After Xu Wen finished the call with Li Lin, the tense mood she had been in for the past few days finally relaxed completely.

She lay on her back on the bed and posed like a big letter... took two deep breaths and then exhaled...

In her excitement just now, she actually revealed to Li Lin on the phone that she had asked her father Xu Yongchang and brother Xu Yilong for help...

But fortunately, he just mentioned it in one sentence and didn't reveal too much information about his father. Fortunately, Li Lin didn't ask any further questions.

What if he suddenly asks, "What do your father and brother do for a living?"

It was really difficult for her to answer... because she was the kind of person who would never lie, and once she told a lie, it would be full of loopholes, and it would be easy for Li Lin to find the flaw.

Suddenly, she turned over from the bed, took out her cell phone and called her father Xu Yongchang again. Before Xu Yongchang could speak, Xu Wen said anxiously, "Dad, Li Lin is fine. Did you use some connections to rescue him? You must ask the other party to keep it a secret... I don't want Li Lin to know my family background..."

Xu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Silly girl, how could I call someone for help in this matter? I just asked a friend in Hanjiang to inquire for you... I just found out yesterday that your boyfriend was taken away by the Pingyang Discipline Inspection Commission for investigation... But I learned from the side that he didn't do much wrong, it was just bad luck. I thought that if he did something that violated discipline and law, I would not only not help him, but also advocate severe punishment for him!... He is so young and doesn't learn well... How can such a person be worthy of dating my daughter..."

"Dad, what are you talking about? Li Lin is not the kind of person who would take advantage of others... I don't allow you to say that about him. He is worthy of dating me. I will not marry anyone else in this life!" Xu Wen pouted and said in a delicate voice.

"Tsk tsk tsk... You've become someone else's before you even get married... Dad, I'm so heartbroken. I've raised you for more than 20 years in vain... Wasn't I just making an analogy?... I didn't say I wouldn't help him. I had already used my connections to help him. How come you said that he has come out? Oh... Maybe it was my friend from Han Jiang who did something... It's good that he's come out..." Xu Yongchang said with a chuckle.

Was it really dad’s friend who helped Li Lin?

Xu Wen was not too sure either, because from Xu Yongchang's tone, it seemed that he had not yet started to exert his strength.

"Alright, alright, tell your friend to keep his mouth shut and not reveal your identity..."

"I know. I would have told you even if you didn't tell me. Otherwise, if people ask me who I am, I really don't know how to answer. I'm your son-in-law, but you two aren't married yet... It's not right for you to help him... If you really want me to help him in the future, you two should hurry up..." Xu Yongchang's words were full of meaning, and he was urging her to get married. He had never seen his daughter like someone so much, so he also had an idea and planned to go to Hanjiang to check on Xu Wen in person, and then quickly promote their marriage.

Girls can't stay at home when they grow up...

Xu Yongchang sighed secretly.

After the father and daughter hung up the phone, Xu Wen called her brother Xu Yillong long distance. She didn't even bother to say hello and directly told Xu Yillong that Li Lin was fine and asked him to work with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yilong's words surprised her.

Xu Yilong sighed and said, "Little sister, if you had told me one day earlier, I wouldn't have come back..."

"What? You're back from abroad?" Xu Wen was surprised. She felt a little guilty because she was too anxious because she couldn't contact Li Lin. She was desperate and tried all kinds of methods, so she urged Xu Yilong to come back quickly to find someone...

Xu Yilong smiled and said, "Yes, I booked a flight ticket the same day I received your call for help, and arrived in Yanjing yesterday... I didn't contact you in time because I still had to find those buddies in Beijing, and wanted them to help find your sweetheart! I just got the exact news that Li Lin was taken away by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection... Now that he is out, it is probably not a big deal... Little sister, just persuade your boyfriend to stop mixing in the officialdom and do business with me... Your brother is now a top figure on the rich list, and he can easily earn more money than he can earn in his entire life by following me..."

"Alright, alright, stop nagging. Now that you're back, spend some time with your sister-in-law instead of hanging out with your bunch of bad friends all day... I'm hanging up!"

Only after making these two calls did Xu Wen feel relieved.

He knew that rumors spread quickly in official circles. If his father and brother asked someone to inquire about Li Lin, given their identities, it would soon cause discussion in Hanjiang's political circles... If things go wrong, her identity would be exposed to the public.

She enjoys her current life and doesn't want to be overwhelmed by the title of second-generation official... She also doesn't want to alienate her relationship with Li Lin...

Feeling relieved, she put on her shoes and prepared to go to the school gate to pick up the package...

The arrival of this express delivery was a bit strange. No one delivered it to the campus, but she was asked to pick it up at the door... Also, she didn't seem to have bought anything online recently, so why did the courier call and say that there was a shipment to be paid on delivery?

Could it be a surprise from Li Lin?

Thinking of this, Xu Wen's eyes sparkled and she unconsciously quickened her pace to pick up the express delivery.

To the west of the school gate, under two huge maple trees, a van was parked on the roadside. A man wearing a peaked cap and a courier company uniform was standing by the van holding a square courier box, waiting for Xu Wen to pick up the package. In the van, besides the driver, there was also a muscular man sitting in the back seat.

The car door was open, as if waiting for someone to get on board...
