Chapter 895: Is There Evidence?
“The old man will be back soon. I’ll have a good talk with him. Little Chili, you’re right. Marriage is never about making do. I don’t want you to suffer like this either. Don’t worry, I understand.”
Lin Mu’an laughed after he said that.
“Why are you laughing? Have you gone crazy from being provoked?”
“No, I just feel that my little chili is becoming more mature and steady. I’m not good enough for you.”
“Are you stupid like Qiqi? What’s there to be good enough for? I love you.” Lu Qianqian couldn’t help but blush when she said the last three words.
Lin Mu’an laughed even more when he heard that. “I’ll work harder and be the man that you can rely on.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
After thinking for a while, Lin Mu’an called the old man. “When are you going back to Jianchuan?”
“I’ll be there tonight.”
“Okay, be careful.” Lin Mu’an didn’t say that he would go home tonight because this was a complicated matter. When he saw the old man, he would make his stance clear. Luckily, Vice President Qin had already gotten evidence from the partners.
She called Sheng Xiao directly. “President Sheng, Song Bozhi was the one who prepared those two cufflinks. He arranged the whole show on purpose.”
“Do you have evidence?”
“I have the recording,” Vice President Qin replied. “I’ll send it to you first.”
“Send it to Lu Qianqian and Lin Mu’an directly. They already know about this,” Sheng Xiao instructed her.
“Okay.” Vice President Qin hung up and did as she was told.
After Lu Qianqian listened to it, she asked her a.s.sistant to translate it. Only then did she know what Vice President Qin had been doing when he went abroad. As it turned out, she had gone to get evidence on Sheng Xiao’s orders.
Although this evidence could not completely prove her innocence, at the very least, she had to let Old Master Lin know that the cufflink itself was a set-up.
Lu Qianqian gave a copy of the recording to Lin Mu’an. After listening to it, Lin Mu’an said, “That’s great.”
He had originally planned to go home at night and talk to his grandfather as a man. Now that he had the evidence, it would be perfect.
..
Old Master Lin had already arrived at the airport after leaving Luo Hai. This time, he was afraid that he would run into Song Bozhi or anyone from the Song family.
He didn’t know who to trust.
The seed of doubt had already sprouted in the depths of his heart.
Fortunately, the journey was a peaceful one.
It was nine o’clock in the evening when he returned to Jianchuan. When he entered the house, the butler said to him, “Sir, Young Master is waiting to meet you in the living room.”
“Young Master?”
Old Master Lin took off his coat and entered the living room. When he saw Lin Mu’an sitting on the sofa, he frowned slightly. “Aren’t you supposed to be at the police academy?”
“I took a leave of absence.” Lin Mu’an looked at him.
“I’ve only just said that you’re sensible, and now you don’t follow rules anymore? Do you enter and leave the police academy as you wish?”
“Grandfather… you know why I came back.” Lin Mu’an pressed his palms together and placed them on the bridge of his nose. “Qianqian told me today that she wishes to cancel the engagement.”
“How can such a big event be canceled just like that? Is this child’s play to you?”
“It’s precisely because it’s not child’s play that we have to be cautious. Even if you could hide your suspicion toward her and watch us get engaged, she wouldn’t want our marriage to not receive the true blessings of our elders.”
After hearing this, Old Master Lin frowned and stared at Lin Mu’an. After a long while, he asked, “Do you trust her that much?”
“With my life,” Lin Mu’an said firmly.
“You’re in the police academy, and she’s in a world of women. Why should you trust her?” Old Master Lin questioned again. “Yes, I do suspect that she might have some sort of relations.h.i.+p with other men. After all, she…”
“Grandfather, I should have known that you didn’t truly accept Qianqian from the bottom of your heart. Even if no one else had interfered, you would still make things difficult for her in the future. Forget it, let’s not make things difficult for each other.” Lin Mu’an finally understood what Old Master Lin was thinking.
“At first, Qianqian thought that you were happy to accept her, but now it seems like that step is still far away.
“Since you’re tired, rest well today. I’ll go back to the police academy first.” Lin Mu’an got up from the sofa.
However, Old Master Lin stopped him. “Have you ever stopped to think that the reason I’m so worried is all because of you?”
“I’m just afraid that you’ll be deceived…”
“Ever since I left the Lin family, I, Lin Mu’an, have been alone and have nothing. What can she gain from deceiving me?” Lin Mu’an turned around and asked Old Master Lin. “Grandfather, the human heart is made of flesh and blood. Originally, I came to clarify the matter of the cufflinks with you, but I felt that you don’t respect Qianqian from the bottom of your heart, so I didn’t do anything unnecessary.”
“Take care of yourself.” After saying that, Lin Mu’an walked forward without any intention of turning back.
The old man sat on the sofa in discomfort. When had he become so domineering?
However, he only had one grandson, Lin Mu’an..
Forget it, if one day this brat was really deceived, it would be his own fault.
..
After Lin Mu’an left the Lin family’s home, he immediately returned to the police academy. However, halfway through, he gave Lu Qianqian a call. “Everything is settled.”
“You’re not mad at your grandfather, are you?”
“Silly Chili, he doesn’t believe you, yet you’re still worried about him.”
“He only has you as his grandson. Outsiders are trying to cause him confusion and doubt with their bag of tricks. Isn’t it normal for him to be worried?” Lu Qianqian said, being all understanding. “Think about it. If your daughter is deceived in the future, what will you do?”
“Break that man’s legs!”
“Lin Mu’an, give us more time. Also, that Song guy made me suffer such injustice. I just feel like I want to smash his head.”
After Lin Mu’an heard this, he had an idea. That Song guy had set him up in the dark, but now, they were all on guard. If that sc.u.mbag wanted to create more news, he could definitely lend him a hand.
Was the Lin family so easy to bully?
..
To everyone’s surprise, Old Master Lin called Mama Lu that night. “The engagement ceremony will be held as planned.”
Mama Lu was very confused. What was on this old man’s mind?
However, he only said, “You believe in your daughter. I believe in my grandson.”
Now that the matter had been resolved, there was nothing to worry about. Mama Lu asked Lu Qianqian, “What do you think?”
Lu Qianqian felt that this Old Master Lin wanted to test them. Perhaps, he also wanted to get rid of this inner demon…
