Chapter 166: Chapter 0166: Meeting Grandfather (Part 1)

Lin Shanshan couldn’t help but laugh at his stinginess, knowing full well he was reluctant to cancel his hotel reservation.

She drove to Dongyang Mountain, where Zhou Yunshen, Long Fei’s master, lived, as did Elder Master Lin.

However, Elder Master Lin’s villa was located halfway up the mountain.

To preserve the scenic area’s environment, the planning bureau only allowed for a few villas to be developed on the mountainside.

Rumor had it that in the mornings, one could see Dongyang with clouds underfoot, and the view was nothing short of spectacular.

Long Fei thought it over and decided to visit Elder Master Lin, and if time permitted, he would also drop by his master’s place to check on his recent progress.

The security guard was just as pompously self-important as ever, and when he saw Lin Shanshan driving a Citroen, he came over with a baton to stop her.

Muttering and cursing, he approached and said, "Hey, are you blind or what? If you want to sightsee, go over there; this is a private community, and you’re not allowed in!"

Lin Shanshan rolled down the window and raised an eyebrow at him.

The security guard stood to attention when he saw her, saluting and saying, "I’m sorry, Miss Lin the Second, I didn’t recognize you!"

Lin Shanshan asked him, "Who is blind?"

The security guard patted his cheek and said, "It’s me, I’m the blind one. Next time, I’ll definitely look carefully and won’t stop you again!"

He promptly opened the retractable gate, his face filled with smiles.

Lin Shanshan put on her sunglasses, wound up the window, and drove off.

Long Fei shook his head, feeling absolutely no fondness for the security guard.

He was a typical opportunist with no backbone.

Lin Shanshan commented, "See, that’s how people are. If they see you have money, they look up to you; if you drive a beat-up car, they boss you around like they’re some sort of lord and master."

"You’re casting too wide a net; don’t lump me in with them!"

Long Fei gave her an unamused look.

Lin Shanshan laughed, "Right, not you. If that were the case, I, Lin Shanshan, wouldn’t be friends with you!"

Su Yiyi called from behind, "Sister Shanshan, I’m not like that either!"

Lin Shanshan laughed heartily at her, "Yiyi, we women can be. Since ancient times, it’s been a male-dominated society, and women have always depended on men for sustenance. Opportunism is human nature. Men can use morality to cover up their flaws, but we women don’t need to."

"Don’t lead the kid astray!"

Long Fei was sweating and couldn’t fathom where she had picked up such twisted logic.

Su Yiyi declared with integrity, "I won’t rely on a man to provide for me; when I start earning money, I will repay Brother Long!"

Both Lin Shanshan and Long Fei laughed as they drove the car up the community road towards the mountainside.

It was nearly noon by now, and there was no mist on the mountain, just the gentle sunshine.

The entire journey was as picturesque as a park.

Su Yiyi’s eyes widened with surprise; she never imagined that wealthy people could live in such a place.

In the past, she couldn’t have even dreamed of this.

Scattered across the mountainside were a few villas, probably only about a dozen or so, with considerable distances between them.

Elder Master Lin lived in one of the middle ones, which was in an exceptionally good location and even boasted a large garden in front.

The lawn spread elegantly in front of the villa.

There was a swimming pool in front of the villa, and when Long Fei and his group arrived, there were quite a few young men and women frolicking in the pool.

After entering, Lin Shanshan looked towards the pool and frowned, "Strange, Grandfather usually doesn’t allow people here. Who brought all these people today?"

Long Fei found an excuse and said, "Shall we go then? Perhaps they have guests over today!"

"Why are you nervous?"

Lin Shanshan gave him a look and got out of the car.

Long Fei and Su Yiyi got out as well, and he said to her, feeling frustrated, "I’m not nervous; it’s just, what am I supposed to say to your grandfather?"

Squinting her eyes, Lin Shanshan replied, "You don’t have to say anything, just follow me."

