Finally, after some contemplation, Kong An decided to send this information to Lin Mei. On one hand, it would help drive Lin Feng out of the company; on the other hand, it would also serve as a favor to the Golden Dragon Group. He thought to himself, "I’m essentially helping you guys at Golden Dragon Group identify the mole, so you should owe me a favor."
Of course, Kong An chose to ignore how he obtained Lin Feng's information through such means. This wasn't his first time doing something like this; he didn't need to say anything or exert himself to find the relevant information about Lin Feng from the Golden Dragon Group's database and pass it on to Lin Mei. He believed that with Lin Mei's intelligence, she would notice the discrepancies between this information and what Lin Feng had previously provided to the company, and she would handle Lin Feng appropriately.
As for Kong An, he was waiting for Lin Feng to be established before stepping in to deal with him.
Hmph, as long as Lin Feng wasn’t a member of the Lin family, it wouldn’t be difficult for Kong An to take care of him.
Of course, Kong An was relatively clever for a wealthy heir, but he had underestimated one crucial point: the level of affection that Old Lin and Lin Mei had for Lin Feng.
Thus, it was not long after Lin Mei arrived at her office that she received a package.
Lin Mei didn’t think much of it and opened it casually.
Although she was aware that some assassins might place bombs in packages to kill their targets, she also knew that this package had passed through security checks at the gate before reaching her hands. Therefore, she felt at ease as she unwrapped it.
Upon opening it, Lin Mei frowned.
The contents were indeed related to Lin Feng; more specifically, they were about his true background. This information differed from what Lin Mei’s company had on file regarding Lin Feng.
In other words, Lin Feng had forged documents to enter the company.
Under normal circumstances, if it were discovered that Lin Feng had falsified documents, Lin Mei would have enough evidence to suspect him of being an industrial spy infiltrating the company. However, now that she realized something was amiss, Lin Mei immediately called Grandpa.
If this were merely a matter of handling an industrial spy issue, Lin Mei could manage it herself. But since this involved Lin Feng, she knew she couldn’t handle it alone.
On the phone, Old Lin listened carefully to everything Lin Mei had to say and then replied, “Don’t act rashly; wait for my call.”
Finally, before Lin Mei could respond, Old Lin added, "Even if it's true, our Lin family owes him."
The implication was clear: no matter what, they could not allow Lin Feng to come to any harm.
After saying this, Old Lin hung up the phone without waiting for Lin Mei's agreement.
Now that he finally had news about Lin Feng and learned of this matter, he was eager to uncover the truth.
Before long, the person Old Lin had sent to investigate Lin Feng's background returned and reported to him before leaving again.
Holding the information in his hands, Old Lin's hands trembled slightly. This was indeed Lin Feng's file, containing his real information.
Just moments ago, Old Lin had already read through the file several times. He was very interested in everything Lin Feng had done in the past. Of course, this file only contained information that Lin Feng had not deliberately concealed. He had thought that He Ting would implement certain confidentiality measures when he infiltrated the Golden Dragon Group, but unexpectedly, Old Lin managed to uncover it.
What Lin Feng did not know was that even if He Ting wanted to keep things confidential, Old Lin's investigation rendered her efforts meaningless.
Looking at the file in his hands, Old Lin realized that what Lin Mei had just said was true: Lin Feng had indeed hidden his identity and entered the Golden Dragon Group, gaining their trust as well.
Seeing this, Old Lin couldn't help but feel both amused and exasperated. This kid really had some skills. It wasn't particularly difficult to infiltrate the Golden Dragon Group, but gaining the trust and reliance of both himself and Lin Mei without revealing his identity was no easy feat—yet somehow he managed it.
If it were anyone else hiding their identity to work within a group and gain the trust of higher-ups, once discovered by Old Lin, their fate would likely not be good; they would at least be crying in rhythm.
Given the power of the Lin family, having a corporate spy infiltrate the Golden Dragon Group was akin to seeking skin from a tiger—very dangerous.
However, since Lin Feng was now a treasure in Old Lin's hands, how could anything happen to him?
Still, while he had his own considerations, he knew he needed to discuss it with the family.
Grandma Lin had long ago told Old Lin not to discuss matters related to the group with her, as she was just a woman and found it too exhausting to think about such things.
However, this matter concerned her beloved grandson, so Old Lin dared not hide it from her. He felt guilty towards her regarding this issue, knowing that if he truly kept it from her, she might never speak to him again.
Despite appearing to be a powerful figure, Old Lin was also somewhat henpecked, at least in certain aspects.
This was also the wisdom of Grandma Lin; being able to manage someone like Old Lin so well was not something an ordinary woman could achieve.
