Superbase Evolution

Chapter 134 Chat Alone
"Cough cough!" The cough interrupted the ambiguous game between the two.

When the two saw Mrs. Ye and Ye Tianzhen coming over, Ye Yuzhen quickly pushed Lin Shen away and subconsciously tidied up her hair which was not messy.

Lin Shen was also a little panicked. Although it seemed like he had done nothing, he felt like he was caught in bed.

"Xiaotian, take Lin Shen to change his clothes, and then come to the living room. Yuzhen, come with me." Mrs. Ye was obviously much colder towards Lin Shen this time, and after she finished speaking, she took Ye Yuzhen away.

Lin Shen could understand it. The story between him and Concubine Bai was widely spread, so it would be strange for Madam Ye to be happy.

"Brother Lin, what's going on between you and Concubine Bai? I think you are a good person and you shouldn't be the kind of person who plays two-timing. There must be some misunderstanding here." Ye Tianzhen seems to have a good impression of Lin Shen.

"There's really nothing going on between Concubine Bai and me, and I don't know why she said that." Lin Shen said helplessly.

Ye Tianzhen pondered and said, "Maybe she doesn't want to choose Ouyang Yudu so easily, so she dragged you out as a shield. Go change your clothes first, and then talk to Sister Yi and explain the misunderstanding. Sister Yi is the elder after all, if she says something serious, just treat it as respect for the elders."

"Brother Tian, don't worry, I know." Lin Shen nodded.

When something like this happens, it's only natural for the elders to say a few words. It's understandable and human nature.

After changing clothes, Lin Shen followed Ye Tianzhen to the living room, only to see Mrs. Ye sitting alone on the sofa, without seeing Ye Yuzhen.

"Tian Zhen, you go out first. I have something to talk to Lin Shen alone." Mrs. Ye stroked the black cat in her arms and said without raising her head.

"Sister Yi, I'll go out first." Ye Tianzhen didn't dare to disobey Mrs. Ye. He secretly winked at Lin Shen and went out, closing the door from the outside.

Lin Shen looked at Mrs. Ye, wondering how to explain.

"Lin Shen, how do you think your talent compares to your second brother's?" Before Lin Shen could speak, Mrs. Ye spoke first, and what she said surprised Lin Shen a little.

"Of course I am far inferior to you." Lin Shen told the truth. His talent was indeed not outstanding among the Lin siblings.

Madam Ye nodded slightly: "You have a clear understanding of yourself. Your talent is indeed far inferior to your second brother."

"Mrs. Ye knows my second brother?" Lin Shen was a little surprised. From Mrs. Ye's tone, it seemed that she was very familiar with his second brother.

Madam Ye did not answer him, but continued, "Back then, your second brother was extremely talented. He could master any technique at a glance, and he could even surpass his master. It was easy for him to challenge opponents of higher levels. Even a genius like that would inevitably feel wronged. You are not as good at learning as your second brother, but you are better at causing trouble."

"Mrs. Ye, I haven't taken the initiative to cause any trouble, right?" Lin Shen was a little surprised. It seemed that this Mrs. Ye and his second brother were more than just familiar with each other.

"No?" Madam Ye said coldly, "Even though your second brother is arrogant, he would not provoke an ascender like you when he was at the Iron Level. Aren't you better than him?"

Lin Shen was speechless. Although he was not the one who provoked Zheng Guyuan, that was the fact.

"You are lucky. The Mushroom King helped you get through the disaster, but this is your luck. People can't always rely on luck. Yu Zhen can't marry someone who risks his life on luck." Mrs. Ye's tone became increasingly severe.

Lin Shen was shocked that Madam Ye actually knew about this. It seemed that someone in the Sea of Green Trees secretly watched their fight with Zheng Guyuan. He just didn't know whether the person who was watching was Madam Ye or someone under Madam Ye's command. Whether it was the former or the latter, it showed that this Madam Ye was not simple, at least she was different from the Ye family he imagined.

Madam Ye stared at Lin Shen and continued, "I know a little bit about you Lin family. If you just want to find a woman to marry and have children with, then don't think about Yu Zhen anymore. I only have this one daughter, and I won't let her marry someone who only wants to use her."

Lin Shen remained silent. This was indeed his plan at first, but after gradually getting to know Ye Yuzhen, he did develop a liking for her.

"So you have to think clearly about why you want to be with Yuzhen. If you really want to be with her, no one can break you up. Otherwise, you should make it clear with Yuzhen as soon as possible." Mrs. Ye stared at Lin Shen and said slowly.

"Mrs. Ye, you are right. If I just want to use her as a tool, it is really unfair to her." Lin Shen looked at Mrs. Ye and said calmly, "But please believe me, I have feelings for Yu Zhen, but there are some things I can't help. If I marry Yu Zhen, one day my brothers and sisters are waiting for me to save their lives and need me to fight for my life, how do you think I should deal with it?"

"It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. You can endure or wait until you have the ability to solve the problem without taking risks, then solve the problem. If you can't put Yu Zhen first, then you shouldn't provoke her." Mrs. Ye said.

Although Lin Shen wanted to refute Mrs. Ye, he knew in his heart that Mrs. Ye was not wrong.

Ye Yuzhen was not what he had imagined before, not a real bad girl. It could even be said that Lin Shen was somewhat moved by her, which made him hesitate.

"Mrs. Ye, can you give me some time? I need to think carefully." Lin Shen said thoughtfully.

"Time is not given by others." Mrs. Ye said lightly.

"Thank you for your protection, madam. I'll take my leave now." Lin Shen stood up and saluted. The reason why Madam Ye knew that he and the Black-capped Mushroom Beast had teamed up to kill Zheng Guyuan was probably because she wanted to protect him in secret. At least she had no hostility towards him.

Being able to possess an ability that Zheng Guyuan could not discover, his strength must be no less than Zheng Guyuan. If Madam Ye wanted to harm him, she had too many opportunities at that time.

"Go ahead. Wait until you've thought it through. If you really want to be with Yuzhen, no one in the Ye family will stop you. Before that, don't meet Yuzhen again." Mrs. Ye said calmly.

Lin Shen said nothing and turned and left.

After leaving the Ye family's gate, Lin Shen laughed bitterly at himself: "I want to take advantage, but I don't want to take responsibility. I am indeed a scumbag."

He understood what Mrs. Ye meant. Mrs. Ye's meaning was the same as that of his brothers and sisters. She wanted him to stay at home and be a rich man without worrying about anything outside.

If it were in the past, Lin Shen would have readily agreed. He had lived that kind of life for twenty years and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He was willing to continue. It was pretty good to live that way for the rest of his life.

But what Fourth Brother said when he came back in the middle of the night that day made Lin Shen realize that his brothers might be in big trouble.

Although he didn't know what kind of trouble it was or how big it was, he couldn't just pretend he knew nothing and continue to muddle along with a clear conscience.

"It's still not strong enough. I have to become stronger quickly." Lin Shen muttered to himself.
