Chương 234: Love

Looking at Li Xin's anxious and impatient expression, Song Que felt mentally exhausted. Thanks to him frequently entering the city to use Tesseract energy for healing, this brat had practically fully recovered over a week ago. However, it seemed that lying at home for nearly a month had awakened his lazy genes. These past few days, Li Xin had been making every excuse possible to avoid returning to Plum Manor to report to Qin Wu, and Grandee Song had quite an opinion about this.

Therefore, seeing the kid in this state, he couldn't be bothered to pay him much mind. He just said dryly:"If you have something to say, calm down and speak. Rushing around in such a panic, what kind of proper behavior is this?"

"Big Brother, Big Brother, I have an important matter. You have to give me some advice."

"Oh? What is it? Spit it out!" Grandee Song's interest was somewhat piqued.

"This..." Li Xin began to dart his eyes around the surroundings. Aside from Song Que and Xiong Ba, only the Yang sisters were present. After staring intently at the two young maids for a moment, the fellow finally stammered awkwardly:"Big Brother, this matter is a bit delicate." Oh? Grandee Song's interest deepened even further. Seeing this, Yang Mi and Yang Zi hurriedly stood up and spoke politely:"Young Master, then we shall excuse ourselves first!"

"No need, we're all family here, there's nothing you need to avoid. Brat, if you have a fart, release it quickly. What's with all this dilly-dallying?" Song Que waved his hand in displeasure. Seeing this, Li Xin didn't protest further. He hesitated for a moment before finally gritting his teeth and opening his mouth:"Big Brother, it seems... like I'm falling in love." By the time he finished, the kid's face was as red as a monkey's butt. Holy sh*t! Grandee Song's eyes widened, staring at him in disbelief:"You?

Love who? Who loves you?" Three consecutive questions revealed just how unsettled he was. Looking at this brat again... his build was decent enough, but look at his appearance! He was dark, ugly, and his personality was completely reckless and impulsive. To think someone like this actually caught a woman's eye! Could it be some gold-digging woman from out of nowhere trying to use this kid, Li Xin? This was highly likely.

Given his current status as the Pavilion Master's brother and the Li family's wealth, that was definitely enough to attract no shortage of scheming women.

"Who loves who now?" Hearing the commotion caused by little Li over here, Old Nie curiously jogged over to watch the drama unfold. Even the martial arts fanatic, Boss Xiong, stopped what he was doing and glared with his bull-like eyes in this direction. Facing everyone's gazes, Li Xin felt pressure as heavy as a mountain. He awkwardly scratched his head and gave a silly laugh before whispering bashfully:"It's not love yet... no, wait... it is love. Actually, no...

it's like I have feelings of love, but the other party doesn't know yet." Kekeke! The gossip fire of Love Saint Song blazed fiercely. He quickly sat up straight and inquired:"So you have an unrequited crush on someone's daughter, and that's why you haven't come here to train for the past few days?" Since everyone already knew, Li Xin threw caution to the wind and nodded hurriedly in admission:"You could say that. But I still don't know if this is actually love, which is why I came to find you today, Big Brother."

Even though he hadn't had a single relationship in this life, Grandee Song still solemnly patted his shoulder and spoke in a deep voice:"Kid, you've come to the right person." Next, the Poet Song was seen gazing deeply into the distant sky:"Who dares define what love might be? Is it a fleeting afternoon, carefree? It takes my soul with faded sunlight. With gentle clouds, and a soft, soft breeze." Li Xin:???? What? I don't f*cking understand. The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site.

Support the author by reading it there. Ignoring the kid's utterly bewildered expression, Song Que began to dispense his grand wisdom:"Wanting to know if it's love or not is simple. Brat, is your head filled solely with her image all day long right now? Do you always feel nervous and anxious when you know you two are about to meet? And when you do meet, do you feel incredibly foolish, not knowing how to behave? Lastly, do you hate saying goodbye, only wanting to keep the other person all to yourself?" Too accurate!

It seems finding Big Brother when I have a problem is indeed the ultimate truth. Li Xin nodded frantically like a chicken pecking at rice, shouting excitedly:"Yes, yes, Big Brother, that's exactly right! I frequently feel that way." An elder brother is like a father. At this moment, Grandee Song suddenly felt a heavy weight of responsibility. As if his own child had finally grown up, he emotionally patted his shoulder:"Then congratulations, A'Xin. You are indeed in love."

The kid's face flushed bright red with excitement, his eyes brimming with so much affection they practically overflowed. Only Xiong Ba suddenly lost interest. What the hell is love? You can't eat it, and you can't use it to increase your strength. Boss Xiong doesn't give a sh*t. Time to get back to martial arts....... After a long while, having savored the aftertaste of his first love, little Li finally looked at Grandee Song with bright eyes and asked urgently:"Big Brother, what should I do now?"

