[Chapter 17 Don’t ask him for help in the future]
She knew that Huo Jingze couldn't say anything good.
Lin Yin angrily slapped his hand away and said word by word: "No, Impossible."
Huo Jingze looked at her with a meaningful look in his eyes, "If you don't want to now, don't come to beg me in the future."
Lin Yin said firmly: "I will never beg you even if I die."
Huo Jingze just smiled and said nothing. He stopped talking about this topic and went back to the loan contract. "Let's sign the contract again. Follow me."
The Maybach was parked not far away. Lin Yin refused to take his car, but asked for the address and took the bus.
Huo Jingze looked at her angry back and his thin lips curled up inadvertently.
He is really stubborn.
The bus was slow, and Lin Yin arrived at the coffee shop that Huo Jingze mentioned nearly an hour late.
The contract was signed quickly. Lin Yin put down the pen heavily, feeling a pain in her flesh. She couldn't help but sneer, "Huo Jingze, you are indeed a lawyer. There is no more calculating old fox in the world than you!"
Huo Jingze stirred the coffee gently and said casually, "Thank you for the compliment."
Lin Yin was afraid that she would be angry to death if she stayed any longer, so she left angrily.
…
After getting off the subway, she did not go back to school, but took a bus to Sakura Community.
Hua Yurou lives here, building 3, room 301.
Lin Yin raised her hand and knocked on the door. After half a minute, the door was opened from the inside, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman, who was Hua Yurou's mother.
Mother Hua was slightly startled when she saw Lin Yin, "Xiaoyin, why are you here? What's the matter?"
Lin Yin said directly: "Aunt Hua, I want to ask you about Sister Yu Rou. Has she contacted you recently?"
"Come inside first."
Hua's mother poured a cup of warm water for Lin Yin, then sat down on the single sofa and asked about Lin Ze's situation with concern.
Lin Yin held the cool glass in her hand and said truthfully, "Now neither side has evidence to prove that the other side was the first to attack. It will take a while for the verdict to be made. There is still half a month before the trial."
Hua's mother's worried eyes were filled with heartache, "Your brother is in trouble, and you, a little girl, are busy running around. It must be very hard for you."
Lin Yin smiled and said nothing.
Hua's mother couldn't help but blame her daughter, "Yu Rou is really something. Why is she going abroad at this time? Even if it's arranged by the company, can't she refuse? She would never be like this before..."
"Has Sister Yu Rou contacted you after going abroad?" Lin Yin asked hurriedly.
Hua's mother nodded. "Yu Rou sent me a WeChat message a few days ago, saying that everything was fine abroad, but that we couldn't contact each other until the end of the study, so I didn't need to worry, and she also took a photo and sent it to me."
Lin Yin captured the key information and asked, "What photos? I want to see them."
Hua's mother pulled out a photo from the album. The background of the photo was very simple, a white wall. Hua Yurou was smiling at the camera and looked very happy.
But it gives people an inexplicable weird feeling.
Lin Yin stared at the photo, examining every detail carefully.
Suddenly, she finally understood what was strange about the photo... Hua Yurou seemed to be smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes, and her pupils were dilated.
This is clearly a sign of fear!
The more Lin Yin thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Her fingers unconsciously clenched the phone and she told Hua's mother what she had discovered, and also told her what Lin Ze had said to her.
Hua's mother must contact Hua Yurou to ensure her safety.
Hua's mother actually noticed something was wrong. As a mother, she knows her daughter best. She loves Lin Ze so much, why would he go abroad at this time?
Mother Hua's eyes were filled with deep worry, "Xiaoyin, what should we do?"
Lin Yin's eyes turned, "Aunt Hua, I'll go to Qian's Group with you."
Hua's mother agreed, and immediately took the house key and followed her out. On the way, Lin Yin discussed the excuses with Hua's mother.
The Qian family is a prominent and wealthy businessman in S City, and the group’s headquarters is located in the bustling city center.
Lin Yin walked to the front desk of the lobby and said politely, "Hello, I'm looking for Zhou Huangzong."
Zhou Huangzong is Hua Yurou's direct supervisor. The front desk clerk called and asked Lin Yin and the others to wait in the reception room.
Ten minutes later, a man in a suit and tie came into the reception room.
