Lin Yu used a clever trick to make Zhang San lose control of his emotions and reveal Zhang Yu as the mole.
The truth has come out!
The Liu family immediately called the police, and law enforcement officers arrived at the scene and took Zhang Yu, Zhang San, and others away.
Zhang Yu committed theft.
Zhang San and several other bosses were accused of manufacturing and selling counterfeit goods, and were arrested and placed under investigation.
As for the betting agreement between Zhang San and Liu Zhongyi, it takes effect immediately, and all of Zhang San's properties will belong to the Liu family.
Despite the crisis, the Liu family not only escaped unscathed, but actually made a fortune.
The police acted swiftly.
When Lin Yu and Liu Zhongyi returned to Cuihua Pavilion, news came from the police station that Zhang Yu had confessed and that law enforcement officers had found the three stolen antiques in his home.
The evidence is conclusive!
"Young friend Lin, our Liu family was able to overcome this crisis entirely thanks to you! I am truly grateful!"
Liu Zhongyi personally served tea to Lin Yu, his gratitude evident in his words.
Lin Yu accepted the gift with both hands and said with a smile, "Old Liu, you're too kind. It was just a small favor, nothing to mention!"
Liu Zhongyi said with a serious expression, "You can't say that. If it weren't for young friend Lin's strong support, the losses to our Liu family this time would have been immeasurable! Our ancestors' reputation would have been ruined in my hands!"
"You have no idea, I didn't sleep a wink all night last night, haha, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief now!"
Liu Siyun's eyes reddened as she stood to the side.
The business loss wasn't a big deal, but if her grandfather suffered a blow and something happened to him, she didn't know how she would cope.
I really want to thank Mr. Lin this time!
Lin Yu smiled and said, "This is all thanks to your virtuous character, Elder Liu. Your honest business practices, your fight against counterfeit goods, and your unwavering commitment to high profits are truly admirable!"
"Young friend Lin, please don't flatter me!" Liu Zhongyi waved his hand, then, remembering something, said, "Today's successful resolution of the case and defeat of Zhang San is largely thanks to you, young friend Lin! Once I've taken stock of Zhang San's assets, I will hand them all over to you, young friend Lin! In addition, our Cuihua will also contribute 20% of our shares to you, as a way for me to repay your kindness!"
Liu Siyun looked astonished.
I never expected that Grandpa would actually give shares to Lin Yu as a way of repaying him!
But then she thought about it again and felt relieved.
If it weren't for Lin Yu, the Liu family might have fallen into ruin this time, so it's understandable that Grandpa made this decision!
Lin Yu waved his hands repeatedly, "Grandpa, you can keep the assets and shares for yourself! Miss Liu and I are friends, and friends should naturally help each other. Talking about money is just too cliché!"
Liu Siyun quickly said, "Mr. Lin, my grandfather valued his reputation most in his life. By protecting the reputation of our Liu family, you have protected my grandfather's life. This is what you deserve!"
Lin Yu shook his head again: "The old man cares about his reputation, but I value relationships. If you insist on giving me shares, it will make me lose those relationships, so please don't make things difficult for me!"
When it comes to sentimentality, that's a bit of a strong statement!
The grandfather and grandson exchanged a glance and shook their heads helplessly.
Liu Zhongyi sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I won't make things difficult for you, young friend Lin. But from now on, you will be an honored guest of our Liu family. If you have any requests, just give the word, and our Liu family will do everything in our power to fulfill them!"
"You flatter me, sir!"
Lin Yu smiled, glanced at the time, and said, "It's getting late, I need to go back and have dinner with my wife, so I'll take my leave now!"
Liu Siyun quickly said, "Mr. Lin, let me see you off!"
Liu Zhongyi also stood up and personally escorted Lin Yu to the door.
Watching the departing figure, Liu Zhongyi's eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Siyun, what do you think of young friend Lin?"
"Mr. Lin?" Liu Siyun's pretty face flushed red, and she said, "Grandpa, Mr. Lin is certainly very good, but he's already married!"
Liu Zhongyi shook his head and sighed, "Young friend Lin is so unassuming and doesn't covet fame or fortune. I really can't imagine what kind of family could attract such a son-in-law!"
"Um..." Liu Siyun hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Grandpa, I've met Mr. Lin's wife before. Her family is just a small, insignificant family in Fengtian. But Miss Lu herself is very capable; she owns her own company! And Mr. Lin is their son-in-law who married into the family!"
"Oh? A man of Lin's stature, a dragon among men, is actually willing to become a live-in son-in-law?"
Liu Zhongyi found it somewhat unbelievable.
"Alas, if my Liu family had such a son-in-law, it would be like adding wings to a tiger! What a pity! What a pity!" Liu Zhongyi couldn't help but sigh.
"Grandpa, what are you saying!" Liu Siyun scolded, her pretty face turning even redder.
Liu Zhongyi smiled but remained silent.
As a grandfather, how could he not see through his granddaughter's little scheme?
If Lin Yu had married into a powerful family, he might have advised his granddaughter not to get too involved.
However, the fact that the other party married into a minor, insignificant family adds a layer of suspense to the matter.
The Liu family was, after all, a well-known and prominent family in Guanzhong. In terms of wealth alone, they were among the top three!
Lin Yu is willing to be a son-in-law of a small family, so he might as well be a son-in-law of the Liu family!
With the other party's expertise in antiques, if they could join the Liu family, the Liu family would surely shine brightly in the national antique world!
Thinking this, Liu Zhongyi felt a faint sense of anticipation, and his gaze towards his granddaughter held a hint of expectation.
Liu Siyun felt embarrassed by the old man's stare and couldn't help but look away.
