Chapter 155 Back Home (1/2)

Foothold No.7A12, also known as Qiantang City was the most popular attraction at Division7.

The beautiful scenery constantly changed according to the four seasons.

With blooming blossoms come forth spring,

Autumn dances in the moonlight beam,

Summer calls with whispering winds,

Of snow and frost, winter sings.

It was a poem written by a strong man to extol Qiantang City almost 700 years ago.

Lin Huang arrived at Qiantang City for the first time and this city gave him a good first impression.

Though he did not stay there for long, if Lin Huang was to settle down someday, Qiantang City would be his first choice.

”Let's see if I can apply for permanent residency in this city. If I could, it'd be good to stay here together with Xin Er.” Lin Huang thought of this in his heart when he left.

The price of a house was no longer a problem to Lin Huang. However, it was not easy to get approval for permanent residency in an A-grade foothold.

Together with Lin Xuan, the both of them stayed at Qiantang City for two days. Then, they went back to Baqi City through the dimensional portal.

Upon their arrival at Baqi City, Lin Huang immediately removed the disguise that he had been wearing and reverted to his original look.

Lin Huang was worried that Lin Xuan could not recognize him after he had removed his disguise but Lin Xuan could not tell the difference. This made it quite convenient for Lin Huang as he could save his breath on the lengthy explanation he had prepared earlier. Both of them rode on the Alexandrian Eagle and returned to Wulin Town.

Lin Huang had left for about two months.

He initially planned to come back once he had upgraded to bronze-level. One month was enough for him but he had never expected so many things to happen. He knew that Lin Xin must be very worried about him.

His suspicions were correct as he could hear that Lin Xin running down the stairs the moment he opened the door.

”Brother!” She immediately pounced on Lin Huang the moment she saw him.

She hugged Lin Huang tightly, unwilling to let go of him. She was trying to hold back the tears she had in her eyes.

”I'm fine. Some incidents happened and that's why I'm late for a month.” Lin Huang stroked Lin Xin's head, explaining what happened to her with a smile.

”I've been calling your number every day but I couldn't get through. I thought something bad had happened to you…” Lin Xin burst into tears.

”My Emperor's Heart Ring is not functioning well. I'll repair it soon.” Lin Huang could only explain it this way.

His use of the Emperor's Heart Ring had been restricted when he encountered the Purple Crow. When the Purple Crow left, he created a fake ident.i.ty for himself and the original Emperor's Heart Ring was kept in storage. To avoid attracting the Purple Crow's attention, he dared not contact Lin Xin using his Emperor's Heart Ring.

”Alright, stop crying.” Lin Huang tried to comfort her.

It was only after a long while that Lin Xin released her hands and finally noticed the little boy who was standing beside Lin Huang.

”The child is…” Looking at the boy who was less than nine years old, Lin Xin asked doubtfully.

Lin Huang then explained everything to her.

”He is so pitiful. Brother, can we adopt him?” Lin Xin sympathize with the boy.

”If n.o.body comes looking for him, he has to stay here.” Lin Huang explained.

”Alright, before his parents come, you can't ask him to leave the house.” Lin Xin immediately switched sides.

”Hey, when did I ask him to leave?” Lin Huang pinched Lin Xin's cheeks and said, ”I have given him a new name, Lin Xuan. Introduce yourself to him.”

”h.e.l.lo, my name is Lin Xin. I am your brother's sister.” Lin Xin introduced herself to Lin Xuan, ”I'm turning 14 soon. I'm older than you and you should address me as your sister. If anyone dares to bully you around here, I'll help you straighten them out!”

Lin Xin was very happy and said, ”I finally have a little brother!”

”Brother, where's Lin Xuan going to sleep tonight?” Lin Xin suddenly thought of this.

”I'll put a small bed in my room. He can sleep in my room.” Lin Huang just thought of this and realized that he should settle this problem first. ”I'll go to Furniture City and buy him a bed as well as some food. Can you play with him first? If he gets hungry, give him some meat to eat. We'll eat some good food later during lunch.”

”Alright, come home earlier. It's already 11 o'clock.” Lin Xin looked at the time and said.

Right after Lin Huang left, Lin Xin played with Lin Xuan for a while.

”You will be full later if you eat meat now. I'll get you some sweets.” Lin Xin walked to the kitchen and took out some sweets from the snack cabinet and placed them on the table. ”Choose whichever ones you like.”

Lin Xuan looked at the sweets and kept quiet.

”How about trying this? It tastes good.” Lin Huang chose one of the colorful sweets and gave it to him. That was her favorite flavor.

Lin Xuan shook his head. He did not take the sweets but he turned his head towards the refrigerator instead.

”Are you sure you want to eat meat?” Lin Xin frowned.
