Chapter 376: Chapter 396: Should I Be Happy or Sad? _1

Lin Chen laughed.

"Who has sent you?"

Zuo Yingying clung to Lin Chen’s arm and said with a pout, "It’s my dad’s order. How could he not react when you managed to topple the Shenyun Sect on your own without getting into any trouble yourself?"

Lin Chen joked, "Oh? So he sent you here to pick me up because he wants to treat me to dinner?"

Zuo Yingying smiled, "He did think about it, but he didn’t have the guts. When you clashed with the Shenyun Sect, my dad chose to stay away from you and just watch. He’s regretting it now, as he missed a perfect opportunity to give timely help. So now all he can do is patching things up by using his daughter to gain favor."

"He’s exaggerating."

Lin Chen laughed, "Even if I was a Grandmaster, I wouldn’t warrant such a reaction. After all, the Zuo Family is the richest one in Tianhai."

Zuo Yingying laughed, "Being the richest is only a superficial title in reality. There are plenty of wealthier people in Tianhai Province than my family, especially the Three Sects and Four Clans. For example, the Shenyun Sect you were up against, they monopolize countless industries in Shenyun City and have influence far and wide... "

Lin Chen arrived at the car, tossed his bag into the trunk, and said with a smile, "Well, your dad’s approach wasn’t wrong. I mean, considering that I wasn’t even an Innate Grandmaster yet, how could I possibly have fought against the Shenyun Sect? Staying away from me was the logical thing to do."

Zuo Yingying smiled, "But the Xu Family, Wei Family, and Leng Family all chose to support you this time. They might not have actively helped, but at least they made their stance clear. My dad worries that you might resent them, and target the Zuo Family in return. So he hurriedly sent me, his precious daughter, to appease you to prevent any potential harm. Should I be happy or sad about this?"

Lin Chen said with a casual laugh, "I’m not that petty. I have no grudge against the Zuo Family, so why would I target them? Your dad is worrying over nothing."

Zuo Yingying stared intensely at Lin Chen’s face in admiration, as if looking at a piece of artwork.

"What are you doing? Haven’t you seen something like this before?"

Zuo Yingying chuckled, "I’m just admiring a handsome guy. I just feel a little bit disappointed that I didn’t witness you show off your power in person. My brother told me about it — it was so awesome of you to make an Innate Grandmaster kneel and apologize!"

Lin Chen laughed, "I just saw through her illness and took advantage of it. If she hadn’t been sick, and I had acted this arrogantly, I would probably have been killed on the spot."

Zuo Yingying curiously asked, "Is there a huge difference in power between a Grandmaster and an Innate Grandmaster?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Definitely. Zhang Yun was held back by her physical condition, so she couldn’t fight with her full strength. Even so, her casual attacks were enough to make me spit blood. If she had been healthy and fought at her full capacity, I wouldn’t have been able to hold off even one of her attacks."

Zuo Yingying sighed, "It seems that the difference in power between realm levels is incomparable indeed. No wonder the Zhu Family can walk around Linhai unchallenged with Zhu Zi’an, and the Shenyun Sect is so arrogant because they have more than one Innate Grandmaster."

Lin Chen laughed, "Well, now that the Zhu Family has lost their Grandmaster, the other families in Linhai don’t have to remain under their control."

Zuo Yingying nodded, "That indeed is good news for other Linhai families, and they all have you to thank for it."

Lin Chen replied with a carefree smile, "I only dealt with Zhu Zi’an because I wanted to. It has nothing to do with anyone else, and whether they’re grateful doesn’t matter."

The car arrived at the Chu Family Villa. After Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue moved back in, they left the hotel for good.

After Chu Jiaxue left, Lin Chen lived here alone. But with no one at home, he didn’t bother to cook, only going to sleep and eating out when needed.

"So, have you and Jiaxue been sleeping separately since you moved back here?"

Lin Chen glanced at Zuo Yingying, "Aren’t you quite the gossip?"

Zuo Yingying smiled, "I’m just curious, and I care about you too. And to be honest, I’ve been curious about how things will turn out between you, Jiaxue, and Xiaoxi."

Lin Chen laughed, "Well, Jiaxue and I haven’t crossed the line."

Zuo Yingying smiled, "That much is obvious. If you guys had slept together, there wouldn’t be such a complicated situation now."

Just as Lin Chen was about to respond, his mobile phone rang suddenly.

It was Bat.

He pointed to his phone for Zuo Yingying and then walked to the side with the phone, answering the call.

"What’s up?"

Bat chuckled, "Brother Jun, indeed Chu Tianyu is in the Liu Family. Brother Jun, care to guess what Chu Tianyu did to be accepted by the Liu Family?"

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was there!

Lin Chen wasn’t afraid of Chu Tianyu relying on a powerful family, but he was worried that Chu Tianyu would hide and secretly retaliate against his loved ones.

"What did he do? Swear loyalty to his new parents?"

Bat laughed, "Not by swearing loyalty, but by actually gaining new parents."

Lin Chen inquired with confusion, "What happened?"

Bat was ecstatic, "This kid, in order to be accepted by the Liu Family, married the Liu Family’s daughter, Miss Liu Yanyan. Do you know? Liu Yanyan weighs at least 400 pounds!"
