Chapter 1490: Getting Really Bold

Once he said such words, there was nothing else the Lin family could do.

They did want to try not to let Elder Lin’s corpse reach the crematorium and force Qiao Nan to compromise. The problem was that their waists were not as strong as the soldiers’ guns. Whoever was afraid first would lose first. Even if the people from the Lin family were unwilling, they could only temporarily agree to such an arrangement and settle Elder Lin’s and Old Master Zhai’s funeral.

Seeing that the two elderly were pushed into the furnace bit by bit, the four children cried uncontrollably. San Bao hugged Qiao Nan’s waist tightly and buried her face in her mom’s arms. She kept shouting for great-grandpa and master grandpa.

Da Bao’s and Er Bao’s feelings were more restrained. They only stood quietly by Qiao Nan’s side. However, they couldn’t seem to finish wiping away their tears. Very quickly, their faces were damp with tears. Only Xiao Bao was the youngest, so he cried the loudest. From the way he cried, nobody doubted that he had actually begun to understand the uncrossable distance between life and death.

At this moment, all of them, no matter adult or child, had lost weight. The adults, such as Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng, had to keep vigil and looked extremely haggard.

On this day, He Yi applied for leave and came over as well. He represented those colleagues who were stationed abroad to send Elder Lin off for the last time. They hoped that this elder who had given guidance and support to them would leave peacefully.

“Little junior, are you okay?” After Qiao Nan hugged Elder Lin’s ashes in her arms and personally placed them in the urn that they had bought earlier, He Yi asked with concern. “If master was still around, he wouldn’t want you to be like this. You still have three children who need you to take care of them. Master doted on them a lot. Now that he’s no longer around, you have to include his love for them as well.”

These three children were the treasures master and little junior had in common.

“I know.” She held San Bao’s and Xiao Bao’s hands and said in a hoarse voice, “I will try my best to recover my emotions. I understand master’s expectations for me. I’ll get my act together and definitely wouldn’t disappoint master.”

“Have you thought about what to do with the Lin family?” When master was still alive, he was always impatient with the Lin family. Even if he never lacked money, he never helped anyone from the Lin family out when someone encountered a major incident that needed money to be resolved.

He Yi had no comments as to whether his master’s approach was right or wrong. He Yi knew that things would be made difficult for Qiao Nan next. If Qiao Nan continued their master’s working style when he was alive, based on the Lin family’s temper, as long as they didn’t achieve their purpose for a day, she would never be able to fling them aside.

On the contrary, if Qiao Nan became softhearted, the Lin family would definitely turn into leeches and might even get Qiao Nan to provide for them for a lifetime. Furthermore, if Qiao Nan really became more lenient, it was inevitable that people would think that Qiao Nan didn’t respect Elder Lin, her master, enough. Elder Lin had just left, but Qiao Nan had forgotten Elder Lin’s character and did something against his wishes.

As such, it wasn’t easy to handle this matter. It seemed that no matter what she did, Qiao Nan would always be the one who was wrong.

He Yi understood it clearly only after this point that it wasn’t so easy to take what Elder Lin had left behind. The money could scald someone, especially since the people from the Lin family were scumbags.

“There’s nothing much to think about. I’ll do exactly what master had done before. It’s legitimate. At most, the people from the Lin family will just say a few words. They can’t obtain any benefits from me. If they really make me anxious, I don’t mind doing some things that would cause them a bleeding heart after they know about it.”

Didn’t the Lin family love money? It wasn’t that difficult to deal with such people.

“Tian Dong helped me find a fund trustee. I set aside ten million yuan from the things master left behind for me to help those old and lonely people in the society who don’t have any relatives by their side.”

He Yi’s eyes widened and he gave Qiao Nan a big thumbs-up. “Little junior, you’re formidable. No wonder master felt at ease to leave behind everything to you. Indeed, you have the ability to retain what master left behind for you.” If it was him, he wouldn’t be as competent as this little junior. After getting entangled by the Lin family, he would definitely let them obtain some of the benefits that they wanted so that they would leave temporarily.

“If they dare to force me, I can even do more formidable things. Aside from my master, the rest from the Lin family were unsuccessful in life, didn’t have the gift in studying, and were not hardworking. Only one or two of the so-called more capable ones are doing business.” It was good to do business!

If the people from the Lin family really made her feel anxious, she would dare to invest in their competitors to swallow the Lin family’s business whole. By then, the Lin family wouldn’t be able to do anything or play any tricks.

“Driving them to the corner?” Looking at the weak and gentle little junior, could she really be decisive and relentless when doing things?

Qiao Nan laughed coldly. “Today’s the day that master’s and the old master’s coffins were heading to the cemetery. They even dared to make trouble on such a day, disturbing the heroic souls of these two old men. Do you think there’s anything I dare not do?!” She could do ruthless things. Anyway, these weren’t breaking the law.

He Yi sighed. The Lin family went too overboard this time around.

If it were not for people from the central authority who appeared in time, Chief Zhai and their master might still be lying in their coffins, stuck in the military quad.

Thankfully, the Zhai family didn’t like to be in the limelight and had rejected all media participation and reports. Otherwise, with the Lin family causing trouble, even if the Zhai family was reasonable, they would still be subjected to a lot of unfounded malicious speculation and verbal abuse.

If they weren’t careful, the political opponents of the Zhai family would use this matter to smear the Zhai family’s reputation. The worse the matter got, the more unfavorable the situation would be for the Zhai family. Little junior’s situation in her parent-in-law’s home would be sadder and embarrassing.

“You have to handle this more carefully. If no one’s instigating anything, the people from the Lin family wouldn’t be so bold. Although it can be said that a bird dies for food while a man dies for money, they aren’t that bold all along.” Otherwise, seeing that their master had no other relatives by his side, the Lin family would have used their identity as relatives to forcefully manage their master’s everything. This wasn’t impossible.

The Lin family had become so bold suddenly. Who would believe that no one had instigated them?

“I have a rough idea of who did it.” Qiao Nan exhaled. In order to win against Brother Zhai, Peng Yu would really try all means and ways and wouldn’t let go of any opportunities. That was right as well. The Lin family was such a good piece of chess. Peng Yu was just taking advantage of this chance. It was already not bad that he didn’t activate every single one from the Lin family.
