Chapter 405: Losing Face and Begging for Help
Yin Zhengting was in a meeting all morning, and Yin Dong waited in his office until noon before meeting with him.
As soon as Yin Zhengting entered the room, Yin Dong stood up from the sofa, "Uncle."
Yin Zhengting slowly scanned his face and asked, "You look so bad, did you not sleep well?"
Yin Dong hadn't slept all night. He called Yin Zhengting at 7 a.m. to arrange a meeting. He said calmly, "I rushed to see you. I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep."
Yin Zhengting smiled faintly. "That's strange. You've always been so busy that even an uncle like me has to schedule an appointment in advance just to see you. How come I've suddenly become so charming? Is it me who's keeping you awake, or is it someone else?"
Yin Dong didn't even have the energy to joke, and went straight to the point, "Uncle, since you already know everything, I won't waste your time. Can you give me a clear answer and help me?"
Yin Zhengting slowly sat down on the sofa and glanced at him sideways, "Are you so anxious that you can't hold your breath?"
Yin Dong kept a sullen face and said nothing.
How could he not be anxious? He now wished he could cut Xue Shan into pieces. The anger in his chest could not be released and could explode at any time and anywhere. There was no telling what he would do.
Yin Zhengting took one look at him and knew what he was up to. "Don't be impulsive. Isn't the Xue family quiet right now? I think your girlfriend is quite smart. She knows how to use public opinion to exert pressure. This little girl is brave and resourceful."
"She is good."
Yin Dong took a deep breath and sat down.
Yin Zhengting's smile deepened. "Are you so determined to have her that you can't have her anymore? Last time we met, I remember you said you had no plans to marry her. Why are you going back on your word? For her, you're even willing to lower your face and beg for help?"
Yin Dong was silent for two seconds, then said, "If nothing unexpected happens, she will be your niece's wife."
Yin Zhengting gave him a serious look, his expression paused, and said, "I'm afraid your father wouldn't agree?"
Yin Dong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and Yin Zhengting was deliberately beating around in circles with him.
He tried his best to suppress his anger. "If he agrees, I won't need to ask you to come out. Uncle, my girlfriend and Xue Shan are sworn enemies. Her mother was humiliated and her father was wrongfully killed. I can't let the Xue family go. The white road is blocked, so I have to find another way."
"Don't talk nonsense," Yin Zhengting finally put away his distracted expression and said calmly, "You regret it now. What were you doing before? You insisted on resigning and going into business, and no one could stop you. You looked down on the bureaucracy, but you were free from official duties. Now you understand the difficulties."
Yin Dong understood Yin Zhengting's hint and his expression eased slightly. "How about staying inside? Even though I'm in this position now, I'm still cautious and hesitant. You're so afraid of the Xue family."
Yin Zhengting: "You little brat, are you even resorting to provocation?"
Yin Dong stood up from his seat and said indifferently, "I'm just being realistic. Tell the old man for me that as long as the Xue family falls, I'll return to the system. Aren't you all eager for me to inherit your legacy? Show me your swords and see which is sharper, yours or my knife."
Yin Zhengting's tone finally darkened, "Yin Dong, don't mess around with me!"
Yin Dong turned around and left without even looking back.
On the afternoon of the same day, the police issued another notice, detaining Xue Shan for 15 days and fined him one thousand yuan for violating the Public Security Administration Punishment Regulations by assaulting and injuring others causing minor injuries.
Along with this regulation, there was also a sudden reversal of public opinion online.
