She has a slender waist and delicate bones, and is able to seduce the ascetic horse.

Chapter 72 They are all tough

Looking up from this angle, Shen Jiaojiao could just barely see the man's thin jawline and his Adam's apple that kept rolling as he spoke.

As she watched, her face suddenly felt hot and she hurriedly looked away.

The last time I saw it up close was on the bed...

Meng Hui noticed the movement and glanced down at her.

From the middle of the dark hair, there are two red ears, so small and delicate that people can't help but reach out and pinch them.

Meng Hui's eyes darkened, and the fingers holding his round shoulders tightened slightly.

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the big palm on her shoulder without knowing why.

When Master Lin saw Meng Hui defending her, he couldn't calm down and immediately questioned him.

"She dared to watch my nephew being strangled yesterday. It shows that he is very strong and not weak at all!"

"It was Lin Zhen who committed the crime first, and he deserves to suffer."

Meng Hui sneered slightly and stared at Master Lin.

There was no extra expression on his face, only a hint of indifference.

Master Lin was choked. He didn't expect Meng Hui to be so disrespectful, and his face instantly turned ugly.

Mrs. Meng originally wanted to smooth things over and scold her adopted daughter a few times to lighten the atmosphere, but when she saw Meng Hui giving her a sideways look, she immediately did not dare to speak.

Seeing that something was wrong, Mr. Meng hurriedly said, "Oh, my son is not listening to what he says. Brother Lin, please be patient, but..."

As soon as the words changed, the voice became sharp.

"It's just that A'hun has a bad temper. She saw with her own eyes what the Lin family boy did that day. If there is no blood spilled on the spot, it is considered merciful!"

Master Lin was so angry that he was half-dead by these words. He didn't expect that everyone in the Meng family was a hard-nosed person.

He refused to take soft and hard advice, and refused to hand him the steps.

At this time, Mrs. Lin spoke.

"Are you the new helmsman of the Meng family? Not bad, really good." He walked up to Meng Hui and patted him on the shoulder.

"Anyone who is willing to protect his sister is a bloody man. No wonder he can lead the Meng family to a higher level."

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.

Hearing this compliment, Meng Hui could only calm down and said, "You are joking, I'm just lucky."

Old Mrs. Lin shook his head and sighed: "It's not just luck. No wonder the Meng family has spread its business all over the country in just a few years!"

The originally tense atmosphere was relieved by a few words from Mrs. Lin.

For a moment, Mr. Meng didn't know what to say, so he could only praise him.

"My Ah Hui has been independent since she was a child. She doesn't need to be taught, she just knows it right away."

Old Mrs. Lin stared at Meng Hui and said hello several times, then glared at Mr. Lin, "I came here today to apologize, why are you so anxious and angry?"

Meng Hui is nearly 20 years old and has not yet married or taken any concubines. If he can establish a relationship with the Meng family today, he can ensure that the Lin family will have no worries for a hundred years!
Master Lin understood the deep meaning in his father's eyes and quickly borrowed the donkey from the slope.

"I also got distracted for a moment and always felt sorry for my younger brother. Look at my miserable nephew. His lifeblood has been cut off and he will not be able to continue his incense in the future..."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and sighed deeply, portraying the image of a good brother and a good uncle in a profound way.

Mrs. Meng stepped forward to comfort her: "Mrs. Lin has always loved the younger generation. She must have felt uncomfortable when she saw her yesterday..."

"Exactly, Zhuo Jing cried so hard yesterday that her eyes were swollen. Mrs. Meng has always been on good terms with her, so she came to the Lin Mansion to persuade her when she had time."

Mrs. Meng nodded repeatedly and agreed.

"Tsk, why is life so miserable?" Meng Hui sneered and narrowed his stern eyes slightly, "He just lost his life. If he succeeds, how can my Jiaojiao survive?"

These words brought the atmosphere to zero again.

Meng Huiyou thought it was not enough and continued to ridicule.

"He clearly wanted to force Jiaojiao to death. I didn't ask him to save his life for the sake of the Lin family."

Shen Jiaojiao's face turned red and she glanced at her sworn brother.

