"Lin Ye..."
Li Fei frowned, clearly surprised.
But quickly, she understood...
With her understanding of Li Minghui, it wasn’t hard to figure out what had happened.
It seed that Li Minghui had gone to the Secret Realm with Lin Ye, and as a result, went missing.
She had never ntioned her uncle’s family in front of Lin Ye...
Yu i was likely provoked by her son’s death, though she had been causing trouble before, it was always asured, leaving others frazzled.
But now she had lost it completely.
"Li Fei! You little bitch! It’s all because of you! If it wasn’t for you, Minghui wouldn’t have..."
"Slap!"
Without a word, Li Fei rushed up and slapped Yu i hard on the face.
The slap was just right, knocking Yu i unconscious, preventing her from spouting nonsense and causing trouble for Lin Ye.
"You..."
Her uncle hurried to support his wife, glaring angrily at Li Fei.
However, Li Fei didn’t spare him a glance and simply left with her phone.
...
"Don’t worry, I’m fine, just consider today as a day off."
Lin Ye replied to Li Fei’s ssage.
Lin Ye wasn’t surprised that Li Fei found out about this so quickly, considering that one of the four who were forever trapped in the Secret Realm was her cousin.
So the first thing Li Fei did upon hearing the news was to ensure Lin Ye’s safety.
Knowing Lin Ye was safe made her breathe a sigh of relief.
After assuring her, Lin Ye was about to put down the phone when he received another call.
It was from his teacher, Chen Daosheng.
Lin Ye knew it had to be a classmate who saw him and gossiped in the school group chat.
Although Chen Daosheng was no longer a school teacher, he was still in the group, probably saw it, and called to inquire.
"Hello, Teacher Chen." Lin Ye answered the call without much thought.
"Lin Ye, how are you doing now? Why not co and stay with for a while?" Chen Daosheng said directly.
These words caught Lin Ye a bit by surprise.
Chen Daosheng likely knew that Gao Wei was on Lin Ye’s team list.
He was clearly worried that Lin Ye might face revenge from the Gao Family.
Even though there’s no evidence to prove whether the deaths of Gao Wei and the other three were intentionally caused by Lin Ye, no one could control how the Gao Family might think.
Though it’s unimaginable for Lin Ye, a Healer, to kill four combat Professionals... what if?
In extre cases, the Gao Family might not care whether Lin Ye was innocent and simply want him to perish as well, which wouldn’t be surprising.
Chen Daosheng inviting Lin Ye to stay with him was rely to protect him.
Although his Professional level was only slightly over Level 20, it was still better than Lin Ye being alone.
"Teacher Chen, don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself." Lin Ye promptly declined Chen Daosheng’s kind offer.
Lin Ye didn’t want Chen Daosheng to get targeted by the Gao Family because of this.
At worst, he could just hang around the church day and night; there were plenty of holess people there.
Could the Gao Family be so brazen as to cause trouble in a church?
This wasn’t sothing Lin Ye hadn’t done in his past life...
Back then, when he was bullied by Gao Wei’s lackeys, it was Liu Qingshan who stood up for him.
After confirming there were no problems, Chen Daosheng finally hung up the phone.
Lin Ye couldn’t help but sigh.
Chen Daosheng truly was a good person, but because of this, he struggled in the group of Professionals.
Without enough strength and being neither shrewd nor with a dark heart, it’s hard to go far.
But it was also because of Chen Daosheng’s nature that he had pulled Lin Ye out of his downfall and despair in his past life.
"Is there sothing going on?" Zhang Ruiqi asked.
Clearly, he noticed that the caller seed concerned about Lin Ye.
"Oh... that was my teacher." Lin Ye replied casually.
Zhang Ruiqi nodded slightly.
But Lin Ye seed to think of sothing, suddenly saying, "Brother Zhang, do you think my teacher might work at the Professional Center?"
This took Zhang Ruiqi by surprise...
But imdiately, he patted his chest and agreed.
"No problem! What a small matter! I’m just short of people here, tell him to co find !"
To have such a good opportunity to build another layer of connection with Lin Ye, Zhang Ruiqi couldn’t be happier!
What’s a re job anyway?
After all, it’s not like he’d be the one paying the salary.
"Thank you so much, Brother Zhang!" Lin Ye was imnsely grateful.
In fact, he knew Zhang Ruiqi saw his potential and wanted to invest early.
But this was perfectly normal; otherwise, who would help you out of the blue without any ties?
Not to ntion Zhang Ruiqi, in Lin Ye’s past life, after becoming famous, he would help those Professionals with lowly backgrounds but with potential.
Firstly, to make up for his past regrets, and secondly, to build good ties.
"By the way, don’t worry about the Gao Family, I’ll contact Bishop Liu and go talk to Gao Heming together." Zhang Ruiqi said nonchalantly.
Lin Ye nodded heavily, saying, "With Brother Zhang’s help, I certainly won’t forget your kindness, big brother!"
"Oh! Since we’re brothers now, there’s no need to be so formal!" Zhang Ruiqi waved dismissively, seemingly indifferent, but the slight hint of joy in his brow betrayed his thoughts.
Just a small favor garnered such a promise from Lin Ye, he thought it was worth it!
Lin Ye saw through but didn’t point it out; so things are just that way, if the world is only about objectives, then it’s just naked interest relationships.
There’s a saying that noble n judge by actions, not intent, which is roughly the case here.
...
That night, the Gao Family mansion was brightly lit.
In a certain room, Yu i and her husband stood not far from a large desk, both quite agitated.
And sitting on the other side of the desk was, naturally, the Patriarch of the Gao Family, Gao Heming.
"You an Gao Wei and the others followed Lin Ye into the Secret Realm with the intent to teach him a lesson?" Gao Heming’s eyes were bloodshot, asking in a deep voice.
"That’s right! That’s exactly it! Patriarch Gao, you must seek justice for the children! They only wanted to teach Lin Ye a lesson, and yet..." Yu i cried.
Gao Heming’s expression was extrely grim.
The death of Gao Wei was a considerable blow to him.
After all, Gao Wei was being grood as his successor...
Yet he died inexplicably inside the Secret Realm, and he could not swallow this!
To get to the bottom of this, he had already sent soone to investigate Lin Ye’s background, though no information had co back yet.
Unexpectedly, Yu i and her husband had co to him first.
"I won’t let this matter rest!" Gao Heming clenched his fists.
Even if Lin Ye was innocent, he wanted Lin Ye to pay with his life!
Since his son was left in the Secret Realm, he would not allow the others to survive!
"Patriarch, the overall head of the Professional Center, Zhang Ruiqi, just sent a letter with Bishop Liu Qingshan from the church, requesting a eting with you tomorrow!" At that mont, the butler spoke up.
"They...?" Gao Heming was puzzled.
What could possibly rit these two coming to see him together?
"Is it because of today’s incident?" Gao Heming asked.
The butler nodded.
Gao Heming frowned instantly. He didn’t think the two were coming to offer condolences for Gao Wei’s death.
With their relationship, at most they’d send a wreath on the day of Gao Wei’s funeral.
The only possibility then...
"Who exactly is this Lin Ye, that he can prompt these two to pressure ?"
He couldn’t help but feel a bit troubled.
