C453 Death of Lin Baye

Everyone was shocked as the entire hall instantly quieted down. One needle dropping could be heard clearly.

No one could believe their own ears!

Two thousand dollars in living expenses?

He was trying to get rid of the beggar!

Two thousand yuan wouldn't even buy a eyeliner!

2,000 yuan was more than enough for him to spend in a nightclub!

Two thousand yuan a month. How could he live? Wasn't he clearly forcing himself to take out his own private money to live?

He had gone too far!

The old tutor had given his authority to this young woman who had just returned home?

Those from Lin Piaobo's generation, all revealed expressions of impossible, unyielding, and unacceptance. However, they also knew that this was not the time for them to step out, as each and every one of them had their heads lowered and had shifty eyes averted, not showing it. Instead, they were using their peripheral vision to glance at others.

In addition, they were all proud and arrogant. The majority of them had returned from studying abroad and had even studied at a few doctorate levels, whether it be with actual skills or at a pheasant university, they were not convinced at all by Lin Ruochu, a "country bumpkin" who had not yet studied abroad.

"Why!"

"This isn't fair. Is she even worthy of it?"

"2,000 yuan, my dog's dog food is more than that! How am I supposed to live!"

"What rules!" I don't believe that Grandpa would let an outsider mess around like this! I'm going to find grandpa! "

"Right, I want to go look for Grandfather!"

Normally, compared to the rest of their generation, they were more favored by Lin Baye. Only now did he have the guts to do so, and he even received the approval of his own parents.

No one stopped them. Everyone looked at the two of them, wanting to use the two of them to test Lin Baye's attitude.

They rushed into the house.

Everyone held their breath as they stared, anticipating what would happen inside.

Soon, they did not need to wait any longer, because after two bangs, the two who had entered flew out horizontally. They were kicked flying backwards, falling on the ground in the middle of the hall, rolling a few times until they reached everyone's feet.

Their parents were right next to them, but their parents didn't immediately help them up. Instead, they raised their heads and looked inside.

Lin Ruochu was like an empress who ascended the throne, imposing and majestic, while Xiao Hei was a loyal bodyguard.

"What right do you have to hit my son!" A parent couldn't help but ask.

"That's because he should have!" Lin Piaobo walked out with a gloomy face.

"Ruozhu is the person designated by father as the head of the family. Anyone who is dissatisfied with this decision will be disobeying father's orders!" Lin Piaobo said.

"But …"

"What is it? You want to disobey your father's orders? " Lin Piaobo asked.

The man was speechless, and opened his mouth to swallow the rest of his words.

Lin Baye had built up his prestige in the Lin Family, not just these people dared to go against him.

No one dared to be unwilling or unwilling, and so they all lowered their heads.

Only Xu Qingmo slightly narrowed his eyes, as he felt that something was amiss.

"This isn't right, there must be something strange!" Xu Qingmo thought as he looked at the cold expression on the Lin Ruochu's face that was about to freeze into ice.

Although Lin Ruochu was cold, she was not this cold.

Something must have happened inside.

No matter what, from this moment onwards, Lin Ruochu took control of the entire Lin Family.

As everyone dispersed, there were also people who arranged residences for Lin Ruochu, Xu Qingmo and Xiao Hei.

Although Xu Qingmo didn't say anything about his relationship with Lin Ruochu, Lin Family had long treated Xu Qingmo as his boyfriend and future husband, and treated him with extreme respect.

Xu Qingmo peeked at Lin Ruochu and saw that she had no objections to this.

However, looking at Lin Ruochu's current expression, he was a little worried. It was not that Lin Ruochu did not care about her identity being misunderstood, but because she had something on her mind and did not care about it.

In the end, the Lin Family arranged a small courtyard for Lin Ruochu, Xu Qingmo and Xiao Hei. There were all kinds of facilities in the courtyard.

Two people and an ape walked in.

Just as Xu Qingmo wanted to speak to Lin Ruochu, he walked straight into a room and closed the door.

Xu Qingmo blocked the door, looked at Lin Ruochu, and asked: "Are you alright?"

"It's fine, I want to have a good rest." Lin Ruochu said.

Xu Qingmo nodded.

After Lin Ruochu closed the door, she immediately turned around and walked out of the small villa. She looked up and in the direction of the house, then jumped onto the wall and rushed to the back of the main hall.

Something must have definitely happened previously, but Lin Ruochu didn't want to say it out loud, so he didn't want to disturb her.

