Chapter 278 Only Silence



compound.

The lady's name was Wanqiu, but the autumn of 2014 had irretrievably fallen into deep winter.

Yet, the solitude of winter is actually the most bustling time of the year for the compound. As Spring Festival approaches, lights and decorations are adorned, and visitors flock in. However, as everyone with access to the compound knows, Madam's temperament favors quiet, so even when people come, they are usually as casual as water, chatting casually. Some, if they choose not to see her, simply leave their gifts and depart.

In this extraordinary moment, only this place will remain the same as usual and unaffected.

Of course, being detached from the world is just an appearance.

Secretary Yu waited outside the door with the documents in his hand. He waited for a while, and only when he heard his wife's promise from inside did he push the door open and go in, then closed the door behind him.

There was not only the lady in the room, but also a respectable older man. Secretary Yu knew him: "Madam, Mr. Qin."

The elder surnamed Qin sat there, looking at Mrs. Lin, as if he had said everything he wanted to say. He no longer looked at the messy documents on the table, but stood up and left. Before leaving, he said to Secretary Yu, "I'll wait in the car outside. Report to me if there's any new information."

Secretary Yu waited for his back to disappear, then turned back to ask his wife:

"The talks broke down?"

"Old guys are always stubborn." Madam Lin took a sip of tea and said, "He always goes with the wind. It seems that only in this way can he show that he is still young, strong, and courageous."

Secretary Yu lowered his head so that his wife wouldn't see the corners of his mouth curled up.

"But fortunately, there are still rational people in the Qin family. Qin Yehe is much smarter and more honest than this old man." Mrs. Lin said, looking at the briefcase tucked under Secretary Yu's armpit and asked, "What's that kid up to again?"

"This is a big mess. It's going to make the whole thing leak." He pulled out the document and handed it over.

Mrs. Lin glanced at the document, then put it down and asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Is it true that the Wang family's daughter is missing?"

"It's true." Secretary Yu bowed and said, "I've never seen him so flustered."

"Wang Kai?"

"......" Secretary Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "Chen Tinghan."

Madam Lin sneered, then sighed inexplicably: "My silly daughter really doesn't know how to choose an opponent."

"The eldest lady is not inferior to anyone." Secretary Yu said with a flattering smile.

"Compared to a silly girl like her, a born bad guy is more likable." Mrs. Lin did not defend her daughter at all and waved her hand.

Secretary Yu didn't dare to say anything more.

Mrs. Lin dusted off the documents and said, "What about Wang Kai? His daughter was kidnapped, and he didn't react at all?"

"No one can say whether there has been any reaction, but at least on the surface, he has been sitting very comfortably." Secretary Yu said, "The Wang family's roots are starting to rot, and he can only hold on to it without letting anyone know. This platform cannot collapse, at least not so quickly.

Many people in Wanghai want to kick someone when he's down, but if you ask me, don't chase a desperate enemy. Let those who deserve to die die, and those who deserve to leave leave. If you push too hard, it'll be like trying to draw water with a bamboo basket."

"This is a slip of the net, a slip of the net that specifically lets in big fish." Madam Lin said with a smile: "How interesting! This kid is quite ingenious, with a clear purpose, and he has some tricks up his sleeve. He is also ruthless. I underestimated him before.

I really thought he was a fool with a strong sense of morality."

"Chen Tinghan is not a pedantic person," Secretary Yu said. "He is still very capable."

Mrs. Lin said nothing. She glanced at the document again and handed it back. "Since he has already done this, why should I refuse?"

"Well, I..."

Madam Lin said calmly, "Leave it to that old man outside. He'll know what to do."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Secretary Yu bowed and took his leave.

Mrs. Lin called him back: "Wait."

Secretary Yu was used to this kind of call, so he immediately stopped and turned around to wait for instructions.

Mrs. Lin said, "Let him come to our house for dinner on New Year's Eve."

Secretary Yu was stunned for a moment, feeling a bit complicated. Perhaps he was happy for Boss Chen, so he replied, "Yes."

"There has been no man in this family for a long time."

If you look down at the earth from the sky, someone would see Secretary Yu holding the sealed document, walking out of the yard along the road, and coming to the private car.

It was like a singularity. No one knew what the people in the car saw, but everyone would find that from this moment on, a huge force in Wanghai began to spread out in a ripple shape, shaking the entire Wanghai.

......

......

Chen Tinghan couldn't figure out Mrs. Lin's thoughts, but Mrs. Lin had no reason to refuse that document.

The Madam wanted to take the top seat in Wanghai, so Wang Kai was a thorn in her side, not to mention the fact that Lin Xueyan had been threatened by him before, so Chen Tinghan made this decision.

If Chen Tinghan wants to bring down Wang Kai, the power of the Qin family and Madam Lin is indispensable. Whether the Qin family will take action depends on Madam Lin's attitude. It is impossible to let Madam directly break up with the Wang family and fight to the end.

Not to mention that Lin Xueyan didn't die in this life, even if she died, she would lie dormant and endure until the time was right before making plans.

Mrs. Lin is such a person. As the helmsman of a family, being ruthless is a must.

In this case, if I want to borrow her power, there is only one possibility.

Peaceful evolution, touching Wang Kai without touching anyone else, is impossible under normal circumstances, because in order to bring down Wang Kai, people have to believe that he has already fallen.

It's like boiling a frog in warm water. As long as those guys who are deeply bound to Wang Kai think that Wang Kai has fallen, they will scatter and find a way out for themselves.

Originally, most people were still waiting and watching, because they all knew that neither Mrs. Lin nor the Qin family could withstand the pressure of the entire Wanghai. But now it is different. More and more evidence shows that Wang Kai is in a bad situation, and Ji Yanghai's series of actions in recent days have added fuel to the fire.

The more passive the Wang family becomes, the more people will believe that the Wang family is about to collapse.

So although Chen Tinghan is nominally assisting the police in investigating the kidnapping case, in fact, the longer he delays, the greater his chances of winning.

He had actually guessed Ji Yanghai's location a long time ago.

He was silent, nothing but silence. The next time they met, everything would be settled.

"Boss Chen." Zhou Jinwei hadn't fully recovered yet, and couldn't sit still during this special period, so he was discharged early and came to Chen Tinghan's house. "How are you doing?"
