Chapter 105: Not Worrying
Chapter 105: Not Worrying
Lin Dawei had always been a marginal figure in the five major families, and he had never spoken a word in such an occasion. But today, he suddenly said something like this, which made everyone present break out in a cold sweat.
"Lao Lin, what did you just say?" Li Toyota, who has always been known for his calmness, could not hide the waves in his heart at this moment. He was the first to break the sudden silence, with a bit of incredible urgency in his voice.
"Is this true?" Hong Dancheng could no longer contain himself. He stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open, and stared at Lin Dawei with astonishment on his face.
"I'm not very clear about the details, but I can guarantee that the kid will definitely come back." Lin Dawei sat up straight, fiddling with the crab shells in a plate beside him with one hand, his face extremely calm.
"Who told you this news?" Tian Zhenyuan seemed very calm. He already had some guesses in his mind. He had already started to doubt it during the previous conversation with Tian Tian in the study. Now that he heard it with his own ears, he seemed a little unconvinced.
"I can't tell you the source of this information just yet, but I'm here to give you a heads-up! It's been 15 years, and what's coming has finally come. Let's just accept our fate!"
Lin Dawei still seemed so nonchalant, as if anything happening here had nothing to do with him.
"Hmph! So what if he comes back?" Beichen seemed nonchalant. He had already put Fan Jiang's affairs aside. The Beiming Group was already plagued by internal and external troubles. If that guy wanted to come back and take it back, he would be happy to give it all back to him. But even then, it would depend on whether that guy had the life to do so.
"That's true!" Li Toyota picked up his wine glass again. "But Old Tian, you can breathe a sigh of relief! I know you've never given up looking for that child all these years. You should be very happy that he's back!"
Tian Zhenyuan's lips curled up slightly, his face still as calm as ever. "Whether you come back or not, what does it matter?" He raised his head and looked around at everyone. "No one here can escape from what happened 15 years ago!"
Beichen still looked nonchalant. "So what? Do you think he can still stir up any waves now? Don't forget, 15 years ago, his father was so powerful, but he still ended up with his family destroyed."
Lin Dawei's cheek muscles twitched slightly when he heard this. He could still vividly remember everything that happened that night. He had been living an unhappy life for so many years. The others here might not know the reasons, but he knew it clearly.
"From what you said, it seems you still don't intend to let our Lin family go?"
"Your Lin family?" Beichen smiled coldly, "Uncle Lin, don't you think it's ridiculous when you say this?"
Lin Dawei looked at Beichen coldly for the first time. Beichen was just stunned for a moment and then returned to normal in an instant.
Tian Zhenyuan had been sitting next to Lin Dawei. He stood up, walked to Lin Dawei, put out his hand and pressed his shoulder. Lin Dawei calmed down a little.
"Don't say those angry words. Since the child is coming back, regardless of whether this news is true or not, we should all think carefully about it..."
Before Tian Zhenyuan could finish his words, Beichen also stood up. "Uncle Tian, when you say this, don't forget who has been beneficiaries of our current prosperity and wealth. Don't let your impulsiveness ruin your good fortune."
Beichen's words were full of threat. Ever since he took over the Beiming Group, he had always stood on the side of the Jiang family, and everyone present was openly loyal to the Jiang family.
"Are you talking about the Jiang family?" Hong Dancheng smiled coldly. "Over the years, the Jiang family has exploited us endlessly. When have you ever seen them actually help us? To be frank, if it weren't for the Long family's secret support over the years, let alone the five major families, even Fanjiang would probably not be in such a good situation today!"
These words were clearly and implicitly choosing sides. Even though they had been secretly disobeying the Jiang family over the years, they still gave the Jiang family enough face.
Tian Zhenyuan had been standing behind Lin Dawei. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he could feel that he seemed dissatisfied with the current situation.
"It's too early to talk about this now. Shouldn't we think about how to get rid of that guy called Mr. Gu?" Beichen said with a cold smile, "If we don't solve this big problem at hand, once that guy really comes back, do you think we will still have the energy to deal with them?"
Hong Dancheng sat down again, head bowed, his thoughts unsettled. Tian Zhenyuan remained standing, his gaze fixed on a mural in the private room. Only Li Toyota remained seated, drinking, his expression unperturbed.
Lin Tao's office.
Liu Liu's eyes widened. He couldn't believe the news he had just heard.
"That girl ran away again?"
Lin Tao showed a bitter face and nodded helplessly.
"Then, what should we do? What did Xiao Ran say? How could he not keep an eye on such a grown-up? Oh my God, where did this girl go again? What if something happens?"
Liu Liu's mouth was like a machine gun, a series of questions kept popping out of his mouth, making Lin Tao's head hurt even more.
"Can you please stop chattering? You think I'm annoying, don't you?"
"But I'm really worried!" Liu Liu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "That girl is the princess of our Siam. If something happens to her in China, it will be no joke!"
"I don't know!" Lin Tao rolled his eyes at him. "Why don't you just send someone out to look for it instead of just talking nonsense here?"
Liu Liu suddenly realized and slapped his forehead, "I, I will tell them to find it right away."
Liu Liu was about to run out when Lin Tao saw him, frowned, and called out to him, "Wait a moment."
Liu Liu turned around and looked at him in confusion, "What's the matter?"
"This matter must be carried out in secret. Don't make too much noise. After all, she is a princess. It would not be good if there is too much noise." Lin Tao whispered, and Liu Liu quickly nodded and did it.
