The steward was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard a banging on the door. He woke up instantly as soon as he heard the movement from his door. He took his clothes from the side and put them on, put on his shoes and quickly went to the door.

Knocking so fast, hopefully nothing big happens.

It turned out that something really did happen!

The steward looked at the figure with long black hair outside the door wearing a dark cloak. Bai Chen’s beautiful face in the moonlight makes his heart skip a beat!

His first thought: Master didn’t make his wife wear a mask today?

His second thought: Not right!

He subconsciously stretched out his neck to look for Lin Chi’s figure outside his room, but he didn’t see anything. Bai Chen is the only one outside his room.

Madam actually came to him late at night without a mask!

The always shred steward dared not use his wise head to imagine his own misery!

He cried in his heart. What about the dark guards? What about the dark guards? Why did the madam run over to his side!!!

The same breakdown. The dark guards, who had no choice, silently hid themselves on the roof and in the bushes.

“He didn’t come. I want to ask the steward something.” Bai Chen said and glanced at the steward’s room: “Let’s go in and talk.”

Then, Bai Chen didn’t care whether the steward agreed or not, he lifted his foot and walked in.

The steward is someone who has experienced the great scenes of the shura field after hundred battles, so he quickly calms himself down and follows Bai Chen into the room.

He thought about it and did not close the door, at the same time, he secretly planned in his heart: No matter what the madam asks, he must answer truthfully. He must quickly send madam back to master. Otherwise, once the master found them, his old life was over!

Bai Chen doesn’t have much time so he did not set the stage but ask directly: “Who is that ‘old thing’?”

The steward did not respond for a while.

Bai Chen asked again: “Lin Chi’s personality is related to that ‘old thing’, right?”

The steward still didn’t respond and was strangely quiet.

Bai Chen didn’t ask any further questions. He looked at the steward quietly. The room was silent for a while.

After a long while, the steward sighed: “Master, his life is not good.”

Bai Chen’s heart aches because of the steward’s tone.

The steward looked at Bai Chen, then poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. He said: “It’s alright if madam knows. I also hope that madam will not be too afraid of master’s love for you. He loves you too much and cares too much about you.”

“That ‘old thing’ is master’s father.” The steward said leisurely.

Lin Chi’s father, Lin Danyuan, is a generational chivalrous hero, but he can only be a hero. He was not a good lover, husband, and father.

Lin Danyuan and Lin Chi’s mother, Liu Rumei, were childhood sweethearts. They were innocent playmates and grew together. When the elders of the two families saw that they were getting along closely, in the dead of the night, they engaged the two. They two were also interested in each other at that time, so when the elder asked, they responded shyly.

After the engagement, the relationship between the two became more affectionate. Every moment is sweet and happy, it’s just a pity that good times don’t last long. Demons were rampant at that time. They attacked the martial arts circle, even robbed the Wulin Alliance leader pearl in the palm¹Beloved person, especially daughter. The Wulin Alliance leader was furious and widely distributed martial arts poster, gathering all heroes and people with lofty ideals in the Jianghu to crusade and attack the demon sect.

The Lin and Liu family were both martial arts families. They naturally received the martial arts poster. Lin Danyuan became famous at a young age, beside, at the age of 20, he had already reached the eighth level of Lin’s martial arts. He is a hot blooded youth who wants to be a hero, who was praised by everyone like his father and the alliance leader. As soon as the martial arts poster arrived at Lin’s notice, he happily took it and asked his father to take him with him.

Although Liu Rumei’s martial arts are not as powerful as Lin Danyuan, she was not bad. She seeks love so she was unwilling to be separated from Lin Danyuan. She also begged her father to take her to encircle and suppress the demon sect.

It’s a pity that this time the encircling and suppressing the demon sect operation broke the engagement between the two.

Lin Danyuan is young and vigorous, he has many ideas when attacking the demons. He asked Liu Rumei to cover up for him as he left the group secretly to infiltrate the demon sect.

In the demon sect, Lin Danyuan became attached to the alliance leader’s daughter at that time. In the confusion, he had a skin-to-skin relationship with the alliance leader’s daughter.

