Chapter 1849: Time for Burned Offerings

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I don’t think we need to worry about this,” Qiu Yuluo said.

“With Elder Lu’s abilities, handling such matters should be a breeze. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived so many years so smoothly.”

Qiu Yuluo’s words were met with Ning Che’s agreement. She thought the same.

For a long time, Lu Beichen had been an enigmatic figure in their minds, someone no one could quite figure out.

Although this situation was significant, it likely wouldn’t affect him.

But Lin Yi didn’t share this view.

With Lu Beichen’s capabilities, following a step-by-step approach would surely pose no problem.

The issue was that the matter had been brought forward, disrupting his plans and preventing him from addressing each issue individually.

This greatly increased the risks and uncertainties.

Apart from that, there was another factor that made Lin Yi worried.

The destruction of the Wang family would be an earth-shattering event for both Yanjing and Huaxia.

After all, they were one of the top five families in Huaxia. Their destruction in such an unusual way would definitely arouse suspicion.

But up until now, there was no ripple at all. Lu Beichen must have played a part in this.

It was undeniable that there had to be a price to pay. As for what it was, only Lu Beichen knew.

Perhaps the higher-ups already had some reservations about him.

If the families hiding in the dark attacked him together this time, the impact would be greater than he had imagined.

The risk factor would also increase greatly, which was not a good sign.

However, there had been no movement until now. All he could do was observe in secret. He could not do much.

“Let’s put this matter aside for now. After all, nothing has been revealed yet. We can only take it one step at a time. There’s no need to worry about it in advance.”

The two of them nodded. Ning Che asked,

“Director Li’s condition is getting better and better. What are your plans for the future?”

This was what they were both concerned about. Now that they had gotten their revenge, there was not much reason for Lin Yi to stay in Yanjing.

Therefore, they all wanted to know what he would do next.

Lin Yi fell silent. This was a question he had been avoiding. He didn’t know where else he could go other than Yanjing.

Liang Ruoxu would be okay, but he did not know how to face Ji Qingyan.

This happened so suddenly that he was not prepared at all. He had to find a suitable reason and method to go back.

“Let’s talk about it after some time. I plan to go to Chuansheng in the next few days. Zhou Liang died because of me. No matter what, I have to go and visit him.”

Lin Yi’s thoughts were within their expectations.

He was that kind of person. He was always the type who valued relationships above all else.

“I’ll go with you.” Qiu Yuluo said.

“Boss Liu and I went there once before. We can bring you there.”

“Alright, let’s talk about it in a few days. There’s no hurry.”

“Just call me when you’re leaving.”

“Okay.”

The two of them stayed in the hospital for a while more before leaving for the Central Guards Brigade.

Lin Yi stretched lazily and looked at Qiao Xin.

“After staying here all night, I’ll go back to the hotel to take a shower and sleep before coming back.”

“It’s fine. I’m not tired,” Qiao Xin said, clearly not wanting to leave.

“You smell. Why doesn’t a little girl care about hygiene?”

Qiao Xin sniffed her body curiously. “1 know the truth. You just want to chase me away.”

Although she still wanted to stay here with Li Chuhan for a while, Qiao Xin knew that she couldn’t stay here and be a third wheel at this time.

“Then 1’11 leave first.”

After packing up briefly, Qiao Xin bade the two of them farewell and left, looking happy.

“Sit on the bed for a while. Don’t move now, or you will hurt youself.”

Li Chuhan was very obedient. With Lin Yi’s help, she slowly moved under the blanket.

“I moved for a while just now. I’ll help you relax your muscles and bones. You have to slowly recover at this stage.”

Lin Yi reached under the blanket and massaged the joints and muscles on her legs.

However, because he had been relying on supplementary nutrition for so many days, Li Chuhan had lost a lot of weight, and the muscles on her calves had become weak.

Li Chuhan sat motionless on the bed and quietly looked at the man in front of her.

Lin Yi was also focused, hoping that he could do this to help Li Chuhan relax so that she would recover soon.

It was only when he heard the sound of tears falling that he realized that two streams of water were flowing down from the corners of her eyes.

“Everything is fine Why are you crying?”

Lin Yi reached out and wiped away Li Chuhan’s tears. “I’m okay. You’ve recovered too. Everything is going well, but you’re crying. Look at what you’ve become.”

Even so, Li Chuhan’s tears did not stop.

She slowly raised her arms and hugged Lin Yi gently, but she cried even harder.

She didn’t know why, but looking at Lin Yi like this made her want to cry.

Lin Yi hugged Li Chuhan gently and caressed her back.

This time, Lin Yi didn’t persuade her and said gently,

“Go ahead and cry. Let out all the emotions in your heart. We still have a long way to go. If you weren’t with me, I would be so lonely.”

Li Chuhan was so weak that she couldn’t speak, but her tears were more expressive than any words.

Because I understand you.

You are in my eyes, and 1 am in your heart.

Gradually, Li Chuhan’s sobbing quieted down. Due to her weakness, she fell asleep on Lin Yi’s shoulder.

Lin Yi carefully settled her down and quietly left the emergency room to avoid disturbing her rest.

If things continued to improve, she would be able to leave and return to the high-care ward by evening.

Ring ring ring!

Lin Yi was stretching his body in the corridor when he received a call from Song Jinmin.

“Where are you?”

“Union Medical,” Lin Yi replied, “What’s the matter?”

“Give me a specific address and 1’11 meet you there.”

Soon, Lin Yi sent the exact address to Song Jinmin. Less than an hour later, he walked over casually.

When he saw Song Jinmin this time, his clothes looked much cleaner.

Unlike in Dubai, where he looked disheveled like a vagrant. It was no wonder Ning Che called him a loser.

Lin Yi was looking forward to seeing Song Jinmin, hoping to learn more about the situation in Zhonghai and Yangcheng, which he knew nothing about.

“Why are you back here?”

“Everything’s sorted out in Yangcheng, so 1 came back.”

“It’s been a week. It was just a burial. Did it really take that long? What, did you find someone to perform rituals for me?”

“You Huaxians have a custom of burning offerings on the seventh day after death. We weren’t in a hurry to leave, so we stayed in Yangcheng to burn offerings for you on the seventh day.”

Uh… they even burned offerings on the seventh day, that’s quite traditional..
