Chapter 207 Don't ask me, don't ask me
"I picked some wild tea on the mountain earlier. If you want some, I'll get it for you in a bit."
"No, no, I don't want to drink, I don't want to drink..."
She thought the taste was okay, but she didn't like drinking it. Besides, tea is something that people who cultivate their character should do, but she didn't cultivate her character or her mind, and she didn't like living that kind of boring life.
The tea leaves were not delivered. Gu Zhan looked at the tea leaves floating in the cup. The Purple Cloud Mountain Mist, which couldn't be bought for five taels of silver, didn't seem to taste that good.
The two people over there were chasing each other but never actually fought. Seeing them playing around like it was nothing, Lin Cai rolled her eyes.
She ignored them, regardless of whether they could hear her or know anything. She turned to look at Gu Zhan and asked him directly.
"You just got back that day, where did the rice come from?"
The courtyard wasn't very big to begin with, so the sounds of fighting over there and talking over there could be heard from both sides.
The two people who were chasing each other just a second ago stopped after hearing these words and looked at the two people sitting at the table.
"Old Lin, do we have any rice at home?"
"Don't you know? Didn't you just come from over there?"
"I went out for a while and only got back this morning. What the hell would I know!"
"You don't know, you can't read it, why are you coming to ask me? I don't know either."
He knew which matter his sister was asking about, but it was something he couldn't and shouldn't say; if he said it wrong, it could lead to serious trouble!
"That's your sister's house. As her older brother, don't you keep an eye on it?"
Lin Bao retorted with a sarcastic remark to Scarface, who immediately retorted back. Upon hearing this, Lin Bao turned and stared at Scarface with a sly look.
If eyes could turn into knives, Scarface's head would probably be riddled with holes by now.
"If you can't speak, then shut up. Nobody thinks you're mute."
"Lin Bao! Do you want to fight me? If you want to fight me, just say so. I guarantee I'll beat you so badly you won't be able to get up."
"Oh my god, you're so powerful! I'm so scared! You even beat me so badly I can't get up. Who do you think you are?"
"If you had Old Gu's skills, I would believe you could beat me so badly I couldn't get up. But in your current state, are you sure you can do it?"
"I may not have his skills, but I can still beat you so badly you can't get up. If you don't believe me, let's try."
"Let's give it a try! Who's afraid of who!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two immediately distanced themselves and started fighting. Seeing that they were actually fighting, Lin Cai was speechless.
How old are these two? Why do they fight like children all the time? Don't they get tired?
Feeling speechless, Lin Cai's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at him, and her expression changed. Gu Zhan, who was sitting next to her, noticed these changes.
He glanced discreetly at the two people fighting, then took a sip of his tea.
That calm and collected demeanor, as if it were none of his business, was perfectly captured.
However, the other two people were completely unaware of this, especially Lin Bao, one of the parties involved.
He has completely forgotten that in Lin Caiyan's eyes, heart, and in front of her, he is just a small-time hoodlum who only knows a little bit of martial arts, likes to be a scoundrel, and has a bad temper.
But could a petty thug have such skills?
Lin Cai sat in the courtyard for as long as Lin Bao and his men fought, watching them fight.
After the two finished fighting, Lin Cai clapped her hands with a smile.
"Clap clap clap, not bad kung fu. You've been fighting for so long and still haven't decided who's the winner. It seems you two are both very good at kung fu."
Upon hearing his sister praise him, Lin Bao's first reaction was happiness, his second was pride, and his third was, "Oh no, I've been exposed!"
Lin Cai walked up to her third brother, squatted down, and looked at the person on the ground: "Third brother, how was that fight? Did you enjoy it?"
"You said you used to have such great kung fu skills, how come I had no idea? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I might not have believed it!"
"Your kung fu is so good, your parents and older brother must all know, so I'm probably the only one in our family who doesn't know!"
"Little sister, let me explain... oh, I mean, let me tell you, things aren't actually like that..."
"Oh, it's not what I thought? What did I think? What was I thinking? I don't know what I was thinking?"
"Little sister, please listen to my explanation. It's really not what you think. Actually..."
Lin Bao tried to explain several times, but was interrupted each time. Then he heard Lin Cai say, "Third Brother, your kung fu is so amazing, are Eldest Brother and the others also amazing?"
"They're all so amazing, why am I not amazing at all? And I'm also incredibly stupid. You're all so outstanding, and I don't even know it. It seems I'm the dumbest one in our family!"
"As expected, you've never let me do anything since I was little; it's all for my own good!"
"I was so stupid back then, I definitely couldn't do anything right, so of course you wouldn't let me cause you trouble!"
Lin Cai sighed as she spoke, leaving Lin Bao speechless. Scarface, lying nearby, wished he could disappear on the spot upon hearing this.
Having dealt with the three Lin brothers for so long, he was absolutely certain of their fighting prowess.
What if this little miss finishes messing with her brother and then comes over to mess with me? Should I tell her or not?
Scarface decided it would be better to make a run for it, but plans don't always go as expected. Before he could slip away, he heard Lin Cai ask her question.
“Brother Scarface, you’ve met my other two brothers, haven’t you? They must have been in contact with you quite a bit, you know them…”
"Sister Lin, don't ask me, don't ask me, I don't know anything, I don't know anything..."
“I haven’t known them for very long, you can count the number of people you’ve known on one hand, so you’ve asked the wrong person. I don’t know anything about them.”
Lin Cai's lips twitched when she heard his denial. She hadn't even finished speaking, so why was he in such a hurry to deny it?
She just wanted to know how many times he had been beaten. Wasn't that a question she could ask?
After Scarface finished speaking, he didn't care about what happened next, stood up and ran away. Lin Bao lay on the ground, unwilling to move.
He knew he couldn't escape. Even if he could escape the monk, he couldn't escape the temple. He was interrogated until dark, and he said everything he should and shouldn't have answered.
