Chapter 566: Chapter 382: That Place (Second Update)_2

This also sparked greater curiosity in him toward the girl who had just passed by him.

Who is she?

Her eyes were clear and she had an upright character.

That was Mu Lin’s first impression of Tang Jun; he saw nothing else in his eyes other than the initial surprise and curiosity.

As expected.

Even when Black Star had spoken such words about the Tang Family, Mu Lin still could not completely dismiss them.

Forget it, stop thinking about it. The truth will naturally unravel itself one day. He was here primarily to probe and incidentally to learn about Tang Qishan’s intentions, and although he hadn’t found out much, at least it wasn’t a fruitless trip.

It seemed that the depth of that organization exceeded her imagination.

Mu Lin suddenly realized that she seemed to be growing more indifferent. Initially, she was anxious about her master’s death and identity, but now she seemed less worried about it all.

Haste doesn’t bring success. She believed that some things and some people will present themselves when the time comes, just like the two self-righteous women who turned up on her first day in the C Province.

...

"Dad, I’m back." Tang Jun approached Tang Qishan, his eyes subconsciously peeking outside the door, but unfortunately, not even a shadow was in sight.

"Hmm." Tang Qishan grinned and nodded, sitting down and looking up at Tang Jun. "Why did you come back so early today?" They rarely saw each other at this hour.

"There was only one class in the afternoon, so I came home after it ended." Tang Jun sat down, sprawled out on the sofa, looking very satisfied.

"Be graceful whether sitting or standing, how many times have I told you?" Tang Qishan scolded instinctively, trying to correct Tang Jun’s casual nature.

Unfortunately, it was not easy to correct something so ingrained, especially when Tang Jun himself did not see it as a problem.

Upon hearing Tang Qishan’s words, he rolled his eyes in frustration, "Isn’t home a place to relax? Why should I care about how I sit or stand?"

He couldn’t reason with this twisted logic, so Tang Qishan neither tried to argue nor continued the conversation.

Tang Jun gazed at Tang Qishan, curiously asking with caution, "Dad, who was that girl just now? Is she from that place?" ’That place’ was the term Tang Jun used to refer to a certain location.

"What place?" Tang Qishan was momentarily confused and instinctively questioned back.

"You know, that place you hate." Tang Jun reminded.

Tang Qishan shook his head, "No, I met Mu Lin in Ming City during an Investor Conference. She came to C Province yesterday, so I invited her to our house as a courtesy. But she refused." And the refusal was so direct.

Mu Lin was straightforward and uncompromising, true to her character.

It seemed that even though she agreed to visit them today, this didn’t mean she wanted to build a deep relationship with them. Of course, this was normal considering they’ve only met twice. Perhaps he was a bit hasty.

So concerning some matters, Tang Qishan was not in a position to confront her directly, lest he caused unnecessary misunderstandings.

"So she’s not from that place." No wonder he thought his father had suddenly decided to open up to those people and seemed to be in a good mood after meeting them. However, Tang Qishan looked at Tang Jun, "Let me tell you, don’t mess with Mu Lin. She’s someone you can’t afford to mess with." At least not now.

If it ended up causing serious harm, then even he wouldn’t be able to help. It would be his own misfortune.

But Tang Jun seemed to take it lightly, "Is she really as terrifying as you say?" Isn’t she just a girl? Why can’t he mess with her? In C Province, Tang Jun couldn’t think of many entities he was not allowed to provoke. This was the first time Tang Qishan had warned him so seriously. This felt somewhat interesting.

People have this nasty habit - if you ask them not to provoke someone, they just love to do the opposite. If you let them go, they might not even care anymore.

Anyway, one way or another, Tang Jun was extremely curious about Mu Lin, especially about her identity. The fact that his father seriously warned him about her was intriguing to him, he would have to discover it by himself.

Tang Qishan sighed, he knew his child too well—for it is in his nature to provoke those he was warned against. However, this time he really couldn’t let him mess with Mu Lin. If he did, he would surely teach him a lesson and make him remember.

He had doted on him too much over the years, it seemed he didn’t know his limits.

"It’s not that terrifying." Tang Qishan snorted, looking at Tang Jun. "Do you know who she is? What her status is? If you don’t, then don’t make trouble." He had seen Mu Lin’s capabilities and he remembered it well.

And let’s not even mention the rumors about her.

"What status?" Instinctively, Tang Jun looked at Tang Qishan, his eyes filled with curiosity, "Is she from those families?" Those were indeed not to be messed with lightly, given that they had severed ties with them.

As for those families, Tang Jun did hold certain reservations about them; even that organization was quite cautious around them.

Generally, they avoided offending people not to be trifled with, lest they invite trouble and end up on the losing side.
