Chapter 139: My Man is So Considerate!

    Shen Family Courtyard, in the living room.

    “I told you not to mess around, now look at what you’ve done!” After scolding Lin Nan, Lin Wanrou hung up the phone.

    “What happened to Xiao Nan? Did something happen?” Seeing how furious Lin Wanrou was, Lin Wanxi asked curiously. She had never seen her sister so angry before, so her nephew must have caused some serious trouble.

    “He’s suspected of money laundering and has been arrested.” Lin Wanrou sighed, not expecting her son to get involved in such matters.

    “Money laundering?” Lin Wanxi was stunned, her expression bewildered. Even though her nephew didn’t have much status in the Lin family, he still had money. Why would he get involved in something like this?

    “He used that money to buy a gaming company, hoping to achieve something impressive so the Lin family would take him seriously.” Seeing her sister’s confusion, Lin Wanrou explained with a sigh.

    Lin Nan had good intentions; it was good for young people to be ambitious. But he shouldn’t have used money laundering to gain the Lin family’s approval!

    “Sister, can you help me? The matter isn’t finalized yet, and there’s still room for maneuver.”

    Lin Wanrou pleaded, looking at Lin Wanxi. Although they weren’t biological sisters, their bond was closer than that of real sisters. They had a good relationship even back in the Lin family, and now Lin Wanxi was the only one who could help her.

    “I’ll let Qingqiu handle it...” Lin Wanxi sighed. Seeing her sister like this made her feel bad.

    This matter was neither big nor small. The main issue was that it wasn’t yet confirmed that Lin Nan was indeed laundering money, so there was still some room to maneuver.

    Without further hesitation, Lin Wanxi took out her phone and called Shen Qingqiu.

    ...

    At Shen Group, Shen Qingqiu was reviewing documents. When she saw the incoming call, she didn’t hesitate to answer, “Mom, what’s the matter?”

    Lin Wanxi briefly explained the situation to Shen Qingqiu.

    “Go to the detention center and see what’s going on.”

    “What’s he up to now?” Shen Qingqiu frowned, her expression impatient.

    After what Lin Nan had said about Jiang Che last time, she didn’t have a good impression of him.

    Even though Jiang Che didn’t call her directly, he had arranged everything. Feeling touched, Shen Qingqiu also felt more disgusted with her foolish cousin. This guy had badmouthed Jiang Che in front of her last time, and now he was being slapped in the face at lightning speed.

    ...

    “President Shen, the necessary procedures have been completed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.” About half an hour later, the lawyer returned to Shen Qingqiu and spoke politely.

    His respectful tone indicated that he saw her as his future mistress.

    “Thank you...” Shen Qingqiu said faintly. Although Jiang Che handled everything, the lawyer still deserved some gratitude.

    “You’re welcome, President Shen. You can now take Lin Nan out. My client will not pursue the matter further, but whether Lin Nan laundered money still needs to be investigated.” The lawyer said respectfully and left.

    As the chief lawyer for the Jiang family, he had many cases to handle and couldn’t stay there indefinitely.

    ...

    “Cousin, why are you here?” Lin Nan was soon released. He was still confused but understood when he saw Shen Qingqiu in the hall.

    He believed Shen Qingqiu must have used her connections to get him out so quickly! This made Lin Nan deeply touched. His cousin still cared about him after all! She wasn’t as heartless as she seemed.

    “Have you had enough causing trouble yet?!” Shen Qingqiu coldly glanced at Lin Nan, her eyes filled with killing intent. Her aura was chaotic, ready to erupt at any moment. She would not allow anyone to threaten Jiang Che, not even her cousin!

    “Cousin... you...” Feeling Shen Qingqiu’s undisguised murderous intent, Lin Nan was terrified! His back was drenched in cold sweat, fine beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and his face turned pale, his voice trembling. Shen Qingqiu’s current state was something he had never seen before.

    “From today on, don’t let me see you again. Get as far away as you can!” Shen Qingqiu coldly looked at Lin Nan and turned to leave.

    She feared staying longer would make her lose control and hit him! After all, this was a detention center, and the impact wouldn’t be good. In any other place, she would have beaten him up today!

    Jiang Che was her bottom line, and Lin Nan had crossed it, making it impossible for her to remain calm. Watching Shen Qingqiu leave, Lin Nan was utterly confused. He couldn’t understand why Shen Qingqiu was so hostile toward him. Wasn’t she here to bail him out?

    Why did she look like she wanted to kill him after getting him out?

    “You can leave, but you must stay in Linjiang City until we complete our investigation. If necessary, you must respond to our summons.” A police officer walked up to Lin Nan and warned him.

    The Jiang family had withdrawn the lawsuit, so he had no reason to keep Lin Nan detained. Although Lin Nan was highly suspected of money laundering, there was no solid evidence yet. But the matter was too significant to drop. Once they had enough evidence, they would arrest Lin Nan immediately.

    So Lin Nan left the detention center in a daze, still unsure of what had happened...
