On the eve of the Spring Festival, Lin Huai got into the car to Chu Tianshu's hometown.

He was wearing a gray coat with a white sweater inside, a gray woolen cap on his head, and a furry scarf wrapped around his neck—that scarf was bought for him by Chu Tianshu, and at the end of the scarf there was a very Decent cat paw prints.

Different from being able to use the power of Specter in the game, in reality, Lin Huai, who is almost the same as a human when he doesn't use his power, is very afraid of cold - perhaps it is still because of his supernatural power, his body temperature is too low. Low temperature and temperature also drain faster than ordinary people. This directly caused Lin Huai to have a little chills, so at night Chu Tianshu had to sacrifice himself and sleep with the cold Lin Huai in his arms.

Of course, Lin Huai also pays attention to keeping warm during the day. Apart from the chills, he is also thinking of social and public safety with a selfless heart. Otherwise, if the body temperature was accidentally measured to be only 29 degrees, what a huge disturbance would it cause.

It took more than three hours to drive from the city where the two lived to the Chu family's old house. Chu Tianshu was in charge of driving, and Lin Huai also made adequate preparations for these three hours. As soon as he got in the car, he put on his earmuffs and hat, buried himself in the soft coral fleece blanket, and started to doze off with lightning speed.

——Actually, he shouldn’t have been so sleepy, but it was snowing last night, and it was too cold for him to fall asleep. He couldn’t help but burrowed into the heat source next to him, and then…

It miserably went off on fire. Although Lin Huai still grabbed Chu Tianshu's shoulder during the process, he said in horror, "Aren't we going to see the parents tomorrow? Don't make a mark."

However, judging from the results, his persuasion was of no use, and he did not succeed in getting an OOCdirtytalk from Chu Tianshu, "Did you find that you looked like a shy newlywed daughter-in-law just now?"

After more than two hours, the car stopped in the service area after refueling. Lin Huai finally woke up.

He was very obedient and silent when he was dozing, and started various activities when he woke up. After the car got off the highway and drove into the city where the Chu family was located, Lin Huai got out of the blanket and started looking around, asking countless questions. Chu Tianshu finally couldn't hold back and wrote lightly at the red light: "Calm down, don't drill around me like a cat."

Lin Huai: "Oh."

Lin Huai's face was still a little red from the heat when he got out of the car. As soon as Chu Tianshu got out of the car, a servant stopped the car for him. He was wearing a long black coat, standing beside Lin Huai, his expression was cold and noble, like a real eldest young master, and then...

He secretly pinched Lin Huai's face in a place where the servants could not see.

Lin Huai:  …

The Chu family is indeed very big. What you see when you enter the door is the huge garden, followed by the main building, many small buildings, the dojo used for training and the pasture that is enough for horse racing in the back mountain. Its shape shows a strong ancient garden style—— It is said that this mansion has also been handed down from ancient times. When people are here, they seem to have strayed into a certain studio. Lin Huai followed Chu Tianshu behind the waiter, feeling as if he was a group performer who had gone the wrong way.

Of course, this feeling disappeared after seeing the surveillance cameras installed in the corners of the carved veranda.

"These few days are the busiest time for the Chu family's old house," Chu Tianshu said to him. "On New Year's Eve, all the clansmen gather together to listen to the important speech of the clan chief, share dinner, and then from the first to the third day of the new year, will also There are all kinds of clansmen who come to pay New Year's greetings..."

Seeing Lin Huai's face getting paler and paler, Chu Tianshu shrugged and said, "Of course, we only come back to see my dad, don't worry about the rest."

Lin Huai's face eased back, showing a relaxed smile from social fear: "Yeah!"

The more he walked, the more he felt that Chu Tianshu's position in the Chu family was indeed very strange. Along the way, many Chu family members passed them by. They greeted him after seeing Chu Tianshu, and looked back at him frequently after leaving. However, Chu Tianshu did not change his color and heart, until he reached a small building.

Father Chu was now in the study on the second floor, and Chu Tianshu went in first. Lin Huai sat outside in the living room, playing with his fingers boredly.

In addition to him in the living room, there were several guests sitting in the distance, who seemed to be separated from each other. When Chu Tianshu came in, they couldn't stop staring at him. Now, after Chu Tianshu went to the study, he secretly stared at Lin Huai.

Lin Huai heard their whispers.

"The one just now... is the eldest young master? Why did he come back?"

"The eldest young master has rarely appeared at home over the years, but it is enough for the eldest young lady to inherit the family..."

"I heard that the eldest young master brought his love back to show the patriarch."

"The eldest young master has indeed reached the age of starting a family. Which family's young lady is that? From the Cheng family, the Zhang family, the Gu family? Or which small family?"

"No, I heard that person is an outsider. Unlike us, he is not a Celestial Master."

