Chapter 116: Fiancée_3
Before Lin Zichen could respond, Zhang Wanxin, who was beside him, revealed a confused expression and said, “President Ma, I’m a bit lost by what you’re saying. Hasn’t Xiao Chen already enrolled in Evolution College?”
Upon hearing her say this, Ma Zhenhe became somewhat befuddled.
What’s going on?
This couple doesn’t know that their son has already joined Tianren Pavilion and then transferred to Martial Arts College?
At this moment, Lin Zichen looked towards his parents and explained, “Mom and Dad, I forgot to tell you, I joined Tianren Pavilion a few days ago and have now transferred to Martial Arts College to pursue the Pureblood Human Path.”
Upon hearing his explanation, the couple was stunned.
Immediately after, they felt nervous and scared, fearing their son had taken a wrong turn.
Tianren Pavilion had a notoriously bad reputation and had ruined many talents.
“Xiao Chen, what exactly is going on?”
Zhang Wanxin was the first to snap out of her daze, urgently asking Lin Zichen.
Seeing the anxious look on his parents’ faces, Lin Zichen cut a long story short and told them how he ended up joining Tianren Pavilion.
He said that he recognized the ideals of Tianren Pavilion.
Then, under the condition of the Martial Arts College President offering three times the benefits, he agreed to join Tianren Pavilion for half a year to try the Pureblood Human Path.
If there was no progress after half a year, he would return to Evolution College to pursue the Genetic Fusion Path.
After hearing this, Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin both breathed a sigh of relief.
It was only a trial for half a year.
And not an unwavering commitment to the Pureblood Human Path.
If it was just for half a year, it wouldn’t have too great of an impact on the Genetic Fusion Path, and this they could accept.
On the other hand, after listening to Lin Zichen’s recount, Ma Zhenhe frowned deeply.
Evolution College’s welfare package for the second-best exam ranking was already very generous, and it pained him to even offer that much.
That raised a question, where did the perennially impoverished Tianren Pavilion and Martial Arts College get the money to offer triple the benefits?
Ma Zhenhe was only somewhat puzzled and didn’t dwell on it too much.
Soon, he advised Lin Zichen:
“Zi Chen, while the triple benefits are indeed substantial, you must look at the bigger picture. These are all minor profits, and it’s not worth missing out on greater things.”
“Even though it’s just a trial for half a year and you can still come back to pursue the Genetic Fusion Path if it doesn’t work out, this short span of six months is enough to cause you to miss out on a lot of valuable knowledge—far more than what three times the benefits could make up for.”
“I’ve been at Shanhai University for so many years, and I’ve seen too many similar situations occur. Trust me, you won’t go wrong. There’s no need to waste that half a year.”
But in reality, there was no waste involved in just half a year’s time.
Mainly, he was worried that Lin Zichen, during his half-year stay at Tianren Pavilion, would be further swayed and brainwashed by Liu Chuanwu and end up like that Capital City second-best exam scorer from years past, fully immersed in the Pureblood Human Path and never turning back.
“Thank you for the advice, President Ma, but I presently very much endorse the ideals of Tianren Pavilion. If I don’t try it out, I’ll always be thinking about it later on, and it might even become a demon in my heart,” Lin Zichen asserted stubbornly.
Endorse the ideals?
No, it was the triple benefits that were too attractive.
Ma Zhenhe continued to urge.
Analyzing the pros and cons for Lin Zichen from various perspectives.
Yet, Lin Zichen still insisted on trying it for half a year.
Seeing his stubbornness, Ma Zhenhe didn’t want to plead fruitlessly, so he took his leave with a word of farewell.
There are top exam scorers every year; Evolution College wouldn’t lack just one.
If he could persuade him, good; if not, let it be.
It’s just a top exam scorer, not worth him, the dignified president, to lower his stance and beg for someone to return to the right path.
After Ma Zhenhe left,
Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin talked with Lin Zichen for over two hours.
