Chapter 21 Be a Confidant
During this period, her mother came to see her. Lin Yuehua agreed with this marriage and thought that Ling Ruoli would be happy about the Murong family's proposal, so she did not show up again. She never expected such a change to happen.
Because of her disturbance, she was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for a night, which was unacceptable to her.
“This is just bringing hatred to yourself.”

"It's only five o'clock. When can I get 30,000?" Now my arms, waist and legs are sore.
A voice came from my ear, "Who are you talking to?"
Ling Ruoli quickly stood up and knelt, looking around. A voice came from above her head, "Here" and the man jumped down.
Ling Ruoli breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the person coming was Murong Lian.
"What are you here for?"
Murong Lian sighed and said, "My ancestors scolded me and made me kneel in front of them and reflect on my mistakes."
"Why are you punished?" Ling Ruoli said apologetically, "No, your ancestors punished you to kneel, why are you running here?"
"I'm here to find the culprit." He stayed on the beam for a long time, and heard the person kneeling below talking non-stop. He was curious about who she was talking to, so he spoke.
"You are laughing at me"
Murong Lian didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
"I don't believe it." Ling Ruoli sat cross-legged on the mat.
"I didn't believe it at first," he said, "until we met on the street that day and I glanced at you.
"Did you lose your memory, or did I?" Ling Ruoli said, "Although I don't remember what happened before, you and I have met many times, so how can it be love at first sight?"
He rolled down from the beam and leaned against the pillar. "But there is one thing that puzzles me. Every girl falls in love with me at first sight. If she doesn't see me for a day, she will think about me day and night."
Ling Ruoli was stunned at first, then looked at him in disbelief.
"But the look in your eyes when you first saw me was different," Murong Lian said, "At first I thought you were playing hard to get, but now that I've offered you a marriage proposal you've rejected it."
"Stop!" Ling Ruoli couldn't listen any longer. "You asked for a kiss just because I didn't look at you more."
"Yes, the old ancestor said that you have a lover, I don't know who it is, I want to compare with him to see who is more beautiful."
Ling Ruoli couldn't listen any more, "You are beautiful, Young Master Murong is naturally beautiful, even Mr. Xu from the north of the city is not as beautiful as you."
"Your remarks now are full of sarcasm."
Instead, she couldn't stop laughing. Now that she looked closely, she thought that this man was quite cute. He went through so much trouble just because she didn't even look at him more.
"You are good at Qinggong, teach me."
"Did you tell me who your crush is and what he or she looks like?"
Ling Ruoli used this as a condition to let Murong Lian teach her Qinggong.
The market is very prosperous in the evening. There is a big pine tree growing on a high slope. From this angle, the prosperity of the entire capital city comes into view, like stars in the dark night.
"From here, the entire capital city is clearly visible, and I feel like I'm outside the game."
"That's right." Ling Ruoli looked at the night sky. There was only a bright moon hanging high in the sky with sparse stars.
She suddenly became interested and asked, "Excuse me, you know Qinggong?"
“I was too weak to practice martial arts since childhood”
Ling Ruoli felt it was a pity and said, "Then you should learn martial arts. Boys should protect themselves when they are outside."
"If that person never comes back, then you have to wait."
Ling Ruoli told him that she had fallen in love with someone when she was eight years old, Shen Lanxi, who was studying with Mr. Jing Mo. She believed that she would wait for him, so she could give an explanation to the real person.
It seems that Ling Ruoli is very confident and expectant.
Murong Lian said, "If he doesn't look as good as me, you can find me if you regret it later."
"Probably not," Ling Ruoli said, "You're not my cup of tea."
"With my conditions, many people are willing to do it. Why would you refuse?"
"Why? I'll tell you when I think of it!"
"Where is your teahouse? I'll go visit it when I have time."
“It’s my pleasure”