Seeing the man with a serious face and shouting "My Jiaojiao" seriously, her mouth felt inexplicably dry and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

After hearing this, Mr. Meng nodded in agreement.

"Jiaojiao is the apple of my eye. The Lin family should be lucky that Ah Hui arrived in time, otherwise it would not be as simple as a mere evil root." Mr. Lin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He was about to refute, but was stopped by the old man.

The old man ordered people to carry Lin Zhen up and slap Lin Zhen in front of everyone.

The force was so strong that Lin Zhen's entire face was slapped to the other side, and blood flowed faintly from the corner of his mouth.

"what!"

Meng Wan was so frightened by this scene that she screamed and closed her eyes tightly, not daring to look.

Meng Hui looked down at Shen Jiaojiao, wanting to protect her in his arms, but found that she was staring expressionlessly at the man on the stretcher.

Meng Hui's heart sank, and he took her into his arms worriedly and rubbed her head.

"Don't be afraid."

Shen Jiaojiao's lips moved, trying to say that she wasn't afraid, but she didn't say it in the end.

She just leaned against the man's chest quietly.

It's like hiding in a safe haven.

"Lin Zhen is already a disabled person. We, the Lin family, cannot drive him out, so we can only keep him for the time being."

As he said that, the old man glanced at Shen Jiaojiao.

"We have already interrogated him and Lin Zhen said that he did not know where the letter came from and that it appeared inexplicably at his location."

"He mistakenly thought that a woman was asking him to meet, so he went to the appointment happily. Unexpectedly, he was fascinated by the aphrodisiac fragrance as soon as he entered the room."

Shen Jiaojiao frowned, feeling that there was something wrong with this rhetoric.

Meng Hui's deep voice sounded, "How can the Lin family determine that it is an aphrodisiac incense? This incense is colorless and odorless, so it is usually difficult to detect it, right?"

"Zhuo Jing was also at the scene that day, so he sent someone to take a look." Mr. Lin explained carefully, "My Lin family is very familiar with this fragrance, and I noticed something strange as soon as I entered."

"This fragrance..." Meng Hui's eyes narrowed slightly, "Is it from the Lin family?"

Master Lin sighed, "The incense was indeed developed by the Lin Family Incense Shop. Due to material issues, the Lin Family does not have any inventory, except for a sample placed in the incense shop..."

"The sample was lost?"

"lost."

"Lin Zhen stole it?"

"Impossible." Mr. Lin shook his head repeatedly, "The incense shop is always managed by Zhu Jing, and the incense can't be found in other rooms."

"Mr. Lin, what you mean is that the eldest and second eldest members of the Lin family jointly set up a trap?"

Meng Hui pursed her lips, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.

"As far as I know, the second girl of the Jiang family and Shen Jiaojiao were walking together at that time. Is it possible that your target was the girl of the Jiang family?"

Seeing him expressing his doubts so bluntly, Master Lin's face instantly turned ugly.

"Master Jiang thinks so too? No wonder Master Jiang has been refusing to meet me..." Master Lin murmured to himself.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang is tracing the whereabouts of that maid." Meng Hui put away his smile.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Zhen lying on the ground.

"If this is the Lin family's plan, neither the Meng family nor the Jiang family will show mercy."

Lin Zhen was so frightened that he held his head and cried, "It's not me! It's not me!"

"The Lin family is standing upright and ready for you to investigate!" Mr. Lin also insisted on the Lin family's innocence.

Old Mrs. Lin held down Mr. Lin's hand and said, "Never mind this for now, we are here today to apologize to the eldest lady of the Meng family."

As he said that, he faced Shen Jiaojiao and continued to write to the end.

"It is my Lin family who failed to educate people well. I am grateful to Miss Meng family for her magnanimity and sparing Lin Zhen's life."

Shen Jiaojiao was startled and buried her head in Meng Hui's chest without saying anything.

Mrs. Meng accepted the Lin family's apology for her and sent the person out together with Mr. Meng.

After the people left, Shen Jiaojiao raised her head.

"Brother, Lin Zhen is lying!"

She clenched Meng Hui's collar with both hands, looking panicked.
