Chapter 6 The road ahead is blocked!
When Lin Man told her to have her daughter explain, Yu Xian subconsciously turned her head to look, only to find that her daughter's expression was blank, her eyes wide open, as if she had seen something that terrified her.
Noticing this, Yu Xian stepped forward, standing between her daughter and Lin Man, glaring at her cousin:
"You can't write two 'Lin' characters in one stroke, what are you trying to do?"
"I don't want to do anything!" Lin Man looked around, got up and went to the kitchen, where he made himself a cup of hot tea. He then returned to the living room with the tea, standing before Yu Xian and her daughter.
"It's a very simple principle. My second uncle raised so much money and misappropriated so much of it. He couldn't possibly have spent it all."
"The factories in Hongxing Village need to maintain production and employment, and they need funds."
"Second Aunt, return all the remaining money that can be returned. We can't write two 'Lin' characters together, so returning it will make things easier for everyone."
"Of course, you can choose not to return it!"
After reiterating his request, Lin Man picked up the teacup with both hands and began to drink leisurely, as if this were not Lin Yaozu's home.
Yu Xian had only taken two sips of tea when she let out a soft chuckle:
"Your second uncle, Lin Yaozu, and I are divorced, but we still live together. For all these years, for his sake and for Xiaoya's sake, we have never told anyone about it."
"Now that he's in this situation, we should clarify things!"
"I'm not going to give you your money back!"
After gritting her teeth and finishing her sentence, Yu Xian pointed to the front door and said, "Please, Secretary Yu, go back to where you came from!"
"This is my home, you're not welcome here!"
The answer was unexpected yet predictable, which perfectly matched Lin Man's understanding of Yu Xian, his second aunt.
Having received a reply, he didn't intend to stay any longer. He finished the tea in his cup, put it down, and smiled at Yu Xian: "Second Aunt is great!"
"Since my second aunt has made her choice, I have no choice but to escalate the situation!"
"I hope you won't regret it later!"
Leaving behind his last two sentences, Lin Man smiled and left the sofa, humming a song as he went out the door.
Yu Xian watched him ride his electric bike and disappear into the intersection before turning back, cursing under her breath. As she turned, she noticed that her daughter's expression was rather strange.
Instead of asking a question, she walked over and slapped Lin Ya on the head.
"What are you thinking about? That brat just came in, and your expression was off. Did he call and yell at you?"
"No!" Lin Ya clutched her head and looked up, her eyes still filled with terror.
"Mom, it seems like Xiaoman's future is ruined because of Dad!"
"What do you mean?" Yu Xian turned around abruptly, her eyes full of confusion. After waiting for two seconds and receiving no response from her daughter, she began to scold again:
"You've become stupid from studying too much. You need to remember, a good man is one who can earn money. What's the use of just studying?"
The next second, Lin Ya was heard muttering to herself:
"According to Guangdong Province's standards for selecting and training civil servants, he should be receiving training in Guangzhou at this time!"
"Even if we are to go to the villages, we will have to wait until the training is completed and the probation period is over before we can go to the villages."
"But the fact that he went to the village before completing his training can only mean that there are special considerations for him, which may be to handle the affairs in the village well."
"If this isn't handled properly, his future will be ruined!"
After hearing the explanation, Yu Xian dismissed it dismissively, waved her hand, picked up the teacup Lin Man had drunk from on the table, and casually threw it into the trash can beside her: "What does that have to do with us?"
"Your father and I divorced a long time ago, and the house, car, savings, and you are all in my account."
"I've studied law for a few days too. Your father's crime has nothing to do with us!"
"As for Lin Man, he has even less to do with us. If he wants revenge, he can only take it out on your father."
"Alright, if you were as good at studying as him, I wouldn't have to worry about you so much."
"Pack your things, we're going to your grandpa's house in a bit. I feel like I can't stay here any longer!"
After saying a few words, Yu Xian slowly went upstairs to pack her luggage.
On the other side, Lin Man didn't rush home. Instead, he rode his electric bike around the village. Finally, he parked the bike on the Qinghe Bridge between Mojiatan and Linjiaba, and sat on the bridge railing, staring blankly at the villages on both sides of the bridge.
Hongxing Village is located at the mouth of the Qinghe River. There are three surnames in the village. The Lin family is concentrated in Linjiaba, east of the mouth of the Qinghe River. In addition to the Lin family, the Wei family also moved there later.
As for the area west of the estuary, there is Mojiatan, which is inhabited entirely by people with the surname Mo.
From Mojiatan, continue west along the coastal highway for about 20 kilometers, and you will see the Tuocheng Nuclear Power Plant. Continue west for another 20 kilometers, and you will reach Tuocheng City.
Heading east from Linjiaba along the coastal highway for about 70 kilometers, you will reach Xinhui City.
Looking at the houses on both sides, Lin Man couldn't help but shake his head. When he was a child, he was always curious as to why two families who were obviously enemies would be divided into one village.
As he grew older, he understood.
After enjoying the sea breeze for a while, he took out his phone, found Hao Chuan's phone number that he had added not long ago, and dialed it.
After the notification tone ended and Hao Chuan's voice came through, he immediately put on a smiling face and asked Hao Chuan, "Officer Hao, there's something I'd like to confirm with you. I wonder if you have a moment?"
"I'm free!" Hao Chuan's voice came from the other end of the phone, filled with barely concealed laughter, probably because he had finally resolved the security hazard in Hongxing Village and wouldn't be scolded by his superiors anymore.
Lin Man switched the phone from her left hand to her right and asked with a smile:
"I just went to find out about Lin Yaozu's wife, Yu Xian, and she said that she and Lin Yaozu divorced a long time ago."
"I want to know if the police have any information about this situation. If they don't, then I will apply for an investigation into the financial transactions between Lin Yaozu and Yu Xian, file for asset preservation, and restrict their exit from the country."
"Furthermore, the police need to seize, freeze, and detain Yu Xian's assets as soon as possible!"
After a few words, Hao Chuan's smile vanished on the other end of the phone. First, a gasp escaped his lips, followed by an apology:
"Um... we really weren't aware of that situation."
"Because his primary concern was suspected drug manufacturing, the anti-drug officers focused their efforts on drugs after taking him into custody, and they didn't even realize that he and his wife had already divorced."
"Later, when those financial problems were discovered, he voluntarily confessed that the problem stemmed from investment errors, and he wanted to earn extra money to cover the losses."
"But right now, everyone is still gathering evidence, and we haven't really noticed this point."
"Secretary Lin, I'll contact the bureau right now and have them apply to take Yu Xian into custody, and arrest him if necessary."
"Simultaneously apply for the seizure, freezing, and sealing of assets!"
