Family Cultivation: Many Children, Many Blessings

Chapter 107 Reluctant?
Faced with Lin Changyue's questioning, Jin Chuyi was at a loss for words and hesitated for a long time before finally being unable to speak.

Do you prefer Lin Qingchan or Yan Yunxiu?

This problem doesn't actually exist.

He definitely likes Lin Qingchan.

Although there was an element of deliberate intent in his approach to Lin Qingchan, part of the reason was to enable his family to form an alliance with the Lin family.

But Lin Qingchan did indeed attract him.

Moreover, after spending so many years together, the two had developed feelings for each other, and he truly regarded Lin Qingchan as his Daoist partner.

But what about Yan Yunxiu?
It's not that he dislikes it.

Putting aside their childhood friendship, the return of Yan Yunxiu has rekindled his passion.

In his eyes, Yan Yunxiu was now too dazzling.

Not only did he become a disciple of a Core Formation True Person from the Myriad Elephants Merchant Guild, holding a noble status, but his cultivation level also surpassed his, making him a Foundation Establishment cultivator!
Moreover, the adult Hou Yanyunxiu was poised and elegant, with an exceptional appearance that was no less than that of Lin Qingchan.

How could he not be moved by the fact that such a privileged young woman still remembered him and was willing to fulfill the marriage agreement they made when they were children?
So now Jin Chuwei is facing the same situation as back then.

The Jin family warmly welcomed Yan Yunxiu and hoped that he could rekindle his relationship with her. It seemed that he was being pressured by his family and making a choice for their sake.

But in truth, he was willing to do so.

"I... Uncle, I would like to talk to Qingchan about this in person, is that alright?" Jin Chuwei did not dare to express his opinion clearly, and could only hope to persuade Lin Qingchan to understand his 'difficult situation'.

Seeing Jin Chuwei's ambiguous and hesitant attitude, Lin Changyue suppressed the urge to flatten the kid on the spot and sneered, "Alright! Get lost. Don't let me see you again!"

Jin Chuwei quickly explained, "Uncle, my feelings for Qingchan have never changed. I still love her!"

"You love Qingchan, but you can't give up Yan Yunxiu, right?" Lin Changyue said coldly.

“I…” Jin Chuwei remained silent.

boom!
"I'll say it one last time, you can get lost! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." Lin Changyue's aura surged, and a powerful pressure spread out.

"Uncle, even if I have to leave, I still need to make things clear with Qingchan..."

Sweat dripped down Jin Chuwei's forehead, but he maintained a deeply affectionate expression.

Lin Changyue laughed in anger.

That bastard has already chosen Yan Yunxiu in his heart and betrayed his own daughter, yet he still dares to pretend to be a devoted lover in front of me?
"You're ignoring what I said?!"

Lin Changyue channeled his magical power and slapped Jin Chuwei with his palm.

"Brother Changyue, please have mercy!"

Upon seeing this, Jin Gaoyuan quickly flashed to his nephew Jin Chuwei's side, and surrounded the two of them with a protective shield of magic.

He could tell that Lin Changyue's attack was not intended to kill, but rather an act of anger intended to teach Jin Chuwei a lesson.

But he was still a Foundation Establishment Realm expert, and a single blow from him would be enough to give Jin Chuwei, who was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, a serious injury.

To Jin Gaoyuan's surprise, even though he took action and protected himself with a magical shield, when Lin Changyue's giant magical palm landed, he immediately groaned, felt a tightness in his chest, and took two steps back before stopping.

They suffered a considerable loss.

'Such powerful magic! It's even stronger than mine!'

'How many years has he been at the Foundation Establishment stage? Only five or six years, right? How come he seems to have already reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage? I established my Foundation Establishment more than ten years earlier than him, yet I'm still inferior to him!'

'This Lin Fu Master's cultivation talent is incredibly fast? After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, his momentum is even stronger than during the Qi Refining stage?'

'At this rate, wouldn't it take about ten years to reach the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment?'

