Chapter 30.2: — A Small Decoration - Not From Your Family
After the meal, Old Master Lin threw a folder to Lin Cheng and said, “These are some properties of our Lin family. Although they are not big properties, they were all left by your grandmother, and they are of great significance.
“Your second uncle was watching over it before, but the business situation was not ideal. You go and have a look. You can go this weekend,” the old man said.
On the side, listening to Old Master Lin’s nonsense, Butler Zhou lowered his head silently.
He knew that the properties that the old man asked Lin Cheng to see just now were actually several high-end restaurants owned by the Lin family.
These restaurants were located in different buildings owned by the Lin family, and it was true that they were very meaningful.
But to talk about ‘business situation’ was complete nonsense.
Except for the Lin family’s banquets and some receptions held by guests made through special reservations, those restaurants were usually not open to ordinary diners, so there was no ‘business situation’ to speak of.
The old man’s purpose in letting Lin Cheng go there this weekend was self-evident.
Lin Cheng took the information and looked over the documents, obviously guessing the old man’s intention.
“I’ll go take a look when I have time. As for the rest…” After a pause, Lin Cheng said calmly, “No need.”
“You—!”
“Do you think I can become a five-star chef in just two days?”
“….” This time, it was the old man’s turn to be frustrated.
“I’m afraid you’ll starve our little Momo,” Mr. Lin muttered in dissatisfaction.
Lin Cheng sat with Old Master Lin at the Lin’s house for a while, staring wide-eyed at each other, and then left.
When leaving the Lin’s house, Butler Zhou handed Lin Cheng a set of packed meals.
“Eldest Young Master, these are your favorite dishes. The old master specially asked the kitchen to pack them for you to take back to eat,” Butler Zhou said.
In fact, Old Master Lin’s original words were: ‘Let that boy take away all the unwanted leftovers.’
“Older people are sometimes prone to emotional outbursts. Eldest Young Master, please be more understanding,” Butler Zhou added.
“I know,” Lin Cheng nodded. After a pause, Lin Cheng said, “Speak more advice to him and let him think less about unrealistic things.”
The so-called ‘unrealistic things’, of course, referred specifically to Lin Momo’s case.
Hearing this, Butler Zhou was surprised but nodded. However, after thinking about it, he still couldn’t help but whisper, “I will enlighten the old master more, but… Eldest Young Master, have you ever thought that that child may really be yours?”
He has been working in this family for so long, Zhou Xing has rarely seen the old man be so certain about anything.
Moreover, the old man has already asked people to collect samples and prepare them for DNA testing of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo.
It was only that there were some minor troubles encountered along the way.
In order to prevent Lin Momo from finding out and scaring her, Old Master Lin originally planned to have people wait for Lin Momo and Lin Cheng to finish recording, then quietly look for some items that could be used as samples in the house where they lived.
What happened was, because Lin Cheng and Lin Momo cleaned the house too well before leaving, they couldn’t find even a single speck of dust, let alone enough samples for testing.
Lin Cheng glanced at Butler Zhou with an unfathomable expression and finally said firmly, “There is no such possibility.”
… …
On the other side, Lin Momo was brought by Zhou Qi to the place where she and her grandma lived.
After returning to the familiar place, Lin Momo finally recovered from the slight disappointment she felt because of being separated from Lin Cheng.
After saying goodbye to Zhou Qi, Lin Momo ran into the building.
When she reached the corridor, Lin Momo stopped.
She stuffed the mobile phone, as well as the piece of paper containing Lin Cheng’s phone number and the password to unlock the phone, into a gap between the pile of debris lying by the corridor to hide it, then resumed walking, now with careful steps.
When she arrived at the door of her home, Lin Momo placed her ear flush against the door and listened for a while. Confirming that Zhang Xiaoqiang was not there, she then ran back to pick up her phone and only then entered her home.
Liu Cuifang was the only one at home at this time.
Lin Momo looked happy when she saw that her grandma was able to walk now.
“Grandma, are your legs already healed?” Lin Momo asked in surprise.
“It’s okay.” Although there was still a slight limp when walking, it was no longer a problem. “I told them last week that I didn’t need any more help, but Xiao Chen insisted on paying another two weeks of rehabilitation fees for me. Isn’t this money used in vain?” Liu Cuifang said with some distress.
Lin Momo shook her head and said with relief, “Uncle Chen Yu only hopes that grandma’s leg can recover better.”
Lin Momo looked around and found that a few more items from their house were now missing. “Has anyone been here?”
Hearing this, Liu Cuifang sighed and said, “It was that bastard, of course.”
If she hadn’t received a call from her neighbor next door while she was at the rehabilitation center the day before yesterday, telling her that Zhang Xiaoqiang was breaking down their house’s front door, Liu Cuifang would not have rushed back in such a hurry.
“Did he come to rob grandma’s money again?”
“It’s okay. I put some of it with your Auntie Zhang next door in advance, so he only took away a little more than a hundred yuan.”
Originally, Liu Cuifang didn’t want to give Zhang Xiaoqiang a single yuan, but thinking that Lin Momo was going home soon, Liu Cuifang was worried that Zhang Xiaoqiang would come again to ask for money and make trouble for Lin Momo, so she left more than 100 yuan where Zhang Xiaoqiang could find it and sent him away.
“Let’s not talk about him anymore, how has Xiao Momo been doing this week? You didn’t cause trouble to others?” Liu Cuifang asked with concern.
“No,” Lin Momo shook her head and said, “I was good.”
Lin Momo talked to Liu Cuifang in high spirits about her recording the program these past days and some other interesting things. Of course, she spoke a lot about Lin Cheng.
“He gave me a little stuffed toy. Look!” Lin Momo took out the caterpillar treasure that Lin Cheng gave her from her bag and proudly showed it to Liu Cuifang.
“And! He also helped me get back the 11 yuan and 50 jiao that I lost from the police uncle.”
When Lin Momo’s money was robbed by the tobacco shop owner and she was framed as a thief, she was afraid that grandma would be worried, so she didn’t tell her the truth—only that she accidentally lost it.
So now, she could only say that Lin Cheng helped her find it back.
Hearing Lin Momo’s words, Liu Cuifang nodded. “Mr. Lin is a good man.”
Liu Cuifang didn’t have a mobile phone and didn’t know how to surf the Internet. She didn’t know how Lin Momo and Lin Cheng lived when they were away recording the show, but judging from Lin Momo’s appearance at this time, that Mr. Lin probably didn’t treat her badly and took good care of her.
Moreover, Liu Cuifang also knew that it was because of Mr. Lin that Chen Yu sent her to the rehabilitation center to get her legs treated and allowed her to recuperate.
“Yes!” Lin Momo nodded vigorously, smiling while hugging the ugly caterpillar in her hands.
Later, she hung the caterpillar on the small nail protruding on the wall above her bed.
The empty home finally had a small decoration.
