Chapter 491: I'll Help You Find

~6 min read 1,132 words

He looked as if he were genuinely anxious.

Uncle Lin's behavior almost made Su Manyao laugh.

His disgraceful behavior made Su Manyao unable to hold back her laughter, and her gaze naturally turned cold as she looked at him: "Is this matter none of your business?"

"How could it possibly be related to me?" Uncle Lin said anxiously: "I've known your father for so many years, and I've spent so much time with you—don't you know what kind of person I am? How could you suddenly suspect me?"

"Isn't it normal for me to suspect you?" Su Manyao questioned: "I've seen everything you've done recently, clear as day!"

"In order to get everything you want, you've gone to great lengths. So you're very likely the one who harmed my father."

"Uncle Lin, our family has trusted you all these years, yet you've done something that has made our family so heartbroken. If this gets out, don't you feel your current behavior is letting us down?"

"Moreover, are these things really that important to you? Important enough that you must now exterminate everything here?" Su Manyao looked at the person before her and couldn't help but condemn.

A look of disappointment.

Bian Mu felt a bit guilty, like a thief, but his voice rose involuntarily: "What nonsense are you spouting here? How could I possibly be that kind of person?"

"Who exactly has been whispering nonsense in your ear, to the point that you now refuse to believe me?" Uncle Lin wore a disappointed look, sighing with a face full of worry: "I really do want to get the company, but that's a despicable, shameless act—I could never do something like that!"

"The urgent thing is to quickly find your father and investigate thoroughly—just what happened!" Uncle Lin looked as if he were still quite worried.

Seeing his appearance, Su Manyao found it merely ridiculous.

However, given his demeanor, Su Manyao could only continue acting along with him.

"Then what exactly happened with my father? Who suddenly chose to kidnap my father?" Su Manyao now felt like an ant on a hot pan, her mind in turmoil to the point of being unbearable.

The increasingly tense him couldn't help but pace back and forth on the spot.

He was very afraid.

Uncle Lin comforted Su Manyao: "Don't worry, Uncle Lin, I will definitely help you find your parents!"

"I won't let them bully you!" Uncle Lin said through gritted teeth; the key was that he spoke with a solemn expression, as if he truly would do it.

Su Manyao tightly gripped Uncle Lin's hand: "Are you telling the truth? Can you definitely find my dad?" Tears filled her eyes, her face full of anxiety, showing just how flustered she was at that moment.

"Of course!"

"I will do what I say; you just need to believe me unconditionally!"

Uncle Lin patted his chest, saying: "We've known each other for years; I definitely won't deceive you!" A solemn Uncle Lin furrowed his brows.

Add to that his resonant, powerful words, and it's easy to make people believe him.

But——

Su Manyao had long known his true nature.

From the moment she learned his true nature, Su Manyao's eyes filled with disappointment. Up to now, he has still been putting on an act in front of her, trying to fool her.

However.

Uncle Lin specially sent people to investigate thoroughly in order to make his performance seem even more sincere.

His acting skills could be described as perfected.

Jiang Cheng, however, remained calm as still water, quietly watching the other's performance, finding it merely ridiculous.

Still pretending?

But for now we lack solid evidence to prove his despicable actions, so——we can only endure a little longer!

"Then please take care of it!"

"But Uncle Lin, what do you think is the reason behind Su Manyao's parents being kidnapped? Who holds a grudge, taking advantage of their trip to send people to abduct them both?"

Being stared at intently by Jiang Cheng, Uncle Lin felt a bit guilty, like a thief.

Being a seasoned actor, he quickly composed himself, his expression stern: "I'm not really able to answer that question right now. However, abroad, it's not necessarily due to a grudge; it's just that foreign countries are chaotic, and one might encounter people with malicious intent who want organs or other things."

"So, we shouldn't casually make reckless statements now!" Uncle Lin was more rigorous; he had been pretending in front of Jiang Cheng all along, daring not to reveal even a trace of evidence.

If Jiang Cheng and the others discover this, they might very well find evidence against him. Once evidence is found, his situation will only become worse!

So——

In everything, we still need to be a bit cautious!

"What you said is quite right; this isn't something that only happens domestically—organ harvesting can happen anytime. This matter still needs thorough investigation."

"What?"

Su Manyao looked flustered, rushed to Jiang Cheng's side, and tightly gripped his hand: "You wouldn't be deceiving me, would you? My parents are definitely fine!"

Jiang Cheng pulled Su Manyao into his embrace: "Don't worry, your parents are blessed with great fortune; heaven will surely protect them, and they certainly won't come to harm."

"But I can't contact my parents at all now, and just now during the call, I heard my father's anguished screams—the more I think about it, the more frightened I become!" Su Manyao's voice choked up; she had been frightened quite badly.

Uncle Lin had been puzzled just moments ago—how did Su Manyao know? Dear, after she explained it like this, he suddenly understood.

Ah, I see!

Turns out they were just on the phone a moment ago?

No wonder Su Manyao could find out immediately that her father had been kidnapped!

"With your uncle here, I will strive to find your parents." Uncle Lin made a solemn promise, then flattered Su Manyao: "Your father has done so many good deeds over the years; I believe heaven will surely bless them, so don't let your thoughts run wild!"

"It's getting late now; go home and rest properly, then wait for me to finish handling these matters. Once I have new leads, I'll notify you right away—what do you think?" Uncle Lin really steeled himself, taking this matter upon himself.

But this way, it conveniently clears his suspicion.

Su Manyao cried hysterically: "Thank you, Uncle Lin; without you, I wouldn't know what to do!"

"But could you please ask Uncle Lin, under no circumstances to let this get out? If it leaks, the company's stock could very well plummet severely; by then my parents' side still won't know what's happening, and the company will face danger—combined, I fear things will only get worse."
