Cen Mo chuckled and tapped away the cigarette ash. He strode closer to Lin Nuan, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear, "If Song Yao dies … remember that you're the one who caused her death!"
Lin Nuan's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and an inexplicable fear struck her.
Hearing Liang Mulan's footsteps coming down the stairs, Cen Mo bent over and put out his cigarette in the ashtray. He straightened his body, his cold and indifferent gaze sweeping over Liang Mulan as he bade her farewell.
Liang Mulan adjusted her shawl, a little surprised. "Aren't we waiting for Lin Chen to come back?"
"It's alright. I just received a phone call, so I have some matters to attend to. Auntie Lin, I'll visit again when I'm free …"
Lin Nuan absentmindedly walked Cen Mo to the door with Liang Mulan, her heart filled with worry for Song Yao.
Before getting into the car, Cen Mo looked at Lin Nuan and said, "Miss Lin, remember to pass a message to Miss Song for me … Sorry for the trouble!"
Lin Nuan raised her gaze to look at Cen Mo. He had a smile on his face, and his attitude was calm and polite. It was different from the overbearing attitude he had in the living room earlier on. The two of them clearly didn't have a pleasant conversation earlier on, but Cen Mo relied on the fact that Lin Nuan wouldn't say anything in front of Liang Mulan and spoke without restraint.
Liang Mulan glanced at Lin Nuan in surprise and didn't ask further. She watched as Cen Mo's car left before asking Lin Nuan, "You knew Young Master Cen in the past?"
"My friend knows him." Lin Nuan didn't want Liang Mulan to probe further, so she changed the topic. "Didn't Dad and Brother say how much longer it will take to get home?"
"I'll be back soon!" Liang Mulan held Lin Nuan's hand and gently patted it. "You also know a young man from the Audit Office. His surname is Zhai, and he's a nice guy … He was the one who sent your father back! I've seen him … He's not bad looking, and the way he talks … "
"Mom, are you trying to introduce me to every guy you see now? Are you afraid I won't be able to get married? "Lin Nuan smiled, her voice sweet and soft.
Even so, Lin Nuan still felt very comforted. Compared to the dejected Liang Mulan that night, Lin Nuan liked to see Liang Mulan smiling and full of energy.
"If you agreed to be with your brother, do you think Mom would be so worried?" Liang Mulan couldn't resist squeezing Lin Nuan's petite hand tightly, bringing up the past again. "Why don't you … reconsider your brother? This way, Mom and Dad can be at ease, en? "
As soon as he finished speaking, the black iron gate of the Lin Residence opened, and a black car drove in from a tree-lined path.
"Your dad and brother are back!" Liang Mulan couldn't hide her excitement. Her bright eyes stared at the car as she stood at the door. As the car got closer, a thin layer of frost appeared in her eyes. "Your grandfather is already so old. This time, for the sake of his two sons … he suffered a lot."
Liang Mulan didn't elaborate on the rest …
When Old Master Lin was young, his methods were impressive. Back then, he was also a well-known figure in both the political and business world. Even after he retired, his prestige still remained.
This time, in order to protect his two sons, Old Master Lin even put down his pride, which was the most important thing in his life, and personally begged for help.
The car stopped in front of the door. Lin Jingquan got out of the car, but Lin Chen was nowhere to be seen.
"Dad …" Lin Nuan smiled at Lin Jingquan, her eyes slightly red.
