Chapter 622: Apology and Disagreement
That night, Jiang Fuyue asked Niu Rui to narrow the surveillance range from the entire South Vietnam to Shapu.
Niu Rui: "You figured it out so quickly?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Yes. Keep a close eye on the dense forest breeding areas, especially those with iron product manufacturing plants nearby."
"clear."
After hanging up, Jiang Fuyue dialed another number -
"Uncle Liu, how are the preparations going in South Vietnam?"
"The group's personnel in South Vietnam are ready and on standby."
"Very good. Send someone to Shapu to explore the route first. Once Niu Rui has the latest news, I will inform you immediately."
Liu Jinzhong: "Has the trader been chosen?"
“The other party requested a cross-border transfer.”
"In this case, be careful about using space accounts to collect money and kill people."
This is also what Jiang Fuyue is worried about.
"I'm planning to send Yan Zhixing over there to handle the situation. Uncle Liu, go ask him what he thinks. Don't force it. Give me an answer tomorrow."
"good."
The next day, I didn't receive a reply from Liu Jinzhong, but I did receive a reply from Guan Yiling.
"Sister Han, I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning," the woman said, wearing a rose-red coat, delicate makeup, and a bright smile.
Although yesterday's incident was not pleasant, one should not hit a smiling person. Since others came to her on their own initiative, Han Yunru naturally would not hold a grudge.
"It's okay, we're all awake, so we won't disturb you. Come in--"
Guan Yiling changed into slippers and walked to the living room. She bumped into Qin Lin, who was calling Han Yunru for breakfast. "Xiaoru, everything is ready. You..."
Suddenly, the voice paused.
The man's brows tightened slightly: "Why are you here?"
Guan Yiling smiled: "Ah Lin..."
Seeing this, Han Yunru tactfully went into the dining room, leaving the space for the two of them.
"I'm sorry, I was so ignorant yesterday. After you came out, I stayed in the hotel alone and didn't sleep the whole night."
Qin Lin didn't respond and put his hands in his pockets.
Guan Yiling walked over to him and spoke softly, "I've reflected on this seriously. As an elder, I shouldn't have argued with a younger person about Dad, leading to some inappropriate angry remarks. But, A-Lin, have you ever considered that my reaction was because I was worried about Dad, afraid that something might happen to him..."
I have to say that women are very smart. They first humble themselves and admit their mistakes, then appeal to the man's emotions and soften his heart little by little.
Sure enough, after Qin Lin heard this, his expression eased a little, but he still did not respond.
Guan Yiling was not discouraged. Her soft voice was a hundred times gentler than the spring breeze in March: "Also, regarding the matter between you and Sister Han..."
The man's eyes suddenly became sharp.
She acted as if she didn't notice, and kept saying to herself: "I know, I'm too sensitive, but I can't help it..."
The woman's voice was tinged with tears, but she stubbornly suppressed her feelings, refusing to reveal them. "If it weren't for the coincidence back then, the person standing with you now would be her, not me. Do you know how this feels? It's like..."
She paused for a moment. "Just like I stole someone else's happiness, God will eventually punish me and leave me with nothing. I'm anxious, afraid, and terrified, so I'm having wild thoughts and speaking without thinking. I know that doing so will only push you further away and make myself look disgusting, but I just can't control myself... I really can't control myself..."
A hint of emotion flashed in Qin Lin's eyes.
"Sometimes I can't help but think that it would be better if I didn't love you so much. The Buddhist scriptures say that love breeds worry and fear. Because we care too much, we are afraid of losing..."
"Yiling..." The man finally spoke. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and sighed softly, "Xiaoru and I are already in the past. Now we each have our own families and live in harmony and happiness. You don't have to worry about it."
"I'm sorry, I should have believed you."
"Okay, now that the misunderstanding has been explained, don't take it to heart. Go apologize to Xiaoru and Yueyue later. This matter will be over. We are still a family."
Guan Yiling's smile froze for a moment, but it disappeared completely in just a fraction of a second. She leaned against Qin Lin's chest and nodded gently, "It's my duty. I came here to apologize to them in person."
"Well, you always know the big picture and when to advance and retreat."
Qin Lin brought the people to the dining room, and Guan Yiling apologized to Han Yunru and Jiang Fuyue on the spot.
"Sister Han, I was ignorant yesterday. Please forgive me for making fun of you."
Han Yunru smiled softly, "We're all family, let's not talk about this. I was a little impulsive yesterday, so don't take it to heart."
Next, it was Jiang Fuyue's turn.