Afterwards, although the alliance leader’s daughter was rescued, the righteous sect did not defeat the demon sect, they even suffered heavy losses from the demon sect. If it weren’t for the fact that there seemed to be an important change in the demon sect that made them withdraw, at that time, the martial arts circle would probably fall into the demon sect’s hands.

The martial arts circle strength was hurt. Father Lin was also injured, so in order to create a happy atmosphere, after father Lin brought Lin Danyuan back, he was ready to hold Lin Danyuan and Liu Rumei’s wedding.

But he didn’t expect the alliance leader’s daughter to come to the door on the eve of the wedding and said that she have Lin Danyuan child.

Although Liu Rumei loves Lin Danyuan, her love was not without self-respect. She is also young and hot blooded. In a fit of rage, she tore up her marriage letter with Lin Danyuan and ran away from home.

In hesitation, Lin Danyuan, who was left behind, was forced to marry the alliance leader’s daughter.

Liu Rumei saw that Lin Danyuan did not come to look for her and even agreed to marry the alliance leader’s daughter, she became more angry. She sneaked into Lin’s house on the night of their marriage, knocked out the alliance leader’s daughter and Lin Danyuan unconscious. With the anger that she couldn’t leave behind or forget in her heart, she did something good with Lin Danyuan.

When Liu Rumei got her senses back, she regretted it. So she slipped away while no one noticed and never dared to go home again. She started wandering alone.

And what she doesn’t know is, Lin Danyuan knows everything that happened that night. On one side is the person he loves, on the other side is the alliance leader’s pregnant daughter. In the end, he could only pretend to be unconscious.

After a few years, one day, Liu Rumei suddenly brought a boy to the Lin Manor to find Lin Danyang.

Liu Rumei soon passed away, passed away in Lin Danyuan’s arms. Before she died she told Lin Danyuan that the boy was his child.

That boy is Lin Chi.

Lin Chi’s life was not good after being accepted into the Lin Manor.

Lin Danyuan doesn’t love the alliance leader’s daughter, he just marries her because of responsibility. The person he still loves is Liu Rumei, who grew up with him since childhood. He would often drink under the moonlight, thinking about Liu Rumei who has disappeared without a trace, but he doesn’t dare to look for her.

The alliance leader’s daughter is a person that will always have everything go her way since she was a child. She was used to being held up and indulgent. She fell in love with Lin Danyuan on the night she had a relationship with Lin Danyuan.

A woman’s jealousy is terrifying.

Married for many years, even though she gave birth to a son and daughter for Lin Danyuan, Lin Danyuan’s heart is still not on her. Later on, he even took his illegitimate child back to the manor for her to raise.

After years of emotional tempering, the alliance leader’s daughter has been able to disguise herself to win Lin Danyuan love but sadly. Even when raising Lin Chi, she also disguises herself well.

She listened to Lin Chi in front of Lin Danyuan, giving him everything better than her own children, but behind, Lin Chi was often stabbed with small needles to vent her anger.

Her son and daughter also learned her style and often bullied Lin Chi where Lin Danyuan doesn’t see. They will call Lin Chi’s mother shameless, and call Lin Chi a little bastard.

The young Lin Chi always remembered what his mother said to him, she said that his father would be nice to him, so after being pricked with needles and jointly bullied by his half-siblings, he will go look for Lin Danyuan to file a complaint.

However, no wound was found on Lin Chi’s body, instead alliance leader’s daughter and her two children gain the initiative by striking first.

Like big raindrops on pear blossoms, she said Lin Chi probably doesn’t her, this mother.

The two children pretended to be sad and cried, saying that they did not bully Lin Chi. They deliberately exposed their own disguised wounds on their bodies, then panicked and said that Lin Chi didn’t bully them.

So it was Lin Chi who was wrong.

Once, twice, thrice. The result is the same every time. Later, Lin Danyuan no longer believed Lin Chi. Even if Lin Chi was humiliated from his brother and sister bullying, Lin Danyuan’s first reaction was that Lin Chi was wrong. It was Lin Chi’s fault.

Over time, Lin Chi was also disheartened.

But this was not the fuse that made Lin Chi what he is like in the present.

When Liu Rumei was alive, she often had to go out on missions to earn money to support the two. She was afraid that Lin Chi would be alone so in order for Lin Chi to have a playmate, she spent a lot of money to buy a playmate cat to accompany Lin Chi. Later, after Lin Chi arrived at Lin Manor, he also brought this cat with him.

