261 She is Alive
Lin Hong walked outside the building with calm, but inside he was feeling extremely nervous. However, every time he felt like that, he would think of one person and all that left was calmness. In front of that person, there was nothing he could do.
"Representative Hong, please follow us."
Lin Hong nodded. With the warning he had given to the Tian family before; he was sure that they wouldn't look for trouble anymore. At least, he could rest assuredly that they wouldn't make things difficult to him for the time being.
It didn't mean that he can relax. After all, he knew that until the job here was done, he couldn't get away.
"That emperor sure is something."
Originally, he still has around 4-5 months before reaching 16 and got out from the prison. However, the emperor suddenly called for him to the palace. Upon hearing what he wanted, he felt suspicious, what happened to the Lin family and most importantly, his father?
Gathering the news, he found out that the Lin family was no more. Lin Tang has already gone in the street, and his mother was executed a few weeks before. The emperor told him that he would give him anything he wanted should he accomplish this mission.
Lin Hong sneered. What did he want? His wish was to meet with his sister again, but could that emperor fulfill it? His younger sister disappeared along with her husband because of the war. He just wanted to finish his task calmly and after this, disappear from the Ming Kingdom.
Getting into his residence, he stopped in the living room. A person was already sitting there calmly.
"General Soujin, if you have arrived, why don't you give any news?" Lin Hong tone was calm, without any ripple.
"I don't have any obligation to tell you. When is the meeting?"
"Since you have come, it's better to be faster. That is unless you don't wish to meet with Lady Ni, " Lin Hong answered.
"You're not afraid of me?"
Lin Hong looked towards Soujin. Why should he afraid of the other party? Although he was a general and all, he didn't feel that there was any need to afraid of him. If there was anyone whom he feared, that will only be one person.
"I don't."
"What if I killed you here to extend the time needed for the negotiation?"
"Feel free to do it, " Lin Hong answered.
Soujin did want to kill the representative, but if the other party was this boy, he wouldn't do it. He knew that the other party was someone whom Jun Min had let off after some incident. He didn't know the reason, but since Jun Min wanted him alive, he would do the same.
"You can arrange the meeting, but after that, you need to get away from Kai Kingdom, " Soujin answered."Give an excuse or what and go away from here."
"Is there any reason for that, General Soujin?"
"I will make the entire capital in chaos."
The eye of Soujin was calm and composed, but there was a trace of fury inside it. Lin Hong knew that it was not his place to probe into Soujin decision, but he too didn't really have anywhere to go.
Aside from his sister and mother, he didn't have anyone he cares about. However, his mother was gone and there was no news about Lin San. Besides, he still has to report to the Jun Family, which he would do after he got news about his sister.
Although he knew that Jun Min was reported dead, he still didn't want to make an enemy out of Jun family. Their courage to separate themselves from the Ming Kingdom had shown him that even after losing such an important figure, they were still something.
Soujin knew what the other party thought."Your sister is in my territory. Go meet her later."
Lin Hong eyes lit up. His sister was still alive? Soujin was not lying. Lin San and Ming Xiao were in his territory, located in a save residence. Ming Xiao had told him that he didn't want to get involved, so he let them have some peace and didn't disturb them.
"Re.. really?" He felt that the hope that was about to extinguish was suddenly lit up.
"Yes. You can meet with them after you finish your job."
Them? Lin Hong knew that his sister was married to Ming Xiao from the news he gathered before his departure. Does it mean she was still living well with her husband? He almost couldn't resist to not smiling as he bowed down in deep gratitude towards the general.
"Thank you General."
This time, Lin Hong no longer felt like before when he didn't really care about what happened to him. He wanted to meet with his sister again, and then he would fulfill his promise.
"You should give your thanks to Jun Hua too, " Soujin added.
Ling Hong acknowledged it before going out of the room excitedly to do his job. If people didn't know, they would think that he has suddenly turned into a completely different person just from going home once.
Ling Hong was really eager to finish his job here. He wanted to quickly finish everything up and met with his sister again. After nearly two years not meeting, he wondered how much she had changed to and what kind of man her husband was.
After arranging for everything, Lin Hong sent a message to Tian family that Soujin would visit them in the next two days. The entire residence was in chaos because of the news and they prepared everything meticulously to welcome the arrival of Soujin, not knowing the real condition of the general.
