Moving Peaks to Propose! Zhiyan Enters Seclusion!

Lin Zhiyan nodded. "Sure. Your affairs are yours to decide. You needn't ask me."

Lin Gong said in surprise, "Really? Sis, you agree? I thought you'd object."

Lin Zhiyan's tone softened. "You're an adult now. Do you really need to ask me about something this minor? As long as you've thought it through, that's enough."

Lin Gong chuckled. "Isn't this us showing you respect? You're my sister—an elder sister is like a mother. Of course I have to ask you about something important." His voice was full of ingratiation.

Lin Zhiyan glanced at him without speaking. Having received her approval, Lin Gong was immensely excited.

He rubbed his hands together and paced around the courtyard a few times before continuing, "Sis, there's one more thing, that is..." He hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.

Lin Zhiyan said, "If you have something to say, say it. You're a grown man—why be so hesitant?"

Lin Gong's voice grew softer, like the buzz of a mosquito. "It's just... just... when Brother Yang and I leave, we want to take two people with us." His voice was quiet, but Lin Zhiyan heard every word clearly.

Lin Zhiyan asked in puzzlement, "Two people?"

Yang Kai stepped forward and cupped his hands. "Young Miss, you may not know this, but during the time you were away, Miss Luo Xuexi of Ice Peak and I fell in love and wish to become Dao companions."

"This time, we came to ask Young Miss to propose marriage to Xuexi's Master on my behalf. Xuexi and I are in love with each other, and I hope Young Miss will grant us your blessing."

Lin Gong added, "Sis, me too. Sister Xuexi has a younger sister named Luo Xueyao. We... we're together too. I also want you to propose marriage
