Lin Yi continued, "Upon hearing the news of his passing, I immediately rushed back from Beijing to process this batch of cultural relics. Although they weren't donated by Mr. Xu Zhilin himself, I believe this must have been Mr. Xu's wish."
The female reporter was moved. "Mr. Hu, you and Mr. Xu are both very conscious patriots, but I still want to ask you, facing such a huge fortune, are you not tempted at all?"
Lin Yi: "A gentleman has his limits. Mr. Xu was raised by my grandfather, just like my own uncle. I believe there are many things in this world that are much more important than money and material things, such as family, promises, and integrity."
The female reporter nodded in admiration. "Mr. Xu Zhilin, doesn't he have any descendants? Will these donated cultural relics cause any unnecessary disputes in the future?"
The female reporter looked at the interview card in her hand and said, "Yes, that's right. I asked questions exactly as Mr. Hu and the Cultural Relics Bureau asked."
Lin Yi smiled slightly, glanced at the Xu family father and son not far away, and said calmly: "Mr. Xu Zhilin has never been married in his life. He has no direct blood relatives in this world, and no collateral relatives within five generations.
My father had left a will that if there were any descendants of the Xu family or anyone who wanted to bring back Mr. Xu Zhilin's body for burial, this box of antiques would be handed over to them for disposal.
Mr. Xu Zhilin's remains are currently preserved in the cemetery in Y County, M City. I have already obtained the relevant certificates and will soon depart for Y County to bring Mr. Xu Zhilin back and bury him next to his parents, thus fulfilling one of my father's unfulfilled wishes."
As soon as the words fell, there was a cry of surprise from the crowd, followed by Xu Huaiwen's anxious cry: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Dad, wake up quickly."
Xu Tianfang had a stroke.

By the time Lin Yi finished taking care of Xu Zhilin's burial, it was already half a month later. It was quite a while later than the time he had agreed with Hu Guiyuan, so it was time to return to the capital.
The neighbors in his hometown were reluctant to let him go, mainly because his trip to Hainan was too successful, which made these old guys a little wild. Some old men, like Old Man Zhang, said that they were worried about him returning to Beijing alone and wanted to form a group to accompany him back.
Lin Yi: "Yes, you guys go and see me off. After you send me off, I'll send you off. We won't have to do anything else in this life."
He strongly rejected everyone's suggestion, but promised that when the weather gets warmer, he will entrust the travel agency to organize another sunset tour group tour in Beijing, and asked everyone to take care of their health so that they will not fall behind.
Then, he left quietly on a clear morning.
After returning to the capital exhausted, Hu Guiyuan was indeed getting anxious and complained to him why he didn't call back.
Lin Yi smiled and said he forgot. He checked the flexibility and softness of Hu Guiyuan's fingers and began to teach him the Hu family gambling skills he learned from Hu Xingyun.
Half a year later, Hu Guiyuan finally had a complete grasp of the situation, and it was time for Lin Yi to leave. However, some promises had to be fulfilled once they were made.
In order to avoid having to deal with two different people, he contacted the same travel agency as last time. The person who came to deal with him was still the same salesperson. Everyone cooperated more happily than last time. They signed the contract by fax, transferred the money, and formed a group. Within a week, all the old neighbors arrived in Beijing.
This was also half of Lin Yi and Hu Guiyuan's home turf. They took everyone to take photos at the foot of the Great Wall (it was impossible to climb up), watch the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square, and also accompanied them to visit all the other attractions they had mentioned before.
Not to mention food, Lin Yi had plenty of money, so he bought everything, famous or not. Before leaving, he even took them to Peking University's dental department to get their teeth fixed.
Hu Guiyuan also entertained his family during this trip, using common gambling techniques to perform several magic tricks for everyone. He was also taking a different approach, indirectly living up to the Hu family's legacy.
Later, with his unpredictable magic skills, he appeared on the stage of various celebrations in the school, and people from the city TV station invited him to perform at the New Year's Eve party.
He is also a frequent guest on legal programs, where he educates people on gambling techniques and deciphers scams. He has also filmed many anti-gambling public service announcements, accumulating immense merit. People in the underworld jokingly call him the Great Thousand King.
After Lin Yi returned to the Spacetime Administration, the assistant told him that the client, the Hu family, was very satisfied with the temporary assignment. Although they didn't get to see Hu Guiyuan get married and have children, they said they were already very content.
He also wrote a heartfelt thank-you letter to Lin Yi and asked his assistant to convey it.
Lin Yi waved his hand and didn't take it, signaling his assistant to deal with the letter directly.
The rejected assistant was still very excited: "They gave a super satisfactory evaluation. This is the only full score evaluation you have received in your recent tasks. Congratulations."
