Indeed, Lin Feng admired his own foresight. Just after he finished getting dressed, Lin Mei arrived. Originally, Lin Feng planned to check on Old Lin to see if something was wrong, but when the family doctor from the Lin family came, he was promptly ushered out along with Lin Mei.
Lin Feng could only express his helplessness. He knew that his relationship with Old Lin had not reached a certain level; after all, he saw that Lin Mei was also sent away.
However, Lin Feng was mistaken because the doctor had expelled both him and Lin Mei at Old Lin's request.
To become the family doctor of the Lin family, one not only needed excellent medical skills but also had to earn Old Lin's genuine trust. Thus, with just a glance from Old Lin, the doctor understood and proceeded to send both Lin Feng and Lin Mei away.
But why did Old Lin want to do this?
This was something that not only Lin Feng did not understand, but even Lin Mei was clueless about.
Only the two elders knew the reason.
At this moment, Old Lin was in high spirits, whispering and discussing matters with Grandma Lin.
"Yingzi, it really is true," Old Lin said excitedly to his wife.
"Yes, I saw it too. This child has finally come before us. He has suffered so much over the years," Grandma Lin said, unable to maintain her composure as tears streamed down her face.
"Sigh... what should we say to him?" Old Lin asked again.
"Are you foolish? It's uncertain whether he will accept us. Besides, the fact that this child has appeared is already a mystery," Grandma Lin replied.
"Yes, that's true. I will immediately gather all our resources tomorrow to investigate what this child has been through over the years," Old Lin agreed wholeheartedly. This was also what he considered after confirming Lin Feng's identity; otherwise, he wouldn't have sent both Lin Feng and Lin Mei away.
"Well, let's investigate carefully and make sure not to let him notice. At this time, we absolutely cannot act rashly; we need to slowly get in touch with this child. However, from what I see now, although this child has suffered, he should be a talent," Grandma Lin said, unable to hide her pride at the end.
The children of the Lin family are indeed not mediocre.
"Yes, this child is steady in his actions and remains calm in the face of challenges, but he does have a somewhat cynical personality," Old Lin also had a good impression of Lin Feng and accurately described his character at that moment.
"Sigh... without parents or elders by his side as he grows up, do you really expect him to carry an air of nobility? Speaking of which, we owe it to the child," Grandma Lin sighed as well. In her view, given that Lin Feng had lost his parents at a young age and managed to grow up to this point, it was already enough to make her very happy.
Because she lost her grandson, over the years she had been tracking some orphan-related criminal activities. The investigation revealed that due to their stubbornness in their hearts, these children grew up with some degree of psychological distortion, which was what Grandma Lin worried about the most.
Now it seems that her own grandson Lin Feng, although somewhat cynical, has turned out to be the best outcome possible.
"Well, let's take it slow." In the end, even someone as strong-willed as Old Lin could only nod and suggest taking things slowly.
"By the way, should we tell Mei'er this news?" Grandma Lin asked at that moment.
"It’s time to tell her. I hope Mei'er won't let me down," Old Lin said after pondering for a moment before making his decision.
Grandma Lin nodded; she naturally understood what Old Lin meant by "disappointment."
Although the Lin family had instilled in Lin Mei from a young age that there was another Young Master of the Lin family who was about her age, nearly twenty years had passed without any sign of this Young Master. Therefore, Old Lin was worried that Lin Mei might not actually want this Young Master to appear.
After all, as long as the Young Master of the Lin family did not show up, Lin Mei would be showered with love and attention. Although not biologically related, once both elders were gone, as long as the Young Master did not return, she would truly possess everything belonging to the Lin family.
In the face of such immense benefits, human nature is subjected to great tests.
What Old Lin hoped for was that Lin Mei would not harbor such thoughts. If she truly did have such thoughts, he would be very disappointed, and Lin Mei would be immediately destroyed.
Although the Lin family's group was handed over to Lin Mei, how could the Lin family's influence be limited to just one group? After all, Old Man Lin was still the head of the family, and perhaps even Lin Mei was unaware of the true depth of the Lin family's resources.
Not long after, Old Man Lin walked out of the room, clearly having recovered.
"Ah, Lin Feng, I made you worry. It seems swimming is off the table today. Another day, Grandpa will take you fishing, alright?" Now that Old Man Lin knew Lin Feng's identity, he naturally added "Grandpa" when speaking to him. However, he thought it wasn't the right time to acknowledge Lin Feng as his grandson yet, so he spoke directly to him.
"Ah, it's good that you're fine, Old Man Lin. By the way, since we've already delayed this morning, I wonder if Lin Dong is going to the company today?" Seeing that Old Man Lin was alright, Lin Feng realized it was inappropriate for him to stay any longer. However, he was still hoping for a day off, so he subtly suggested whether Lin Mei had to work today.
