Chapter 3850: Reject

After hearing this, Patriarch Chen couldn’t help but have a look of astonishment on his face, as if he was shocked by his words. He was about to speak when he saw his father’s eyes had narrowed and swept towards him. So, he sat silently and didn’t speak.

The Chen family Old Predecessor shook his head and said: “Ai, it’s not like you don’t know me. I don’t have any big ambitions in life, and as an old man, I just enjoy playing with my grandchildren. I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you with this matter.”

Upon hearing this, the Sun family Old Predecessor felt his heart sink and he said: “Old Brother, are you not satisfied with the conditions that I have proposed?”

“Hahaha, no no no.” He waved his hand and said with a smile: “It’s that I am powerless! This matter is difficult to handle and I can’t handle it.”

The Sun family Old Predecessor looked at him deeply when he heard this. He didn’t want to just leave like this, so he asked again: “Old Brother, you really won’t consider it? Even if you are not thinking for yourself, you should also think of your family clan and the younger generations of the family clan. If your son becomes the Eastern District City Lord, the status of the Chen family will rise even more and you will be even more influential than you are now.”

The Chen family Old Predecessor shook his head and waved his hands: “There is really nothing I can do about this matter, I am powerless.” He paused, then looked at him and said: “However, we have after all been friends for many years, so I will remind you. You should think twice about this matter before you act. Don’t act impulsively, lest you regret it later.”

Having heard what the Chen family Old Predecessor had to say, there was no reason to stay anymore. So, he stood up and said: “In that case, I will leave first. Thank you Old Brother for your advice. However, I am unable to back down from this matter. Farewell.’

After he watched him turn around and strode out, Patriarch Chen stood up and asked: “Father, why did you reject his offer? If this matter can be accomplished, it will be of great benefit to our Chen family and not harmful at all!”

Upon hearing this, the Chen family Old Predecessor glanced at him and shook his head: “You are still young. You only see the surface of things, you don’t have long-term vision.”

He wasn’t in a hurry to go back to rest. Instead, he sat down and motioned for him to sit down as well, then took a sip of tea and said: “You don’t know what kind of man this Sun Old Predecessor is, but would I not know? If he was sure of success, why would he ask us for help? What’s more, I’ve heard of those people he wants to deal with. Their strength is not weak, and if the people from the Immortal Sect didn’t pursue them at that time, they must have feared them. If they are people that even the Immortal Sect are afraid of, why should we rush forward to die?”

After listening to his father’s words, Patriarch Chen pondered for a while then asked: “Father, are those people really so powerful?”

“I don’t know whether they are powerful or not, but we should err on the side of caution. Although our Chen family clan is not considered the top family in this city, no one dares to bully us easily either. We should be content and know our limits. Cakes do not fall from the sky for no reason. Always remember the greater the advantages, the greater the disadvantages.”

“Yes, I will remember that, Father.” Patriarch Chen was a little shocked. He looked at his father who was smiling and sighed inwardly: He was still far inferior compared to his father!

After a while, he asked again: “Father, should we find out what happened to the

Sun family?”

“No need.”

Patriarch Chen shook his head: “No matter what happened, we will know when the time comes. Since we don’t want to get involved with their affairs, there is no need to investigate their affairs.”

“Yes.” Patriarch Chen responded.

“I’m going back to rest.” the Chen family Old Patriarch said, then got up and walked out..
