Fatso's hometown was Nanmu Town. Just like Wulin Town, it was a D-grade foothold within the jurisdiction of Baqi City. It was around 1,300 kilometers away from Baqi City.
Lin Huang and Lin Xin had breakfast early in the morning. They returned to Baqi City through the dimensional relic that Lin Huang had located earlier. They then rode on the Viridescent Thunderhawk towards Nanmu Town.
It was around 8 am when they arrived at Nanmu Town. The town was bustling with people.
The appearance of the Viridescent Thunderhawk caught the attention of many people in the town.
Lin Huang recalled the Viridescent Thunderhawk and found out the location of the Yi family easily.
The foothold was not big. It was only slightly bigger than Wulin Town. Lin Huang did not summon the Viridescent Wolf. Instead, he walked to the Yi family's house with Lin Xin.
Along the way, Lin Huang was thinking about what he should say.
Lin Xin followed him without saying a word. She was not as lively as she usually was.
Approximately seven to eight minutes later, they finally arrived at the spacious courtyard that the guide mentioned.
The Yi family was obviously a wealthy family in the town. Judging from the courtyard alone, it was at least 1,000 square meters.
The black gate was locked. There was an old man with gray hair sitting in a gazebo not far away from the gate.
"What are you doing here?" The old man stood up and asked when he saw the both of them standing in front of the gate.
"Is this the Yi family? I'm Yin Hangyi's friend and this is my sister. I was asked by Yin Hangyi to visit the old lady at the Yin residence today, "Lin Huang said politely.
"Young master's friend? Give me a minute, I'll inform the butler. " The old man dialed a number and hung up after a short conversation. He then came to open the door.
"Please come in. The butler is waiting for you at the entrance." The guard smiled and nodded at the both of them as he opened the door.
As they walked through the courtyard, a middle-aged man in a tuxedo stood at the entrance and nodded at them. He was obviously the butler of the Yi family.
"Please follow me to the living room." The butler led the two of them to the living room on the left side of the hall.
After entering the living room, the butler poured tea for the two of them and asked casually, "How should I address you two?"
"My name is Lin Huang, and this is my sister, Lin Xin," Lin Huang said.
"So you're Mister Lin Huang. Young Master often mentions you, saying that you're a promising young man with extraordinary strength." After confirming Lin Huang's identity, the butler was much more enthusiastic.
"May I know why Mr. Lin Huang and Miss Lin Xin are here?" The butler handed over two cups of tea.
"I was asked by Hangyi to meet the old lady." Lin Huang knew it was best to tell the news of Yin Hangyi's death to the person in charge of the Yin family.
"I see … The old lady just woke up. She's having breakfast now. I'll inform her. Please wait for a while." The butler did not ask any further and left after apologizing to the both of them.
"Brother Fatso's family is quite rich," Lin Xin said while smiling faintly.
"It's Fatso's father's business. Now that Fatso's father is gone, and now that Fatso is gone, I guess it's hard for the hotel's business to continue. Many people go to the restaurant because of Fatso's father's cooking skills. At least Fatso learned 50% to 60% of his father's cooking skills. The rest of the Yin family doesn't have much talent in cooking … "Lin Huang knew why Fatso wanted him to buy the Yin family's hotel. Even if he did not take it over, the Yin family would sell the hotel to someone else soon.
"Without the hotel's income, it'll be hard for the Yin family to maintain their current situation." Lin Xin realized that too.
"Therefore, as soon as the news of Fatso's death spreads, the Yin family will sell the hotel if they're smart enough." "That's why they'll sell the hotel as soon as the news of Fatso's death spreads. Moreover, they'll lose more and more money if they continue to operate the hotel. It'll be better for them to sell the hotel as soon as possible while it's still profitable." Lin Huang nodded helplessly.
"Why don't you buy the Yin family's hotel, brother? We can hire some good chefs to make some new specialties. Even if we can't earn much, we shouldn't lose money, "Lin Xin suggested.
"Fatso wants me to buy it too, but I can't bring it up. It'll depend on the old lady's opinion." Lin Huang knew that if he were to bring up the matter of buying the hotel now, the Yin family would think that he was taking advantage of the situation instead of helping them in their hour of need.
Just as the two of them took two sips of tea, the butler walked back quickly and said to the two of them, "The old lady wants to see you. Please come with me."
The two of them followed the butler to the second floor.
In the living room on the second floor, a silver-haired old lady was sitting on the sofa. There were two women sitting on each side of her.
Lin Huang guessed that the two women were either Fatso's aunts, aunts, or aunts.
The old lady waved at the two of them and said warmly, "The two of you are Hangyi's friends. Have a seat. There's no need to feel awkward, just treat this as your own home. "
"Hello, Grandma and Aunts," Lin Huang greeted the three of them.
The butler went to the kitchen and served them a cup of tea before leaving.
Lin Huang sat on a chair not far away from the sofa. He did not feel uncomfortable at all. Lin Xin sat next to him, looking a little uncomfortable.
"I heard from the butler that your name is Lin Huang?" The old lady chuckled and asked.
"Yeah, I'm Lin Huang. This is my sister, Lin Xin." Lin Huang nodded and introduced himself.
"I've heard about you from Hangyi. He said that you've saved his life before … He even said that you're skilled and talented in cultivation. You're a genius," the old lady complimented while smiling.
"Hangyi must be joking …" Lin Huang did not know what to say at that moment.
"Oh yeah, let me introduce myself. I'm Hangyi's grandmother. The one on my left is Hangyi's aunts, and the one on my right is Hangyi's aunts. "The old lady just remembered that she did not introduce the three of them.
"Did you know that Hangyi got a girlfriend recently? She's pretty, but I'm worried that she's not serious about Hangyi. She's so pretty. What does she like about Hangyi? You're Hangyi's friend, help us keep an eye on him. Don't let him get cheated … "The old lady could not stop nagging. Lin Huang finally knew where Fatso got his mouth from.
He was interrupted by his aunts after he said a bunch of things to Lin Huang.
"Mom, don't just talk to yourself. Hangyi went on a trip and asked his friend to come here. He must have something to tell us, "his aunts advised.
"Look at my bad memory. I forgot about the important thing. Hangyi must have something important to tell you guys to come here, right? "The old lady asked.
Lin Huang looked bitter. He had been looking for a chance to tell them, but he could not find a way to tell them the truth with the old lady's words.
Now that the three of them were looking at him with anticipation, Lin Huang did not know what to say.
The old lady seemed to have noticed something from Lin Huang's expression. She asked carefully, "Lin Huang, did … did something happen to Hangyi?"
Lin Huang's silence made the atmosphere take a turn for the worse.
"Tell me, I can take anything." The old lady took a deep breath and nodded at Lin Huang. She seemed to have expected something as her eyes were filled with tears.
"I'm sorry …" Lin Huang looked helpless, but he still told the truth. "Hangyi … is dead …"
