Chapter 144 Fingers intertwined
The sound of the car engine was in my ears and my phone was in my pocket.
Xie Jin glanced at the old man with his eyes closed, quietly took out his cell phone, and prepared to send a message to Lin Xiu, asking her not to come to the auction.
As soon as the screen lit up, an old voice came from the other side.
"Xiao Jin, why are you so distracted?"
"grandfather."
Xie Jin was so startled that he almost dropped his phone.
The old man opened his eyes, and his sharp and steady eyes shot towards him, as if he could easily see through his thoughts.
Facing this look, Xie Jin gritted his teeth, knowing that he had to make a decision, and begged: "Grandpa, can't you let Lin Xiu go? I did it, and I also did the Cheng family. It has nothing to do with her."
"Hmph, Xiaojin, let her go? That depends on what others think." The old man said in a heavy voice, his tone angry.
"grandfather...."
Xie Jin knew that his mouth felt bitter.
Cheng Hai knew the grandfather and rescued Lu Qiang out of favor. Later, an investigation into Lu Qiang's information showed that Lin Xiu was a poor orphan with no special talents.
Most importantly, through clues they found out that Lin Xiu was the mistress of a senior executive of the Collar Group.
This news was like a bolt from the blue at home.
As soon as the news got through, he was called back home for questioning, and his father said that he was shameless and had no judgment of others, and was standing up for a lover.
Grandpa allowed the Cheng family to go to the auction today to fulfill the favor they had in the past and to save the face of the Xie family.
Because of Lin Xiu's identity, it would undoubtedly be a slap in everyone's face. Covering it up would cause the family's reputation to plummet, so it would be better to express the attitude in public.
Can......
Xie Jin clenched the phone in his hand and lowered his eyelashes.
No matter what, even if he had to beg his brother to do it, he would let Lin Xiu leave Hai City safely.
Because, this is what he owes.
Since you have chosen to bring people into this circle, you should at least protect them.
"Xiao Jin, don't do anything to embarrass the Xie family again. This matter will soon be known to everyone." The old man warned sternly.
"hehe."
Xie Jin had a forced smile, but his eyes were determined.
At the entrance of the auction, the girl stood there looking around.
Lin Yi parked the car and walked over: "Ms. Lin, it's parked."
"Yeah, let's go in."
Lin Xiu nodded with a bright smile, but she was wondering about Xie Jin.
The promise to come together was not fulfilled and I still haven’t seen him.
Thinking about it, she kept walking.
The auction evening was held at the Liu family's villa. The lights were bright everywhere and there were reporters taking pictures.
When they saw Lin Xiu appear, many people noticed and exclaimed in surprise.
"Look, is that a star?"
"I don't know her, she's pretty, let's take a picture first!"
The sound of discussion was heard, and the next second the flash light shone. Lin Xiu frowned and backed away from Lin Yi.
The two quickly blocked Lin Xiu's way and said, "Please stop filming. We are not celebrities."
Lin Yi's voice was deep and his tone was stern, which was quite intimidating.
Looking at the two people in black clothes, no matter how stupid the reporter was, he knew that these were not some little stars.
It seems that this is a rich second-generation, with both money and good looks, which is really enviable.
Reluctantly looking away, they put down their cameras and turned to take pictures of Xu En at the entrance.
Xu En's face froze for a moment, and then without looking at Lin Xiu, he turned and walked into the lobby.
She didn't want to say hello. It was because of Lin Xiu that she got the second female role, and now she was ridiculed by Xiang Di's other women.
And it was clearly she who wanted to take pictures just now, but all the reporters went to take pictures of her!
But she couldn't do anything to the other party.
"Hello, please show me your invitation." The waiter said respectfully.
"it is good."
Lin Xiu opened the email on her phone. The staff scanned it and bowed, "Please come in."
"Uh-huh."
Lin Xiu nodded, she took a step forward, and just as she was about to get in, the roar of the car sounded again.
I stopped and looked back, it was Xie Jin.
He jumped out of the car and saw that her face had become obviously nervous. He ran over quickly and said, "Follow me."
He grabbed Lin Xiu and said anxiously.
Grandpa didn’t know what Lin Xiu looked like, so he took her away now.
"Why are you suddenly like this? What's wrong with you?" Lin Xiu was puzzled and didn't understand.
Xie Jin looked embarrassed. He turned around to look at the old man who had just gotten out of the car and whispered, "The Cheng family already knows your identity. They won't let you go."
Her identity???
Cheng family?
It seemed that something happened in the past two days that he didn't know about. With a slight turn of his eyes, Lin Xiu calmed down.
No matter what the other party knows, I will no longer be afraid.
She has the biggest trump card!
"Xie Jin, what are you doing?"
The old man was leaning on a cane, his eyes fell on Lin Xiu, he saw through everything and frowned deeply.
"Grandpa, you go in first."
"This must be Miss Lin!" The old man looked at Lin Xiu and said with certainty.
It turned out to be Grandpa Xie Jin, the elder.
Although the atmosphere seemed off, Lin Xiu nodded: "Hello."
Calling him grandpa is too intimate, and I don’t know his position, so I can only use “you” instead.
Looking at Xie Jinru facing a powerful enemy and the old man opposite, Lin Xiu guessed that Cheng Wei and the Xie family must have something going on, otherwise it would be hard to say.
"Since you are here, bring your friend in!" Mr. Xie tapped his crutch and spoke in a normal tone.
Hearing this, Xie Jin's face turned pale.
His eyes darkened, and the next second he seemed to have made some decision. He held Lin Xiu's hand, then interlocked their fingers and looked at his grandfather.
"Just listen to grandpa," he said.
"You...cough cough."
Old Master Xie was so angry that he coughed twice and wished he could beat his grandson to death.
Trying to save a woman by destroying the family's reputation is simply nonsense.
Being obsessed with beauty, he is useless!
The palms are warm and dry, conveying a sense of strength.
Lin Xiu turned around and found that Xie Jin's usually flamboyant face was rarely serious, resolute and decisive, which made people unable to help but get close to him.
My guess was half confirmed.
It seems that today's auction is a Hongmen Banquet for her!
After thinking for a moment, she smiled and broke free from his hand: "Xie Jin, I'm fine."
"Don't move, I'll let go. Do you know what you'll encounter when you go in today?"
Xie Jin spoke in a deep voice, his eyes calm and murderous.
Because, Lin Xiu may not be able to leave this house at all!
Even if she was the favored mistress of a senior executive of the Coller Group, in the eyes of those people, women in the entertainment industry were still objects that could be manipulated at will.
If the Cheng family didn't say anything, Liu Linzhou would not let go of this opportunity.
Furthermore, Lin Xiu's appearance was enough to make those people want revenge and do something...
He didn't dare to think any further. No one understood the dark side of the upper world better than he did.
Whenever I think of the helpless girl asking for help, those eyes no longer have a smile, and the interesting soul becomes withered, I feel dark in my heart.
So, he can't let go.
However, the girl struggled to break free.
He wanted to say something, but the gentle voice eased his anxiety.
"Go and help your grandfather. He doesn't look well. I can do it by myself." Lin Xiu smiled.
"Can...."
"I can handle it, don't worry." Lin Xiu comforted.
She is not afraid of dangers or dangers.
What's more, there are bodyguards there, and there are new people coming today, so she must go. This is also the first step to open up the upper class.
Mr. Xie's expression improved a lot after listening to the conversation between the two people, and this time he looked at Lin Xiu with some satisfaction.
He knows when to advance and when to retreat, no wonder he is favored.
It's just a pity, if she was really a lady from a noble family, Xie Jin would still like her...
Unfortunately, there is no if.
