“It’s alright!” Manstein said. “As far as I know, there are two other people in the world who understand this man. Besides Chu Zihang, Su Xiaoyan is the most easily overlooked person. This woman also knows Chu Tianjiao quite well, so your investigation should also start with Su Xiaoyan!”
Lin Chen nodded in agreement, thinking to himself that he thought the same thing.
Although Su Xiaoyan is in her thirties, she still retains her charm and looks like she's in her twenties. As a dancer, she looks like a big star.
Even if Manstein hadn't said it, I still wanted to get to know him better.
Just as Lin Chen hung up the phone with the academy, his phone rang again.
Three large characters on the screen: Su Xiaoyan!
As expected, Lin Chen answered the phone.
"Hey! Lin Chen! Where are you?" Su Xiaoyan asked anxiously.
"What's wrong, Sister Su?"
"Come quick! Zihang is not right, I feel like he's about to die!"
Lin Chen frowned, thinking to himself that this shouldn't be the case.
After Chu Zihang and I separated, apart from learning about the world of dragons, he should still live a normal life.
His bloodline is currently stable, and nothing unexpected is likely to happen.
It couldn't be Odin coming to us, could it? That would be even more strange. Gungnir left its mark on us, so even if Odin appeared, he should be looking for us.
Lin Chen quickly asked, "Sister Su, don't worry, what exactly happened? Tell me in detail!"
Su Xiaoyan was so anxious she was almost crying: "I don't know how to say it, but I'm about to die, please come quickly!"
Lin Chen was at a loss. When this woman panicked, she became completely illogical, and he couldn't get anything out of her now.
Lin Chen had no choice but to rush out of the room and drive his Porsche straight to Chu Zihang's house.
The Porsche sped along the road, and in less than ten minutes, Lin Chen arrived at Chu Zihang's house.
Lin Chen rushed into the villa and saw Su Xiaoyan sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
Upon seeing Lin Chen approach, Su Xiaoyan quickly stood up and threw herself into his arms.
"Little brother... little brother, you've come too!"
Lin Chen gently patted Su Xiaoyan's back: "Don't worry, what happened?"
Su Xiaoyan sobbed, "I don't know what's wrong. He's been staying in his room for the past two days and hasn't come out. He looks like he's gone mad. I asked him why he wasn't going to school, and he said he wasn't feeling well. He's not playing basketball anymore, and he's not eating much. It's like he's going on a hunger strike!"
Lin Chen frowned slightly: "That's it?"
"Huh?" Su Xiaoyan was still extremely flustered. "What? What happened to him?"
Lin Chen helplessly rubbed Su Xiaoyan's head. From what she said, Chu Zihang was at most a little depressed.
However, considering that Su Xiaoyan is a mother after all, she doesn't have much experience in taking care of children, so she just panics and doesn't know what to do.
Lin Chen could only say, "It's alright, I'll go check on him."
Su Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you came. You must help me persuade him to at least eat something!"
"Don't worry, I'm here, the problem will definitely be solved!"
Lin Chen nodded affirmatively to Su Xiaoyan, and Su Xiaoyan subconsciously grasped Lin Chen's hand.
No woman can resist the feeling of finding support and hope when she is most helpless.
Lin Chen turned around and walked towards Chu Zihang's room on the second floor.
The door to the room was closed, and Lin Chen knocked softly.
No one responded from inside, so Lin Chen simply pushed the door open and went in.
Chu Zihang sat at the table, on which was a photo of Chu Tianjiao.
He was in a daze, probably missing this man.
Lin Chen, however, only wanted to slap Chu Zihang.
"Chu Zihang..."
Chu Zihang suddenly turned around: "Senior...you're here!"
Lin Chen walked to the table: "Your father isn't dead yet! There's no need to rush to set up a memorial tablet for him! The photo is right in the middle, why don't you light some incense?"
"Ah, this..." Chu Zihang was taken aback, and then realized that he might have been a bit presumptuous.
Seeing an object is one thing, but he's making it sound like a ritual.
Lin Chen picked up Chu Tianjiao's photo, which was Chu Zihang's treasured possession.
He missed this man deeply, so he kept this photo hidden.
