The butler's expression remained unchanged, as if he had long been accustomed to it.
The woman's face darkened, and she coldly rebuked, "Lin Zhang, don't forget who we are. It's best not to say such things in private."
"If you don't want me to talk about it, then don't do it. Look at yourself, you've actually brought a man home. Aren't you giving others leverage against you?"
Lin Zhang was also furious.
He had recently observed what was happening on Lin Feng's side and had a vague feeling that something was amiss.
Now that the Lin family has fallen overnight, he immediately came to discuss things with this woman, but he never expected her to be so absurd.
Back then, if she hadn't lied to him that he was Lin Yuan's illegitimate son, he wouldn't have followed her around swindling people.
Now that I'm in a bind, no matter how much I try to explain, probably no one will listen.
So if he's having a hard time, this woman shouldn't expect to have one either.
"What's wrong with you? You're not like usual at all."
The woman, Lin Siyuan, frowned as she looked at him. She walked downstairs, sat down gracefully, and enjoyed the butler's massage, but was still very puzzled by her son's bad temper.
This kid has been raised by her since he was a child, and she has successfully brainwashed him as he grew up. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be acting so recklessly.
Could something have happened?
Thinking of this, she turned her head and glanced at the butler behind her, her questioning intent quite obvious.
The butler then explained naturally, "Young Master saw what happened to Lin Feng. The Lin family collapsed overnight, and Young Master is worried that it will implicate us."
"The Lin family? How could this be?"
The woman was also somewhat surprised to hear this.
She initially thought it might be a small matter, but she never expected it to be such a big deal.
"This happened very suddenly. First, scandals about Lin Yuan and Jiang Rushi appeared online, but a second later, they all turned into scandals about Lin Feng, the head of the Lin family. What followed was as if it had been rehearsed in advance. Various scandals about the Lin family were exposed one after another, followed by high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen who were involved with the Lin family."
"The situation spiraled out of control, and the resulting public opinion was too severe, so the authorities had no choice but to intervene."
The butler sighed and said, "So they arrested a group of people, which led to the Lin family's sudden downfall."
Yes, that's the only way to prevent the Lin family from reacting in time.
However, things happened too fast and too suddenly, and even if the Lin family wanted to react, it would be impossible.
Lin Siyuan didn't believe that no one was manipulating things behind the scenes.
No wonder even the usually composed Lin Zhang was in such a hurry to come find him.
She coughed lightly, a little awkwardly, and was about to speak when she heard another noise from upstairs.
A strong, burly young man stood on top and blew her a kiss. "Darling, last night was wonderful. Shall we continue tonight?"
"roll!"
Lin Zhang was already in a bad mood when he saw this thing with his own eyes, which made him even angrier.
Upon hearing this, Lin Siyuan's expression froze, and he waved to the butler.
The housekeeper quickly went upstairs, pushed the man into the room, and led him out through the back door after he was dressed.
The man was still somewhat reluctant; he didn't want to leave.
Who is Lin Siyuan?
That's the woman of Lin Yuan, the savior of humanity.
The man never dreamed he could win the heart of such a beauty.
Moreover, the woman promised him many benefits.
He wants money, power, and status.
Of course, beautiful women want that too.
After all, it tastes really good.
Even if a woman is frighteningly old, if she maintains a good appearance and figure, no one will care about her age.
"What do you mean by this? Yuan Yuan hasn't said anything yet, why are you kicking me out?"
The man angrily pushed away the butler's hand and tried to turn back.
Unexpectedly, the unassuming butler stopped him, calmly advising, "Sir, if you want to live, you'd better leave now."
"Oh, are you trying to threaten me?"
He didn't respect the housekeeper; he was only thinking about finding a woman to complain to.
He's just a butler, what right does he have to be so insolent in front of him!
"This is your last warning. If you want to live, get out of here now!"
The calm voice sounded particularly unpleasant to the ear, but the man simply ignored it.
He was dreaming that once he got back, he would take good care of the woman and surely change her mind.
Unexpectedly, a chill suddenly ran through my chest, and I froze.
"I have warned twice already. The master has ordered that anyone who ignores the warnings will be killed without mercy!"
A bloodthirsty red glint flashed in the butler's cold eyes, and a long sword appeared in his hand, now piercing the man's body.
Seeing the man's terrified yet resentful expression, the butler sheathed his sword and looked at him with disdain, saying, "Another ungrateful wretch."
Over the years, he has dealt with countless people like this.
Lin Siyuan is a heartless person.
When she was poor, she saved the butler's life and forced him to sign a master-servant contract.
From that time on, the steward became her servant, and would obey her commands for all eternity.
Then a little boy appeared beside the two of them.
The woman claimed the child was her biological son, but the housekeeper knew otherwise.
Because the woman was a child picked up from outside.
Later, for some reason, the woman suddenly started spreading rumors.
Lin Siyuan is Lin Yuan's woman, and Lin Zhang is Lin Yuan's biological son.
Such a lie is easily exposed.
But she did it as if it were going very smoothly.
Before long, their good days began.
People started coming to her to exchange information.
