Chapter 50 [Go on a blind date with me tomorrow night. ]
Lin Shutang received a message from the Feng family on Friday night. They had not yet given up the idea of selling Lin Shutang for profit: "Come with me for a blind date tomorrow night."
Looking at the cold words on the screen, Lin Shutang's thumb trembled slightly.
After she came back from Xicheng last time, she had nightmares for several days in a row. She still felt a little scared when she thought about it now, and instinctively wrote the word "no".
Just as he was about to press send, the person on the other end, as if guessing Lin Shutang would refuse, continued to send messages: [If you go, I will consider letting you meet your grandfather.]
In the end, Lin Shutang chose to agree: [Okay.]
After agreeing, Lin Shutang was distracted, thinking about how to ensure his safety. Unconsciously, he clicked on the circle of friends.
I saw an update on Mr. Chen's WeChat Moments over an hour ago. It was a photo of Chen Runling. It must have been taken by her, with her face very close up, giving it a fisheye effect. The caption read: "Tomorrow I'm going to the mountains with Mom and Dad to soak in hot springs. Yay, so happy."
Lin Shutang took out his cell phone to check and found that there was only one place with hot springs on the mountain near Beijing.
She exited her friend circle and called Zhao Lanzhi: "You can ask me to go, but I'll decide the location. I heard the flowers at Yunwu Villa are pretty good lately, so let's go there!"
Zhao Lanzhi on the other end of the phone rolled her eyes and said, "You have so many troubles." Then she hung up the phone without saying no.
Lin Shutang stared at the screen in his hand, his hands turning pale from exerting too much force.
At five o'clock on Saturday evening, Lin Shutang received a call from Feng's family, saying that they would be arriving soon and asked her to wait at the school gate.
Lin Shutang didn't want the Feng family to know where he lived, so he didn't tell them that he was living in a rental house.
Before leaving, she sent a text message to Jiang Qinyuan, saying that she was going on a blind date tonight and would call the police if she didn't return to school by nine o'clock in the evening.
Jiang Qinyuan saw the message and replied quickly: "What do you mean? You're going to Yunwu Villa for a blind date so late at night?"
"Um."
"Are you okay? You agreed to a request that's clearly ill-intentioned. Yunwu Villa isn't far from the city. If something happens, you'll have nowhere to turn and no one will respond."
When talking to Jiang Qinyuan, Lin Shutang would feel relaxed most of the time. She chuckled and said, "So, I told you!"
"Then can't you ask them to change the place and time?"
Lin Shutang had thought about changing the time, but she had already decided on the location. If she changed the time again, Zhao Lanzhi would definitely be suspicious and would not agree.
"She knows where my grandfather is."
Hearing this, Jiang Qinyuan was at a loss for words. She knew almost everything about Lin Shutang. She had lost her parents since she was young, and the Feng family had treated her badly, leaving her essentially alone.
Her desire for family affection was different from that of ordinary people. Now that she knew her grandfather might still be alive, she was eager to see him. Jiang Qinyuan knew that she couldn't make Lin Shutang change his decision, nor could she say anything to make him give up.
"Okay, then I'll have someone wait inside the villa. I'll give you their phone number later. If anything happens, just call them."
"Okay, thank you."
Jiang Qinyuan said angrily: "Tell me this!"
When Lin Shutang arrived at the school gate, the Feng family had just arrived.
After getting in the car, Zhao Lanzhi looked at Lin Shutang with disgust in every way.
She told the driver, "Go find her a styling studio first."
Then he tilted his head, raised his hand to fix his hair and said, "What shabby stuff are you wearing? It's a disgrace to the Feng family."
You silly girl, you really know how to enjoy yourself, choosing such an expensive place, so expensive, and thinking you are going on vacation!
Lin Shutang didn't want to argue with her, so he kept silent. But he was thinking, this was the first time Zhao Lanzhi had accompanied him personally, and the two previous times, she hadn't been as cautious as this time. This person was probably someone in a high position, someone very important to the Feng family.
