Shenwu Yutianlei

Chapter 262 Sweet Soup

Shen Yun's heart suddenly shuddered, and a sense of tension instantly surged into his heart. He quickly straightened up and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Lord Zuo Xiang, my feelings for Ruyi are evident to all. They are sincere feelings from my heart. I promise you that I will cherish her like a rare treasure and will never let her suffer any injustice." His voice was firm and powerful, and his eyes were full of sincerity and determination.

After listening to Shen Yun's words, Lin Zhen nodded slightly, his expression slightly eased, and said: "Okay, remember what you said today. I hope you can be consistent in your words and deeds, not just verbal promises." After a pause, he continued to ask: "Next, what are your plans?"

Hearing this, Shen Yun fell into deep thought. His eyes became deep, and his mind was quickly thinking about future plans. After a moment, he raised his head and said with a firm gaze: "I plan to invest more energy and time in cultivation, study the way of cultivation more diligently, and strive to break through to a higher realm as soon as possible. The road to cultivation is long, but I have the confidence and perseverance to overcome all difficulties. At the same time, I will continue to improve my strength and ability, whether in martial arts cultivation or in dealing with people, I will strive to do better. I want to make myself strong enough to protect Ruyi from wind and rain, and create a bright future for our future. I will work hard for Ruyi and for my own future, and live up to expectations." His words were full of expectations and determination for the future.

After hearing this, Lin Zhen's mouth corners slightly raised, and that arc made it difficult to predict his true emotions, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry: "Huh, that's easy for you to say. You know, my daughter, Lin Zhen, is a royal branch and jade leaf, and not someone who can marry just anyone." There was a kind of superior majesty in his words that made people feel awe.

Shen Yun was not afraid at all. His eyes were as firm as iron. He looked straight at Lin Zhen without any intention of retreating: "Lord Zuo Xiang, I know that I may not be strong enough at the moment, but I have the determination and courage. I will practice hard, study diligently day and night, and constantly improve my strength. I want to make myself strong enough, strong enough to protect Ruyi and make myself worthy of her." His voice was sonorous and full of firm belief.

Lin Zhen was silent for a while, as if thinking about something. Then, he stood up, walked slowly to the window with steady steps, and said with his back to Shen Yun: "Young man, it is good to have ambition, but ambition alone is far from enough. In this world, there are many people who have ambition but no practical action, and they will eventually become mediocre. My daughter, Lin Zhen, her future husband must be a dragon and phoenix among men, not only with outstanding strength, but also with noble character and extraordinary wisdom. Only such a person can be worthy of my daughter, Lin Zhen." His voice was low and powerful, and the sunlight through the window shone on him, but it could not dispel the majestic aura on him.

Shen Yun said with a firm look in his eyes: "I understand, Lord Zuo Xiang, I know I still have a long way to go. But I will prove myself with practical actions. I will let you see my efforts and growth. I will make myself the ideal son-in-law in your mind." There was a persistent light in his eyes, as if he had already seen his future path.

Lin Zhen turned around and looked at Shen Yun again. There seemed to be something different in his eyes, perhaps a hint of expectation, perhaps a hint of doubt, but more of a scrutiny: "Okay, then I'll wait and see. I hope you won't let me down, or make Ruyi sad. Otherwise, the consequences will not be something you can bear." There was an unquestionable majesty in his words, which made people feel his powerful aura as the Left Prime Minister.

"Daddy, Brother Yun, I'm here!"

At this moment, Lin Ruyi's voice came from outside the study, and she walked in with a tray and two bowls.

When Lin Zhen and Shen Yun heard the voice, they turned around and looked at her.

Lin Ruyi walked to the desk with two bowls of sweet soup, handed one to Lin Zhen, and said coquettishly: "Daddy, this is the sweet soup I made for you myself, you must drink it up.

Lin Zhen smiled helplessly. Looking at his daughter's expectant eyes, he knew very well that his daughter had never been in the kitchen since she was a child, so how could she make sweet soup? It must have been brought from the kitchen. But he smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Daddy will definitely finish it."

Lin Ruyi handed another bowl to Shen Yun, her eyes full of love: "Brother Yun, you try it too."

Shen Yun took the sweet soup and looked at Lin Ruyi gratefully: "Thank you, Ruyi, you have worked hard."

Lin Ruyi smiled and waved her hand: "It's not hard, as long as you like it."

Lin Zhen watched the interaction between his daughter and Shen Yun and sighed inwardly: "Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up."

He could see that his daughter really liked Shen Yun. From childhood to adulthood, the young men who pursued Lin Ruyi lined up from the south to the north of the city. But no man had ever caught Ruyi's eye, not even the outstanding princes of the royal family. He didn't know what drug the guy in front of him had given Ruyi.

If Shen Yun knew what Lin Zhen was thinking at this moment, he would definitely not be able to help but praise him: That’s right, to a certain extent, the pink smoke that erupts from the cold Chimang’s inner elixir can also be considered a kind of "medicine".

"Ruyi, how does this sweet soup taste?" Lin Zhen asked with a smile, a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Lin Ruyi blinked her eyes, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, and said, "Daddy, you will know if you try it."

"Okay, okay, Dad will try what's so special about the sweet soup made by my precious daughter." After Lin Zhen finished speaking, he picked up the spoon, slowly scooped a spoonful of sweet soup and put it into his mouth.

"Dad, how is it?" Lin Ruyi blinked and stared at Lin Zhen closely, looking nervous and expectant.

Lin Zhen pretended to be in deep thought for a moment, a smile flashed across his eyes, and then he said, "Well, this tastes exactly the same as what our chef makes."

Lin Ruyi blushed when she heard this. She knew that her little trick was easily seen through by her father. She stamped her feet a little embarrassedly and said coquettishly, "Oh, Dad, you are really annoying." There was a hint of blame in her tone, but more of intimacy.

Hearing this, Lin Zhen couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter was hearty and loud, echoing in the study.

Lin Ruyi pouted, walked to Lin Zhen, pulled his arm and shook it, "Dad, please stop making fun of your daughter. I just want to make you happy."

Lin Zhen smiled and patted Lin Ruyi's hand, "Okay, Dad knows you are filial. But this sweet soup, Dad feels sweet when he drinks it."

After hearing this, Lin Ruyi smiled brightly, "Dad, as long as you like it, I will make it for you often in the future."

"That's great. Dad's been waiting for you." Lin Zhen said with a smile, his eyes full of satisfaction.

At this time, Shen Yun, who was standing beside him, couldn't help laughing. Lin Ruyi turned around and rolled his eyes at him, "What are you laughing at?"

Shen Yun quickly said: "I think you are very cute, Ruyi, and this sweet soup is full of love."

Lin Ruyi's blush deepened after hearing this. "You are the only one who can talk."
