Chapter 1084: Chapter 729: Do You Know What I Fear the Most? (First Update)

Next moment, Mu Lin revealed a carefree smile, her face’s smile instantly transformed, stunningly beautiful and delicate, "Family Head Tang, when exactly will you—pay the rent?"

She was waiting to collect the money, tsk tsk tsk... After so many years, it should at least be thirty million by now, right? Hmm... that could be pocket money for the kids later on.

Oh right, recently the three babies seemed to have said they wanted to fundraise for children in certain places; why not use it for that then?

Moreover, this was, after all, unexpected—found money!

"Pay the rent?" Sharp eyes dangerously narrowing, Tang Miao looked at Mu Lin and for a moment didn’t react, while on the side, Mi Zheng suddenly lifted the corners of his mouth upon hearing Mu Lin’s words.

It seemed she really did know everything about this place, the people behind him, and the truth about this island; it was just uncertain if she knew...

Thinking of that answer, a flash of light passed through Mi Zheng’s eyes; if he could choose, he really didn’t want her to know all his secrets because that would make him seem very... foolish.

Heh, indeed very foolish.

Mu Lin carefreely smiled once more, a look of surprise on her face, "Hey! I thought Family Head Tang you should have known! To think you don’t, that really is... too troublesome."

Tang Miao coldly stared at Mu Lin, "Know what?" Mu Lin’s vibe had always been strange to him, as if she could laugh and chat while committing the most gruesome acts during their family’s time.

"Know..." the curve of her lips deepening, Mu Lin’s eyes slightly closed, a light laugh escaping her, "Know who all the people are on this island." When she looked at Tang Miao again, the chill in Mu Lin’s eyes had vanished, leaving only playfulness, "Family Head Tang, do you happen to know?" Don’t tell her you don’t know!

"You actually know!" Tang Miao looked at Mu Lin incredulously, and the next moment, his expression quickly returned to calm, "That’s right, if you could find this place, you would naturally know who owns this island." He would not overlook the interests backing Mu Lin now.

He snorted coldly, feeling irritated in his heart.

Maintaining her easy smile, "Since that’s the case, I believe Divine Doctor Mu, you also know your own identity." As if something occurred to him, Tang Miao’s gaze deepened when he looked at Mu Lin.

"Identity! What identity?" Mu Lin looked at him innocently, "My identity is the wife of our family’s lord, Jing Family’s daughter-in-law, and the young master of the Gong Family. What other identity could I have?"

"Gong Family’s young master." Tang Miao chuckled, "Could it be you’ve forgotten that your father is Tang Qishan, and that your blood carries the blood of our Tang Family. You can’t change this," his expression smug.

"Mu Lin, what if you abandon darkness for light? As long as you return to the Tang Family, I can assure you that in the Future you will not only be the Family Head of the Gong Family, but you could even become the ruler of all of China!" He was now blatantly revealing his claws in front of Mu Lin.

"Are you trying to tempt me?" Mu Lin quirked her lip, "It is indeed very tempting." Too bad, "You still don’t understand me well enough." To understand her as a person...

"What do you mean?" Tang Miao asked subconsciously.

Mu Lin looked at him, "Do you know what I fear the most?" Ignoring his expression, Mu Lin just kept speaking, "My greatest fear, is trouble!" She looked at Tang Miao as if he were a fool, "You want to throw such a huge problem my way, do you think I would accept it?"

She wasn’t stupid!

That disdainful look on her face made Jing Chen smile, while Mi Zheng’s gaze on Mu Lin become even more complicated.

As for Tang Miao, at this moment, his face turned green, nearly unable to contain himself, "Eat a forfeit for not respecting the toast!" He really couldn’t bring himself to like this woman, just like his pedantic and unbearable son!

Mu Lin indicated that she didn’t particularly enjoy drinking either, but then her smile surfaced again, "Family Head Tang, although you’re here to change the subject, I still can’t help but remind you that our current discussion is about the rent issue."

"Rent, you must be joking with me!" His eyes darkened even more as he said this, his fists clenched, veins bulging.

"I may love to joke around, but generally I don’t joke with people I don’t like," Mu Lin’s smile faded, "Or does Family Head Tang need a good reminder from me that the land you’re standing on belongs to my father, and since my father is no longer here, shouldn’t I, as his only named heir, inherit the rights to this land?" Her voice had turned cold and firm.
