Chapter 1617: Chapter 1617: Tied Up and Not Allowed to Leave

She continued to speak to Lin Chushui.

"In that unfamiliar place, you will have to start everything anew, and no one will want to accept a stranger, let alone one who takes away everything that belongs to them. No one will be an exception, including your own closest kin.

You are the young master of the Yue Family, and until you become strong, you must show weakness to others, not giving anyone an excuse to harm you."

What kinship? When it comes to interests, nothing else matters, let alone for Lin Chushui, who spent the previous twelve years here, unrelated to the Yue Family.

Since there’s no relation, then there’s no affection either.

Why tolerate those you have no affections for? Even for her, she wouldn’t let others take away what belongs to her.

"After this, you’ll have to rely on yourself."

She let out a deep breath, saying seriously to Lin Chushui.

"Sister Sangsang, I understand all that you’ve said."

Lin Chushui nodded again. Although he understood in his heart, he was still grateful to Lin Caisang.

"It’s good as long as you understand."

Lin Caisang nodded. She wished she could repeat these things to Lin Chushui three hundred times!

"And one last thing, Chushui, you must remember, you are still young and cannot focus on matters of the heart. By matters of the heart, I mean women. In that strange place, you can’t rely on anyone, including women.

You may like her, but she might not approach you because she likes you. Even if a woman does approach you because she likes you, the secrets you carry can only be known by you alone, understand?"

"Sister Sangsang, I’m only twelve years old."

Lin Chushui’s face turned red with embarrassment, and it took him a long time to choke out a sentence.

He’s only twelve, for goodness’ sake. Couldn’t she refrain from discussing women with him at this time?

"When it comes to matters of the heart, there’s no connection with age," Lin Caisang couldn’t help adding another sentence.

"I understand."

Lin Chushui nodded again.

...

"Chushui, remember to take good care of yourself. Don’t ever let yourself be wronged. We of the Lin Family cannot allow ourselves to suffer," Lin Changhong said, patting Lin Chushui’s shoulder outside the gate of the Lin Family house, giving him a word of caution.

He really was worried, but what could he do? When it was time for his brother to leave, he had to let him go.

Could he really tie him up with a rope and not let him leave?

Of course, that was impossible.

"Also, Chushui, this is something mother asked me to give you. She said it could save your life. I don’t know what it is; I nearly forgot to give it to you."

Suddenly, he pulled Lin Chushui aside and stuffed a small cloth bag from his chest into Lin Chushui’s hand.

"Hide it quickly before anyone sees, and put it inside the jade book," he instructed.

"Hmm."

Lin Chushui didn’t have the chance to see what was inside; he simply placed it into the jade book.

After talking for quite some time, and under the repeated urging of Luo Mianyi, Lin Chushui finally boarded the carriage and left the Lin Family, where he had spent his most comfortable days.

"Sigh."

Watching the carriage move farther and farther away, Lin Changhong sighed deeply.

"He hasn’t gone far yet, and I’m already worried. Sangsang, what should I do?"

Lin Caisang glanced sideways, taking a look at her eldest brother.

"Just do what needs to be done. Brother, it’s not like you weren’t worried before Chushui left. You’ve always been worrying, so just keep worrying," she advised.
