Grandpa Lin looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked, "Qinghuan, what are your thoughts on Piaoxue's disappearance?"
"Grandpa, I don't have any opinion," Lin Qinghuan said.
She wouldn't voice her opinions, even if she had them.
Her relationship with Lin Piaoxue was like fire and water. She didn't care whether Lin Piaoxue was alive or dead. However, Lin Piaoxue's disappearance reminded her of seeing Lin Yu and Li Jian together. She suspected that Lin Piaoxue's disappearance was related to these two people, but she had no evidence and could not accuse others casually, as that would be too immoral!
Grandpa Lin didn't like Lin Piaoxue either, but after all, Lin Piaoxue was his own granddaughter and Lin Qinghuan's older sister. Seeing how cold Lin Qinghuan was towards Lin Piaoxue, he said tactfully, "Qinghuan, no matter how wrong Piaoxue is, she is still your older sister."
"Grandpa, Lin Piaoxue is my own sister, but what she did to me was cruel and heartless. You're being lenient by not kicking her while she's down."
As Lin Qinghuan spoke, a trace of sorrow and helplessness appeared on her face. Why do you all try to use family ties to blackmail her? She is a human being too, and she feels pain as well.
The thought of what Lin Piaoxue had done to her made her want to beat her to death. The fact that she didn't lay a hand on Lin Piaoxue and let her fend for herself was already the biggest concession she could make.
Grandpa Lin sighed. Lin Piaoxue was indeed acting inhumanely, so it was understandable that Qinghuan ignored her.
Grandpa Lin fell into deep thought when he thought of the missing Lin Piaoxue. Where had Lin Piaoxue gone? Why was there no news of her? Someone as shrewd as Lin Piaoxue shouldn't have been kidnapped. It was highly likely that she was forcibly taken away.
"Could he have been kidnapped?" Grandpa Lin muttered to himself.
Lin Qinghuan's eyes flickered, and she silently lowered her gaze to her toes. Lin Piaoxue might really have been kidnapped, but not for money, but for revenge.
Justice prevails, and retribution is inevitable; Lin Piaoxue finally paid the price for her infidelity.
Grandpa Lin informed Lin Qing and Lin Feng, who arrived at the villa one after the other, their faces showing a hint of worry.
"Grandpa, what if Piaoxue has been tricked by a conman and taken to some remote mountain forest?" Lin Qing asked.
Before Grandpa Lin could answer, Lin Feng interjected, "That's possible, but Piaoxue is so shrewd, she shouldn't fall for it!"
"I think Piaoxue was forced to leave, or was forced to stay by an acquaintance, which is why she didn't contact her family," Grandpa Lin guessed.
After thinking it over and over again, Lin Feng said with some uncertainty, "Li Jian hates Piaoxue so much, could it be that he turned his love into hatred and deliberately took revenge on Piaoxue by imprisoning her?"
Lin Qinghuan was surprised that Lin Feng would suspect Li Jian.
Lin Qing recalled Li Jian's obsessive behavior towards Lin Piaoxue and somewhat agreed with Lin Feng's statement. However, Lin Piaoxue was already engaged to Li Qiang, and Piaoxue was her future sister-in-law. He shouldn't be so heartless as to deal with Lin Piaoxue!
"Probably not!" Lin Qing said.
"Brother, you said it's probably not possible, which means there's a possibility," Lin Feng said.
Lin Qing looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked with a shameless grin, "Qinghuan, what do you think?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. I wish Lin Piaoxue and Li Jian, those two bad seeds, would stay together forever and stop harming others," Lin Qinghuan said bluntly.
Lin Qing was surprised that Lin Qinghuan would be so blunt, and he also couldn't believe that after so long, Lin Qinghuan still hated Lin Piaoxue so much. He and Lin Feng exchanged a glance, their faces showing embarrassment. They had treated Lin Qinghuan badly before, so Lin Qinghuan must hate them too!
"Put personal grudges aside for now, let's find the person first," Grandpa Lin said, trying to smooth things over.
Lin's father and Lin Qing nodded, and Lin Feng asked, "Grandpa, should we go back to the village?"
"Your parents must be very worried right now. Go back and keep them company; it should bring them some comfort. I have a project to work on and can't leave for the time being, so I won't be going back," Grandpa Lin said to Lin Feng and Lin Qing.
Lin Feng and Lin Qing replied, "We'll take the car back later."
Grandpa Lin sighed, "I hope Piaoxue is alright."
Grandpa Lin doesn't like Lin Piaoxue, but Lin Piaoxue is a member of the Lin family, and he hopes that Lin Piaoxue can live a peaceful and stable life.
Seeing Grandpa Lin's worried expression, Lin Qinghuan's lips moved slightly, but she ultimately didn't speak.
Grandpa Lin saw Lin Qinghuan's expression and asked with a serious face, "Qinghuan, do you know something?"
Lin Qinghuan said frankly, "Grandpa, I've been in the city the whole time and haven't gone back to Baiyun Village. What could I possibly know?"
"Really?" Grandpa Lin asked, somewhat incredulously.
Lin Qinghuan didn't actually attack Lin Piaoxue; at most, she concealed her suspicions. She answered with a clear conscience, "Of course it's true."
"Qinghuan, this concerns Piaoxue's safety. If you know anything, you must tell me," Lin Qing said.
"I really don't know anything. I just saw Li Jian and Lin Yu hanging out together, and I suspected that Lin Piaoxue's disappearance might be related to them," Lin Qinghuan said frankly.
Lin Qing and Lin Feng's expressions changed slightly, and Lin Feng hurriedly asked, "When?"
"On the very day Lin Piaoxue and Li Qiang got engaged, Li Jian brought people to our house and caused a scene. I think these two people must know something about Lin Piaoxue's disappearance," Lin Qinghuan said.
Lin Feng's face was visibly grim. If Lin Piaoxue's disappearance was related to Lin Yu, his marriage to Lin Dafeng might face setbacks, or even be called off.
Seeing Lin Feng's expression, Lin Qinghuan knew what he was thinking. She didn't want to cause any trouble, but Lin Qing forced her to say it. If Lin Feng and Lin Dafeng's marriage fell through, she wouldn't be blamed.
Lin Qing's face darkened, filled with worry. Li Jian and Lin Yu both hated Lin Piaoxue. If the two of them were to collude and harbor any ill intentions towards Lin Piaoxue, the consequences would be unimaginable.
