Chapter 1026 - 1092: Accompanying Goddess Zi to the Film Set
After nearly smashing all the porcelain in the room to pieces, Old Mr. Qin's beard trembled, and he stopped, shaking his body with difficulty, panting heavily."Where was Shou'er found?" Old Mr. Qin gritted his teeth, and each word erupted from between his clenched teeth.
A short question was drawn out into a very long process.
The words were filled with various unmasked emotions, most prominently anger.
Everyone in the room was trembling with fear, not daring to make a sound.
"Speak!" Old Mr. Qin nearly roared.
"In the underground sewage of the Northern Suburb of Yanjing, when our people found Young Master Shou, he was being used by several beggars as a tool to earn sympathy for begging every day."
"Moreover... Young Master Qin... seems to have... already fallen into dementia."
The speaker, a middle-aged man, was the most capable and shrewd butler of the Qin family, and at this moment, every word he spoke seemed to test his psychological endurance as he constantly wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Let those beggars die, all of them!" Old Mr. Qin nearly shouted in rage.
"Old Master, please calm down. I'll immediately send people to kill every beggar in the underground sewage of the Northern Suburb, not leaving a single one!" Qin Shou's father was afraid the old master would get too agitated and hurt himself, so he quickly said through gritted teeth.
Old Mr. Qin nodded.
Suddenly, he raised his hand again and said coldly, "Wait!"
"Where did those beggars find Shou'er? Investigate thoroughly, and after interrogating them, torture them fiercely until they die!"
Old Mr. Qin's tone was filled with murderous intent.
Qin Shou's father immediately agreed and said to the middle-aged butler, "Mobilize all the Qin family's financial resources, material resources, and connections. We must find clues to who harmed Shou'er."
"Investigate whom Shou'er offended, what he did that day, what he encountered, and review all the city's surveillance footage in Yanjing to find the suspect."
Old Mr. Qin also chimed in, "There's no need for concrete evidence. As long as there is a suspect, kill them all. Leave no one alive! I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go!"
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
The butler rushed out hurriedly, not caring about the slight awkwardness of his suit given his large movements.
Now, he only thought about getting the job done quickly, to successfully investigate the perpetrator.
Otherwise, the old master's anger might very well spread to him.
...
Twenty minutes later, the middle-aged butler returned, sweating profusely, clutching a pile of documents.
It's undeniable that being able to work in the Qin family for so many years, this butler was indeed very competent.
"Old Master, Family Head, all the video footage and records of that day are here."
After speaking, the butler took a breath and continued, "Several events occurred on that day that seem very suspicious."
"Tell me!" Old Mr. Qin, now calmer, was pacing back and forth.
"On that day, there was a bizarre car accident on the North Ring Overpass in Yanjing."
"A few days before the accident, Young Master Qin seemed to have hired Yanjing's Little Car God, South Ring 12, along with more than a dozen drivers."
Old Mr. Qin immediately caught the connection and asked in a deep voice, "What did Shou'er want drivers for?"
"It was to stage a car accident. I asked Young Master Qin's assistant; it seems Young Master Ziqing instructed him to take someone out."
Old Mr. Qin squinted his eyes into slits, epitomizing the cunning old fox he was known to be.
"Take out whom?"
Old Mr. Qin felt the situation was becoming clearer.
"Take out a person named Lin Hai."
"Lin Hai? Never heard of him." Old Mr. Qin shook his head. He had a clear mental register of all the slightly notable and capable young people in Yanjing, but he hadn't heard of Lin Hai.
"Could it be someone from the Lin family?" Qin Shou's father interjected.
Old Mr. Qin shook his head, "We know everyone from the Lin family. This Lin Hai seems to have appeared out of nowhere."
"No matter, capture Lin Hai immediately and interrogate him with extreme measures." Old Mr. Qin waved his large hand.
"Yes, Old Master, I'll get on it."
The middle-aged butler hurriedly retreated, mobilizing manpower to bring back Lin Hai.
...
On the other hand, Goddess Zi sat in the car, hesitating for a long time.
"Mr. Lin, Miss Qing didn't really do anything to you, right?"
Lin Hai looked miserable, recalling an unbearable memory from earlier.
"I'm still a virgin. What do you think she could do to me?"
"..." Hearing the word "virgin," Goddess Zi's pretty face suddenly flushed red.
Ah, it's not like she wanted to ask that. Why did Mr. Lin have to be so blunt?
However, upon reflection, why did she feel a clear sense of relief when she heard Lin Hai was a "virgin"?
"Mr. Lin, are you busy today?" Goddess Zi was a bit lost and feared Lin Hai might see through something, so she hurriedly changed the topic.
Lin Hai didn't seem to care about these things; he was entirely immersed in thoughts about his parents and background.
"Oh, nothing much." Lin Hai replied casually.
"How about accompanying me to the film set?"
Film set? The filming place?
Lin Hai had never been to such a place before.
Thinking of the various dazzling and exciting movies on TV.
For example, something slightly hot like Jingdong, or Ozawa Sensei... it made him curious about how films are made.
"Sure." Lin Hai agreed.
"Mr. Lin, it seems we're going the wrong way; the film set is over there, and we'll have to make a detour again."
With the current heavy traffic, turning around seemed impossible for everyone due to the narrow gaps.
"Hehe, watch me."
Lin Hai steered, combining the handbrake and accelerator, instantly performing a 180-degree drift on the spot.
In the car, Goddess Zi obviously didn't react in time. She let out a scream and then saw the car had already turned around, in such dense traffic.
"This..." The Goddess Zi slightly opened her cherry lips in surprise.
The film set had a few skilled stunt drivers, but... the Goddess Zi didn't think those stunt drivers combined could match the skill Lin just displayed casually.
"Mr. Lin, you know car stunts too?" Goddess Zi asked in great astonishment.
"Hehe, I used to be nicknamed Car God Lin." The man completely lacked an awareness that modesty is a virtue.
The car quickly arrived at the film set.
After Goddess Zi got out of the car, she was immediately the focus of massive attention.
Lin Hai casually put on a pair of sunglasses and followed behind Goddess Zi.
"The Diva Zi has arrived, huh."
"Hello, Diva Zi."
"Diva sister, looking stunning today."
The people around greeted Goddess Zi, some even showing obsequious and flattering expressions.
It felt as if walking alongside Goddess Zi was akin to being escorted like the moon surrounded by stars.
The small actors and miscellaneous staff around also curiously looked at Lin Hai with a serious expression, wonder and puzzlement filling their hearts, pondering what relationship this man had with the Little Queen Zi.
"Huh? Has everyone finished filming today?" Goddess Zi noticed the film set seemed less busy today than usual, as normally it would be hustling and bustling.
"Oh, how could the Little Diva understand the hard plight of us poor little actors? As soon as we take a slight break, it's viewed as laziness."
A shrill, provocative voice sounded, directly addressing Goddess Zi with sharp opposition right in her face.
From afar, a woman with a coquettish appearance, dressed provocatively in deep-V attire, strutting with a rounded butt that would make many homebodies' noses bleed at the sight, walked over.
