don't recognize the person you're talking about..." Ma Zhuan's face showed a conflicted and fearful expression.Is he dressing up"Tsk tsk, it seems like I need to get my brother-in-law to use some extr...Lin Yan blinked, a sly smile playing on her lips. "Miss Mu, how about this You come to my room tonight and keep me company. You can also take a look at that bronze mirror. Professionals like you would be able to see the problem, right"

I have a feeling she's not really interested in the alcohol.

"...Ms. Lin, would it be convenient for you to provide your eight characters We can prepare in advance."

Lin Yanqin nodded and gave me a date.

As soon as she left, I immediately grabbed my phone and started calculating using a simple app. My brother, with a loaf of bread in his mouth, walked over and sat beside me.

What's that

"Let's calculate your birth chart."

"What's the point of even doing this"

I put down my phone and looked at him: "Brother, she's 25 this year! Can you believe it! Looking at her appearance and personality, I think she's only 15!"

My brother twitched the corner of his mouth: "What does this have to do with me"

"I see your lunar column is Ding Mao... Mao represents true love, but Ding Mao also signifies lustful peach blossoms... Brother, you're in a bit of danger, be careful, don't get tricked into bed by someone."

"She doesn't have anything to do with me, does she" My brother asked strangely. "What's her name"

"...Lin Yanqin, Lin Yanhua's younger sister, is probably her dear sister. She has the same style as opening her mouth and saying how much money she wants."

My brother raised an eyebrow and smiled, "That's easy. His older brother is a good guy, so the headlights definitely won't need to be compensated for."

"Yeah, compensation isn't necessary, but she wants us to go to her place tonight... for a sleepover."

"..."

...

We've been to the Lin family's grand mansion in this city several times, so we were pretty familiar with it. When Lin Yanhuan heard we were coming, he personally waited at home. As soon as we walked in, we saw about ten travel suitcases placed in the entryway.

“Sorry, my sister hasn't packed yet… She won't let anyone touch her personal belongings.” Lin Yanhuan frowned and looked at the suitcases. With his strict personality, he probably found it very annoying, right

He let out a long sigh and said, "Things have been really chaotic at home lately. My sister came here to hide out for a while."

I saw some fatigue between his brows and couldn't help but ask, "Is it because your home is troubled, or is something bad happening"

Lin Yanhuan chuckled lightly and shook her head, "I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing."

He sat in the master seat of the tea room, his hands resting on the armchair. With every gesture, he exuded an air of nobility. Those who had studied the Tao understood how to read a person's aura and complexion. Although Lin Yanhuan had a weary look between his brows, the wisdom and sharpness in his eyes seemed even deeper.

"Are you two interested in current events" he asked.

We all shook our heads, estimating that the news most unrelated to us in this world is current affairs and politics. We pay more attention to entertainment gossip.

Lin Yanhuan smiled faintly, her fingers crossed in front of her, and she said softly: "At the important meeting that ended not long ago, my father was appointed as... XXXX Vice Chairman."

He frowned, seeming not particularly pleased about it.

I'm a little confused, XXXX Vice Chairman, it sounds pretty impressive, right Getting promoted is a good thing, why does Lin Yanhuan have such a heavy expression

My brother nearly choked, he patted his chest and said, "That means, your father in the next election a few years later, could possibly become—"

Lin Yanhuan frowned: "Be careful what you say."

My brother's face was filled with terror as he blurted out, "So it's about becoming the Grand Elder, isn't it"

> Grand Elder

My brother, seeing that I didn't understand, leaned in close to my ear and whispered, "His father is most likely going to become the highest-ranking official in our country next term! Get it"

Got it. I nodded, truly terrifying.

I remember reading when I was young that Emperor Taizong once returned from the underworld. When the judge saw that he had died suddenly, he immediately added twenty years to his lifespan and sent him back to the yang world.

Power, no matter in heaven, on earth, or among humans, always comes with privilege.

“Because of this, our whole family had to go into hiding. Yanqin went abroad to study, but to prevent her from being assassinated or kidnapped and brainwashed by hostile forces, we immediately brought her back home. We turned in all her passports and green cards to the country.” He sighed and shook his head, saying, “It’s exhausting.”

"But after returning to China, Yan Qin felt something was wrong. She had nightmares every night and felt insecure. The doctor said it was psychological, but...after meeting you guys, I feel like there's more to it. I want to ask you to help me figure out what's going on."

No wonder Situ Lin gets along so well with the Lin family. It turns out that he's paving the way for his family to remain at the top by securing a position as the next generation's chief advisor.

On Lin Yanqin's bedside table was a brass gossip mirror, given to her by Situ Lin.

My brother was checking her room and bathroom, Lin Yanhuan gave me a look, signaling me to come out and speak.

"Xiao Qiao, I remember you reminded me to be careful of Si Tu Lin and the Si Tu family." Lin Yanhuan said with a serious face.

“According to my sources, Situ Lin has contacted my sister several times in the Imperial City. He is one of the national secret advisors, and my family trusts him very much. My little sister has always been pampered, and I'm worried that she will be deceived by Situ Lin. You guys need to take a closer look at the bronze mirror he gave her.”

I pouted and said, "What if we break the mirror Last time I broke your blue-and-white porcelain vase, you didn't look too happy with me."

Lin Yanhuan was taken aback and laughed, "Little Qiao, did you not give me a good face to look at I really don't understand, you got things broken and you are still angry"

“I’m annoyed by your attitude! I said there was something wrong with that, but you don't believe me!” I frowned and said, “We’re working with Situ Lin—it’s not the kind of taboo you think other colleagues would have! Forget it, forget it… Some things are taboo, I won't say them. You can believe it or not.”

"Alright, let's just forget about this. Don't be angry anymore, okay" He reached out and put his hand on my shoulder.

I shifted awkwardly, unable to dodge his hand. I couldn't help but remind him, "Um...Young Master Lin, I have a husband. Shouldn't you be a little more careful"

Lin Yanhuan smiled and let go of her hand, saying, “It’s something to be careful about, but Qiaoqiao, you saved me twice. I woke up in your arms both times.”

I frowned. "So what Who cares about that when saving lives"

He smiled at me, and I felt a shiver down my spine.

"Xiao Qiao, no matter what your profession is or what your family background is, you are a complete member of society. This society does not recognize the so-called arranged marriage..."

He gave me a meaningful look, then turned and left.

I returned to Lin Yanqin's room and saw my brother looking at the bronze mirror. Lin Yanqin was circling him like a little chick.

Unfortunately, my brother paid her no mind. He raised the bronze mirror in his hand and asked me, "Xiao Qiao, come take a look, isn't this very similar to the mirrors Cheng Banxian placed around Father when he removed the poison"

Like that bronze mirror that brings forth the most deeply etched memories in one's heart! night.This is a small village near the county town. The simple village committee was still lit up in the middle of the night, and the guard room was practically deserted, with people inside sleeping...
