Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 497 I’m begging you just leave

Lin Chen had a grim expression, and a violent storm was raging in his heart, he never expected things to develop to this point. Their shop was doing okay and many people had their eye on their successful business, but he still trusted that batch of servants because all of them were honest workers that they bought from the human slave traders, their documents were still in his hands to think that they would still betray them. He cannot say that he was the best boss out there but he was kind and understanding, he has treated the workers really well - to think he just raised a bunch of cruel and savage wolves beside him!

"It's my fault, I didn't pay attention to what was happening in the shop and wasn't careful enough, because of my incompetence such a thing happened." Lin Chen clutched his hands so tightly that there was a cracking sound. He was stupid enough to believe that he could run a successful business like his brothers alone and never asked for help, maybe if he took proper care of the shop together with his brothers there this wouldn't have happened. He was overconfident and thought that he could deal with the situation just like when he was at the time when he was going to deal with Lin Yi.

Everyone watched the quiet and guilty Lin Chen and exchanged a glance with each other, Lin Chen thought that they were blaming him for being so careless. And why wouldn't they? He had one job and yet he couldn't do it properly. And what's more, he didn't even ask for help and just did his own thing, if this wasn't being stupid then what was? If only he put his insecurities aside and boldly confessed that he was having troubles while taking care of the shop then maybe such a situation wouldn't have arisen.

" I am-" Lin Chen wanted to apologize but before he could get those words out, someone placed a warm hand on his head. Startled, Lin Chen looked up and his gaze met with Lin Jing who was peering down at him. Anger and concern outlined his brother's face but there was no blame in those eyes.

" stupid," said Lin Jing as he knocked on Lin Chen's forehead. Though he only said one word, Lin Chen's eyes turned sour, because he knew that his brother wasn't calling him stupid for not taking care of the shop properly but because he was stupid enough to believe that if he asked for his brothers' help, he will be seen as someone incapable.

Lin Jing didn't say anything further and Lin Chen didn't need him to say anything either, the two brothers had a tactic understanding.

On the other side, Lord Fang went ahead and knocked his cane on the gates of the prison. The guard who was on duty was once again disturbed and immediately jumped on his feet, he was just trying to calmly sleep was there any need for all this banging? Don't those two brats know that it was already past the time of their working hours? Enraged he was ready to hurl a myriad of curses but as soon as he pulled open the gates, all the curses were jammed in his throat and his face turned purple because of the sudden surprise that he just received.

He coughed and cleared his throat before pasting a welcoming smile on his face, " L...Lord Fei? H..how can I help you?"

Lord Fei calmly smiled and tipped his chin at the guard and said, " Won't you invite us for tea?"

Su Wan was sitting cross-legged with an expression of extreme focus on her face, with broken charcoal in her hand. She carefully accessed the thing in front of her before she inhaled a long breath and drew a cross on the ground before drawing a straight line and won the tic tac toe game that she was playing with her cellmate. " There you are! I won this one too so you can't back down again."

Because she was getting bored sitting in the prison doing absolutely nothing, Su Wan suggested playing a game with her cellmate. At first, the woman was a bit apprehensive as to why this young lady that was white as milk doing here but later on, as the two played together, despite their differences they started to get along.

" Ah, that girl won again." the prison warden who was responsible for keeping the order groaned

" You are the foolish one honestly, I told you that the girl has been winning every single game that she played but yet you have to bet on Gu Yao, now stop groaning and pay me the money that I won."

These wardens rarely got anything fun to do in the yamen, when they saw something good was happening they started to watch what was going on and then it didn't take long for them to start betting. The warden who lost made a face but still took out a tael and handed it to her partner, whatever a loss was a loss.

As soon as she handed the money the door that separated the prison and the front lobby was pushed open and then the officer that brought Su Wan to the yamen came rushing in and opened the door of Su Wan's prison in a hurry. He was so flustered that he didn't even see the two wardens who were looking at him weirdly.

" Ah, Miss Su…your family is here to take you, you can leave now" the officer put on his best flattering smile as he addressed Su Wan but the latter didn't even look up, a bit surprised, the yamen officer called out to Su Wan again," Miss Su?"

Su Wan looked up and then feigned a surprised expression. " oh dear, officer what are you doing here?"

The Yamen officer knew that Su Wan had heard what he said but was still acting ignorant felt a heavy pressure on his shoulder, he kind of had a feeling that sending this big Buddha wouldn't be as easy as bringing her in, yet he still smiled politely and said, " Miss Su, your family is here to pick you up so you can leave now."

Su Wan tilted her head with her brows cutely scrunched up as she said in a city voice, " But you said that I can't leave till morning."

The Yamen officer : (;′?｀)

Wiping the sweat on his forehead he smilingly answered though it was becoming hard to keep his smile. " Miss Su, please your family is waiting"

" But I am playing this game."

" I will play in your stead!" So just get out of this cell! I am begging you!
