Chapter 728: Pitting Lin Ze against Tai Zheng
" And that woman did not even give you any benefits, what if we had complained to the Yamen and you would have been sent to prison? What will your son have done then? If that woman is making use of you, at least she should have offered Lin Che a position in the court right? She is simply treating you like money, ex-uncle," Lin Yu added insult to injury causing Lin Ze's face to turn even worse, that was right!
That woman not only did she use him and she did not even give him any benefits, she simply wanted to use him as her sword without applying any grease to it to sharpen it.
" I just feel sorry for old lady Lin, if you were caught then what would have happened to her?" Lin Yan added swiftly, he was a natural-born beauty when it came to looks, if he wanted to pretend like he was sorry for someone he just needed to put a small effort into it. When he pulled a long face with a sympathetic pair of eyes, he did look like he was feeling sorry for Old Lady Lin. " How will she raise your son at such an old age? She would have died of grief and we all know that Lin Che is not that skilled when it comes to earning money, he too would have been affected by this … if that were to happen, then ex-uncle your entire family would have been ruined."
Seeing that Lin Ze's expression turned for the worse and she suddenly added with a soft voice, " Or maybe that woman did send you some benefits like a few taels or something of the sort such that you will do a good job but the middle man who was in charge of telling you all this kept everything to himself, that woman might be treating you like beggar ex uncle but that middle man of yours is treating you like a fool."
She hasn't forgotten the man who was in charge of whispering all that nonsense in the ears of Lin Ze, she knew that the woman's hands were long but there was no way for her to reach this far if not for people like the man who was behind these schemes. She was going to teach him a good lesson as well, did he think he was safe just because he was playing a safe game, haha?
She knew that the woman in the imperial harem would not be as foolish as not giving money to the man who was behind Lin Ze, she must have offered some sort of advantage to him and maybe even asked him to share it with Lin Ze such that he will do a good job, it was just that the man who was responsible for this scheme turned out to be a greedy bastard and kept everything to himself thinking he was really smart.
In any case, she will not only drag that woman but also everyone else who was behind her. Let's see if that woman thinks of her as a frail little woman who can be bullied as she liked and when she liked.
As expected Lin Ze was instantly enraged as he turned to look at Su Wan with a face that was filled with livid rage, " You mean to say that the woman must have sent money to be given to me?"
" Or else?" Su Wan said with an eye roll slightly displeased that Lin Ze was not getting everything in one shot. Compared to him even Lin Chen was smarter. " People in the capital think that we commoners are nothing but hoofs under their shoes, as long as they throw money at us, we will do everything that they ask us to do which is why that woman made a fool out of you, and that man made even a bigger fool of your."
" He not only left you to fight the battle alone but he might be staying at home enjoying all the money that has been offered to you."
Su Wan successfully angered Lin Ze, he was a man who cared the most about money. The second he heard that his money was taken by someone, his face turned red and he smacked his hand on the table, these days he could not even eat his fill, a tael was more than welcome and yet that beast kept everything to himself and left him to starve?
"That man must be laughing at your stupidity, If I were you I would go and get my money back from him before teaching him a good lesson and not only that, I will even go and teach that woman a lesson who thinks that she can make me dance like a monkey because she threw a few taels at me."
She needed to dig this hole properly for both the Su and the Lin families to jump in if they did not take this bait properly she could not afford to have them return and find trouble with her when she was not in the town. That will be a disaster.
When Lin Ze heard Su Wan's words his entire face was dripping with gloom, the more he thought about it the more his resentment towards Tai Zheng and that woman in the capital started to get worse. If it was up to him then he would have punched Tai Zheng until he cried for his mother as for that woman he would have left his mother to deal with her.
" That man, no wonder he has been egging me on these days while he was feasting on meat and what not, he was enjoying the money that should have been given to me!" When Lin Ze thought about how he was treating Tai Zheng better because the latter brought him a few drinks in the bar, he wanted to slap himself in the face. Clearly, that man was using his own money to buy drinks for him and yet he was treating that man so well, if he knew that all those drinks came from his own money then would he treat that Tai Zheng so well? No, he would have slapped him straight up!
