System [I am in a horror dungeon]

The two looked at each other and smiled. Chu Linxian continued, "I can do anything about placing people and investigating, but the premise is that you are not allowed to interfere in my affairs in the future."

Lin Yi looked at her, picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea, then said slowly: "Why should I agree to you? After all, marriage is the fastest and least expensive way."

"Then let me tell you, neither I nor Lin Chen can become the marriage partner." Chu Lingxian said and left, regardless of how ugly Lin Yi's face was.

Lin Yi sat in the study for a long time, looking at the photo of the three of them on the table, muttering to himself: "Xuan Ning, Yuan Yuan and you have similar personalities. I am getting old too, and the young eagle has changed its wings. It's time to fly high."

After Chu Lingxian came out, the visitor Lu Nanyang went upstairs with a bad look on his face.

Back in the room, Chu Linxian rested his head on Lu Nanyin's neck. Lu Nanyang patted his back and asked softly, "Did you have an unpleasant chat with him? It's okay. You should... not cry, right?"

Chu Lingxian said in a muffled voice, "I didn't cry, I just almost had a quarrel. I got carried away. I feel much better now."

Chu Lingxian hugged Lu Nanyin tightly, "Don't worry, I'm not Shen Lishu, I won't go to the marriage, and I won't send Lin Chen to the marriage."

Hearing Lin Chen, Lu Nanyin was surprised: "Don't you care about this brother?"

"I don't care, but we have the upper hand. Why should we send someone to them? They should send someone over."

Lu Nanyin smiled and joked, "Sending someone to you, right?"

Chu Lingxian gently pinched the soft flesh on Lu Nanyin's waist, "What are you talking about? How is that possible? I don't want it even if you give it to me. I only want you."

The two were chatting and laughing in the room, while Lin Chen was called to the study by Lin Yi.

Lin Chen lowered his head, listening to Lin Yi's words, his heart growing colder and colder.

Lin Yi told him, "Xiao Chen, Yuanyuan just told me that she won't let either of you become the target of marriage. Do you think it's possible?"

Lin Chen was slightly stunned, feeling somewhat incredulous. What did Lin Yuan mean by this? Wasn't the marriage ultimately decided by my father? I could understand that you had the ability to not go through with the marriage, but did you have a way to prevent me from becoming the target of the marriage? What good would this do?

Lin Yi looked at her unpredictable face and knew what he was thinking. He smiled and continued, "She said that we have the upper hand and they should be busy trying to curry favor with our family. What do you think?"

"I... don't quite understand these things. Everything is up to my father." Lin Chen felt that what Lin Yuan said made sense, but he didn't dare to say whatever he thought like Lin Yuan.

Lin Yi frowned slightly, waved his hand, and asked Lin Chen to go out.

After closing the door, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Every time he went to the study to talk to his father, he held his breath, fearing that he would say something wrong and upset his father. Looking at the location of Lin Yuan's room upstairs, his "sister" was different. She said whatever she wanted to say, and didn't care whether his father was happy or not.

Lin Chen went upstairs dejectedly and heard some noise in Lin Yuan's room. Curiosity drove him to the door, put his ear against it, and listened to the conversation between the two.

Lu Nanyin: "Lin Yuan, do you think your father will really send your brother to marry?"

Chu Lingxian: "No, even if he really wants to send it, he has to get through this stage first."

Lu Nanyin: "Why?"

Chu Lingxian: "Do you know how his mother married into the Lin family?"

Lu Nanyin: "I don't know?"

Chu Lingxian: "People say that the Qin family and the Lin family got married through an alliance, but the truth is..."

Lu Nanyin: "What's the truth? Please tell me, it's really suspenseful."

Chu Lingxian: "The truth is that Qin Wei and Qin You drugged Qin Zhi and locked them in the same room, which led to their relationship. At that time, Qin Zhi also had her own lover, but she was used as a tool by her father and brother Dang Chen to arrange a marriage, so she married into the Lin family. Not only was she separated from her lover, but she was also monitored by the Qin family all the time, doing this and that to seek benefits for the Qin family. She is also a pitiful person."

……

Lin Chen couldn't hear what the two people behind were saying. Now he knew why his mother married into his family and why his grandfather and uncle were so resistant to him. So that's how it was!

Lin Chen returned to his room in a daze, without turning on the light, and just sat on the bed.

Chu Lingxian noticed that the person at the door had left, and signaled Lu Nanyin not to say anything more.

"he's gone?"

Chu Lingxian nodded and said, "Let's go."

Lu Nanyin let out a long sigh and fell on the bed. "It's not easy, but are the things you just said true?"

"It's true. There's not a single falsehood in it."

Lu Nanyang couldn't help sighing, "It's all because of his wicked father and brother. For the sake of profit, they actually sold their own daughter and sister."

Chu Lingxian touched her head and helped her calm down, "Okay, don't be angry. Anger will cause wrinkles!"

Lu Nanyin smiled and slapped her hand away, "What?"

After playing for a while, they turned off the lights and fell asleep in each other's arms.

Lin Chen sat there until dawn, watching the light gradually rise outside, and then he realized that a whole night had passed.

Qin Zhi looked at the message sent by his father on the phone, "Use the marriage to alienate the father and daughter of the Lin family, and let Chen'er work in the Lin family's company."

I threw my phone aside in annoyance, laughed at myself, and stayed awake all night.

Lin Yi sat in the study all night, thinking about Lin Yuan's words and considering the feasibility of the matter.

……

During breakfast, except for Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin, the other three were not in good condition, with dark circles under their eyes.

Lu Nanyin looked at this and that curiously, wondering what the three of them had done last night to why they looked like this so early in the morning.

Chu Lingxian served Lu Nanyin a bowl of porridge and found it a little funny to see her looking at this and that.

Lu Nanyin turned her head and met Chu Lingxian's gaze, her eyes threatening, "Don't laugh! Is it really that funny? Really."

After dinner, Lin Yi went to the company.

Lu Nanyin saw Lin Chen following Qin Zhi upstairs and pulled Chu Lingxian's sleeve. "Do you think they can talk it out?"

"It's better to talk it out, otherwise things will be a bit difficult for us later. Let's go and test Shen Lishu's attitude. Her attitude will determine whether we choose A or B." Chu Lingxian took Lu Nanyin's hand and walked out of the house.

In the car, Lu Nanyin tried to get Su Wanru to talk again, but she was more cautious than before and didn't get any useful clues.

"I don't think she will cooperate with us." Lu Nanyin said to Chu Lingxian as she looked at the dialog box that had no news yet.

"It doesn't matter. We didn't really expect her to agree to us."

"Ok."
