Chapter 591: Troubles on White Hero's Side
Mom, what are you thinking?
Seeing her mother frown, Guo Yanru gently shook Lin Qingyue in her arms and asked casually.
Qin Li stared at Guo Yanru and said, "Oldest, you and Old Two aren't hiding something from me, are you?"
"What's the matter?"
Guo Yanru's heart gave a sudden thump, and she asked somewhat guiltily.
Qin Li said, "I've long noticed something off with Old Two; I found out everything at the hospital. How long do you plan to keep this from me?"
Actually, Qin Li wasn't sure at that moment; she was just being clever and said that on purpose.
Guo Yanru basically never lies in front of her parents,
Taken in by Qin Li's trick, she felt guilty and said, "Yan Qiu is hiding this from you because she's afraid you'll get angry…"
Guo Yanru then spilled everything.
"You two are really something!"
Qin Li stood up, pointed at Guo Yanru, and said angrily.
Then she rushed out the door, told the driver to start the car, and headed for Lin Feng's Sihe Courtyard.
Guo Yanru, fearing something might happen, quickly grabbed the child and followed the car.
After the car drove out of the villa, seeing her mother silent, Guo Yanru said, "Mom, don't be angry; you know our family isn't like ordinary families…"
Guo Yanru didn't know how to explain.
Qin Li, however, laughed and said, "I'm angry that you kept this from me, not because of my adorable granddaughter!"
Earlier, upon hearing the news, Qin Li was still very angry.
But she soon came to terms with it.
Things have come to this; what else can she do?
She can only accept it.
Looking at it another way, Guo Yanqiu's child is also a continuation of her and her late husband's bloodline.
One more person makes the family more prosperous.
That's… sigh!
Qin Li could only sigh in her heart.
This Lin Feng is practically like an ancient emperor.
On the Sihe Courtyard side, Guo Yanqiu thought it over and felt it was best to keep it hidden for now!
We've come this far; let's wait until the child is older and the mother's health improves before saying anything.
Lin Qingxia suddenly burst into tears.
Lin Feng quickly took the child from her hands and held him, coaxing him.
Lin Qingxia widened her eyes at Lin Feng, smiled, and that smile looked somewhat triumphant.
Lin Feng thought, "This girl should be proud too; I own trillions in wealth, at least a few percent of which is yours. From the moment you were born, you were destined to surpass 99.99% of people."
After settling his father's affairs, the filial Yang Caiwei has returned.
Seeing Lin Feng and Guo Yanqiu's daughter, she smiled and came forward to play with her.
Lin Qingxia grabbed a lock of Yang Caiwei's hair and wouldn't let go, then suddenly burst into tears.
Yang Caiwei quickly took her into her arms, and the little one again giggled 'ee-ya-ya'.
Lin Feng looked at Lin Qingxia, puzzled, thinking that this little one was born just when Potato Brother had just died…
Thinking of that, Lin Feng shook his head.
This is impossible!
Potato Brother did so many bad things in life; he should now be deep-fried until crisp in the oil pot.
From now on, we can't have such absurd thoughts.
Lin Qingxia soon fell asleep.
Yang Caiwei then returned her to Guo Yanqiu.
Guo Yanqiu took the child back to the room to rest; she is still in the postpartum period, her body is weak, and she is already tired.
Lin Feng asked Yang Caiwei about Potato Brother's funeral arrangements.
Yang Caiwei had already gotten over her father's death; this time she didn't cry.
After saying that, she yawned, and Lin Feng told her to rest.
Seeing Lin Feng alone, Zheng Enhui seized the opportunity and walked over.
It's rare to have a chance to be alone with Lin Feng.
Last time, although she took the initiative, she had figured it out, but Lin Feng hadn't.
"What's the matter?"
Lin Feng asked.
Zheng Enhui said, "There's something only you can help me with."
"Huh?"
Lin Feng looked at Zheng Enhui with a puzzled expression.
"It's like this…"
Zheng Enhui began to explain.
As it turned out, she wasn't without relatives; when she was young, her deceased mother told her she still had an aunt.
