Everyone's Troubles

"Don't think too much." Lin Yi took the box out and removed the ring, putting it on her finger. "It's yours, always yours."

"Okay…" Tang Yun was a little pleasantly surprised—she forgot all her troubles. At this instant, her happiness was sealed, seared into her mind forever. Under the tree shades, Lin Yi put a ring on her- it showed her his love.

"The problem with the Chu family seems to be solved for now, but it hasn't been. Leaving now would make me worry, plus, Yao Yao and Shu aren't hostile towards you either, that's just how their personalities are. They were hostile to me too when we first met, but if you get to know them you'll get along with them…" Lin Yi consoled.

"Oh? Oh…" Tang Yun paused, not understanding if this was a hint on Lin Yi's part. Was he saying that he wouldn't give up on her even if he'd chosen the Miss? He wanted her to get along with them?

Would she? She didn't know… If Lin Yi did choose the miss, perhaps she would… or maybe not… But what would she do if she wouldn't, would she give Lin Yi over to the miss? No! That would mean the Miss got her way!

Lin Yi's harmless words, unexpectedly, pushed Tang Yun's thoughts in an incorrect direction. All he meant to say was that the Miss would treat a person she accepted with a very friendly att.i.tude…

"Hah… Once the exams are over I'll bring you back during the holidays, let you meet my old man." Lin Yi smiled.

"Okay!" Tang Yun was happy once more. As long as Lin Yi had her in his heart, what did she care about the miss? If Lin Yi didn't like her, there was nothing she could do to make him stay anyway. "Then… What do I call him?"

"Uh… Grandpa, I guess. That's about right for his age, though I just called him old man." Lin Yi smiled. He knew that Tang Yun couldn't just call him old man, after all. It was rude.

"Okay." Tang Yun nodded. "Good thing I haven't told my family about this yet, otherwise I wonder what my mom would be up to?"

Tang Yun felt quite helpless regarding her mom.

"Haha…" Lin Yi smiled. Lin Yi himself was a little helpless when it came to Miss Tang. She'd always been there from the first day he pursued Tang Yun, so he was grateful and wouldn't say much about her greedy tendencies.

House Chu's troubles were over, but that didn't apply to some other people! Anyone with any hostility towards Lin Yi and House Chu was all worried.

The Xiao house.

Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben looked at Uncle Pi, who lay in bed. They didn't know what to say!

After a complicated rescue, Uncle PI's life was kept, but he'd become a vegetable!

"You f.u.c.king greedy b.i.t.c.h!" Xiao Ji slapped at Huli after looking at the Uncle PI who was stuffed with tubes in the sickbed. "Can't you f.u.c.king look where you're going when driving, good job! Now, Uncle Pi's in a vegetative state, what are we Xiaos supposed to do now, huh? We were already falling from grace, now that we don't even have a master to back us up we're done for!"

"Waaahhh…" Huli didn't dare say anything else after getting slapped. She only wiped her tears.

"Crying? That's all you know! The h.e.l.l is crying going to do for us?" Xiao Ji went furious just from looking at his wife, why did he bring home this piece of thing with him? He got angrier at the thought. "Stop crying, this is something you've caused! If you hadn't gone and messed with the Chu's then we wouldn't be in conflict with them in the first place, and we wouldn't be wanting revenge and Uncle Pi wouldn't be lying here! Can't you look where you're going when you drive!!"

"Enough, brother!" Xiao Ben waved his hand. "This isn't the time for fighting. Even if you kill sis-in-law it wouldn't change a thing! It wouldn't solve anything!"

"Then… What do we do?" Xiao Ji sighed, unsure of what he was to do. It was why he dumped all his rage on his wife.

"First, we need to make sure our house stays stable. I suggest marrying the Kangs soon. Otherwise, it's over for us! With Hosue Kang and its business supporting us, we'd still be able to make it through this!" Xiao Ji said. "Second, we can contact Uncle Pi's sect. They wouldn't just sit idly by after he'd gotten injured like this."

"Ah… We'll have to hurry with the marriage, then!" Xiao Ji nodded. "But we don't know Uncle Pi's sect! Also, wasn't it Huili who ran him down?"

"If you and I keep quiet, then it's Lin Yi who did it, who'd know the truth?" Xiao Ben waved his hand. "Even if they find out that sis-in-law did it that doesn't matter. This is a mystic mid-cla.s.s physical pract.i.tioner, you think he'd just get killed by a car? That isn't practical, right?"

"True! But we don't know where his origins are, and father never told us before pa.s.sing…" Xiao Ji nodded. "We didn't get the chance to ask Uncle Pi himself, too."

"That's true too." Xiao Ben frowned. "Alright, just let the news out, and say that Uncle Pi got crippled by Lin Yi…"

"But brother, if we do that the Kangs might not want to get close with us after finding out the truth…" Xiao Ji said worriedly.

"You think we'd be able to hide this if we tried?" Xiao Ben waved his hand. "I'm sure that it wouldn't take long before everyone knew about how House Xiao's in trouble!"

"That's true, there's no way we could hide it." Xiao Ji nodded before going on his way to spread the news as well as contact House Kang…

Yanjing, the Yu's,

Yu Shuixing looked at his third brother Yu Bide's corpse, placed on the living room's center. Tears dropped. "Brother, why have you left us? Without our elder brother, House Yu only has us two left… Why did you leave me?"

Haitian stood at a side, not speaking a word. House Yu had been tyrants for many years, and a tragedy like this was unprecedented! The Yu's didn't know what to do anymore!

Yu Kun sat in his wheelchair as he looked at his father, now a corpse. He couldn't accept this reality. His injuries hadn't recovered yet, and now his father was dead! Lin Yi, why was he so cruel!

"Father, please let me be the one to kill Lin Yi, I'll avenge uncle and brother!" Yu Feng's eyes were raging with fury as well. There were petty conflicts within the Yu family's insider circle, but at this point, when they were threatened by a foreign force, House Yu would most definitely share that rage amongst themselves.
