Chapter 1169: Little Angel and Psycho 11

~6 min read 1,121 words

Luo Rui'an brought Jin Zhiyan back to the old residence in the front courtyard of the Jin Family. When they landed, Jin Zhiyan was still convulsing; they discovered the servants exclaimed in surprise and immediately called for people to help the Young Master.

Jin Xiangming was called out, seeing this scene he was both angry and astonished, and muttered a curse that Jin Chen was just a lunatic.

In that case, every servant of the Jin Family had already grown accustomed to hearing it; each day they had to listen to the family head scold a few sentences, and then when Second Master Jin arrived, they would put on a show of brotherly camaraderie.

Luo Rui'an followed him into the room, looking at Jin Zhiyan being treated by the family doctor, the depths of his eyes filled with deep puzzlement.

Why would a human named Jin Chen possess the power to resist angelic divine power?

Why would Xi Er appear in that place?

Luo Rui'an racked his brain, feeling a hint of apprehension; although Jin Chen was disabled, he appeared to have power and influence, plus strange abilities.

If Xi Er attached himself to Jin Chen and gained a foothold on Diqiu, later trying to drag him to take the blame would become difficult.

Had I known, during the transfer I should have broken Xi Er's legs so he couldn't go anywhere.

Under the family doctor's care, Jin Zhiyan gradually regained consciousness, the wound on his arm was also bandaged, but the psychological trauma left in his heart remained severe.

The previous time… the previous time that left a Psychological Shadow was when he was still underage, sneaking into Jin Chen's residence.

That was Jin Zhiyan's first time seeing firearms and torture devices, and also… the people who had poisoned the medicine sent to give Jin Chen, whose hands had been chopped off…

Who would have thought that after several years, he still couldn't dispel the fear; Jin Chen's residence was more terrifying than hell!

"Dad! Dad! I will never go to the rear courtyard residence again!"

Jin Zhiyan was truly terrified; there was no need to test Jin Chen's recovery— that person was no longer a normal human, but a demon!

"Good, good, good, lie down and rest."

Jin Xiangming sighed helplessly; seeing Jin Zhiyan so distressed, he also advised: "Rest assured, as long as our plan succeeds, all of Jin Chen's property will belong to you in the future."

Upon hearing this, Jin Zhiyan's expression improved a little; after Jin Xiangming left, he took Luo Rui'an's hand to thank him for his rescue.

Luo Rui'an's cheek was kissed, he turned to look at Jin Zhiyan, making himself overlook all the weakness he had just seen, "Why does your uncle have the power to resist angels?"

Jin Chen indicated he wasn't sure, and then recalled the blue-haired youth he had seen when leaving, "Could it be because of that person who looks a bit like you?"

As he said that, Luo Rui'an hissed, suddenly having an epiphany.

"Exactly, perhaps because Xi Er still retained some angelic power, protecting him from attack."

Thinking this, Luo Rui'an's apprehension lessened considerably, his eyes turning fierce and slightly narrowed.

"The Energy Heart Stone is gone, yet you still dare to overdraw your life to protect humans—idiot, truly an idiot."

Jin Zhiyan still hadn't forgotten that breathtaking glance just now, curiously asking, "Is that person called Xi Er? Why does he look so much like you?"

"Huh, how could twins not look alike?" Luo Rui'an rolled his eyes, "He's my brother, just an ugly good-for-nothing."

Jin Zhiyan frowned in doubt, recalling that person's appearance, which really had nothing to do with ugliness.

But Luo Rui'an was still angry; Jin Zhiyan could still tell what was more important, so he immediately continued along his line of thought.

Luo Rui'an was placated into having no temper; he stroked Jin Zhiyan's face, "Rest assured, today Jin Chen harmed you like this—I will definitely help you get revenge."

"But he's just a cripple; without Xi Er's useless help, killing him won't be easy at all."

Since that day, the Jin Family has withdrawn much of its covert surveillance of Jin Chen, but still left many eyes watching him, unaware that what they could see were only the weaknesses Jin Chen deliberately revealed.

After several more days, on the eve of the banquet.

It also happened to be the day Jin Chen needed to go to a private hospital for a check-up.

Xi Er grew increasingly clingy to Jin Chen; even a brief moment out of sight made him uneasy, let alone needing to be apart for a morning.

Early in the morning, upon hearing the news, he sat on Jin Chen's leg and refused to get up, silently acting coquettish; he stubbornly wore Jin Chen down until he had no temper, and could only agree to take him along.

Xi Er hadn't forgotten the chaotic crowd and strange gazes he saw when he first arrived on Diqiu before losing consciousness; curious yet fearful about the outside world, he kept looking out the window while in the car.

Because of today's affairs, Jin Chen didn't let him follow into the hospital, instead having three bodyguards take Xi Er to the nearby shopping mall to stroll.

After repeatedly promising they would only be apart for two hours and would send someone to pick him up, Xi Er reluctantly agreed, watching the car drive away.

Under the bodyguards' guidance, Xi Er strolled around the shopping mall with curiosity; whenever he showed a liking for something, the bodyguards would buy it all.

Xi Er's appearance and hairstyle were unique throughout the shopping mall, thus attracting many gazes, but without malice, he gradually relaxed as well.

When they reached the third floor, Xi Er saw a very large exhibition hall with various animals.

He was instantly drawn to the peacock inside, unconsciously walking toward it.

The white peacock happened to spread its tail feathers just as he arrived, and under the ceiling lights it displayed a dazzling flow of light, very beautiful.

Xi Er heard visitors discussing that this white peacock was the most beautiful here, and also gained a new understanding of the aesthetic sense of Diqiu's people.

Completely unlike Tian Shi Xing, they appreciate pure beauty, each person having a different aesthetic, and they do not bully unattractive creatures.

Xi Er's eyes sparkled as he crouched to observe the peacock, suddenly hearing a voice from nearby.

"Do you also like this peacock very much?"

Xi Er turned to look at him; it was a stranger in a white suit.

The three bodyguards lurking in the dark immediately became alert, watching the stranger.
