Chapter 1269 – Something is Wrong With the Water!

“Aunty Chen, call me Lil’ Yi will do, Mr. Lin didn’t sound so good.” Lin Yi smiled. “I see you’ve recovered a lot- more than I’ve expected to be honest. We can proceed to the next treatment with this speed.”

“I won’t hold back then, Lil’ Yi!” Mother Chen grinned. “Thanks to your prescription, otherwise I wouldn’t have recovered this fast! Xi, go get some tea for the guests, why are you standing there not moving?”

“Yes, mom!” Chen Xi had gotten closer to Lin Yi and Xiaoxiao this afternoon, so she had completely forgotten to serve them with tea.

“There’s no need for trouble. We don’t need tea.” Lin Yi waved his hand. “I’m here just to check how aunty is going with the progress. We are pleased to see the result, Xiao xiao and I are leaving already!”

“That quickly? Why don’t you guys stay for dinner?” Mother Chen quickly asked them to stay back when she heard Lin Yi was leaving.

“Okay, let’s eat together then.” Lin Yi nodded- he didn’t really matter since he was free tonight. As long as Xioaxiao was by her side, that was what mattered.

Remembering that as long as he was keeping Xiaoxiao happy, the Miss wouldn’t mind at all, no matter how late the night he returns home.

Feng Xiaoxiao was indeed happy- she became very cheerful after seeing the positivity in Chen Xi.

“Nice, Xi, and I will prepare for the dinner in the kitchen, Lil’ Yi, you stay in the living room watching the Tv with Xiaoxiao, okay?” Aunty Chen was glad that Lin Yi agreed to stay back for dinner.

“It’s okay. We can help, it’s always faster with more hands.” Lin Yi smiled. “You guys better don’t look down at me, I’m a master chef myself!”

“Haha, Lin Yi honey is seriously good at cooking!” Xiaoxiao added.

Mother Chen wanted to reject the offer formally, but after listening to them, did she allow them to the kitchen.

Chen Xi was cleaning the vegetables while Mother Chen was slicing the meat, Xiaoxiao was helping her out, but Lin Yi had nothing to do.

“This is the water to wash the vegetables…” Lin Yi froze and glared at the pile of water in front of Chen Xi.

“What’s wrong with the water? Brother Lin Yi?” Chen Xi didn’t understand.

“Let me have a look.” Lin Yi squeezed his way in and pushed Chen Xi to the side- her face blushed upon the physical contact. She relaxed after gazing at Lin Yi, who didn’t seem to have any reaction towards it.

How would Lin Yi know what this kid was thinking? It would be normal if Ying Ziyu had dirty thoughts- she was a gangster after all, but how could a good girl like Chen Xi had this kind of thought? However, as innocent as Chen Xi was, she was still in her puberty state- having fantasies about the opposite-sex was totally normal.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi had been helping her family- it was impossible for her not to have feelings towards him. Although the feeling was hazy, she didn’t dare expose it out, either- she was afraid that Xiaoxiao would find out and thought that she was trying to seduce her boyfriend.

“Where did you get this water from?” Lin Yi soaked his finger into the water and tasted it before asking.

“Ah! This is the tap water, what’s wrong?” Chen Xi was forcefully dragged back to reality from her fantasy by Lin Yi’s word.

“Tap water??” Lin Yi furrowed his eyebrows and opened the tap water as he tasted the water again.

“Lil’ Li, what’s the matter?” is there something wrong with the water?” Mother Chen saw that Lin Yi was investigating the water; she quickly came to his side. “Is the quality of the water that bad? In an old city is like this, even though we have used a water purifier….”

“Water purifier?” Lin Yi lowered his body to find a water purifier underneath the basin. Without hesitation, he shut down the source of water and pulled the water purifier out.

Lin Yi’s action stunned both Chen Xi and her mother. If this was another man, they would definitely stop him, how could someone just remove the water purifier without asking?

However, it was Lin Yi- he must have his reasons, so Mother Chen didn’t comment on it.

“Where did you buy this water purifier from?” Lin Yi carefully analyzed the water purifier and asked.

“We didn’t buy this water purifier, Grandpa Zhu gave it to us when he picked up the goods, he changed the filter and set up for us. What’s wrong, brother Lin Yi, is there something wrong with it?” Chen Xi asked.

“Nothing, this water purifier is no longer useable, it’s not clean anymore.” Lin Yi frowned- it was Grandpa Zhu again? Could it be that Grandpa Zhu was the one who created Mother Chen’s illness?

Inside the water purifier, there was a substance. After consuming it for a period of time- it would cause cancer. Lin Yi didn’t know why Chen Xi was able to escape having cancer, could it be that because of her young age? Was her defense still strong? Or did she consume an antidote?

All in all, Mother Chen’s cancer was not natural- it was man-made! After removing the water purifier, Lin Yi connected the hose to the pipe and tasted the water again. The water went back to normal!

Lin Yi was frowning harder and harder. His suspicion was getting stronger and stronger too!

Previously, Lin Yi didn’t understand why Grandpa Zhu was staying by Chen Xi’s side, but since Grandpa Zhu didn’t do her any harm, Lin Yi didn’t really mind as he was just curious why would a mystic class peak late phase master always by her side?

But now, Lin Yi had confirmed his doubt- this Grandpa Zhu was a good for nothing! How dare insert poison into the water purifier, causing Mother Chen to have cancer! However, Lin Yi still couldn’t figure out the reason why a mystic class master would go over all the troubles to harm Chen Xi’s mother? Why not just kill her with a single blow?

Could it be there was a bigger reason behind all this?

Of course, Lin Yi didn’t reveal anything to the mother and daughter- he only kept his thoughts with himself. In fact, they were closer now, but their relationship wasn’t intimate, it was not a good idea for Lin Yi to go blame Grandpa Zhu in his face.

As far as he was concerned, Chen Xi’s and Grandpa Zhu’s relationship was super close, if he were to reveal everything out suddenly- Chen Xi might not believe him at all!

“The water purifier is not clean? Then we can’t use that anymore! We really shouldn’t rely on pick-up goods that much!” Mother Chen didn’t think that it was a big issue. “We aren’t no professionals, after all. Since Lil’ Yi found out the issue, then we won’t use it anymore!”

“The water quality isn’t that bad, actually.” Lin Yi continued. “No water purifier is needed, just use the direct source next time.”
