The Journey to become the supreme god

07. A look full of contempt

Lu Chen was picked up by his uncle when he returned from the store. When his uncle saw Lu Chen appear, his expression was a little concerned. His uncle seemed upset because Lu Chen had not returned during the day since leaving in the morning. So his uncle was worried that something had happened to Lu Chen out there, but after seeing Lu Chen return, that worry faded a little. However, that did not mean that his anger at Lu Chen for being gone for so long had completely disappeared.

“Son, if you are going to be out until evening like this, at least let me know!”

Lu Chen sighed. He had left in the morning and only returned in the evening, but that was because he had something he had to do. Lu Chen wasn't doing nothing, but he couldn't tell his uncle that. He was afraid of being misunderstood or of someone else overhearing him, which could cause problems for Lu's family. Although Lu Chen didn't know how powerful his uncle was, he felt he had to be cautious. Even though they were family, Lu Chen really couldn't tell his uncle.

“Okay, uncle, I won't do it again. Uncle, aren't you busy? Isn't the head of the family always busy?” Lu Chen's question made his uncle fall silent. Come to think of it, the duties of the head of the family were indeed very heavy. And his uncle was always busy, except when there was a problem concerning Lu Chen, then his uncle would go crazy and forget everything about his duties as the head of the family.

Lu Chen's uncle thought that there were indeed tasks that had not been completed, and Lu Chen's uncle was forced to leave immediately. Lu Chen told him that he would not be home until night tomorrow, and his uncle only agreed while reminding Lu Chen to be careful while he was out.

“What a strange uncle, but never mind! I'm also busy tomorrow, well... I wonder if the woman the elders are talking about is really the mayor's daughter? Sometimes they really fool me!” Lu Chen said, remembering the several times the three elders from the big trading room had tricked him. Although it didn't cause Lu Chen any loss, he still felt that it made him look a little foolish.

No matter what, in Lu Chen's eyes, all information was very important, even though Lu Chen himself was not very good at healing people. But as long as he could find out information about his patients, Lu Chen would definitely do his best to treat them. Of course, this meant that they had to be honest and not hide anything from Lu Chen to facilitate treatment. Lu Chen, who entered the courtyard of the Lu family's house, attracted the attention of many family members who saw him. Some looked at Lu Chen with pity, some felt that Lu Chen was too weak and unworthy of living in the main family, and some felt that Lu Chen was just a child who wasted the family's resources.

“Their views still haven't changed? Yes, I can't change their views either. And I don't really care about their views, it's better this way than how it used to be!” Lu Chen remembered his former self. In the past, Lu Chen always enjoyed the praise of those around him, and there were always people who would hang around with him. It was like a large group, and no one dared to insult or mock him like they do now. But since becoming the family's trash, everyone no longer looked at Lu Chen the way they used to, and they even openly considered Lu Chen to be useless trash from the Lu family.

“That piece of trash, he still dares to walk casually in front of us like this. Isn't he ashamed?”

"That's right, he's so shameless! Just relying on his good looks. Does he think things are still the same as before? Ah, the Lu family has really fallen because of him!"

Lu Chen could hear several hurtful remarks, but with calm steps and confidence, he left that place full of drama and returned to the house where Lu Chen lived alone. There, Lu Chen really didn't have to care about what people said and didn't have to worry about hearing their harsh words. But when he arrived in front of the house, Lu Chen's expression turned slightly ugly because there were three troublemakers standing there, apparently waiting for Lu Chen's arrival. Seeing Lu Chen appear, the three young men immediately approached Lu Chen and scolded him for taking too long to return.

"Where did you go? Why are you just coming back now? Don't you know that I've been looking for you, trash?" In an angry tone, one of the men belittled and humiliated Lu Chen without fear. His tone was very harsh, and his loud voice showed that this man really wanted to embarrass Lu Chen.

“Go away, I don't have time to deal with you!” Lu Chen said coldly, staring at the three people who were blocking his way.

“Ha, look at that! This trash is showing us his arrogant nature again. Hahahaha, trash, know your place! You're just trash now, not the genius Lu Chen you used to be. You're trash, Lu Chen, hahahahaha!”

The three young men truly believed they were the best; as men, they considered Lu Chen useless. Being abandoned by his own fiancée was only natural, given how trashy Lu Chen was now. Every woman would always want a much better man; they would certainly not only look at the face but also the strength and value of the man who would be their partner, whether he was worthy or not. Lu Chen showed a little displeasure, especially seeing that many people had gathered because they heard the voices of these three troublemakers. If only they hadn't spoken so loudly, they wouldn't have attracted so many people.

"Is that what you think? So, why are you stopping me? Do you want to show that you are better than me? It seems that you are not that good either, since you are still only at the third level of body refinement. No improvement for years, is that considered better?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, the three men fell silent, then their expressions immediately turned very ugly towards Lu Chen. Lu Chen's words really offended them, but they never thought that their words had also offended Lu Chen.
