Listening to the unbearable remarks made by passers-by, Lin Han and Xiao Xiang couldn't help but frown, regretting not asking someone to drive them there.
But it only took one night for things to ferment to this point. As everyone knows, it would have been impossible without Du Yuesheng's efforts.
Lin Han has clenched his fists and wants to take action because Xiaoxiang is his friend!
It would be fine if it was an insult to him, but insulting Xiaoxiang? That couldn't be let go.
But just as he was about to catch a domineering man, Xiaoxiang held his hand and shook his head.
"They are all a group of people who have been kept in the dark. Besides, it's useless to beat them up. Do you think you will beat up every person who says something to you on the road? That will only play into Du Yuesheng's hands. If they cause trouble again, our image will be even worse!"
What Xiaoxiang said made sense. Lin Han nodded slightly, exhaled, and calmed down.
The two endured the strange looks from people along the way and arrived at Zhang Yongnian's house.
However, before they could enter, they were stopped by someone. After all, there were rumors outside that it was Xiaoxiang who seduced the man, ordered him to poison Zhang Yongnian, and steal the treasure map.
The security guards at Zhang Yongnian's home would naturally not take the risk of letting them in, otherwise what if Zhang Yongnian got into trouble again? They couldn't afford the responsibility.
"You were here yesterday, so you should know that we are not interested in the treasure map, right? This is a conspiracy to frame us. We have already received Zhang Yongnian's promise, so why do you want to shoot yourself in the foot?"
Lin Han stood in front of the two big men and explained to them earnestly.
However, the two men seemed to have not heard a word and looked at Lin Han and Xiao Xiang with gloomy faces.
Although they did not take action, they had no intention of letting Lin Han and Xiao Xiang in.
Lin Han sighed helplessly and gave Xiaoxiang a look, and Xiaoxiang immediately took out the parchment scroll and handed it to them.
"This is the treasure map. To show our sincerity, we will return it to Zhang Yongnian. We are not the ones who poisoned Zhang Yongnian. We are also victims. We should stand on the same side now. Moreover, I can help Zhang Yongnian."
Lin Han explained again, judging from the expressions and reactions of these two people, Zhang Yongnian should not have woken up yet, otherwise Zhang Yongnian would definitely not have asked them to be on guard against them, and the entire Zhang family would not be so nervous, with everyone guarding as if they were facing a great enemy.
Yesterday, the Zhang family's house was bustling with people, but now not even a fly can fly in.
A bodyguard took the treasure map, then looked at it suspiciously, but did not take it in immediately. He even sniffed it hard with his nose.
"It wasn't poisoned, nor was it replaced with a fake. This thing is real. It only took one night, it can't be faked."
Lin Han knew what he was worried about, so he answered frankly.
After that, the two bodyguards looked at each other. After exchanging glances, one of them took the treasure map and entered the Zhang family, while the other one still stopped Lin Han and Xiaoxiang at the door, waiting for further instructions.
Waiting for instructions certainly does not mean waiting for instructions from a security captain. Now that Zhang Yongnian is unconscious, there is only one person who can give them instructions.
That's Zhang Yongnian's grandson! Zhang Xiaofeng.
Twenty-six-year-old Zhang Xiaofeng was taking care of the unconscious Zhang Yongnian in the room, tears of reluctance flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, the bodyguard holding the treasure map knocked on the door.
He wiped away his tears, turned around and looked at the bodyguard. Seeing the treasure map in his hand, Zhang Xiaofeng roughly understood what had happened.
"They are coming?"
"Yeah! Right at the door. Any plans?"
The bodyguard asked, which meant to ask whether they should capture Lin Han and Xiao Xiang and force them to tell the truth by using tough measures.
They are better at this kind of work.
"I heard that Lin Han is not easy to deal with. He is good at boxing and kicking. He has fought against many enemies alone before and never lost."
"No matter how powerful he is, he is only one man. Two fists cannot defeat four hands. As long as you give me the order, I will take him down."
The bodyguard looked disdainful. Considering Lin Han's small body, the rumor was most likely false. He could easily break Lin Han's wrist and twist Lin Han's neck.
"How likely do you think it is that they did it?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked, still undecided.
"Didn't the news say that they did it?" The bodyguard was not as smart as Zhang Xiaofeng, and it was difficult for him to see through the intrigues on a daily basis, so he could only judge through the news.
But Zhang Xiaofeng is different. He has encountered many such things and knows how complicated the matter is.
"Let's put it another way. If it were you, would you send the treasure map here early the next morning? What's the reason for doing so?"
"To prove your innocence, right? You must be trying to prove your innocence, so you brought the treasure map."
"No, if they wanted to prove their innocence, they should have come yesterday, but they didn't come yesterday. It means they are not in a hurry to prove their innocence."
"..." The bodyguard fell silent after hearing this. This time he had no idea what Lin Han and Xiao Xiang were up to.
But it’s not his turn to decide anyway.
"So what do you think?" he asked.
Zhang Xiaofeng sighed, "Please ask them to come in. I want to hear what they have to say."
"Yes!" The bodyguard placed the treasure map on the table next to him, then turned and walked out.
Lin Han and Xiao Xiang at the door didn't wait long, but they were already getting a little impatient.
"Let them in!"
After hearing the order, the other bodyguard stepped aside, allowing Lin Han and Xiaoxiang to enter the Zhang family.
The two were taken to Zhang Yongnian's room and met Zhang Xiaofeng in person.
Zhang Yongnian has no children, so Zhang Xiaofeng is actually his adopted grandson.
Lin Han heard from others that Zhang Xiaofeng was very filial, and even though they were not related by blood, the relationship between them was far better than that between other grandfathers and grandchildren.
Zhang Yongnian was lying on the bed, unconscious, but he seemed to be fine.
The bodyguard who brought them in was now standing behind them, staring at them intently, and it was obvious that he was on guard against them.
As long as Lin Han and Xiaoxiang show any unusual behavior, he will take action immediately.
"Mr. Zhang!" Seeing that Zhang Xiaofeng had no intention of speaking, Lin Han spoke himself.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Xiaofeng looked at Lin Han with a gloomy face and asked coldly.
It can be seen that now, before there is other evidence to prove that it was done by someone else, Lin Han is the prime suspect, so it is normal for him to be indifferent to Lin Han, but this is also pretended, and it is a bit too much.
The main purpose was to see Lin Han’s reaction.
After seeing Zhang Xiaofeng's reaction, Lin Han was not too surprised. He had known that the conversation would not go smoothly, at least not at the beginning.
