CHAPTER 1004: CHAPTER 1001: LOYAL AND DEVOTED

Lin Tian could only smile bitterly; what was this gate rule nonsense, he simply couldn’t explain it. However, since Jiang Xiu Ying misunderstood, he decided to let it be to avoid racking his brain for excuses.

"Xiao Tian, how do we use this Yin Yang Life Elixir?" Yun Haoyu asked, as this elixir was related to his father’s legs.

Since this question related to treatment, Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, "It’s hard to explain in just a few words. If Mr. Yun’s condition is good, I can start treatment for him tomorrow, and then everyone will know how to use it."

"Ever since you came to the Yun Family, my spirits couldn’t be better; I’m ready for treatment anytime." Yun Hongxi said with a cheerful smile.

Having been in a wheelchair for twenty years, he longed to stand again. In the past, there was no hope, but now, with hope, he naturally wanted to recover quickly.

Lin Tian turned to Jiang Xiu Ying and said, "Elder Jiang, you have always been Mr. Yun’s primary physician. Do you have any suggestions?"

"Yun Hongxi is indeed in good spirits; how about scheduling treatment for three o’clock tomorrow afternoon?" Jiang Xiu Ying suggested, considering that everyone stayed up late tonight and would be tired, so she postponed the treatment slightly.

"I have no objections." Lin Tian replied casually, and everyone else nodded in agreement.

"That’s great, let’s keep it here tomorrow afternoon. It’s really too late tonight; everyone should go home and rest well." Mr. Yun finally instructed, then turned to the one-armed middle-aged man beside him and said, "Xiao Wu, help Xiao Tian move his things and send him back to Yunxiang Inn."

"Alright, sir." Yun Wu agreed respectfully.

Though he was one-armed, Yun Wu had an astonishing strength. With a single-handed grip, he lifted the cauldron with ease and a calm demeanor, which Lin Tian secretly marveled at.

"Sir, Elder Jiang... Senior Sister, I’ll be heading back first. You’ve worked hard, Senior Sister, rest early." Lin Tian bade farewell to each, lastly looking at Zi Yan.

He couldn’t help but glance at her chest. Lin Tian thought regretfully that Zi Yan had already buttoned up, and the beautiful view was no longer visible.

Zi Yan’s eyes flickered a bit, and a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, obviously noticing Lin Tian’s gaze at her chest.

What an enchanting vixen! I need a cold shower to cool off, Lin Tian thought as he fled awkwardly from the villa, making Zi Yan’s smile broaden.

Lin Tian wasn’t afraid of Zi Yan’s teasing, but in front of so many seniors, if Zi Yan stirred up certain reactions from men, it would be quite embarrassing. You must know, Zi Yan could always strike that most restless chord in your heart.

Outside the Yun Family’s restricted area, a breeze cooled Lin Tian’s fire a bit. He looked back at Yun Wu, who was following silently. Seeing Lin Tian turn, Yun Wu gave a friendly grin.

But to Lin Tian, the smile seemed dry; it was likely that this guy was usually a man of few words, accustomed to being stoic.

Returning to Yunxiang Inn, An Xiaoru had already gone to bed. Lin Tian asked Yun Wu to place the cauldron in the corner of the living room, then prepared to go upstairs. But after placing it, Yun Wu didn’t move, seemingly not intending to leave.

Hmm, what’s Yun Wu doing? Is he planning to stay overnight? Lin Tian was very puzzled. Damn, no way. You’re a middle-aged uncle; I’m not interested. If it was Senior Sister, that’d be more like it, Lin Tian thought awkwardly.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for refining the elixir to treat Sir." Yun Wu suddenly said seriously.

Lin Tian was taken aback but quickly came to his senses, "No need to thank me. I promised Xiao Tian, so I’ll naturally fulfill it."

"Sir adopted me as a child and has been very kind to me, greater than my birth parents. You saved Sir, which effectively saved me as well; you’re my benefactor." Yun Wu said solemnly.

Lin Tian looked at Yun Wu without speaking, knowing that Yun Wu definitely had more to say. He was very curious about what this one-armed bodyguard he’d only met once wanted to do.

"Mr. Lin may face some trouble lately; I can solve it for you." Yun Wu said.

"Oh? How do you know I’m in trouble? What do you mean?" Lin Tian asked calmly.

"Mo Mingda; I heard about how he’s threatening your loved ones and friends. If you’re willing, Mr. Lin, just give me a nod, and I can take care of Mo Mingda." Yun Wu said coldly.

Despite missing an arm, talking about taking down a young man seemed effortlessly easy, though his words were quite surprising.

Lin Tian’s gaze turned sharp, his expression unchanged: "Is this your idea or the old man’s?"

"It’s my idea. After all, Mo Mingda, though committing an unforgivable act and betraying the Yun Family, remains a family relative; I don’t want to trouble Sir, so I took it upon myself to offer this to Mr. Lin." Yun Wu explained.

"Thank you for your kind offer, but there’s no need for that. Given Mo Mingda’s usual arrogance, he surely has many enemies. His expulsion from the Yun Family will spread across Jinghua City. At this moment, he’s crippled; I don’t think he’ll last long before tasting his own defeat; don’t you think?" Lin Tian said lightly.

In society, many things follow the principle of others pushing down a fallen wall. Few offer a helping hand during tough times, but many kick you when you’re down. Despite Mo Mingda’s connections with many noble friends usually, once the news of his expulsion spreads, friends will avoid him.

No one will help a fallen person; the noble circle may look glamorous but is actually very cold. Their connections often value benefits over friendship.

"I understand." Yun Wu nodded respectfully and said no more before leaving the villa and Yunxiang Inn.

Indeed, Yun Wu was a loyal Yun Wu, a grateful Yun Wu; he always put himself in a servant’s position. If it were ancient times, he’d be a devoted servant willing to die for his master, Lin Tian thought with some emotion as he watched Yun Wu’s departing silhouette.

However, Yun Wu’s words reminded Lin Tian of Rossi’s mission; now thinking, perhaps before Rossi could find Mo Mingda, Mo Mingda might already have suffered at the hands of his enemies.

No matter who makes Mo Mingda disappear, Lin Tian doesn’t mind; he only cares about the outcome.

Checking the time, it was already five past midnight, not far from dawn. Lin Tian withdrew his thoughts, returning to his bedroom, taking a cold shower before sleeping.

Yet Lin Tian underestimated the aftereffects of Zi Yan’s teasing. Even after a cold shower, he still dreamed of his enchanting senior sister.

Sweet dreams are endlessly great, but close to waking up, dreams for an inexperienced boy seem to have the same result, always waking up at the key moment. Lin Tian was no exception; just as he was about to take action in his dream, a knock on the door dragged him back to reality.
