Chapter 568: Chapter 568: On Board with the Thieves

Lin Fanpeng felt like a tiger with wings, thinking he could immediately dominate the world.

Unfortunately, he was getting old. If only he were twenty years younger, wouldn’t it be better?

However, regarding the Gu Family, he was determined to succeed.

The Gu Family not only possessed a wealth rivalling that of a nation but possibly also harbored secrets to decelerating aging.

Thus, acquiring the Gu Family might bring unexpected surprises.

Qin Yize conversed indifferently with Lin Fanpeng and his second uncle.

After stealing a shy glance at Qin Yize, Lin Qinghuan went to the kitchen to help her aunt.

Qin Yize didn’t have a strong impression of Lin Fanpeng.

All he knew was that he lived in the suburbs of the capital and disliked being disturbed.

Was it a coincidence that these two people appeared at his uncle’s house today, or was it deliberate, or perhaps his uncle specifically invited them to meet?

At that moment, Qin Yize couldn’t determine, but he knew for sure that his uncle never acted without a purpose.

At that time, Qin Yize was quite disappointed.

He genuinely wished his uncle and cousin would simply run their business well without aspiring to make the Qin Family prosper.

He only hoped they would live the best life they could within their capabilities.

However, the situation at hand seemed different from what he had imagined.

Qin Yize clenched his fist, then casually released it.

He then learned from the conversation that his uncle had partnered with Lin Fanpeng in business.

He heard them claim that all their business was legitimate.

Furthermore, ten percent of the profits were donated to charity to support education in remote areas.

Qin Yize approved of this point.

The country still needed capable individuals to give back to the community.

However, since Qin Yize was inherently cautious, he spoke without giving anything away. He would offer help where it was appropriate but never where it was not.

Surprisingly, the dinner that evening was very harmonious.

Although in his heart, Qin Yize did not want to be wary of his uncle,

he had to be on guard because of Lin Qinghuan, a woman who persistently and cunningly targeted him.

Qin Yize had no choice but to be cautious.

So, before dinner, he openly called Luh Fei in front of everyone, asking him to come and pick him up in an hour and a half.

Because he had been drinking, he could not drive.

Qin Lang and Lin Fanpeng exchanged glances, showing neither disappointment nor shock.

Yet they were inwardly startled.

They had not expected Qin Yize to be so guarded against them.

Following through with their plans was going to be difficult.

However, they had not intended to do anything on that day anyway.

With such a well-known gathering, what could they possibly do?

After all, secrets don’t stay hidden forever.

It was merely a meeting to understand the situation better.

Moreover, the business partnership between Qin Lang and Lin Fanpeng was meant to be transparent.

At that moment, Lin Fanpeng was actually trying to get the Qin Family on board with them.

The first to join were Qin Lang and his son. He believed that once Qin Lang was on board, no matter how strong the Qin Family was, it would ultimately be drawn by him.

At that point, doing whatever he wanted would be as easy as flipping a hand.

So he was not in a hurry.

And having the Sect Leader by his side, Lin Fanpeng looked much healthier than he had earlier.

It seemed he was more confident about the future.
