Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 112 Beibei's Visit, Nighttime Conversation

Now that things have come to this, all the couples who were supposed to be paired up at the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event have become a couple.

Subsequently, under the guidance of Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan, this year's Poseidon's Fate Blind Date Event came to a close.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er returned to the Sea God Pavilion hand in hand.

Zhang Lexuan, Lin Chen, and the workers hired by Shrek Academy were packing up the remaining items.

"Lin Chen, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Lexuan bent over and said to Lin Chen as she packed her things.

"It's nothing, don't be so formal. I still owe Sister Lexuan a lot!" Lin Chen said with a smile.

After tidying up for a while, Zhang Lexuan said to Lin Chen, "You can go back first. I'll take care of the rest with the staff."

Lin Chen thought about it for a moment, and without being coy, he agreed.

"Okay, then I'll head back now."

"Okay, bye-bye."

Lin Chen then headed towards the dormitory.

Since Zhou Mingxing is already a disciple of the inner academy, he lives there as well.

Zhou Mingxing was worried that Lin Chen would be lonely and was even hesitating about whether to move to the inner courtyard.

But who is Lin Chen? Someone with the Angel Space by his side would love to live alone in the dormitory!

So Lin Chen comforted him, "It's alright. I've lived alone for many years and I'm used to it. Go if you want to."

Zhou Mingxing then went to the accommodation arranged for him in the inner courtyard.

This is perfectly understandable. As long as it doesn't affect the brotherly relationship, it's perfectly normal for them to pursue better material conditions.

This is good for both of us. You can live a more comfortable life, and I can go to my cultivation space to increase my cultivation level. Why not?

After walking a short distance, Lin Chen saw a figure sitting on a bench under a big tree.

Lin Chen recognized the figure; it was Bei Bei, who had participated in the Soul Fighting Tournament with him.

"Lin Chen." Bei Bei stood up and spoke first.

"Senior Bei, what a coincidence," Lin Chen greeted in response.

However, Beibei shook her head and said, "Unfortunately, I was waiting for you here specifically."

Lin Chen was now also puzzled and asked, "I wonder what business Senior Bei has with me?"

"It's nothing much, I just wanted to chat with you," Beibei said.

Lin Chen: ?

You said before that it was unfortunate and that you waited specifically for me, but now you say it's nothing, we just wanted to chat.

What on earth is going on here?

"I didn't expect my junior to reach the Soul Saint level so quickly. I, as his senior, am truly ashamed of myself!" Bei Bei said with a smile as she sat back down on the bench.

But Lin Chen could see a hint of bitterness mixed in with that smile.

"Sit down," Beibei said to Lin Chen, gesturing to the seat next to her.

Since they've come knocking on his door, and there's no deep-seated grudge between them, Lin Chen can't possibly treat them coldly.

"Just lucky."

Lin Chen sat down next to Bei Bei.

"Senior Bei, you might as well speak your mind."

Before Bei Bei could ask anything, Lin Chen said to himself, "Just now I saw a hint of bitterness in Bei Bei's smile. I guess something is bothering him."

Beibei sighed softly and said, "Back then, my sister's family was caught up in the empire's struggle, which led to the destruction of her family and the death of her members. At the critical moment, Xuanzu intervened and saved her, and brought her to Shrek Academy to be adopted."

Oh, right, you don't know my great-grandfather, do you? My great-grandfather was the previous head of the Sea God Pavilion, the Dragon God Douluo Mu En, and my sister is the senior sister of the inner courtyard. You were just standing together hosting the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event!

When Bei Bei said the word "sister," Lin Chen knew who he was talking about, but he didn't interrupt him and just listened quietly.

At that moment, Lin Chen simply nodded.

Beibei continued, "After Xuanzu brought her back, he made a promise with my sister that she would marry me in the future. I know that my sister had fallen in love with me while raising me, but I have always only regarded her as my own sister, even closer than my own sister."

"So, after all, she's not my biological sister, is she?" Lin Chen said.

Beibei said with a bitter expression, "Later, I met Xiaoya, who was also your senior, but she's not in the academy now. The moment I met Xiaoya, I fell hopelessly in love with her. So, I'm sorry, sister."

Originally, I planned that if I hadn't met the person I loved by the time I reached my sister's age, I would follow the wishes of the Ancestor and marry her, so that at least she could be happy with me. However, I met someone I couldn't follow the wishes of the Ancestor and my sister. The Ancestor didn't say anything and supported me, but my sister was bound by this vow and planned to remain unmarried for life. I'm sorry to her.

"So, senior, you called me here just to talk about this?" Lin Chen asked.

"Do you like your older sister?" Beibei asked in return.

Lin Chen did not deny it, but nodded slightly.

Seeing Lin Chen nod, Bei Bei became excited and grabbed Lin Chen's arm, asking, "Will you be with my sister? I don't want her to never get married and grow old alone."

Hearing Beibei's words, Lin Chen immediately became a little unhappy.

This is exactly the kind of behavior that Tang Shenwang likes! Forcibly interfering in and meddling in other people's relationships, judging everything based on his own standards of right and wrong.

If you say there isn't, then where did that stupid plot from Qiankun Wenqing Valley come from?

Lin Chen said with some displeasure, "Senior Bei, everyone has their own choices. Once a choice is made, one must bear the corresponding consequences—that's what's called cause and effect. I like Sister Le Xuan, but I can't force her; it has to be her own choice. But you, right now, are forcing me to be with Sister Le Xuan. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Although Lin Chen knew that Bei Bei's intentions were good and that she was thinking of Zhang Lexuan, he disliked this behavior from the bottom of his heart, just like Tang Shenwang.

"But all I want is for my sister to be happy!" Beibei retorted.

Whether she's happy or not isn't up to you; it's her decision. As her closest relative, do you really have the right to interfere with her choices?

After hearing Lin Chen's words, Bei Bei calmed down and began to think about what Lin Chen had said.

About ten minutes later, Beibei raised her head again, her eyes now showing their usual calm and collected demeanor, and said, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt."

"Everyone has their own choices. As outsiders, all we can do is encourage and support them, not interfere."

"I see."

Lin Chen got a little excited and continued, "I will pursue Sister Le Xuan, but whether she is willing or not is her own choice, and no one can interfere."

"Then I wish you success in advance!" Beibei extended her hand to Lin Chen.

Just as Lin Chen was about to grab it, a silver light flashed, passing between Lin Chen and Bei Bei, and struck the big tree behind them.

Both of them had a small clump of hair knocked out.

Lin Chen sighed. The thin veil between him and Zhang Lexuan had finally been broken.