Lin Yin gestured to Hua's mother, who walked towards the man, her tone anxious: "Hello, I'm Hua Yurou's mother, you are her leader, right? The photos she sent me a few days ago are very wrong, I suspect something has happened to her!"
Hearing this, Zhou Huangzong's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that the person looking for him was Hua Yurou's mother.
He quickly adjusted his expression and said, "That's impossible. Yu Rou was arranged by the company to go abroad. There won't be any problem. Otherwise, we would definitely have received the news."
"I can only feel at ease when I see Yurou. Please let Yurou talk to me on the phone."
Zhou Huangzong looked embarrassed. "I'm afraid that won't work. This study is in cooperation with a foreign institution. During the formal study period, all electronic devices will be confiscated, and the company cannot contact us."
"Then tell me the address and I'll go abroad to find her myself."
"No, that's a confidentiality agreement."
Hua's mother was a little upset. Lin Yin walked up to her, held her hand, and said calmly, "Your company has repeatedly refused to provide proof of Hua Yurou's safety. In this case, we can only call the police."
Zhou Huangzong's expression changed, and he hesitated for a moment, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask the general manager."
The general manager of Qian Group is Qian Yaozu. Qian Yaozu arrived after a while. When he saw Lin Yin was there, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman's figure intently. His interest, which had originally waned, was aroused again.
"Lin Yin, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"
In the corridor outside the reception room, Lin Yin and Qian Yaozu stood face to face.
Qian Yaozu spoke very bluntly, avoiding talking about Hua Yurou's situation and instead bringing up the terms of the deal they had made in the hospital last time -
"Again, stay with me for a year and I'll consider dropping the lawsuit."
"I don't agree to that."
Lin Yin refused without hesitation.
She is much more sober now, and always remembers Huo Jingze's reminder. She won't be stupid enough to jump into the fire pit even though she knows it is a fire pit.
Qian Yaozu was a little surprised. Last time in the hospital, Lin Yin even knelt down in front of him, begging him to let Lin Ze go. She almost agreed to his conditions, but she didn't expect that after a few days, she changed her mind.
He was too lazy to think about the reason, and he lost his patience when the deal failed, so he turned around and left.
"Company rules cannot be broken. Hua Yurou cannot return to the country until her studies are completed. If you want to call the police, go ahead."
Lin Yin blocked Qian Yaozu's way and prevented him from leaving. This behavior angered Qian Yaozu, and he directly called the security guard to come and drive him away.
The security guard was very rude and dragged Lin Yin and Hua's mother out.
Lin Yin stared at Qian Yaozu and suddenly said, "Qian Yaozu, you are simply too guilty to reveal the truth. Where did you send Sister Yurou?"
Qian Yaozu's eyes changed slightly.
At this time, a tall and slender man appeared in the hall.
Huo Jingze was wearing a well-tailored black suit, his facial features were deep and three-dimensional, and his eyebrows and eyes were indifferent.
His eyes swept over Lin Yin, then moved away and looked at Qian Yaozu behind him.
Qian Yaozu quickly restrained his expression, strode over, and smiled, "Cousin, why are you here?"
As he spoke, he calmly gestured to the security guard. Huo Jingze noticed and raised his hand to stop him, saying in a calm tone, "Let them go."
The security guard looked at Qian Yaozu hesitantly, only to see Qian Yaozu frowning slightly. He did not dare to disrespect Huo Jingze and waved his hand to let the security guards leave.
Huo Jingze looked at Lin Yin and said, "Take your people and leave first."
Lin Yin met the man's gaze and stood still.
At this time, he started to be stubborn again.
Huo Jingze approached her and lowered his voice, "I will check Hua Yurou's matter."
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Yin's eyes. How did he know?
Seeing his dark pupils staring at her, Lin Yin inexplicably believed Huo Jingze's words and took Hua Mu away...
Huo Jingze came here today again about the case. After he talked about the normal procedures with Qian Yaozu, he casually mentioned Hua Yurou's name.
"Lin Ze got into trouble, but his girlfriend went abroad at this time. It seems a bit unreasonable."
He sat on the leather sofa, his long legs casually crossed, his back slightly tilted back, his pair of dark eyes casually sweeping over Qian Yaozu...
