As night falls, the stars are dotted in the deep blue sky.
At seven o'clock, in the Zidong Villa located in the southeast of Jiangcheng, colorful luxury cars flashed with a noble aura and drove slowly and orderly into the basement under the command of uniformed soldiers.
"Brothers, there are a lot of people today, please pay more attention."
"I understand, Captain."
Because they were notified in advance, as guards, they knew that these people had the same destination, which was to go to the Lin family to attend the 70th birthday of General Lin.
Although Old General Lin is over seventy years old, for a warrior with strong strength and strong blood, he is still in his prime at this age.
The veteran general has spent his entire life in the military. He joined the army at the age of twenty. After fifty years of military career, he is still active in the military today. He is one of the 37 major generals in Jiangcheng and serves as the deputy commander of the Jiangcheng Guard Army.
They also respect this old General Lin as a soldier.
Although he is not a soldier of General Lin, it is well known that General Lin is not only fearless of life and death, but also protects his family and country, and is famous for his strict tutoring.
To his family, he not only meant what he said, but he was even a little unreasonable.
Old General Lin once said that none of his children or descendants are allowed to seek benefits in his name.
If someone commits a principled mistake, no matter who he is or how favored he is, he will be severely punished. In serious cases, he will be kicked out of the family.
Last year, General Lin broke a leg of his seventh son, kicked him out of the house, and publicly announced that he was severing the relationship between father and son.
Perhaps it was this kind of upbringing that caused General Lin's children to be in awe and even fear of their father. However, each of them was very promising. Many of them were active in both the military and political circles, and many of them held important positions.
There are also some people who are engaged in business and have achieved good results.
In Jiangcheng, although the Lin family cannot be compared with top families, it is not comparable to ordinary families.
Now I heard that General Lin was celebrating his birthday, and everyone who received the news came to congratulate him with gifts.
People who come to celebrate birthdays are either rich or noble, and their purposes are different.
Some of them are to develop contacts. After all, many important people in Jiangcheng will come to celebrate their birthdays today. Of course, some of them are personal relationships, and some of them admire General Lin's character and simply come to celebrate his birthday.
"Mr. Zhang, you are here, please come in quickly. My dad has been talking about you recently."
"It's your father's birthday. No matter how far away I am, I have to come here. Why are you so fat again? Even if you don't practice martial arts, you still have to be careful."
Outside the high-ceilinged foyer, the square door made of limestone has clear corners and is majestic and majestic.
"Mr. Zhang is right. I am losing weight recently, but the effect is not good."
At the gate, Lin Anbang greets guests who come to celebrate his birthday from time to time.
As the eldest son of General Lin, Lin Anbang is forty-eight years old. He has obviously gained weight in middle age, and his belly looks like he is seven or eight months old.
Although people make fun of his figure from time to time, Lin Anbang is not angry and even laughs at himself with a smile on his face.
"Fifth sister won't come today?"
Although Lin Anbang was receiving guests, his eyes were always looking for the crowd.
"Brother, you are so brave today and dare to make your own decision. Are you really afraid that the old man will fall out directly?"
Lin Xinyuan, the third among the nine brothers and sisters, was a little worried about the eldest brother's behavior of killing him first without informing him.
You must know that with the old man's character, if you get angry, no matter how old you are or the father of several children, you will be beaten severely if caught.
That is not a simple lesson, but a serious lesson. If you are not careful, you may not be able to get out of bed for ten and a half days.
"That's right, Lao Lin, it's my birthday today, so don't be stupid." A middle-aged woman with a good face and a luxurious dress also advised.
Lin Anbang was a little unimpressed by the persuasion of his wife and third brother, and said: "I finally found the fifth sister, why are you saying such depressing words?"
"Besides, it's the old man's birthday today. There are so many guests. How could he fall out in front of his comrades and old leaders?"
Speaking of this, Lin Anbang straightened his collar and said confidently: "It's not an ordinary birthday for an old man. At most, the whole family can only have a meal. This birthday will only be held once in ten years. It's a shame to miss such a good opportunity."
It’s gone.”
"I said, why are you so active in the old man's birthday this year? You even invited all his old comrades and leaders over. It turned out to be this plan."
Lin Xinyuan suddenly realized something.
As for the fifth sister, he has not seen her for more than 20 years, so naturally he misses her very much.
"Dad, aren't you going to surprise me today? It won't be the fifth aunt, right?"
Next to Lin Anbang stood a short-haired boy about sixteen years old.
The boy was wearing a black sportswear, with a well-proportioned figure, red lips and white teeth, bright eyes, a hint of excitement and childishness, and a crooked lip that evoked a smirk from time to time. Overall, he was a handsome boy.
"That's not true. I found a boss for you. With him protecting you, you can let yourself go at Hongyun University." Lin Anbang touched his son's head, and it felt really good.
Lin Xiaofei was a little confused. He originally thought that if he was admitted to Hongyun University, his father would give him a car. How could he find a boss for him?
