83 Pursuit of Justice

id a few words, and then left first."The wizard he asked definitely has problems, actually calling him here to our place looking for genuine artifacts again. This time it's an eight-sided glazed bronz...The car smoothly drove toward the bustling district. Looking out the window at the scenery, I felt a strange sense of...

If they were going to kidnap me, wouldn't they use a cheaper car than a Maybach And wouldn't they drive from the university town to the city center instead of the busiest business district

The car drove into a high-end office building in the CBD business district. My bodyguard and I were escorted into a private elevator by another bodyguard who was tasked with keeping Song Wei confined. The male bodyguard assigned to keep Song Wei under control was constantly being mocked and ridiculed by her all the way, but he didn't even twitch an eyebrow.

"Is this guy deaf..." Song Wei whispered, complaining.

Women with pure yang blood are generally tomboyish. Song Wei is a real tough cookie, a fearless woman who can keep on berating us as long as she can speak, regardless of our current situation.

"Just keep your mouth shut, alright We're being controlled right now. If we make them angry, it's us who gets hurt." I whispered.

Song Wei pouted and used her eyes to stab that man.

Upon arriving at the luxurious penthouse office, we were separated as soon as we stepped out of the elevator. A middle-aged man with glasses hurried over and smiled, "Ms. Mu has arrived, our young master has been waiting for a long time."

Assistant.

I snorted heavily. That Master Lin was indeed a scoundrel who repaid kindness with vengeance. I saved him, and the look in his eyes back then seemed like he wanted to pierce me through. Now he even has his bodyguard kidnap me!

"Please take Ms. Mu to the conference room for a moment's rest and be kind to her... This way, Ms. Mu." Assistant Fang politely bowed to me.

The entire office space is very grand, but lacks any human touch. It's cold and impersonal, filled with standardized decor. Mr. Lin's office is particularly exaggerated, even containing a miniature golf course inside.

He sat behind the large desk, his face cold and his eyes glinting menacingly.

Fang's assistant led me in and then left, the entire spacious office now occupied only by him and me, sizing each other up.

His gaze swept over me from head to toe, finally settling on my hand. I clutched the strap of my bag tightly, feeling very uncomfortable.

My attire is completely out of place in this office, while he sits there exuding an aura of "I am nobility."

"Miss Mu," he suddenly spoke, making me jump.

He pointed to the chair. "Please sit down."

I sat down silently, not knowing what he wanted from me.

He took out a stack of files from the drawer and said simply, "I've looked into your family situation. It turns out you really are a daughter of a yin-yang family. I was overly nervous yesterday and offended you. I'm sorry."

They're investigating me again! How can these rich people see everyone as an enemy, constantly investigating other people's family situations!

I grunted in displeasure. "No need to apologize, nobility doesn't apologize."

He wore an emotionless expression, ignoring my feelings, and continued, “Yesterday you woke me up with that method. I want to hear what happened. Did you see anything”

"Master Lin, if you don't believe in yin and yang and ghosts, it's best not to ask. Consider my words yesterday as me minding none of your business." I shook my head.

"You don't want to say, is it because of my attitude, or because of the money" He clasped his hands on the desk and said seriously: "If it's because of my attitude, I apologize. Some things happened around me, I can't help but be wary of strangers... That day you were too close to me and feeding me food, I was just overreacting."

"If it's because of money... Miss Mu, you can just name your price. I'll buy an hour of your conversation time. How much would that be"

I listened to his words in stunned silence, then couldn't help but laugh.

This guy, his values and thinking are completely different from mine, a normal person, right Did he grow up in the palace since he was little Money, money, money, he probably thinks you can buy anything in this world with it.

"Mr. Lin, I'm not a psychologist or a lawyer, and talking to me doesn't cost anything." I replied politely: "But our circle values fate - that is, opportunity and destiny. Your attitude diminishes my interest in speaking with you. There isn't much I want to say to you."

I stood up and looked at his sinister face: "You're so rich, you can afford to hire a master to help you solve your problems. The more famous the master, the more expensive they are. For money, they can talk to you for days and nights. You can ask about anything... I'm leaving now, my family will be worried."

The office is too big, I hadn't even reached the door when he stood up and chased after me two steps.

“Miss Mu, I’m sorry, I’m not very good at socializing and may have offended you. You helped me yesterday, you must be a kind person with a warm heart. I hope you can explain the situation to me then, of course, I am prepared to repay you.” Young Master Lin said with a frown.

That sounds a little better. I, with a touch of tsundere, nodded slightly: "No need to repay us, you didn't invite us in the first place. We just meddled in things that didn't concern us. We couldn't bear to see someone getting hurt under our noses."

When he heard the word "ghost," his eyebrows furrowed visibly. He walked over, gestured for me to sit on the sofa, and took a seat opposite me.

“My body has always been very healthy, but recently I often feel unwell. Sometimes I get cold and shiver, or sometimes I feel dizzy and have blurry vision. My personal doctor said I was overworking and needed a rest… It’s really laughable. Besides attending meetings, signing documents, and giving orders, someone else handles everything for me every day. How could I possibly be overworked”

Well, he seems to be pretty self-aware… I silently gave him a thumbs up for that.

"...Yesterday, this feeling of discomfort was especially pronounced. So when you woke me up, my first reaction was to suspect you—the doctors hadn't been able to figure out what was wrong before. Why could you, a young woman, cure the ailment Because of that, I was quite rude and immediately had people investigate to make sure there was nothing amiss about you. Only after confirming there was nothing wrong did I ask you to come here."

I rolled my eyes internally. "Ask" me It's practically kidnapping.

I’m too lazy to correct his worldview problems anymore, so I just said, “Yesterday I saw a dark shadow on you, sucking your vital energy. My brother and I drove that thing away, and then I used rice grains and incantations to remove the evil energy between your brows. Boss Zhong coincidentally ordered me a pot of ten-complete nourishing soup, so I fed you some, replenishing your qi and blood. Who knew I’d still be misunderstood as harming you Hmph...I don’t even know who you are, why would I harm you”

He paused, a smirk playing on his lips: "You don't know who I am"

"Nonsense, who knows who you are I only knew your last name was Lin because Mr. Zhong called you Young Master Lin!"

His gloomy expression eased slightly as he smiled and said, “My apologies, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lin Yanhuan… I wonder if Miss Mu would be willing to lend a hand, and what your fee would be I heard that the Hou family paid five million in compensation before. Would you be willing to work at that rate”

"Ask me to help" I nervously asked, "What do you want to do"

He chuckled lightly, a glint of ruthlessness in his eyes, as he slowly said, “I want Miss Mu to... hunt me down.”opped speaking and tapped me lightly on the body with her hand. My clothes changed to resemble theirs, even more elaborate and heavier!I carried my trailing cloak and asked, "Mengpo Grandmother, what...
