I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

Lin Jin thought about how to answer this. She remembered that in this era, neither master and apprentice nor sworn siblings were allowed to get married. If that was the case, then it would be much easier. However, the matter of her and Song Shiqiu being sworn siblings still needed to be investigated.

"I have already rejected you last time. I don't want to be your adopted sister." Lin Jin acted as if she was about to say something but had to face it. "You don't have to do this, sir."

She hoped that the villain would continue to say what she wanted, and maybe today she could successfully resolve Song Shiqiu's urging for marriage.

"If you weren't my sister, why would I protect you everywhere? Lin Liu, think it over carefully first." Song Shiqiu had a sullen face, looking a little intimidating.

Lin Jin was deep in thought. This was beyond her expectations. She forgot that this was the villain. He started threatening her as soon as they disagreed. But it didn't matter. Life was like a play. It all depended on your acting skills.

"Isn't it because of Sister Shi Xia that the Master protected me? If it weren't for Sister Shi Xia, the Master probably wouldn't even look at me." Regardless of what Lin Jin was thinking, her expression didn't change at all. "I always remember what the Master said to me, and the medicine that he asked me to take."

In fact, if it weren't for what happened today, she would have almost forgotten it.

Because she didn't feel any discomfort at all, she almost suspected that the medicine she took was just a trick to scare her, and was actually no different from the Niuhuang Jiedu Pills.

"Don't I even have a choice now whether or not to be the adult's sister?" Lin Jin had a bitter smile on her face. She accused Song Shiqiu on the surface, but she was kowtowing madly in her heart.

No, no, no, she wants to be one, but could you please not urge her to get married so much?

What's the difference between not allowing her to date when she is a student, but asking her to get married and have children after graduation?

Xunmian and Xing'er had not expected this to happen, and their eyes were filled with shock.

No wonder the girl has always been so afraid of adults.

No matter who it is, no one would not be afraid.

Lin Jin looked at Song Shiqiu pitifully and aggrievedly: "That's right, if it weren't for Sister Shixia and the adults' help, I wouldn't have the life I have today. Of course, the adults can decide my life or death at will and control my marriage regardless of my wishes. With just one word from the adults, there is nothing that can't be done."

If Song Shiqiu still had any compassion, he would feel guilty now.

Otherwise, or else she was really being overly sentimental and there was nothing she could do.

But based on Song Shiqiu's attitude towards her during this period, she felt that her chances of winning were still very high and there shouldn't be any problems.

Song Shiqiu had a cold face and no expression: "You agreed to it yourself. When have I ever forced you to do it?"

"Yes, I agreed to it myself. How could I not agree? What can I do if I don't agree? If I don't agree, the master might not be able to keep me!" Lin Jin's eyes were filled with tears, as if she was extremely aggrieved and suppressed to the extreme before exploding. "Not only did I not have the right to choose, I couldn't even feel wronged for myself at that time, right?"

Lin Jin was trembling all over. To others, she looked extremely angry and shocked. Xun Mian quickly sat down beside Lin Jin to help her calm down: "Miss, that's not what the master meant. You should take care of yourself."

Lin Jin covered her lips, sobbing as if she was aggrieved for her powerless self back then. In fact, only she knew that she was not angry, but scared. She was betting that Song Shiqiu was not that hard-hearted. If she won, the matter would be over. If she lost, she would have to build up his favor again before she could get back on his good side.

Lin Jin's sobs mixed with the sound of horse hooves and the turning wheels. Song Shiqiu didn't say anything, Xunmian and Xing'er didn't dare to say a word, and even the coachman didn't dare to say anything. They were all waiting for Song Shiqiu to speak.

Lin Jin waited and waited, until her tears were almost unable to support her acting skills, but Song Shiqiu still didn't speak. Fortunately, they had already arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion. Song Shiqiu got off the carriage first, as if he didn't want to mention the matter anymore, and the matter was thus put aside.

She looked at Song Shiqiu in disbelief as he left like that.

It was still a mistake. She had never expected that Song Shiqiu would just leave and choose to escape. Who could she go to for justice?

Whether he is dead or alive, at least give me a definite answer.

Lin Jin felt like crying but had no tears. Was this considered a failure?

She wiped the tears from her eyes and stood up to get off the carriage. When she opened the door curtain, she was caught off guard and ran into Song Shiqiu's eyes: "Sir."

What? Could it be that he saw through my pretense and is waiting for me to reveal my flaws?

No! If you do that, you will really die.

How can I put it? In short, she regretted it. How could a person like Tarami dare to pretend in front of the villain? She would definitely be exposed.

Lin Jin was crying in her heart about her dark future. Her large, plain hands had thin calluses on them, but they didn't look rough. She was stunned: "Sir?"

She put her hand in Song Shiqiu's palm and got off the carriage with his help. After she got off the carriage, Song Shiqiu immediately let go of her hand and walked in front, with no intention of waiting for Lin Jin.

Lin Jin was puzzled.

What does this mean?

I’ve never seen Song Shiqiu help others before?

Could it be that he was afraid that her brain would be deprived of oxygen and fall to the ground due to crying?

"Why are you standing there in a daze? Do you want your sister Shi Xia to come out and pick you up in person?" Song Shiqiu turned sideways and looked back, as if he was dissatisfied with Lin Jin's dazed look.

"Oh, I see." Lin Jin lifted her skirt and trotted to keep up with Song Shiqiu.

Song Shiqiu seemed like he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing. That look made Lin Jin feel upset.

What does it mean?

Does this mean that this matter is over?

"Sir, should I... still go to the study?" Lin Jin didn't understand what this gloomy look meant. She asked carefully. After all, the answer was really important. If she still wanted to go, it meant that she had to find another way.

Sometimes it's really difficult, even though you are afraid of marriage, you are still urged to get married.

Especially in this age where one cannot fully fit in, this can almost drive a person to death. If she must get married here, it would be better for her to become a nun.

Getting married is a big hurdle. After marriage, there are mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and sisters-in-law to deal with. Even if there are none of these, having a child is still a hurdle, unless she marries a eunuch.

Song Shiqiu looked at Lin Jin deeply and said, "No need."

"Really?" Lin Jin was overjoyed. She never expected Song Shiqiu to give in. "Sir, are you kidding?"

"When did I ever joke with you?" Song Shiqiu seemed to have turned back into the unapproachable Song Shiqiu at the beginning, and the little bit of consideration he had shown not long ago seemed like an illusion.

However, Lin Jin did not take it to heart. She had no feelings for Song Shiqiu. It was just that she was really happy that she didn't have to be urged to get married. This was something Song Shiqiu had promised. Song Shiqiu's promise meant that unless the one who was urging her to get married was the emperor, she could come to Song Shiqiu for help.

"You are so nice, sir. I knew you were a good person." Lin Jin smiled with satisfaction.

Song Shiqiu looked at the pair of red eyes and forced himself to look away: "Your claws were so fierce just now, but now you are starting to act like a spoiled child."

"Ah?" Acting like a spoiled child? She didn't.

Lin Jin always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out, so she decided not to add more trouble to herself. Since Song Shiqiu had made her happy, she would let him say whatever he wanted this time. As long as her goal was achieved, it would be fine.

"Sir, you are not angry, are you?" Lin Jin was still a little worried about this. Although she knew that Song Shiqiu was not that petty, she had talked to Song Shiqiu about this matter several times. What if Song Shiqiu looked calm on the surface but actually felt upset?
