Chapter 74: Friends

When Liu Jiayin fell from the carriage, she thought that she would break her bones too. But she landed on a patch of soft soil. Other than her clothes getting dirty, she was fine!

When Liu Qi saw his sister stand up completely unscathed, his tensed heart finally relaxed. ‘That was lucky or else…’

Little did Liu Qi know that that had nothing to do with luck at all.

When Liu Jiayin fell from the carriage, the pebbles on the ground automatically rolled to the side. Then, tender grass and weeds sprouted on the ground to cushion Liu Jiayin’s fall. Otherwise, the consequences would have been serious.

Liu Qi stopped the carriage, put down the reins, immediately jumped out of the carriage, ran to his sister, and examined her whole body. Other than some small dirt on her knees, he could not find any injuries, so Liu Qi was completely relieved.

Then, he sternly and seriously reprimanded his sister, “Liu Jiayin, you are too impulsive and too reckless! Do you know how dangerous it is for you to jump out of the carriage? Can you spare your brother some worry?”

Liu Jiayin also knew how dangerous it was. When she was scolded, she bit her lips stubbornly with tears rolling down her face. Her brother had never been so harsh with her before.

When Liu Qi saw his sister’s wronged expression, his heart ached terribly. However, he knew that if he did not teach his sister a good lesson, she would change her ways.

After lecturing her for a while, Liu Qi continued, “It seems that you really need to stay away from Lin Yuelan. We have just departed from her, and you almost got into an accident. Thankfully, you landed on a soft opening in the land. Otherwise, you’d be disfigured or crippled!” In other words, Liu Qi was blaming Lin Yuelan for this incident.

Liu Jiayi initially regretted suddenly standing up in the carriage. However, when she heard her brother push the blame onto Lin Yuelan, she immediately became angry again.

She shouted angrily at her brother, “Brother, you are too unreasonable! I was the one who stood up in the carriage, so how can you blame sister Yue?”

Then, she ran away crying.

She ran in the direction of the Lin family village.

It seemed that she had gone back to find Lin Yue Lan.

Liu Qi was dumbfounded.

He was doing everything for his sister’s sake, but his sister couldn’t understand his good intention at all. Instead, she had turned her back on him for a person she had known for less than a day.

Seeing her sister run away, Liu Qi was also wondering if he had done anything wrong.

Lin Yuelan was really a good girl. If she did not have the reputation of being a jinx, he would also be very happy for his sister to make such a friend.

But their backgrounds were too different.

One was the daughter of a rich family, and the other was a jinx from the countryside.

One was rich, and the other was poor.

Afraid that something would happen to his sister, Liu Qi looked in the direction of the Lin family village and sighed. Then, he jumped on the horse carriage, turned around, and rode towards the Lin family village.

Fortunately, the Lin Family Village was not that far away.

Liu Jiayin was surprised by the attitude of her big brother. He actually placed so much emphasis on the slander against Sister Yue.

Liu Jiayin cried and ran in the direction of Lin Family Village, or more precisely, Lin Yuelan’s home.



As for Lin Yuelan, when Liu Qi and Liu Jiayi were leaving, she had asked Little Green to pay attention to their movements.

Firstly, she wanted to check Liu Qi’s true attitude. Secondly, she really wanted to protect the siblings in the dark. She could not let the incident of Lin Mingqing happen again.

Therefore, Lin Yuelan knew about the conflict between the siblings, Liu Jiayi’s close accident, and the girl running to her house.

When Lin Yuelan saw Liu Jiayi fall out of the horse carriage, Little Green immediately asked his friends to move the sharp stones that would harm Liu Jiayi. Then, Little Green softened the ground and coaxed the grass to grow.

Lin Yuelan was wearing the same set of clothes as before. With her hands behind her back, her eyes were sharp as she stood on the road, waiting for Liu Jiayi’s arrival.

When she saw Lin Yuelan, Liu Jiayin’s tears fell like rain, and she looked very wronged.

Liu Jiayin hugged Lin Yuelan, who was dressed in tattered clothes, and cried out loud, “Sob, sob… Sister Yue, my brother just scolded me. My brother has never scolded me so harshly before.”

Liu Jiayin really did care about Lin Yuelan, so Lin Yuelan was moved.

Liu Jiayin might change in the future, but currently, she really treated Lin Yuelan as a friend. Of course, Lin Yuelan would treat her as a friend too.

Lin Yuelan’s heart was not made of stone.

She gently patted Liu Jiayin’s back and comforted her, “Jiayin, your brother is also doing this for your own good!”

Then, Lin Yuelan’s sharp eyes stared at the carriage that was rapidly approaching.
