1090 Su Tingxue: Barbarian, Become a Live-in Son-in-law
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao frowned. They couldn’t imagine how despairing that sort of life must have been for a child.
Naris quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Madam Brulee.
“I’m sorry.” Madam Brulee took the handkerchief and wiped the tears off her face as she said in shame, “I’m sorry for letting you guys hear these things, but I really…”
Lin Jiansheng’s eyes turned red.
When he heard about the mayor’s tragic childhood, he couldn’t help but think of the tragic past when he carried his seriously ill mother everywhere to seek treatment when he was young, but was rejected by the Healer.
Lin Jiansheng was a sympathetic and gentle person, so he also shed tears.
After wiping her tears, Madam Brulee raised her head and saw Lin Jiansheng wiping his tears as well.
She was stunned on the spot and forgot her own sorrow.
Lin Jiansheng looked fierce, like a cold and heartless villain.
However, Madam Brulee didn’t sense any acting from Lin Jiansheng’s expression.
He was genuinely saddened by Madam Brulee’s husband’s tragic childhood.
Recalling that Naris had said that only pure and kind people could awaken psychic power and become a Purifying Spirit Master, Madam Brulee immediately changed her opinion of Lin Jiansheng.
It seemed that Mr. Lin was really a kind person.
Madam Brulee smiled again. “Mr. Lin, it’s all my fault for making you feel sad.”
Lin Jiansheng wiped his tears and said in a choked voice, “The mayor’s childhood was tragic. He finished all the hardships in his life in advance. From the moment he met Madam, the mayor’s hardships were over, so he enjoyed wealth and glory after that.”
Hearing this, Madam Brulee was even happier. “Thank you, Mr. Lin.”
Yu Huang suddenly asked, “When did the mayor awaken his beast form?”
Madam Brulee immediately replied, “It was when he was seriously ill with a high fever and almost died. At that time, he was delirious from the fever and he was spouting nonsense. But my husband was never a coward. Even though he was abandoned by everyone, he never gave up his life.”
“Perhaps it was because his strong will to live touched the heavens, but when he was on the verge of death, he accidentally awakened his beast form. However, because he was mentally weak and his body was seriously ill, his beast form didn’t awaken successfully. The Deep Sea Octopus he awakened, which should have eight legs, only had six.”
“But he also benefited from a disaster and healed his hemiplegic body.”
If a person successfully awakened their beast form, the genes in their body would mutate and fuse with their beast form. Naturally, the mayor’s hemiplegia would be cured.
“My husband is still at the Master Realm. A hundred years ago, his body began to show signs of decline. He originally planned to accept his fate and accept death, but under my threats, he spent a lot of money to buy a longevity pill.”
At this point, Madam Brulee frowned sadly. “Calculating at the time, the effect of the longevity pill should have ended. Recently, my husband has started to suffer from insomnia again. His hair is turning white. If his cultivation level doesn’t increase, I’m afraid…”
Tears welled up in Madam Brulee’s eyes again.
She raised her head and looked at Lin Jiansheng. She choked on her tears as she said, “Mr. Lin, you guys came at the right time. I hope you can help my husband.”
It could be seen that Madam Brulee had deep feelings for Jun Qing.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have cried as she spoke.
Lin Jiansheng hurriedly nodded and agreed. “I will definitely do my best to help the mayor evolve into a complete beast form!”
Madam Brulee nodded. Then, she thought of something else and revealed a hesitant and uneasy expression.
Noticing the change in Madam Brulee’s expression, Lin Jiansheng asked, “Madam, do you have any other concerns?”
“It’s like this, Mr. Lin…” Madam Brulee’s face was filled with shame. She lowered her head and said in a low voice,” My husband is too obsessed with his incomplete beast form, so I didn’t dare to rashly order someone to invite him over…. I really couldn’t bear to see my husband disappointed again. Therefore, without asking Mr. Lin’s permission, I took the initiative to send out a citywide notice and asked someone to find a person with the same incomplete beast form to accept Mr. Lin’s evolution divine technique as soon as possible. ”
Madam Brulee was too embarrassed to look Lin Jiansheng in the eye and say this.
Just as Yu Huang had said, they were not here to ask the mayor for help. They were here to discuss cooperation with the mayor.
They were kind enough to help the mayor evolve his beast form, but Madam Brulee was questioning Lin Jiansheng’s strength.
