City: Start practicing Chinese martial arts

Looking at Li Shiya's receding figure, Lin Tian turned around and looked at Xia Linxi's mother. He smiled and asked, "Auntie, since we all live in the same neighborhood, why don't we go home together now?"

Hearing this, Xia Linxi's mother, Lin Xiaoying, was slightly startled, and then revealed a surprised expression: "Lin Tian, you actually live in the same community as us? Do you also live in Tianhai Community?"

Lin Tian nodded gently, the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a faint smile: "Yes, Auntie, I also live in Tianhai Community."

Lin Xiaoying nodded slightly and said with a smile: "I see. Well, since we have nothing else to do now, let's go home together."

So the three of them set out on their journey home together.

Lin Tian walked ahead, his steps steady and powerful. He stood tall and confident, exuding a sense of reliability. Xia Linxi and Lin Xiaoying, mother and daughter, followed behind, chatting quietly, seemingly sharing some private topic.

Lin Xiaoying's eyes were full of curiosity, and she couldn't help but ask her daughter: "Xiaoxi, is Lin Tian really just your classmate?"

Xia Linxi blushed slightly and nodded gently. A hint of subtle shyness flashed in her eyes as she softly replied, "Mom, Lin Tian is indeed my classmate, and we are in the same class now."

Seeing Xia Linxi's expression, Lin Xiaoying smiled slightly, her gaze fell on Lin Tian in front of her, with a thoughtful glint in her eyes.

Then, Lin Xiaoying continued to ask: "Did you know that Lin Tian is so powerful?" There was a hint of doubt and expectation in her voice.

Xia Linxi frowned slightly and fell into a brief moment of thought. After a while, she slowly replied, "Well... I found out about it over a month ago. He saved me back then, too." Her tone revealed a hint of gratitude.

Lin Xiaoying's face suddenly became nervous, and she quickly asked: "What? What danger did you encounter more than a month ago?" Her voice was full of concern and worry, and she was obviously very concerned about Xia Linxi's safety.

Xia Linxi gently shook her head, trying to soothe Lin Xiaoying. She smiled and explained, "It's nothing special. A month ago, I encountered some beastmen. The situation was dire, but Lin Tian showed up just in time and saved my life. It was then that I began to understand the other side of this world." Her expression was filled with emotion and a sense of growth.

After hearing Xia Linxi's explanation, Lin Xiaoying's eyes widened and she glared at Xia Linxi angrily. She angrily scolded her, "You damn girl, why didn't you tell us? We didn't know you were in such danger." Her tone was full of worry and dissatisfaction.

Xia Linxi stuck out her tongue mischievously and said coquettishly, "Oh, Mom, don't be angry! Telling you then would only make you more worried. Am I not fine now?" There was a hint of playfulness and innocence in her smile.

Lin Xiaoying sighed helplessly, knowing that Xia Linxi was right. But as a mother, she couldn't help but worry about her daughter's safety. She gently stroked Xia Linxi's hair and said softly, "No matter what happens in the future, you must tell us."

Xia Linxi nodded obediently, indicating that she understood. Seeing this, Lin Xiaoying said nothing more.

Soon, the group arrived at Tianhai Community.

Lin Tian said to Xia Linxi and Lin Xiaoying, "Xia Linxi, Aunt Lin, I'll go back first."

Hearing that Lin Tian was going back, Lin Xiaoying quickly said, "Classmate Lin Tian, it's almost time for dinner. Why don't you come to our house for dinner? Just as a thank you for saving us this time."

Xia Linxi on the side also agreed: "Yes, Lin Tian, it's getting late today, why don't you come to our house for dinner!" At the same time, she looked at Lin Tian with hope.

Dolly, the beast in Lin Tian's arms, had just woken up. When he heard there was food, he forgot there were outsiders around and said, "Brother, I'm hungry!"

"Cuckoo!"

At the same time, a sound came from Dollymon's stomach.

Seeing this scene, Lin Tian said helplessly: "Okay, sorry to bother you then."

"yeah!"

Hearing Lin Tian's agreement, Xia Linxi showed a happy smile on her face.

Then, Xia Linxi saw that Dollymon had woken up, and hurriedly walked to Lin Tian, carefully took Dollymon from his hands, and held it in his arms.

