Chapter 448: Chapter 468: I’m Like a Thief _1

"Maternal Grandpa, maternal Grandma..."

"Oh, come in quickly."

With the danger in the Wang Family resolved and the strength of four Innate Great Grandmasters, Lin Chen is no longer in danger. He has regained his freedom in life and brought Gu Yuexi back to the Feng Family.

As Feng Yazhen had said, when Lin Chen returned, everyone from his grandparents to his uncles and aunt, and cousins all warmly welcomed him. Lin Chen had faced danger, and his grandfather had directly risked his life to protect him.

When Grandpa Feng realized that his ability was limited and couldn’t protect Lin Chen, he changed his tactics by betting with his life, hoping to draw the Feng family’s ancestor into the conflict and relieve Lin Chen’s pressure. Eldest uncle did everything possible to help track down members of the Wang Family and provide information support.

They truly treated Lin Chen as family and protected him, so now Lin Chen had opened his heart to them.

Feng Tangtang ran over, hugged Gu Yuexi’s arm, and smiled, "Sister Xiaoxi!"

Eldest uncle Feng Shujie patted Lin Chen’s shoulder and laughed, "You little rascal, you fooled us pretty well!"

As Lin Chen was about to speak, the eldest uncle laughed again, "My brother-in-law was so outstanding back then, I didn’t expect my nephew to outshine him. A Great Grandmaster at the age of twenty-seven, the sky’s the limit!"

Gu Yuexi received a warm welcome from the Feng family. This made Gu Yuexi somewhat overwhelmed, even fearful. After all, strictly speaking, Chu Jiaxue is now Grandpa Feng Yuanhua’s granddaughter-in-law.

Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue have a marriage certificate!

This made Gu Yuexi feel guilty, as if she had stolen something very important from her sister.

Grandpa Feng Yuanhua asked, "Lin Chen, what are your plans now?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Closed Door Cultivation. I got three Dragon and Tiger Pills from the Wang family. I’ll spend some time digesting and absorbing them to enhance my strength!"

Strictly speaking, these three Dragon and Tiger Pills do not belong solely to Lin Chen. But since Zhang Yun only traded for more treatments, there was no need to consider her. His aunt, being an Innate Grandmaster, didn’t need the Dragon and Tiger Pill, and her love for Lin Chen made her not only refuse his proposal to split the pills, but she even dismissed the merits of the two Wang family elders.

"They dealt with Wang Lurong because I caused trouble for the Wang family. In order to root out the threat, they had no choice but to take action. It has nothing to do with you, so you don’t need to remember their favors, nor do you need to share the Dragon and Tiger Pills with them, as they don’t need them!"

Feng Yuanhua nodded, "Good! Although you received the help of four Innate Great Grandmasters this time and finally killed Wang Lurong, the help from others is ultimately an external force that is uncontrollable. It’s better to rely on oneself than to rely on others. Only your own strength is the most reliable!"

Lin Chen nodded, but in his heart, he wondered if his grandfather said this because he had been stimulated before.

He asked the Feng family ancestor for help to protect his grandson, but the ancestor refused to help as Lin Chen didn’t carry the Feng surname. Feng Yuanhua realized that his strength was not enough to protect Lin Chen, in the end, he had to use his own life as a stake to draw attention.

This feeling of powerlessness might have prompted Feng Yuanhua to say these words.

Since Lin Chen already had a house in Xijing, his grandparents did not ask him to stay in their house this time as they understood that the two young people needed their own world.

Feng Yazhen smiled and said, "I won’t disturb your ’world of two’ today. I’ll come to find you tomorrow and take you to another place for cultivation."

Lin Chen did not refuse his aunt’s kindness and readily agreed, "Alright!"

Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi left the Feng family. Gu Yuexi looked at the emerald green jade bracelet on her wrist and said, "Brother, I feel a little guilty about accepting this jade bracelet."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "You don’t need to feel guilty. It’s a gift from the elders."

Gu Yuexi whispered, "I feel that all the treatment and enjoyment I received today should have belonged to my sister. I feel like a thief who sneaked in while the owner was away, pretending to be the owner and stealing the things that belonged to her."

Lin Chen chuckled, "Are you my girlfriend?"

Gu Yuexi nodded without hesitation, "Of course."

Lin Chen nodded with a smile, "Then that’s the end of it. You introduced yourself to them as my girlfriend, and they treat you well. There’s no problem."

Without waiting for Gu Yuexi to speak, Lin Chen continued with a smile, "Even if your sister comes back now, and in front of my family, if I introduce you again, I’ll still introduce you as my girlfriend. Even if they think there’s a problem, they’ll blame it on my fickle heart, not on your full-hearted devotion."

Gu Yuexi understood what Lin Chen meant, and warmth filled her heart.

He placed the responsibility for this chaotic relationship on himself, blaming it on his fickle heart.

In one sentence, Chu Jiaxue was not wrong, Gu Yuexi was not wrong, and if someone had to be wrong, then it was Lin Chen. Lin Chen was willing to take all the responsibility!

This is the responsibility that a man must have!
