Chapter 673: Chapter 0673: Wait for Boss Bei to Come Back Before Discussing
It’s no exaggeration to say that right now, the majority of Huaxia is focusing on the Lin Qingyun incident, with countless eyes watching intently!
The Lin family of the capital!
As the helmsman of the Lin family, the old eccentric Lin Zhennan was currently filled with anger!
Lin Zhennan was already eighty, but due to good maintenance and his especially rigorous exercise routine, he looked more like a man in his sixties or seventies.
The Lin Qingyun incident had blown up so significantly that Lin Zhennan could not possibly remain unaware, even if he wished to.
Now it was impossible to suppress. The Lin family must confront this matter and find the best way to resolve it; otherwise, their family name would undoubtedly be tarnished.
Within the Lin family hall, every member of the Lin family didn’t dare to breathe too heavily, all hanging their heads low, not daring to look at Lin Zhennan.
They all knew that Lin Zhennan’s heart was filled with indescribable fury at this moment. Whoever dared to speak now was essentially signing their death warrant!
No one knew how long had passed when Lin Zhennan suddenly raised his hand and slammed it down heavily onto the table!
"Smack!"
After hearing that dull sound, everyone’s heart skipped a beat in unison!
"Utter nonsense!" Lin Zhennan’s face was taut with indescribable anger, "Such a huge incident, and I only find out about it now. If not for the news, would you even have told me?"
"Where is Wen Yuan?"
"Dad, Wen Yuan seems still to be in Jiangzhong City and has not returned yet..." a medium-built, slightly balding middle-aged man with glasses, who looked very cultured, said hastily.
"Tell him to roll back here!" Lin Zhennan said sternly, "Wasn’t the last incident with Feng Xingjiu not enough trouble?"
"Now another scandal like this one? Do you all think the Lin family is invincible, that we can cover the sky with one hand?"
"No one is allowed to meddle in this affair with that beast Lin Qingyun; let him deal with the trouble he’s caused by himself!"
"Dad, Wen Yuan only has this one son, if..."
"One son?" Lin Zhennan snorted coldly, "I don’t have only this one grandson!" 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
"All these years, I have turned a blind eye to what you’ve all been doing, but now you’ve really crossed the line, daring to abduct someone in broad daylight!"
"Moreover, the person abducted is connected to Qin Fenghuang’s son. Do you think just because Qin Fenghuang is dead, her son, who has never appeared in public, can be bullied by others?"
As soon as Lin Zhennan’s words fell, everyone couldn’t help but inhale a cold breath.
Qin Fenghuang’s son?
The person they had provoked this time was actually Qin Fenghuang’s son, and if that was indeed the case, then it would be very difficult to settle this matter amicably!
Lin Zhennan was not truly merciless; he too wanted to save Lin Qingyun, but now he was powerless, only able to watch Lin Qingyun die before his eyes!
He even had to personally decree Lin Qingyun’s death.
For an old man, an octogenarian, this was undoubtedly a colossal torture and pain that no one who has not experienced it could ever comprehend.
But Lin Zhennan had to endure this pain because the other party was in the right, and they were not!
Moreover, Ye Xunhuan was Qin Fenghuang’s son. If he dared to act, Qin Pojun would surely act too, and then it would be war between the Lin and Qin families.
"Now, everyone back off immediately, and while you’re at it, have a statement published in the major media, admitting fault and apologizing. Let Lin Qingyun be sentenced according to the law—kill if we must. Whoever challenges the law, there’s one outcome: death!"
As his words fell, Lin Zhennan rose and left the room.
After Lin Zhennan left, all the Lin family members couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh.
This was Qin Fenghuang’s son who had not shown his face in over twenty years; although he had not returned to the Qin family, he still held an absolute status there, and that woman was still alive!
Messing with her nephew, she would definitely dare to make a scene at the Lin household. By then, even Lin Zhennan would have no means to deal with her.
Lin Qingyun was doomed.
The Lin family would also be implicated, which was the true thought in everyone’s mind.
After Lin Zhennan returned to the Lin family’s back yard, he sat down at a stone table in the courtyard and let out a heavy breath.
At that moment, an old woman with a head full of silver hair came out of the house carrying tea!
After she arrived next to Lin Zhennan, the old woman poured him a cup of tea, "Master, don’t be too angry, getting angry is harmful to your health..."
"Granny, these evildoers, tell me, isn’t causing trouble once enough? They haven’t learned their lesson, and they even..."
Lin Zhennan didn’t finish his sentence and just picked up the tea in front of him and gulped it down!
The woman Lin Zhennan called Granny refilled his cup and softly said, "The larger the forest, the more kinds of birds there are. But this time, I’m afraid Young Master Qingyun really can’t escape his fate!"
Lin Zhennan sighed softly, "What can be done? There’s no saving him. If I intervene, that old man Qin Pojun will definitely take action. Qin Fenghuang is his only daughter, and Ye Xunhuan is his only grandson. Love for the house extends even to the crows on its roof—he surely has deep affection for that bastard."
"If I touch him, it would be like stabbing a knife into Qin Pojun’s back, and he will surely fight me to the death!"
Just as Qin Po had said, Lin Zhennan was a smart man; he knew what he had to do.
"If only Bei Ye were here, things would be better!" Granny exclaimed.
Lin Zhennan gave a bitter smile, "Even with him here, it’s unlikely he could change this situation. This is a dead end, and no one can do anything!"
"They just want Qingyun dead now, and even if you’re unwilling, there’s no way out!"
"Master, we should just bide our time. A gentleman can await his revenge for ten years. There will be an opportunity to avenge Young Master Qingyun," Granny consoled.
Lin Zhennan let out a heavy sigh again and said, "Granny, I know, but watching my own grandson die before me, that pain..."
"Master, the situation is decided; we are powerless to change the course. The Qin family still has that daughter, and while the old person is not gone, everyone fears her influence," Granny said with a wry smile.
"Qin Rumeng, Qin Rumeng, indeed, a person whom everyone fears!" Lin Zhennan said with a bitter face, "Qin Po raised two fine daughters!"
With that, a look of envy slowly appeared on Lin Zhennan’s bitter face.
"Master, don’t be too heartbroken. Didn’t Bei Ye send word that he’d be returning soon?" Granny spoke again, "When Bei Ye comes back, we can completely find another way to avenge Young Master Qingyun."
As soon as Granny mentioned Bei Ye again, a sharp light immediately flashed in Lin Zhennan’s seemingly clouded eyes.
"Let me, a grey-haired person, send off a dark-haired one; I can’t let him live too peacefully for too long!" Lin Zhennan’s voice gradually took on an ominous tone.
"Master, shall I make some arrangements in advance...?"
Lin Zhennan waved his hand and said, "We’ll talk about it when he gets back!"
