Not long ago, because Lin Chaoyue plotted against Lin Ran, he asked the waiter to write a very outrageous compensation bill for the latter. In response to this malicious temptation, Lin Ran asked Cheng Hongyu to take action and directly sell Lin Chaoyue's restaurant.
It was smashed.
If you test me, I'll slap you in the face!
The luxurious restaurant, which had cost tens of millions of dollars to renovate, was smashed into ruins, and not even half of its original appearance could be seen.
Well, Cheng Hongyu is also a ruthless person. In order to show his goodwill to Lin Ran, he carried out his orders to the letter and did not even leave a complete tile in the bathroom of the restaurant!
Afterwards, Lin Chaoyue didn't say a word, at least on the surface he remained silent, seeming to have suffered the loss of being mute.
What does this cousin think?
Lin Ran was too lazy to care about this. He didn't care about the attitude of the Lin family at all.
Indeed, as Lin Kaige said, many things in the past have passed.
For example, those so-called relatives, Lin Ran would naturally no longer regard them as family members.
However, there are some things that are impossible to live with.
For example, Lin Chaoyue.
Seeing Lin Kaige fell into silence, Lin Ran smiled and asked: "Why, is this request difficult? I didn't ask your father to apologize to me."
"As for my father, you should also know that it is impossible for him to apologize." Lin Kaige shook his head, "As for Lin Chaoyue... our cousin is no longer as harmless as he was when he was a child."
"So, what's the point of me going back to the Lin family for dinner?" Lin Ran said with a faint smile, "Do you want me to be humiliated by your family?"
"With me here, no one dares to humiliate you." Lin Kaige gave Lin Ran a deep look: "No matter what, you should take back the knife from my second uncle."
Finally got to the point!
After hearing this, Lin Ran frowned severely!
Dad’s portable weapon!
A few years ago, Lin Ran was kicked out of the Lin family. At that time, he was almost like a wandering child. He only brought a few clothes. The Lin family didn't even leave any dry food for him, let alone those who left his father at home.
Things were brought out.
After Lin Kaige finished saying this, he thought that Lin Ran would definitely go back to get the knife, but he didn't expect that the latter's frown would relax again.
"My dad has many knives," he said, "not just that one."
Lin Kaige shook his head: "Don't deceive yourself. No matter how many knives my uncle has, he only has this one famous weapon."
Lin Ran smiled and said: "He has his knife, and I also have mine. Do you understand, Lin Kaige?"
After saying that, he directly took Li Qiushui's hand and got into the car.
Lin Kaige stood behind Lin Ran, laughed, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "I really envy my younger brother's wealth, but, are you really not going to take away my second uncle's knife?
"
After a pause, a light flashed in his eyes, and he added in a low voice, "I don't believe it. .”
…………
After getting in the car, Li Qiu Shui calmly put on his seat belt and started the car, seemingly not paying any attention to what happened when Lin Ran held his hand just now.
"Uncle's knife..."
Li Qiushui drove the car and said: "I still suggest you not to go back to pick it up for the time being. After all, if they are serious about it, they will definitely send it back."
"So, you also think this is a trap, right?" Lin Ran said with a smile.
He seemed to have anticipated this day.
"Well, except for Lin Zijin, I don't recommend that you have too many interactions with other Lin family members." Li Qiushui said, "Although I have only had limited contact with the Lin family a few times over the years, to be honest, I
I really don’t like the people in this family, most of them are very... utilitarian."
"If I go back this time, I will definitely be used as a shield by Lin Kaige." Lin Ran narrowed his eyes: "At that time, once he conflicts with Lin Chaoyue, I will have to stand in the middle to block him.
Already."
Li Qiushui nodded lightly, and then said: "However, if you never go back, I'm afraid they will come to visit you again."
"It's what I asked for." Lin Ran smiled slightly, looking like he was even looking forward to it.
Half an hour later, Li Qiushui's car stopped.
"Why did you bring me here?" Lin Ran said, looking at the building in front of him.
"Xingyue specifically told me before to give you free access to the laboratory, but you have never been here." Li Qiushui said. "Our laboratory has a lot of cooperation with the military. I believe that Xingyue
Yue must have her reasons for making such arrangements."
"You are really superstitious about your nephew and daughter." Lin Ran said with a smile, "Even the military's core ward has not cured my injury. I don't believe that this place can give me the answer."
"Why don't you go in and take a look?" Li Qiushui got out of the car and persuaded.
In fact, she knew this laboratory quite well, but precisely because she knew it so well, she didn't think it had a medical level that could surpass the military's core care unit.
"That's fine." Lin Ran said.
At this time, Lin Zijin happened to walk out of the building.
The girl was wearing loose black clothes and black pants today, with a long plaid shirt outside, and the brim of her baseball cap was still low.
However, she was holding a long sword in her hand.
This is Lin Zijin's weapon, which is rarely left behind.
"What a coincidence?" Lin Zijin saw Lin Ran and Li Qiu Shui and raised the brim of her hat a little. She smiled and nodded to Li Qiu Shui: "Principal Li... No, hello, Auntie."
