This room was essentially a file archive of the Zhou family, with many docunts inside.
Zhou Batian walked into the room, but he sat at the desk, his gaze fixed blankly on a portrait of Zhou Yuanji on the table.
"Brother, you must protect our Zhou family," Zhou Batian said solemnly. "Let Ci successfully kill Lin Chen this ti and establish a century-long foundation for our family."
At this mont, Lin Chen, looking at the room full of archives, felt a tickle in his heart. There must be many valuable clues here, but he couldn't browse them with Zhou Batian in the room.
When will this old man leave? Lin Chen helplessly watched Zhou Batian staring blankly at the portrait.
"Brother, it was Lin Chen who killed you. Don't worry, in three days, I will avenge you," said Zhou Batian, his eyes cold with intent.
Finally, after sitting for over an hour, Zhou Batian stood up and left the room.
Once Lin Chen was certain that Zhou Batian had indeed left, he hurriedly began to sift through the Zhou family archives.
Wow, Lin Chen thought, not expecting much initially, but after looking through the docunts, he was overjoyed.
Inside a sealed booklet, there was a record of all the intelligence exchanged between the Zhou family and various international organizations, including drafts of so secret agreents.
With this evidence, the Zhou family was dood.
The higher-ups of Huaxia might turn a blind eye to many things out of respect for the older generation, but they always maintained a zero-tolerance policy towards such traitorous acts.
The Zhou family's betrayal of Huaxia's intelligence was nurous, involving various industries and fields, even so important top-secret information.
The Zhou family had already beco a puppet for foreign groups more than a decade ago. Their betrayal of Huaxia's intelligence could be described as outrageous. If Lin Chen had never co to this secret chamber, he would never have known the Zhou family was hiding such secrets.
Just as Lin Chen was about to leave, an yellowed notebook caught his eye.
He opened the notebook, and an aged letter fell out.
Lin Chen opened the letter and his expression changed dramatically.
The letter was addressed to the then Family Head of the Zhou family, Zhou Tianlun, from soone signing as Mr. Xu.
The gist of the letter was that Mr. Xu would fra the Lin family for treason and suggested that Zhou Tianlun, under the na of the Zhou family, join forces with the other three families to annihilate the Lin family.
The letter also ntioned sothing called the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, and the reason Mr. Xu wanted to annihilate the Lin family was precisely because of this scripture.
Mr. Xu, it turns out that the ultimate destruction of the Lin family was orchestrated by this Mr. Xu.
But who was this Mr. Xu, and how did he have the ability to mobilize the Zhou, Li, and Xue families to serve him?
Lin Chen looked through many archives, but apart from this letter, he found no other clues about Mr. Xu.
Despite this, Lin Chen's discoveries were still quite significant. He had recorded the conversation between Zhou Batian and the Ninth Prince, along with all the evidence in the archives, using a cara recorder. With this evidence, Huaxia's authorities would not let the Zhou family off the hook.
However, Lin Chen didn't act imdiately; instead, he decided to wait. He wanted to clear the Lin family's na in front of everyone in three days.
At Capital City airport, a plane slowly taxied to a stop on the tarmac. A girl, flanked by two bodyguards, disembarked from the plane.
It was more an escort than protection, as the two bodyguards followed Qin Lan every step of the way.
"Sister!" Qin ngfan hurried over at this mont.
Seeing Qin ngfan, Qin Lan's face revealed a rare smile.
Then, Qin Liang said with a smile, "Xiao Lan, get in the car; Young Master Zhou Ci is waiting for you."
```
Upon hearing Qin Liang's words, Qin Lan's face slightly changed, "It seems I haven't yet married into the Zhou family, why should I go to their house? I won't go."
Qin Liang's face changed slightly upon hearing Qin Lan's words, "Whether you go or not is not up to you, get Miss Qin into the car."
As his voice fell, the two bodyguards behind Qin Lan, without further ado, took her by the arms and started towards the car.
Qin ngfan's expression darkened, "Uncle, what do you an by this? Can't you think about Xiao Lan for a second? She's your own flesh and blood."
Qin Liang snorted coldly, "Since she knows she's a daughter of the Qin family, she must always be prepared to sacrifice."
With that, Qin Liang snorted coldly and walked toward the car.
Qin ngfan's face turned frosty, "If that's how it is, Uncle, then please don't bla your niece for offending you."
As she spoke, Qin ngfan was about to take action to snatch Qin Lan back.
However, just as Qin ngfan charged forward, suddenly two middle-aged n blocked her way.
"Miss Qin, please don't make this difficult for us," two experts said with a sinister smile, staring at Qin ngfan.
"Nascent Soul experts!" Qin ngfan's face changed upon seeing the two experts.
anwhile, Qin Lan had already been pushed into the car by the two bodyguards, and the vehicle sped away towards the Zhou residence.
The two Nascent Soul experts laughed coldly and also got into an adjacent car, following closely behind.
Qin ngfan bit her lip and stamped her foot furiously, but against two Nascent Soul experts, she was utterly powerless.
At this mont, Qin Lan felt as if her heart had died. She knew that once taken to the Zhou residence, she would be finished.
On her delicate face, tear after tear fell like broken pearls.
"Lin Chen, where are you? Are we even unable to et one last ti in this life?"
These days abroad, Lin Chen's figure filled Qin Lan's mind every day—the man who haunted her dreams.
If it weren't for him, Qin Lan would have long chosen death without hesitation; she was still alive only in the hope of seeing Lin Chen once more in this life.
"Hmph, Qin Lan, do you feel wronged marrying Young Master Zhou? What are you crying for?" Qin Liang snorted coldly.
"Qin Lan, let
tell you, in two days, that loser will be a dead man. You'll only find happiness with Young Master Zhou, understand? Forget that loser imdiately."
Qin Liang, of course, had heard about yesterday's events, but he had never thought highly of Lin Chen.
Even though Lin Chen had single-handedly destroyed the entire Li family, so what? In his eyes, Lin Chen was nothing more than a lowly peasant, a nouveau riche who was unworthy of his daughter.
Especially since Lin Chen had offended the Zhou family, in his eyes, Lin Chen was as good as dead. How could he possibly allow his daughter to marry a dead man?
Listening to Qin Liang, Qin Lan's expression turned colder, "Dad, you can say anything about , but you can't insult Lin Chen. He's a man who stands tall and proud."
Qin Liang laughed scornfully, "Stands tall and proud? Let
tell you, in two days, on the day of your wedding to Zhou Ci, Young Master Zhou will have a duel with Lin Chen. The man you're so proud of will soon be a dead man."
Hearing Qin Liang's words, Qin Lan's face instantly turned ashen.
"Right, once you get to the Zhou residence, take good care of Young Master Zhou. If you keep him satisfied, you'll have a more comfortable life in the future, understand?" Qin Liang said coldly.
Hearing Qin Liang's words, Qin Lan shivered violently. She even quietly slid the prepared poison into her sleeve, ready to end her own life.
"Lin Chen, I'm sorry, it seems we won't have a chance to et in this life. Let's et in the next one," tears glistened in Qin Lan's eyes.
