Chapter 938: As the daughter of the Ximen family, I must marry in a glorious and respectable way.
Su Yi smiled coldly, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Chief Ximen, why do you have to ask when you already know the answer?"
"Ji Li'er is a disciple of our Tianyan Sect and my junior sister. She is now in your Ximen family. Don't you know her?"
His eyes were as sharp as torches, staring straight into Ximen Lie's eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.
Ximen Lie was frightened by Su Yi's eyes.
He felt like a transparent person in front of Su Yi, and all his thoughts were exposed.
"Young Master Su, what do you mean by this?" Ximen Lie's face changed and his voice rose slightly.
"There has never been a person named Ji Lier in our Ximen family! Don't make up stories and slander us!"
Ximen Lie denied it flatly, made excuses hurriedly, and turned to look at Sima Lan who was sitting next to him.
Seeing this, Sima Lan understood what he meant and immediately agreed, "Yes, Young Master Su, are you mistaken? There is indeed no such person in our Ximen family."
Her tone was very sincere, as if she really knew nothing about it.
Su Yi snorted coldly, with a scornful smile on his face: "Haha... is that so?"
His voice was full of sarcasm and disdain, "I heard that a few days ago your Ximen family..."
When Ximen Lie heard this, he secretly thought that something was wrong.
"Young Master Su!" Fearing that Su Yi would say something unfavorable to him, he quickly interrupted Su Yi.
"Since you like Miss Ji Li'er, and this clan leader doesn't know her, and you have no interest in my daughter Shuang'er, then we can talk about this matter slowly later."
After saying this, Ximen Lie breathed a sigh of relief.
He hoped that this would temporarily calm Su Yi and prevent him from continuing to pester him.
Su Yi naturally understood Ximen Lie's thoughts. He looked at Ximen Lie sarcastically, and then ignored him.
He sat down and continued eating, as if what had just happened had never happened.
Humph, if Junior Sister Ji had not been rescued by my sister, he would have definitely exposed all of Ximen Lie’s evil deeds today.
He is in a good mood today, so he won't bother with this old man!
Anyway, his sister just told him that she had poisoned Ximen Lie and the others, and they would not live for more than half a month.
Ximen Yinshuang's face instantly became extremely ugly, and her lips were tightly pursed, almost biting to bleed.
Her eyes were fixed on Su Yi, and deep in her eyes was a tremendous hatred for Su Yi.
She could never have imagined that the Su Yi she had always been thinking about would actually like the person whom she regarded as an ant, trash, and inferior to Ximen Li!
She felt that her self-esteem had suffered a great blow, and the anger and resentment in her heart surged up like a tide.
Her hands were tightly clenched on the corner of her clothes, her nails dug deeply into her palms, but she was completely unaware.
She kept thinking in her heart: "Ximen Li, you bitch, how dare you snatch Su Yi away! I will never let you go!"
At this moment, Liao Yuanbo, who had been watching the show on the side, suddenly stood up.
There was a barely perceptible smile of gloating on his face, and he was secretly delighted in his heart, feeling that his chance had finally come.
He bowed to Ximen Lie and said, "Chief Ximen, since Young Master Su is so ungrateful and refuses to marry Miss Yinshuang, why do you have to force it?"
"With Miss Yinshuang's talent, beauty, and noble status, are you afraid that you won't find a better husband? In the entire Yueya Continent, there are countless young talents who are attracted to her."
Ximen Lie narrowed his eyes, looked at Liao Yuanbo with a sharp gaze, and began to ponder in his heart.
This Liao Yuanbo has a good-looking appearance. He is twenty-one years old, and his cultivation has reached the third level of Spirit King. He is also the young master of the Liao family, a secluded family.
Although the Liao family is not as famous as the Tianyan Sect, its strength should not be underestimated.
If the Ximen family could form an alliance with the Liao family, it might be a good choice for them.
Ximen Lie was secretly calculating in his mind, his eyes flickering.
"Young Master Liao, what you said does make sense. However, as the daughter of my Ximen family, I must marry honorably and cannot suffer any grievances." Ximen Lie said, with a calculating look in his eyes.
Liao Yuanbo seemed to see through Ximen Lie's thoughts. He quickly said, "Master Ximen, you are absolutely right."
"Given Miss Yinshuang's talent and beauty, she must marry in a dignified and respectable way, and must not suffer any grievances."
His words revealed his admiration for the Second Miss Ximen, and also hinted at his interest in this marriage.
After hearing what Liao Yuanbo said, Ximen Lie's eyes flashed with calculation.
He thought that although the Liao family was not as good as the Tianyan Sect, it could still bring a lot of help to the Ximen family.
If this marriage can be accomplished, it will not only make the Ximen family stronger, but it may also be possible to use this opportunity to suppress the Tianyan Sect.
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Ximen Lie's face.
"Well..." Ximen Lie deliberately slowed down his tone, "Could it be that Young Master Liao is interested in Shuang'er? Young Master Liao is indeed a good candidate."
Liao Yuanbo was secretly delighted, as he had long been unable to suppress his desire for Ximen Yinshuang.
After all, Ximen Yinshuang not only possesses a rare pure yang body, but is also the apple of the Ximen family's eye.
It would undoubtedly be a blessing for the Liao family if they could marry into the Ximen family.
Moreover, practicing dual cultivation with Ximen Yinshuang, who possesses a pure Yin body, can not only greatly increase his cultivation speed, but is also likely to allow his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.
Liao Yuanbo would naturally not let go of such an opportunity easily.
Therefore, he quickly assured the Ximen Patriarch: "Patriarch Ximen, rest assured, this young master is sincere to Miss Yinshuang."
"If I can marry Miss Yinshuang, I will definitely treat her like a treasure and will never treat her unfairly. I will definitely make her the happiest woman on this Yueya Continent."
Ximen Yinshuang heard the conversation between her father and Liao Yuanbo. Although she felt a little unwilling, she also understood that the hope for Su Yi was becoming increasingly slim.
In desperation, she had to turn her eyes to Liao Yuanbo.
She looked at Liao Yuanbo carefully and saw that he was handsome, well-mannered, elegant and graceful.
In addition, the Liao family is a hidden family with certain strength in Yueya Continent. If she can really marry him, it may not be a bad thing.
"Young Master Liao, I am really grateful for your kindness to me." Ximen Yinshuang said shyly, with a slight blush on her face.
However, deep down in her heart, she had completely different ideas.
She thought to herself that although Liao Yuanbo could not be compared with Su Yi, he was still a good choice.
At least, he could give me the status and resources I desired.
However, Ximen Yinshuang always believed that Su Yi was the only man who was truly worthy of her.
Ximen Yinshuang would never let go of this man Su Yi.
He can only belong to me and will definitely become mine, Ximen Yinshuang swore secretly in his heart.
She was still fantasizing about getting Su Yi, but she didn't know that her life was almost gone, and she was still swearing.
