Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

Lin Ping detested forced marriage the most, and even though Zhou Xiyin had little to do with him, he wouldn't allow it to happen, so his kick was driven by anger. However, when he heard the name Ruan Dan, he still burst out laughing.

"Say it again, what's your name?" Lin Ping tried hard to control himself from laughing out loud. Beating up the son of the judge was a very serious matter, how could he laugh so casually?

"This young master is Ruan Dan!" The son of the judge puffed out his chest, which had almost been broken by Lin Ping's kick, and said arrogantly, mistakenly believing that Lin Ping had heard of his great name and was now going to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"That's exactly what I'm going to beat up, you coward!" Lin Ping said angrily, rushing forward and kicking him again, this time shoving the coward to the ground and stepping on his chest, saying, "Get out of here now!"

Ruan Dan was completely dumbfounded. He never dreamed that there would be such a blind person in the world. He was the son of the judge of the world, and the dozen or so servants behind him were not to be trifled with. How could he allow a lowly commoner like him to beat him up?

The dozen or so servants were also somewhat bewildered, looking around and asking, "Young Master...did he get beaten up?"

That's right, he got beaten up, and not badly.

Not only were Ruan Dan and his group surprised, but everyone in the Zhou family was also taken aback, muttering to themselves: "Can the son of the transport judge really fight?"

Despite having this question, he was secretly thrilled. So what if he's the son of a fortune teller? He's still being trampled underfoot.

To be honest, Zhou Xiyin was moved the moment Lin Ping rushed out, imagining her beloved clad in golden armor, riding on auspicious clouds to greet her.

But when they saw the person's face, all the beauty vanished. Wasn't this the lecherous thief who had ulterior motives last night?

How did it get out?

"You lecherous scoundrel, what are you trying to do?" Zhou Xiyin really didn't know how to address Lin Ping, and was still using the name she had used last night.

"If you don't like her, why force yourself to marry her? What a stupid woman!" Lin Ping said sarcastically, seemingly scolding but actually showing some concern.

"This is my business, it's none of your concern!" Zhou Xiyin replied coldly, then her nose tingled and she burst into tears.

As a woman, how could she not dream of a romantic love? When she agreed to marry Ruan Dan, her heart was broken. She longed for someone to stand up for her and protect her from the storm. But who would have thought that the lecherous thief who tried to take advantage of her last night would stand in front of her?

It was a peculiar feeling, less one of being moved and more one of heartache. It felt as if the whole world had abandoned me.

At this moment, she was conflicted. Rationally, she couldn't ruin the engagement; emotionally, she didn't want a lecherous thief to avenge her. How perfectly these two outcomes aligned!

"That's not up to you. Master Ping never needs his master's permission to help those in need!" Lin Ping knew Zhou Xiyin's helplessness, so he naturally wouldn't back down. Otherwise, he would lose face and might even get beaten up by Ruan Dan.

"What are you all standing there for? Beat him! Beat him to death!" Ruan shouted angrily as Lin Ping trampled him underfoot.

It was only then that the dozen or so servants realized that their young master had been beaten up. This was unacceptable!

It must be said that Ruan Dan's dozen or so servants were really something else; their fire sticks were thicker than their arms, and they swarmed towards Lin Ping.

"Are you all useless? Do you only feel happy when your young lady is taken away? Where did your energy go when you were dealing with me last night?" Lin Ping berated the dozen or so servants of the Zhou family.

Some people are just oblivious; they don't know which group they belong to unless someone points it out to them.

Although Zhou Xiyin was somewhat willful, she was generally quite good to them, and they didn't want to watch her marry Ruan Dan, a playboy.

"Damn it, let's fight them!" The head servant of the Zhou family rushed forward with a wooden stick. He had long disapproved of Ruan Dan's behavior, and now that Lin Ping had stepped forward, he put aside his inner concerns, even if he got a beating.

Even Lin Ping, a lecherous scoundrel with no connection to the Zhou family, has made his move; what reason do they have to back down?

"What are you trying to do? Stop it all!" Seeing all the servants rushing up to fight the enemy, Zhou Xiyin completely lost control of the situation.

This time she was truly moved, staring at Lin Ping with a surprised look, a feeling welling up inside her.

Judging from his appearance, Lin Ping is very handsome and decisive, which is exactly the type she likes. However, it is hard to accept that he broke into her room at night.

The moment the servant picked up the wooden stick, he made his stance clear: he would not stop because of Zhou Xiyin's attempts to stop him.

"Go to hell!" Lin Ping kicked Ruan Dan hard in the chest. With the Zhou family's servants protecting him, he was not in any danger at all and could ravage Ruan Dan to his heart's content. Who told him to have that name?

Seeing that her servants were surrounded and had no advantage, Ruan Danzhen panicked. The engagement had not only failed but she had also been beaten. If word got out, how could she be considered a scoundrel in the future?

"Hurry back to the manor and call for help!" Ruan Dan shouted hysterically, truly unable to fathom what Lin Ping was thinking.

As the saying goes, the weak fear the strong, and the strong fear the reckless. You, Ruan Dan, have luck backing you up, so you might be considered strong, but I, Lin Ping, am the reckless one.

The servants of the Zhou family were fighting when Ruan Dan, unexpectedly, had this trick up his sleeve and ultimately failed to stop a servant who was moving with incredible speed.

"Hmph, you wait, I'm going to skin you alive!" Ruan Dan regained his confidence as he watched the servants go back to report.

These dozen or so people were just bluffing followers; they weren't very strong in combat. The guards around the judge were the real experts, capable of taking on two or even four opponents at once. In that case, not only would the servants of the Zhou family be crippled, but they would also be sent to prison.

As for Lin Ping... Ruan Dan wants him dead!

Ruan Dan was, after all, a son of a high-ranking official, and what he valued most was his reputation. Even his marriage to Zhou Xiyin was to show off to other playboys, since Zhou Xiyin was a well-known beauty in the area.

If his dog-loving friends knew about his miserable state, they would definitely laugh their heads off and he would never be able to hold his head up high again.

Therefore, even if it means being accused of murder, Ruan Dan is determined to kill Lin Ping.

At worst, they could just shift the blame to a servant and settle the matter by paying some money; after all, their father had some connections with the prefect.

"Sorry, but I'll skin you alive right now!" Lin Ping grinned menacingly, completely like a madman.

"What do you want to do?" Ruan Dan was frightened by Lin Ping's sinister gaze and asked tremblingly, slowly wriggling backward using the strength of her waist.

"What? That's a good question!" Lin Ping's smile grew even more sinister. "Didn't you want to marry Miss Lin? I'll put an end to that idea for you now!"

After speaking, Lin Ping kicked the other man hard in the groin, and the miserable sound sent chills down everyone's spine.
