Chapter 727 – House Chen's Crisis
"Yin, what do you say we buy a retail house? If the district's big, we can open a barbeque shop. That'll be enough for us to eat and drink, right? "Mrs. Tang asked.
"That's fine. You and dad don't have anything to do anyways, we might as well start a business." Tang Yin nodded.
"Three million, that's a hundred thousand in interest a year. What are you going to do to earn that?" Jucheng was meticulous in his calculations, thinking that it'd be safer to keep the money in the bank.
"That's true …" Mrs. Tang hesitated as well, not knowing what to do. "Yin, your dad's right. If we keep the money in the bank, we'll get a lot of interest a year too!"
"That … I don't really understand. Maybe we should ask Lin Yi tomorrow? Let's see what he says. "Tang Yin had never seen so much money before. She didn't know how to manage money, and she didn't dare suggest anything. She'd ask Lin Yi tomorrow.
The night passed peacefully, and he was woken up by Lingshan's call the next morning. He looked at the time on his phone- it was only half past five, pissing him off- he'd been training in the jade, and now he was interrupted like this.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you calling so early in the morning? "Lin Yi roared into the phone.
"I … …" Lingshan felt wronged. It was already half past five, and it wasn't early anymore. It was important for practitioners to wake up early to train, and Lingshan had always been like this for twenty years. "Don't you need to wake up early to train?"
"Train my ass." Lin Yi was a little troubled. "Don't compare yourself to others. I've always been a person who wakes up naturally."
"Ugh … You're interested in my sister?" Lingshan blinked.
"I've never even seen her, what's there to be interested in?" Lin Yi was speechless at Lingshan's logic. "Do you have something to do?"
"Yeah, didn't you promise me to go to the hospital to see Liu Bojia?" Lingshan said carefully. "I'm ready …"
"Then wait for me at the hospital." Lin Yi yawned, remembering what Lingshan said yesterday. "I'll be there in a bit."
"Okay, you didn't have breakfast, right? Can you let Little Silly Girl help you with something? " Lingshan was afraid that Lin Yi wouldn't try his best, and even if he could cure her, he'd find it troublesome to lie to her and say that he couldn't cure her. So, Lingshan was trying her best to please Lin Yi.
"Then do something," Lin Yi said before hanging up. Lin Yi was already used to Lingshan's attentiveness.
After getting up, Lin Yi found something in the kitchen and made a pot of lean meat porridge for Mengyao and Yushu. He set the timer and left the house.
Lin Yi agreed to buy a house with Tang Yun's family today, so he had to go to the hospital to deal with Liu Bojia as soon as possible. He didn't have time to wait for Congee to eat breakfast at home.
He drove the van to the Songshan's First People's Hospital, and Lin Yi called Lingshan.
"You're here?" Lingshan was pleasantly surprised. She didn't think that Lin Yi would come so soon. It seemed that Lin Yi was quite considerate of her, not letting her lose face in front of Yutian!
Yutian came to the hospital early this morning. He didn't sleep well the whole night. The fact that Lingshan had an admirer made him very disappointed. He knew that he basically had no hope, and so he wanted to see how strong the man she liked was. Of course, he still had the right to challenge him! If he could surpass him one day!
"I'm here, in the parking lot of the hospital. Where are you?" Lin Yi asked.
"I'm at the third ward, the ICU on the top floor, room 2119," Lingshan said.
"Okay, I'll go now," Lin Yi got off the car and walked to the third ward.
Yutian, who was beside Lingshan, heard that the man she was after was coming, and he couldn't help but get nervous, "Lingshan, he's here?"
"Almost there," Lingshan nodded. She didn't like Yutian's nervousness. Why couldn't he be a little more manly? Even if she was stronger than him, there was no need to be this nervous, was there?
Yutian nodded. He felt like a failure, pursuing Lingshan for so many years, and it all ended in failure.
But he chose the wrong direction from the start. He walked the path of a spoiled young master, and Lingshan didn't like him at all. When he wanted to use his strength to surpass Lingshan, he realized that he started too late. If it wasn't for the guidance of a famous teacher, he wouldn't even be able to break through Golden class in this lifetime.
Yutian was disappointed, but he didn't regret it. If it wasn't for Lingshan's words, he wouldn't have gotten so excited, and he wouldn't have chosen this path! Although he wasn't the strongest out of all the noble houses, early phase Golden class wasn't weak! At least his grandpa wasn't disappointed in him!
He was the only male in the third generation of House Chen, and Yushu couldn't possibly practice martial arts. If he didn't have strength, House Chen would probably be removed from the four noble houses by House Yu in a few years!
So Yutian's sense of danger was quite strong. He was still young, and he didn't have to think so much when he was a spoiled young master, but now he had to! Other than the old man who used to be a famous person, there wasn't anyone in the third generation of House Chen who could stand firm!
When the old master was young, he practiced external techniques. The characteristics of external techniques were different from internal techniques. The older one was, the purer their internal energy would be. However, when an external technique was old, if one's body wasn't good, they would become weaker and weaker!
Old Chen's body wasn't too good now, and although he was at his peak at the middle phase of Mystic class, who knew how much strength he had left? Wu Gong Gao from House Wu had been jumping up and down these years, looking like he wanted to challenge Old Chen, but in reality, he just wanted to see how strong House Chen was! He wanted to see how much strength House Chen had left!
After this period of time, it was time for some of the noble houses to be replaced! House Wu, naturally, wanted to get rid of House Chen, and then support a family that was on good terms with them. Didn't House Kang rely on House Wu recently? House Wu probably had this plan as well.
So although House Chen looked good on the surface, as one of the five small noble houses and the four big houses, their position was actually in danger.
Chen Yutian knew this very well, and so did Elder Chen!
This was also why Old Chen supported Yutian's courtship with Lingshan. Once the Song and Chen families were united through marriage, then those people who were after House Chen wouldn't be as arrogant as they were now!
