Chapter 371 How to Solve

This courtyard house looks completely antique from the outside, but the decoration inside is Chinese style with a lot of modern elements.

"I'll arrange for someone to bring your luggage to you," Lin Nuo said. "This place is not far from the Academy of Sciences, so it will be very convenient for you to commute to get off work."

Feng Ting realized belatedly that Lin Nuo wanted them to move in and live permanently!

"You're probably mistaken. We only came here temporarily because the hotel was on fire. We don't plan to stay here for a long time."

"The hotel is not safe." Lin Nuo had a good reason.

"Then your broken courtyard is safe?"

"We have the world's most advanced security system installed here. It will be safer than staying in any hotel, or any other house you temporarily buy or rent."

The seemingly quaint courtyard house actually hides secrets. It is not only equipped with various electronic alarm systems, but all door locks are unlocked by fingerprints and irises.

Feng Ting frowned, wanting to refuse emotionally, but rationally knew that for the safety of himself and his sister, choosing to temporarily live in Lin Nuo's house would be the most convenient and worry-free option.

"Okay." Feng Ting said, "I agree. My sister and I will live with you temporarily. You can decide how to calculate the rent and then we can sign a lease agreement."

Feng Ting intends to draw a clear line between himself and Lin Nuo.

Although this guy just risked his life to save my sister, but one thing is for sure, my sister is only 18 years old and doesn't want to be in a relationship! This man wants to be his brother-in-law? No way!

"Let's settle down first. Your sister is very busy." Lin Nuo changed the subject. "Regarding the Huo family, it's actually not that complicated. If I don't come back, the position of successor to the Huo family may fall to my cousins. They don't want me to show up."

"Then what does this have to do with my sister?" Feng Ting's face was grim.

Lin Nuo glanced at Chu Ci and did not give a direct answer: "This is the old man's way of threatening me. Sorry, I will take full responsibility for this matter."

Feng Ting rushed forward and grabbed Lin Nuo's clothes on his chest, his eyes fierce: "They want to burn my sister and me to death! Is this just a way for your grandfather to force you? Your Huo family is really worthy of being a top wealthy family with great power!"

Lin Nuo did not dodge and allowed Feng Ting to vent his dissatisfaction on behalf of Chu Ci.

Chu Ci grabbed Feng Ting's clothes and said, "It's none of Lin Nuo's business."

"Sister! It's because of him that we..."

"Have you forgotten what our parents taught us?" Chu Ci said.

Chu Ci's eyes were firm. Feng Ting looked at her for a long time, and finally let go of her hand.

"For my sister's sake, I won't argue with you for now. How do you plan to deal with this matter now?"

"If I become the successor, they won't target your sister anymore." Lin Nuo replied.

"That's about right." Feng Ting was quite satisfied with the answer.

Chu Ci looked at Lin Nuo and objected: "This is not a solution to the problem. It just shifts the target from me to you."

"Sister, this is originally his business, and you were dragged into this innocently."

The implication is that it is right for Lin Nuola to take away the hatred, and there is no need to feel sorry for him.

Feng Ting is selfish. His priority is his sister's safety. He doesn't care about other people.

After his parents passed away, his sister became his only relative, and he absolutely could not let anything happen to her.
