Chapter 1767: Chapter 1747: With such a fierce wife, there's no hope of reviving the husband's responsibility in the future_1 Chapter 1767: Chapter 1747: With such a fierce wife, there's no hope of reviving the husband's responsibility in the future_1 At the Flower Appreciation Banquet, Mu Qifu shone brightly, outshining all others in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. As anticipated by the City Lord's Madam, the talented young girl attracted everyone's attention, and her name became well-known after that night.
The Duchess of Zhen was increasingly fond of the talented girl and intended to invite her to stay at her house to foster a connection with her sons.
However, Mu Qifu's heart was not at the Lin residence, but in the medicine shop, so she politely declined the old lady's kindness.
Unaware of the truth, the old lady was quite puzzled.
Considering that City Lord Mu had repeatedly visited the Lin residence, both openly and secretly expressing his intention to marry into the Lin Clan, she couldn't understand why.
Xie Xueying, Ji Tangxu, and two other noble ladies were fortunate to be invited by the Lin Clan to stay at the Lin Residence for a while.
The four noble ladies were overjoyed and readily agreed, staying at the Lin residence that night.
The next morning, following his usual routine, Lin Jinlei arrived at the Martial Arts Arena before dawn and effortlessly practiced a set of spear techniques.
“Swoosh.”
An eye-catching sword light suddenly attacked, and he instinctively raised his spear to block it. When he saw who it was, his heart trembled with surprise.
“Mister Lin, please give me some guidance.”
Xie Xueying, dressed in a dazzling crimson gown, was incredibly stunning. While speaking, she never stopped attacking, her wrist twisting as she thrust her sword again.
Lin Jinlei's pupils shrank, and he dared not be careless, wielding his Ice Emperor Spear to engage with her.
With one wielding a sword and the other a spear, their fight became faster and faster, engaging in hundreds of moves in the blink of an eye.
More and more people came to the Martial Arts Arena for morning exercises. As the Lin siblings arrived one after another, seeing the fierce battle between the two, they couldn't help but tease and laugh.
Feeling cold sweat dripping down the back of his neck, Lin Jinlei wanted to end the fight quickly, but Xie Xueying's sword moves were relentless, making it difficult to break away.
“Mister Lin, please forgive my rudeness.”
After two hundred moves, Xie Xueying feinted with her sword and gracefully retreated, her elegant movement reminiscent of a flying swallow in mid-air, leaving a lasting impression.
“I didn't mean to provoke you. I just wanted to demonstrate my strength in front of you. Please don't misunderstand and think that all the noble ladies from the Spirit Realm are useless in battle.”
“Ahem.”
Lin Jinlei coughed awkwardly, his face flushed.
“Hehe.”
Xie Xueying smirked arrogantly, her eyebrows raised, as she put away her long sword and quickly ran away from the Martial Arts Arena.
“Hahaha.”
The young men of the Lin Clan laughed heartily after watching the good show.
Lin Jinrui gave his ninth brother a suggestive glance and jokingly teased, “Ninth brother, you're finished. With such a fierce wife, there's no hope of asserting your authority as a husband.”
“Hahaha.”
The laughter grew even more boisterous when everyone heard this.
Enduring the irritating noise, Lin Jinlei unconsciously looked in the direction in which Xie Xueying had left, an unusual sparkle flashing in his eyes.
The little morning exercise incident reached the ears of the Duchess, who couldn't be more delighted, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

Longyan City, Medicine Shop.
In the early morning, as the sky was just beginning to brighten, the front door of the medicine shop was knocked on loudly from outside, the drum-like sound enough to make one's heart tremble.
“Who's that, making such a racket this early?”
Lin Ruize was startled awake from his sleep, and sat up irritably mumbling.
“Big brother, you can go back to sleep if you're still tired, I'll go open the door.”
Lin Ruilin, mild-tempered as usual, put on a coat and jumped out of bed, rushing to the front courtyard like the wind.
“Is Immortal Master Mo in? My grandson is critically ill, and we've come to seek medical attention. Please open the door.”
Anxious cries came from outside the medicine shop. Lin Ruilin's heart tightened, and he quickened his pace towards the door.
