Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration-Chapter 1242: Extra 14: Ye Shen: Excuse me, which Lin Family?

Ye Shaohua thought of this and couldn’t help but lean back, lowering her gaze to check her phone, which she had used to instruct Luo Cheng to gather news from this area.

Luo Cheng hadn’t sent any information yet.

She glanced at An Ning, whose complexion had been bad since she entered, hands clenched tightly.

It was clear she was enduring something.

She took several deep breaths, almost unable to endure anymore, stared at the middle-aged man, and said word by word, "Aren’t you afraid of retribution for your actions?"

"Pfft, you’re an adult too, how can you still be so naive?" The middle-aged man looked at An Ning oddly, then scoffed.

Hearing this, Qin’s father immediately stopped An Ning from continuing and, with a somewhat obsequious smile, said to the middle-aged man, "Mr. Lin, I apologize, I apologize, An Ning is ignorant. We have discussed this matter already and will not pursue it further."

Upon hearing Qin’s father’s words, the middle-aged man’s expression eased slightly.

"Alright then, in a couple of days, we will send someone to handle this matter for you," his chin lifted slightly, "I trust you will be truthful."

"Of course," both Qin’s father and his wife stepped forward, smiling, "Mr. Lin, we have booked a hotel, inviting An Ning and my son to offer you a drink as an apology..."

Mr. Lin, hearing this, slightly raised his chin, appearing somewhat proud, "That’s not necessary, my car is waiting for me downstairs, just be truthful."

After saying this, he straightened his suit and left with his head held high.

Qin’s father and his wife bowed and escorted Mr. Lin out, faces adorned with smiles.

Qin Wei and An Ning were unaware of what exactly Qin’s parents and Mr. Lin had agreed upon and remained silent.

Qin’s parents went down to see off Mr. Lin.

Only three people were left in the office.

Both Qin Wei and An Ning looked uneasy, particularly An Ning who was ignoring Qin Wei, as Ye Shaohua observed them both.

Then she stepped forward, pressed on her face mask, and carefully chose her words before turning to An Ning and asking softly, "Who is that Mr. Lin from earlier? Does he have a grudge against you?"

An Ning, who originally looked upset, saw Ye Shaohua speak and suppressed her anger, looking at Ye Shaohua with a much softer tone, "It’s okay, you don’t need to worry."

Their conversation provided Qin Wei with a breakthrough.

He suddenly looked at An Ning and reached out to grab her hand, but she avoided him.

Qin Wei, who stood six feet tall with a sunny appearance, now looked somewhat downcast as he forced himself to keep his spirits up.

Perhaps seeing An Ning being friendly toward Ye Shaohua, he turned to Ye Shaohua, "Xiao Ning, is this your sister?"

An Ning glanced at Qin Wei, her gaze turning colder and without introducing Ye Shaohua.

She then stepped back, "Qin Wei, what exactly did your parents say to the Lin Family? A private settlement? They made my dad..."

She paused upon realizing Ye Shaohua was present, took a deep breath,

then continued, "Your parents said it’s a private settlement?!"

Her voice almost cracked.

Qin Wei, seeing what seemed like tears in her eyes, hurriedly spoke, his hand firmly on An Ning’s shoulder, "Xiao Ning, I don’t know what my parents have done, but these past few days I’ve had my friends in the court gather information about the Lin Family and evidence on this matter. Don’t worry, I won’t let our dad suffer for no reason..."

At this moment, Qin’s mother and father returned.

They were still smiling, overhearing the conversation between Qin Wei and An Ning.

Qin’s father’s expression changed.

He stormed in, his eyes wide with anger as he looked at Qin Wei, "What are you saying? You had someone investigate the Lin Family? Do you have any idea who he really is? Never mind your court friends, even the city mayor wouldn’t touch this!"

Qin Wei thought about how he had been running around the last few days and hadn’t found the slightest information, feeling a sinking sensation in his heart.

An Ning’s expression calmed as she looked at Qin’s mother and father, "So this matter is settled just like that? My dad is just going to lie there in bed as a..."

An Ning choked up before continuing, "As a vegetable? And what about my dad’s coworker, he just died for nothing?"

Qin’s mother appeared slightly embarrassed but continued, "But, An Ning, what can you do? Just to let you know, Mr. Lin is from the Imperial City Lin Family, the very Lin Family you know of. The person who beat your dad is the young master of the Lin Family, Mr. Lin mentioned today, even if the young master had killed him, he wouldn’t face any consequences."

"Yes," Qin’s father, seeing a change in An Ning’s expression, continued, "If you don’t pursue this matter with the young master, consider it never happened and the Lin Family will owe you a favor. Look, your dad is still alive, not pursuing this matter means a promising future for you."

"An Ning, my son," Qin’s mother, seeing Qin Wei’s fists clenched and him visibly upset, urgently said, "The Lin Family is truly not to be trifled with, the young master is the Lin Family’s sole heir, and the Lin Family’s old master won’t let anything happen to him, his grandfather is a former chief of the Military District..."

Almost no one in the room paid attention to Ye Shaohua, as Qin’s mother and father completely ignored her.

An Ning was currently very emotional, before she had been careful not to let Ye Shaohua know about these matters.

But now her mind was jumbled, and she couldn’t hold back anymore.

Finally grasping what was happening, Ye Shaohua saw An Ning so upset her eyes were turning red, and the Qin parents earnestly trying to persuade.

She couldn’t help but raise her hand, "Excuse me, Mr. Qin, which Lin Family are you referring to?"