It was still not night, so the Lin Family's villa was filled with people walking around, some were members of the Lin Family, and some were babysitters and servants that they invited. However, Xu Qingmo was naturally not discovered by them, walking all the way in a concealed place without being discovered by anyone.

When they finally reached their destination, it was only a room that resembled a study. Presumably, Lin Baye was inside.

There were two other people standing guard outside like guards. They looked very tight.

Xu Qingmo stood on top of the wall, extended his hand and plucked a year's worth of leaves, then threw them far off into the distance. Like darts, the leaves shot straight out and nailed themselves onto the tree trunk, causing it to vibrate and shake violently.

However, they immediately came to their senses when they were halfway there. This was most likely a scheme to lure the tiger out of the mountain, and one of them immediately turned back.

The man returned to the door, checked the lock, and then turned to look at the other man.

Another person walked up to the tree, looked at the fallen leaves on the ground, then raised his head. He did not see anyone, so he returned.

"I'm a bit suspicious. Be careful, is the door alright?"

The two of them continued to stand guard, while Xu Qingmo, who was in the room, gently put down the iron wire in his hand and continued to study in large numbers.

The study was very big. Outside, there were two big cabinets, which were filled with books, all of them were world-famous books, Chinese ancient pearls, etc. There was a door inside, and Lin Baye should be inside.

What happened when Lin Ruochu saw Lin Baye yesterday?

Why did Lin Piaoyao and Lin Baye argue so intensely back then? Why did she run away from home?

All the answers were right in front of him. He just had to open the door.

Xu Qingmo pushed the door open and saw a portion of the answer.

Why was Lin Ruochu frozen like ice after she left yesterday? He knew.

However, he still did not understand what happened with Lin Piaoyao back then.

In the room, there was no Lin Baye like he had imagined, only a black and white photo frame. The picture showed a dignified old man with his brows furrowed, like a ravine, like a blade's scar, the blade was engraved on his forehead.

This was Lin Baye, the dead Lin Baye.

Xu Qingmo was at a loss, so that was how it was.

Lin Baye was already dead, but only Lin Piaobo himself knew of this. He had always sealed off the information, and the person who came up with this lie about Lin Baye being seriously ill was only able to call upon a person occasionally.

Because of Lin Baye's prestige, the people of Lin Family did not doubt him.

Once Lin Baye died, the Lin Family was indeed at the end of the line.

Lin Ruochu had only been here for a short ten minutes or so yesterday, and she had experienced a departure from life …

Xu Qingmo's heart suddenly tightened.

Unable to stay any longer, Xu Qingmo turned around and was about to leave. However, he saw an ancient key laid on the desk right there, emitting an ancient aura under the light of the lamp.

This key seemed to have traveled through time and space as it surfaced from the river of history and landed on the table of an old book that had stained the surface of the water with the passage of time.

Xu Qingmo extended his hand and picked it up. It was heavy, but he did not look at it too much.

There were still two guards outside, but since Xu Qingmo was inside, he did not need to enter through the door like he did before. He immediately opened the window, jumped out, and locked the door from the outside with a metal wire.

Stealthily come, stealthily go, take not a cloud away, take only a key.

Xu Qingmo returned to the small villa and saw that the door to Lin Ruochu's room was still lit up from the outside. He walked to the door and wanted to knock on it, but he found that the door was not closed.

Gently opening the door, Lin Ruochu sat down in front of the french window and looked outside through the curtains. Hearing Xu Qingmo enter, without turning his head, he sat down on the floor, curled up into a ball, and hugged his knees, staring blankly into space.

Xu Qingmo walked over and sat down beside her. After pausing for a moment, he slowly stretched out his hand and placed it on Pavilion Master Lin Ruochu's shoulder.

Lin Ruochu did not resist and took the opportunity to rest her head on Xu Qingmo's shoulder.

In Xu Qingmo's serious reflection on the window, Lin Ruochu who was beside him, started crying soundlessly.

At this moment, you are the only one with a reliable shoulder.

The two of them stared out of the window, silent and serene.

For the first time, Xu Qingmo experienced how close he was to Lin Ruochu.

Xu Qingmo also felt that Lin Ruochu was determined to revive the Lin Family.

If it was said that Lin Ruochu had agreed to return before, her main goal was to find out about the matter of her father's departure that year. As for the matter of reviving the family business, she was actually not very interested.

And Xu Qingmo, without a doubt, would forever become the toughest shield and sharpest spear behind Lin Ruochu.

The next day, as the sun rose in the east, Lin Ruochu woke up and walked out of the villa.
