Chapter 1046: Chapter 1046
"If Li Changlin were to really go to the Lin Family, he would definitely be beaten to death!"
"Rest assured, Ruonan, I know what I’m doing. You don’t need to worry—just stay home and wait for me to come pick you up." Li Changlin grinned nonchalantly. He could clearly hear Lin Ruonan’s concern for him, but now he had to finish recording ’The Voice of Xuanyuan’ first, and he also had to see how the Li Family planned things. These things couldn’t be rushed—no rush, no rush.
He exchanged sweet nothings with Lin Ruonan for a while before the two reluctantly hung up the phone.
"Brother, was that your girlfriend?" Behind him, Li Xiaoya peeked out her head mischievously and asked slyly.
Li Changlin reached out and gently teased her nose, but he didn’t hide the truth and nodded openly, "Yes, she’s from the Jingcheng Lin Family, though their family seems a bit opposed."
"Hmph, the Lin Family is just a second-rate family. Brother, by taking an interest in their daughter, you’re already giving them face. These people really don’t appreciate kindness!" Li Xiaoya pouted, voicing her indignation on Li Changlin’s behalf.
Hearing this, Li Changlin couldn’t help but laugh, "Back then, I was just a very ordinary little livestreamer. Who would take a fancy to your brother then? Anyway, the Lin Family is still an Ancient Martial Family—if their daughter were to marry, it would have to be an equal match, right?"
"That’s true." Li Xiaoya nodded seriously and said, "But now it’s no problem. You’re the second young master of the Li Family now. Let’s see which of the Lin Family dares to be bold. I’ll have Uncle Ming beat them to death."
"Girl, don’t casually talk about killing people. If you practice ancient martial arts in the future, you can’t bully others just because you’re powerful, you know." Li Changlin put away his phone and spoke seriously.
"I know." Li Xiaoya obediently responded—she was only speaking casually anyway. She thought it sounded really cool to talk this way.
Li Changlin affectionately patted her head and nodded approvingly, "That’s right, that’s how you should be. If you really need to hit someone, tell your brother, and I’ll arrange for someone to do it."
"Uh..." Li Xiaoya looked up at Li Changlin, astonished. She hadn’t expected her brother to be so violent.
"Brother, do you practice ancient martial arts?" Suddenly recalling that her brother had friends who practiced ancient martial arts, Li Xiaoya curiously asked.
"Of course." Li Changlin spread his hands and smiled, "Although your brother’s skills aren’t high, protecting Xiaoya is no problem. So don’t worry, if anyone bullies you in the future, I won’t just beat him, I’ll beat his whole family!"
"Brother, that’s too cruel!" Li Xiaoya was torn between laughter and tears, but she didn’t take it too much to heart because she felt that even if Li Changlin was formidable, reaching the Initial Stage of Dark Energy would be impressive.
You know, Uncle Ming is a practitioner half-step into Void Energy, Li Xiaoya thought proudly to herself.
The two chatted a bit more, then Li Changlin let Li Xiaoya return to her seat to rest while he started his serious training.
It wasn’t until 11:30 AM that the morning training session came to an end. After Xie Yixin announced the break, everyone gathered around, with several girls wanting to treat Li Xiaoya for lunch, and even Xie Yixin joined in the fun.
Li Changlin laughed, "Maybe next time. Next time we have the chance, we’ll go together. Today we have to have lunch with our parents, sorry everyone."
Li Changlin knew what these ladies were thinking; they were seeing him as the big boss of Sky Horse, now trying to get close to Li Xiaoya in hopes of receiving special treatment at Sky Horse in the future.
"Big Brother Li." Wang Yiyi wasn’t joining in, but as she saw Li Changlin taking Li Xiaoya to leave, she finally couldn’t help but call out.
"What is it, Yiyi?" Li Changlin turned around, looking puzzled at the girl.
Wang Yiyi’s heart tightened, and she hurriedly shook her head, "It’s nothing, nothing. Big Brother Li, Miss Li, please take your time."
"Okay, we’re off then." Li Changlin didn’t think much of it, nodded to the crowd, and left with Li Xiaoya.
"Brother, does Wang Yiyi like you?" Inside the elevator, Li Xiaoya clung to Li Changlin’s arm and gossiped.
Li Changlin couldn’t help but chuckle, but still pretended to consider it for a moment before saying in astonishment, "No way, she and I are just colleagues."
"Hmph, Brother, you’re lying to me. I’ve seen it a long time ago." Li Xiaoya pouted, feeling angry.
"Wow, I didn’t expect our Xiaoya to be so keen. Does Wang Yiyi really like me, yet how come I didn’t know!" Li Changlin feigned confusion. He, of course, knew Wang Yiyi’s feelings, but he had long decided not to entangle with other girls and maintain some distance instead.
Seeing him so perplexed, Li Xiaoya took his words for real and wasn’t angry anymore.
"Brother Changlin, Brother Changlin." When they reached downstairs, Yang Fei, standing at the entrance of Dragon TV, quickly waved and called out, rushing over.
"What brings you here today when there’s no event?" Taking a closer look at Yang Fei, who had not brought any live streaming equipment, Li Changlin was quite puzzled.
Who knew that as soon as he said this, Yang Fei’s face fell, "Brother Changlin, you promised to teach me that..."
Since there were people around, Yang Fei couldn’t say it too openly. Li Changlin was taken aback, then suddenly realized he had promised to teach Yang Fei some kung fu.
"I may be busy these next few days and won’t have time to teach you. I’ll call someone else, you first get familiar with the material." Because of family recognition issues, Li Changlin had indeed overlooked this point, so he took out his phone and called Zhou Wendong over to Shanghai City.
Zhou Wendong was the senior disciple, with skills that were comparable to someone in the Early Stage of Virtual Energy, so Li Changlin was naturally reassured.
However, Yang Fei felt quite hurt, thinking Brother Changlin didn’t value him enough.
After ending the call, Li Changlin patted Yang Fei on the shoulder, "Don’t worry, if I said I’d sort it out in three months, I’ll get it sorted. I need to go have lunch now, go have fun on your own."
"I, I haven’t had lunch either. Brother Changlin, can I tag along? Oh right, this is your sister-in-law, right? I’m Yang Fei, please look after me in the future." Yang Fei had noticed Li Xiaoya earlier—the girl looked around twenty, and Yang Fei had initially thought she was Li Changlin’s fan, as there were rumors about live streamers and their fans. He hadn’t realized Brother Changlin was into this.
"Shut up, this is my sister!" Hearing this, Li Changlin’s forehead turned black, and he kicked Yang Fei.
