Chapter 241 The Secret of the Lin Family
Lu Huai felt Lin Zhiqing's trust in him, and a smile appeared on his face:
"Aqing, thank you."
"I should thank you more." Lin Zhiqing nodded and didn't dwell on it too much.
Lu Huai had helped her a lot today, and thanking her for no reason was a bit of a betrayal.
"Today's incident was truly an accident, and your behavior was a bit too reckless." Lu Huai's tone did not quite agree.
He was right, and Lin Zhiqing also knew that he was taking some risks today.
But the situation is serious and she can only make the most beneficial choice at the moment.
But... Lin Zhiqing couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought of the mess in Washington:
"You should have been the one who entered the warehouse before me today, but one of the doors in the warehouse was unlocked and the window was loose."
"If you want to finish it, it might be a bit troublesome."
Before Lu Huai could speak, Yun Feng beside him was a little excited: "Miss Zhiqing, you don't have to worry about this. My young master has already figured it out."
Lin Zhiqing raised an eyebrow and looked at Lu Huai: "Hmm? Is it settled?"
"Don't worry, the manager is my man, he will clean up the mess for me." Lu Huai did not hide anything from Lin Zhiqing.
Manager?
Lin Zhiqing recalled what the manager had done in his mind, and after thinking about it this way, he finally understood.
Apart from a few officials in Bianliang, the Hua family is undoubtedly the largest force.
The Hua family is a merchant family, and the manager is undoubtedly a very important position.
It is not easy for Lu Huai to place his own people in this position.
In the past, Lin Zhiqing only knew that Lu Huai was meticulous and proficient in mathematics, but he never expected that he could extend his hand to Bianliang.
Such skill is definitely not something that ordinary people can match.
"In that case, I feel relieved." Lin Zhiqing breathed a sigh of relief:
"I discussed business with the Hua family. If today's incident gets out, it won't be good."
"Are you going to move your perfume business from the capital to Bianliang?" Lu Huai put the cylinder away.
"That's right." Lin Zhiqing nodded: "The capital is no longer suitable for the Lin family."
When she said this, something in her heart moved.
How did Lu Huai know that he was in the perfume business?
As if seeing through Lin Zhiqing's doubts, Yun Feng chuckled, "Miss Zhiqing, although my young master is busy traveling outside, he's always thinking about you..."
“Ahem!”
Lu Huai coughed twice, interrupted Yun Feng's words, and cast a threatening look at him.
Yun Feng's words were on the tip of his tongue, but after receiving Lu Huai's gaze, he suddenly changed his tone:
"My young master has always been thinking about the Lin family. Yes, the Lin family!"
Lin Zhiqing curled his lips. Seeing that Lu Huai avoided his gaze, he stepped forward and opened the door.
"Yun Feng, please come with me to send Lin Jingya back to the Lin family. I have to go to the Hua Mansion later. My grandfather and cousin will be worried if I don't come back for a long time."
"No problem." Yun Feng slammed the table, stood up quickly, picked up Lin Jingya, and followed Lin Zhiqing.
Lu Huai stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll take you there."
"Is the Ministry of Revenue not busy tonight?" Lin Zhiqing smiled and said, "I can go there by myself. I've already toured Bianliang City a lot these past few days, so I should be able to find the approximate location."
"My mission is complete." Lu Huai's eyes showed a hint of smile, and he seemed to be in a good mood: "Others will take care of the rest."
After saying this, he walked out of the room without waiting for Lin Zhiqing to refuse.
When mentioning other people in the Ministry of Revenue, Lin Zhiqing inevitably thought of the court and the royal family.
She knew that what Lu Huai had done previously to help the Lin family overturn the case went against the original intention of the royal family.
He also thought of what Lu Huai had said to him before, that helping the Lin family was to make someone see things clearly.
At this point, she was actually a little curious.
So she quickly chased after him: "If you're okay, that's great. I have a question. You said you wanted some people to see things clearly."
"Yeah." Lu Huai naturally didn't forget, he responded softly.
"How is it now? Has the goal been achieved?" Lin Zhiqing continued to ask.
As time passed, the moon rose.
The moonlight softly fell on her face, giving her an extra layer of glow.
Thinking of the scene of "negotiation" with Lin Zhiqing that day, Lu Huai looked away and smiled: "Guess."
He rarely joked with Lin Zhiqing.
"I guess... it has been achieved, because before coming to Bianliang, I went to the Lu family and visited Uncle Lu." Lin Zhiqing answered readily.
Lu Huai was not surprised that Lin Zhiqing guessed his purpose.
"Yes, that's right. You have always been very smart." He did not hesitate to praise Lin Zhiqing.
Yun Feng, who was following closely behind, rolled his eyes. No, why did he feel like he was a little redundant?
Fortunately, the conversation didn't last long.
When Lin Zhiqing and his group arrived at the Lin family, Lin Qingshan had already returned home.
He was a little surprised to see Lu Huai, and even frowned slightly.
However, this action only lasted for a moment, and Lin Zhiqing pretended that he saw nothing.
After listening to her explanation of the cause of the incident, Lin Qingshan thanked Lu Huai very much.
Of course, the topic that they couldn't avoid was Lu Huai's father, Lu Zhen.
In Lin Qingshan's words, Lu Zhen is a gentleman, and even Lu Huai has only 70% of Lu Zhen's character.
Hmm... Lin Zhiqing thought about how Lu Zhen ate barbecue a few days ago and felt that this statement was doubtful.
Lu Huai handled the situation well. He didn't undermine his father, but he also didn't brag too much. He also showed a lot of concern for Lin Qingshan.
Lin Qingshan seemed to like Lu Huai very much.
The two chatted for a long time. It was getting late, and Lu Huai was a polite man, so he quickly said goodbye.
Seeing Lu Huai leave, Lin Qingshan's expression suddenly became serious.
Lin Zhiqing seemed to have sensed something. She felt that her grandfather's reaction was wrong just now, and now Lin Qingshan's behavior verified her thoughts.
Sensing something was wrong, she spoke directly: "Grandfather, why do you look like that? Did something happen to my cousin?"
Seeing that Lin Yangyang was not there, her guess inevitably extended along this line, and she felt a little worried.
After seeing her grandfather shook his head and said that he had sent someone to notify Lin Yangyang to return from the Hua Mansion, her worries gradually subsided and she breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second, Lin Qingshan spoke again, his voice steady and controlled: "Qing girl, how much do you know about the Lin family's affairs?"
"How many minutes?" Lin Zhiqing didn't react at first. What did this mean?
Lin Qingshan had a complicated expression, as if he didn't know how to talk to Lin Zhiqing, and was silent for a moment.
Seeing his reaction, Lin Zhiqing's heart sank.
No way, is there something else going on with the Lin family?
Under her puzzled gaze, Lin Qingshan's chest rose and fell slightly, and he subconsciously held onto the table, as if the words he was about to say weighed a thousand pounds.
In fact, just as Lin Zhiqing thought, Lin Qingshan’s next words were explosive enough.
He first asked about the Ministry of Revenue.
After Lin Zhiqing answered seriously based on his memory.
Lin Qingshan finally spoke:
"Qing girl, the Lin family has always had a secret..."