"Not a Celestial Master?? An ordinary person?? Let an ordinary person marry into the Chu family?"

"But now the eldest young master doesn't often play in the family..."

"That's different. Since he is the blood of the Chu family, whether he leaves the Chu family or not, he bears the fate of the bloodline. This also means that even if he leaves the Chu family, there will often be supernatural events and ghosts haunting him, and these events It also affects the people closest to him."

an old man said.

"For an ordinary person, being with people like us, sooner or later... will lead to disaster! Back then, Gu You... She was a member of the Gu family, but she seldom came into contact with magic, so she was already like this... not to mention a What about an ordinary person? After all, Chu Tianshu is the only son of the head of the family, so I'm afraid it will bring..."

"Shen Sha Lone Star..."

"But it's right for the family to let Chu Tianyu inherit the position of the head of the family." A cold-faced young man said, "Chu Tianshu is indeed a very strange person. Who didn't know that he died when he was five years old. My own mother? But Chu Tianyu is a woman to be the head of the house, and it is difficult to support her alone. She has to rely on the 'help' of our collateral."

"Speaking of which, a five-year-old child, who stayed in the same well with his mother's body for three days, could not cry or make trouble. It is really frightening."

"It's still unclear what the reason for that incident was. But I heard that the Gu family is best at calculating fate. Although it is said that Gu Youruo has never been exposed to those Taoism techniques since she was a child, it may be that she originally He will disappear because he has counted the child's fate."

"That ordinary person may not live for a few years. If I were him, I would stay away from that girl."

Lin Huai listened to their conversation with great interest, and rattled his knuckles.

"Ordinary people... It's a pity that I'm not even a human being." He said to himself.

"Hey, which family are you from? I haven't seen you before." The young man who said that Chu Tianshu was a lonely star found Lin Huai who was sitting quietly in the corner and frowned. " I've never heard of other people coming today, where did you come from?"

He looked at Lin Huai with suspicion on his face.

"First, I don't call him hello." Lin Huai scratched his ears with his fingers and said, "Second, I'm a sideline of the Chu family, if you want to call me by my name..."

youth:?

Lin Huai: "You can call me Chu Yuxun."

The young man was obviously chilled by his words. He raised his eyebrows high and said, "In the end..."

The waiter in black appeared on the first floor. He first looked at the young man and said politely to him, "Mr. Chu Xun, I'm sorry to bother you for waiting."

The young man stopped looking at Lin Huai and turned around proudly. He looked at the waiter with a respectful look again, nodded and said, "It's not a long wait, but I didn't know the eldest young master came back suddenly."

"I'm really bothering you to make this trip. It's just that the patriarch and the young master have not seen each other for a long time. They want to have a good reminiscence, so today, I'm afraid I'm not very free." The waiter said with a smile, "But don't worry, sir, the room where you are staying has been cleaned up for a few people. Well, there is a hot spring in the mansion, you can rest here for a good night and discuss matters tomorrow."

"This..." The young man had no choice but to agree, "Thank you for the arrangement of the patriarch."

He came here this time because he heard that Chu Tianyu might inherit the position of the patriarch in the next few years, becoming one of the few female patriarchs in the history of the Chu family. With this in mind, he moved his mind and wanted to use her gender to do something.

But since the patriarch was not free today, he had no choice but to do so. The young man was about to return in disappointment when he heard the waiter respectfully say to the little white face next to him, who was wearing thick clothes even in the room: "Mr. Lin, the patriarch, please come up. The patriarch and the young master Tianshu are waiting for you. ."

youth:? ? ?

He watched helplessly as the young man who called himself "Chu Yuxun" yawned and followed the waiter upstairs as if half complaining. And the remaining few people, after a long silence, suddenly said: "Speaking of which, Master Tianshu...Did you bring someone back?"

"That person...could it be...that's it???"

Youth: ... When I pushed open the door of the study on the second floor, I heard a voice coming from inside.

"Patriarch Zhang is getting worse and worse these days. I heard that he wants Zhang Mingge to inherit the title of patriarch, but there are other opinions in the clan. In fact, the patriarch Zhang is a very good young man with great ideas, but unfortunately The health has always been bad. Now their clan is in chaos, and the Cheng family may not be able to help. "

"The Cheng family is a mess. Cheng Yu'an, Cheng Yubao, and the children all have their own thoughts. Maybe the Cheng family itself is betting on several sides."

"Indeed, ghosts appear more and more frequently now. Maybe people who practice magic shouldn't have too much involvement in the secular world."

"Dad, don't talk about it. Who made the Moments in the middle of the night complaining about losing the World Cup bet? I think you are involved too."

The atmosphere inside was unbelievably cheerful. When Lin Huai walked in, what he saw was two heads looking at him——

One is from Chu Tianshu, and the other is from Chu Tianshu's father, Chu Xingkuo.

