After declining Shang Yao's invitation for afternoon tea, Xiao Zheng hurried back to the hotel. As soon as he opened the door of the room, he was shocked by the scene of the two women in the reception room.
Old Lin was in casual clothes, making tea in the reception room. The person sitting opposite him was none other than Tina, who had been urgently recalled by Xiao Zheng.
During this period, Tina occasionally went abroad to relax, and she had been following Xiao Zheng like a shadow for a long time. Although she had nothing to do, it made her life more fulfilling. This trip to White Town was determined by Xiao Zheng as a high-risk one. Therefore, the main purpose of recalling Tina was to protect the safety of Old Lin.
With Tina, except for a few top powerhouses, even if she faced the powerhouses of the Eight Masters, Tina would still have the power to fight. She would not quickly put Old Lin in a desperate situation.
On the contrary, Old Lin had a terrifying family background to support him. Among the small group of top powerhouses, few dared to act rashly.
Even the descendants of the Zhao family had to think about how to explain to Lin Laoyao if they hurt Old Lin.
At present, Xiao Zheng still could not straighten out the relationship between the descendants of the Zhao family and Lin Laoyao. But it was certain that they must have a common goal to some extent. Otherwise, Lin Laoyao would not have quickly defined Qiu Shou as the second boss of the Lin family.
See, this was an opportunity.
When you had absolute power, as long as you were given a slight chance, it was enough for you to soar to the sky. Looking at Lin Xiaozhu, Lin Laoyao had definitely given her a lot of resources. At a young age, she was in charge of the Feite platform. But after all, she lacked experience and ability. Otherwise, Lin Laoyao might not mind transferring the full power of the Internet department to her. Not Qiu Shou.
In the Lin family, no matter how high Lin Laoyao's prestige was, he could make the final decision. He also had to be responsible to the board. He had absolute personnel power, and it was impossible to override the interests of the board. If he really played like this a few times, it would be difficult for Lin Laoyao to convince the public.
Therefore, Qiu Shou, who had outstanding abilities, became the number one candidate for Lin's Internet Department and became famous in the business world of Hua Xia. Her current status was at least at the level of Shang Yao.
Speaking of which, Lin Laoyao's ability to create gods was quite outstanding.
"You're back?" Old Lin prepared an extra teacup. He calmly poured three cups of tea and said. "Try it."
The first sentence was directed at Xiao Zheng.
The last sentence was directed at Tina.
Old Lin had met Tina many times. He had even worked in Xin Ao for a period of time as Old Lin's personal bodyguard. Therefore, among the many women around Xiao Zheng, Tina was probably the only one who dared to sit in front of Old Lin openly.
Not even Blue Heart could do it.
This was especially true for Blue Heart, who had revealed her relationship with Xiao Zheng.
Tina nodded lightly, her scarlet eyes looking down. He took a sip of Pu 'er tea but didn't say a word.
She is not good with words, but usually shows her heart in action. In front of Old Lin, who had an even more beautiful voice, she was even more unwilling to reveal her shortcomings. This was probably the only pride in Tina's uncomplicated heart.
Xiao Zheng didn't hold back and took a sip of tea.
"How is White Cloud Mansion?" Lin Huayin put down the cup and asked calmly.
"How is it?" Xiao Zheng asked casually.
"Every aspect." Lin Huayin continued to pour tea.
"The mansion is quite grand. But it's very messy inside. "Xiao Zheng let out a breath of turbid air.
Speaking of White Cloud Mansion, Xiao Zheng felt a little emotional. A super rich family that was once like the sun in the sky had now fallen apart because the old man was gone. Even Uncle Bai was disheartened and decided to split from the family. How sad was this? But it wasn't sad at all.
The old man's death had not been decided yet.
Bai Wushuang's bold and decisive purge of the elders had also caused a huge backlash. Once the old monk split from the family, many of the old monk's subordinates would shift their focus and draw a clear line with Bai Wushuang and his son. A rich and powerful family might fall into chaos because of the old man's death.
The tea on the tea table was boiling hot. Tina looked down and sipped the tea. She didn't participate in the couple's conversation, as if she was invisible. Lin Huayin didn't seem to care that Tina was sitting there.
"The situation in White City will be a little complicated these days. Ye Canghua called me in the afternoon. She said many big shots are rushing over. They have different purposes. But the descendants of the Zhao family are gradually coming to the surface. Everyone knows about them, "Lin Huayin said with a pout. "Be careful when you go out to deal with affairs."
"I know." Xiao Zheng nodded and passed the empty teacup to Elder Lin. Then, he took the second cup of tea. He reminded him. "If I'm not here, call Tina when you go out. She can protect you. "
Hearing that, Lin Huayin looked up and glanced at Xiao Zheng. "Tina is your friend, not your fighter."
She meant that he shouldn't order Tina around.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he grinned and said, "To a certain extent, she is indeed my hired thug."
Lin Huayin did not respond. Instead, she looked at Tina, "If I were you, "If I were you, I would break up with him."
A stiff and ugly smile appeared on Tina's cold and heartless face. "It's okay."
Tina had just arrived and hadn't checked into the room yet. Old Lin seemed to be a little sleepy. He pulled Tina out of the house to settle the paperwork. He told her some details.
"Bai Zhenqing's death is a little strange," Xiao Zheng said with a serious expression in the elevator. "If it's really a murder, everyone who appears in White Town is a suspect and dangerous."
"I won't let anything happen to her." Determination flashed in Tina's scarlet eyes. "Unless I die."
Xiao Zheng glared at Tina. "Not only do you have to protect her, but you also have to protect yourself."
Tina squinted her eyes and said, "There are a few people I can't kill."
Xiao Zheng shook his head. He knew that Tina was going to go to a dead end again. He tried to persuade her, "Haste makes waste in martial arts. For a woman like you to have such achievements, you've already earned the respect of many men. "
Tina didn't respond. She fell into silence.
To ensure Old Lin's safety, Xiao Zheng booked a room for Tina next door. They went back to the elevator and went upstairs after reminding each other about some minor issues.
"When you have a child." It was rare for Tina to be talkative. "Can I be the godmother?"
"Of course," Xiao Zheng said softly with a smile. "As long as you're willing."
After a pause, she asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Tina shouldn't know that Old Lin was going to have a child. Unless it was just a casual question. Or, based on Old Lin's age, she was going to have a child soon.
"The way she walks is different from before," Tina said in a low voice.
Tina had a similar experience. In fact, many women had similar experiences. However, no one was more perceptive than Tina and paid attention to the details.
As the world's top assassin, she would imprint her target's every move in her mind. Any abnormality would be captured by her sharp senses.
Even Xiao Zheng couldn't compare to her in this aspect.
Even Xiao Zheng didn't notice anything unusual about Old Lin. However, Tina, who was also a woman, saw it clearly. They were indeed the same kind.
