Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Unexpected Incident—The Lin Family Parents Are Detained

The eyebrows slanted sharply into her temples, her eyes deep as the stars, with a piercing gaze that seemed to see through one’s heart.

Standing before the beautiful War God who exuded confidence and rebellion all over, Liou Wen instantly lost all her confidence.

Whether in terms of looks or aura, she had quite a few gaps compared to Xiyue.

As for prowess, they were simply not on the same level at all.

After getting slapped by Xiyue, how could Liou Wen dare to cause a fuss?

Daring to demand Lin Yi to apologize was merely relying on the privilege of being a woman.

”Is the force of this apology enough? If not, should I add more?”

Unexpectedly meeting Lin Yi and leaving him with a image of being willful and headstrong, Liou Wen’s plans to negotiate marriage with Lin Yi using her father’s influence and resources fell through completely.

Guests coming in and out of the Lin Family were already many, and staying longer would only invite further humiliation.

After secretly cursing Lin Yi, Liou Wen took her gift and left in embarrassment, covering her face.

”Principal, won’t you come in and sit for a while?”

Lin Yi coming home was a pleasant surprise for the guests.

But unfortunately, this number one genius of Xia was very clear-headed.

He knew well that those who would offer help when his achievements were not recognized were the ones worth trusting.

So, after a brief exchange with Mr. and Ms. Lin, he had Xiyue help in greeting the guests, while he took Zuo Qian into a private reception room.

”Principal, for you to come all the way to the Imperial Capital personally, I guess it’s not just to visit me, right? If you have any matters, feel free to speak.”

Sitting in front of Lin Yi, Zuo Qian felt like he was in a dream.

This young man in front of him, how long had it been since graduation? Yet he had climbed from being a plain professional to a genius in all of Xia’s spotlight.

In less than a year, he had reached a peak that ordinary people couldn’t achieve in their lifetime. How remarkable this kid was!

”Hey, kid, you’re still as smart as before.”

”It’s nothing serious. It’s just that Wang Dahai and those guys said Second High wants to expand, get more resources, and they’re hoping to pull in more sponsorships through your reputation. So I’m here to get some photos of you from your days at Second High from your mom and dad....”

It’s natural that a nationwide top scorer would attract many excellent students to Jiangcheng Second High.

But for a Second High in a level-five base city, how good could the facilities be? How good could the faculty be?

Even if Jiangcheng poured its educational resources towards Second High, it couldn’t elevate the school to a much higher standard.

To quickly improve Jiangcheng Second High’s infrastructure, getting sponsorship was essential.

Logically, Lin Yi had no reason to refuse.

He could even have Zuo Qian over for a meal at home, take a few photos, and Zuo Qian would certainly secure a lot of sponsorships later.

”Forget it, Principal.”

”Some things can’t be rushed. Expanding, getting more faculty to uplift our school to a high standard should be put on pause for now.”

”What do you think, Principal?”

Lin Yi refused him?

At the moment of hearing the answer, Zuo Qian was very angry.

He almost couldn’t hold back from calling Lin Yi ungrateful, for such a simple request of taking a photo, this kid was unwilling?

After a careful thought, recalling Lin Yi’s earlier confrontation with a rich family’s daughter for his sake, Zuo Qian calmed down.

After calming his emotions, Zuo Qian couldn’t help but ask: May I ask why?

He was clear about how much he was shouldering.

Some matters, even the closest parents couldn’t be informed of, let alone Zuo Qian?

With a thought, two pieces of crystal-clear ore floated out from the space he carried with him.

Lin Yi grabbed them and handed them to Zuo Qian.

”Principal, if you trust me, do as I say. Our school will have its day of reversal, but not now.”

”Keep these two stones well, and if the school ever urgently needs funds, sell them and use the proceeds. Of course, don’t handle it personally. If there’s anything, go to the Xia Professional Alliance and find Taidou War God Mr. Zhou, he will handle this for you.”

”Additionally, take this too.”

Saying this, Lin Yi took out a token and handed it to Zuo Qian.

”Zhang Shan and Jiang Ya are my good buddies and friends. If they encounter any trouble in the future, you can give this to them.”

”Alright, Principal, since you’re here, won’t you join for a meal?”

Even not meeting Lin Yi, catching a glimpse of War God Xiyue was something to be happy about.

Seeing Xiyue act like a demure daughter-in-law receiving guests for the Lin Family, the two elders were very pleased.

Had it not been for their son being not old enough, they’d have pressured them to get things done quickly.

After sending off the guests, enjoying a simple family meal, Lin Yi ate with great relish.

It had to be Mom’s cooking which he could never tire of.

After the meal, Xiyue washed dishes with Ms. Lin, while Lin Guodong watched TV with his son.

”Kid, your mom and I watched the broadcast last night. You really brought pride to the Lin Family. Surely, you must have received a grand merit this time? How many days off did the school reward you with? You can stay at home for quite a few days, right?”

Mr. Lin was beaming with pride, such an accomplished son made him immensely proud.

”Father, I’m afraid I’ll have to leave soon with Xiyue.”

With these words, Lin Guodong’s smile briefly froze before continuing with a grin.

”Right, at an age when you should shine and venture out. But those people upstairs, you achieved such great feats, yet they don’t let you rest for a few days.”

Lin Yi did not echo these sentiments.

Instead, he solemnly spoke.

”Dad, Mom, sometimes, things aren’t as simple as they appear on the surface. To achieve certain goals, sacrifices have to be made. After I leave, you and Mom must take good care of yourselves.”

Hearing this, the smile on Lin Guodong’s face came to a halt.

This kid, why suddenly such serious words?

Before Lin Guodong could ask, Xiyue finished tidying up the kitchen and walked over, nodded to Lin Yi.

After a brief farewell to the elders, Lin Yi, hand in hand with Xiyue, left together.

”Kid’s father, just now Xiyue said something strange to me, it sounded like she was saying goodbye.”

”Hmm? Lin Yi also, could it be...”

Upon boarding Lingyue, Lin Yi took out a special Communication Spirit Crystal, and sent a message to his only contact.

Then, he set Lingyue’s destination to the vicinity of the Beautiful Country.

Once Lin Guodong and his wife sensed something was amiss, they tried calling their son and future daughter-in-law, but were unable to connect.

Just as they planned to call Mr. Yang, the vice president of Shenxiao, the Xia Professional Alliance Army suddenly arrived, and without a word, took the two elders away in restraints.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Xia Professional Alliance Army in Region A, an elderly man was gazing toward the direction of the Beautiful Country, lost in thought.
