Chapter 159: Powerful Protection, Ling Qingzhu's Warning
The crowd fell silent once again. Especially when they heard Ling Qingzhu's resolute and determined words, every heart was filled with astonishment.
No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't understand it. Why would Ling Qingzhu, who clearly had no previous connection to Lin Yan, suddenly stand by his side? And what was even more puzzling: why would a woman like Ling Qingzhu be willing to confront all of them for the sake of a simple Lin Yan? Therefore, the place fell into complete silence.
Anger, confusion, envy, admiration, and other feelings constantly reflected on the faces of the crowd. Especially among the male warriors.
From the moment they saw Ling Qingzhu, as beautiful as a fairy, many of them had already fallen under her charm. But now, seeing their muse protect Lin Yan so decisively, filled them with envy to the bone.
"Damn it!" "Why him?" "What has he done to earn Miss Qingzhu's favor?" The male warriors roared with envy. They couldn't believe what they were seeing before their eyes.
As for Lin Langtian, upon hearing Ling Qingzhu's words, his expression turned extremely somber. He also had feelings for Ling Qingzhu.
Or rather, in front of such an exceptional woman, it was impossible for a man not to feel anything.
But Lin Langtian might be one of the few who knew something about Ling Qingzhu's background and influence among all the people present.
Under these circumstances, although Lin Langtian felt desires towards Ling Qingzhu, he couldn't afford to have improper thoughts. But now Ling Qingzhu had made it clear that she intended to protect Lin Yan. This made Lin Langtian also feel a touch of jealousy.
He gritted his teeth and asked: "Miss Qingzhu, why?"
"If I'm not mistaken, you just met this person."
"I don't understand." But Ling Qingzhu directly interrupted Lin Langtian's question. She had no obligation to answer Lin Langtian's questions, let alone wanted to waste any more time with him. After all, she already had some affection for Lin Yan.
As for Lin Langtian, he was just a stranger to her. Therefore, facing Lin Langtian, who had started a fight with Lin Yan before, Ling Qingzhu was also a little annoyed. Upon hearing Lin Langtian's words, she responded coldly:
"You don't need to worry about that."
"I just want to know one thing, do you still intend to act against Mr. Yan?" "If so, I'll be glad to accompany you." Ling Qingzhu's words were firm and decisive. And after hearing these words from Ling Qingzhu, even if Lin Langtian was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to nod.
"If Miss Qingzhu says so"
"Then, of course, I must give Miss Qingzhu some respect."
"Today's matter ends here. I won't pursue it further."
He wouldn't dare to act against Ling Qingzhu. Not only because his strength originally wasn't a match for Ling Qingzhu's. Even if he could beat her, he wouldn't dare to. Because the Lin clan, upon which he relied, couldn't bear the wrath of the force behind Ling Qingzhu. Therefore, Lin Langtian didn't dare to be reckless at all.
"So it is."
"But I want to remind Mr. Langtian of one thing."
"Don't play clever." Ling Qingzhu spoke with a cold voice.
"Mr. Yan is my friend, so I don't want to see him in trouble because of what happened today."
"If Mr. Langtian keeps his promises, I'll be very grateful."
"But if you break your words and secretly attack Mr. Yan and his family, don't be surprised if I become your enemy." "Although my strength is limited, if I'm only seeking justice for Mr. Yan, I'm quite confident.
" Each word of Ling Qingzhu was a clear threat. After hearing her words, those present felt a great shock. After all, Ling Qingzhu's words left no room for doubt.
In a normal situation, Lin Langtian would already be furious. But he wasn't. Instead, he forced a smile and replied: "Miss Qingzhu, you can rest assured that Lin Langtian keeps his promises." "What I promise, I fulfill." Ling Qingzhu heard this response and said indifferently:
"Then, I thank Mr. Langtian." Lin Langtian showed a somewhat forced smile. But now he had no other choice but to leave. So he also looked at the young members of the Lin clan behind him. "Let's go back to the Lin clan!" People naturally responded to this. Then, they followed Lin Langtian and left together. Before going, Lin Ke'er glanced deeply at Lin Yan, apparently intrigued by the relationship between him and Ling Qingzhu. But fortunately, Lin Yan had passed today's test. "Keep going, Mr. Yan!" "I hope that the next time we meet, you've become so strong that I have to look up to you with admiration." She muttered to herself and quickly left. As for Ling Qingzhu, she turned her gaze to Wang Yan.
"What about you, Mr. Wang Yan?" Wang Yan frowned slightly upon hearing this.
Even Lin Langtian didn't dare to oppose Ling Qingzhu, he wasn't stupid. So, naturally, neither would he. "Wang Mou naturally will also give Miss Qingzhu some face." "This matter ends here." He said as he bowed to Ling Qingzhu.
Then, unwilling to waste any more time, he said: "We're leaving too!" He said to the members of the Wang family behind him and left with them. The departure of the two great families significantly reduced the number of people in the place. The few remaining warriors also left one after another.
But as they left, they remembered what had happened before and couldn't help but feel moved.
They never thought that today's event would end like this. Once again, they looked at Lin Yan with admiration in their eyes. The fact that Ling Qingzhu valued someone like him was truly a matter of fortune. Unfortunately, such blessings were not meant for them.
Finally, only Lin Yan, Lin Dong, and Ling Qingzhu were left. At this moment, Ling Qingzhu had softened the coldness on her face and spoke to Lin Yan, showing a completely different image than before.
"Mr. Yan, you won't blame me for being meddlesome, will you?" Lin Yan smiled and shook his head. "How could I?"
"I barely have time to thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been finished a while ago."
Ling Qingzhu smiled slightly upon hearing this. And that smile nearly left the world colorless. Meanwhile, Lin Dong, seeing the appearance of the two, was a little stunned. He couldn't help but mutter to himself:
"He really is Brother Lin Yan."
