Chapter 172: Lu Lin’s Threat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Jin discovered that her usual methods of throwing a tantrum and rolling around were completely useless in front of Lu Lin. This Lu Lin didn’t buy it. He didn’t care about his reputation being ruined, or rather, he simply didn’t care about the people of this place.
At this moment, the little punks that Lu Lin brought had already started to smash the things in Li Jin’s house. Seeing the farm tools that her family usually used being knocked over by the punks, Li Jin’s heart ached. If these things had to be replaced, it would cost money.
Li Jin was used to throwing her weight around in the village. She was considered to be a senior, and many people were younger than her. So when she made a scene, most villagers would simply tolerate it to prevent their reputation from getting affected.
Lu Lin was different, however. He wasn’t from this village, and he didn’t really take Li Jin’s family seriously. This caused him to show unbridled ruthlessness.
Li Jin also noticed that this person was completely different from the neighbors she had dealt with before. If she had to rely on making a scene and rolling around, the other party was not afraid.
Thinking of this, Li Jin quickly came up with an idea. She walked to Lu Lin and said, “This token is very important to my family, so my old man hid it. But my old man has been dead for many years, so even if you ask me for it now, I can’t take it out immediately.
“How about this,” she said in a flattering tone. “Give us some time, and we’ll find the token as soon as possible and return it to you. How about that?”
Lu Lin snorted coldly and looked at Li Jin mockingly. do you think I’ll believe you? Are you deliberately stalling for time because you don’t want to give me the token?”
Lu Lin arrogantly crossed his legs. “I’ll be honest with you. I’ve asked around in your village. If you don’t hand over the token obediently, then don’t think about living a peaceful life in your family in the future. There will be people coming to your house to hara.s.s you every day. Smashing things up will be considered light punishment.
“Oh, by the way, I heard that your two sons are both working now. You’ve separated your third son from them, right? Don’t worry, I’ll find the places where your sons work one by one and make sure they can’t work anymore. When the men in your family can’t work, who will your family rely on to buy food?
“You can think about it carefully. Either you hand over this letter to me obediently, or I’ll make sure your family can’t make a living and can only rely on the food you’ve saved to wait for death.
Lu Lin’s expression was sinister when he said this. It was obvious that he wasn’t joking. Li Jin was even more frightened. She had never met such an unreasonable person.
Lu Lin’s high and mighty att.i.tude made it seem as if she was treating them like ants. At this moment, Li Jin only felt fear. At the same time, a strong desire rose in her heart. If such a person could become her grandson-in-law, then their family would be able to do whatever they wanted in the entire village. They would see who would dare to provoke their family and say things behind their backs.
“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely find the token. I won’t dare to lie to you.’
Li Jin quickly tried to please Lu Lin. She had a terrified look on her face. Seeing this, Lu Lin ordered his men to stop smashing things. Before he left, Lu Lin threatened them a few more times before driving his car away.
In Lu Lin’s eyes, these people were just ordinary villagers without much knowledge. They would naturally listen to him obediently with little threat.
Xia Wan observed everything from the beginning to the end. She guessed that Li Jin would go to the hospital to find her father.
If she could not find her father, Xia Ye might have to bring Li Jin and the others to her stall.
Xia Wan knew very well what the family would do. Now, all she needed to do was to watch them make a fool of themselves.
Lu Lin, who was sitting in the car, asked his men impatiently, “Where’s the girl I asked you to find?”
The subordinate scratched his head and said embarra.s.sedly, “Brother Lu, we’re still looking for her. There’s nothing obvious about her, so it’s going to be difficult for us to find out which family she’s from.”
The underlings were also feeling bitter. Lu Lin only roughly described what the girl looked like, but Lu Lin didn’t even know the girl’s name and asked them to look for her. There were so many people in this town.. Where were they going to find her?