Because if Lin Mei didn't have to work, as her personal assistant, Lin Feng wouldn't have to work either.
Old Man Lin was quite perceptive; at this point, he understood what Lin Feng meant and quickly nodded. "Ah, you rascal, I'll give you a day off. Mei'er asked me for leave last night and didn't want to go to the company. It's fine; let you two young ones relax for a day."
Now that Old Man Lin knew that Lin Feng was his own grandson, he adopted a completely unconcerned attitude towards Lin Feng's carefree demeanor. He felt he owed this child a lot over the years and couldn't let him recognize him immediately. What requests could he not agree to?
Old Man Lin took this opportunity to win over Lin Feng, but Lin Mei was not pleased. She was a workaholic and thought to herself that she hadn't asked for a day off at all; it was clearly Grandpa who insisted she couldn't go to work today.
Just as she was about to say something, her grandmother had already pulled her hand from behind. Unable to resist, Lin Mei had no choice but to suppress what she wanted to say.
"Oh, that's good then. I'm leaving now; see you tomorrow." Lin Feng had a vague feeling that something was about to happen but couldn't pinpoint what it was. After thinking for a moment without clarity, he decided not to dwell on it—whatever comes will come; he would just leave for now.
After saying that, Lin Feng left with a carefree demeanor.
Once Lin Feng left, Old Man Lin's expression turned serious as he headed to his study.
"Grandma, what's wrong with Grandpa?" Lin Mei asked her grandmother curiously.
"Mei'er, come with Grandma to your Grandpa's study; I have something to discuss with you," Grandma Lin said to Lin Mei at that moment.
Just now, Grandma Lin intended to greet Lin Feng, but after realizing Lin Feng's identity, she was afraid of revealing too much in public and decided not to speak to him at all, her eyes filled with affection instead.
At this moment, she felt quite troubled. Although she knew that she couldn't recklessly acknowledge Lin Feng right now, as it might provoke backlash, it was still hard to bear the fact that her long-lost grandson was right in front of her, yet she couldn't even say hello. This feeling was indeed quite unpleasant.
"Grandma, is there something important?" Lin Mei asked curiously upon hearing her grandmother's words, sensing that something significant was about to happen.
"Come on, it's a matter of great importance for our Lin family. You'll understand when we get there," Grandma Lin said, looking at Lin Mei with a complex expression before letting out a sigh.
"Okay." Lin Mei stopped guessing. She was wholeheartedly devoted to the Lin family and wasn't afraid that Grandpa would be unfavorable towards her, so she supported her grandmother as they walked towards Grandpa's study.
When they arrived there, Lin Mei was surprised to find that the door to Grandpa's study was actually open—a sight she had never seen before in her life. She tightened her grip on her grandmother's hand and stepped into the study.
Inside the study, however, she found that Grandpa wasn't sitting in his office chair by the desk; instead, he was at the sofa, preparing to brew tea.
"Grandpa, I can do it," Lin Mei said quickly as she helped her grandmother to the sofa and prepared to make tea.
"No, Mei'er, you sit down. Today, Grandpa will brew the tea," Grandpa insisted on making the tea himself.
Hearing this, Lin Mei understood that something significant must be happening today. She quietly sat down and waited for Grandpa and Grandma to speak.
Lin Mei knew that Grandma must also be aware of what was going on today.
After a long while, Grandpa carefully brewed the tea and picked up a cup. He then said to Lin Mei, "Mei'er, try it. It's been a long time since you've had tea brewed by Grandpa, hasn't it?"
"Yes," Lin Mei replied and first handed a cup of tea to her grandmother before taking one for herself.
Seeing Lin Mei's actions, Grandpa nodded approvingly; this girl had always been so considerate.
"Grandpa, just tell me what it is," Lin Mei said while sipping her tea.
"Lin Mei, do you remember that your grandma has always told you about a Young Master from the Lin family who has been lost to the outside world?" Grandpa Lin thought for a moment before finally speaking.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mei's teacup trembled slightly, and then she replied, "Yes, that's true."
Although Lin Mei tried to keep her tone calm, she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
Is this moment finally here? Lin Mei knew the answer.
"Now, your grandma and I are very happy that this Young Master has been found. It's not too late for everything," Grandpa Lin said, noting that Lin Mei's expression was as he expected.
Although Lin Mei had suspected this for a long time, she found herself at a loss for words at this moment.
She understood that once this Young Master was found, her status would naturally decline sharply. This was not anyone's intention; it was simply reality.
But she had known this since she was young. She realized that she shouldn't be reluctant about the arrival of this Young Master; on the contrary, she should be happy.
However, being a woman, she felt conflicted.
