Chereads / Tsk! I am your Grandfather / Chapter 19 - The truth

Chapter 19 - The truth

Hearing his son's young puberty voice which was calling him with excitement, Lin Zhang couldn't help but smile at it.

"Ha...ha...ha...son, you are now awake?"

He replied livelily as he turned to him.

Regaled by it, Yichen rushed towards him in exhilaration.

"Father! You are back for real?!"

His deep turquoise eyes sparkled in passion as he saw his father reacting normally to him for the first time. It was an unexplainable soothing feeling that went deep within him. Seeing his warm gentle face smiling at him was somewhat comforting to him. It was as if his years of deep scar were healed at that instant.

He went all teary when he saw his father being well and not acting crazy anymore.

"Let me see, how my son has grown. Ha...ha..ha..."

Lin Zhang slowly bent to hold Yichen by his shoulder and observed him closely from head to toe.

His father's warm gaze surrounded him with care. It was a long while since Yichen last felt it and it replenished his young heart. Indeed his father had come back for the better.

Lin Zhang was very pleased to see his son grow up to be a fine handsome young man. He was all smiled when he saw him with those keen sparkled eyes; those were the eyes of a youthful keenness.

He recalled that his son was so little when he last saw him but now he had grown a lot and his handsome jade face was even clearer. It became so smooth and refined with a little feminine touch to it. Right now his son looked similar to his wife, Yanyu with those deep turquoise eyes which were looking at him meaningfully; his son was the spitting image of his wife, Yanyu.

Seeing his silver hair and deep turquoise eyes, Lin Zhang couldn't help but remember his wife and the ill fate of their family on that day. Everything happened in the blink of an eye and many years had already passed. His son was now grown up and he had missed witnessing it all.

He smiled bitterly at it.

Thrilled to see his father's normal behaviour, Yichen wiped his tears and spoke with heartfelt contentment: "Father, Yichen is happy that you are back for real."

The happiness on his son's face was evident. It was as if a kid had finally united with his long-lost Guardian.

Lin Zhang was left saddened to see his son's thrilled face. To think that he was waiting for his return all those times, hurt him immensely.

He sighed at it and shared with deep regret: "Son, I am sorry that this father had left you all alone all those years."

Yichen wiped his tears and hugged him dearly. He then noted with warm composure: "Father, don't be sorry, Yichen is happy that father has finally returned to me."

He eased his father's sadness with his calm words.

He was so mature to say those words that Lin Zhang was left stunned.

His son was so young yet he acted so maturely like a grown-up.

Just what the hell happened in all these years for a kid to be acted so mature?

He held his son's hands and asked in curiosity: "Son, come let's seat on the bed. Share with your father everything that had happened in the past and the current situation of the Lin clan."

Yichen looked at him seriously and nodded his head.

He walked by his father and sat beside him.

He then started to share everything right after his father went crazy and his mother had been taken by their tribe.

He told him about the way the entire Lin clan treated him badly and his father and the fact that they throw them to stay in that isolated corner of the household and then the afterwards story of how Lin Zhou became the chief and how they all mistreated them.

He told his father everything from them banning him to go to the cultivation class with the excused to treat and nurse his father to the various other mistreatments; the Lin clansmen and the maids had done to him and his father.

'What?!! Lin Zhou banned you from going to the cultivation class?!"

Lin Zhang was left irked by it. He couldn't believe that his brother Lin Zhou would be too cruel to his son and to go to the extreme length of even banning him from getting his cultivation lesson was extremely harsh.

In the world where power spoke, cultivation was pretty important and something every single person on the continent seek for. To think that Lin Zhou banned his son from going to cultivation class in the name of taking care of him was just ruthless; he was forcing him to be crippled for life.

He was intentionally ruining the child's future. Without power, one's life would be much worst than a servant's and he was aiming for it.

If Lin Zhou had an ounce of care for him and his son, he would have instead arranged for a maid to take care of him and let Yichen practice the cultivation.

To think that he was also amongst the ones who mistreated them; his once closed eyes were now opened wide and cleared.

He clenched his fist in rage as he continued to listen to his son's every story. Even the case of the maids was a total nutcase.

To think that they all treated his son like shit just because he was not present and aware of it all was truly out of humanity. They all were ruthless human beings much worst than the devil itself. And to think that Lin Zhou allowed for it all to happen and even directed them was beyond his imagination. He didn't think that his brother would turn out to be such a despicable person.

Lin Zhang went inflamed by it all.

But still, he maintained his composure and continued to listen to his son's every word.

Right now one thing doesn't make sense, his son said that no one had offered to help them then how was he cured?! Furthermore, when he previously check his son's cultivation he was already at the Qi collection realm level 1.

How did it happen? Did he already learn the cultivation all by himself?! But how would that be possible if one needed to get the impurities out from one's body then he would need someone to guide him. Without guidance, those things weren't simply possible.

Amused by it all, Lin Zhang turned to his son and inquired in curiosity: "Son, tell this father who teach you cultivation? And if the Lin clan didn't help then how was I cured?!"

Yichen knew his father would be asking about it but if he said all the truth his father would think he was crazy as he won't be able to see his master; therefore, he just spoke a faint story of it: "Father, I got myself a master. He is one powerful master which I recently met. Yichen was lucky to have him as my master. He helped me with my cultivation and helped me remove the impurities, furthermore, Master told me that father's injury was caused by a celestial tier technique that only a ten sky tier yellow cactus flower or one celestial tier yin mushroom will be able to cure it."

'Mn. This Yichen's master seems to be quite powerful to be able to know the cause and the cure of my disease.'

Lin Zhang was already impressed by it and continued to attend to his son.

"Furthermore, my master says that there is extreme centipede-like yin energy making father's brain its playground. That was the cause of father's disease.

And since the Lin family won't be willing to give the sky-tier yellow cactus flower to cure father's disease; therefore, master-planned that we better sneak to the clan's forest and get those flowers ourselves.

With it, yesterday night, master and I went towards the clan's forest and deactivate the formation flag with my blood. Then we robbed the flowers from there and came back to cure father. Master cured father's disease yesterday itself and went back to recuperate."
