After the wrong flirtation, the president lost control

Lin Group.

Lin Tianhao's hand holding the phone couldn't stop shaking.

"I have said all I can say. Mr. Lin, please take care of it." The man's voice on the phone was low and hoarse, like a demon.

After he finished speaking, the phone started to busy. To Lin Tianhao, the beep was like a warning from hell.

Lin Tianhao put down the phone, frowned, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open and Lin Xiao walked in.

"Dad, please sign this document. The funds from Tianhai Group have arrived."

"Well."

Lin Tianhao absentmindedly wrote his name on the document, beads of sweat the size of beans creeping up his forehead.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Lin Xiao seemed to see that something was wrong with Lin Tianhao.

"It's okay." Lin Tianhao closed the file and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "How much is the funding gap?"

"50%."

Lin Xiao was about to stride out of the office when he was stopped by Lin Tianhao again.

"Lin Xiao, do you like Tongtong?"

Lin Xiao remained silent, and his hand on the door handle paused.

"Since you like her and she liked you before, if you get married, wouldn't that make everyone happy? Do you still need to worry about the funding gap?"

Lin Xiao turned around: "Dad, do you know when Tongtong's birthday is?"

Lin Tianhao was speechless for a moment, looking a little embarrassed.

"Dad, Uncle Xiao entrusted Tongtong to us. Tongtong has lived in our house for seven years. When has she ever celebrated her birthday? Even her pocket money must be earned from her own part-time job or from Lawyer Wang, right?"

"When she turned 18, she finally got the property that Uncle Xiao entrusted to Lawyer Wang. It originally belonged to her. Do you want it too?"

"Dad, this is for your own good..."

"Don't do this for my own good. I deserve it." Lin Xiao said and walked out of the office.

Looking at his son's back as he left, Lin Tianhao swallowed the words he had not said.

Not only because Xiao Tongyu has money, but also because...

Her life story is not simple.

……

Back in his office, Lin Xiao thought more and more that something was wrong with Lin Tianhao.

Before pushing the door open, he vaguely saw from the window that Lin Tianhao was answering a phone call with an extremely panicked look on his face.

So, he dialed the internal line to the front desk and said, "Xiao Wu, give me the caller ID of the call that just happened in the chairman's office."

"Vice President Lin, that call was an Internet call. The caller hid his IP address, so it can't be seen."

So mysterious? Who is the caller?

"okay, got it."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao fell into deep thought. He felt that his father Lin Tianhao and mother Yuan Qing must be hiding something from him.

He opened his cell phone and found the grave address of Xiao Tongyu's parents that he had asked Lin Tianhao about before.

The date of their death should be very recent. Lin Xiao remembered that it was the day when his monthly exam results came out. He was always the first in the exam, so he was not happy when he made a mistake. After school, Lin Tianhao took him directly to the police station and said that Xiao Tongyu would live in their house from now on.

He was simply seething with rage.

Although he grew up with Xiao Tongyu, Lin Xiao's impression of her was just that silly girl who loved to laugh, was annoying, and liked to chase after him.

Perhaps because of the rebelliousness of adolescence, he flew into a rage at the police station and was unwilling to let Xiao Tongyu return to his home.

Finally he slammed the door and walked out. Lin Tianhao and Yuan Qing could only send him home, leaving Xiao Tongyu alone in the corner crying and shaking.

Lin Xiao raised his hand to check the time. There was nothing to do this afternoon, so why not go see Uncle Xiao and the others?

……

In the afternoon, Xiao Tongyu took half a day off and drove to the cemetery halfway up the mountain in the imperial capital.

She made an appointment with Wang Kejin and Xu Zhen to come together to worship their parents today.

When Xiao Tongyu arrived at the cemetery, Wang Kejin and Xu Zhen had already arrived. They were placing fruits and pastries in front of the tomb.

"Uncle Wang, Aunt Xu." She greeted with a smile.

"Tongtong is here! Oh, let Aunt Xu see you, you are getting more and more beautiful." Xu Zhen took her hand lovingly.

When Xiao Ming and his wife were still alive, Xu Zhen didn't have much contact with the Xiao family. After the car accident, Wang Kejin kept talking about Xiao Tongyu, the poor child, in his wife's ear, and Xu Zhen gradually became familiar with her.

Now that her daughter has married far away, she treats Xiao Tongyu as her own daughter.

"Aunt Xu, you're laughing at me again!"

As Xiao Tongyu spoke, he placed the flowers and offerings he brought in front of his parents' grave.

After finishing everything, she slowly knelt down.

Although I just came here not long ago, every time I come, my heart always sinks a little more.

Her long, fine eyelashes trembled slightly, and the pain between her brows was fully revealed, revealing a bit of sadness and loneliness.

Wang Kejin pulled his wife aside and said, "Let Tongtong talk to Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao."

Xu Zhen nodded, looked at Xiao Tongyu's thin back with heartache, and followed her husband to the side.

"Old Wang," she couldn't help but whispered, "Mr. Xiao's case hasn't been fully investigated yet?"

"No, but as long as we don't give up, we can always find out." Wang Kejin paused and continued, "In fact, Captain Liu and I both have suspects."

Xu Zhen took a breath and said, "Who is it?"

"Lin."

The cemetery was quiet in the late autumn afternoon. The mist was floating softly in the air like white gauze. The only sounds were the rustling of leaves in the wind and the crows calling high in the sky.

As soon as Wang Kejin finished speaking, a deep male voice came from behind him.

"What did you say?"

Wang Kejin and Xu Zhen looked back in horror and saw Lin Xiao holding a bouquet of flowers, standing less than a few feet away from them.

He strode forward and stared at Wang Kejin: "Lawyer Wang, what did you just say?"

A moment of panic flashed across Wang Kejin's face, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Nothing. Lin Xiao, what brings you here?"

Wang Kejin thought that today was not the anniversary of Xiao Ming and his wife's death. Lin Xiao probably did not choose this day to come here just to meet Xiao Tongyu by chance. He just happened to run into them.

Lin Xiao frowned, his nails digging deep into his flesh as he clenched his fists.

"Lawyer Wang, I'm sorry I overheard your conversation just now. Did you mention our family?"

Wang Kejin said calmly, "Ah, you heard wrongly. My wife and I were not talking about you."

Lin Xiao was about to ask more when he saw Xiao Tongyu walking towards him from a distance.

She walked gracefully with light steps, her pretty face showing confusion and a bit unhappy.

"Lin Xiao, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see Uncle Xiao and Aunt Li."

"Yeah." Xiao Tongyu didn't say another word.

Regardless of whether Lin Xiao came here voluntarily or for some other purpose, the fact was that he came to pay homage to his parents, and she couldn't just drive him away in front of his parents' grave.

Lin Xiao put down the flowers and bowed three times towards the tombstone.

"Thank you, Lin Xiao." Xiao Tongyu said softly.

"fine."

Lin Xiao found it quite ironic that Xiao Tongyu, who used to chase him all day and say a hundred words in his ear every day, now only had polite words like "thank you" to him.

"Then Uncle Wang and Aunt Xu and I will leave first."

"it is good."

Xiao Tongyu didn't say a few more words to him. He turned around and left with Wang Kejin and Xu Zhen.

Looking at their backs as they left, a dark cloud-like haze gradually surged into Lin Xiao's heart.

Just now, he clearly heard Wang Kejin tell his wife that he and Captain Liu from the police station both felt that the Xiao family’s car accident was related to their family.

Thinking of Lin Tianhao's unusual reaction recently, Lin Xiao's lips gradually pursed into a straight line.
