Chapter 781: We Are Still Friends
"You have saved Liu Jingye several times, so you do not owe him anything." Chen Yu glanced at Liu Lianxin and said, "So I feel there is no need for you to give your everything for them."
"It is I who owe them, for the grace of raising me." Liu Lianxin sighed slightly and said, "Chen Yu, you do not understand."
"How do I not understand?" Chen Yu smiled: "I am the same as you, also an abandoned person. My foster father was all alone, yet he raised me, but he would never let me give anything for him."
"The reason the Liu Family raised you back then must have been due to the guidance of an expert who knew long ago that you possessed the Green Lotus Jade Bone Body." Chen Yu said: "They were just using you."
"How could I not know they were using me?" Liu Lianxin sighed slightly, then she raised her head to look at Chen Yu: "Last time you said that we would be enemies in the future, is that true?"
"Just consider it... a moment of angry words." Chen Yu gave a bitter smile.
"Do you know? Your words last time made me hurt here." Liu Lianxin pointed to her own chest: "From now on, we must have an agreement between us: no matter what happens, we are friends."
"Fine, we are friends from now on." Chen Yu nodded slightly.
"Regardless, the Liu Family are my benefactors, so it is only right that I give something for them. Where is Yu Sichen? Let us go see her," Liu Lianxin said.
"Alright." Chen Yu smiled and left together with Liu Lianxin.
At Lu Ruxue's home, Liu Lianxin used the Green Lotus Dharma Seal to completely seal the Ancestral Ghost in her consciousness, and she returned to normal.
Some of the Ancestral Ghost's power remained in Yu Sichen's body, but with the Ancestral Ghost sealed, the original power could only manifest one-third of its strength, though this was enough for self-protection.
Chen Yu felt a bit of emotion; he did not know if Yu Sichen could be considered lucky in misfortune this time.
"Si Chen, although the Ancestral Ghost occupying your consciousness has been sealed, she is, after all, a type of heresy belonging to this world." Liu Lianxin put away the Green Lotus in her hand: "Therefore, for the Green Lotus Dharma Seal, it is best to go to Jizhao Temple to meditate and listen to Buddhist scriptures for forty-nine days to solidify the seal."
"I... must I go?" Yu Sichen's eyes had already regained their spirit, but facing this matter, she was still somewhat reluctant.
She was unwilling to leave Chen Yu, and she was also unwilling to leave Lu Ruxue.
"You must go; this is for your own good," Liu Lianxin said.
"Jizhao Temple is not far from here, and it is only forty-nine days, less than two months." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Going there to listen to the evening drums and morning bells and feeling the profoundness of Buddhism is also good; just treat it as relaxing."
Chen Yu's words were still quite effective. Hearing Chen Yu say this, Yu Sichen no longer hesitated, and she nodded: "Alright, then I will trouble Miss Liu."
"Your situation started because of my older brother, and he has also suffered retribution. I hope you will not hold a grudge against him. Let us go now," Liu Lianxin said with a faint smile.
The two of them stood up immediately and went to Jizhao Nunnery. After Chen Yu saw them off, he returned to the city.
Just on the way back, Gelin, who had been in the shadows, appeared. The dagger in his hand was stained with blood.
"What happened?" Chen Yu looked at Gelin in surprise.
Gelin had just been transferred from Fengling to Shengjing. Chen Yu lacked manpower here, so he had brought over thirty core members of the Swift Shadows.
"Boss, a few people have been scouting for information about you." Gelin put away the bloody dagger in his hand: "I have been watching them for a long time; today I found an opportunity to wipe them out."
"Where are they?" Chen Yu's heart stirred. Actually, he knew someone had been following him, but the other party did not seem to want to attack him, so he had not paid attention until Gelin behind him could no longer endure it and took action directly.
"In the woods behind," Gelin said.
Chen Yu followed Gelin to the woods behind. He saw two corpses lying there. These two fellows had bulging waists and seemed to be carrying guns.
"I saw they were carrying guns and felt they were a threat to you, so I took action to resolve it," Gelin explained.
"Actually, there was no need. I knew they were following me; I was just curious what they wanted to do." Chen Yu smiled, took out Corpse Dissolving Powder, and sprinkled it on the two of them. The two of them instantly vanished into thin air.
"Sorry, Boss, I acted on my own initiative." Gelin bowed to Chen Yu with some apology.
"It's fine. Looking at these two, their strength was average, but they were good at tracking. Now someone is suspicious of my identity." Chen Yu smiled: "In Shengjing, there are only a few people interested in my identity. You just send people to watch them, especially He Zhengye; pay more attention to him."
"Yes." Gelin bowed slightly and turned to leave.
"Brother Chen, I have already helped you make the appointment with the person you wanted to see today. Call that Miss Shen, and let's all sit down together and clear this matter up." Just as he arrived in Shengjing, Huang Shaoyu's call came through.
"Alright, send the location, we will be there immediately," Chen Yu said.
Huang Shaoyu sent the location, and Chen Yu drove over.
The female artist Shen Wen, whom he met yesterday at the club where Ye Qinglong took him, had been blacklisted because she offended the big boss of the company, and Chen Yu had promised to help her resolve these matters.
At 8:30 in the evening, Chen Yu took Shen Wen to the reserved private room.
Huang Shaoyu had overslept and had not arrived yet. In the private room, two men and one woman were already waiting.
The woman was Shen Wen's former manager, Li Tong, a young woman in her thirties who looked somewhat charming.
The two men were Wu Bo, the young master of Shen Wen's former company, and the other was a second-generation official named Wang Weicai. His father was the person in charge of the Film and Television Bureau, and he was also a major shareholder of Tianyu Entertainment, the company where Shen Wen worked.
In fact, the waters in a place like Shengjing are deep, and all kinds of forces are mixed together. If someone without a background wants to come here and make a name for themselves, they probably have to pay a great price.
For example, Tianyu. The company is quite famous in Shengjing. If they want to make a name for themselves in the film and television industry, they naturally cannot do without the support of people in official positions.
And the company's major shareholder, Wang Weicai, has a father who is one of the leading figures in the film and television circle. With him as a shareholder, many things for Tianyu are settled logically and smoothly.
Moreover, it is too easy for their Tianyu to blacklist someone. For example, Shen Wen: she could not endure the insults of the company boss, so the company blacklisted her, and the final result for her was that no one dared to ask her for roles anymore.
So in the end, she had to go through a good friend to squeeze into the Bliss Palace and lower her status to beg those rich second-generation young masters to come out and settle this matter for her.
Seeing Shen Wen enter, Li Tong stood up hurriedly and said, "Wenwen, you're here."