Thus, at this moment, Old Lin eagerly dialed his wife's number.
"Hello... Is this about Lin Feng?" The call connected quickly, as Old Lin guessed that his wife had been waiting by the phone.
Hearing his wife's anxious tone made Old Lin feel even more justified in his decision. Seeing her worry, he realized that if he had kept this information from her, the consequences could have been severe.
However, while he silently praised his own wisdom, he did not voice it. Instead, he said, "Yingzi, Lin Feng had a little accident. I was just about to discuss how to handle it with you."
"What? An accident? Who let him have an accident? Which blind fool hurt my grandson?" Grandma Lin's anger flared up immediately upon hearing that Lin Feng had encountered an "accident."
Old Lin could swear that this was the first time in all the years he had known Yingzi that he had seen her so furious.
Usually composed and knowledgeable, when it came to issues concerning her grandson, she transformed into a fiercely protective mother hen—what a remarkable personality!
Though Old Lin felt a mix of emotions, he dared not express them. He continued, "It turns out that Lin Feng concealed his identity and altered his information to enter Golden Dragon Group and gained our trust."
Old Lin knew this sounded rather blunt, but he also understood that despite Grandma Lin's current emotional turmoil, she would never lose her rationality—especially now that there was hope with Lin Feng involved. Therefore, he spoke directly and hoped to get her opinion.
"Well, this matter must be handled carefully." Indeed, on the other end of the line, Grandma Lin had already grasped the general situation from Old Lin's words and sighed thoughtfully.
"What's the situation now?" Old Lin asked.
"Don't act just yet, let's keep everything as it is. By the way, you mentioned that Lin Mei told you about this?" Grandma Lin made a decision similar to Old Lin's and then recalled that Old Lin had mentioned earlier that Lin Mei seemed to have some news.
"Yes, that's right..." Old Lin replied, recounting how Lin Mei had given him information about Kong An and his interest in Lin Feng.
"Oh, Kong An, from the Kong Family?" Grandma Lin clearly recognized the name and inquired.
"Yes, a spoiled rich kid," Old Lin affirmed.
"This person has intentions toward our Lin Feng," Grandma Lin, being quite perceptive, immediately grasped Kong An's motives.
"Yes, I think so too. I plan to have Lin Mei brush him off for now and tell him we're investigating. That way, he won't take any action against Lin Feng for the time being," Old Lin had already thought through a plan and shared it with his wife.
"Alright, let's proceed like this for now. I hope he doesn't do anything reckless. Otherwise, a small Kong Family... hmph..." Grandma Lin understood that they could only handle it this way for now and couldn't reveal the truth to Lin Feng.
Old Lin naturally understood his wife's meaning. However, if such words came from him, it wouldn't matter much; while the Kong Family had some influence, they were no match for the Lin family. But hearing such words from his usually easygoing wife surprised him.
She was becoming more protective like a mother hen. Old Lin could only silently reflect on this in his heart.
"Old man, let me tell you, ten years ago, you already let Lin Feng down once. If you let him suffer again, I guarantee your family will be in chaos," before Old Lin could finish his thoughts, Grandma Lin firmly "threatened" him.
Indeed, Grandma Lin's words were a clear threat directed at Old Lin.
Old Lin understood the implication behind her words. If someone else threatened him like this, he might scoff or argue back. But facing his wife's threat, he could only stubbornly reply, "You don't need to threaten me; Lin Feng is my grandson, my only direct descendant."
"Well, at least you know what's good for you. When we get home tonight, I'll make you some soup," Grandma Lin's tone suddenly shifted after receiving Old Lin's response; she transformed into a caring wife and spoke softly to him.
"Uh..." Old Lin suddenly found himself at a loss for words, having forgotten to respond.
However, before he could answer, Grandma Lin had already hung up the phone.
This is Grandma Lin, a formidable woman who has managed to keep someone as powerful as Old Lin in check.
Seeing that the other party had hung up, Old Lin could only make a call to have his Secretary send a copy of the investigation materials to his wife. He knew she was eager to see them.
She wanted to know what kind of life Lin Feng had been living all these years without parents.
In fact, even Old Lin felt a bit teary-eyed when looking at Lin Feng's materials.
Being abandoned by a girlfriend due to lack of money? Getting drunk and crashing a car. These experiences should not be what the Young Master of the Lin family goes through.
Perhaps other people's children have faced such tragic experiences, but children from the Lin family should not have to endure this; this is what Old Lin stubbornly believes.
Although this belief may seem selfish and extreme—does it mean that other people's children are not children?—you must understand that in the eyes of this old man, he does not fear being called selfish for the sake of his beloved grandson.
Because love, in itself, is selfish.