But she didn't know the aunt's name or where she lived.
Only Lin Feng could help her find that person.
"Why are you saying it only now?"
Lin Feng asked.
Zheng Enhui said, "You know, the Yang family's situation is complicated; I don't want to cause trouble."
"Alright then!"
Lin Feng nodded and agreed.
Zheng Enhui said, "Lin Feng, thank you! I will never betray you…."
This woman is somewhat like Zhang Shangmei.
She carries madness in her bones.
Whenever he meets a woman like that, Lin Feng actually feels quite pleased.
Zheng Enhui was about to say something else when, at that moment, Guo Yanru and Qin Li arrived.
Guo Yanqiu, who had just fallen asleep, was woken by Qin Li, who then scolded her harshly.
She didn't say anything offensive; instead, she told Guo Yanqiu that she shouldn't have deceived her, and that her obedient granddaughter was pitiful.
Lin Feng stood aside, pretending not to hear.
The sleeping Lin Qingxia was taken into Qin Li's arms, and Qin Li wore a smiling face.
It's great to have a grandma!
Lin Feng recalled his grandmother from a previous life.
Guo Yanqiu took the matter very seriously; she feared her mother's anger, yet Qin Li was delighted…
Thus the matter was perfectly resolved.
Therefore, sometimes one must not get stuck on a point.
What was originally simple need not be made so complicated.
There are only a few days left until the New Year.
But Lin Feng still has to make a trip to Han Guo.
After that, he'll return, set up a schedule, and accompany everyone one by one for a pleasant Spring Festival.
As for gathering the big crowd to celebrate a lively New Year together, Lin Feng didn't even think about it.
Whenever there's a happy occasion, people just come by to visit and give a generous gift.
If we truly spent the festival together, it would certainly feel uncomfortable.
Women's minds are petty.
A casual remark can make them overthink.
Then, after a round of ranking and seniority arguments, even a non‑existent conflict can arise.
Keeping a certain distance now makes everyone— you, me, and all— fine.
Lin Feng has been keeping an eye on Bitcoin's market.
Bitcoin has recently plunged.
Lin Feng opened his phone for a glance; the current Bitcoin price is completely different from the one he remembered.
It's much lower.
It's simple: people have been speculating it up.
Lin Feng had previously purchased 1.2 million coins; now the market makers lack enough holdings and don't want to drive the price too high.
Otherwise he'd have worked in vain, only for others to pick the fruit.
The market makers aren't fools either.
"Whether to speculate or not—if not, then forget it."
Lin Feng muttered that line and decided to set it aside.
Back then, with little cash on hand, Bitcoin was the way he thought he could get rich quickly.
But now, he no longer values it much.
Even if it spikes to $20,000 per coin, that's only two hundred billion.
For this thing, many have become fabulously rich, but even more have lost everything and jumped to their deaths…
If no one speculates, it just stays in one's hand.
Someone drives the price up, then slowly sells it off.
In short, no rush.
He knows he now holds nearly 20,000 tons of gold and is pondering how to liquidate it for cash!
Lin Feng thought of Bai Ying again.
It's been a long time since they've been in touch.
He called, but the line said it couldn't be reached.
He immediately called the office where Bai Ying works.
After inquiring, perhaps it was a confidential matter; the person who answered didn't give Lin the boss even a single extra character.
Nothing much lately.
Even when No. 12 arrived in Han Guo, there wasn't much happening.
The Tai Xun Group, under Liu Jiangyue (Zhang Yao)'s leadership, continues to expand according to the direction set by Lin Feng.
Now Zhang Shangxun is at the height of his fame; no one dares to openly oppose the Tai Xun Group.
Meanwhile, Li Huiying is currently the most watched news figure in Han Guo.
She has become a heroine who does not fear authority.
News outlets and newspapers all positively promote this Prosecutor.
Of course, Lin Feng had arranged all of these in advance.
The people Li Huiying dealt with were all worthless little brats with no utility.
But in the eyes of a Han Country Person, these are all big shots.
