180: Chapter 158: I’ll Take You Away 180: Chapter 158: I’ll Take You Away At that moment, within the hall of the backyard, the Lin Family’s people were seated together, and among them, Lin Yi and Aunt Wang were also present. Lin Shu, the head of the Lin Family, besides Lin Shu, there were also several other core family members. However, these people all looked troubled, especially Lin Shu, who sat helplessly in his chair. “You tell me, why did you have to go to Linchuan?” Lin Shu said coldly, glancing at the silent Lin Yi. “Now, not only is the matter unresolved, but you’ve also ended up hitting the other party’s person.” Lin Yi had already told Lin Shu about the incident in Linchuan, but she had slightly altered the story— the punching was done by Aunt Wang, and no one else; as for the matter of Li Xinshan’s heirloom being disabled, Lin Yi kept it hidden. For Lin Shu, this daughter truly did not give him peace of mind. He and the Patriarch of the Li family were very close. The two had served together in the military during their youth, experiencing hardships and bearing arms together, forming a strong relationship. Later, each became the head of their respective families. Although their interactions diminished due to business interests, their friendship remained. Subsequently, he and the Li Family had signed a marriage agreement, which not only could enhance relations between the two families but also bind the Lin and Li families more tightly in terms of interests. This mutually beneficial arrangement had been utterly spoiled by Lin Yi. Lin Shu was a man who greatly valued face. What Lin Yi had done not only could ruin his face publicly, but also, in terms of friendship, the relationship between the Lin and Li families might plummet to rock bottom. “Dad, I don’t want to marry him,” Lin Yi explained. “You know what kind of person Li Xinshan is; he tried to rape me in Linchuan.” “No, this isn’t for you to decide,” Lin Shu frowned. “Prepare to accompany me to the Li Family to apologize.” Lin Yi was extremely frustrated. Lin Shu was too stubborn, valuing his own reputation and initial promise above everything else. At that moment, another person also spoke up: “Miss, for the sake of the family’s interests, please make this sacrifice for yourself. The marriage alliance with the Li Family can bring great benefits to our family.” “Why must my happiness be sacrificed for the sake of benefiting the family?” Lin Yi suddenly said stubbornly, her beautiful eyes full of determination, as she also wanted to fight for her own happiness. Aunt Wang sighed from behind. “Because you bear the Lin surname, you are my, Lin Shu’s, daughter.” Lin Shu suddenly snorted coldly, causing Lin Yi’s eyes to dim. Just then, a commotion could be heard from outside. “What’s going on?” Lin Shu frowned. “Reporting to the family head, someone is forcing their way into our Lin Family,” a person entered and reported. “But we have already intercepted them.” Lin Shu nodded and did not seem concerned, for the Four Great Stewards were also there, and the intruders could not break through. “Once you capture them, bring them to me. I want to see who it is.” “Yes, family head,” the person left. Lin Shu then turned back to Lin Yi and spoke lightly, “Now that you are back, stop going to Linchuan. This afternoon, accompany me to visit the Li Family to settle the marriage issue.” Lin Yi hung her head, remaining silent, but in her mind, Li Chen’s mischievous smile resurfaced, as if his calls of “beautiful wife” were still ringing in her ears. Farewell, my beloved. Lin Yi felt a pang in her heart; perhaps, she would resign herself to her fate, marry into the Li Family, and then suffer under that pervert. Aunt Wang stood behind Lin Yi, unsure how to begin consoling her. The turn of events was indeed too abrupt; although she had anticipated this day might come, when the situation indeed unfolded, she was still utterly at a loss. Just as the meeting was about to adjourn, the disturbance outside not only did not cease but grew even louder, accompanied by screams. “Can’t even subdue one person?” Lin Shu frowned. “Lin Yue, you take some men and capture them.” “Yes!” Lin Yue immediately went out and headed directly to the central courtyard with his men. Upon arriving at the central courtyard with his men, Lin Yue saw the four stewards lying on the ground and was stunned on the spot. Then, looking up and seeing Li Chen’s icy gaze, he couldn’t help but shudder. Making eye contact felt like being at the North Pole! Seeing the other party walking towards him, Lin Yue unconsciously took a step back. As Li Chen advanced, he retreated. The others didn’t dare to approach either, as the four stewards lay on the ground groaning, beaten; their strength was even weaker than the stewards’, how could they possibly win against the opponent? Li Chen indifferently walked towards the back courtyard, and those people didn’t dare to intercept him, retreating one after another. And just like that, Li Chen reached the back courtyard. A disturbance reached the hall. Lin Shu and others heard the noise and couldn’t help but look over, only to see Lin Yue and others forming a semicircle around one person. But why were Lin Yue and his men retreating? The group looked on in confusion, but suddenly, as Lin Yue and his men dispersed, Li Chen’s figure appeared. “Who is this?” Lin Shu and others were puzzled, while Aunt Wang, seeing Li Chen, was also filled with surprise. “Miss, look, the son-in-law has arrived,” Aunt Wang whispered in Lin Yi’s ear. In the midst of despair, Lin Yi, hearing about Li Chen, also lifted her head and then saw Li Chen surrounded by Lin Yue and his men. A moment of stupor flashed through her despairing eyes. Am I so desperate that I’m hallucinating now? Lin Yi felt a pang of bitterness, but why did this hallucination feel so real? From a distance, Li Chen saw Lin Yi, and a smile suddenly appeared on his cold face. Seeing Li Chen’s smile, it felt to Lin Yi as if she had encountered sunlight, dispersing the gloom in her heart. Is it him? But why is he here? Lin Yi suddenly stood up. This wasn’t a hallucination. “How did you get here?” Lin Yi asked Li Chen. As Lin Yi spoke, it shocked Lin Shu and the others. She already had someone on the outside? “I’ve come to take you back,” Li Chen said with a slight smile, then without paying any heed to the others, he walked straight towards Lin Yi. In his gaze, all other people seemed non-existent, only Lin Yi mattered. “Aunt Wang!” Lin Shu shouted angrily, looking at Aunt Wang, why hadn’t she told me about all this? The others also watched as Li Chen walked over and arrived in front of Lin Yi. When Lin Yi heard Li Chen’s “come to take you back,” her heart softened instantly, and a smile blossomed on her face. Yes, she was willing to be with Li Chen. She was willing to go back with Li Chen. When someone is willing to cross mountains and seas for you, when someone is willing to face dangers for you, when someone is willing to give everything for you, yes, she too was willing to go with him. This life is dedicated to you alone; I devote my heart to you.
