Chapter 1475: Chapter 1475: No Chance to Refuse

"Chushui, how could you..."

"It’s fine, we noticed you weren’t here and were just about to leave." Yue Chong interrupted Luo Mianyi’s words, addressing Lin Chushui.

He could tell that whatever Luo Mianyi was about to say, it surely wouldn’t be anything pleasant.

This was apparent from her unsightly expression, which clearly conveyed her disapproval of Lin Chushui helping Lin Caisang pick wild fruits and doing menial work—they were likely upset that their son, whom they saw as a member of their family, would engage in such tasks.

But he, on the other hand, didn’t see anything wrong with adapting to life wherever one found oneself.

If one couldn’t endure even this small hardship, how could they be suitable as a young master of the Yue Clan, as his son, Yue Chong?

Luo Mianyi glanced at Yue Chong, who had interrupted her, and then at her own son, Lin Chushui, pursing her lips.

Since when did she have to moderate her words and actions according to some young girl’s mood? The thought was suffocating, but there was no helping it—for the chance to take her son back home with them, she had to endure it for the time being.

"Tired, aren’t you? Put your stuff down first."

She smiled and walked over to Lin Chushui, speaking to him.

"Mhm."

Lin Chushui nodded his head and took off the bamboo basket he was carrying on his back, then looked towards Lin Caisang.

"Sister Sangsang, let me help you..."

"No, no need."

Lin Changhong saw him reaching out and quickly stopped him.

"Chushui, she is my own little sister. You have to give me a chance to show off in front of my own sister, don’t you? Go on, you just need to take good care of your dad and mom."

While saying this, he cast a meaningful glance at Lin Chushui in a direction where Yue Chong and Luo Mianyi couldn’t see.

Hadn’t he noticed that Luo Mianyi’s face hadn’t eased ever since the young man took up his basket? If Chushui were to help Sangsang at this time, it would only lead to Luo Mianyi cursing inwardly nonstop.

"Mhm."

Lin Chushui looked at Yue Chong and the others, then back at Lin Changhong and lightly responded.

"Chushui, how about this? Your parents are staying on Manghuang Mountain, so why don’t you move there too? The rains these days make me worry, with no one there to keep watch."

Lin Caisang put down her bamboo basket, straightened up, and said to Lin Chushui.

"Move to Manghuang Mountain?" Lin Chushui raised an eyebrow.

He truly hadn’t considered this. Even if he wanted to spend more time with his parents, did he really need to move in together with them?

"Yes, move up to the mountain."

Lin Caisang glanced at him, then looked towards Yue Chong and his wife.

"Actually, I was earlier worried that if Chushui were to go to the Illusion Continent, he might be bullied. Uncle Yue, Aunt Luo, you could take the time on Manghuang Mountain to tell Chushui about the people and events on the Illusion Continent.

Such knowledge would allow him to better understand and prepare for any danger he might face in the future. Then we can all rest easier," she said cheerfully to the couple.

"We..."

Yue Chong opened his mouth, wanting to say he would rather not bring up matters of the Illusion Continent here.

"Sister Sangsang, don’t worry. I will make sure to remember everything my parents tell me. I won’t cause you any worry," Lin Chushui quickly said to Lin Caisang before Yue Chong could refuse.

He understood Sister Sangsang’s meaning: she wanted him to inquire more about the Illusion Continent so that everyone would be informed about what kind of place it was.

That way, when they eventually arrived at the Illusion Continent, they wouldn’t be caught off guard.

Yue Chong: "..."

Did he not even have a chance to refuse?
