"Oh, you actually know me?"
When Lin Yaodong saw the three beautiful women in front of him, he raised his eyebrows slightly, but his face still maintained that calm and elegant demeanor of an elderly gentleman.
However, without waiting for the three women's response, he gently patted his broad forehead and said as if suddenly realizing something, "Oh, I see! I remember now! This beautiful lady, if I remember correctly, you must be the outstanding young lady of the Chu family; and this elegant young lady must be the apple of the eye of the Shen family; as for the last one, this fresh and refined beauty... well, she must be Mu Liuyun's younger sister, Mu Xiaoxi."
Hearing Lin Yaodong call out their identities so accurately, Chu Yaqin couldn't help but clap her hands and slowly stand up from her chair, but she did not rashly take a step closer to Lin Yaodong.
"As expected of the famous 'Uncle Dong,' he has investigated the backgrounds of people like us so thoroughly."
At this moment, Lin Yaodong's gaze swept over the three beauties in front of him, and a slight smile appeared on his lips, revealing a hint of teasing.
His tone was relaxed and humorous, with a hint of joking as he continued, "That's strange, isn't it? I just watched the video of Er Ya's shop very carefully, and none of you beautiful ladies appeared in it. Could it be that you, like the village chief, have booked your appearance in a couple of days?"
After saying that, he gazed at the three women with great interest in his deep eyes, his eyes full of smiles, as if he didn't care about them at all.
Faced with Lin Yaodong's seemingly nonchalant attitude, Chu Yaqin couldn't help but praise him again: "As expected of Uncle Dong, he can still chat and laugh so easily even when he's here all by himself!"
Chu Yaqin's lips curled up slightly, and she let out a clear and melodious laugh.
Her bright, star-like eyes looked at Lin Yaodong with a half-smile, as if she could see through everything.
Clearly, from Lin Yaodong's words and actions, she could easily tell that he didn't take the three of them seriously at all.
However... just thinking about what would happen next made Chu Yaqin want to burst out laughing.
"What is this? I have seen many more brutal battlefields than this! It just happened to fall into the hands of you people."
Lin Yaodong said it casually, his tone revealing a hint of indifference.
Then, Lin Yaodong changed the subject and asked with interest, "Hey, since you've all been patiently waiting for me here, you must know that there's a man named Lao Mo with me, right? But why are you all waiting here at this moment? What's going on with Lao Mo?"
"Oh? You mean that middle-aged man standing by the river? We don't know the specifics, but Zhang Rui has already gone to look for him."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Yaqin calmly took out her phone, swiped her finger lightly, and a live monitoring screen instantly appeared on the screen.
With a smile, she handed the phone to Lin Yaodong so he could clearly see the scene on the screen. Old Mo stood alone by the river, his expression filled with anxiety.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yaodong's expression changed slightly, and a hint of surprise and vigilance flashed in his eyes.
He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "So, you all knew I was back all along?"
Faced with Lin Yaodong's questioning, Chu Yaqin simply smiled and casually replied, "Haha, Zhang Rui didn't become Lin Hongmei's housekeeper by doing nothing."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaodong fell silent. Time ticked by, a full half minute passed, and all around was quiet except for the rustling of leaves in the breeze.
Finally, as if suddenly coming to his senses, Lin Yaodong slowly raised his head.
"It seems you already know Mu Liuyun's true identity."
Chu Yaqin nodded. Hearing Lin Yaodong's words, she was certain of her previous guess.
Mu Liuyun is indeed the young master of the Lin family; no wonder he looks so much like the six Lin sisters.
Lin Yaodong didn't react to Chu Yaqin's answer, but Shen Lanxin, who was standing to the side, gave her a couple of unfriendly glances.
That wretched woman, she's hiding something again!
Mu Xiaoxi, on the other hand, looked dazed.
Judging from what Lin Yaodong and Chu Yaqin said, her brother has already found his family.
She felt both happy and somewhat disappointed about this.
Is she no longer Mu Liuyun's only one?
"Fine, so be it."
Lin Yaodong sighed and lowered his head, then raised it again, his eyes filled with madness and gloom.
"But you must remember, as long as Uncle Dong is alive, whether it is Mu Liuyun or Lin Jianguo, they are merely candidates for the position of family head!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yaqin, who had been calm and composed, was slightly taken aback, and her delicate brows furrowed.
Let's not even talk about Mu Liuyun.
The head of the Lin family has long been Lin Jianguo, yet this Uncle Dong is spouting nonsense here, falsely claiming that Lin Jianguo is merely a candidate. It's utterly ridiculous.
Could it be that Uncle Dong is really just a fool who has a false reputation and only became famous by a bit of luck?
Thinking of this, a contemptuous sneer involuntarily crept onto Chu Yaqin's lips.
What a clown.
