Hidden Master: starting by canceling ten marriage proposals

Taking a taxi, Yin Tian spent nearly an hour and finally returned to the Su Family.

Upon opening the door, many people of the Su Family were all in the living room, chatting idly, each with a serious expression, evidently deep in thought.

Yet, upon seeing Yin Tian come back, everyone merely glanced at him but not a single person greeted him.

Yin Tian was happy to be left at ease and, seeing that Su Qinwei was not on the first floor, headed straight to the second floor.

Pushing open the door, Su Qinwei was sitting in front of her computer desk, engrossed in a book she was holding.

Her two delicate and pale feet were lightly swinging back and forth.

Yin Tian approached and stretched his neck to see the book in Su Qinwei's hands.

Su Qinwei sniffed her delicate nose and then suddenly scrunched it up.

Turning around abruptly, she looked at Yin Tian, "You've been drinking?"

Yin Tian spread his hands, "You noticed that?"

Su Qinwei put down the book in her hands, stood up, and looked at Yin Tian, "Who did you drink with?"

"Hmm..."

Yin Tian started vaguely, "Just a friend..."

"Is Miss Xia that great? A single phone call, and off you went?"

"Not really..."

Yin Tian was still pondering how to explain when he suddenly realized something wasn't right, "How did you know?"

"If you've done something, don't be afraid of it becoming known."

Su Qinwei stood with her hands on her hips, striking a petulant pose.

She had already sensed that Yin Tian wasn't just the Xia Family's gatekeeper.

And his relationship with Xia Nianbing seemed quite good!

Yin Tian opened his mouth and blurted out, "Anyway, you don't want to marry me. In a month, I'll be gone."

No sooner had he spoken than Su Qinwei fell silent.

Indeed.

Initially, she had adamantly stated that she would never be with Yin Tian.

But why did the knowledge of Yin Tian being with another girl unsettle her so much?

As if...

Her favorite thing had been taken by someone else, right?

To her, shouldn't this guy have just been a passerby?

When had she started to like him?

Seeing Su Qinwei's expression, Yin Tian also didn't know what to do.

"That is..."

Scratching the back of his head, Yin Tian awkwardly looked at Su Qinwei, "I misspoke just now, sorry about that..."

But Su Qinwei lifted her head, her face no longer showing a hint of anger, "You're right, it's all your freedom, I can't control it."

Looking at Su Qinwei's eyes, which had lost their usual sparkle and vitality, Yin Tian felt somewhat at a loss.

Just then, voices came from downstairs.

Yin Tian hastily spoke as if latching onto a lifeline, "I'll go check what's happening below..."

With that, Yin Tian quickly left the room and headed downstairs.

Downstairs, a man dressed in a Taoist robe with the demeanor of an immortal was being surrounded by the Su Family as they arrived in the living room.

"Master Shen, please take a look for us. I bought a dressing table yesterday on Antique Street, and since bringing it home, things haven't been right," Su Changhe said with a fawning smile, looking at the man. "I took the thing out this morning, yet my family still feels restless and out of sorts. That's why we asked you to come over and take a look."

Master Shen held a horsetail whisk, and he paced around the house, pretending to search for something.

Yin Tian leaned against the staircase railing, watching Master Shen with great interest.

"Hmm..."

Master Shen pondered for a moment, "Your Su Family seems to be missing someone here."

Startled, Su Changhe's gaze swept over everyone then rapidly nodded, "Yes, yes, I have a daughter who should be resting upstairs right now."

"I need to see her," said Master Shen with narrowed eyes, "Have her come down."

Su Changhe nodded, turned his head, and saw Yin Tian, who was leaning against the railing, "Yin Tian, bring Qinwei down for me."

"Oh..."

Yin Tian's response was languid as he re-entered the room and called Su Qinwei downstairs.

Upon seeing Su Qinwei, Master Shen's previously narrowed eyes instantly widened.

Yin Tian, who'd kept his eyes on Master Shen, raised his eyebrows.

This Master Shen's gaze seemed inappropriate.

That feeling...

Was like a hunter eyeing his prey!

However, Master Shen quickly reverted to his prior comportment, "I have a general idea about your family's situation now."

"What's that? Do you have a solution, Master Shen?"

"There is a solution, of course," said Master Shen, nodding and speaking enigmatically. "I just need to make some arrangements. It's somewhat complex to handle, and I will need the help of your daughter when the time comes."

"My daughter? She doesn't know anything."

"No problem, she just has to assist from the side. I guarantee that your Su Family will turn misfortune into a blessing."

Master Shen's tone was very confident, as if he was sure of his methods.

"Great, great! Then we'll be relying entirely on you, Master Shen, when the time comes."

Su Changhe nodded eagerly.

Yin Tian remained silent the whole time, his gaze continually on Master Shen, his brow slightly furrowed.

For some reason, he always felt that this man was a bit strange.

Because...

In his eyes, he could see wisps of black aura emanating from the man's body.

This man was definitely not a good person!

"Are you still watching?"

As Su Qinwei went upstairs, she cast an irritated glance at Yin Tian, "That Master Shen has already left!"

Yin Tian snapped out of it and followed behind Su Qinwei back upstairs.