"What should you do? What else is there? If you love someone, confess! Go find her, boldly shout 'I love you!' A normal woman will naturally be dazed by such an unexpected, blissful surprise. You then press your advantage: grab her hand, hug her tightly, and intimately give her a passionate kiss. Once the wood is already shaped into a boat, she'll have to love you even if she didn't initially. And even if she doesn't, you haven't lost out—you've already taken enough advantage anyway."

The thief Song talked big, spit flying everywhere. Old Nie and the Yang sisters felt their hearts tremble repeatedly, thinking to themselves that if this kid really followed his advice, there was a 90% chance he'd be branded a lecher and thrown straight into the grand prison. Even though Li Xin revered his Big Brother like a god, he still knew this method was incredibly unreliable.

He only dared to wildly fantasize about it for a moment before regretfully swallowing his saliva and asking:"Big Brother, is there a slightly safer method? Is there any way to figure out if the other party likes me or not?" Having his brilliant scheme rejected made Grandee Song a little displeased. But considering this kid's skin was still thin, he suppressed his annoyance and answered:"That's not difficult.

Based on my many years of experience on the battlefield of love, if a woman patiently talks with you, doesn't mind frequently meeting and interacting with you, and furthermore, shows care and concern for you... then it is absolutely certain she has feelings for you. Well, think carefully. Has the other party shown any of these behaviors towards you?"

"This... it seems... yes, she has! She frequently talks to me and takes care of me! Big Brother, does that mean she loves me too?" Little Li's voice unconsciously rose a few pitches.

"Oh? Who fell in love with you, brat?" A voice suddenly rang out at this moment.

"Heh, Brother Hong, what brings you here?"

"Young Master Song!" It turned out the arrivals were Zhong Hong and Fan Yiwang. Hearing Song Que's question, Old Zhong grew displeased:"What? Can I not return to stay in my own house here?"

"Haha, a slip of the tongue on my part. Naturally, this place will always be your home. I was just curious how you managed to have so much free time today."

"Don't even mention it. The work was too exhausting, so I decided to take a day off. So, A'Xin, tell your brother, which girl caught your eye?" Zhong Hong now also looked at Li Xin with blazing, gossipy eyes.

"Heh heh, he's currently suffering from unrequited love for someone's daughter, but the other party's intentions are still unclear," Grandee Song cheerfully shared with the newcomer. In an instant, a temporary romantic counseling team was formed. Several grown men pulled up chairs, surrounding little Li as they curiously probed him.

"A'Xin, tell us, whose daughter is it?" His face flushed a suffocating red. After hesitating for a long while, Li Xin finally gritted his teeth and shook his head:"I can't say it right now!"

"Fine, then we won't ask. Brat, just tell us what you want to know, and we'll give you some advice." Suddenly finding a source of entertainment, Grandee Song was absolutely delighted.

"Big Brother, according to what you said, she probably has feelings for me too. What should I do next?" Li Xin asked, his eyes blazing with intense desire as he looked over.

"Squeak... squeak... squeak!" Mengmeng, who had been listening to the juicy gossip all this time, finally stood up to express its opinion. Of course, no one understood fox-speak, so no one cared what it said. This deeply hurt the black-bellied fox. It indignantly stood up tall, clinging to Grandee Song's arm, and shrieked:"Squeaaaaakkk... squeak, squeak..."

"Young Master, what is it saying?" At this moment, everyone realized the little creature had something to say. Yang Zi curiously hurried to ask. Unable to resist this little rascal, Song Que had no choice but to act as its translator with a dark expression:"It advises A'Xin to buy a roast chicken and give it to her. If she accepts, it means she has agreed, and you can proceed to mate." Everyone:..... F*ck. The people in the courtyard couldn't hold back and clutched their stomachs, bursting into laughter.

The Yang sisters even thought he was making things up, their faces turning red as they lightly pounded him with their little fists. Grandee Song also felt bitter inside. This was truly the exact, unedited version of what this thieving fox had said. He had merely translated it literally. He truly couldn't fathom where this little rascal had learned a stomach full of so many wicked thoughts. Seeing its golden words of wisdom being mocked by these mortals, Princess Mengmeng's fury was understandable.

The black-bellied fox glared, its fur puffing up, and it immediately shrieked, calling for its two subordinate generals, Husky anh Little Black. Amused, Grandee Song picked it up by the scruff of its neck to calm it down, then smiled and said:"Although Mengmeng spoke a bit crudely, its method has a point. Li Xin, you can first find out what she likes, then prepare gifts to occasionally give her, increasing the affection between you."

"Heh heh, women all generally have a few of those common interests. A'Xin, when you go back, take her out for a stroll around the streets. Look at clothes, fabrics, jewelry—buy her whatever she likes. I guarantee that in a few days, she'll listen to whatever you say and obediently follow you." Zhong Hong also chimed in. Old Zhong currently held significant financial power, and his way of doing things—power stems from rice, boldness stems from money—was also extremely crude.

He definitely had no shortage of romantic entanglements with the loose women in the city. With everyone offering different ideas, after listening to the counseling team's advice, Li Xin's head was now as big as a bucket, not knowing who to follow. In the end, he still found his Big Brother the most reliable.
