Chapter 309: Lin Jin

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“The Lins have truly sunk their tendrils into every crevice they could find.” Lu Zhao’s gaze was icy as he regarded the woman before him. “I warned you, didn’t I? If you behaved, I would have considered returning the Lin family’s assets to you. Nonetheless, you continually attempt to meddle.”

Lin Jin trembled. She seemed to have lost the use of her voice. She shook her head frantically.

Before Lu Zhao arrived, she still had not heard anything from her cronies. How did he find out? Was he already aware of her schemes?

“The marriage pact’s dissolution will be officially announced today.” Lu Zhao sneered. “Join your pawns and brothers on Neverland Island.”

“No, no!” Lin Jin reached for Lu Zhao’s sleeve in a panic and was subsequently thrown to the floor. Her tears came streaming out of her eyes. “Do you plan on going to war with Old Master Lu? I can behave! I will be obedient this time! I won’t go after Luo Ying again! I beg you, please do not cancel it!”

Why? What went wrong? Lin Jin did not even have time to examine what had gone wrong.

“I have nothing to fear from that old man, and I most certainly don’t need you.” Lu Zhao ignored her cries and turned to leave the room.

“Stop! Lu Zhao, please wait!” Sirius stood in her way. She stared at the man in front of her. “Don’t touch me, don’t touch me! Old Master Lu has designated me as his-”

“Old Master Lu?” Sirius cut her off with a mocking snort. “I guess we’re indebted to you for that. Because of your flawed plan, we were able to learn about Lin Mu. He’s more sensible than you and immeasurably more valuable. He’s never stopped squawking ever since. As for the old man? He is too busy dealing with the investigation of tax evasion. He has no control over the stock transfer, let alone the wedding.”

“What? Old Master Lu…” Lin Jin shook her head in utter disbelief. The influence of Old Master Lu was monumental. It was impossible! How could Lu Zhao possibly beat him, much less in a single day?!

Sirius did not have time to explain, so he had his men drag her away.

His subordinates swarmed over and methodically combed through the data Lin Jin left behind.

Having finished his business with Lin Jin, he hurriedly descended the stairs. He still needed to fetch Lu Zhao to the hospital to see Luo Ying. That man was still very anxious despite knowing that Luo Ying was putting on an act.

He now realized how deeply personal Lu Zhao’s concern for Luo Ying ran.

Multiple pieces of news simultaneously went viral on the web. [The former chairman of the Luya Group is under scrutiny.]

[The nuptials between Lu and Lin have been called off.]

[That crew never sleeps! Luo Ying has been taken to the hospital due to an allergic reaction!]

People on the internet were surprised to see several trending searches appear all at once.

[Why do these seemingly unrelated search terms feel so ominous when they show up together?]

[As soon as Luo Ying was admitted to the hospital, Lu Zhao made the decision to call off the wedding.]

[It is a big deal, so the marriage official has been trying very hard to keep the news quiet. That woman is bad news for you, Mr. Lu!]

[Who remembers hearing about Du Tian conniving with some wealthy heir of the second or third generation? Just a second ago, she dragged Luo Ying out to create drama, suggesting that the relationship between Luo Ying and Lu Zhao was still ambiguous despite their engagement. The very next second, Lu Zhao called off the wedding. Typical of your Sister Ying, I suppose.]

[Do not try to fool me, Luo Ying fans. The only possible motivation for this union is financial. Lu Zhao’s decision to call off the wedding likely played a role in the investigation into the old man. It is just too far-fetched to think it has anything to do with Luo Ying!]

[Those of you who support Luo Ying, aren’t you the ones who clumsily linked two unrelated events? Didn’t Lu Zhao say he and Luo Ying were no longer engaged? He did not even bother to see Luo Ying in the hospital. What kind of love is this?]

[Forget about the marriage. I just want to know what became of the former chairman.]

[If I am not mistaken, he happens to be Lu Zhao’s grandfather. It’s a power struggle within the family.]

Before the internet trolls could finish their argument, a news organization hastily uploaded yet another image.

A fresh conversation starter was developing: [Lu Zhao Visits Luo Ying.] A photograph showed Lu Zhao checking into a hospital.

Luo Ying’s fans immediately stood at attention and raised their heads high..