Xia Linxi's mother, Lin Xiaoying, was also captivated by the Dollymon, her face filled with curiosity and confusion. She couldn't help but ask, "What kind of animal is this? It can even talk!"

Xia Linxi smiled slightly and explained softly: "Mom, you can treat it as a strange animal. Its name is Dollymon, and it has a very well-behaved and cute personality." As she spoke, she gently stroked Dollymon's body, making it feel safe and comfortable.

Dollymon seemed to understand what Xia Linxi meant. It looked at Lin Xiaoying with its big round eyes and greeted her politely: "Hello, I'm Dollymon. Nice to meet you."

Lin Xiaoying was pleasantly surprised to hear Dollymon greet her. She smiled and replied, "Hello, Dollymon, I'm Xia Linxi's mother."

……

Soon, several people arrived at Xia Linxi's door. Xia Linxi's mother Lin Xiaoying sneezed as soon as she opened the door.

She changed her shoes at the entrance, then walked straight to the kitchen door and said in a very unhappy tone, "Did you turn on the range hood? There's so much smoke, it's so choking, are you trying to call the fire department?"

Father Xia held the spatula and coughed as he replied, "Didn't you hear the range hood? It's frying the peppers. It will be ready in a moment."

Lin Xiaoying kept fanning her nose with her hands and quickly took them to Xia Linxi's study room.

Lin Xiaoying said to Lin Tian embarrassedly: "Lin Tian, I'm sorry, it's too choking. I'll just keep you here for now."

Lin Tian said: "It's okay, Auntie, it just so happens that I can study here. By the way, Auntie, don't call me Lin Tian anymore, just call me Xiaotian!"

Hearing this, Xia Linxi's mother, Lin Xiaoying, said, "Okay, Xiaotian."

Then, Lin Xiaoying said to Xia Linxi, "Xiaoxi, you should treat Xiaotian well. I'll call you later when it's time for dinner."

"By the way, can Dollymon eat human food?" Lin Xiaoying asked curiously as she looked at Dollymon in Xia Linxi's arms.

Hearing Lin Xiaoying's question, Lin Tian said: "Dollymon can eat human food."

"That's good." Lin Xiaoying said.

After once again reminding Xia Linxi to entertain Lin Tian well, Lin Xiaoying walked out of the study room.

As soon as I walked out of the study room, Dad Xia came out of the kitchen with a plate of stir-fried beef with peppers.

Father Xia asked quietly, "Who is this boy? Why have I never seen him before? Didn't you go to a wedding ceremony? Why did you bring a boy back?"

"This boy's name is Lin Tian, and he's Xiaoxi's classmate. As for why I brought him here, sit down first. I'll tell you what happened today."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoying took Xia's father to sit on the sofa and began to tell what happened at the wedding banquet today.

After finishing her speech, Lin Xiaoying patted her chest in fear and said, "If Xiaotian hadn't been there this time, it would still be a question whether everyone here could survive."

After listening to Lin Xiaoying's story, Father Xia said with lingering fear: "Yes, it's all thanks to Lin Tian!"

……

In the study room, Xia Linxi watched her mother leave and gently closed the door, her lips curled up slightly. She slowly walked to the desk, gently put Dollymon down, then quickly turned around and flew into Lin Tian's arms like a happy little bird.

Xia Linxi said with joy on her face: "My mother finally passed away. Now there are only two of us. I miss her so much!" After that, she hugged Lin Tian tightly, as if she wanted to merge him into her body.

Lin Tian felt Xia Linxi's enthusiasm and hugged her back vigorously. He asked softly, "Aren't you afraid that your mother will suddenly come in and see us like this?"

Xia Linxi raised her head, looked at Lin Tian with a firm gaze, and smiled, "My mother doesn't have time right now. She should be making dinner with my father to reward you, her lifesaver."

Hearing Xia Linxi's words, Lin Tian felt warm in his heart. He nodded and a happy smile appeared on his face.

Then, Lin Tian gently stroked Xia Linxi's long hair, his eyes sparkling, and said with a smile: "Do you think I have met my father-in-law and mother-in-law in advance today?"

Xia Linxi's cheeks instantly turned red. She lowered her head, gently pounded Lin Tian's chest with her hand, and shyly replied, "What do you think?"
