Chapter 1099 Du Xingyu's Way of Freedom
Lin Fan became famous for breaking through the Qi training in a short period of time with five spiritual roots.
Changtianmen did not make an explanation for such an abrupt event. They neither told the world for sure that it was true nor that it was not true.
Until this controversial person suddenly became Chengkong's beloved disciple, the direction of discussion suddenly changed from Lin Fan's spiritual root cultivation to her relationship with Chengkong. Among them, the illegitimate daughter was the most "conclusive" and widely circulated.
Not to mention that Lin Fan had five spiritual roots, even if she did not have spiritual roots, Chengkong could pile her up to a high position with various resources as the head of Changtianmen.
So, the farce of retesting the five spiritual roots came to an end.
Everyone's focus on Lin Fan was only on her rumored illegitimate father.
"Junior Brother Du!" Shen Xiuyuan frowned slightly and stopped him.
In fact, everyone had heard about this matter and had some guesses.
Didn't you see that Mu Jingjing's eyes were staring at Lin Fan?
But no matter how much they speculate, no one can ask such an obscure relationship in front of others, right?
Illegitimate father and daughter? This is not a good relationship that can be admitted openly.
Even if it is true, Junior Sister Lin is the most innocent person, and she should not be blamed by the world for no reason.
Shen Xiuyuan looked at Lin Fan worriedly.
Du Xingyu kept looking at Lin Fan without blinking, and when he saw that her expression did not change, he waved at Shen Xiuyuan with a smile on his face.
"Just call me Xingyu, Senior Brother Shen, don't be so polite. This matter has spread everywhere, and people are talking about it everywhere. If I don't ask, someone will ask sooner or later, so it's better to prepare Junior Sister early."
As soon as the voice fell, the storyteller downstairs began to talk about the two or three things of Changtianmen.
Someone downstairs was clamoring to hear the secret of the headmaster's illegitimate daughter. The storyteller clapped his wooden stick and talked about Lin Fan directly.
It was the first time that Lin Fan heard a story with herself as the protagonist. After listening carefully for a while, she found that it had nothing to do with her except the name of the person, so she didn't want to listen any more.
Turning around, the three people at the table were still looking at her. Especially Du Xingyu, who had a look of "I didn't say it wrong" in his eyes.
Lin Fan blinked and said. "No."
"Junior Sister Lin said it, so of course I believe it." Du Xingyu smiled and sat back in the middle of the bench, "But if this is the case, Junior Sister really advances with five spiritual roots, hiss... I'm sorry."
Du Xingyu clasped his fists and grinned at Lin Fan, showing his kindness to her.
Lin Fan was unmoved and lowered his head to eat.
Seeing that Du Xingyu's flattery was in vain, Mu Jingjing said "huh" and started eating.
It was the first time that Du Xingyu met such a difficult junior sister. All the junior sisters in the past were charming and shy. Even if they were heroic and cold, they could not get rid of the girl's politeness. Unlike these two now...
He looked at Shen Xiuyuan opposite.
The gentle man coughed dryly and smiled to help: "Junior Brother Du..."
"Brother, just call me Xingyu." Du Xingyu interrupted.
"...Xingyu," Shen Xiuyuan followed suit, "Junior sisters are new to the secular world, and it is normal to be wary of strangers and things. It will be fine once you get familiar with them."
Is he also on guard against me? Du Xingyu scratched his head.
Before he could think of any response, the door of the box was knocked. The waiter came to serve the dishes.
Du Xingyu became happy again, picked up the wine pot that had just been served, and personally filled the white jade cups in front of the few people.
"Come, come," he sat down, holding the pot in one hand and the cup in the other, "This is a rare fine wine from Fuxianglou. It happens to be the fifteenth day today, and it is the supply day. We must have a few drinks to celebrate our meeting, come!"
The atmosphere was so exciting that no one was spoiling the fun.
