Now, how nice, Lin Yifan actually blamed her; she really wanted to ask him, "What right do you have to criticize me?"
Lin Yifan knew the mistake was entirely his fault, so he immediately apologized, "Alright, alright, it's all my fault, my sweet sister, please come back with me to see our parents, they really miss you."
"Hmph! That's more like it." Xiao Lian snorted coldly, utterly pleased with herself.
"So, you're agreeing?" Lin Yifan asked curiously.
"If you ever dare to threaten me like that again, I won't play with you anymore." Xiao Lian replied.
Although she didn't spell it out, the meaning was quite clear.
She felt a deep sense of guilt and thought it was time to go home and properly see her parents.
"That's great, let's head home tomorrow," Lin Yifan suggested.
"Tomorrow? That's so soon? We're not even ready yet," Zhou Jiajia and the others felt it was too rushed, they hadn't even gone shopping to buy gifts for their future in-laws.
"No need to prepare anything; just getting ourselves ready is enough. I believe seeing the four beautiful daughters-in-law will certainly make them overjoyed," Lin Yifan responded.
Thinking about bringing four stunning beauties home made him feel extremely proud. He was amazed that a former country bumpkin like himself could end up with such beautiful partners.
"How can that be okay? We must bring gifts when meeting the parents; otherwise, it might leave a bad impression," Zhou Jiajia and the others replied in unison.
"Oh come on! My parents aren't as scary and aloof as you think, they are very easy to talk to," Lin Yifan explained.
"No matter what you say, we must buy gifts," Zhou Jiajia and the others firmly refused to budge.
Seeing this, Lin Yifan had no choice but to compromise, "Alright, alright, let's shop! Let's go shopping right now."
After saying that, he immediately took Zhou Jiajia and the others out shopping for gifts.
While walking on the street, Zhou Jiajia and the others kept asking Lin Yifan about his uncle and aunt's height, build, weight, likes, and so on; they were determined to buy the most suitable gifts to make a good first impression.
To make the parents like Zhou Jiajia and the others even more, Lin Yifan answered all their questions; for those he didn't know, he asked Xiao Lian to fill in the answers.
After spending an entire afternoon and evening shopping, Zhou Jiajia and the others finally felt satisfied with the gifts they had chosen; only then were they ready to go home.
Lin Yifan still played the role of a pack mule, draped with various large and small bags, becoming a striking spectacle on the street.
Of course, this scene was also observed by someone secretly following them.
The enemies in hiding, seeing Zhou Jiajia and the four women buying things like clothes and health products for the elderly, as well as Maotai liquor, deduced that they might be accompanying Lin Yifan to meet his parents.
This was excellent news for them. They could secretly follow them to find out Lin Yifan's hometown; then, when Lin Yifan returned to Guiyuan City, they could strike by capturing his parents at his hometown to force Lin Yifan to end himself.
Thinking this, the cautious Lin Yifan had naturally considered this possibility as well.
Therefore, tomorrow, he planned to play a counterplot against this hidden enemy.
After returning home with bags in hand, Lin Yifan took a shower, then called Yi Chen to discuss tomorrow's itinerary and the counterplot strategy.
Yi Chen had already finished his cultivation retreat, and his current realm was at the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm, which could be described as progressing by leaps and bounds.
"Yifan, thank you for your Yuan Force Pills. Without you, Yi Chen wouldn't be where he is today!" Yi Chen was tearfully grateful.
If it hadn't been for Lin Yifan's generous assistance this time, he might have spent many more years, perhaps even over a decade, to reach the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm. Since there was really not much spiritual energy in the city, it was difficult for him to advance.
"Hey! No need to mention it, we're all brothers here; I help where I can." Lin Yifan interrupted Yi Chen's gratitude and moved on to the main topic, "Tomorrow, I plan to take Zhou Jiajia and the others back to my hometown. Right now, I've been targeted by enemies, so I want to play a trick on them; the specific plan is..."
"Uh! Yifan, I know what to do, just leave everything to me." Yi Chen patted his chest, promising.
"Then I'm relieved." Lin Yifan sighed in relief, then said, "Alright, you go back and prepare well now. I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow."
"Okay! Yifan, you rest early too." After saying that, Yi Chen left the villa with long strides.
After making the arrangements, Lin Yifan chatted with Zhou Jiajia and the others for a while, then went back to his own room to rest.
Time flew swiftly, and soon it was the next morning.
At this time, Lin Yifan got up early to take care of everything for his "wives."
At this moment, Zhou Jiajia and the others also got up.
To make a good impression on their future parents-in-law, they took particular care to dress up, presenting their most beautiful sides.
It wasn't a matter of just a moment for women to apply makeup, and Lin Yifan ended up waiting for more than an hour before Zhou Jiajia and the others were ready.
Seeing the appearance of his four "wives" today, he felt that waiting for over an hour was worth it.
With makeup on, Zhou Jiajia and the others looked completely transformed, far more beautiful than any description of stunning beauty; they could even compete with Heavenly Immortals.
Lin Yifan was dumbstruck, drooling unconsciously, watching the scene in disbelief, his heart blooming like flowers in spring, splendid beyond measure.
"Brother! Mind your image, don't just drool whenever you see beautiful women," Xiao Lian reminded from the side.
She had also been waiting here for a long time, and though she had also put on makeup today, it hadn't taken her nearly as long as Zhou Jiajia and the others; thus, she had been complaining here for some time, feeling somewhat shattered.
Hearing Xiao Lian's reminder, Lin Yifan came to his senses, then took out a tissue to wipe the drool from the corner of his mouth.
This scene was seen by Zhou Jiajia and the others. Seeing their man drooling over their beauty, Zhou Jiajia and the others felt that spending more than an hour dressing up was worth it, and they were even more confident in their appearance.
Then, they approached Lin Yifan, curiously asking, "Yifan! Do we look beautiful today? Is there anything that needs to be improved?"
"My four sisters-in-law, you are already as beautiful as Heavenly Immortals; if you dress up any more, you might just outshine the universe. We better hurry up and leave, it's getting late," Xiao Lian urged.
She didn't want to wait another hour again.
"You're the most anxious."
Flattered by the praise, Zhou Jiajia and the others were overjoyed. However, that was just Xiao Lian being impatient, which wasn't very convincing. Subsequently, they asked Lin Yifan again, "Yifan, what do you think?"
"I agree with Xiao Lian, you couldn't be more beautiful; if you were, even the heavens might get jealous," Lin Yifan responded.
