Chapter 790: Chapter 790: Blame No One But Yourself

Does she not know her master’s little schemes? He spoke so confidently before leaving An City today, saying he’d never come back again.

If his son stays here and he runs back, wouldn’t that be slapping himself in the face?

Even if it’s just a joke, the old man has his pride.

Sure enough, when Lin Chuxia finished speaking, Old Master He grumbled with displeasure, “Pack up what? What’s there to pack in that broken house? I’ve already said it’s yours, how could I take it back? If you don’t want that house, then I’ll return the house in Yan City to you, and I might as well move back. An old man like me, always taking advantage of my disciple, what’s the point?”

Lin Chuxia held back a laugh, “Master, do you not want to owe me, or do you want to live with Senior Brother? If you want to live with Senior Brother, just say it straight. Although we’ve been taking care of each other all these years and I’m used to it, if Senior Brother finally comes back and you toss me aside for your own son, I can understand.”

Old Master He nearly jumped up at these words, pointing chopsticks at Lin Chuxia, “You understand, you understand what you understand.”

He then cast a guilty glance at He Jianshe, “When did I ever want to live with him? I’m annoyed just looking at him; I’d rather not see him and have peace of mind.”

Though he said this, everyone present noticed.

Since Old Master He met He Jianshe, whether it was He Jianshe speaking or others, Old Master He’s gaze was locked on He Jianshe.

No matter how he looked, there was never enough to see.

Especially when He Jianshe talked about his life in the army, Old Master He’s gaze was filled with deep pride.

He Jianshe could naturally sense his father’s fondness too.

After listening to his father banter with his little junior sister for a while,

he realized that when his father was with his little junior sister, he seemed like a different person.

The father he remembered, although good to them, was a stern father through and through.

It was the first time he saw this playful side of his father.

It also showed that over these years, his father had indeed been well cared for by his little junior sister.

Before his father and little junior sister returned, he and Su Wensong had understood a bit of the family situation.

His two sisters ignored their father, leaving him to sit daily at the train station, a lonely old man with no one to rely on.

It was his little junior sister, selling buns at the station, who felt sorry for the father and gave him buns to eat every day, thus forming this master-disciple relationship.

Yet, after knowing the little junior sister’s capabilities, his two sisters shamelessly tried to reconnect.

Even after his father severed ties with them, the second sister secretly sold the furniture and items the little junior sister bought for the father.

Hearing these things, He Jianshe felt deeply ashamed.

He had long known that his two sisters were indifferent to them, even to the point of hating him.

But no matter what, their father had never wronged them; he is their biological father after all.

He even believed his father’s words — were it not for meeting the little junior sister, he didn’t know if his father could have held on until his return.

He Jianshe raised a glass of wine, “Little junior sister, I toast you this glass of wine.”

Without saying much more, everything was expressed in silence.

Old Master He was still worrying about whose house it was and whether He Jianshe should stay.

He Jianshe put down his glass and said with a smile, “Since father gave the house to little junior sister, then it’s hers. The organization has arranged a job for me, not in An City, so I might have to trouble the little junior sister and brother-in-law in the future.”

Hearing this, Lin Chuxia’s eyes lit up, “Senior Brother’s work is in Yan City?”

Old Master He also looked over, eyes shining.

He Jianshe nodded, “Yes, at the Yan City Police Department. Housing will also be arranged by the department.”

Not only does he have a job, but housing is also directly provided; it seems Senior Brother holds a high position.

Thinking of Senior Brother coming to Yan City, their big family was gaining another member, which made things livelier. Everyone raised their glasses again.

This meal was enjoyed by all, especially Old Master He, who despite trying to limit himself, ended up drinking to the point of being unsteady on his feet, still shouting with joy.

He Jianshe, feeling helpless, squatted down to carry the old man on his back.

The home was uninhabitable, and Lin Chuxia and the others still needed to return to Yan City.

Since He Jianshe’s job was also arranged in Yan City, there was no need to stay in An City any longer.

He had been staying at a guesthouse these past few days, and Lin Chuxia drove him to pick up his luggage and join them for the trip to Yan City.

The small courtyard in Yan City that belonged to the old man still had space, with just him and Qin Jianjun living there.

He Jianshe intended to do so anyway.

In this world, Old Master He was his only family.

Wherever his father was, that was home.

Old Master He was still in the car. When they arrived at the guesthouse, Lin Chuxia and Qin Yang didn’t get out, waiting for He Jianshe to pick up his luggage and check out.

Old Master He thought they’d reached their destination and wanted to get out, talking about finding his son.

Lin Chuxia helplessly told him that Senior Brother was on his way; he went to get his luggage.

Fortunately, Old Master He, though drunk, wasn’t in a daze. Upon hearing that his son was going back to the house in Yan City with him, he leaned back and closed his eyes happily.

Qin Yang sighed, “It’s the first time I’ve seen Master this happy.”

Lin Chuxia nodded, recalling the first time she met Old Master He.

He was sitting by the entrance of the train station, watching the hustle and bustle from morning till night. His look was truly pitiful.

This old man, who once placed all hope of his son’s return at the center of his life, couldn’t help being overjoyed now that his son was really back.

Just as she was thinking about it, Lin Chuxia suddenly saw a familiar figure across the street.

“What are you looking at?” Qin Yang saw her watching intently and also looked over, “Isn’t that Lin Jiayi? What’s the matter with her?”

Even Qin Yang was surprised. If Lin Chuxia wasn’t too familiar with this person, she nearly didn’t recognize her.

Lin Jiayi was dressed in worn-out clothes, her hair a bit disheveled, wandering down the street with a vacant expression.

To say she was vacant might not be accurate – more like a soulless puppet.

Lin Chuxia withdrew her gaze, “Who knows.”

Qin Yang knew Lin Chuxia and Lin Jiayi had never been on good terms, so he didn’t pursue it further.

He Jianshe quickly emerged with his luggage.

As the car restarted and passed by Lin Jiayi, Lin Chuxia got a clearer look at her condition.

Her eyes were empty, her face dull, with a bruise at the corner of her mouth.

Seeing her like this, Lin Chuxia could easily guess what had happened.

Li Guangyuan regained his past life memories. In his previous life, he lived so comfortably, but in this life, he’s just a vegetable seller. How could he be content?

Despite boasting to everyone in his past life about his “great achievements,” he knew better than anyone how those accolades really came.

Her Qingyun Ladder was ruined by Lin Jiayi’s interference. How could Li Guangyuan possibly spare Lin Jiayi?

And Lin Jiayi actually confessed to Li Guangyuan that she was reborn.

All that can be said is they brought this upon themselves; they have no one else to blame.
