Chapter 1695: Chapter 1693-sun Jingyi’s troubles

He was afraid that Chentian would take things too hard, so he decided not to ask him about his injuries. He wanted to let Chentian calm down and think things through before coming back to the house!

However, the noble House meeting was about to begin, and gonggao had to call his grandson, Chentian, no matter what. He’d always brought his grandson to the meetings in the past, and Chentian was his pride and joy-he was one of the stronger practitioners among the younger generation.

But this year, he had to bring Chendi-he was afraid that Chentian would feel bad about it, so he wanted to bring Chentian as well! Gonggao had high hopes for Chentian, but he didn’t really like Chendi!

Even though Chentian was injured, Chendi still wasn’t favored-he only received more attention from gonggao than before, but he still didn’t have the luxury of spending money like Chentian did. His pocket money was still pitifully small.

Of course, there was a reason why gonggao didn’t like Chendi.

Before the noble House meeting, gonggao called Chentian.

“Grandpa?” Wu Chengtian didn’t think that his grandfather would call at this time. He was afraid that his grandfather would call to ask about his injury, and he really couldn’t tell him anything because Lin Yi told him to keep it a secret. He couldn’t say much even in front of his grandfather.

But his grandfather didn’t call him after that, and he let out a breath of relief. He didn’t expect the phone call to come right before the noble House meeting, and he had to be careful,”Grandpa, what’s the matter?”

“Chentian, how have you been? Are you alright?” Chentian’s careful voice made gonggao’s heart ache-he thought that Chentian was afraid of losing his love after losing his strength! Gonggao quickly said,”Chentian, you’re a physical practitioner, don’t be discouraged. It’s okay if your meridians are injured, as long as your hands aren’t injured, you can still practice house Wu’s Iron Fist Arts. As for your meridians, Grandpa will get someone to ask for a Meridian opening elixir for you …”

“Grandpa … I …” Chentian didn’t expect his Grandpa to say that, and he felt even more bitter. He wanted to tell gonggao that he was fine, that he had recovered, that he was an early phase Mystic now, and that he was about to break through to late phase peak!

But his rationality stopped him from doing that. He knew that if he didn’t say it now, his Grandpa would only be sad for a short while, but if he said it, it would affect Lin Yi’s big plan!

“Alright, Chentian, don’t be sad, don’t be discouraged. The noble House meeting is about to begin, how’s that? Are you in the mood to go with me?” Gonggao asked.

“I …” Chentian didn’t know how to answer.

“It’s fine, I’ll bring Wu Chendi with me this time, you come too? With Grandpa here, no one will dare to laugh at you!” “No matter what, I’m still a Mystic mid Phase-I’m still one of the top masters in the noble House!” Gonggao said.

“Thank you, Grandpa … But I won’t be going for now …” Chentian said.

“Alright, don’t think too much, and don’t have any psychological burden!” “Then I’ll hang up first,” gonggao said. “Rest in peace!”

“Alright! But Grandpa, don’t worry, I won’t let you down! I will become your pride. Please remember my words, I will do as I say!” Chentian couldn’t say too much, so he just gave a hint.

“Hehe, I’ll remember that! I’ll be waiting for this day to come!” Gonggao smiled-Chentian seemed to be in a good mood, and that made him feel at ease. He’d been worried that Chentian wouldn’t be able to take it and do something extreme, but Chentian seemed to have regained his confidence!

After hanging up, Chentian let out a breath of relief and looked at Lin Yi,”Boss, come on, I want to level up, I want strength! I’m going to shine in the noble House meeting this time and make house Wu one of the top noble houses!”

“Come on!” Lin Yi smiled and placed his hand on Chentian’s meridians, channeling his art of Dragon mastery. Chentian, on the other hand, quickly channeled his practitioner’s Arts …

Jingyi wasn’t having a good time either-after house sun found out about Chentian’s injury, they didn’t want to marry Jingyi off to him anymore, and the Head of House sun had mentioned it to gonggao, but he didn’t say anything about it.

He knew that letting Jingyi marry a cripple like Chentian was putting him in a difficult position, and he seemed to have heard from Chentian that Jingyi had some sort of relationship with his boss, Lin Yi. He didn’t mind it too much and just laughed it off.

Even if he couldn’t marry into house sun now, he couldn’t make an enemy of house sun, and gonggao’s compromise made the old man feel a little embarrassed. He agreed to help gonggao at the meeting!

And so, gonggao thought that it was a good deal, and he didn’t mention it to Chentian at all-Chentian had already told him that he’d given up on Jingyi, so what was the point of gonggao bringing it up?

And so, gonggao had gotten a bargain! And so, while gonggao wasn’t in a good mood about Chentian’s injury, he was able to stay calm after what happened at the noble House meeting.

At first, when house sun told her that they’d canceled their engagement with Chentian, she wasn’t too happy about it-Chentian had already given up on her and became Lin Yi’s follower, and so she didn’t care about the engagement at all.

Of course, that wasn’t the main problem-the main problem was that house sun wanted to marry Jingyi off to another Noble House, for the benefit of the house!

“Jingyi, I’ve already signed you up for the noble House meeting this time. Come with me to the meeting, and see if there are any young talents there, and I’ll find you a husband!” It was old man sun-he called personally to get Jingyi back to house sun.

“Grandpa, I’ve told my family before that I have a boyfriend and someone I like. I want to live my own life, so please don’t force me. I don’t care about wealth, I just want to live a quiet life.” Sun Jingyi hesitated and rejected,”I don’t want to be a sacrifice for a family marriage!”