She led Long Fei and Su Yiyi inside, where two young people sitting under a parasol by the pool narrowed their eyes, staring at her.

Lin Shanshan also stared at them, muttering, "So he’s the one who’s come back!"

Long Fei curiously asked, "Who is he?"

Lin Shanshan replied, "My second uncle’s son, Lin Jiahui."

Long Fei gazed over as well.

The two people, one an Easterner, the other with a Western face.

The Westerner’s gaze was sharp as he sized up Lin Shanshan with ill intent.

It was indeed Markus who leaned into Lin Jiahui’s ear, his face alive with excitement, "Lin, your cousin is really not bad-looking!"

Lin Jiahui smiled, "She’s not bad, and she has an older sister who’s even better-looking."

Markus chuckled, "Then when the chance comes, might I have a go?"

"If that makes you happy!"

Lin Jiahui lifted his glass of red wine with a smile, and seeing Lin Shanshan walk in, he got up and spread his arms, greeting her excitedly, "Shanshan, it’s been years, and you’ve grown into a young lady?"

Lin Shanshan stopped in her tracks, ignoring him and said, "I was wondering who made this place feel so dark and gloomy, turns out it’s you who’s returned!"

Lin Jiahui awkwardly lowered his arms, smiling lightly, "Why do you still have such deep animosity towards your cousin? We had some misunderstandings in the past, but it’s been many years, it’s time to let them go."

Lin Shanshan responded with a cold face, "No, rest assured, I haven’t let go. I have nothing to say to you, you might as well continue to amuse yourself with your coterie of fair-weather friends!"

She began to lead Long Fei and Lin Shanshan away as she spoke.

Markus stretched out his arm, blocking her path and said, "Lady, your words are quite impolite, don’t you think?"

Long Fei stepped forward, protecting Lin Shanshan, and grabbed Markus’s wrist.

Markus’s brow raised as the muscles in his arm bulged, attempting to pull back his wrist and throw Long Fei off.

But Long Fei’s grip was like a vice, immovable, squeezing so tightly that Markus’s bones made crunching noises.

Both men locked eyes, each surprised by the other.

Long Fei said coolly, "Miss Lin the Second doesn’t need your input on what she says. If you don’t want to embarrass yourself, you’d better behave."

After he released his hold, Markus drew his arm back, wincing as he shook his wrist.

Lin Jiahui burst out laughing, "What’s going on here? We finally meet after so long, and we’re already coming to blows. Shanshan, you go ahead; we’ll talk when you’re in a better mood."

Lin Shanshan, uninterested, passed by with Long Fei and Su Yiyi.

Markus eyed Long Fei, licking his lips and said, "That kid is quite something, even stronger than me."

Lin Jiahui looked at him and asked, "You can’t beat him?"

Markus shook his head, "Don’t know, being strong is one thing, fighting is another. Given the chance, I’d really like to test him."

Lin Jiahui patted his shoulder, "There will be opportunities, and you made the right decision. Acting out in my grandfather’s house would definitely have led to punishment!"

Markus laughed, "Lin, you underestimate me. I do have some sense of measure."

Lin Jiahui smiled and patted him on the hand in a somewhat meaningful gesture.

The girls at the swimming pool frowned, yelling at him discontentedly, "Young Master Lin, come down and join us!"

"Yeah, Young Master Lin, it’s no fun without you!"

Lin Jiahui stretched and lazily headed towards the pool, cursing them, "A bunch of noisy girls, can’t live without a man!"

He and Markus dove into the pool, each hugging two girls, and began to frolic.

Long Fei stood at the entrance of the villa and looked back, thinking these rich second generation really know how to live it up.

Long-legged and busty beauties, goddess-like in the eyes of a loser, yet they treated them like dogs.

Lin Shanshan waved her hand in front of his face and said, "What, got dazzled by the sight? Why don’t you go down and play too?"

Long Fei chuckled, "For real? Then I’ll go, okay?"

"Go to hell!"

Lin Shanshan cursed and grabbed him, pulling him into the villa.
