In the end, he finally understood why Lin Yuelan had given him repeated warnings.
...
Lin Mingqing turned to Lin Yuelan and said, "Lan 'Er, Uncle Mingqing only wants to protect the Lin family Village and everyone close to me."
This meant that he wasn't interested in her secret at all. He just wanted to be able to protect the Lin family Village and his family.
If he really broke his oath, then the Lin family Village and his family would be massacred, and he would have no complaints.
Lin Yuelan's sharp eyes stared at Lin Mingqing for a while. She didn't see him avoiding her gaze, only a certain determination, and calmness.
However, Lin Yuelan's sharp and majestic aura was like a mountain pressing down on his back. It made it difficult for him to breathe. Just as he felt that he was about to suffocate to death, he suddenly could breathe again.
