Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1415 – Grandpa, I’m Sorry!

“Yutian bro, rest assured, I’ll talk to the Suns…. I heard that Sun Jingyi is in Songshan city. Let me try talking to her….” Song Lingshan was determined to convince Sun Jingyi to heal Chen Yutian’s injury!

“Okay, if things didn’t go well, don’t force her.” Chen Yutian continued. “Lingshan, I need to rest for a bit…”

“Sure… I’ll leave first…” Song Lingshan nodded and left the room- she didn’t want to disturb Chen Yutian’s rest.

Chen Yutian, on the other hand, took out his phone when Song Lingshan left the room and called his grandfather.

“Yutian, why are you calling grandpa again? Did you breakthrough again?” Grandpa Chen was delighted beyond belief when he learned that Yutian stepped into the world of mystic class- it was like a dream come true! House Chen would surely prosper with a grandchild this strong- they didn’t need the ancient sect to maintain their position in the noble houses anymore.

Hence, after picking the phone, Grandpa Chen cracked a joke. Of course, he knew that it was impossible for Chen Yutian to a breakthrough in such a short period of time, but there was no harm at cracking a joke, was there?!

Chen Yutian’s face became sour when he heard the joke.

He didn’t know how to start- he couldn’t bear to ruin his grandpa’s mood. His grandpa had been dreaming about all the benefits and auspicious events that would be happening to House Chen in the future!

Grandpa Chen realized something was wrong when he heard nothing from the other side of the call, stunned. ” Chen Yutian, are you okay?”

“Grandpa…. I….” Chen Yutian couldn’t speak as in like there was a bone in his throat, stopping him from speaking.

“Yutian, what’s wrong? Don’t scare grandpa.” Grandpa Chen heard the shivering tone in Chen Yutian’s voice as he asked.

“Grandpa… I lost my strength… I was injured, and all my meridians are all broken!” Chen Yutian clenched his teeth and let the cats out of the bag. “I’m bedridden in the hospital now with both my legs broken…”

“WHAT!” Grandpa Chen jumped up from the chair when he heard the news; he almost threw the phone out as he screamed! His legs were like jelly when he stood up- he staggered to his feet, swaying a little and finally dropped back to the chair. “Yutian…. What did you say? Were you injured? Who did this to you? What brutality?”

Grandpa Chen was a man with countless experiences. Although he was overwhelmed by this news, he still had his chills- he needed to learn the reasons behind this tragedy!

“Grandpa… Don’t get too worked up…” Chen Yutian let out a breath of relief. “It’s like this…..”

Chen Yutian told Grandpa Chen the whole story from head to toe honestly without hiding any information. His feelings towards Song Lingshan were no news to Grandpa Chen, so for him to stand up for her. Grandpa Chen didn’t find this uncommon…

“You’re saying that you did this all for Song Lingshan and Lin Yi, is that right?” Grandpa Chen couldn’t help but sigh. “Logically speaking, what you did is not wrong; a man of honor knows that there are things that must be done, and things must not be done. Yes, your strength was given by Lin Yi; helping him to solve some of his problems is natural, but you should know this phrase. One has to act according to one’s capability and cut one’s coat according to one’s cloth…. You…were just too aggressive…”

Grandpa Chen didn’t blame Chen Yutian for the action after knowing the reason. After all, what he did was nothing wrong; he was too aggressive and didn’t consider the huge consequences waiting behind the action. Chen Yutian was House Chen’s only hope, and now, their hope was shattered. Worse come to worst, they made House Yu an enemy!

With Grandpa Chen’s intelligence, it was not hard to predict Yu Shuixing’s reaction towards this event- he knew that Yu Shuixing would surely make false countercharge at them! Song Lingshan’s and Yu Feng’s engagement was no secret to Grandpa Chen, he called Chen Yutian when he was told about the engagement but to learn that Chen Yutian had already given up pursuing Song Lingshan, so he didn’t comment about it.

Who knew that there was actually another factor behind the story! Song Lingshan loved Lin Yi!

Lin Yi, naturally, Grandpa Chen had heard of this name, it was not unfamiliar at all!

The moment Lin Yi moved to the Chu Mengyao’s villa and became the bodyguard of the Miss, Grandpa Chen was aware of his existence. However, at that moment, Grandpa Chen didn’t put Lin Yi in his eyes- he didn’t see what a mere bodyguard could do until he became more and more obvious in sight. Fighting House Yu to hidden House Zhao, offending House Xiao, Jin Zhongmen to even hidden House Pi!

One could say that Lin Yi had offended most of the big names. Observing from the dark was enough to send shivers down his spine. Offending one of the houses was enough to suffer, let alone Lin Yi offended all of them! However, Lin Yi was not suffering from living hell at all. In fact, he was living a happy-go-lucky life, a life better than anyone one here. It was so unimaginable!

Grandpa Chen had no idea how this guy could be unharmed even after offending so many powerful forces from above. It defied logic itself, didn’t it? Oppositely, the people who were offended by Lin Yi couldn’t do anything against him- they were all retreating and staying as low as possible. Until recently, two masters of House Pi and Jin Zhongmen’s earth-class master were killed by Lin Yi’s follower. To see such a thing as shock registered on Grandpa Chen’s face. He realized that Lin Yi was no simple man!

A lowly bodyguard, a mere follower, Grandpa Chen never put Lin Yi in his eyes, but he realized that his judgment was wrong. He couldn’t believe Chu Pengzhan found someone this strong, it was impossible!

Although Chen Yutian didn’t say how Lin Yi help him to level up, no matter what, it was still an impressive ability- this made Grandpa Chen wonder Lin Yi’s origin. Could he be one of the people from the ancient sect?

However, even if he was from the ancient sect, he had never heard of this ability before. How could he level up someone with this insane speed? Lin Yi was just a mid-phase mystic class master himself, how did he make people mystic class? Besides, it was not one but two at a time, this was unbelievable!

No matter how powerful Lin Yi was- this had nothing to do with Grandpa Chen; he was no people from House Chen, so what he concerned was Chen Yutian and the future of House Chen!

“Grandpa, I’m sorry….” Chen Yutian knew how painful it was for his grandfather- he was in pain as well, wasn’t he? However, what had happened was in the past; it couldn’t be changed.

“Yutian. As things stood, House Chen is probably going to be downgraded in the next noble house meeting; we will probably be kicked out of the list of the noble house.” Grandpa Chen had to accept the reality that was right in front of him; his face became a few years older suddenly! Although Grandpa Chen had already considered the worst outcome previously, Chen Yutian’s breakthrough gave him hope! Things might look the same like before, but after having hope and had it shattered again, it was unbearable, how was that the same?