A multitude of thoughts surged through Jin Gaoyuan's mind in an instant. He was already quite wary of the Lin family, and now he felt even more troubled.

His thoughts were the same as Jin Chuwei's... no, they were even more resolute than Jin Chuwei's!

Between the Lin family and the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce, the Jin family will definitely choose the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce without hesitation!
As long as Jin Chuwei can marry Yan Yunxiu and establish a relationship with the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce, the Jin family's crisis will not only be eliminated instantly, but they will even reach a higher level than when they were at their peak!

Once Jin Chuwei has established himself in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce, he will gradually place more members of the Jin family into the Chamber of Commerce.

At that time, even the Xuanbing Hall will no longer be able to target the Jin family!

The Kim family has been directly promoted to a 'multinational' family!
However, the Jin family is determined to have Jin Chuwei marry Yan Yunxiu, but it would be best not to offend the Lin family, which is currently in a strong position.

It's better to have more friends than more enemies.

It would be best if we could part ways amicably.

Just as Jin Gaoyuan was thinking about how to appease Lin Changyue and annul the engagement...

"You still dare to block? Let's see if you can block this time!"

Lin Changyue also moved swiftly, getting up and approaching.

This time, he did not use his magic power. Instead, he suddenly activated the Dragon Blood Bone Tempering Technique. A fierce aura revived within his body, and a red, glass-like light flowed across his skin. He seemed to grow taller by a head out of thin air. His punch was like a thunderbolt, and the wind from the punch made the air in the room whistle.

Upon seeing this, Jin Gaoyuan, who was in the lead, widened his eyes. A sense of impending doom enveloped his entire body. While activating his defensive magic weapon, he shouted in terror, "Brother Changyue, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

boom!
The defensive artifact shattered instantly.

Lin Changyue changed his fist into a palm and casually flicked it. The two members of the Jin family, whether they were in the Qi Refining Realm or the Foundation Establishment Realm, were sent flying backward like ordinary people, spitting out blood. Just as Lin Changyue was about to teach them a lesson further...

A lithe figure quickly arrived and called out, "Father, let them go."

The visitor was none other than Lin Qingchan.

Lin Qingchan was no longer as cheerful as usual; she had matured a lot, but she didn't seem sad at all.

Upon seeing his daughter arrive, Lin Changyue said, "Qingchan, I already know what happened. That Jin family brat is fickle and heartless. He dared to bully you, so today I will avenge you!"

Lin Qingchan came to Lin Changyue's side, took his arm, and said, "Father, there's no need for this. If word gets out that you're doing this, people will think that I, Lin Qingchan, am clinging to the Jin family because I can't get married and insist on marrying them! Didn't I tell Mother that I want to take the initiative to break off the engagement? I misjudged him. This Jin Chuwei is not good enough for me and is not worthy of my affection."

Jin Chuwei, enduring the burning pain on his face and ignoring the swelling and tightness in his chest, quickly stood up. Looking at Lin Qingchan with deep affection and guilt, he pleaded, "Chan'er, please give me a chance to explain. My feelings for you have never changed. You still hold a very important place in my heart. Things have come to this point against my will. If I were alone, I would leave with you without hesitation, even if it meant fleeing to the ends of the earth..."

"Stop!" Lin Qingchan rolled her eyes and waved her hand, saying, "Even if you were willing, I'm not now! When we got together, I made it very clear to you that what I liked about you was your decisiveness, your focus, and your unwavering commitment once you set your mind on something, regardless of any gossip or rumors. Now look at yourself, which of these qualities do you still possess? From the moment you started wavering between me and Yan Yunxiu, unable to make a decision, I already made the decision for you!"

"So please don't feel wronged or sorry for me! Because you are no longer good enough for me! It's not that you've let me down or abandoned me, but that I don't like you!"

"Go back and wait for me to come and annul the engagement!"

Jin Chu was momentarily stunned by Lin Qingchan's series of rebuttals.

This was completely different from what he had expected.