"Senior, you're saying my dad isn't dead?"
Lin Chen slapped Chu Zihang across the face: "I told you on the night of the typhoon that your father might not die!"
Chu Zihang subconsciously touched his head, still sitting there blankly, and finally smiled after a long while.
"Alright!" Lin Chen sat down next to Chu Zihang. "If there's anything else you don't understand, just say it."
Chu Zihang hesitated for a moment: "I want... revenge!"
“Easy!” Lin Chen blurted out. “The people from Kassel College will arrive in the next couple of days. After passing the assessment, you will become a prospective student of the college, and from then on, you will join the dragon-slaying team!”
"Really?" Chu Zihang clenched his fist, his interest in Kassel College reaching its peak at this moment.
Lin Chen patted Chu Zihang on the shoulder: "Grow slowly, study hard, and one day you will have the strength to stand opposite Odin!"
Chu Zihang was clearly encouraged. He was unaware of the gap between himself and Odin, and simply thought that this kind of thing was like studying, where as long as you work hard, you will reap the rewards.
"Thank you, senior! I understand!" Chu Zihang nodded emphatically.
"Good, now go eat. Your mom's worried sick about you!"
Chu Zihang was taken aback: "Huh?"
Lin Chen thought for a moment and said, "To be precise, it's not that I'm worried about you to death, it's that I'm worried you'll die!"
"I am dead?"
Lin Chen shrugged: "Your mom called me in a panic, saying you were about to die and insisted that I come over to see what was going on. I thought you were being targeted by Odin, but it turns out you were just having an emo episode."
"I..." Chu Zihang opened his mouth, but it took him a long time to utter a few words, "I'm sorry, senior."
Lin Chen waved his hand: "You're an adult now. If you want to protect others, you have to make sure they don't worry about you first!"
Chu Zihang was momentarily stunned, but then his gaze toward Lin Chen was filled with gratitude.
Although he is introverted, he is a very sensitive person.
"Thank you, senior. I understand."
Lin Chen nodded: "Get ready, I'll go downstairs and let your mother know I'm safe."
"Okay, I'll take a shower and then go downstairs!"
Lin Chen descended the stairs step by step, where Su Xiaoyan was waiting at the top.
"how's it going?"
"It's all settled," Lin Chen said. "No problem. Young people sometimes have questions they can't understand, but once you explain it to them clearly, the problem is solved!"

"That's good, that's good!" Su Xiaoyan was overjoyed and immediately hugged Lin Chen's arm. "You're such a good brother, you solved the problem in no time!"
Lin Chen flicked Su Xiaoyan's forehead with his finger: "But you, you panic over such a small thing."
"Oh dear, I was in such a hurry back then, I could only think of you!" Su Xiaoyan pulled Lin Chen to sit on the sofa. "Little brother, you're amazing! You helped me solve such a big problem, come and let your big sister give you a kiss!"
Before Lin Chen could react, Su Xiaoyan planted a kiss on his cheek.
Lin Chen looked at Su Xiaoyan in surprise: "Sister, is this how you usually thank people?"
"What? You're still not satisfied with this gratitude!"
Lin Chen smiled slightly: "If it's a small matter, then of course I'm satisfied. You just said that Chu Zihang was about to die, and I saved him. You can't just send me away with this thanks!"
"Then tell me what you want!" Su Xiaoyan hooked her arm around Lin Chen's and rubbed against him casually.
Lin Chen put his mouth close to Su Xiaoyan's ear and whispered something.
Su Xiaoyan lightly punched Lin Chen's chest: "Oh, so you're trying to take advantage of your older sister!"
"That depends on whether Sister Su is willing to thank me!"
"Oh! Of course I should thank you!" Su Xiaoyan said. "Chu Zihang will be down soon!"
"He still needs to take a shower, we have time..."
Before Lin Chen could finish speaking, Su Xiaoyan grabbed him by the collar and gave him a deep kiss.
……
The water in the bathroom was gushing out. Chu Zihang stood in front of the mirror, letting the water wash over his hair and body.
He hasn't eaten properly in the past two days, and he hasn't even taken a shower.
Fortunately, with Lin Chen's encouragement, Chu Zihang's condition improved significantly.
