211: Chapter 211 There's no land that's been over-cultivated, only oxen that have died from exhaustion.
Years ago, that young master of The Jin Family, who had been sickly since childhood, had indeed died.
At the time, they also believed that a charlatan must have deceived them.
Not only did they want to retaliate against the charlatan, but they also completely gave up on Lin Yu, leaving him to fend for himself in The Lin Family.
But later, that charlatan not only came up with a bunch of excuses but also predicted that Madam Jin would conceive another child before long.
To verify this, The Jin Family did not immediately retaliate against the charlatan.
Whether it was a coincidence or the charlatan was truly correct, nobody knew.
Madam Jin had actually become pregnant again!
After ten months of pregnancy, she gave birth to another boy.
But just like the previous young master, this boy's health was not good from birth.
The charlatan said that this time, as long as they followed his instructions strictly, they could ensure the boy grew up safely.
One very important step was that they had to make the scapegoat, Lin Yu, truly die in place of the boy!
Therefore, when The Jin Family heard that Lin Yu had been kicked out by The Lin Family, they decisively took him back.
Keeping him under their noses would also ensure their plan was foolproof.
Now, with some time left before the "day of substitution" mentioned by the charlatan, The Jin Family had to tolerate Lin Yu in every way to avoid alerting the enemy.
Unfortunately, the trouble Lin Yu caused was simply too much, forcing the couple from The Jin Family to lose their temper several times.
This time, after Lin Yu left home, several servants wanted to smooth things over.
But they were all stopped by Jin Ming, who did not allow them to pursue him.
Madam Jin sighed helplessly, "Sigh, are we just letting him run off like this? If something actually happens to him, it will be very difficult for us to find another scapegoat for our son who can help change his luck and has a compatible birth chart."
"I know."
Jin Ming sat on the sofa, feeling irritable, "We can just bring him back after he has suffered enough outside; anyway, he has nowhere else to go besides The Jin Family now."
Madam Jin nodded, "Hmm, it's best to send someone to keep an eye on him; we cannot be careless about this."
...
Lin Yu ran out of the home of The Jin Family, taking nothing but his mobile phone.
After leaving the Villa, he walked toward the exit of the residential complex, looking back every three steps.
Seeing that no one had chased after him for a long time, he gradually became irritable.
"Are they really going to ignore me?"
Lin Yu clenched his fists, his eyes showing some hesitation.
But after hesitating for only a moment, he gritted his teeth fiercely, "Hah, don't come looking for me now, and don't regret it later!"
With that, he left the residential complex without looking back.
Because he had nowhere to go, he could only wander aimlessly on the road.
By this time, it was already dark, and there were fewer and fewer people on the road.
Passing the entrance of an alley, he saw a small shop inside and thought about going in to buy a pack of cigarettes.
But just as he entered the alley, he suddenly heard a burst of rapid footsteps behind him.
Lin Yu turned to check almost subconsciously, only to see a man wearing a hat and a mask rushing straight toward him.
In the pair of eyes that were exposed, there was nothing but cold, murderous intent.
Lin Yu was startled and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
But he soon realized that this man was coming straight for him!
"You, what are you doing?"
He looked at the man gradually approaching in terror.
The man had no intention of answering his question, rushed up, and grabbed him by the throat.
Although Lin Yu was afraid, his will to survive still made him struggle fiercely.
Unfortunately, the man had brute strength, and with his physique, he was simply no match for the other party.
At this moment, he suddenly saw the man take out a folding knife from his clothes.
"You, you..."
Lin Yu's pupils contracted suddenly, and fear spread instantly.
The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen!
The knife, gleaming with a cold light, stabbed into his body and was then pulled out!
On the silvery-white blade, drops of blood rolled down.
With the intense pain and fear, Lin Yu couldn't even scream.
He just opened his mouth wide, like a dying fish.
"Pfft!"
Another stab!
Lin Yu felt as if all the blood in his body was about to freeze, and his body temperature was constantly draining away.
After the man let go, he leaned against the wall and slowly slid to the ground.
But the man did not seem ready to stop; he leaned down and stabbed Lin Yu in the face once more.
In Lin Yu's eyes, only despair remained.
He didn't understand why he would suffer such a lethal calamity when he had no grudge against the other person.
However, whether it was heaven's favor or not, who knew.
Just as his consciousness was about to fade, he vaguely saw car headlights flashing outside the alley.
"Help, help..."
This hoarse voice used up almost all of Lin Yu's remaining strength.
Fortunately, the person outside the alley happened to look this way and saw him.
There was another burst of rapid footsteps, and Lin Yu slowly raised his head to see that the person who had arrived was wearing a uniform—it was a traffic police officer.
"Sir, are you alright?"
This traffic police officer was also stunned.
He was just on a routine patrol in this area to see if there were any illegally parked cars.
He did not expect to encounter a murder scene.
While checking on Lin Yu's condition, he reported to headquarters and called for help.
Even more coincidentally, an ambulance happened to be passing by.
After receiving the rescue call from the traffic police, it immediately parked at the entrance of the alley.
Several medical personnel rushed in, placed Lin Yu on a stretcher together, and carried him into the ambulance.
Lin Yu only felt that the sounds in his ears were very noisy, but he couldn't hear anything clearly.
Looking at the figures swaying in front of him, his spirit could no longer hold on, and he passed out completely.
...
The Lin Family was in a warm atmosphere.
Not only was The Lin Family present, but even Mrs. Qiu and Qiu Xiaoyan had been invited as guests.
Through the news, The Lin Family all knew what had happened in the western suburbs.
Seeing that they had both avoided losses for Qiu Corporation and made Lin Yu suffer a setback, they were very happy.
"A-Xiao, you are truly amazing; if it weren't for you, I'm afraid our in-laws would have suffered a huge loss this time!"
"Yes, A-Xiao, you are really amazing!"
"..."
The Lin Family kept praising him.
Mrs. Qiu also spoke at the right moment, "This time I really have to thank A-Xiao; you don't know, those shareholders who wanted to cause trouble for me yesterday have completely changed their tune today."
Thinking of the embarrassed and awkward expressions of those people at the emergency shareholder meeting that had just been held, Mrs. Qiu couldn't help but want to laugh.
Qiu Xiaoyan also hugged Lin Xiao's arm and said affectionately, "Hubby is amazing!"
Lin Xiao felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
At this moment, Su Xiumei suddenly said, "Since you are here today, the two of you shouldn't go back; just stay here tonight."
Qiu Xiaoyan lifted her head, her lively eyes looking at Lin Xiao, "I listen to my hubby."
Lin Xiao subconsciously touched his lower back and looked at Qiu Xiaoyan.
[ Then let's stay at home for a day. ]
[ Otherwise, the more the land is plowed, the softer it gets, but the ox is afraid it won't be able to take it. ]
