Chapter 308 Looking Down On Me?
A figure slowly landed on the rooftop.
It was extremely strange. There was no afterimage at all, as if this person had transformed from the wind. At this moment, he stood on the rooftop and looked into the distance with a cold smile.
“I didn’t come out in vain. Interesting, very interesting.” The figure muttered to himself in the language of the bandits. Then, a gust of wind blew again and brought the person away. The entire rooftop acted as if nothing had happened.
This situation made the youths widen their eyes and rub them hard.
“Did you see someone standing by the rooftop just now?”
“Did you see them too? Where is that person now? Did they jump down?”
Everyone hurriedly lay on the edge of the rooftop and looked down, but there was no one. This person was like a ghost. He was too terrifying and incomparably strange.
Even for people like them, who did not wear protective gear while playing with skateboards on the rooftop, they could not help but tremble in their hearts. Their legs even began to turn soft.
They had really seen a ghost during the day. A few days later, Lin Tianyang’s lineage set off for Changyang. Chen Yun was the same. He followed Uncle Lin and Wan’er to Changyang.
However, the two of them were not in the same car. Along the way, Chen Yun looked at the surrounding scenery and a smile appeared on his face.
Although Changyang was near Qingfeng City, the scenery along the way was very different. Compared to Qingfeng City, this place was more like a high-tech district. It was no wonder Lin Yuhan seemed like he was lower than others when he spoke yesterday. It was like comparing the richest man in Beijing and the richest man in a remote county. The two were naturally worlds apart.
Even though the difference between him and the Lin family was not so obvious.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs of Changyang City. In the embrace of Shuanglong Creek was the Lin family’s manor.
The Lin family’s manor was beside a mountain and a river. There were two streams flowing down the mountain on both sides. It was called the Twin Dragon Creek. The place where the two dragons hugged each other was also a place where spiritual energy was prevalent. Not only did this place belong to the Lin family, but even the large area around here was the Lin family’s territory. There were small bridges and flowing water. Coupled with the winding corridors, it had the flavor of the Jiangnan Waterside Pavilion.
Chen Yun looked at the scene in front of him and could not help but nod. This Lin family was indeed worthy of being a large family that had been around for nearly 200 years. Just the location of this land was quite particular. After all, before building a house, such a large family would definitely find a feng shui master to choose the location.
However, such a scene could only interest Chen Yun slightly. After all, the Zheng family’s territory back then was much larger than this. Lin Wan’er, who was beside him, looked at Chen Yun’s disinterested expression and was a little puzzled. After all, the first time she came, she had been shocked by the scene in front of her for a long time.
It was as if Granny Liu had entered the Grand View Garden in “Dream of the Red Chamber”.
Just as the two of them were stunned, a cold voice sounded from not far away. “Wan’er, why didn’t you tell me that you were here so that I could come out and pick you up?” Chen Yun looked in front of him and saw a man and a woman walking over. It was rare for them to wear suits, and their eyes were filled with pride. He knew the girl beside the man. She was Lin Lian’s daughter and Wan’er’s cousin, Wang Yi.
Wang Yi naturally heard her mother’s words and knew that there was a figure like Chen Yun, so she was quite dissatisfied.
At this moment, Wang Yi looked at Chen Yun and her eyes darkened. “Wan’er, why is he here?”
“Chen Yun came here with me to celebrate the family head’s birthday.”
Hm?
“Wan’er, don’t tell me you think that just anyone from the Lin family can come. This person has nothing to do with the Lin family. He’s not an invited high-ranking official or noble. How can you ask him to celebrate the family head’s birthday? Does he have the right?” Wang Yi sneered. Even the young man beside her, Lin Jiang, looked at Lin Wan’er and waited for her explanation.
“He’s my boyfriend. He’s qualified enough, right?!” Lin Wan’er was naturally not angry and explained this to them. For a moment, their eyes narrowed.
Wang Yi looked at Lin Wan’er with a shocked expression. Although she knew that Wan’er had a close relationship with this kid, she did not expect them to confirm their relationship and be so bold as to bring this person here.
Even Lin Jiang, who was at the side, was incomparably shocked. His expression suddenly darkened. He looked at Chen Yun in front of him, then at Lin Wan’er. Then, he sneered and thought to himself, “Good job, Lin Wan’er. Now, the old master is nurturing you as a direct descendant. I didn’t expect you to not tell the old master about such a big matter.
Moreover, the Wang family is in the hall now. You’ve finally given me a chance to take you down.”
As Lin Jiang thought about this, he was secretly delighted. Yesterday, he heard some news. The Wang family’s old master had come this time for two things. One was to celebrate his birthday, and the other was to propose a marriage for the Wang family’s young master.
Although it was said to be a marriage proposal, anyone with discerning eyes could tell that they were using their relationship by marriage to tie the Lin family and the Wang family to the same battlefront. Although this marriage was a bond, it could allow both sides to achieve a reassuring goal. It could also make it reasonable for strong forces to join forces. How could the old man not understand such a simple logic? Therefore, the two families had already reached an agreement yesterday. Among the girls in the Lin family, Lin Wan’er was the only one who was at the right age. The other party must have come for her, but they did not expect her to act first and report later. She had brought her boyfriend back first. Now, he wanted to see if she could live a good life after slapping the old man’s face like this. Could she still climb above them, the direct descendents?!
As he thought about it, he sneered.
Lin Jiang looked at Lin Wan’er and chuckled. “Since this is your boyfriend, it’s natural for him to come and pay his respects to the old master. However, the old master is currently entertaining esteemed guests in the living room. Perhaps you won’t be able to say much even if you go over now.”
Hm?
Lin Wan’er looked at Lin Jiang. To be honest, she did not have a good impression of the direct descendants of the Lin family. After all, they had been in the main family since they were young. Lin Wan’er and the others were collateral relatives, so they were naturally looked down on. Later on, after their lineage rose, they were wary of her everywhere and did not treat her as a family member at all. Hearing Lin Jiang’s words, she looked at Chen Yun. “In that case, I’ll bring you here to take a look first.”
“Alright.” Chen Yun nodded and led Lin Wan’er to the other side.
At this moment, in the hall of the Lin family’s manor.
This hundred-year-old living room of the Lin family manor was decorated with green bricks and green tiles. It was ancient and witnessed the history and inheritance of the Lin family.
In the hall, Lin Tianyang and the others had just entered. They looked at the main seat and saw an old man with white hair and beard.
However, his spirit was still hale and hearty. In particular, his eyes were filled with indifference, as if he had seen the rise and fall of a hundred years. Nothing could cause any waves.
Lin Tianyang looked at the old man and bowed slightly. This was the head of the Lin family and his uncle, Lin Zhongxun!
