Lin Bingbing learned this news from her best friend over the phone. After hearing it, she could only question her mother, feeling helpless.
At Quiet Villa, Jiang Chen was preparing to head out again. He had promised Li Fushi that he would visit the Sword Immortal Ruins. Lin Yin wanted to accompany him, but Jiang Chen refused. Although Lin Yin's strength was decent, it was still insufficient in the presence of those from Hidden Sects.
Jiang Luyi drove Jiang Chen to the airport. On the way, he asked, "Young Master, have you seen the recent news about Lin Bingbing?"
"What news?" Jiang Chen replied.
"The news says that Lin Bingbing is engaged to the second son of the Shi family from Yulu City."
"Oh."
Seeing Jiang Chen's expression unchanged, Jiang Luyi continued, "Actually, after I found out about this, I asked Director Zhang. He also inquired with Lin Bingbing, and it turns out that her mother unilaterally agreed to marry Lin Bingbing into the Shi family. It's quite pitiful for her; her mother has always favored sons over daughters and treated her like a cash cow. This time, she even accepted two villas as a bride price from the Shi family."
Jiang Chen remained indifferent.
"Young Master, should we help Lin Bingbing?" Jiang Luyi tentatively asked.
"Let her focus on filming for now. There’s no need to worry about other matters. As for her family affairs, we can discuss them after filming is completed," Jiang Chen replied calmly. He only paid attention to this trivial matter because he knew Lin Bingbing; otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered.
The rest of the journey was silent. When the plane landed at Xianyang Airport, Jiang Chen still had to take a bus to Bi Yun County, which was hundreds of miles away from the capital of Shaan Province.
There was only one bus to Bi Yun County each day. When Jiang Chen arrived at the bus station and boarded the bus, it was nearly full of passengers.
"Why are there so many people heading to Bi Yun these days? And they all seem to be from out of town. Young man, what are you going to Bi Yun for?" the driver asked curiously.
"Visiting relatives," Jiang Chen casually replied as he walked further into the bus. The passengers glanced at him here and there but quickly looked away.
As Jiang Chen reached the middle of the bus and spotted an empty seat next to a young woman, he intended to sit down. However, she placed her bag on the seat and said coldly, "Someone is sitting here."
Jiang Chen smiled but said nothing and continued moving toward the back.
"Young man, sit here," an elderly man in the back said with a smile, patting the seat beside him.
Jiang Chen returned a friendly smile and sat down next to him. There were only a few seats left on the bus now.
Once seated, the elderly man was very friendly and kept chatting with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen noticed that most people on the bus were martial artists, though their skills were quite weak. The young woman from earlier and this elderly man were both Martial Artists as well; however, Jiang Chen was certain they were not from Hidden Sects or any renowned Martial Arts Families or sects in the mundane world due to their lack of strength—calling them martial arts enthusiasts would be more fitting.
These people did not know each other but were all headed to the same destination. It seemed that news about the Sword Immortal Ruins had spread widely in the martial arts community.
Such individuals were merely going along for the ride and joining in on the excitement; they had no real connection to the Sword Immortal Ruins.
