Chapter 36 - Grandfather
In the area where the superior cla.s.s of the Profound Pract.i.tioner Academy stayed there was a big name plate with Xue Dwelling written on it. This courtyard was the third courtyard to the right of the middle-most one and its name plate was a white board with black words on it: black and white, very simple.
However, this courtyard was shut which meant that the master was away.
At this moment, a girl in a white uniform was walking outside the courtyard door. She was pretty, and she looked a little bit like Lin Haoxue.
Returning to the academy, this was the scene Lin Haoxue saw.
"Sister? You're back?" How did your cultivation go?" Seeing this girl, Lin Haoxue ran toward her and charmingly pulled her into a warm embrace. She said, "It's been more than two months since we last met and now you're even more beautiful!"
This girl in white was precisely Lin Ruoxue. The only person who could make Lin Haoxue act this way was her sister, Lin Ruoxue. She was one year older than Shen Molian, and of course, she was more mature than her as well. She wasn't a cold beauty like Shen Molian, Lin Ruoxue had a pure and holy aura about her.
"Everything is going well," Lin Ruoxue looked at Lin Haoxue and said. She could clearly feel that her younger sister's strength was greater than hers now. She had heard that her younger sister had challenged Wu s.h.i.+yue. While she was happy for her, she also felt a little depressed. She said, "Haoxue, you've grown up."
"Of course! I grew up a long time ago." Lin Haoxue laughed and said, "Only you and grandpa always treat me like a child."
"Grandfather…" She heard Lin Haoxue mention him and Lin Ruoxue seemed to remember something. Suddenly, her face turned pale and said, "I came here because I got a message from home. Something has happened to our grandfather."
"Why did something happen to grandfather?" Could it be that somebody dared to hurt him?" Lin Haoxue's face turned pale as well. Back then Mister Ai had already shown that he was on our family's side... Under such circ.u.mstances, how dare somebody challenge our Lin family! If this was true, then was the deal I had with him before even necessary?
"I'm not quite sure what happened either. When I came back, a junior told me that a young servant girl had delivered a message. I suppose that she was Cui Lan. She said that our grandfather suddenly fainted and that she didn't know what caused it.
"Now since neither of us know what's going on, we should go home right away." Lin Haoxue calmed down and her expression had turned cold. She said, "Who dares to hurt my grandpa? Humph!"
Lin Ruoxue was scared of her young sister's look right now since she never saw Lin Haoxue like this before. She had never expected that her younger sister could be so aggressive and mean.
Lin Ruoxue didn't know, nor anybody knew how much this word grandfather really meant to her. In her previous life, her grandfather was her only warmth the only person she could depend on. That deep relations.h.i.+p was already carved in her veins and she had brought her mentality from her previous life to this new one.
On the way back home, Lin Haoxue's heart couldn't calm down as she recalled her grandfather from her previous life.
In Lin Haoxue's previous life, Lin Haoxue had a grandfather. He was her only close relative and his name was Lin Xiaoyun. He was the leader of Dark Night. Dark Night, was a well-known underworld organization. It was under this organization that their family owned a lot of properties. All of them were amazingly influential, and all of their properties were rented out to only the most affluent guests. Whoever wanted to keep such places under their own control had to have absolute boldness when doing business. Lin Xiaoyun was just such a person. He had enough tricks, boldness, and wisdom to handle things; however, he had one weak spot, and that was his granddaughter, Lin Haoxue.
Lin Haoxue's parents pa.s.sed away very early, and therefore she relied on her grandfather and grew up. Lin Xiaoyun dearly loved his only granddaughter. But because their lives were always filled with different kinds of danger, he was strict with Lin Haoxue. From her childhood, he made her learn many different things and practice different kinds of skills. Business, socialization, self-protection, the art of war, and so on… He asked her to do everything perfectly. Lin Haoxue was sensible so she never whined about her hards.h.i.+ps and just kept practicing. She wanted to be able to be the best in everything and reach her grandfather's standard, and this was what created Lin Haoxue's tenacious character.
Lin Xiaoyun asked professionals to make a bracelet which specialized in self-protection. The destruction of this bracelet had the same amount of power as a ten ton bomb; its power was simply jaw-dropping. Furthermore, this bracelet formed a small protective barrier when it unleashed its destructive power. This barrier was just enough to cover one person, and of course, that would be its master. The first pearl of the bracelet was the power switch, and because it was too dangerous, Lin Xiaoyun reminder her again and again to only use it when it was absolutely essential.
However, when she was twenty years old and on the sixty-fifth birthday of her grandfather, she was forced to activate it.
On that day, Lin Haoxue worked especially hard. She had finished her training in advance and got the permission to leave the devil training camp from her coach. She left the camp and went to visit her grandfather who she hadn't met in a long time. On her way home from the camp, Lin Haoxue's thoughts came in quick succession. She couldn't help but picture her grandfather's happy face when he realized that she had come back to celebrate his birthday, and she laughed happily.
Just when she was almost home, her car was suddenly blocked.
"Uncle Liang, why are you blocking my way?" Lin Haoxue looked at this older guy with confusion.