This was essentially a show of distrust.
“Heh, that’s all?” However, Lin Jiansheng didn’t care about this at all. He comforted Madam Brulee instead. “Madam, the mayor’s situation is special. You have a deep relationship with the mayor, so no matter what, your actions are the most thorough. I won’t be angry.”
Lin Jiansheng picked up the wine glass on the table and sighed sadly. “I’m really envious of your sincerity to the mayor.” Lin Jiansheng had been a bachelor for nearly two hundred years and had to put up with Sheng Lingfeng and Lan Yao’s PDA every day on the Holy Spirit Continent. No matter where he went, he had to put up with Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao’s PDA.
Now that he came to the Mayor’s Mansion, Madam Brulee was showing off affection for the mayor.
Lin Jiansheng really didn’t want to be a dog anymore.
When Madam Brulee heard this, she also laughed and said, “Mr. Lin is so righteous and powerful, so you will definitely meet a woman who is your match. If you’re willing, I can summon all the unmarried women in the city for a gathering. Mr. Lin can also attend.”
She was arranging a blind date for Lin Jiansheng.
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao looked at Lin Jiansheng with a smile. They were curious about his reply.
When Lin Jiansheng heard Madam Brulee’s words, he immediately felt his scalp go numb.
In his Spiritual Abode world, Su Tingxue even urged Lin Jiansheng to attend the banquet.
Su Tingxue said, “Go. A beauty that this woman approves of can’t be bad. If you marry a beauty, you will become a live-in son-in-law of the Cang Lang Continent. In the future, Yu Huang and the others will be able to bask in your glory.”
Lin Jiansheng was speechless.
Upon hearing the woman he loved say such words, Lin Jiansheng’s heart ached.
He shook his head at Madam Brulee with a serious expression and said, “I already have someone in my heart, but I still have to thank you for your kindness.”
Hearing this, Madam Brulee was a little disappointed.
She had originally wanted to arrange a marriage for Lin Jiansheng to deepen their relationship.
After knowing that Lin Jiansheng had someone he liked, Madam Brulee didn’t ask further.
Fortunately, at this moment, a male servant walked in from outside the courtyard and whispered into Butler Mo’s ear. After the male servant left, Butler Mo glanced at the dining room.
Seeing that Madam Brulee and Mr. Lin were chatting happily, she didn’t go in to disturb their conversation.
Noticing the situation outside, Madam Brulee looked up and asked Butler Mo, “What is it?”
Yu Huang and the others turned to look at Butler Mo.
Butler Mo walked into the dining room and stood behind everyone. Then, he bent down and told Madam Brulee, “Madam, the person with the incomplete beast form has been found and has been brought to the side hall.”
Hearing this, Madam Brulee subconsciously wanted to get up and go to the side hall to take a look.
When she saw that the table was filled with food that had barely been eaten much, only then did she remember that Lin Jiansheng and the others hadn’t finished eating yet.
Madam Brulee sat down again.
However, at this moment, Lin Jiansheng put down his wine glass and stood up. “No, Madam. Time is precious. Since they’ve already brought the person here, let’s not waste any more time. Let’s go over and take a look first.”
These words were exactly what Madam Brulee wanted to hear.
“Then we’ll listen to Mr. Lin.”
As if afraid that Lin Jiansheng would regret it, Madam Brulee picked up her dress and walked out of the dining room. Lin Jiansheng followed half a step behind.
Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao, and Naris looked at each other in dismay.
Yu Huang said, “Are we still eating?”
Seeing that Ah Kong was already full, Naris said, “Let’s go over and take a look.”
“Okay.”
Sheng Xiao carried Ah Kong and the three of them walked to the side hall.
As soon as they approached the peony garden, they saw a burly middle-aged man walking towards the peony garden with a few cold-looking guards behind him.
The man looked to be in his fifties. He was wearing a loose gray shirt, and his abs were faintly discernible. His hair was neatly combed back, and some of it had already turned white.
This person’s eyes were almond-shaped and there were a few obvious wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. However, his strong physique and aura completely covered up the traces of aging.
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao didn’t need anyone to introduce them to him. They could accurately identify him.
Mayor Jun Qing!
When Naris saw the mayor, Madam Brulee’s words suddenly appeared in her mind—
[I like big peony flowers, just like how I like strong men.]
The mayor was indeed burly. One couldn’t tell that he was a sickly cripple when he was young.
