"What? What can a cripple like him do?" Lin An asked out of genuine curiosity. According to his guess, Lin Zhe's range of activities was limited to going from the bed to the toilet, and he probably needed someone to help him even to go to the toilet.
"He hooked up with a coal mine owner!"
"What?!" Lin An was taken aback upon hearing this. It seemed he had underestimated Lin Zhe. He frowned and asked, "How did he seduce him?"
Tong Jun waved her pinky finger in the air and scolded, "Hey, is that even important?"
"Is this process important? Shouldn't you first ask who this coal mine owner is and what his background is?"
Lin An said calmly, "I'm more curious about how he hooked up with her. As far as I know, she has lost some of her functions, and she should be in a wheelchair now."
"From what I understand, he offered a bribe to this coal mine owner and got a new position as president of the Beijing branch."
"What did he offer? Was it an antique left by my grandfather?" Lin An's tone became tense.
He didn't really care about Lin Zhe. In fact, Lin An always felt that it would be easy for him to defeat Lin Zhe. He was just like a cat, enjoying the process of tormenting a mouse, and Lin Zhe was the mouse in his eyes.
Cats don't eat mice right away after catching them. They play with them, letting them go from time to time to encourage them to struggle and escape, only to catch them again. They only eat mice when the mice have completely given up.
Of course, sometimes things go too far and the mouse gets away.
Lin An was starting to feel that way. He regretted not taking Lin Zhe's things directly and turning him into a useless person despised by the world. After all, the matter involved his grandfather, Lin Tianyou, who was his family, and this was something he absolutely did not want to see.
Tong Jun replied, "I don't know, but that coal mine owner has already told many people that he has obtained a priceless treasure and will choose an auspicious day to show it to everyone."
"However, judging from the timing of Lin Zhe's entry into his family's company, it is highly likely that it was your grandfather's stuff."
"This coal mine owner's surname is Qian. He came to Beijing at the beginning of this year. He used to do coal business in the autonomous region, but the coal business has not been doing well in recent years, so he moved to Beijing to do liquor and medicinal wine business."
After listening to Tong Jun's introduction, Lin An immediately asked, "Since he's active in the capital, he must give the Tong family some face, right?"
"Damn it! That's an idiot!" Tong Jun suddenly said in a manly tone, "He's just an uncultured nouveau riche. I called him, and he said he didn't know the Tong family."
"After arriving in the capital, this fool went straight to Panjiayuan, bought a bunch of fakes, and befriended a group of low-class antique dealers, all of whom were criminals."
"He hasn't integrated into Beijing's business community at all; he's still an outsider. He ignored my warnings and even hung up on me!"
Tong Jun became increasingly angry as she spoke, and started cursing: "That idiot claims to be worth billions. This kind of person is clearly not commensurate with his wealth. He'll be in big trouble sooner or later!"
Some people make money too easily, so they naturally think they are invincible and awesome, which is understandable.
Lin An rubbed his throbbing temples; he was starting to get a headache too.
Tong Jun continued, "Lin An, don't worry. Once your aunt returns to the Tong family and reconciles with my grandfather, I'll immediately tell him about you. After all, you're part of the Tong family, so my grandfather definitely won't stand idly by."
"As long as the old man intervenes, there will definitely be a way to make the other party hand over Lin Zhe and return the things left by your grandfather."
"Besides, Auntie will be home in the next few days, it won't be long."
Hearing Tong Jun say this, Lin An knew that the other party truly considered him a brother, and said with emotion:
"Cousin, you're so kind!"
Upon hearing this, Tong Jun couldn't help but tremble. After a few seconds, he said in a firm tone:
"Lin An, don't overthink it. I like women, but I treat you like a younger brother."
Upon hearing this, Lin An felt a buzzing in the back of his head. He rubbed his forehead and said urgently:
"Cousin, I don't care whether you like girls or not, but I really feel that you treat me like a younger brother. From now on, you are my older brother, and your business is my business."
"You have to care! I just like women!"
"Okay, okay! I understand."
"I'll say it again, I just like women! I like women with curves in all the right places, the kind that's got a great figure." Tong Jun shouted into the microphone, one hand on her phone and the other on her hip.
"Okay, let's get down to business!"
"Hey! How can this not be important? This is important."
Lin An felt like he had stirred up a hornet's nest, and quickly apologized:
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I have something more important to tell you. Our company has been targeted recently, and I suspect it's this coal mine owner you mentioned! Could you provide me with detailed information about him?"
Tong Jun lowered her hand from her hip: "This is simple, I can get it to you in no time."
Lin An continued, "Especially things like illegal business dealings."
"The fact that this person can hang out with Lin Zhe shows that birds of a feather flock together; he's definitely not a good person. As long as I can find something to use against him, I'll have a way to deal with them."
“Okay, I’ll arrange for someone to investigate,” Tong Jun replied.
......
Meanwhile, the detective agency staff had caught up with Zhang Wanru.
After leaving Xiao An's company, she returned to Chen Xiaohe's villa to cultivate her relationship with him.
Upon seeing her, Chen Xiaohe immediately inquired about the progress: "How did it go? Did you go to see Lin An? Did you get what I asked for?"
Zhang Wanru looked at the other person pitifully and asked in confusion:
"Xiao He, why do I feel like you like my son more than me?"
Chen Xiaohe forced an awkward smile:
"Wanru, what are you saying? I'm just extending my affection to you because I love you. My concern for Lin An is definitely because I care about you."
"Wanru, I just really wanted to be with you openly and legitimately. I'm sorry, I was too hasty."
Zhang Wanru playfully punched Chen Xiaohe's chest with her little fist and said coquettishly, "It's good that you like me."
Seeing that her mood had improved, Chen Xiaohe repeated his question: "Did you get Lin An's things?"
"Oh dear, my child isn't at the company today. I didn't see him. I'll go find him tomorrow," Zhang Wanru said, making excuses.
Chen Xiaohe's face darkened; he probably didn't have much time to wait.
Zhang Wanru was delighted and wanted to go into Chen Xiaohe's bedroom to rest for a while.
"Wanru, I have to go out. Let me take you home first."
Chen Xiaohe's voice was cold, and Zhang Wanru was at a loss. Didn't he just say that he liked her very much?
She asked, bewildered, "Xiao He, can't I stay?"
