Half an hour later.

The car drove into a villa located at the foot of the mountain.

This villa is located outside the city center, where there is little foot traffic and it is relatively quiet.

This is the location of the Lin family in the Tianjing Safety Zone.

After the car was parked in the parking lot.

Atai got out of the driver's seat first, walked around to Xu Jin's side, and opened the car door next to Xu Jin.

"Mr. Xu, we've arrived. Please get out of the car!"

Atai's voice was slightly respectful, after all, bringing Xu Jin back was his mission.

As for Zhang Di over there...

Artest simply didn't care.

Xu Jin got out of the car from the side where Atai had opened the door.

Zhang Di opened the door and got out of the car himself.

"Come with me."

Atai led Xu Jin and Zhang Di toward the villa.

We walked all the way to the gate.

Atai stopped in his tracks.

"Mr. Xu."

"This is the Lin family's villa in Tianjing."

"You can knock on the door and go in yourself."

"My mission is complete."

After finishing his sentence, Atai turned around and left, leaving Xu Jin and Zhang Di outside the door.

"you……"

Seeing this, Zhang Di finally couldn't hold back anymore.

What's this?

They don't even have the most basic hospitality!

Is this the Lin family?

Zhang Di was internally ranting and raving, but he forced himself not to say it aloud.

If it were him...

They were treated this way.

He just turned around and left.

She will never stay in the Lin family again.

but……

He is not Xu Jin, nor can he control Xu Jin. If Xu Jin doesn't say anything, he has no right to say anything either.

He could only keep these words to himself.

"fine."

Xu Jin uttered two words calmly. This scene was unexpected, yet also reasonable.

after all.

Apart from Lin Yaodong, the Lin family...

No one knows his identity.

Xu Jin personally asked Lin Yaodong to keep it a secret, so it's normal that he didn't tell.

but……

On the other hand...

Xu Jin is attending the Gong family gathering in place of Lin Yaodong.

Even if such an identity is never explicitly stated.

It's unreasonable for the person in charge to be so perfunctory.

Xu Jin had a vague feeling.

There's still something wrong here.

He just doesn't know it yet.

Xu Jin walked to the door of the Lin family villa and pressed the doorbell.

Ding dong~

The doorbell rang.

Xu Jin and Zhang Di could hear it from outside.

Then.

There was no sound.

"Um?"

Xu Jin was stunned.

This is a bit strange.

He raised his hand again and pressed the doorbell.

Ding dong~

The doorbell rang again.

Then.

Still no one responded.

"Why is no one here?" Zhang Di frowned, unable to hold back any longer, and said, "The bodyguard brought us here, surely it's not an empty villa?"

"I'll press it a few more times."

Xu Jin raised his hand and pressed the doorbell several times.

Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~

The doorbell rang repeatedly.

Not long after.

The villa's front door moved slightly, as if the lock had been opened from the inside.

Then the door opened.

Standing inside was a middle-aged woman in her forties.

The woman's face was extremely unpleasant, and her eyes were filled with obvious bitterness and sarcasm.

What are you doing?

The woman spoke in a questioning tone, glaring sharply at Xu Jin and Zhang Di as she spoke.

"Keep pressing, pressing, pressing!"

"Don't you even know what time it is!"

It's not even 3 a.m. yet!

"It's all dark!"

"Something's wrong with you!"

The middle-aged woman vented her anger directly on Xu Jin and Zhang Di. She was a maid at the villa and was sleeping when she was woken up, which made her very unhappy.

"I am Xu Jin from the Lin family in the Jianghai Safety Zone. I came to the Lin family in Tianjing at the request of Lin Yaodong," Xu Jin said in a deep voice. Even if he didn't care about these people, he was still a little annoyed.

"Why are you here so early!" The middle-aged woman was still very dissatisfied.

"You mean..." Xu Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze gradually sharpening, and said, "You want me to wait at the door until dawn?"

“I didn’t say that.”

The middle-aged woman turned her face away, then took a step back and said, "Come in!"

Xu Jin didn't argue with the middle-aged woman and went straight inside.

Zhang Di followed behind Xu Jin.

If Xu Jin hadn't been there, he would have been furious long ago, and the anger he had been suppressing was about to burst forth.

"Please rest in the living room for a while. Mr. Lin is resting and will come to find you when he wakes up."

The middle-aged woman pointed to some of the living rooms inside the villa's hall.

That's just a basic living room.

There were only two sofas in the living room.

There wasn't even a coffee table.

It doesn't even look as luxurious as the lobby of the Jianghai Fuhua Hotel.

"Old Lin said he's arranged a bedroom for me," Xu Jin said casually.

"Let's talk about this after Mr. Lin wakes up!"

The middle-aged woman didn't want to waste any more words with Xu Jin. She shook her hand vigorously and walked away impatiently, intending to go back to sleep.

Instantly.

Only Xu Jin and Zhang Di remained in the living room.

"Mr. Xu, isn't the Lin family going a bit too far?" Zhang Di tried his best to suppress his anger. Since becoming a martial artist, he had never suffered such humiliation.
