Chapter 166 A Hollow Building
Lin Shutang and Zhao Lanzhi met on Wednesday. Zhao Lanzhi was waiting in the living room early. When she saw Lin Shutang come in, she asked impatiently without waiting for her to sit down, "What on earth did you do to have such a good marriage canceled? You useless thing."
Her curses were harsh, but Lin Shutang no longer cared.
He sat down on the sofa and picked up a grape from the table and ate it.
It was purple-red and looked ripe, but it tasted sour. Lin Shutang only tasted one and left it alone.
"Are you listening to me?" Zhao Lanzhi cursed again.
Lin Shutang then raised his eyes to look at her: "I heard that the two sums of money that the Jin family invested in my uncle were all wasted?"
Zhao Lanzhi didn't know why Lin Shutang suddenly asked this question. He paused with a ferocious expression and said, "Why are you asking this? We are talking about breaking off the engagement now. Don't change the subject."
Lin Shutang's expression was indifferent, but his words hit home: "Oh, is this considered changing the subject? No matter how rich the Jin family is, it didn't come from the wind. If you throw it into the water, you'll hear a sound. So much money was invested, and not a single cent was recovered. Aunt, instead of doubting me here, you might as well think about whether it's your own fault. If it doesn't work out, persuade uncle. If he's not cut out for it, give up as soon as possible. Stop thinking about it and do some small business like before. It's also good to be stable."
In the early years, the Feng family's development was not very good, and it was only in recent years that they began to make rapid progress. However, this was not because Feng Chengchuan was good at management, but because the projects that the Feng family had been involved in in recent years were all profitable.
Lin Shutang thought about it, and it was probably around that time that the Feng family hooked up with Zhou Congmin. False prosperity could never last long. With Zhou Congmin down, the hollowed-out edifice of the Feng family would naturally crumble. But the Feng family themselves clearly didn't realize this.
There were footsteps and Feng Chengchuan came down from upstairs: "I never realized you were so sharp-tongued before."
Lin Shutang looked up at him and said, "Thank you for the compliment, but I still think I have a more ruthless perspective."
These words clearly denied Feng Chengchuan's talent in business, right in front of him.
Feng Chengchuan's face turned pale, and he could no longer maintain his usual sanctimonious demeanor: "I think you don't want to know the whereabouts of your grandfather."
After he said this, Lin Shutang did not refute immediately, but stared at Feng Chengchuan's eyes and observed him carefully.
This time, he seemed very confident, probably because he had some solid information. It was even possible that Grandpa was already in their hands.
After the old man was mentioned, the person who had been speaking sarcastically just now quieted down, and Zhao Lanzhi's expression instantly became a little proud.
It was like grasping Lin Shutang's vital point.
She took out her cell phone and played a video for Lin Shutang.
Lin Shutang took it and examined it carefully. Although the person taking the photo was standing far away, she could still recognize that it was her grandfather.
After the movie was over, Lin Shutang took out his phone and watched it carefully several times.
Seeing that she was watching the video without saying anything, Zhao Lanzhi reached out and snatched the phone back: "What's the point of watching it here ten thousand times? If you really want to know where your grandfather is, then come with us to the Jin family to apologize and beg them not to cancel the engagement."
Feng Chengchuan also spoke up: "As long as the Jin family doesn't cancel the engagement, I will tell you immediately where your grandfather is."
Lin Shutang remained silent, as if he was thinking. After a while, he spoke: "Let me think about it."
"What else do you need to consider..." Zhao Lanzhi was interrupted by Feng Chengchuan just in the middle of her sentence: "Okay, I promise you. I'll give you two days to think about it. After two days, tell me your answer."
