Chapter 874 Lin Tan Comes to Her Understanding
Lin Tan paused for a moment.
My resolve began to waver.
She was silent for a moment, but then she spoke her mind: "But I feel like I'm not good enough for him. He deserves someone better."
"What's your opinion on what's better?" Old Master Qin asked.
"She comes from a good family and is well-educated," Lin Tan said. "She is the daughter of a prominent family and the heir to the family business."
Old Master Qin: "But such people may not necessarily have the heart to sacrifice themselves for Qin Mo's safety."
Lin Tan pursed her lips.
“It’s easy to find daughters of prominent families with similar backgrounds.” Old Master Qin hoped she would see this clearly, “but there aren’t many people who can wholeheartedly consider Qin Mo’s interests. In the end, people who come together because of interests may also separate because of interests.”
Lin Tan hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
Grandpa Qin continued, "If you're worried about his mother's objection, I'll call her over later and have a proper talk with her so she won't object to your relationship."
Lin Tan stirred her hands together: "Do you really think Qin Mo and I are a good match?"
Grandpa Qin smiled and said, "It's very suitable."
Lin Tan: "Aren't you afraid I'll bring trouble and danger to Qin Mo?"
Old Master Qin: "Don't worry, Qin Mo has the ability to solve this."
Lin Tan was still hesitant.
"If the kind of danger you described were to actually occur one day, Qin Mo would most likely not blame you." Old Master Qin only hoped that she would come to her senses, "He would only be glad that he kept you by his side and didn't let you be with someone as dangerous as Huo Sinian."
“Mr. Qin…” Lin Tan’s heart was in turmoil.
"Just call me Grandpa Qin," said Grandpa Qin.
"Grandpa Qin."
"Um?"
Lin Tan pursed her lips.
Old Master Qin saw everything she did and bluntly exposed her, saying, "You deliberately sent Qin Mo away to tell me all this because you think I would stop you two from being together because of the reasons you gave?"
Lin Tan opened her mouth, but only managed to say two words: "Sorry."
She felt offended by her malicious speculation about others.
“There’s nothing to apologize for. If I were ten or twenty years younger, or even just one year younger, I might have really done what you said and stopped you from being together.” Old Master Qin genuinely acknowledged Lin Tan’s feelings. “But this year I’ve learned a lot, and I understand that sincerity is more precious than self-interest.”
He treated Qin Muchuan and Qin Muchi so well, but in return, they wanted to harm him.
He treated An'an so badly, yet she was still willing to keep him.
If he could do it all over again, even against everyone's opposition, he would let An'an manage the Qin Group and the Qin family, let her make all the decisions, and entrust everything to her.
With her managing the Qin family and Qin Group, they will surely become the number one wealthy family in Haicheng.
Ruan Ruan will be raised to be an heir from a young age. She will have a loving grandfather and parents, outstanding abilities, and will not experience those hardships or have such a difficult life.
"If you think I'm reliable, then listen to me." Old Master Qin sighed as he spoke. "Right now, I'm looking forward to you marrying Qin Mo."
Lin Tan did not speak.
Grandpa Qin: "So? Do you want my Qin Mo?"
Just as Lin Tan was about to speak, Qin Mo walked over. He took a few steps and stood in front of them, glancing at her first before looking at Old Master Qin: "What did you talk about?"
"Let Lin Tan leave you," Old Master Qin joked.
"Grandpa," Qin Mo said in a low voice.
Lin Tan never wanted to be with him in the first place.
If Grandpa tries to stop her again, she'll probably drift further and further away.
"Look at you like this," Old Master Qin joked, then added to Lin Tan, "You should still stay with him. If you refuse, he might come to your door every day and bother you, making it impossible for you to eat or sleep."
Lin Tan looked at Qin Mo.
Qin Mo happened to be looking at her as well.
"Let me think about it," Lin Tan said, offering only three words.
"Alright." Old Master Qin nodded in satisfaction and didn't pursue the matter further. "Since you're here, have lunch before you leave."
Lin Tan: "Okay."
In the time that followed.
Lin Tan chatted with Old Master Qin about other things.
Qin Mo sat nearby, watching the two chatting amicably, and he found it unusual that he couldn't quite figure them out.
Some time has passed.
Old Master Qin's phone rang.
Seeing that it was Jiang Ruan calling, he answered, "Ruan girl."
"Yes, I'm here."
"good."
As the last few words fell.
Grandpa Qin said to the two of them, "Let's go, Ruan'er and the others are back, and they want us to come over for dinner."
A short while later.
The group gathered together.
After not seeing each other for a while, Lin Tan greeted Jiang Ruan and the others and chatted for a while.
Lunchtime began.
Everyone began to eat.
The meal didn't last long.
About forty minutes later, everyone left the table.
Seeing Lin Tan looking preoccupied, Jiang Ruan walked over and stood next to her, greeting her, "Would you like to take a stroll in the garden to digest your food?"
“Okay,” Lin Tan replied with a smile.
Jiang Ruan took her there.
The two walked slowly along the way.
Lin Tan also took the initiative to ask about Jiang Ruan's recent situation: "Have you become very busy since you came here?"
"A little." Jiang Ruan did not deny it.
The more she learned about different industries, the more she had to do.
After all, the companies she had invested in before were starting to do well, and the two niche luxury brands that Uncle Li had given her were also being put into operation. Apart from her work at the Qin Group, she was quite busy with other things as well.
"And you?" Jiang Ruan looked at her. "Something on your mind?"
Lin Tan didn't hide anything: "I don't know if I should be with Qin Mo."
Jiang Ruan asked, "Should we or shouldn't we?"
Lin Tan briefly explained the matter.
After a brief moment of thought, Jiang Ruan replied, "If it were me, I would be with him."
Lin Tan glanced sideways.
We'll see what she says next.
"Mutual affection and care are rare things in this world." Jiang Ruan takes relationships very seriously. "I would never let an outsider ruin our happiness."
Lin Tan paused.
Something seemed to flash through my mind.
“Not being together may reduce some of the danger, but Qin Mo won’t be happy, and neither will you.” Jiang Ruan saw through it all. “The only one who will be happy is Huo Sinian. The sacrifice you made has benefited an outsider. Do you think it was worth it?”
Lin Tan was taken aback.
This was a perspective she had never considered before.
“Although there are dangers in being together, you two are happy when you are together,” Jiang Ruan continued. “Even if there are accidents or dangers, those things will only make you care about each other more.”
"What if Qin Mo gets into trouble because of me?" Lin Tan asked.
“If that day ever comes, the Qin family will be the first to not let Huo Sinian off the hook,” Jiang Ruan said. “At that time, all you need to do is stand in the position of the Qin family patriarch’s wife and lead everyone to seek justice for Qin Mo.”
This moment.
The question that had troubled Lin Tan for so long was finally answered.
She was thinking in the wrong direction from the very beginning.
"Do you have an answer now?" Jiang Ruan noticed the change in her eyes.
"I've got it." Lin Tan's mind suddenly opened up, and her eyes were full of gratitude as she looked at Jiang Ruan. "Thank you."
Jiang Ruan: "There's no need for thanks between friends."
Lin Tan smiled slightly.
Jiang Ruan told her, "If that day ever comes, I will stand with you and seek justice for Qin Mo, so you don't need to worry."
Qin Mo is the head of the Qin family.
He really died in an accident.
The Qin family's retaliation is beyond Huo Sinian's ability to bear.
Huo Sinian couldn't possibly be unaware of these things; he couldn't possibly have really killed Qin Mo.