Chu Tianshu and Chu Xingkuo don't look very similar, Chu Xingkuo is tougher, Chu Tianshu looks more handsome. Lin Huai guessed that he might look more like his mother, Gu Youruo.

"Hello." Seeing Lin Huai coming in, Chu Xingkuo said, "Sit here."

He didn't seem to have any expression, but he looked very angry and arrogant.

The beginning of the exchange between the two was obviously very friendly, and unlike Chu Tianshu's sister, he immediately drew his sword and slashed as soon as he saw Lin Huai. Lin Huai then sat next to Chu Tianshu, and before he could sit firmly, he saw Chu Xingkuo instructing: "Bring the red envelope to classmate Xiaolin."

A red and bright red envelope fell into Lin Huai's hands, but its weight was very light. Dad Chu said: "The red envelope couldn't fit in, so I changed it. It's a check."

"That...Thank you uncle." Lin Huai tried his best to use the most well-behaved tone to thank him.

"You're welcome." Chu Xingkuo said, still looking at Lin Huai, as if looking at him.

After a long time, Chu Xingkuo finally smiled. He said to Chu Tianshu: "Your vision is very good."

"My vision is still fake? It's all good cabbage." Chu Tianshu compared himself to a pig without shame.

Lin Huai was also smiling hard, and being brought into this parent-like scene always made him feel that he was all overwhelmed. But now it seems that Chu Xingkuo is obviously very satisfied with his appearance as a well-behaved and pure male college student...

Then he heard Chu Tiankuo's voice.

"Above the red-clothed, at least the Specter, seems to even have the level of Sha. It is not easy to win the house, and after winning the house, the ability will go down a big step, so it may have been a top Sha before, or even a demon. Now If I want to subdue you now, it will take a lot of effort. Before you seize the house, you may need the entire Chu family, Cheng family and Zhang family to unite to seal you." Chu Tiankuo looked at Lin Huai. , with a very satisfied expression, "He is a promising young man!"

He praised Lin Huai's "strength" in a tone of "Zuckerberg founded Facebook while he was in college".

Lin Huai: ...? ? ?

"Not bad, very good!" Chu Xingkuo looked at Lin Huai, stroking his chin, his face full of love from his father-in-law, "Even if the house is seized, only the body is seized, and the moral level is also very high."

Lin Huai: ? ? ?

Chu Xingkuo: "Why did you get such a good cabbage?"

Lin Huai: ? ?

What happened next completely exceeded Lin Huai's plan.

What he thought he was going to accept was the observation and interrogation of the seven aunts and eight aunts, but what he actually accepted was that Chu Xingkuo was taken to the Chu family's underground shooting range to shoot targets.

"Record this data." Chu Xingkuo instructed the waiter next to him, and he put his eyes on the target plate, "Although the strength has been weakened, the accuracy is very high!"

Then, Chu Xingkuo expressed his satisfaction with Lin Huai along the way, and took him to visit the dungeon where the Chu family held ghosts.

"Our dungeons are very user-friendly. Every day, we send people from the Chu family who are good at persuasion to overthrow them. Some of them are also famous talk show artists. You can also see that for those bloodthirsty ghosts, we We will also provide fresh duck blood. Any ghosts who have been successfully converted by us will either be overthrown or work in the Chu family’s factory. You can see that the Chu family is very humane and not scary.”

Lin Huai: "...Uh, thank you for your kindness, although I don't have any sense of co-prosperity as a fellow."

"If the Cheng Zhang family wants to do something to you in the future, take out the token of the Chu family." Chu Xingkuo gave him a token, "With this, no one dares to do anything to you. Or, there is something wrong. Call the Chu family's special line..."

"Actually I'm not that vulnerable..."

"...In this way, someone will immediately come to clean up the crime scene and give you an alibi." Chu Xingkuo finished his last sentence.

...Lin Huai finally knew where those Chu Tianyu and other Chu family's protective and amusing characters came from.

After tossing and turning, Lin Huai finally lay back in the room at night. They will be staying here for a few days. This is the courtyard belonging to Chu Tianshu, and there are plum trees planted outside the house. Under the plum trees, there is an exclusive hot spring that is artificially drained.

"How do you feel?" Chu Tianshu asked him.

Lin Huai said: "Very good, my mind is very calm."

Chu Tianshu laughed. He looked at the stone covered with snow and the plum blossom petals falling on the stone, and said to Lin Huai, "Would you like to go to the hot spring?"

"Hot spring, it's okay. But the people in your family are really..."

"My father himself is a free lover, so he will bless us a little more." Chu Tianshu said, "Let's rest early, there are still things to do tomorrow."

"what's up?"

"Go and see Gu Youruo... the relics left behind."
