clattered down the steps with a loud bang."Oh... it's so cold... Xiao Qiao, come here quickly! What are you spacing out for!" Her face was pale, and she stamped her feet impatiently at me.The Taoist...My brother's question is a bit excessive.

Old Man Lin's face was pale, he looked a bit tired, and there was a suspicious look in his eyes. He must have felt something was wrong so he came back to find us.

Lin Yanqin said, "My brother originally wanted to invite you to our house, but I think it's quite inconvenient here with so many people of all ages, wounded people, and the chaos. So I persuaded my dad to come quietly during his work break. Even if someone finds out about his whereabouts, he can just say that he..."

Come over to my place for some tea and let's have a chat, shall we

We all understood what she meant, so when her voice grew softer and softer, we didn't press her.

My brother didn't tease her either, after all, the future father-in-law was here. If he thought that Lin Yanqin was often bullied, it wouldn't be good...

"Do you feel a little off" I asked.

Lin Lao's father nodded and stared at me, saying, "You are the special consultant I didn't have a chance to chat with you last time..."

“While I was handling official business yesterday, I suddenly fell asleep on my desk for a while. When I woke up, I found that there were many words on the draft on my desk, which must have been written when I was drowsy... Yan Huan and Yan Qin said that this was done to me, making me come and see you.”

"I didn't really believe in this sort of thing at first, but my position is very sensitive, and I can't give anyone an opportunity to take advantage. During the time I was feeling dizzy yesterday, I seem to have signed something, but now I can't remember what it was... It would be terrible if someone took advantage of that and caused huge losses to the country."

Yesterday...yesterday we were still in the Taiji diagram.

It must have been Old Wang who did something to Old Lin's father. While we were busy with the Tai Chi diagram, he secretly slipped out.

"You give us that amulet." I pointed to my chest. "This thing is abnormal, don't wear it."

Lin Yanqin immediately took out a jewelry box from her person: "Xiao Qiao, I've forced my dad to take it off. I didn't dare to hold it, so I put it in here."

She passed the box to me.

I opened the box, and a faint evil emanated from within.

Ordinary people can't feel it, but we can tell something is wrong at a glance.

"Uncle, from now on, don't wear anything that outsiders give you. Our line of work deals with a lot of things that are beyond comprehension. They mostly harm people in invisible ways. We avoid causing trouble and also avoid harming our good fortune, so we generally don't harm people... but some unscrupulous individuals might do anything for money, regardless of the consequences." My brother frowned and said.

Lin Laode furrowed his brows. Perhaps like Lin Yanhuan, he was wary of things beyond his control and disliked anything exceeding his sphere of influence.

The Way, one word profound and enigmatic, is something even celestial beings and divine spirits need to constantly ponder.

"Many things are of unknown origin, so don't just wear them randomly... especially things that are old. You don't know who they've been through or what they've experienced. There are risks to wearing them." My brother took out a talisman for warding off evil spirits and wrapped the "tooth" in it.

“Especially some people, they can't distinguish between monks and immortals, let alone which immortal or bodhisattva they are praying to. They pray indiscriminately, only achieving the opposite effect...”

Mr. Lin chuckled and said, "This is understandable. Ordinary people aren't professionals and don't understand the different factions. They just seek psychological comfort."

"You can't just randomly ask for help. If you were to recite 'May Bodhisattvas protect us' in front of an Immortal, wouldn't that be disrespectful It wouldn't work anyway... So either you have no restrictions at all, or you carefully and seriously learn the proper way before making a prayer."

My brother folded a small magic circle out of talisman paper, put the tooth in it, and handed it to Da Bao, telling him to place it under the tree in the courtyard and have Xiao Nie keep an eye on it while it basked in the sun to dispel the evil spirits.

Lin Lao's father looked at my brother silently doing these things, then said to my father: "Your children are quite capable. It seems that your family education is strict, so they are able to surpass their master."

Poof... My dad almost choked.

"Ahem, my dad turned red in the face and said a little awkwardly, 'Brother Lin, I can't take that compliment. My... two children are all capable on their own, they haven't gone astray, they are good kids, I'm proud of them. But when it comes to bringing them up... I'm ashamed to say, I'm a hands-off parent. I don't put too much pressure on them, they make their own decisions about their own things.'"

My dad hesitated for a moment, glanced at me with a hint of fear: "To be honest, my daughter manages the family finances, and my son takes care of Mu Family affairs. I'm just a figurehead."

Mr. Lin smiled and said, “I feel the same way too. I owe my children too much and can't control them.”

Can you be the same! Can you be like my dad!

You're busy every day, my dad... well, he's also busy every day, his phone is always on.

Since the father-in-law had already spoken up, my dad felt it was awkward to stay silent. He forced himself to say, “Well... Mr. Lin, my son and your precious daughter have been dating for a while now. What do you think about..."

I widened my eyes and gave my brother a look. My dad was actually going to help!

My brother scoffed with little hope.

Last time, Old Man Lin talked with my brother. They mostly discussed business matters, then he slipped in some personal questions. Finally, he told my brother, "Young people need to work hard and contribute more to the country."

Later, the military bigwig Qin Da Ye went in to help, but Lin Lao still didn't budge. Of course, his precious daughter Yan Qin couldn't be easily given away. Even if my brother brought mountains of gold and silver, Lin Lao wouldn't care about those things.

But my brother has a special skill!

Lao Lin probably has many capable people around him, but in our line of work, he probably doesn't trust anyone very much. If his son-in-law were knowledgeable, wouldn't he be afraid of being backstabbed

So he carefully watched my brother's words and actions, secretly assessing him!

"Yān Qìn told me that Yún Fán is a good person. After these two encounters, I can also feel that he is a kind child... However, you know the situation in my family. Yān Qìn and Yān Huān's marriage needs to be very careful and low-key. I heard that the Mù family has established an auction company and plans to launder some valuable items and donate them to the country. This is a very good thing, and it will be able to help the country recover many overseas artifacts in the future. I hope Yún Fán can do well with this."

Gosh… This hook is too direct, it’s practically begging people to take the bait.

A few hundred million dollars in dowry is not enough, I also have to let my brother sell his life for the country.

Lin Yanqin bit her lip secretly, looking at my brother with a wronged expression.

Marrying a wife and also contributing to the country, that's really tough!

The old man hobbled in on his cane, smiling and saying, “There are honored guests here”

What are you doing here, old man!obably safe here, no one dares to touch her. Just relax, with so many people here, it wouldn't be hard to protect you while you give birth. Besides, your husband is almost here — he should be at Qingc...
