"Son, I'm so glad you're alright! You scared me to death!" Madam Fan was overjoyed to see Lin Shikang; she had been worried sick the whole way.
The others were relieved to see that Lin Shikang was still alive. They really didn't know what to do if Lin Shikang had died here.
"Mother, don't cry, I'm fine." After comforting her, Lin Shikang said to Yuan Yajing, "Miss Yuan, I will never forget your life-saving grace."
"Lord Lin, you're too kind. You saved me too."
"I have another favor to ask of you."
"Please speak, Lord Lin."
"Please take the trouble to help my family settle in the county government office. Once I have recovered, I will personally visit to express my gratitude."
Lin Shikang felt exhausted. No one in his family could stand on their own. Even after his accident, they still had to worry about this and that. He couldn't help but think of Yang Cui.
Given Yang Cui's abilities, she would surely be able to handle things perfectly in this situation, so he wouldn't need to worry about it at all.
"These are minor matters, Lord Lin, please get some rest," Yuan Yajing said.
Madam Fan: "Da Ya, you stay here to take care of your father."
"Grandma, don't call me Daya, it sounds awful." Lin Daya now dislikes the name, feeling it's too rustic and doesn't suit her status as a rich young lady.
Madam Fan slapped her on the forehead: "You dare to talk back! You've been calling me that for so many years, why can't you call me that now?"
Lin Huihui lowered her head in grievance and stopped talking. If her grandmother got angry soon, she would be even more embarrassed.
“Donkey Egg and Cow Egg should also stay and help. Daya is a girl, so it might be inconvenient for her sometimes.” Madam Fan felt that Donkey Egg and Cow Egg had cost them a lot of money along the way, so they should do some work.
Yuan Yajing had the monkey take Fan Shi and the others to the back office to settle down. After leaving the clinic, she went straight home.
"Second Miss, you're back."
"Uncle Leopard, where's my dad?"
"The master is waiting for you in his study."
Yuan Yajing went directly to the study and met Yuan Weimin.
"Are you alright?" Yuan Weimin asked with concern.
Yuan Yajing shook her head: "My daughter is fine."
"The person who arrested you is definitely He Yunliang. Don't worry, even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find him! How dare he touch my daughter, Yuan Weimin's daughter! He's got a death wish!" Yuan Weimin slammed his fist on the table in anger. It was all his subordinates' fault for being too careless and letting He Yunliang escape. Otherwise, his daughter wouldn't be in danger today! It's true what they say, "If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze!"
After finishing his explanation, Yuan Weimin inquired about Lin Shikang's situation.
Yuan Yajing then truthfully told Yuan Weimin about her observations.
Do you know who wants to kill him?
Yuan Yajing shook her head: "The other party's kung fu is exceptionally good, and they are well-trained. The people Yuan Ye sent couldn't catch up with them."
"I heard he has a daughter. You can get to know him better and learn more about him."
...
Medical clinic.
Fang Lei rushed in to report: "Sir, I have found out that Miss Yuan is the daughter of Yuan Weimin, the magistrate of Ganning County!"
Ganning County has no county magistrate; all government affairs are handled by the county assistant magistrate. Several county magistrates have died, but the county assistant magistrate has remained in good health, which is something to ponder.
Lin Shikang guessed that he was probably involved in the deaths of the county magistrates in Ganning County.
Could the person who assassinated him be related to him?
Those masked men were well-trained; if Yuan Yajing's people hadn't arrived, he would have certainly died. If the assassins were from the forces of Ganning County, then Yuan Yajing wouldn't have needed to save him.
So who exactly wanted to assassinate me?
Could it be Yang Cui?
If Yang Cui hired the killer, it means she's not dead yet! And she suspects me and is starting to retaliate!
Does this mean Mingcai has already been exposed?
Gan Ning, where he was located, was already in turmoil, and now Yang Cui was trying to kill him. With the Star Gazing Tower as her backer, it wouldn't be difficult for Yang Cui to find a few agile assassins. He was truly besieged on all sides.
It seems we need to be extra careful.
At this moment, Fang Lei added, "I have also heard that Miss Yuan is deeply favored by Magistrate Yuan."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shikang's mind started racing. He had a strong feeling that Yuan Yajing might be his turning point!