In ancient times, there was no distillation technology, and the alcohol content of the liquor was not high, nor was it pure, and it was a bit like fruit wine.
But Lin Fan's tongue still felt bitter and spicy, and he subconsciously frowned and put the empty cup away.
"Little Lin Fan doesn't like to drink?" Du Xingyu smiled when he saw Lin Fan like this, "That's a pity, there is less fun in the world."
Lin Fan turned to look at Du Xingyu.
When did she become Little Lin Fan? Didn't she just call her Junior Sister Lin? Besides, if it's younger, shouldn't Mu Jingjing look younger?
As she was thinking, she saw Du Xingyu turn his head to look at Mu Jingjing again, watching her drink the wine in the glass neatly, without changing her expression, and spoke again.
"Is it delicious? Little Jingjing?"
Mu Jingjing's eyes "swish" to Du Xingyu, her eyes are fierce, as if she wants to beat Du Xingyu, but in the end she slaps the corner of the table. "Noisy!"
Du Xingyu shrank towards Lin Fan, as if he was very scared, one leg was raised high, knees against chest, but the wine pot was still protected by his chest.
"Brother," Du Xingyu's face puffed up, and he complained directly to Shen Xiuyuan, "She is mean to me."
Shen Xiuyuan was speechless.

Lin Fan thought of the introduction just now.
Xiaoyao Gongzi? That's it? Why does he look like a second-rate person who doesn't care about anything? No matter his clothes or behavior. Where can you see the word "Gongzi"?
Picking up a chopstick of food, Lin Fan drooped his eyelids and waited for the development of the situation as if it had nothing to do with him.
Shen Xiuyuan and Du Xingyu were not close friends, but as they were both disciples of the elders and were of similar age, he knew Du Xingyu.
He practiced the Free and Easy Way, and it was settled as soon as he entered the foundation building stage. The name of Young Master Free and Easy also came from this.
Shen Xiuyuan originally thought that Du Xingyu's free and unrestrained way was a state of mind and aloofness, but now that he saw it, he might have thought too much.
Du Xingyu's free and unrestrained way is to walk freely and unrestrained in the world.
There is nothing wrong with being free and unrestrained. But when it comes to Du Xingyu, it seems a little too free.
Because Du Xingyu's Taoism was determined early, his cultivation has been unstoppable since the foundation-building period. He has also walked in the secular world for a long time. When it comes to worldly affairs, he is more proficient than Shen Xiuyuan.
Originally, I thought that Du Xingyu's joining would be even more powerful and reduce a lot of burdens for him. Now it seems...it's still to be determined.
Shen Xiuyuan coughed dryly, "Du...Xingyu, you are not that familiar with the junior sisters yet. As senior brothers, we should be more tolerant, more considerate, and more..."
"I know, senior brother." Du Xingyu immediately sat up straight, showing a look of confession, "I was wrong. I wanted to get close to the junior sisters too much, but it made them unhappy. I know I was wrong, and I will punish myself with three cups."
Before Shen Xiuyuan had time to speak, he saw Du Xingyu "swish swish" three cups of wine.
Then, Du Xingyu apologized to Mu Jingjing in a serious manner.
"Junior sister Jingjing, I was abrupt just now. But I have no ill intentions. I apologize to you here. If there are any mistakes in the future, junior sister Jingjing, please don't be angry. I will punish myself with three cups."
"Praise praise praise" three more cups, Du Xingyu turned to Lin Fan again.
"Little Lin Fan, you know me, you are a good person, you have a good heart, but you are not nice to talk about. I know you are kind, you understand me. I offer you three cups."
Three more cups, Du Xingyu wanted to pour more, there were not many drops left in the pot.
Ignoring the other three people at the table, he leaned on the windowsill and asked for another pot of wine downstairs, then he held his stomach, sat down happily, picked up the chopsticks and ate like crazy.
Lin Fan looked at the pot that was abandoned on the table after it was empty.
He just wanted to drink...