In his imagination, Lin Qingchan must be in great pain right now, secretly shedding tears, her heart filled with turmoil, wanting to be with him, yet unable to accept Yan Yunxiu's existence.

After some persuasion, he will give Lin Qingchan two choices.

Either accept Yan Yunxiu and marry him together; or the two part ways amicably and return to being friends.

Little did he know that Lin Qingchan's reaction was completely different from what he had imagined!
"Chan'er, I know you were just saying that out of anger..." Jin Chuwei was unwilling to give up and wanted to try again.

"Talking nonsense? Jin Chuwei, I just don't like you right now, I look down on you, don't make me feel disgusted by you, okay?" Lin Qingchan sneered, "If you still don't leave, then I'll have to ask my father to take action and make you leave!"

Upon seeing this, Jin Gaoyuan quickly cupped his hands and said, "No matter what, our Jin family was at fault first. We are extremely grateful to Brother Changyue and Miss Lin for being willing to dissolve the engagement. As for the annulment, there is no need. Consider the engagement ceremony as our apology."

After saying that, he pulled Jin Chuwei away.

Just as he turned around, he heard Lin Changyue's voice behind him: "My Lin family will definitely cancel the engagement, and the engagement gift money will be returned in full!"

……

A moment after the Jin family left, Lin Qingchan, who had been very calm, suddenly had tears in her eyes.

Tears welled up in my eyes, but didn't fall.

Seeing this, Lin Changyue sighed and said, "If you want to cry, just cry. Don't hold it in. You don't have to pretend in front of your father."

"Wow!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingchan could no longer hold back and buried her face in Lin Changyue's arms, weeping bitterly.

Lin Changyue didn't say anything to comfort her, he just gently patted his daughter's shoulder.

Known daughter Moruofu.

He guessed from the beginning that Lin Qingchan was definitely not as relaxed and carefree as she appeared on the surface.

If she had truly let go, as carefree as she claimed, then when she returned to Qixing Island Market these past few days, she wouldn't have refused to say anything when her mother, Ding Qingxue, asked her why she wanted to annul the engagement, keeping everything a secret.

Clearly, she cares about this very much.

A relationship that lasted for several years.

From childhood to adulthood.

Although Lin Qingchan is used to being the eldest sister, strong and proud, she has always valued relationships the most.

How can it be cut so easily?

After crying for a long time, Lin Qingchan finally raised her head, wiped away her tears, stubbornly raised her chin, and looked at Lin Changyue, saying, "Alright, I'm fine now!"

Lin Changyue patted his daughter's head and asked with a soft laugh, "Are you really alright?"

Lin Qingchan pouted and said, "There's still a little bit of a problem, but it's not a big deal. I'll be fully recovered in a while."

"Sigh..." Lin Changyue asked seriously, "Qingchan, do you still love that Jin family boy?"

Lin Qingchan shook her head and said earnestly, "Father, I really don't like Jin Chuwei anymore. He's so indecisive. Whether it's because of the other person's status, family, or some other reason, since he's not so determined to marry me, I definitely won't marry him! A man like that isn't worth my affection..."

Seeing Lin Changyue's somewhat distrustful expression, Lin Qingchan said anxiously, "What I said is all true, I didn't lie to you, Father! The reason I cried just now was because I couldn't bear to part with this relationship and the experiences I had over the past few years, not because I still had any lingering feelings for Jin Chuwei! What's so great about Jin Chuwei? Am I, the daughter of the dignified genius talisman master Lin Changyue, supposed to be heartbroken for a mere member of the Jin family?"

Lin Changyue believed it now.

Nodding, he laughed loudly, "Well said! What is the Jin family anyway? Do they even deserve to look down on my daughter? Do they need to waver and make a difficult choice?"

"Take care of yourself and calm down. Once you've completely calmed down in a few days, I'll take you to the Jin family in person to annul the engagement!"

"We must let everyone know that the Jin family is unworthy of the Lin family, and that Jin Chuwei is unworthy of you!"

"It was we who initiated the annulment of the engagement!"
