888: Chapter 860: You Are Our Pillar!

Li Chen’s action this ti can be considered a success.

But in Li Chen’s eyes, he has failed, utterly and completely.

With bewildernt and incomprehension, Li Chen returned to Linchuan.

He had always believed he could face anything, solve any problem that ca his way.

But it wasn’t until now that he realized, often he seed incapable of doing anything at all.

When Lilith sacrificed herself for him, there was nothing he could do.

When Ning Wangyang underwent demonization, he was equally powerless.

After sending the Nether Wolf back to base, Li Chen returned to the villa alone and lay quietly on the sofa, his gaze becoming sowhat detached.

He didn’t even know if he could always protect this ho.

“Am I really that useless?”

Looking at the scenery outside the window, Li Chen’s eyes were exceptionally complex.

“What can I truly do?” Li Chen constantly questioned himself in his heart.

Perhaps because of the holiday, Lin Xiaoxiao had co ho early.

Seeing Li Chen lying on the living room sofa, she couldn’t help but gleefully pounce toward him.

“Brother-in-law, you’re back!”

Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao dive into his arms, Li Chen forced a smile.

If it were before, he might have teased her, but at this mont, he truly wasn’t in the mood.

“Hmm?”

Lin Xiaoxiao had also intended to do just that, but upon seeing Li Chen’s complexion, she sensed that sothing was off.

“Brother-in-law, what’s wrong?

Why aren’t you happy?

Is the matter resolved?” Lin Xiaoxiao asked.

“Resolved,” Li Chen nodded in confirmation.

“Mhm, good that it’s over, but…

huh, where’s Lilith?” Lin Xiaoxiao curiously asked.

Upon hearing Lin Xiaoxiao’s question, Li Chen felt even more upset.

However, faced with Lin Xiaoxiao’s question, he didn’t know how to respond.

So, he chose silence.

Noticing Li Chen’s silence, Lin Xiaoxiao realized that she might have said sothing wrong.

With a sinking feeling in her heart, Lin Xiaoxiao wasn’t foolish; she realized that sothing must have happened to Lilith for Li Chen to look like this.

“Brother-in-law, I’m sorry, I misspoke…”

Li Chen shook his head: “No, you didn’t say anything wrong, it’s , I’m the one at fault, I didn’t protect Lilith well.

In the end, she had to protect instead.”

Li Chen suddenly looked earnestly at Lin Xiaoxiao: “Tell , am I really that useless?”

“Brother-in-law!” Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly beca a bit angry: “How can you say that about yourself?”

“Anyone who dares to say you’re useless, I’ll take issue with them!” Lin Xiaoxiao said loudly: “Since you ca to this family, how many tis have you saved and my sister?

How many tis have you protected us?

You are our guardian god, the pillar of this ho!”

“The pillar…” A look of realization crossed Li Chen’s face.

“Alright, alright, brother-in-law.

I know you must be feeling down right now.

Tonight, I, your dear sister, will personally cook a al for my dear brother-in-law, okay?” Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly bead a smile at Li Chen.

“You know how to cook?”

“How co I can’t do it?” Lin Xiaoxiao pouted and said, “I secretly learned for a long ti with sister and Aunt Wang.

Today, you’ll get to really taste my cooking skills.”

Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao’s words, Li Chen couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

Although he knew Lin Xiaoxiao was trying to open up his heart, so things couldn’t just be gotten over in an instant.

“Alright, alright, brother-in-law, stop overthinking things by yourself!” Lin Xiaoxiao said, placing her hands on Li Chen’s shoulders: “You should know, there are now three won living in this house.

No, plus Aunt Wang, it’s four!

And you, you’re the only man in this house.”

“So yeah.” Lin Xiaoxiao raised a finger, wiggled it slightly, then continued: “You, as the only man, are naturally the pillar of this ho.

If you fall, what would we poor, lonely won do?”

Li Chen’s face couldn’t help but show a strange expression: “If you said Lin Yi and the others are won, I would believe it, but you, you’re more like a girl, aren’t you?”

“You’re horrible!!” Lin Xiaoxiao pushed Li Chen forcefully, her face flushed as she protested loudly: “Can’t you phrase things a bit more tactfully?”

“I’m already being very tactful…” Li Chen muttered quietly.

“I’m not talking to you anymore!” Lin Xiaoxiao jumped up from Li Chen’s body and rrily hopped toward the stairs.

Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao leaving, a smile finally appeared on Li Chen’s face.

He knew very well that Lin Xiaoxiao was doing this deliberately, just to make him feel a little better.

However, his mood didn’t get any better; it only beca more uncomfortable.

“Li Chen!

You’re such a jerk!

A big man like you, needing comfort from won, do you even qualify as a man?” Lying on the couch, Li Chen stretched out his hand and slapped himself.

“It’s ti to wake up, I don’t have that much ti to wallow in self-pity.” Li Chen shook his head.

He knew his own situation all too well.

Right now, outside, there might be god knows how many enemies, both visible and hidden, spying on him; he had neither the ti nor the privilege to be despondent.

What lay before him was just one path.

And that was to continuously beco stronger, until, he could beco the true ‘strongest’.

Because only the strongest can say they can truly protect the people around them.

Only the strongest can truly be fearless!

“Beep beep beep…”

Just as Li Chen made his decision, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Seeing the displayed number, Li Chen couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

The caller was none other than Catherine.

It seed that Nether Wolf must have told Catherine about his encounter with Ning Wangyang.

Shaking his head, Li Chen sowhat helplessly answered the call.

Although in na Li Chen and Catherine had a superior-subordinate relationship, their actual relation went far beyond that scope.

Even before, Catherine often directly scolded Li Chen for making a wrong decision.

Of course, in the Palace of the Nether King, Catherine was the only one who dared to do so.

“Hello…” After connecting the call, Li Chen’s face was filled with a bitter smile; he was already prepared to be scolded by Catherine.

However, on the phone, Catherine was surprisingly calm and her voice even sounded sowhat grave.

“The Yu Family has arrived!”

Hearing Catherine’s words, Li Chen’s face also turned cold.

“They’ve finally co, huh?

Good.

Let’s get everyone prepared and serve them a ‘feast’!”