At this time next year, Li Huiying will run for election and can smoothly become a volunteer.
Two or three years later, she will succeed an old man as chief volunteer.
Then, after turning thirty, she can try to see if she can become a big boss of Han Guo.
Zheng Enhui's request to Lin Feng was not forgotten by Lin Feng.
After arriving in Han Guo, he instructed Shen Youzhen to assign people to investigate.
It was actually a very simple matter.
Hiring a private detective would suffice; why does Zheng Enhui want to help herself?
Lin Feng thought for a moment and felt that Zheng Enhui had an agenda!
But within just one day, Shen Youzhen handed a piece of information to Lin Feng.
After seeing the information, Lin Feng instantly understood.
Zheng Enhui's concubine is named Chen Qingying, and she has an elder sister named Chen Qingen, who is Zheng Enhui's deceased mother.
Chen Qingying and her husband Liu Chongxian have a son and a daughter.
The elder son Liu Songzhi has just started university, and the second daughter Liu Huixi is eighteen this year, in her senior year of high school.
These two are Zheng Enhui's cousin brother and cousin sister.
The key person is Liu Huixi; she is very beautiful.
Not only is she beautiful, her academic performance is also excellent.
Lin Feng shook his head, having understood Zheng Enhui's goodwill.
This family is doing well; there is no need to disturb them.
But sometimes, some people appear before one's eyes because of fate.
Lin Feng thought for a moment, photographed several pages of the information with his phone, and sent them to Zheng Enhui.
As a man, sometimes even when he knows inside, he must pretend not to know.
Letting a woman play a little cleverness can add some fun to life.
The night of the 12th.
"What have you uncovered these past two days?"
Looking at the man in black before him, Liu Cangyun's uncle Liu Yingji asked sternly.
In the room, besides Liu Yingji, there was Bai Ying and three middle‑aged men.
The black‑clad reporter, appearing in his thirties, had short‑trimmed hair,
Facing Liu Yingji's question, he squeaked and whined, looking unsure how to answer.
"Say whatever you have to say directly!"
Liu Yingji relaxed his breath and said lightly.
The black‑short‑haired man frowned and said, "After our repeated investigations, the result is the same as before: this is almost not achievable by human power."
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle‑aged man frowned and said, "Not human—could it be a ghost?"
The man in black gave a wry smile.
He had expected this outcome, and even he found it unbelievable.
Facing the questioning, he helplessly explained, "I don't mean that; it's the opponent's methods that we don't understand."
Bai Ying remained silent; she came as a representative to record the investigation and had no right to speak.
Liu Yingji was silent for a moment, then said lightly, "This matter can't be delayed any longer; further delay won't reveal anything, so report it truthfully!"
Bai Ying closed the folder in her hands.
Then the group walked out of the dimly lit black room.
At that moment it became clear that the place they had just been in was a shipping container on a ship.
The container was located at a dock.
At the end of last month, a strange incident occurred here.
Half a container's blueprints, under the tight guard of many experts, were forcibly breached, and over ten experts were killed.
Their deaths were caused by powerful force shattering their internal organs.
The container holding the data was ripped open by a huge force, and the contents were burned by a fire.
At the time, all nearby surveillance failed, and although distant cameras were intact, they captured nothing of value.
Three minutes—the entire process took only three minutes!
The blueprints were secretly shipped back; a high‑tech company spent billions of dollars and a full three years to obtain them.
Now, a company's three‑year, billions‑of‑dollars result was burned away by a fire.
It's one thing that such a secret became known, but someone managed to complete the sabotage in just three minutes.
What infuriates is that they still don't know who did it.
In fact, this kind of strange incident has occurred more than once recently.
Some engineers in key positions have mysteriously disappeared or died in accidents.
Also, a large high‑tech project undertaken by a certain company had a critical component sabotaged, forcing the whole project to be delayed half a year.
And overseas, even more incidents have arisen.
These cases, linked together, inevitably make one suspect that a powerful force is trying to block the development of an Eastern great power.