They discussed his joining Tianren Pavilion.
Although Lin Zichen was very clear that it was just a trial for half a year, the couple still worried, fearing he could be misled and not turn back.
However, after a long conversation, the couple still chose to trust their son.
After finishing the conversation with his parents,
Lin Zichen saw it was about the right time, so he grabbed his daily necessities and headed to Shen Qinghan’s place to sleep.
Sleep was just incidental, the main purpose was to study Shen Qinghan’s water-based superpowers.
He went to Shen Qinghan’s room.
After chatting with Shen Qinghan for a while and feeling that the atmosphere was right, Xiao Chen started kissing her, delving deep into the study of her mysterious water-based superpowers.
It was just less than an hour’s time.
Shen Qinghan had changed her diaper four times, feeling like she was about to be dehydrated.
Xiao Chen poured her a glass of water, letting her replenish her fluids.
Then, while she was drinking the water, he suggested, “How about we don’t wear the diaper? It’s really quite troublesome to change, and it wastes too much.”
“But I don’t want to pee on you…”
Shen Qinghan’s face showed difficulty, but her heart was clearly wavering, no longer as adamant about wearing a diaper as before.
Xiao Chen struck while the iron was hot, “It’s okay, I really don’t mind.”
Shen Qinghan hesitated for a while but eventually agreed, “All right then, let’s not wear it.”
“Let’s go, we can continue kissing in the bathroom.”
With that, Xiao Chen scooped Shen Qinghan up and left the room, heading into the bathroom across the way.
Although it wasn’t possible to lie down and kiss in the bathroom, it had the advantage of making clean-up more convenient should she pee.
Shen Qinghan was a bit reserved when she first began to pee, but as time went on, she slowly adapted and became completely immersed in the kissing.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking.
Xiao Chen woke up in bed and glanced at Shen Qinghan still sleeping soundly beside him.
Sure enough, there was drool at the corner of her mouth.
He took a tissue and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth clean.
Afterward, seeing that it was still early, Xiao Chen didn’t rush to get up and chose to lie in bed and read the news on his phone.
Just as he opened the news app, a top trending news story caught his eye.
“Outrage! Tianren Pavilion dupes and brainwashes Nanjiang Province’s second-highest scorer into giving up the Genetic Fusion Path for the Pureblood Human Path, causing a genius to become indistinguishable from the masses!”
Seeing this headline, Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment.
What’s going on?
Has the gossip come knocking on my own door?
Xiao Chen frowned and hurriedly clicked on the news to check the content.
The content of the news was very simple, just three short paragraphs.
The first paragraph stated that Nanjiang Province’s second-highest scorer, Lin Zichen, joined the Tianren Pavilion and took the Pureblood Human Path.
The second paragraph lamented the wasted potential of the second-highest scorer.
The third paragraph mentioned the second-highest scorer from Capital City ten years ago, saying that this female genius also became nothing more than ordinary after joining the Tianren Pavilion.
After reading the content of the news, Xiao Chen immediately went to the comment section.
As expected, the netizens were up in arms.
They were denouncing Tianren Pavilion, accusing it of misleading the youth and corrupting geniuses.
There were also many comments calling Lin Zichen stupid.
After reading through the comments, he found that many of the netizens seemed like paid trolls, deliberately guiding public opinion to attack Tianren Pavilion and the Pureblood Human Path.
This was an overtly targeted attack.
Xiao Chen’s brows were deeply furrowed.
He didn’t care about whether Tianren Pavilion was being targeted.
What he cared about was that his personal information had been leaked.
Now, the whole country knew that Nanjiang Province’s second-highest scorer was Lin Zichen and that this top scorer had joined Tianren Pavilion.
And this could very likely trigger an online storm.
An online storm denouncing Tianren Pavilion for misleading the youth.
An online storm attacking the Nanjiang Province’s second-highest scorer Lin Zichen for being foolish.
