Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Slapped in the Face Again
"Alright, I’m coming." Lin Shiyue nodded.
The butler then turned to leave.
Lin Shiyue looked at his daughter with great concern and whispered, "How did you find out about this?"
"Dad, don’t worry about how I found out. It’ll be all over the internet soon enough." Lin Ci was now calm and advised her father, "When you see Grandpa later, you need to be more assertive. Stop being so hesitant."
Lin Shiyue smiled bitterly. So, in his daughter’s eyes, he was seen as timid.
This made Lin Shiyue feel ashamed.
A father never wants to be seen this way by his children.
"Let’s go." He nodded. "Let’s go inside first."
Once inside, before they could speak, Lin Qingshi threw a book straight at Lin Shiyue’s head.
Lin Ci, quick on her feet, intercepted the flying book and caught it firmly in her hand.
Lin Shiyue was also startled and then looked at his daughter in disbelief.
She actually managed to catch the swiftly flying book.
"Grandpa, you’re really angry." Lin Ci said in a deep voice, "My dad is over fifty now, and he’s been working hard for the Lin Family all these years. Even if there’s no merit, there’s certainly hard work. Grandpa, your moves are heavy."
Elder Lin, seeing that Lin Ci was also there and now reprimanding him, suddenly flew into a rage, "Who do you think you are, daring to lecture me?"
"In Grandpa’s eyes, I’m nobody." Lin Ci wasn’t polite either, her sharp gaze fixed on the old man as she put the book aside, "But all the prominent figures in your Lin Family have gone in, Lin Tinglei illegally detained young girls, suspected of rape, and insulting minors. He is now under investigation."
This was absolutely explosive news, leaving Elder Lin stunned, looking at the righteously indignant Lin Ci in disbelief.
"What did you say?"
"You didn’t hear wrong." Lin Ci said sternly, "Lin Tinglei has been taken away by the police."
The anger Elder Lin was about to vent was suddenly halted.
He looked at Lin Ci in disbelief, then at Lin Shiyue. "Second son, did you know about this news too?"
"I just found out from Lin Ci." Lin Shiyue said, "I don’t know the specific details yet."
"Why don’t you know what’s going on?" Lin Qingshi scolded, "If you don’t know, your daughter knows."
"Why should my dad know about this matter?" Lin Ci said in a deep voice, "Didn’t Grandpa also not know about the news?"
Lin Qingshi was taken aback, his face turning even more difficult to look at.
Lin Shiyue didn’t say anything, but for the first time, he felt his daughter’s prowess.
Even at this moment, she remained so calm; his daughter had grown up and was more promising than he was.
Seeing the old man silent, Lin Ci said coldly, "Lin Tinglei repeatedly detained young girls, causing three of them to become pregnant, his actions no different from beasts.
In our modern civilized society, such heinous actions still occur, which is shocking.
Is this the upbringing of the Lin Family? This is simply a disgrace to humanity, and he doesn’t spare minors, is he a beast?"
At the sound of this, Elder Lin picked up a cup from the table and threw it again.
Lin Ci caught the cup once more, not a drop of water spilled out.
Lin Shiyue exclaimed, "Xiao Ci!"
Lin Qingshi was also dumbfounded, finding it hard to believe his eyes.
Lin Ci put the cup down and said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, if you keep throwing things at people, you might injure someone, and such behavior from Grandpa could also be deemed assault."
"You insolent thing, do you intend to lecture me?" Lin Qingshi scolded.
"I won’t lecture Grandpa, but soon enough others will teach you a lesson." Lin Ci said coldly, "Grandpa, you’d better take care of yourself."
With that, she turned to leave.
"Where are you going?" Elder Lin scolded, "Stop her for me."
"Grandpa, if I can come here, I can also leave." Lin Ci said sternly, "Grandpa had better not humiliate yourself; your men mean nothing to me."
Lin Qingshi was infuriated.
He was enraged outside by that girl from the Qiao Family, and now his granddaughter left him fuming.
How could Lin Qingshi not go mad?
With trembling hands, he pointed at Lin Ci and asked Lin Shiyue, "Is this the good daughter you’ve raised?"
Lin Ci was also not polite, answering back, "I may not be excellent, but I am straightforward and upright, conducting myself boldly and openly. Naturally, I am a good daughter to my dad."
Lin Shiyue didn’t say anything, also tacitly agreeing to this notion.
Lin Qingshi shouted loudly, "Lin Shiyue, is this how you treat your father?"
"Dad!" Lin Shiyue said sternly, "Although Lin Ci’s attitude isn’t the best, her words do hold some truth. It’s a turbulent time for the Lin Family, we shouldn’t sweat the small things."
"Small things?" Lin Qingshi cursed angrily, "This is a small thing to you?"
Lin Shiyue nodded. "I think compared to what Lin Tinglei has done, my daughter is still quite outstanding."
Elder Lin roared, "This is rebellion, the sky has turned!"
Lin Ci said, "Grandpa, you need to wake up. The possibility of my uncle and Lin Tinglei getting out is very low. Lin Tinglei causing pregnancies among minors is not a mere single incident, its nature is vile, and he has a high chance of getting a death sentence."
Lin Qingshi was stunned, his face turning pale, "No, this can’t happen!"
Lin Tinglei is the eldest son and grandson of the Lin Family. If he’s gone, what should they do?
Lin Shiyue was also taken aback for a moment, looking at Lin Ci, "Who did you hear this from, Lin Ci?"
"Does it even need to be said? Just look up the legal statutes, and you’ll know. His actions are vile!"
"This is done by Qiao Rui, right?" Lin Qingshi cursed, "It’s definitely that damned girl causing trouble."
"What does this have to do with Qiao Rui? Qiao Rui is a girl; she certainly wouldn’t cause a woman to become pregnant." Lin Ci held Lin Qingshi’s actions in disdain, thinking that instead of examining his own reasons first when encountering issues, he went looking for trouble with others. It was truly incomprehensible.
"You’re an ungrateful wretch, can’t you wish our family well?" Lin Qingshi cursed angrily.
Lin Ci coldly laughed, "Then you should start doing something worthy of praise."
After saying this, Lin Ci gave her father a glance, offering encouragement. "Dad, the Lin Family, the Lin Company, is a place of much right and wrong. If you always act against your conscience, you might as well not take on this mess."
Lin Shiyue looked at his daughter and said, "Lin Ci, you should head back; I’ll have a talk with your grandfather."
Lin Ci walked out without hesitation.
Perhaps she was too disappointed with this family.
As soon as Lin Ci left, Elder Lin started scolding, "How dare you go to Qiao Family to meet Qiao Rui today, what do you mean by that?"
"Dad, your plan to hire a killer has been discovered by Qiao Rui." Lin Shiyue hit the nail on the head. "Call it off while you still can."
"Call it off?" Elder Lin roared in anger, "I’m not willing, why should I call it off?"
"Dad, if you don’t call it off soon, it’ll really be too late." Lin Shiyue said, "Didn’t you see that brother Tinglei has already gone in?"
"This news might not be accurate!" Lin Qingshi snorted.
At this time, the butler entered the room in a panic, reporting, "Master, young master Tinglei has been taken away, apparently suspected of multiple crimes."
