My Wife is a Beautiful CEO - Chapter 212
Chapter 212-1: Compensation
When they returned to the campsite at the valley’s entrance, there was another dark gray helicopter parked on the ground. There were also several robust guards who each had a presence that could rival a Dragon Group member guarding the tent.
When Yang Chen followed Abbess Yun Miao into the tent, he saw that everyone from the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade was standing tidily in a row, and in front of them was a tall man in a deep green army uniform.
“This has been an arduous mission for all of you. There is no problem with the mission itself, but Broken Blade’s meticulous plot for betrayal and the involvement of dangerous characters had all become an onerous test for you all. I am glad that all of you have returned alive……”
This middle-aged male voice was heard by Yang Chen from afar, and he found it familiar.
When Abbess Yun Miao and her disciple walked closer and exchanged glances with the man in uniform, Yang Chen immediately recalled who this man was!
It was actually Lin Ruoxi’s grandfather, Lin Zhiguo!
When Lin Zhiguo saw Yang Chen, he wasn’t too surprised, but when he saw the unenthusiastic Yun Miao and the slightly excited Hui Lin, he was pleasantly surprised.
“You’ve come.” Lin Zhiguo looked at Yun Miao and spoke like it was both a question and a statement.
In a corner behind Lin Zhiguo, Gray Robe who wore a gray-colored robe also noticed Yun Miao, and he seemed relieved.
Yun Miao looked at Lin Zhiguo with complicated emotions, nodded, then said to the others, “All of you may leave, I have something to discuss with the general.”
Sky Dragon and the others didn’t want to leave as they were curious as to why the general and Abbess Yun Miao had such strange expressions when looking at each other, but since they could tell that Lin Zhiguo approved of Yun Miao’s order, they had no choice but to resentfully leave the tent.
Thus, there was only Lin Zhiguo, his inseparable aide Gray Robe, Yang Chen, Hui Lin, and Abbess Yun Miao left in the tent.
It was awkward for Yang Chen as according to reason, this man who still looked pretty young was his wife’s grandfather, which meant he was also his grandfather. However, because Lin Ruoxi had a bad relationship with the Lin Family, Yang Chen also didn’t know how to face Lin Zhiguo.
If he bonds with him, his wife would be unhappy. Yet, it wouldn’t seem right for him to distance himself.
At this moment, Lin Zhiguo was sorrowfully checking Yun Miao’s condition, “Yun-er, it has been three years since we last met. You’re truly cruel, could it be that you aren’t willing to refuse this husband of yours in this lifetime?”
Husband!?
Yang Chen felt a headache incoming.
So it turns out that Abbess Yun Miao is Lin Zhiguo’s wife!? Which means that she’s the legal wife who chased Lin Ruoxi’s grandmother out of the Lin Family!?
But… since she has already taken the role of being the legal wife, why did she become a taoist nun!?
Yun Miao frowned and said, “Don’t address me like this. Also, I’ve already told you that if it wasn’t because Hui Lin was still a pitiful and lonely child, I’d have broken off all relations with you a long time ago.”
Hui Lin whose eyes were brimming with tears pouted her delicate lips. She had an aggrieved look on her face, “Grandma, are you really unwilling to forgive Grandpa? Even I don’t hate Grandpa, why won’t you forgive him? If we could go home together and live together, that would be such happiness.”
“Shut up! What does a brat like you know!?” Abbess Yun Miao suddenly issued a strict shout at Hui Lin, “You’re not allowed to call him Grandpa!”
“But you said that I can call him Grandpa in private, so it goes without saying that I can call him Grandpa……” Hui Lin tried to argue.
“No buts!” Abbess Yun Miao decisively said, “He’s not worthy to be called Grandpa by you. Think about your deceased father and mother, how can there be a father like him!? How can there be a grandfather like him!?”
At this point, Abbess Yun Miao was feeling very emotional, her eyes were red, like they would burst at any time.
Yang Chen who stood there listening was completely stunned!
What? It’s one thing for Abbess Yun Miao and Lin Zhiguo to be husband and wife, but Hui Lin is actually their granddaughter?
According to the details of their conversation, something seemed to have happened to Hui Lin’s parents because of Lin Zhiguo, which was why Hui Lin was brought up by Abbess Yun Miao, and Abbess Yun Miao was unwilling to forgive Lin Zhiguo.
Yang Chen felt a little sorry for this old handsome dude. Of his two women, one was dead and the other didn’t care about him. Of his two granddaughters, one was as beautiful like a fairy, while the other as pretty as an elf, yet neither would stay with him as one hated him and the other was managed by her grandmother.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen felt like he was doing a little better than Lin Zhiguo. At the very least, his women loved him quite a bit.
He couldn’t help laughing foolishly as he stood by the side.
Lin Zhiguo was distressed and had a headache. Hearing Yang Chen suddenly give out such a happy laugh, he immediately scolded, “Brat! What are you laughing for!? Are you ridiculing your elder!?”
“Ah?” Yang Chen realized he made a mistake as this was basically taking a jab at the old man. He stiffly smiled and replied, “No, my brain just wasn’t working, how could I dare to ridicule you?”
Chapter 212-2: Compensation
Abbess Yun Miao coldly sneered, “Lin Zhiguo, don’t rely on your old age to bully a young man like Yang Chen, he’s a lot stronger than you! If it wasn’t because of him, all of us would have died due to Broken Blade’s schemes! It would have been impossible to recover the Vairocana Dharma Body! It would also have been impossible to defeat the Blue Storm agents!”
