Chapter 425: Chapter 425 Don’t Make Excessive Demands

Qiao Rui smiled. "So this seven hundred million, Elder Lin doesn’t know about it, right?"

Lin Shiyue nodded, his expression quite awkward. "To be honest, the elder doesn’t allow repayment, but I’ve found a way to pay this seven hundred million first."

"I see Mr. Lin’s sincerity, but can I know where this seven hundred million comes from?" Qiao Rui retorted.

"It’s all my personal assets," Lin Shiyue said.

"Then I don’t want it," Qiao Rui directly rejected.

Lin Shiyue was taken aback. "Why doesn’t President Qiao want it?"

"Does Mrs. Lin know about this decision of Mr. Lin?" Qiao Rui smiled and asked.

Lin Shiyue naturally hadn’t told his wife.

His expression was awkward.

Qiao Rui immediately understood that he hadn’t gotten his wife’s consent.

"Since it’s your personal assets, it’s your joint marital property. If you use them to repay the debt, in future lawsuits, when your wife sues, you’ll have to return half of it. And I, Qiao Rui, will be labeled as coercing you, Lin Shiyue, into selling your assets!"

"Didn’t President Qiao just say, to wear the crown one must bear its weight, it’s okay as long as you have a clear conscience," Lin Shiyue said.

"Using my words against me, eh?" Qiao Rui laughed and said, "This matter is definitely against the conscience. You, Mr. Lin, are sincere about repaying the debt, but haven’t touched the money in the Lin Family’s accounts and instead are using personal assets.

Honestly, these debts actually have little to do with you. If these assets belonged to Lin Qingshi or Lin Tiancheng, then I’d have a clear conscience. But yours, sorry, I can’t accept."

"Then President Qiao, could you give me some advice? How can I pay this seven hundred million first when the company’s assets are completely frozen?"

"Go to the Huo Family, maybe there’s a way!"

Lin Shiyue immediately understood Qiao Rui’s intention, which was to secure the funds from cooperation with the Huo Family, not returning them to the Lin Family’s accounts but directly transferring it to Qiao Family.

"I understand President Qiao’s intention," Lin Shiyue said. "But such a huge amount of fund transfer....."

"The finance department will naturally find a way to solve specific details," Qiao Rui spoke again. "But today, Mr. Lin came to see me, and I’m afraid the word has already reached your family’s elder. When you go back, how will you face your elder?"

Lin Shiyue forced a smile. "President Qiao thinks everything through. I won’t let my father know about this."

"Mr. Lin, you’re not yet the president of the Lin Family, just the acting president, given the task in a crisis," Qiao Rui reminded, "I’ll be frank, about what your brother has done, it’s hard to recover from that in the coming years, and as for your family’s elder, I’m sure you know what Mr. Lin has done."

Lin Shiyue’s face changed. "He didn’t study much, acts rashly, but he’s old, please be generous, President Qiao."

"Mr. Lin, your father already wants me dead." Qiao Rui looked at Lin Shiyue steadily. "Been hiring people to kill me, right?"

Lin Shiyue looked at Qiao Rui in shock and awe.

Such a secret thing has also been discovered, what else can’t be discovered?

Lin Shiyue stared at her, agape.

Qiao Rui smiled faintly, "People die for wealth, birds die for food. Your father doesn’t pay back debts, even abandons his daughter. Instead of asking me to be generous, why not advise yourself to accept it frankly."

Lin Shiyue felt his worldview was shaken.

His inner world was chaotic, not knowing how to speak.

Seeing him like this, Qiao Rui still wore a faint smile, her gaze calm yet deep.

"Mr. Lin, it’s not that the old people become bad, but the bad people become old. The people your family’s elder has oppressed, bullied, and insulted, what do you think they feel?" Qiao Rui asked again.

"President Qiao, I understand your point." Lin Shiyue forced a smile. "But no matter what, he’s still my father, and I never dare to go against him in my heart."

"I understand Mr. Lin’s concerns, so I won’t pressure you," Qiao Rui smiled gently, "But please don’t make unreasonable requests to me, can you?"

Lin Shiyue felt a bit embarrassed under Qiao Rui’s calm gaze, as if he was a class below.

He forced a smile and nodded. "President Qiao is not unreasonable, it’s us Lin Family being unreasonable."

Mr. Lin, you’ve said so much, but what’s your final choice? Have you really thought it through?

Lin Shiyue shook his head. "To be honest, I’m currently in such chaos that I don’t know what to say."

"Mhm," Qiao Rui smiled, "It’s okay, take your time to think when you go back."

Just then, the tea had arrived.

Li Chongming personally brought it.

Lin Shiyue came back to his senses and said, "President Qiao, I won’t have the tea, I’ll head back first."

"Mr. Lin, have a taste at least. The Biluochun here might leave a lasting impression on you."

Lin Shiyue looked at Qiao Rui, she was watching him with a faint smile.

Lin Shiyue picked up the tea, didn’t refuse, and drank it.

Just a sip, and he tasted the fragrance of the tea leaves.

The slender, curly Biluochun leaves gently floated down in the tea water.

"Good tea!" Lin Shiyue praised, "I understand President Qiao’s meaning. First find a way to transfer the seven hundred million to Qiao Family’s account. As for the rest, I’ll figure out something."

"Good," Qiao Rui smiled, "Please, Mr. Lin!"

"Goodbye." Lin Shiyue also stood up, nodded slightly to Qiao Rui, and then turned and left.

Downstairs, the journalists were in an uproar.

They were very surprised by Lin Shiyue’s sudden visit to Qiao Family, speculating about Lin Shiyue’s intent, whether it was the intent of the Lin Family.

People wondered if they were showing goodwill.

In short, upon seeing the second son of the Lin Family visiting, journalists immediately guessed various possibilities.

Naturally, the news quickly came out.

And when the elder of the Lin Family saw the news, that Lin Shiyue went to Qiao Family, he immediately flew into a rage and summoned him.

Lin Shiyue left Qiao Family and went to Huo Family.

Had a private discussion with Huo Sinan about the funds, and Huo Sinan was naturally willing to cooperate, and would have the finance department cooperate as well.

But before the conversation was finished, his father’s call came urging him to come back quickly.

Lin Shiyue knew what awaited him would be a storm.

Arriving at the Lin Family gate, he took a deep breath, waiting for himself to calm down.

And at this time, Lin Ci also arrived.

Seeing his daughter getting out of the car, Lin Shiyue was startled and asked, "Lin Ci, why did you come here?"

"Dad, Lin Tinglei is suspected of illegally detaining a girl, he was arrested by the police, and is under criminal investigation."

"What?" Lin Shiyue was stunned. "Your cousin has illegally detained a girl?"

"Yes," Lin Ci nodded, indignantly. "The girl is only in her teens, Lin Tinglei is worse than a beast."

"Do the reporters know about this?" Lin Shiyue felt if the media learns about this, it would certainly cause a new uproar.

At that time, the Lin Family will surely face more public condemnation.

The housekeeper urged, "Second Master, Miss Ci, the elder is waiting for you, please come in quickly."
