Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter

Chapter 480: Chapter 478: Placing the Little Girl in One’s Heart_1
“Brothers brought you delicious treats.”

Lin Jinzhou’s eyes were filled with tenderness.

“Capital City’s pastries, one of each kind, we brought them all back for you.”

Lin Jinyun’s smile was brilliant.

“Hmm, Qingluo was waiting for you guys to come back.”

Lin Qingluo’s smile was warm.

Lin Jinyu and Lin Jinyang: “….”

It seemed like they had forgotten about their two other brothers.

Since the gold mine was of great importance, Lin Jinyu immediately ordered to seal the news and arranged the most trusted people to guard the entrance, not allowing anyone to enter or leave privately.

Lin Jinzhou and Lin Jinyun left the Mystic Canyon and galloped towards Capital City.

Three days later, they successfully returned to Duke of Zhen’s residence, and solemnly reported the news to Old Master, Duke of Zhen, and Lin Xiaoyang.

After listening, the Old Master was overwhelmed with mixed feelings, as if he saw the dawn amid the thick black fog.

Without a doubt, the person who brought hope and light to Duke of Zhen’s residence’s future was their beloved granddaughter.

Duke of Zhen took this matter very seriously and strictly ordered the two brothers to keep their lips sealed and not to tell anyone.

He also instructed Lin Xiaoyang to contact underground spies in various places to find a suitable smelter as soon as possible.

Lin Xiaoyang obeyed his father’s command, and the Shadow Guards immediately set out to convey the message to those who were trustworthy.

Having operated for many years, Duke of Zhen’s residence had outstanding intelligence capabilities and an extraordinary level of efficiency.

Half a month later, Lin Xiaoyang personally brought experienced smelters to the Mystic Canyon to guide the excavation of the gold mine and the refining of gold. The underground gold mine that had been hidden for thousands of years gradually appeared before people’s eyes.

Ye Mingsheng promised his daughter and personally taught his granddaughter. Within a year of living in the valley, he imparted all his knowledge and wisdom.

Lin Qingluo had a pure and intelligent disposition, showing unparalleled wit.

While studying, she was able to comprehend profound principles and apply lessons learned in class to real-life situations, winning her grandpa’s lavish praise.

During the time Ye Mingsheng taught his granddaughter, his two disciples traveled back and forth, representing their Master at lectures all over the country.

Xu Wei was talented and ambitious, with aspirations of becoming an official in the court.

As a native of Nanqi, he was determined to return to Nanqi.

However, Nanqi’s young emperor was still a child, and the power of the government lay in the hands of treacherous courtiers. The nation’s fortunes were waning, and there was a risk of being annexed by Beiqi.

With the outbreak of war looming, there was no way Xu Wei could serve his country, so he had been unable to take up any position and thus had less fame compared to his fellow disciples.

Setting aside Xu Wei, Ji Liuyun had become famous in his youth and was known as the top talent among the young generation. By the age of ten, he had already earned the title of the number one young prince in Qikuo.

Naturally, the sixteen-year-old prodigy attracted the admiration of many young ladies from distinguished families.

No matter which banquet he attended, it caused a sensation, almost like an Imperial Palace Night Banquet, making countless young ladies infatuated with him.

Ji Liuyun had an indifferent attitude towards fame and wealth. Despite being admired by countless beautiful women, including noble ladies from distinguished families and daughters of influential clans, none of them could ever leave a mark on his heart.

Lin Qingluo was the only exception.

Perhaps fate had played a role, as a bamboo flute opened a new chapter in their lives at the Flute Appreciation Banquet five years ago.

Five years later, a painting in his master’s study revived his memories of the young girl.

The ten-year-old little girl was perceptive and beautiful, with delicate features like jade and snow, leaving an unforgettable impression on anyone who saw her.

From that moment on, the sixteen-year-old young man held the little girl in his heart.

Lin Qingluo was unaware of the young man’s blossoming love, as she focused wholeheartedly on helping her big brother develop the canyon. With the joint efforts of the siblings, the construction of the canyon progressed smoothly.