Lin Zhiguo suppressed his anger and replied, “I concede to your statement, Tsunami has already reported to me what happened. However, even if he saved everyone and is a great hero, he can’t ridicule his elder!”
“What sort of elder are you? Yang Chen isn’t related to you at all!” Abbess Yun Miao spoke in defense of Yang Chen.
Lin Zhiguo wore a queer smile, “Yun-er, you stay at Shushan most of the time and don’t know what happens outside. This brat has incredible skills. Right now, he has genuinely become my grandson-in-law……”
When he said this, Abbess Yun Miao and Hui Lin were both staggered. They naturally wouldn’t think that Yang Chen was Hui Lin’s husband, even Hui Lin herself wouldn’t think that way, so the only explanation was……
“You’re saying… you’re saying he……” Abbess Yun Miao didn’t dare believe it, she spoke while pointing at Yang Chen with a trembling finger.
Hui Lin on the other hand seemed to generate intense curiosity as if she had found the new world, and she began to reevaluate Yang Chen.
Lin Zhiguo nodded and said, “That’s right, he is married to Ruoxi. Where you accept it or not, Ruoxi is directly related to our Lin Family. She’s my granddaughter and related to me by blood, and this stinking brat is naturally my grandson-in-law!”
Abbess Yun Miao returned to her senses, and had a mocking look in her eyes, “Lin Zhiguo, you’re truly something. Even that beautiful granddaughter of yours who doesn’t accept you as her grandfather has become a rope for you to increase your influence. You must have planned for them to get married for a long time.”
“I didn’t plan anything, I swear!” Lin Zhiguo replied.
Hearing Lin Zhiguo deny it without any hesitation, Yun Miao was taken aback. She understood Lin Zhiguo. This man could pull of many schemes, but he definitely wasn’t someone the type who would swear so easily.
“It really isn’t arranged by you?” Yun Miao hesitantly asked.
Lin Zhiguo shot a glance at Yang Chen. Seeing Yang Chen’s face that implied that this was none of his business, Lin Zhiguo became even more annoyed. He snorted and said, “Stinky brat, tell her what you had done yourself!”
Seeing Yun Miao and Hui Lin look at him so strangely, Yang Chen bitterly smiled as any lies he made would definitely have loopholes that they would uncover, so he said, “Actually, I was also pretty muddle-headed on that night. I was drunk, and bumped into Ruoxi in a bar. She was in a bad mood and drank a lot, and in the end…… That happened……”
That? What’s that? What does it mean? The innocent and kind-hearted Hui Lin was totally confused.
However, Abbess Yun Miao was an experienced person who understood the Lin Family’s rules clearly. She immediately grabbed onto her sword handle, and was itching to pull out her sword and take a few swings. She was angry from being disappointed by Yang Chen’s actions, “And to think you managed to cultivate Boundless Yearning Derivative Scripture to the eighth stage! How could you fail to exercise control over the desires between men and women!?”
“Erm… Abbess, just should understand just by looking at Hui Lin, Ruoxi isn’t any less beautiful than Hui Lin, I went to a bar to look for women, since I bumped into such a high quality one, why would I hold back for no reason!?” Yang Chen couldn’t deal with this accusation, and blurted out what actually happened!
“What!?” When Lin Zhiguo heard this, his eyes opened wide and he cursed, “You stinking brat! Do you think my granddaughter was the sort who worked as a prostitute in a bar!?”
“No no no…… How could I have the guts to say such a thing, old man? I’m just trying to say that I’m innocent!”
“You’ve already done what you did, what’s there to discuss about innocence for a man like you!?” Yun Miao retorted.
This was unacceptable to Yang Chen, he was about to continue explaining, but Lin Zhiguo suddenly asked, “Hold on a second! Yun-er, what did you just say!? Yang Chen is cultivating in what!?”
Abbess Yun Miao gradually calmed down. She looked at him sideways and said, “Boundless Yearning Derivation Scripture, and it’s even the eighth stage. Yang Chen is a direct disciple of Senior Brother Song!”
Lin Zhiguo was immediately dumbfounded, while the silent Gray Robe who stood behind Lin Zhiguo also looked at Yang Chen with shock that he couldn’t conceal.
“Sen… Senior Brother Song…… Has… has he been well?” Lin Zhiguo sincerely asked.
Yun Miao remained silent, then said to Hui Lin, “Hui Lin, tell him.”
Hui Lin obediently nodded. She opened her mouth and nearly said grandpa, but she immediately got scared and changed her words, “General, Yang Chen told us that Senior Uncle Song has already passed on many years ago……”
Listening to Hui Lin narrate the matters of the past she learned from Yang Chen, Lin Zhiguo was forcefully holding back his tears at the end of it.
“It was we who let Senior Brother Song down. It’s a pity that he would never ever be able to hear my apology.” Lin Zhiguo said in a depressed manner.
Yun Miao coldly glanced at him, “I have made a decision earlier. Since we can’t clear away the guilt we harbor towards Senior Brother Song, we will instead do everything in our power to compensate Senior Brother Song’s direct disciple, Yang Chen.”
“Compensate? In what way?” Lin Zhiguo looked up at Yun Miao, then turned to look at Yang Chen who was also bewildered.
Yun Miao’s lips formed a faint grin, “I want Hui Lin to be Yang Chen’s wife!”
