Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars-Chapter 720
Zhang Xiaohui has told her that Lin Ze has been trying to get close to her these days, Su Wan didn't think that a man like Lin Ze would ever be overwhelmed with repentance or regret. Most probably he wanted something and Aunt Zhang was his only medium to reach them, which was why he was chasing Aunt Zhang around like some stalker.
" Do I have to?" Lin Chen didn't like his uncle in his eyes he wasn't even worth taking to the cheap tea shop. He knew his uncle too well if they were to take him to the tea shop then he will surely order the priciest thing and then act as if they were starving him.
" Do you want to make a scene in the middle of the street then Ah Chen?" said Su Wan as she turned her head sideways and looked at Lin Chen with exasperation. " Your uncle is clearly waiting in public because he wants to use public opinion to side with him. I am not afraid of fighting with him but we are currently in the eyes of the imperial family, if we make mistake then that woman sitting in the imperial family will definitely make things difficult for us."
Lin Chen sighed as he ruffled his hair and headed straight to his uncle, all he wanted was to go back home and eat his wife clean. Why was it so difficult?
Lin Ze has been waiting for his nephews to come out of the brothel, so when Lin Chen came towards him, he caught sight of the tower of muscles walking towards him with ease. " Ah, Chen you are here——"
" Don't act so close to me, ex-uncle." Lin Chen stopped Lin Ze when the latter tried to hug him, his senses were just as sharp as his elder brother after all because of being a Barny rubble as Su Wan called him sometimes, he was all muscles and strength, and he has gone to the mountains a lot of time and with all the work that he did on the docks, he was able to detect that at least three people were looking at him and Lin Ze.
Most probably Lin Ze has overstayed in a brothel and no longer had any money to pay back the debt.
Lin Ze was furious when he saw that Lin Chen pushed him away but he still smiled at him and said, " What are you talking about Ah Chen? What ex-uncle? Even if we had some differences we are still blood relatives." As he spoke he kept his voice loud as if he was making a point to someone.
" Can you be a bit quieter?" Lin Chen said as he poked his smallest finger in his ear and rolled it slightly with a frown. " You are only half related to us and what's more we have already separated, what else should I call you if not for ex-uncle?"
When Lin Ze heard how Lin Chen was retorting him, he frowned and couldn't help but say, " Is that what you have learned from your wife? I swear what kind of wife did you marry? When you were with me, you were so respectful and kind to your elders and now that you have married that woman, she has led you and your brothers astray."
Lin Chen was the one who was scared of him the most because he would often call him useless and make use of his insecurities. But now Lin Chen who was standing in front of him was super confident and he looked nothing like the useless boy who would cry in front of him.
" Wan Wan is really good because of her we can live comfortably and no longer have to worry about getting starved to death," Lin Chen's expression soured as he continued, " Just come with me, we will talk in the tea shop there."
Lin Ze was not willing to go to the tea shop because he knew that if he was alone with the Lin brothers, they wouldn't listen to him. He has to make use of this opportunity and ask them to take Lin Che to their shop.
Lin Chen knew his uncle too well, he at once understood what the man was thinking so he lowered his voice and threatened Lin Ze, " I will suggest you come with me silently or else you might find that someone has accidentally set your house on fire."
He and his brothers have been tormented by the people of the Lin family so much that Lin Chen had no good feelings towards them. Even if the entire family was to burn to death, he will say good riddance at their funeral.
Lin Ze blanched upon seeing that Lin Chen wasn't lying, he had no choice but to agree with Lin Chen as he followed after Lin Chen, it was all right. He will let this little hoof be arrogant as possible as he can but he was going to win this thing, he was sure of it.
The two of them walked inside the tea house where Lin Chen asked for a private parlour for him and his family.
Lin Ze walked inside the private parlours and sat down before he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. " I heard that you have opened a new shop?"
Su Wan did not say anything, she was going to leave this trashy uncle of her husbands to her dear husbands. After all, it was their fault that they were too kind to this man and let him dance on top of their heads, now look even after losing everything, getting his legs broken twice and spending three nights at Yamen he was still jumping like some cockroach that can't be killed.
Instead, she looked down at her nails that have gone chapped because of her pregnancy.
Lin Jing's eyes narrowed when he heard his uncle ask about the shop. " Yes, we did."
Lin Ze noticed that his nephews' attitude towards him was very cold and they looked rather unhappy with him as well.
But when he thought about the purpose of his actions, he resisted the urge to curse these white-eyed wolves.
