This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Early the next morning.

Following Lin Yi’s advice, Zhang Jinquan bought a ticket for the flight to the Beautiful Country tomorrow night.

As for whether Adjo will contact him during this period, that really depends on God.

Lin Yi’s work is relatively light.

Because the tasks that need to be done are already completed, what’s left is to wait for the opportunity to arise.

Ring ring ring—

That afternoon, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Qin Yingyue.

"Son, have you come to the Middle East?"

"Yeah, there’s a bit of a mission here."

"I want to come see you. Is your time convenient?"

"Of course it’s convenient. It’s only natural, don’t make it seem so formal."

"The main issue is you’re on a mission, afraid it might cause delays."

"But I’m really not very convenient to appear in public. I’ll give you an address, just come find me."

"Okay."

Lin Yi hung up and then sent Qin Yingyue the hotel address.

Qiu Yuluo looked at him, "Someone coming to see you?"

"My mom has been living here for a while now. She found out I came over and wants to see me."

"I’ll go out for a walk, let me know when aunt has left."

"Sure."

After packing a little, Qiu Yuluo left.

Lin Yi waited in the room for about an hour or so, then ordered some food, and finally Qin Yingyue arrived.

Qin Yingyue was wearing cropped pants and flat black shoes, dressed looking youthful and sporty.

She was carrying several bags.

"I stopped by the mall on the way here and bought you a few clothes. Change into them sometimes, don’t always wear the same set."

"Got it."

"You look in good shape, is this mission urgent?"

"There was a mole in the brigade, they’ve been caught, but there are still some follow-up matters to attend to."

"As long as it doesn’t delay your affairs."

Lin Yi smiled and nodded, inviting Qin Yingyue to the table.

"Let’s eat together, just right, I haven’t eaten yet."

"Okay."

Qin Yingyue didn’t seem too hungry, she ate very little.

Most of the time she watched Lin Yi eat.

"Cheng Cheng’s matter, you’ve heard about it, right?"

"I know, your mother-in-law talks to me about this often, but the specifics are unknown, your dad didn’t tell me. I just let it be."

"He even kept it from you."

"Actually, there are many things I don’t know about him. You know how it is in this line of work, the more you know, the more dangerous it gets."

"That’s true, but the person who caught Cheng Cheng should be quite a peculiar person."

Lin Yi recalled the situation then and said:

"In my dad’s eyes, he doesn’t seem like just a villain, because he didn’t kill me and didn’t harm Cheng Cheng either, even complimented a bit, it’s hard to simply label him as an enemy."

Saying this, Lin Yi looked up at Qin Yingyue.

"Mom, do you think this person might be someone I know?"

"Someone you know?"

Qin Yingyue contemplated and analyzed.

"Probably not. In this circle, your acquaintances are limited, and few can defeat you, so it seems unlikely."

Qin Yingyue thought for a few seconds.

"Following your line of reasoning, it might be someone both your dad and I know."

"That makes it even harder to guess."

Qin Yingyue spread her hands.

"Your dad knows quite a few people overseas, many are both friends and foes, and quite a few are rather erratic, it’s hard to predict what they might do. But to beat you like that, clearly not an average person."

"Definitely not average, kicked and broke three of my ribs, Song Jinmin might not even have this ability."

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said:

"He might be at the same level as my dad and Moon."

"For now, don’t think about it. If your dad doesn’t want to talk, no one will get it out of him."

"I’m just worried this matter might involve the Elder, that wouldn’t be good."

"I understand your concern, the Elder has been gracious to the Lin family, that must always be remembered."

"That’s why I’m concerned about this matter."

As he spoke, Lin Yi took out a watch.

"Mom, look at this watch."

"This is quite an old item, even back in our time it was already considered valuable."

Qin Yingyue laughed and said:

"I remember back when I met your dad, he gave me a watch just like this, I was quite happy back then. Later found out he snatched it from someone else, nearly pissed me off."

Lin Yi laughed heartily.

Indeed, it’s just the thing he would do.

"Where did you get this watch?"

"Found it on the suspect."

Lin Yi looked at Qin Yingyue.

"Do you know who the original owner of this watch is?"

Qin Yingyue also looked at her son, sensing there was more to his words.

"Who?"

"Lu Chunxiao."

"What! Chunxiao’s!"

Qin Yingyue stared wide-eyed, mouth agape.

She was speechless for a long while.

"How is this possible!"

Hearing the name Lu Chunxiao.

Qin Yingyue’s breathing became rapid.

It took a long while for her to calm down.

But a teardrop fell from the corner of her eye.

"If Chunxiao hadn’t had an accident back then, no woman in Yan Country could compare to her now, not even your mother-in-law."

"I’ve heard my mother-in-law mention some things about her, the evaluation is indeed very high."

"No one would think she wasn’t deserving, whether man or woman. Everyone would give a thumbs up upon seeing her."

Qin Yingyue sighed:

"God has truly favored the Lu family, with three outstanding members, each brilliant. But maybe it’s genius being envied by the heavens, Chunxiao and Xingyue both had accidents, leaving only Lu Xingchuan. Otherwise, Elder Lu could have retired now."

"Actually, it might have ended differently, even if they were alive, the Elder might not have retired peacefully. It could be a way of preserving what remains." Lin Yi said.

"Your analysis makes sense too. Perhaps without them, the Lu family wouldn’t exist now." Qin Yingyue said:

"Where did this watch come from? If it’s not much use, leave it with me for sentimental value."

"That’s really not possible, I have to return it." Lin Yi chuckled bitterly.

"No problem, just seeing it is enough."

Holding the watch, Qin Yingyue examined it repeatedly.

"Years have passed just like that. The Jing City back then was far more interesting than now."

"That’s why I’m curious, after all, you were quite the lady from a prominent family back then. What did you see in him?"

"Precisely because I was a lady from a prominent family that I saw something in him. I hadn’t seen the world, your dad had charisma, we quietly became close without considering real-life issues."

Qin Yingyue said:

"After we got together, your dad’s food, drink, and other daily needs were my responsibility. Luckily, Elder Lu supported him and gradually helped him develop his career, which at least resulted in some income."

Qin Yingyue reminisced about those times.

"It took over two years of knowing each other before I could spend your dad’s money."

"What if there wasn’t enough?"

"He would go out and rob."

"Isn’t this just pure hooliganism, didn’t family step in?"

"Your grandfather? I never even met the man."
