounter trouble in the future. ”

Lin Xueqing looked forward to it.

Lin Shuzhi was confused. Learn martial arts at his age?

“As long as you’re willing to learn and practice, you’ll succeed.” Su Liang thought that since she was going to teach him, she might as well teach Lin Shuzhi Tai Chi, which would be suitable for him and could help build up his body.

Decidedly, Su Liang led Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing to the backyard. Ning Jing also went to watch.

“I’ll do a demonstration first.” Su Liang said and gestured for Ning Jing to come over.

Ning Jing didn’t know what she was going to do, but he went anyway.

The next moment, neither Lin Shuzi nor Lin Xueqing could clearly see what happened, and Ning Jing was thrown to the ground with an over-the-shoulder flip by Su Liang…

Nobody cared if Ning Jing was in pain. Lin Xueqing clapped excitedly with shining eyes, “Su sister, you’re so amazing!” Lin Shuzhi said, “It was too fast, I didn’t see it clearly.”

So, Su Liang demonstrated another three times.

As Ning Jing tried to suggest that he and Su Liang swap for the demo, Lin family’s father-daughter duo immediately objected.

“Ning senior brother, how could you not know how to cherish and love your girl?” Lin Xueqing indicated that someone like him would never get a wife!

Ning Jing glanced at Su Liang indifferently, “Her? Suitable for the words

‘cherish and love’?”

Su Liang snorted and twisted her wrist, “Did you guys see the last one clearly,

Master and Xueqing?”

Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing shook their heads in unison, saying they didn’t see it at all and needed her to do it a few more times.

Su Liang held out her hand towards Ning Jing and smiled, “Come on.”

Since Ning Jing didn’t dare to play chess with Lin Shuzhi, he had no choice but to play along and be a prop.

In the end, after being thrown multiple times by Su Liang, Ning Jing was also used as a training prop for Lin Shuzhi and Lin Xueqing.

It wasn’t too painful.

No longer did he resemble a divine creature who cared for everything, but Ning Jing didn’t get angry or leave. Afterwards, he continued to silently act as a prop, with a practiced demeanor that made people sympathize.

Even Lin Xueqing couldn’t stand it, “Su sister, are you always treating my senior brother like this?” It was brutal…

“He enjoys it.” Su Liang said and looked at Ning Jing, “Right?”

Ning Jing silently nodded.contemporary romance

Lin Xueqing gave Su Liang a thumbs up, “I never thought you’d be like this, Su sister.. I’ll leave my senior brother to you! You can hit him, but you have to take responsibility afterwards!”