"Boss? Dad, why don't you find me a girlfriend to be more practical? Don't you know your son's strength? Who has the qualifications to protect me!"
Lin Xiaofei stretched out his index finger and shook it in front of Lin Anbang, saying proudly.
With his ninth-level physical training ability, he can refine demon spirits up to the eighth level. Even in Hongyun University, he is probably among the masters.
"Haha, although your boy's strength is good, he is still a little behind when it comes to real geniuses. Don't be so arrogant. I hope you still have the courage to say this when the time comes!" Lin Anbang said with some humor.
At this time, he was looking forward to his son's expression when he saw Lin Feng!
In fact, it was not that Lin Anbang was unaware of his father's temper. He dared to kill first and then show off, not only because of the presence of guests, but also because of Lin Feng.
Even if the father were to be angry with Fifth Sister again, he would probably not drive him away directly when faced with such a promising grandson.
In addition to missing his fifth sister, it is undeniable that he also has some selfish motives.
Just as he said to his son, Lin Anbang really wants to find a boss for his son.
As a father, Lin Anbang knows his son Lin Xiaofei very well.
Lin Xiaofei was able to get admitted to Hongyun University on his own, so he was naturally talented, but with his talent and strength, he was really not worthy of being ranked among the real talents of Hongyun University.
In addition, Lin Xiaofei's personality is a little out of touch and immature. As a father, he is actually very worried.
If he did not come from a military family, Lin Anbang would have hoped that his son would be admitted to Magic Star instead of Hongyun.
Among the three major hero academies, although Hongyun University ranks last in terms of reputation and overall strength, it does not mean that Hongyun's students are weaker.
Compared with the Great Wall and Magic Star, the only advantage of Hongyun University is that there are two different world space gates on the campus. As long as students are students, they can enter the different world at any time to adventure and hunt monsters.
It is precisely because of this that Hongyun's students are stronger in actual combat. Correspondingly, the casualty rate remains high, the highest among the three hero academies.
Although Lin Anbang does not practice martial arts, as a businessman he is well-informed.
After accidentally learning that Lin Feng was Wu Mei's child, he conducted an in-depth investigation into Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's relationship with Yun Kai and Dong Yunan in school is not a secret. In addition, the three of them were admitted to Hongyun University together. Any idiot knows that this is not a coincidence.
There is no doubt that if Lin Feng takes care of him, Lin Xiaofei can walk sideways at Hongyun University.
If you enter a different world and join Lin Feng in a team, your safety will be guaranteed and your strength will increase quickly.
Although the Lin family had a certain status in Jiangcheng, when they arrived at Hongyun University, they could not help Lin Xiaofei.
"real or fake?"
Lin Xiaofei was a little dissatisfied, but his father didn't look like he was cheating, so he didn't refute, he just muttered something.
"Brother, don't worry about Xiao Fei's surprise. How did you find Wu Mei? How is she doing in Beijing? How many children has she given birth to? Just tell me in advance, brother!"
Lin Xinyuan pressed Lin Anbang's belly and asked with a smile while it was shaking like waves.
"Snapped!"
Lin Anbang opened Lin Xinyuan's hand with his hand, looked around, and said angrily: "You should pay attention to your image in front of so many people. If the fifth sister comes today, you will naturally know. If you don't come, we will talk later."
After saying that, Lin Anbang still didn't find the fifth sister, and sighed in his heart.
If it hadn't been for an accident, he would have never known that Wu Mei was not in Shangjing, but in Jiangcheng, living in the same city as them, perhaps even meeting them at a certain corner.
"After all these years, are you still hiding from me on purpose?"
A thought flashed through Lin Anbang's mind.
Because he had looked for Fifth Sister more than once, but could never find her.
Because Wu Mei’s ID card information has never been registered, the consumption records of bank cards, as well as the social security and medical insurance that can be found, have stopped updating the consumption records. There is no display of the entry and exit records.
Obviously, if there was no accident, then Fifth Sister deliberately did not let them know her whereabouts.
And they didn't know much about the man who made Fifth Sister risk everything and give up everything to be together. They had only met him once, and they only knew that he was in Shangjing and that he was a son of a big family, but they didn't know his specific identity.
It wasn't until a month ago that he discovered Wu Mei because of Lin Feng. Unexpectedly, in order to avoid them, she even changed her name.
Instead of calling her Lin Zhifeng, she changed her name to Lin Fang.
And the man who made her desperate before apparently abandoned her and her children.
Only then did Lin Anbang understand why the fifth sister had been avoiding them all these years and did not dare to go home.
"Brother, let's go."
Seeing that there were no guests and the birthday banquet was about to begin, Lin Xinyuan advised.
"Hey, you go in first, I'll wait!"
Lin Anbang was still a little unwilling to give up. He waited for a while by himself, until his father's angry voice came from afar, and then he walked into the villa unwillingly.
He did not notice that not far away, two figures were slowly approaching.
