Chapter 686: Chapter 0688: More Loss than Gain
No matter how Lin Dong interrogates him, Lin Zhang acts as if he can’t hear, curling his lips in disdain, as if he refuses to give in to death.
Lin Dong is truly close to being angered to death by Lin Zhang, right now he really wants to punch Lin Zhang’s teeth out.
But he can’t.
By the side, Jian Chunqiu doesn’t seem too emotional about Lin Zhang’s presence, he is only curious about Lin Dong’s speed just now. If he’s not mistaken, Lin Dong has now become an Ancient Martial Artist.
Chu Ge has taught him ancient martial arts... This was somewhat unexpected to him, he thought it was already surprising that he helped Huo Tianqian through ancient martial arts, but now there seems to be another, and Jian Chunqiu thought that he could start a martial arts school, building up his own forces. After all, having his own forces in the world of martial arts could provide him with some backbone.
But now was not the time for Jian Chunqiu and Chu Ge to discuss this.
He looks down at Lin Zhang and hears Chu Ge say to Lin Zhang: "You should be Lin Zhao’s father, right?"
Chu Ge asked.
Lin Zhang was stunned, his eyes clearly dodging, he wanted to deny, but the words of denial just couldn’t come out. In this world, what father doesn’t recognize his own son?
But if he admits that Lin Zhao is his son, then it implies he came to follow Chu Ge with a motive.
While Lin Zhang hesitates, he hears Chu Ge say: "Following me is useless. You should go to prison and see what your son has been doing."
Upon hearing Chu Ge start to slander his son, that protective instinct immediately surged within him. He forcefully got up from the ground and, stiffening his neck, said to Chu Ge: "Whether my son is wrong or not, you shouldn’t use the power of the Nangong Family to have him locked up! Nothing he did constitutes a crime!"
Having such a doting father, it’s impossible for Lin Zhao to change!
Chu Ge suddenly starts to feel sad for Lin Zhao.
"Mr. Lin, the Nangong Family absolutely will not assist anyone in illegal activities." Suddenly, Nangong Man Sha calmly spoke up; she didn’t know Lin Zhang, but Nangong Yunhai did.
Nangong Yunhai’s main focus was at Heroic Technology; he would see Lin Zhang greet him willingly during his work commutes every day. He remembers, this person was a security guard at their company.
"You are our employee at Heroic Technology," Nangong Yunhai said confidently.
Lin Zhang pursed his lips, knowing that Nangong Yunhai recognized him, it was difficult to deny.
Eventually, he just nodded his head, "Yes, I am an employee of Heroic Technology, Young Master Yun Hai."
Nangong Yunhai coldly looked at him and said: "Your son, relying on your position in a company under the Nangong Family, has been boasting everywhere that he knows high-level executives of our Nangong Family, using our name to bully the common people everywhere. We, the Nangong Family, didn’t target you, and yet now you’ve come back to start having issues with us."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhang felt rather weak. He was hoping to take this opportunity to take revenge on Chu Ge, but after all, the Third Old Master Nangong is not as dedicated as Nangong Man Sha and Nangong Yunhai to the company. So, seeing Nangong Yunhai in person, he felt a bit hesitant.
With an awkward expression, he said to Nangong Yunhai: "Young Master Yun Hai, it’s really a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding. I just wanted to take revenge on Chu Ge a bit, I didn’t really intend to do anything to him. My son was put away by him, and now my wife at home is truly heartbroken. I was just so angry and had nowhere to vent, so I came to follow Chu Ge."
The words Lin Zhang said, even Nangong Yunhai didn’t believe them, but now in front of Chu Ge, he had to first see what Chu Ge thought. noveldrama
He glanced sideways at Chu Ge, his eyes seemingly inquiring.
Chu Ge didn’t believe Lin Zhang’s words either; if he was truly dissatisfied with everything he had done to his son, he could have directly taken revenge, why would there be a need to keep following him?
Paying attention to his movements shouldn’t be his main purpose.
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly and pondered for a while, unable to specifically guess what Lin Zhang was planning.
If Lin Zhang were handed over to the police directly, they wouldn’t have sufficient evidence to press charges, but just letting him off seemed too lenient in his eyes.
"Forget it, even if he is tracking you, what can he do to you?" Jian Chunqiu couldn’t help but interject from the side. He’s just an ordinary person; Chu Ge could crush him easily with a flick of his finger, so why bother competing with him?
Chu Ge gave a light cough and glanced sideways at Jian Chunqiu, his look seemingly reproachful for not speaking up for him.
Jian Chunqiu expressed his innocence, shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands, "Fine, I’ll keep quiet."
Man Sha also spoke up from the side, "If we report him directly to the police, they can’t penalize him because we have no evidence, but letting him off is too easy."
Nangong Yunhai also chimed in from the side, "With the way he is, can he even withstand a beating?"
Chu Ge looked at Lin Zhang, covered in bruises, a grimace if ever there was one, and slightly curled the corner of his lips. Finally, he said, "Forget it, if I catch you tracking me again, I won’t let you off so easily next time. You should ask your son about what he did to me; he deserves the punishment he received today."
Having said that, Chu Ge waved his hand at Lin Zhang, signaling for him to leave.
Lin Zhang could only forcibly swallow his anger. Unwillingly, he took one deep look at Chu Ge, then swiftly turned and got into his car, and drove away.
Once Lin Zhang had left, Chu Ge’s side resumed their busyness. Chu Ge wasn’t skilled at arranging furniture; all of it was directed by Man Sha, while he merely acted as manual labor.
Meanwhile, Lin Zhang made another call to Assistant Shang while driving home.
Receiving two calls from Lin Zhang in one day, Assistant Shang’s expression also soured.
"What is it this time?" Assistant Shang asked with a displeased tone over the phone.
Lin Zhang gave a wry smile and said, "Just now, while I was following Chu Ge, I unexpectedly came across Miss Man Sha and Young Master Yun Hai helping out in Chu Ge’s shop, and then..."
Lin Zhang hesitated for a moment.
"Then what?" Assistant Shang asked.
"Then they discovered me." The reason Lin Zhang called Assistant Shang was to inform him that Chu Ge had the support of Miss Man Sha and Young Master Yun Hai, and possibly even Old Master Nangong behind him—a person of significant power like Zhang Guan.
Lin Zhang was a clever person; he knew how to weigh the pros and cons. He was worried that if the Third Old Master did not keep his promise to release his son from prison and if he lost his job because he offended Miss Man Sha and Young Master Yun Hai, it would be a loss not worth the gain.
After hearing this, Assistant Shang sneered. Being an old fox who had been in the business for many years, he could clearly discern the subtext in Lin Zhang’s words, but he chose not to promise anything to Lin Zhang directly. He told Lin Zhang, "Don’t worry, I will convey your message to the Third Old Master."
