Chapter 1329: 1328 Guess who I am?
“The outfit you’re wearing today…” Tan Rou chose her words carefully, “is quite s.h.i.+ny.”
Zhuang Liu’s expression was as grim as a sky covered by dark clouds, and he said, “Tan Rou, I didn’t pick this outfit, my taste isn’t that bad.”
Tan Rou asked subconsciously, “Was it Xiao Mo who picked it out for you? Oh, it must have been him, his taste has always been poor.”
Xiao Mo, truly at a loss for words, had not actually chosen Zhuang Liu’s outfit that day, but it had been selected by his girlfriend, so how could he admit that his girlfriend’s taste was poor?
“Yes, my taste is terrible, I couldn’t pick out a proper outfit for the head of the Zhuang family.” Xiao Mo said, “Tonight when I get back, I’ll look at fas.h.i.+on magazines and strive to match the most suitable outfit for the head of the family.”
Zhuang Liu didn’t want to continue this topic, and he asked, “What about Mr. Lin? Hasn’t he arrived yet?”
Tan Rou checked the time, “We agreed to meet at seven, it’s only six-thirty now, they should still be on the way.”
Zhuang Liu hummed in acknowledgment and said, “Before they arrive, let’s discuss how we’re going to question him. If we ask him directly, he definitely won’t tell us the truth.”
Tan Rou and the others wanted to coax Mr. Lin’s true purpose out of him, wondering if he really was a business spy as Zhuang Liu had guessed.
“In vino veritas,” Xiao Mo suggested, “We can get him drunk and then question him, he will definitely tell the truth then.”
“What if he can hold his liquor well?” Tan Rou raised a concern, “Or what if he doesn’t drink at all? Then what will you do?”
“Perhaps we can emulate the method of the king of Laka, tie Mr. Lin up, and let him go after he’s told the truth,” Hang Wei said.
That plan was also vetoed by Tan Rou, “We are law-abiding citizens, we shouldn’t do anything illegal. If it were to succeed, that’s one thing, but if it fails, then I might as well close my company and make my employees sew in prison instead.”
“Mr. Lin is a very smart man, we can’t use force to question him,” Tan Rou said. “We’ll see when the time comes, he said he would give me a sum for translation fees, let’s first see what he’s actually going to give me.”
At seven in the evening, Mr. Lin and Prince Laka appeared on time at the entrance of the Capital Grand Hotel, and this time, Prince Laka brought only two bodyguards.
“Prince Laka, Mr. Lin, good evening!” Hang Wei greeted them at the entrance, “Miss Tan Rou is already waiting for you two in the private room.”
Mr. Lin asked, “Is it just us today?”
Hang Wei smiled slightly, “And Miss Tan Rou’s fiancé, Mr. Zhuang as well.” Tan Rou had already acknowledged Zhuang Liu as her husband, but they hadn’t held a wedding yet; others were unclear about the exact situation, so they still referred to Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu as fiancés.
Upon hearing that Zhuang Liu was also present, a smile appeared on Mr. Lin’s face, “Mr. Zhuang is here as well? Then I really came to the right place. It has been many years since I last saw Zhuang Liu, and I wonder if he still remembers me.”
“Do you know Mr. Zhuang?” Hang Wei asked.
Mr. Lin smiled again and said to Hang Wei, “No, let’s not reveal who I am just yet, let’s see if Zhuang Liu can guess my ident.i.ty.”
Hang Wei thought to himself, “Making Zhuang Liu guess your ident.i.ty, could you also be a prince of some country?”
However, he didn’t express this aloud, “Alright then, let’s let Mr. Zhuang guess later.”
Hang Wei led Prince Laka and Mr. Lin to the top-floor private room, which was a semi-open area with a gla.s.s roof, much like the greenhouse inside Tan Rou’s estate, very beautiful.
Mr. Lin was very pleased with the environment, and he said, “Although the food at the Capital Grand Hotel is terrible, their environment is indeed beautiful, and the decorations are very expensive, including the precious species of plants.”
“Mr. Lin seems to have a good eye,” Zhuang Liu approached Mr. Lin, “to instantly recognize that these plants are of precious species.”
Mr. Lin turned his head to glance at Zhuang Liu, then shook his head and said, “It seems I thought too much, you obviously don’t remember me.”
Zhuang Liu was puzzled, “Have we met before?”
Mr. Lin laughed, “Not only have we met, but we used to see each other every day.”
