Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Zhu Lerong is a weak man, but Lin Chao, who lives with him, is not.

Village Chief Meng knew Lin Chao very well. He was born with supernatural powers and had acquired good fighting skills from fighting wild beasts.

If Lin Chao were to accompany her along the way, she wouldn't worry at all about anything happening to her daughter.

"Let's go find Lin Chao."

Village chief Meng did what she thought. She immediately closed the door and took Zhu Lerong to Lin Chao's house.

When she arrived, Lin Chao was chopping wood. Seeing Village Chief Meng coming, he quickly invited her into the house to sit down and poured her a glass of water.

"Aunt Meng, what do you want to talk to me about today?"

Village Chief Meng smiled and looked kind, and asked:

"Xiao Lin, have you been doing well lately? Don't keep any difficulties in life to yourself. I watched you grow up, just like my own child."

"I know, Aunt Meng." Lin Chao nodded vigorously and looked at her with respect.

What Village Chief Meng said was not false. When she was still young, it was Village Chief Meng who called on the villagers to take care of her together.

"Um……"

Village Chief Meng exchanged pleasantries with Lin Chao for a long time before she spoke out the real purpose of her visit today.

"That's Xiaolin. You know your sister Meng is going to the capital in two days. She has never been to far places before. Your uncle and I are a little worried about her going so far."

"Can you go with her? I can rest assured that you two can have a companion on the road and take care of each other."

Village Chief Meng looked a little embarrassed. He paused for a moment, took out a small purse from his pocket and handed it to Lin Chao.

"Don't worry, you won't run in vain. I have twenty taels of silver here, take it as a reward for protecting Ah-yi all the way."

Twenty taels of silver was a large sum of money for ordinary villagers, but for Village Chief Meng, who had a daughter who had passed the imperial examination, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Meng Ziye passed the imperial examination this year at the age of only nineteen. She was famous at a young age, and many people had high expectations for her future examinations.

Therefore, many people give gifts to build relationships in advance.

Village chief Meng rejected a large number of people who offered gifts, but he could not refuse the rewards from the county and the academy, so he accepted them.

These two places alone are enough to make Village Chief Meng generous with his money.

"I can't accept it, Aunt Meng, I can't accept this money."

When Lin Chao's hand touched the purse, he immediately retracted it as if he had touched hot iron.

Village Chief Meng deliberately frowned, "Why? Are you unwilling to help your aunt?"

"How could that be?" Lin Chao shook his head repeatedly.

She was alone and had no worries wherever she went.

The "little stumbling block" Zhu Lerong who was tied to her body from behind happened to have told her in advance that he was going to the capital.

Now that the elder she had always respected and wanted to repay a favor had asked for her help, there was naturally no reason for her to refuse.

She agreed, but she was unwilling to take the money.

"Aunt Meng, you are going too far. You have taken care of me for more than ten years and never asked me for compensation. Now I am just accompanying Ah Yi to the capital. It is not a big deal. Why should I ask for compensation? Just take it back."

Lin Chao pushed the silver back to Village Chief Meng.

"Just agree to it."

Village Chief Meng let out a long sigh, then took advantage of her inattention and forced his purse into Lin Chao's hand.

"The trip to the capital is not cheap, so you still have to take the money. You are repaying her by protecting her, so don't argue with your Aunt Meng."

"Well... okay." Lin Chao couldn't refuse and finally accepted the purse.

Next to him, Zhu Lerong, who was secretly the one who made everything happen, saw the situation and drank his tea with satisfaction.
