Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Intent to Kill

Elder Qiao was slightly taken aback, hearing the murderous intent in Lin Qingshi’s words, but he also knew this old guy was driven to desperation, which is why he was contemplating taking such a reckless risk.

He looked at Lin Qingshi and said, "What, thinking about eliminating witnesses?"

Lin Qingshi half-squinted his eyes, looking at Elder Qiao, "I do not accept threats. Anyone who wants to take down our Lin Family, I will not let them off. Brother Qiao, let’s see how capable your granddaughter is."

Elder Qiao’s pupils contracted a few times, just as he was about to speak, Elder Pei interrupted him.

"Lin Qingshi," Elder Pei said in a deep voice, "you are not a match for Qiao Rui; a piece of advice from me is to remember that the one playing your Lin Family to death is yourself."

Lin Qingshi was stunned, and then sneered, "Brother Pei, you take your granddaughter-in-law too seriously."

"My granddaughter-in-law is indeed extraordinary, otherwise you wouldn’t be in such a hurry to come to the Qiao Family and make threats," Elder Pei chuckled.

Lin Qingshi’s heart skipped a beat, and he snorted. "Fine, since you all have chosen to tear the facade, don’t blame us."

Having said that, he stood up, flicked his sleeves, and left.

It wasn’t until his figure disappeared that Elder Qiao spoke worriedly, "This old fellow is really like a mad dog, driven to desperation."

"What must come will come." Elder Pei said solemnly, "You haven’t touched upon their fundamental interests yet, how else could you force him to hand over the money? It’s just about money now, and he’s willing to forsake his daughter, quite ruthless."

"That’s why I’m worried about Qiao Rui," Elder Qiao frowned. "I fear she might not be able to resist."

"She can." Elder Pei said firmly. "Your granddaughter can handle more than a dozen people."

"It’s easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow," Elder Qiao said.

"Don’t worry, she’s made arrangements," Elder Pei seemed very confident.

Elder Qiao, however, looked worried, picked up the phone, and called Qiao Rui.

"Lin Qingshi is driven to desperation and might take a reckless risk, be careful, I’m worried he might harm you."

"Okay, I got it," Qiao Rui responded calmly.

Elder Qiao was very concerned about her attitude. "Don’t take it lightly, what if something unexpected happens?"

"Then it depends on who has the better luck," Qiao Rui laughed and said, "Grandfather, are you worried about me?"

"Isn’t it normal for me to worry about you?" Elder Qiao said snappishly.

At such a time, this silly girl was still bringing up the past. He really didn’t know if she was confident and bold, or too careless.

"Well, that’s really unexpected." Qiao Rui chuckled, "It’s not easy to get grandfather’s concern."

"Stop joking, quickly think of a way to deal with this. Do you need me to send you some bodyguards?" Elder Qiao asked.

"No need, your bodyguards aren’t that great, don’t make it more complicated for me."

Elder Qiao frowned but still said, "If you have arrangements, I can be at ease. If not, I can only make arrangements for you."

"Don’t worry, grandfather, I have my own arrangements," Qiao Rui laughed and said, "You just take care of yourself, I’m waiting for the day you regret it."

Elder Qiao was stunned, roughly understanding what Qiao Rui meant.

She wanted to prove that his decision back then was wrong, for her mother.

Elder Qiao said, "Alright, if that day comes, I will admit it."

Qiao Rui was also stunned, not expecting the old man to say it so directly, it was indeed a pleasant surprise.

Elder Qiao had actually already regretted it, but everything was long over.

Life is like a slip of a foot causing eternal regret, and turning back is another lifetime.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Rui glanced at Pei Liyan beside her.

"Lin Qingshi has murderous intent."

"How do you plan to deal with it?" Pei Liyan asked seriously.

Qiao Rui burst into laughter seeing his serious look. "Don’t be so tense, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it."

Pei Liyan was also helpless. "I really don’t know if you’re this relaxed because you’re well-prepared or too underestimating."

Qiao Rui said, "Of course, I’m well-prepared, but I have always been lucky, King Yan is not ready to take me."

Pei Liyan was still very worried, deciding to expedite the action against the Lin Family tonight and deliver a heavy blow to them.

Back to the Qiao Family.

Qiao Rui saw people arranged by the Lin Family lurking stealthily outside the building.

Qiao Rui glanced over, took out her phone, and called Huang Ying. "Get rid of those Lin Family people at the Qiao Building entrance and send them over to the Lin Building."

"Yes," Huang Ying received the order and immediately arranged for people to go over.

At this moment, when the Lin Family people saw Qiao Rui returning to the Qiao Family, they immediately called the Lin Family’s elder to report, but before saying a word, they were seized.

Huang Ying arranged for two experts to knock them out and take them away.

Ten minutes later, these two lookouts were dumped below the Lin Building.

Lin Qingshi received the news and had a sudden realization of alarm.

At this time, Lin Tiancheng was very discontented, deciding to go all out and deal with Qiao Rui first.

Thus, he arranged for people to find desperadoes, trying to spend money to deal with Qiao Rui.

Of course, he was searching online, trying to hire a killer.

Huang Ying called Qiao Rui. "Young Master, Lin Tiancheng is browsing the web, likely looking to hire a killer."

"The person he wants to kill is me," Qiao Rui laughed and said, "Keep an eye on Lin Tiancheng, whoever he buys off, turn them around."

"Yes!" Huang Ying said, "I understand, also, the additional personnel you arranged to be sent to Qingcheng have already been arranged and will arrive tonight."

"Good, everyone to their posts." Qiao Rui said, "Announce something at five in the afternoon, report the Lin Family’s matter tonight. If the Lin Family does not act, then release Lin Tiancheng’s old affairs at seven in the evening."

"Understood."

After hanging up, Qiao Rui leaned back in her chair.

Gai Yin came in, worriedly speaking, "President Qiao, it seems the situation has become complicated, let me protect you tonight."

"No need," Qiao Rui said, "None of you can match Pei Liyan, being with him is safer."

Gai Yin was still worried. "But what if the Lin Family makes a move tonight?"

"Expose their scandals online before they act, causing a huge sensation, the media will keep a close watch on them," Qiao Rui said, "Rest assured, I know what I’m doing, you should go see Little Xingxing tonight, keep the promises you make to children."

Gai Yin froze, then immediately said, "Oh right, Huo Sinan called me today saying he has put pressure on the Lin Family. If the Lin Family doesn’t pay the Qiao Family, the Huo Family won’t settle accounts with them either."

Qiao Rui laughed, teasingly said, "Did Huo Sinan personally call you?"

Gai Yin’s face inexplicably turned red, "President Qiao, don’t tease me, I don’t know how it happened, he just came to me, maybe because he knew you were busy."

"He is quite special to you," Qiao Rui laughed and said, "Although I don’t know what happened in the past, I still hope you can follow your true heart and not deliberately avoid it."

Gai Yin nodded. "I understand."

At five in the afternoon, the announcement was made, immediately causing a huge sensation, and everyone online was waiting to hear the big news about the Lin Family.