This cat is the last consolation for the young Lin Chi in Lin Manor.

But the cat was ultimately strangled to death by Lin Danyuan in front of the little Lin Chi.

Lin Danyuan is very strict about his children’s martial arts. Once his requirement is not met, he will punish his children with his own hands. Lightly is a day without food. Heavily is doing a martial arts squat with a bucket of water on their head for a day.

Lin Danyuan has a particularly strict requirement for Lin Chi, because he is Liu Rumei’s son, the son of the person he loves. He wholeheartedly wanted Lin Chi to become a person who is worthy of respect. This became his heart demon, and it has also become the hatred in the alliance leader’s daughter’s heart.

Practicing martial arts is very hard and Lin Chi even has to accept the alliance leader’s daughter torture. The alliance leader’s daughter’s martial arts is much higher than the little Lin Chi. Every day Lin Chi will be caught and stabbed with needles to vent her anger. She won’t give Lin Chi a meal if she has a chance.

Lin Danyuan was often not at home at that time, this also led to Lin Chi starving. He was hungry and hurt, so naturally he couldn’t practice martial arts well. Lin Danyuan did not get satisfactory results so he continued to punish Lin Chi. This becomes an unsolved cycle.

Later, it wasn’t known what Lin Danyuan heard. One day, when he return home, he angrily carried the little Lin Chi to knelt in front of Liu Rumei’s tablet and scolded him for playing with things. He was furious and grabbed the playmate cat, who was with Lin Chi. In front of Lin Chi, he twisted the playmate cat, which was wailing pitifully and broke its neck.

Little Lin Chi was late that night. He brave the thunderstorm and sneaked outside the Lin Manor. He found the small hill where the cat often played and dug a hole for the cat with his own hands. He is still little, with another day without food and punished by kneeling for a whole day, he has already run out of strength. But he took in deep breath, with blood dripping from his hands, he dug a pit and buried the cat that had been with him for several years. Later, when he returned to Lin Manor, he developed a high fever for several days. After he woke up, he never spoke again.

After that, the alliance leader’s daughter’s son wanted to kill Lin Chi but he didn’t expect Lin Chi to be lucky and escape the catastrophe while he himself was self-defeating, breaking his own legs.

At the end, all these crimes were naturally attributed to Lin Chi.

At that time, Liu Rumei had been dead for several years, Lin Danyuan gradually lost the deep love he had before. With the alliance leader’s daughter’s tenderness, the two relationship was getting better.

His son’s legs are broken, he has no possibility of practicing martial arts. The alliance leader’s daughter almost collapsed. She held Lin Chi and made a fuss about making him pay with his own life, raining curses on Lin Chi for having wolf heart and dog lungs, and how she raised a white-eye wolf.

Because his elder son’s martial art has always been better than Lin Chi’s, these years, with the wind from the person beside his pillow, the alliance leader’s daughter, Lin Danyuan also paid more and more attention to his eldest son. Instead, Lin Chi became a thorn in Lin Danyuan’s heart that could not be removed. He was humiliated by his incompetent son.

His dear son’s legs were broken and unable to inherit Lin Danyuan mantle, Lin Danyuan’s eyes were splitting with anger. Lin Chi, who narrowly escapes death, has his sternum broken with a breath.

However, this did not calm Lin Danyuan’s anger. At night, it wasn’t known what stimulated him, he dragged Lin Chi, who was almost immobile in the woodshed, away all the way to Liu Rumei’s tablet. He cursed at Liu Rumei’s tablet, in the end, he slapped it from anger and broke Liu Rumei’s tablet into pieces. The urn placed behind the tablet was swept away by the wind from his palm strike, breaking it to the ground.

The young Lin Chi was lying on the ground in distress. With his neck up, he watched helplessly as his mother’s ashes were mercilessly blown away by the wind. It couldn’t be found anymore.

Since then, the most important thing in Lin Chi’s life is gone. And they were all destroyed by his father himself.

Since then, Lin Chi hated Lin Danyuan to the core.

T/N: Chichi, make that old bastard and his ‘beloved’ bastard family cough out blood!!!! (༎ຶ⌑༎ຶ)
