Chapter 466: Storytelling

~7 min read 1,365 words

As the old man's words fell, he raised his right hand and pointed a finger at Lin Yang.

A bolt of lightning shot straight for Lin Yang's shoulder.

But when it reached three inches before Lin Yang, it vanished outright.

The old man instantly narrowed his eyes, looking at Lin Yang.

"No wonder you dare to oppose me; it turns out you have some skill."

As his words fell, Lin Yang appeared before him.

Seeing Lin Yang appear before him, the old man was about to retreat.

But before he could take a step back, Lin Yang's hand was already on his chest.

Then, he exerted a slight force.

A surge of power shook the old man, sending him stumbling back several steps.

A trickle of blood also appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You may go now."

Lin Yang withdrew his hand and said lightly.

The old man wiped the blood from his mouth and stared at Lin Yang.

His eyes were filled with shock.

"Such a youngster, yet he could easily injure me."

"If he had intended to kill me just now, I would already be a corpse."

Thinking this, a bead of cold sweat trickled down his forehead.

He stared at Lin Yang for a long while, then finally sighed.

"Truly, the younger generation is formidable; let's go."

Seeing Lin Yang enter the house, they closed the door.

Huo Yanfei, who goes by the alias Du Yanfei, excitedly ran up to him.

She looked at Lin Yang with an adoring expression.

"Wow, I didn't expect you to be this strong!"

"That old man is considered a formidable figure in our household."

Lin Yang gave a faint smile and said to her.

"Get some rest early."

Upon hearing that, Huo Yanfei gave a sly smile, looked at Lin Yang, and said.

"I can't sleep; I want to hear your story."

"My story?"

Lin Yang looked at Huo Yanfei doubtfully and said.

"What story could I have?"

"Tch, you couldn't be this strong at such a young age without having some story."

"As far as I know, among the younger generation in Xianggang, probably no one is your match."

"Really? So I'm that strong?"

Lin Yang gave a faint smile and did not continue the conversation.

Upon hearing Lin Yang not respond, Huo Yanfei grabbed his hand and said.

"Come on, just tell me a story; look at my adoring face—how could you bear not to tell me a story?"

"I could not bear it."

Lin Yang walked to the bedside, gazing at the pouring rain outside.

"Go to sleep."

Seeing Lin Yang gazing out the window with a deep expression, Huo Yanfei thought of something.

She sighed and said.

"Alas, with such heavy rain outside, I wonder which young lady is weeping."

Lin Yang glanced at her and said.

"Your metaphor is really quite peculiar."

Seeing Lin Yang finish speaking and then ignore her, Huo Yanfei snorted.

She lay sprawled on the bed, pouting her little lips, and said.

"I thought you were a stalwart man who wouldn't keep things bottled up, but you're just like my sister."

"You hide everything in your heart, not even daring to see the man you like."

Having said that, still dissatisfied, she thumped the bed twice.

Upon hearing that, Lin Yang sat on the sofa and asked with a chuckle.

"Because your sister is an adult now."

"So what if she's an adult? If she's unhappy, she should speak up; if she likes someone, she should go see him."

"Moreover, she's pregnant with that man's child."

Lin Yang saw Huo Yanfei sit up, look at him, and speak with a hint of anger.

His expression turned strange.

"You said you were an illegitimate child, and you don't get along with your father's wife."

"This sister of yours..."

Huo Yanfei's pretty face flushed slightly, and she spoke with insufficient confidence.

Is it not okay that I have a good relationship with my sister?

She met an irresponsible jerk; can't I speak up for her?

Lin Yang said: "Since your sister is already pregnant, why don't you go find that man?"

Because she doesn't dare; my sister is going to marry into a big family.

If you go look for that man, you'll just be harming him.

As she spoke, her mood gradually sank.

She said: "My sister also said she would go to those small clinics to abort the child."

I'm really afraid she'll encounter those black-heart clinics, ending up with both her and the child dead.

Then, she raised her head and looked at Lin Yang, asking.

Hey, if you were that man, what would you do?

Me?

Lin Yang instantly thought of Huo Shui Xian.

If she really is carrying my child...

He exhaled a puff of turbid air, not knowing whether he was speaking to himself or to Huo Yan Fei.

Even if the Jiang Clan has tens of thousands, I will go alone.

Huo Yan Fei, hearing that, looked at Lin Yang.

Then she puffed out a laugh and said.

How childish, alright, Miss is going to sleep.

Lin Yang hesitated for a moment, then said.

You... you should pay attention to your sleeping posture.

Exposed.

Huo Yan Fei stared for a moment, then lowered her head to look.

Ah! Hooligan!

Then, she pulled the blanket over herself, wrapping up tightly.

The next day, Huo Yan Fei was still sound asleep when a sudden urgent doorbell rang.

The awakened Huo Yan Fei cursed in dissatisfaction.

Who is it? Disturbing this young lady's sleep!

Lin Yang, who had already gotten up, went to open the door.

Standing at the door was none other than the flustered Chu Guo Zhong.

Seeing Chu Guo Zhong's flustered appearance, Lin Yang asked in surprise.

Boss Chu, what happened?

Mr. Lin, something happened at the villa; could you go check?

Lin Yang, hearing that, nodded and said.

Alright, I'll go with you.

Seeing Lin Yang agree, Chu Guo Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.

He gave an embarrassed smile and said to Lin Yang.

I'm a bit thirsty; may I come in for a drink of water?

Lin Yang shook his head and said: "There's a lady inside; it's not convenient."

Upon hearing that, Chu Guo Zhong gave a somewhat ambiguous look toward Lin Yang.

He thought, this is also normal.

Young people, being capable, having those needs is also normal.

If Chu Guo Zhong went in, he would surely recognize Huo Yan Fei right away.

At that time, Lin Yang would know that Huo Shui Xian was carrying his flesh and blood.

Then, he would certainly appear at the Huo Family immediately.

But fate is unpredictable; nothing will develop as ideally hoped.

He followed Chu Guo Zhong to the villa; the sky was still drizzling.

Upon nearing the villa, Lin Yang felt a strong chill.

This chill was not due to the weather's cold.

Rather, it felt like the yin cold of a graveyard.

Even Lin Yang felt the chill, let alone Chu Guo Zhong.

At this moment, Chu Guo Zhong was so cold his face turned a few shades paler.

He asked: "Mr. Lin, my brother disappeared at the villa last night."

Master Lan said there are demons in my storeroom.

He can't handle it alone.

Lin Yang, hearing that, couldn't help but narrow his eyes and ask.

Was it Master Lan who sent you to find me?

He just mentioned it, and I immediately thought of you.

Lin Yang stood outside the villa, looking at Master Lan standing in the living room with palms together.

He thought for a moment, then turned to Chu Guo Zhong and said.

Go buy me ten jade pendants.

"These jade pendants, all are top-grade old jade."

"But, there are some in the villa."

Lin Yang shook his head and said: "The ones in the villa cannot be used; listen to me."

Seeing Lin Yang's serious expression, Chu Guozhong also didn't waste words, turned and left.

After Chu Guozhong left, Lin Yang then stepped into the villa.

As Lin Yang just stepped into the villa, the villa's door automatically closed.

Master Lan also opened his eyes and looked at him.
