Chapter 184 The truth behind the human trafficking case slowly comes to light



Lin Yunfei knocked on the director's office door, but the person inside didn't open it for her for a long time.

Thinking the person inside didn't recognize her, she softly called out, "Brother, it's me."

No one answered the door.

[Monthly Income of One Million: Isn't Director Lin in his room? Why didn't he open the door for his sister?]

[Oh my god: Director Lin is here. I just saw him go back to his room. As for why he didn't open the door for my sister, I don't know... Director Lin seems really out of sorts today...]

Lin Yunfei was also very anxious.

The main reason was indeed because she wasn't innocent, and she was afraid that he would find out something, which led to his unusual behavior today.

No, I have to get to the bottom of this today.

Just as she raised her hand to knock on the door again, the door suddenly opened.

Jian Chun poked her head out from inside, her eyes cold and unfamiliar, with a hint of wariness.

Lin Yunfei wanted to go in and talk to him, but he didn't seem to want her to come in.

She increasingly felt that he must have discovered something, and in her anxiety, she blurted out in the hallway, "Brother, why didn't I say a word to you today? Did I do something wrong?"

Jian Chun hesitated for a moment, then remembered Jian Zhizhen's instructions.

His sister told him to only reply with "hmm" to everyone.

So he nodded silently: "Mm."

Lin Yunfei's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes widened instantly.

What does he mean?

Could it be that... all those things I did...

He found out about everything?

The audience was equally shocked:

[Qing Si Shan Cha: It's actually true! What did I do wrong? Tell me quickly!]

[Wen Chen: Wow, Lin Yunfei totally exposed herself this time!]

[Congcong is a conch: No wonder Director Lin was acting so strangely today. I thought Jian Zhizhen and Qin Yubai had done something to him in the bathroom, but it turns out it's because he discovered Lin Yunfei did something wrong, so he's in a bad mood and doesn't want to talk?]

Lin Yunfei hurriedly tried to explain, "Brother, it's not what you think... I..."

But she stopped talking right after explaining this.

Because they didn't know what Lin Yi had discovered.

Was it a deliberate warning to the robbers, or something even earlier where CL2 harmed Jian Zhizhen, or perhaps inducing Zhai Qinghe to commit suicide...? Even more serious, could it be that the nanny took him away back then...?

It's not that I can't come up with a reason to explain, but since we're still recording a show, the more I say, the more mistakes I'll make, and the more I explain, the more the audience will know.

She had no choice but to shut her mouth, giving "Lin Yi" a mournful look.

Even if he discovered her wrongdoing, were their years-long relationship just a lie?

He didn't give her any face at all, and wouldn't even talk to her privately?

Lin Yunfei forced a smile, her heart clenching with pain. She pleaded with "Lin Yi," "Brother, I'll go back to record the show first. The misunderstanding between us... is a matter between our Lin family members. After the show, we can talk it over privately, okay?"

Jian Chun replied expressionlessly, "Mm."

Faced with his reaction, Lin Yunfei didn't know whether to be saddened by his coldness towards her.

We should still be thankful that he at least showed us some decency...

She dared not linger any longer and went back to her room to conduct a live broadcast as a guest.

Jian Chun also closed the door.

[Hu Tao: What on earth happened?! I'm so anxious! Is it related to who Director Lin's brother is?!]

[Yifei Doesn't Want to Fly: Since you've already revealed it, Actress Lin, why don't you just say it? If you don't, the audience might speculate in the worst possible way.]

[yep: They've already said it's "the Lin family's business," so you don't need to pressure her so much, do you? Can't she have some private matters? Especially those accounts that are most active, don't think we can't tell you're Jian Zhizhen fans!]

[Yaoyang: We are indeed Zhenzhen's fans. We are concerned about this because there has been no progress in Zhenzhen's search for her brother. Now... don't you think there's finally a glimmer of hope? So we want to know if the friction between Lin Yi and Lin Yunfei is really because of the "brother" identity.]

[momo: I'm not a fan of Jian Zhizhen, I'm a long-time fan of Yunfei, but what she just said clearly shows she admitted she did something wrong, right? I hope she can realize her mistakes and correct them; it's not too late, and she shouldn't end up like Zhai Qinghe...]

...

Jian Chun returned to her room, sat on the sofa, and stared at the device on her wrist, her eyes fixed on the changing seconds.

My sister said she would come to find him in half an hour.

So he had to obediently wait for time to pass.

Suddenly, a caller ID popped up on the time display screen.

Jian Chun panicked instantly.

This device isn't the kind he used when he was a child. He only knows how to tell the time; he doesn't know how to hang up.

He pressed a few buttons randomly, and to his surprise, the call connected.

A middle-aged man's stern voice came from the other end: "How could you embarrass your sister during a live broadcast? Do you have some kind of grudge against her?"

Simple and hesitant.

My sister said that he responds with "hmm" to anyone who talks to him.

Then... does the person on the phone count?

It should count, right?

So he replied casually, "Mm."

Lin Zong gasped, "You...you know about what happened back then?"

Jian Chun: "Mm."

Lin Zong said anxiously, "It's not what you think, this matter is very complicated! Your sister... your sister has indeed done a lot for you, but it's all... sigh, it's hard to explain when we're far apart. Let's talk about it face to face when you come back, okay?"
