Chapter 61: Liu Yichen (Part 3)

After thanking her, Mother Liu took off the diamond necklace from her neck and replaced it with a jade pendant handed to her by the little master. As soon as she adjusted the position of the jade, Mother Liu felt a warm current spreading from her chest to her body, warming her chilly body.

For people afraid of the cold, late autumn and early spring were the most uncomfortable seasons. At this time, the weather was cold, but she couldn’t use the heater. Turning it on will make her feel both hot and cold, which felt very uncomfortable.

The same was true for Mother Liu. It was just the month of November but she was now wearing a woolen coat. She has no other choice, her hands and feet were cold. There was no warmth on her body.

Feeling her fingers warming up gradually, Mother Liu was surprised that she held the jade talisman on her chest: “I have heard that the jade talisman of the little master is effective, and it really deserves its reputation. I feel a lot comfortable in just a few minutes.” She stretched her hand into the palm of her husband’s hand: “Can you feel my hand is warm?”

Touching his wife’s warm hand, Father Liu smiled and nodded: “The little master is very famous even at such a young age. She is naturally an expert with real skills. In the past, people praised and called fortune-tellers as half-immortal beings. I think the little master can catch up with those immortals.”

Lin Qingyin waved her hand very humbly: “I’m just one step away from being immortal. I can only be considered a real immortal after I have passed the thunder tribulation.”

Lin Qingyin was telling the truth, but everyone thought she was joking. They all laughed and praised the little master for her humor. After engraving the talisman for Mother Liu, she made a jade talisman for Father Liu.

Father Liu looked very strong, but when he started from scratch in his early years, he suffered a lot of hidden injuries and hidden illnesses in his body. From the look on his face, Father Liu belongs to the kind of person who was loyal and affectionate, and he was an upright person. She really can’t understand how such a person can become good friends with the Zhang family, and they have been in contact for so many years.

The little master didn’t have so many twists and turns in her heart, so she asked whenever she didn’t understand a thing. Her face was full of curiosity.

When Father Liu heard the little master mentioned the Zhang Family, he has a complicated look on his face: “When I was in my 20s, it was in the midst of reform and opening of great opportunities. I was full of enthusiasm to start my own career, but I didn’t have a cent on hand. At that time, I work at a construction site because I can earn a lot of money. It was tiring and dirty. The safety measures were not as standard as they are now, but to earn more money, I relied on being young and energetic to do two people’s work. One time, when I was really tired from working, I felt like I’m floating, but I still struggled to work. At that time, a steel bar lifted by a crane wobbled because it wasn’t tied properly. Zhang Dekai quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed me. Only then I recovered my senses and stepped back a few steps. Nothing bad happened to me, so I have been very grateful to him for so many years.”

Father Liu took a sip of tea and sighed slightly: “It was because of that that I became acquainted with Zhang Dekai. Later, I saved enough capital and went out to do business. When I found a way, I also pulled out Zhang Dekai. Actually, I know his character very well. He is scheming and ambitious, and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. Don’t look at him on the surface, but many people have been cheated by him over the years. My business has always been bigger than Zhang Dekai. Perhaps, he can rely on me so he has been kind to me all these years. Unexpectedly, he made a big move and pitted my son.”

When he mentioned this incident, Father Liu was still indignant: “Even if he took away my business and occupied my company, I wouldn’t be so angry, but that’s my only son. How dare he plotted him.”

Liu Yuchen’s face flushed a little: “Dad, it’s because I’m stupid.”

Father Liu glared at Liu Yuchen: “That’s right, you are stupid.”

  1. “Indeed, my son. You are stupid” (elegant version)

    I guffawed my insides out with that ending in the chapter.

  2. Well, the Liu father is also stupid. He already knew that Zhang’ character yet kept him around solely due to him saving his life. Though that is quite a big thing, it shouldn’t mean that he’d just let them take advantage of them. He said he wouldn’t mind if they took his company and such but he really should, especially for his family. I doubt those Zhangs would stop just because they were then better than them, if they thought they were a threat, they’d surely ruin their family.
