Chapter 234 Lin Family’s Response
The eldest prince had said so much, Chu Ci pursed his lips and said slowly: "Your Highness, please calm down. It was Chu Ci who was rude and abrupt, and it was difficult for me to understand your intentions at the moment. I hope your Highness will forgive me."
However, the more polite and distant Chu Ci was, the more upset the eldest prince felt.
His brows were furrowed, his eyes full of annoyance. He thought to himself that he had already made his feelings clear, but Chu Ci was still cautiously keeping a distance from him, which made him angry and helpless.
In the end, all he could say was, "Then let's go!"
After saying this, the eldest prince shook his sleeves and took the lead to walk forward with big strides, his look seeming to be a bit angry.
Unfortunately, this handsome pose could not last more than three seconds.
It was because Chu Ci shouted at his back: "Wait, you are a guard, which guard walks so arrogantly and without rules?"
When the eldest prince heard this, his body suddenly froze and he almost tripped over his right foot and fell flat on his face.
Seeing this, Chu Ci laughed so hard that he fell backwards.
However, when the eldest prince heard Chu Ci's unrestrained laughter, he unconsciously revealed a bit of joy.
Fan Jingrui silently gave Chu Ci a thumbs up.
Chu Ci smiled slightly when he saw this, raised his head proudly, and said: "Although our strategies are not as good as yours, the emotional value we provide is absolutely sufficient and impeccable."
After saying that, she waved her hand and said, "Let's go——"
Fan Jingrui looked at the figure in front of him that was full of confidence and vitality, his eyes full of tenderness, the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a doting manner, revealing a warm smile.
Then he took a deep breath, as if he was also infected by the figure, and walked forward with brisk steps, each step revealing determination and calmness.
On the contrary, when Lin Zheng learned that Chu Ci and his wife were about to visit, he was extremely anxious and ran so hard that his legs were almost smoking.
He was originally full of expectations, thinking that the Chu Ci couple were looking for him, but he did not expect that the Chu Ci couple would directly use the token he gave them to find his father, Lin Wentang, the head of the Lin family.
Lin Zheng looked at the servant who came to report, his face full of disbelief, and confirmed again and again: "Are you sure that Mr. Fan is looking for my father, not me? Don't make a mistake, this matter is very serious, think about it carefully!"
The servant was frightened by Lin Zheng's aura and replied hurriedly: "Master, I dare not lie. It is absolutely true that Mr. Fan and his wife are looking for you."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng's face instantly turned gloomy, his lips pursed tightly, and his fists unconsciously clenched, his knuckles slightly white due to the force. "I want to see what this so-called Mr. Fan is looking for his father for."
"Where are they now?" Lin Zheng asked angrily with his eyes wide open.
The servant was so frightened that he trembled all over and quickly replied, "In the master's study."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng walked quickly towards Lin Wentang's study without saying a word.
In the study, Lin Wentang looked at the jade Pixiu in his hand with deep eyes and a serious expression. He said slowly to Fan Jingrui: "Mr. Fan, you came to me just to return this jade pendant, right?"
Fan Jingrui nodded, "Mr. Lin's guess is correct. I am here today to discuss a matter concerning the survival of the Lin family."
Life or death? Lin Wentang frowned, his face full of suspicion.
However, businessmen are always tactful and worldly-wise. He said slowly, "Mr. Fan, your words are too harsh! My Lin family is well-known in this city. We have always been upright and honest, and our business has been going smoothly. How could it have come to a point of life and death? Are you just talking nonsense and deliberately sensationalizing it?"
Fan Jingrui was not angry, but calm, and asked a question with deep eyes that Lin Wentang almost didn't notice. "Master Lin, do you still remember when your eldest grandson told you that this Pixiu jade pendant was lost and under what circumstances?"
Lin Wentang did not answer, but narrowed his eyes and asked back with a slightly scrutinizing look: "Master Fan seems to know the details?"
Fan Jingrui did not answer, but said calmly: "This matter is somewhat related to the second young master Lin Zheng. I believe the second young master will be here soon. If you have any questions at that time, we will answer them together for you. After all, hearing is not believing, seeing is believing."
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Lin became more confused and puzzled, and the mystery in his heart grew thicker.
But when it comes to patience, he has never lacked it.
So he nodded slightly, agreeing to Fan Jingrui's proposal.
In this way, Lin Wentang sat opposite Fan Jingrui and Chu Ci.
The room was suddenly extremely quiet, as if even the air had frozen. The atmosphere was so depressing that it made people feel a little breathless.
Fortunately, Lin Zheng was moving quite fast. A burst of hurried footsteps was heard, and as soon as he stepped into the house, he broke the quiet and depressing atmosphere.
"Father." Lin Zheng first greeted his father Lin Wentang respectfully, then turned his gaze to Fan Jingrui, with a bit of anxiety and confusion in his eyes, staring at him and said: "Mr. Fan, what is the purpose of your visit today? Can I listen?"
Fan Jingrui did not answer Lin Zheng's words.
Instead, he turned his gaze to Lin Wentang and said solemnly, "Since everyone is here, let's go somewhere now. But I want you two to promise me that no matter what you see later, you must stay calm and not panic or lose your composure."
Lin Zheng: Are you dissatisfied with yourself?
A surge of anger suddenly rose up in his heart, and the rage in his heart was burning fiercely. Lin Zheng clenched his fists, ready to teach Fan Jingrui a severe lesson to let him know that he is not someone to be trifled with.
But his father stopped him with his hand. "Zheng'er, don't be impulsive. It's okay to go and take a look."
Even though Lin Zheng was unwilling in his heart, facing his father's obstruction, he could only suppress his anger and grit his teeth to endure it. "Yes."
When Fan Jingrui saw that Lin Zheng and his son agreed, he turned around and nodded slightly to Chu Ci.
Chu Ci immediately stood up, adjusted his sleeves gracefully, and said in a clear voice: "Okay, follow me."
Lin and his son did not expect that Chu Ci, a woman, would lead the way, and their faces were full of disbelief.
He was about to ask a question, but when he met Fan Jingrui's threatening gaze, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he could only swallow back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
However, the further he walked, the more familiar Lin Zheng felt, and the more doubts he had in his heart grew. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Madam, where are you taking us, father and son?"
Chu Ci had been silent all the way, but this time he replied: "Second Master Lin, I think you should have figured it out, right? However, the actual situation may be slightly different from what you think."
This can be regarded as a precautionary measure for the father and son of the Lin family, so that they can be mentally prepared.
