Chapter 947: Chapter 455: The Value of Lin Baici!
"Brother Lin, Sejong Zheng’s big shot is so easy to talk to? He actually let you come back safe and sound?"
Li Yintong could tell from Lin Baici’s demeanor that he didn’t suffer any losses, and might have even gained something.
"My sister must have gone!"
Xia Hongyao stated with certainty.
"Those big shots aren’t easy to talk to, but Xia Hongmian made them shut their mouths forever!"
Lin Baici shrugged his shoulders. He hadn’t seen the demise of those six magistrates, but he guessed they couldn’t have survived.
Xia Hongmian seemed like the kind of person who would eliminate the roots when cutting the grass.
"What?"
Tai Mei was shocked, "Is she that fierce?"
On the last day, Lin Baici didn’t feel like going out, so everyone just stayed in the villa playing cards and chatting, which was quite nice.
In the evening, just after dinner, Kim Myungjin received a phone call, and then he looked at Lin Baici hesitantly.
"What’s up?"
Hua Yue Yu sensed trouble.
"My grandfather has prepared a family dinner for tomorrow night, and he would like to invite you!"
Kim Myungjin’s brows knit together. Over the phone, her grandfather insisted that Lin Baici be invited, but she didn’t want to force him.
"Isn’t your grandfather seriously ill and not seeing any visitors?"
Hua Yue Yu remembered Kim Myungjin’s mom had gone missing, and when she went to find Jin Mo, she was turned away.
"It’s clear, Bai Ci already purified the curse on Jin Mo’s body, healed him, but for some reason, for instance, to see how his descendants would react when he was critically ill, he continued to feign illness."
Gu Qingqiu analyzed.
"Those who are building factions and vying for power are definitely in trouble now!"
Xia Hongyao felt Jin Mo was an old fox.
"Preparing a family dinner takes at least three or four days, but Jin Mo’s sudden urgency clearly indicates he knows about what happened today at Sejong Zheng!"
"He wants to strengthen the relationship with Bai Ci before he leaves!"
Gu Qingqiu looked at Lin Baici with a smile, "Go, Jin Mo definitely has a generous gift prepared!"
Lin Baici frowned, "So you mean, if I go, it could elevate Myungjin’s status in the family?"
"Definitely!"
Gu Qingqiu shuffled the cards, "I can’t speak for the rest, but on the will, the share that belongs to Myungjin would absolutely increase tenfold!"
"Then I’ll go!"
Lin Baici couldn’t give the Goryeo girl much, but giving her some support wasn’t bad.
"Thank you, Oppa!"
Kim Myungjin was immensely grateful.
Lin Baici smiled and took out his phone, calling Xia Hongmian.
The call was quickly answered.
"Chief, I have something urgent tomorrow, I can’t leave with you guys!"
"When do you plan to return to the country?"
Xia Hongmian inquired.
"The day after tomorrow, at the latest the day after that!"
There wasn’t much to see in Goryeo anyway.
"Then the day after tomorrow morning, at Hancheng Airport, I’ll wait for you!"
Xia Hongmian didn’t ask Lin Baici about the matter and set a time to return home.
This place was, after all, foreign territory, and if a Dragon Level Magnate decided to target Lin Baici, he would have nowhere to run.
"Thank you, Chief!"
Lin Baici didn’t pretentiously say it was not necessary, as he could feel Xia Hongmian’s regard for him.
...
The next day at three in the afternoon, Lin Baici, bearing gifts, arrived at Jin Mo’s estate in the suburbs in Kim Myungjin’s car.
On his previous visit, the security had all been Kim Myungjin’s uncle’s men, causing Kim Myungjin to wait for a while and call before entering, but this time, the security had been changed, and upon seeing Kim Myungjin and Lin Baici, they let them through directly.
After parking the car, Kim Myungjin led Lin Baici to meet Jin Mo, but as soon as they walked into the hall, they heard that annoying voice of Kim Dongcheng.
"Kim Myungjin, what are you doing? Today’s a family dinner; other than family, it’s just the company presidents and their madams. What’s the meaning of bringing an outsider here?"
In the hall, there were about a dozen people, all men in suits and the women in evening gowns, all looking luxurious and exuding high society.
"Grandfather invited him!"
Kim Myungjin explained.
"’Invited’?"
Kim Dongcheng glared at Lin Baici, "A toad lusting after swan meat, he’s worthy?"
"Kim Dongcheng!"
Kim Myungjin bellowed, clenching her fist, "Apologize to Oppa right now!"
You can insult me, but insulting Oppa crosses the line, even if it means giving up my inheritance from the Kim family, I would make Kim Dongcheng understand today that there are some things you just can’t say.
"Asiba, Kim Myungjin, you dare speak to me this way for a foreigner, oh, a person from the Nine States?"
Kim Dongcheng yelled back.
He was originally in charge of this estate, but then his grandfather regained consciousness for a while about ten days ago and drove him out, so his father Kim Yingxian gave him a good beating.
Not being by Jin Mo’s side, who knew what would become of the will?
"Sister Myungjin, please apologize!"
"Bringing an outsider is indeed improper!"
"I didn’t expect Kim Myungjin would like to keep a little wolf dog too!"
"With such good looks and body, if I were you, I’d keep him too!"
The surrounding relatives murmured among themselves.
Some relationships with Kim Myungjin were good, making a case for her, while others sided with Kim Dongcheng, and some just enjoyed the commotion, hoping the two would start a big fight.
"Get out!"
Kim Dongcheng reached out to push Lin Baici, "You don’t belong here!"
Smack!
Kim Myungjin grabbed Kim Dongcheng’s wrist.
Seeing Kim Myungjin defending Lin Baici so fiercely, Kim Dongcheng got angry and backhanded her across the face.
Smack!
Kim Dongcheng didn’t treat Kim Myungjin as a sister at all and hit her with great force.
Now the Goryeo girl, having received Divine Grace as a God Hunter and her body being enhanced, was actually able to dodge. But the habit of being bullied by Kim Dongcheng since she was young made her instinctively give up on dodging.