Aunt?
Lin Ran almost spit out his saliva.
Li Qiushui's pretty face turned red: "Classmate Zijin, don't say that, your brother-in-law and I are not the kind of relationship you think."
"Lin Zijin!" Lin Ran coughed twice and shouted seriously, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, do you have to make fun of me every time?"
Lin Zijin walked up to Lin Ran and looked up at him slightly. His hair was ruffled by the morning wind, but his eyes were still as clear as before.
She just looked at Lin Ran in silence, the smile on her face gradually fading.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lin Ran felt a little embarrassed.
Facing Lin Zijin's gaze, Lin Ran finally realized that the little girl who used to follow him had truly grown up.
"Uncle, I have missed you for so many years." Lin Zijin looked at Lin Ran, with a sincere feeling in his voice: "Really."
I have missed you so much for so many years.
"Me too." Lin Ran smiled, but there was something slightly wistful in this smile. .??.
In the years since he was kicked out of the Lin family, he has gained a lot, but in fact he has also missed a lot.
Can the gap left by time still be filled?
"I'll wait for you in the laboratory." Li Qiushui pointed to the door and walked over first, leaving space for Lin Ran and Lin Zijin.
"The meal you invited me to have is still missing." Lin Ran looked at the handsome Lin Zijin, and the smile on his face was also from the heart: "She is really a girl, she has grown up, she is beautiful
no."
"Then who is more beautiful between me and your sister Xiaoyi?" Lin Zijin blinked, this action was actually a bit playful.
On weekdays, no one has seen Lin Zijin like this, including her parents.
Only in front of Lin Ran could she do what she should do at this age with peace of mind, without having to take on so many responsibilities that should not belong to her, and without worrying about her other identity and... personality.
"You are all my relatives." Lin Ran gave a standard answer straightforwardly.
Neptune seems to say this.
"You and I are close, but He Xiaoyi and you are not related by blood." Lin Zijin snorted: "This makes me a little envious of her."
Is this still Lin Zijin who led the Blazing Starry Sky Team to sweep through the enemy?
If her team members saw this scene, their jaws would probably drop in shock!
Lin Ran coughed twice and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. I just met Lin Kaige."
Hearing this name, Lin Zijin's expression showed a touch of helplessness, and she said: "In my opinion, Uncle Kaige is a refined egoist."
Obviously, the relationship between her and Lin Kaige should not be good.
However, the Lin family is now focusing on cultivating Lin Zijin. Kaige did give his little niece a lot of support. Although Lin Zijin couldn't understand some of the other party's ways of doing things, at least on the surface the two sides were getting along.
"Compared with Lin Chaoyue?" Lin Ran asked again.
And when Lin Chaoyue's name came out of Lin Ran's mouth, Lin Zijin's expression was not helpless, but very obvious disgust.
"Uncle, you have to stay away from him." Lin Zijin warned in a low voice, "Lin Chaoyue is a madman."
Lin Ran smiled faintly: "Okay, I just wanted to see what it would be like if he went crazy."
Lin Zijin shook his head slightly: "Actually, I went too far in class that day."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because the Lin family definitely doesn't want to see me getting too close to you." Lin Zijin said seriously, "With the way those people behave, this will bring you some bad experiences."
"I understand what you are thinking." Lin Ran shook his head and smiled: "But don't worry, the Lin family should not cause trouble for me if they have any sense."
"Well." Lin Zijin stared at Lin Ran and said seriously: "Uncle, just be more careful. In short...it's really good to see you again."
"By the way, there is one more thing I have to ask you about." Lin Ran suddenly thought of what Lin Kaige said that morning and said, "Whose hands is my father's famous weapon now?"
"Uncle, are you talking about the Flame-Slashing Sword?" Lin Zijin said.
After all, the era when Lin Qingyu became famous was quite far away from Lin Zijin, and she probably had never seen that knife.
"Yes, it's Zhan Yan." Lin Ran said.
When he said this name, his eyes had become much deeper.
In fact, he said he didn't want the knife, but he didn't think so in his heart.
After finally coming back, Lin Ran wanted to get back a lot of things related to his father, so he might as well keep them in mind.
Seeing Lin Ran's gaze, Lin Zijin immediately understood his uncle's thoughts.
"Uncle, in fact, if I could, I would definitely have helped you get that knife back." Lin Zijin said, "It's just that the knife has always been in Lin Qingcang's hand."
It seems that Lin Zijin calls everyone in the Lin family by their first names.
She doesn't seem to have a deep affection for this family.
Lin Qingcang and Lin Zijin's fathers are cousins, and they both belong to a large family. However, according to seniority, Lin Zijin has to call Lin Qingcang grandpa.
However, there was not much respect at all from her mouth.
"In Lin Qingcang's hand?"
After hearing this, Lin Ran's eyes instantly narrowed!
He said coldly: "Did Lin Kaige deliberately ask me to have a direct conflict with his father? What does he want to get from it?"