"Second Young Miss, Grandmaster had arranged a new mission for you. We have to go to Singapore to check on our business."
"Now? But it's grandfather's birthday today."
"Grandmaster said that as long as you can finish the mission he has a.s.signed, it would be the best gift you can get for him."
"Fine, I'll listen to grandfather then." Lin Haoxue responded hopelessly. "Grandfather is always so stubborn."
"Since Second Young Miss isn't against it, let's go." The older man said.
"Alright." Lin Haoxue into another car and sat in the front pa.s.senger seat. Uncle Liang drover while three other men in black sat in the back.
When the car was pa.s.sing through a supermarket, Lin Haoxue asked them to pull over and buy her some water as she was thirst. She thought of this excuse as earlier it was obvious they were in a rush for some reason. Since Uncle Liang always dearly doted on her, he didn't think much and went to buy her water.
"Go home." Seeing that Uncle Liang had left, Lin Haoxue's expressions suddenly changed. Her att.i.tude was tough like she was ordering them around.
"No." Those men in black rejected her instantly.
"What if I insist on leaving?" Lin Haoxue smiled coldly and knocked them out in a flash.
Even if Uncle Liang had already reminded them, and even if they were already being cautious, they still underestimated Lin Haoxue. Lin Haoxue had been practicing martial arts ever since she was young, and therefore all her actions were almost like instinct to her. Quickly, Lin Haoxue threw the three of them out of the car.
Lin Haoxue stole the car and drove all the way back to her house. Her instinct told her that there must be something bad happening to her grandfather. Grandfather always wanted her to celebrate his birthday with him, therefore, there must be some danger which is why he asked Uncle Liang to take her away.
As expected, just when she was driving the car back to her house, she saw this scene…
What Lin Haoxue saw broke her heart: there were a lot of men in black carrying guns and standing in the living room of Lin family's residence. She knew most of these people, and they were all pointing their guns in the same direction, all at one person, an old man.
The old man had a whole head of gray hair, and he was crawling under his big chair. It was obvious that he was shot and hurt badly, and both of his legs had multiple gun-shot wounds. His legs were bleeding so badly that he wasn't able to stand up. However, even if he was badly injured, he was still trying to hand on and crawl to safety with both of his arms.
"Grandfather!" Her grandfather who was always highly respected was now crawling on the ground in the living room, his eyes were filled with coldness and precision, but after seeing his granddaughter arrive, he was very disappointed. Lin Haoxue's heart was extremely hurt so much so that she couldn't even cry out. She ran to her grandfather and tried to lift him up. Her grandfather was such an outstanding person and now he had turned out like this.
"Get out! Who let you come back home?" Lin Xiaoyun tried his best to let go of her hands, and his eyes were filled with desperation. He wasn't scared of death, but he was afraid of his granddaughter would get hurt.
Lin Haoxue stood up slowly, and looked at the young man playing with his gun. Lin Haoxue knew him, he was Jiang Hanling someone who her grandfather had regarded as very importantly. He was ten years older than Lin Haoxue and had been close friends with her since she was very young. Her grandfather even joked that he would let her marry him, and she was always shy about the matter.
But now, this was the person who wanted to hurt her beloved grandfather.
"It's you who wants to kill my grandfather?" Lin Haoxue asked him in a low voice. Even though he had already prepared in his mind that she would going to ask, he still didn't dare to look into Lin Haoxue's eyes.
"Yes." Jiang Hanling responded in a low voice.
Since he had already admitted it, what else could she say? Yell and scold him? That would accomplish nothing, and Lin Haoxue couldn't do such a thing. All she could blame was that the human heart was too hard to predict.
"It's the way of the world that the young replace the old, you shouldn't blame me." Jiang Hanling's voice was as cold as the expression on his face.
"It's the way of the world that the young replace the old? Ha! Let's go to h.e.l.l together then!" Lin Haoxue suddenly smiled. At the same time as she was talking, she had slowly taken off her bracelet and pressed those invisible b.u.t.tons. She left the bracelet next to her grandfather and stepped away.
"Haoxue, you're insane." n.o.body noticed, but Lin Xiaoyun had clearly seen what her granddaughter was doing. He knew exactly what would happen.
"Grandpa, live well! I believe that Uncle Liang will take care of everything." Lin Haoxue said as tears fell down on her cheeks. "I'm just going to another world."
"Boom!" A loud noise and all of a sudden the Lin Family's house turned into a big fireball. In a flash, the whole building was destroyed.
Grandpa, I know that you're worried about me and that you wanted to protect me. When you sensed the danger, the first thing you thought of was to send me away to keep me safe. However, you didn't know that I don't want you to die either. I'd rather sacrifice my life to let you live. This is the last thoughts that had run through her mind before she lost consciousness.
When she woke up again, she was here in this world. And in this world, she again felt love and concern from her grandfather.
Therefore, no matter what life she had, the relations.h.i.+p Lin Haoxue had with grandfather was very deep. Now that she heard something bad had happened to her grandfather, how would she not feel hurried and concerned?
