C119 (2/2)

As for the other things, he did not expect that they would be gone for long anyway. Hence, he made a phone call to the Talking about the Old Man, told him about it, rented a car, and drove straight home.

The place that he grew up in, was a small village that was as beautiful as mountains and waters. However, as his Eldest Uncle grew up, when he was ten years old, he moved into the county with his cousin Lin Chen with him. However, it was only here that he coincidentally discovered that the father that he had been calling out to all these years, was actually not his biological father, but his Eldest Uncle instead.

This incident was definitely an unimaginable blow to the young him. For some reason, his uncle wasn't willing to tell him where his parents went. Every time he asked, it was to impatiently tell him that they were dead.

It was because of this that he became colder and colder day by day. Moreover, this cold and detached feeling continued from his introspection until now.

However, the development of his character was not something that could be done in a day or two. If he could not remove the knot in his heart, then this kind of apathy would become more and more powerful with his cultivation.

When they arrived at the county city, Lin Jin did not pay too much attention to the changes that had occurred in his hometown over the past year.

His uncle lived in an ordinary looking commercial house, but this commercial house was the best in the county when they moved here. But now, almost all the buildings were beside it.

The walls of the room had been darkened by some naughty kids, making it look extremely dirty and messy. Walking to the door, Lin Jin pressed the doorbell and waited outside.

However, it was as if there was no one inside and no one came to open the door even after pressing a few times. He had also changed the lock. The key from a year and a half ago was now invalid.

However, this lock was no longer difficult for him. Lin Jin held the door handle, and sent a wave of zhenqi inside. After turning slightly, the lock made a light sound, and the anti-theft door had already been opened from the inside.

This room had three bedrooms and one living room. The one opposite the door was where Lin Jin used to live, and the one next to him was his cousin Lin Chen's bedroom. The other room was naturally his uncle's room.

However, the floor of the usually clean room was now covered with a thick layer of dirty dust. There were also many messy footprints left behind, as if many people had walked back and forth.

Moreover, some of the most exquisite furniture had been moved there, leaving only a low set of combined furniture and a wooden sofa.

As his aunt died too early, Lin Jin had only seen his appearance in the photos. Thinking about it, it was not easy for his Eldest Uncle to pull the two of them together. Slightly sighing, Lin Jin frowned and threw his backpack onto the wooden sofa.

There was a faint sound of weeping from his cousin's room.

Could it be Lin Chen? Frowning, Lin Jin walked towards the crying room.

Walking into the room, he saw a thirteen-fourteen year old little fatty on a bed by the wall. He didn't even take off his shoes or clothes, and was just lying there sobbing. And from the looks of it, it was in his dreams.

”Hey!” Lin Chen, wake up! ” Lin Jin patted his fat butt, feeling that his flesh was still the same as before, trembling from above.

At this time, Lin Chen was in the midst of a dream, and he suddenly jumped out of fright. He looked at the person who patted him with alert, and when he saw Lin Jin, his tears immediately flowed out: ”Big brother, you're finally back. Daddy, Daddy has been taken away by them, wuu …”

Lin Chen was only three years younger than him, but because Lin Jin was naughty and mischievous when he was young, Lin Chen liked to follow behind him the most, just like a fat little brat. And because Lin Chen was fat, he was always bullied by others, so before he was ten years old, Lin Jin was his guardian.

Even if it was the first time that he and his uncle were at loggerheads, Lin Chen would always stand on Lin Jin's side. Unfortunately, at that time, Lin Jin was wholeheartedly resentful towards his uncle, and even Lin Chen had grown resentful towards him.

However, the current Lin Jin was no longer a ten-year old child who knew nothing and only knew resentment.

His experience outside the school in the past few years had taught him that there was something else in the world called 'unspeakable, unspeakable'. Other than wanting to know the whereabouts of his parents, his hatred towards his uncle was no longer as deep.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Lin Jin to cultivate to his current level.

Seeing that both of Lin Chen's eyes were lifeless and swollen from crying, Lin Jin couldn't help but think of how he protected him when he was young, and immediately comforted him.

When he calmed down and asked, he found out that his uncle Lin Zhenbang had accepted bribes for embezzlement. After two months of quarantine inspection, he was finally convicted and locked up by the county's police two days ago.

However, he didn't know what the real reason was.

Lin Jin could not help but frown and think. In his memories, although Eldest Uncle Lin Zhenbang was a little rigid, he didn't feel that he was someone who loved money. Furthermore, from the looks of his family, although he wasn't really rich, he still had a small fortune, so he didn't feel the need to take the risk.

Could he have offended someone?