"Auntie was impulsive yesterday and shouldn't have questioned you. This matter was originally our responsibility. You offered to help, but I... was ungrateful. It's really..."
This statement is indeed full of apology, but why does it feel so wrong when it comes to the rest of the sentence?
When an elder says in front of a younger person that he is "ungrateful", it sounds like he is putting Jiang Fuyue on the fire.
Those who don't know her would think she is arrogant and conceited.
Qin Lin was about to speak when Jiang Fuyue spoke up.
"Yesterday, we both discussed the matter at hand. You have your stance, I have mine. There is no right or wrong. Apologies are unnecessary."
"But..." Guan Yiling wanted to say something.
Jiang Fuyue: "I received news ten minutes ago that the South Vietnamese have already figured out the kidnappers' exact location. To avoid alerting the enemy, my men are only monitoring from the periphery and haven't approached."
"What?! Found it?!" Guan Yiling exclaimed with an expression of disbelief.
How could it be that in just one night...
Qin Lin also found it incredible: "Really? How is Dad now?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Grandpa Qin is safe for now. The kidnappers didn't do anything to him."
Shi Qingzhi's eyes lit up with joy, and heaved a sigh of relief: "That's great... That's great..."
Jiang Da and Han Yunru looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
"So what should we do next? Should we call the police and have China contact the South Vietnamese police to launch an arrest operation?"
Before Jiang Fuyue could speak, Guan Yiling said anxiously, "No—"
Everyone looked at her with strange eyes.
"I, what I mean is, just like Yueyue said yesterday, if the police are dispatched and the kidnappers don't find out, it's fine. But if they do, the consequences will be unpredictable. We can't risk Dad's life!"
The old lady nodded.
She didn't care about the money, she was just afraid that Lao Qin would not come back.
If something really happened to Qin Yuanchen, no matter how much money she had, it would be meaningless.
Qin Lin also agreed.
Jiang Fuyue raised her eyelids and looked at Guan Yiling. The latter did not dodge, but her eyes were full of anxiety.
Quite genuinely emotional.
"That's right," she curled her lips, "I thought so too."
Guan Yiling pursed her lips towards her and smiled slightly.
Jiang Fuyue looked away and continued, "A joint operation between the two countries' police forces requires a series of approval processes. There are still many inflexible aspects in the specific operation, such as language barriers, which are difficult to overcome in a short period of time."
Shi Qingzhi: "Then what should we do? Should we carry out the rescue ourselves?"
Qin Lin shook his head. "It's unrealistic. First, we don't have the relevant connections. Second, even if we spend money to organize mercenaries, we don't have enough time."
"Yueyue?" The old lady seemed to be placing all her hopes on Jiang Fuyue.
Qin Lin still didn't quite believe that Jiang Fuyue had this ability. Even though she knew Professor Lake, that didn't prove that she could fight against a group of vicious kidnappers.
"I thought about it and felt that it was necessary for me to go to South Vietnam in person!"
"And then?" Jiang Fuyue asked him, "What are you going to do after this?"
Qin Lin was stunned.
After a while, "...I'm going to make a deal with those kidnappers!"
"How do you trade? Money in exchange for people?"
That’s what Qin Lin thought.
As long as he is there and the kidnappers have received the money, they will naturally release Qin Yuanchen.
Jiang Fuyue chuckled and shook her head, but her tone was cold and heavy: "Naive!"
Qin Lin frowned fiercely.
Han Yunru called out, "Yueyue, explain it to your Uncle Qin."
"Let's put it this way, the kidnappers will never give you a chance to deal face to face."
Qin Lin: "In that recording, the kidnappers didn't mention the specific transaction method. The so-called receiving money through a space account is just speculation. Even if it is true, we can still negotiate for it."
Jiang Fuyue wanted to call him "naive" again, but for the sake of the old lady and Han Yunru, she held back.
He chuckled, "You can try."
Qin Lin: "Just try it!"
Jiang Fuyue sneered.
Just then, the old lady's cell phone rang, and the caller ID showed an overseas number.
Jiang Fuyue raised her chin slightly: "Don't you want to try? Then try it."
Qin Lin gritted his teeth.
He still couldn't believe that after living for most of his life, he couldn't see or think as clearly as an eighteen-year-old girl!
Two or three updates, three thousand words.
Qin Lin was about to be slapped in the face.
There will be another update at 12:40, so come and refresh it then~ Don't update it in advance~
Also, Happy Valentine's Day! You are all my little lovers, 520, love you~
