"Yes, I won't give up."

Lu Chen smiled slightly.

Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief seeing Lu Chen's determination.

"I'll get you something to eat. We'll take care of you for the next few days."

Liu Yuan noticed that Lu Chen hadn't eaten, so he got up to make fried rice.

People need food to survive; you'll get hungry if you skip a meal. No matter what, eat your fill first.

Lu Chen secretly sized up Lin the Blind. Just as he was getting curious, Lin the Blind suddenly opened his eyes and roared at him fiercely, "What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

Lu Chen immediately looked away.

Liu Yuan brought out the fried rice and quickly said, "Old Lin has a bad temper, please don't take it to heart."

Lin the Blind snorted and continued snoring.

Lu Chen shook his head to indicate that he didn't mind. He said politely, "I have no intention of offending my benefactor. I just want to see what my benefactor looks like."

Lin the Blind Man's snoring stopped abruptly, and he rolled over and went inside the sofa.

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "I have his photo. I'll give it to you later. You should eat first."

Lin the Blind is all bark and no bite. Don't let his fierce words fool you; when you show him weakness, he's kinder than anyone else.

Lu Chen ate his meal, chewing slowly and deliberately.

"My cooking skills aren't very good, so you'll have to be patient for the next few days. Once things are settled, you'll be able to enjoy a few proper meals."

Liu Yuan felt a little sorry to see that he couldn't eat, because his cooking skills were indeed not good.

This simple egg fried rice is still a bit burnt.

"He's as thin as a candle now; even if you gave him dragon meat, he wouldn't be able to eat it."

Lin the Blind Man snorted and interrupted.

Lu Chen nodded: "Yes, I can't taste anything anymore. A few days ago, when Uncle Zhao and Aunt Lu cooked for me, I could barely taste anything."

Thinking of Zhao Zhiyuan and Lu Xuelian, Lu Chen felt a warmth in his heart.

"Do you find their cooking delicious?"

Lin the Blind Man suddenly sat up from the sofa. He looked at Lu Chen, his gray eyes fixed on him.

Lu Chen was taken aback, then nodded.

Liu Yuan also asked, "Is there a problem with this?"

Lin the Blind Man suddenly laughed: "This is a big problem. The fact that he can taste the flavor at this time means that they must be blood relatives who genuinely care for you. If I'm not mistaken, then they are your biological parents."

Lin the Blind's words were undoubtedly a thunderbolt.

Liu Yuan was stunned.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment before reacting and immediately denied it: "That's impossible, they can't be my biological parents."

How could this be? If this were true, then how vicious must Lu Yuanshan and Lin Xianghua be?

"What's impossible about that? Do you think the person who switched the beams and pillars would necessarily leave far away? The wickedness of human nature and the malice of people's hearts are immeasurable. Judging from your tone, you are very familiar with them."

After finishing his sentence, Blind Lin narrowed his eyes and revealed an evil smile: "Young man, I love seeing others suffer. Come on, tell me about it, and let me see just how vicious that lecherous man really is!"

Lu Chen felt a pang of sadness in his heart as he slowly recounted how he had become acquainted with the Zhao family.

Liu Yuan felt angry just listening to it.

"They knew you weren't their biological child, so at first they tried every means to mistreat you. But you were lucky and really lived up to their expectations. They couldn't suppress you and even rose to prominence along with you. So they changed their minds and got close to your biological parents, teasing them to satisfy their twisted desires."

"They also enjoy doting on their own daughter as godparents. How did your family end up with such a scourge?"

Lin the Blind shook his head after hearing this, his tone becoming increasingly amiable.

Lu Chen's survival in such an environment is truly a testament to the great virtues of his ancestors.

Lu Chen didn't speak; he didn't know what to say.

Lin the Blind clicked his tongue twice, then leaned back on the sofa and started snoring again.

Liu Yuan sighed, speechless for a moment.

Lu Chen finally fell asleep that night.

He had just fallen asleep when he saw Su Tiantian in his dream.

Su Tiantian was still in the form of a dragon, and her claws grabbed one of his fingers.

"Sweet."

Looking at Su Tiantian, Lu Chen felt much less gloomy.

"Uncle Lu, I'll arrive tomorrow."

Su Tiantian smiled at Lu Chen and blew a breath of dragon energy towards him.

"Thanks."

Lu Chen felt a heavy weight in his heart; he didn't know how to repay so many people who wanted to save him.

Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder if he was really that good.

He was good enough that so many people went to great lengths to save him.

"No need to thank me. I didn't save you for nothing. You'll have to give me something really delicious later."

She gains faith from saving people, and that faith helps her grow.

She didn't get something for nothing.

Su Tiantian viewed this as a gain, but her gain was just a bit special.

As dawn broke, Su Tiantian released Lu Chen back into the world.

Su Tiantian opened her eyes with a yawn, and Liu Xiaohua sighed with heartache: "You can get a good rest after you get off the train."

The little guy hasn't had a good rest at all during these past few days on the train; he even has dark circles under his eyes.

She's so well-behaved; even though she can't sleep well, she's still quiet and obedient.

Liu Xiaohua touched Su Tiantian's hair.

Su Tiantian dozed off, leaning against Liu Xiaohua's chest.

It was almost noon when they finally heard the train announcement: "Dear passengers, the train is about to arrive at the next station..."

Liu Xiaohua immediately started packing her things.

She's seen the world.

Liu Xiaohua packed her luggage. She had eaten all the food she brought on the way, and some of it had been stolen.

After exiting the station, Liu Xiaohua went to find a car, while Su Tiantian obediently tugged at Liu Xiaohua's clothes.

Liu Xiaohua always felt that big cities were unsafe, and that there were bad people with ill intentions watching her from the shadows. After thinking for a while, she simply took a rope and tied their hands together.

Su Tiantian blinked, then smiled and praised, "Grandma, you're so smart."

Liu Xiaohua smiled shyly: "That way I won't get lost."

She was at her wit's end, imagining countless terrifying scenarios in her mind. It didn't matter if the method was ugly, as long as it worked.

Perhaps Liu Xiaohua's actions inspired many passersby, who followed suit.

Liu Xiaohua proudly led Su Tiantian into the car and gave her the address.

When Su Tiantian and Liu Xiaohua arrived, it was already dusk.

Looking at the villa gate in front of her, Liu Xiaohua asked Su Tiantian, "Is this the place?"

This is Su Tian's Dessert.

Liu Xiaohua then rang the doorbell.

Someone came to open the door very quickly.

Liu Yuan looked at Liu Xiaohua and Su Tiantian, then politely asked, "Did you get the wrong person?"

"We're not in the wrong place. We're looking for Lu Chen. Does he live here?"

Liu Xiaohua looked at Liu Yuan and asked.

Liu Yuan nodded; Lu Chen lived here.

"Lu Chen lives here, but he's a little unavailable to see people right now. You should go back first, and he'll contact you when he's more available."

It wasn't a mistake, but Lu Chen wasn't in a position to meet outsiders right now, so Liu Yuan could only politely decline.

"No, Uncle, I came here to save Uncle Lu."

Su Tiantian squeezed through the crack in the door, politely declined Liu Yuan's offer, and headed straight for the main entrance.
