Chapter 511: I Chose You Because You’re Clean

Mu Donglin gave a frosty laugh and replied, “Who would dare to doubt Mayor Lin? Only, are you sure that you want to get into a headlong clash with me?”

Having said this, he leaned over slightly and added quietly, “Let’s talk in private, Lin Ya.”

...

One was her big brother, the other was the man she loved deeply.

Lin Kerou didn’t wish for either of them to be hurt.

Mu Donglin’s conversation with Lin Ya went on for some time.

It had been two hours since they stepped into the study.

Lin Kerou felt extremely disturbed. When she saw how disappointed her parents looked, she lowered her head and sobbed. She did not speak a word.

In the study...

Mu Donglin’s expression was clouded over as he stood looking out through the full-length window.

He could see the winding roads that were like streams of flowing water.

From the city villa, one could observe Guang City’s incessant traffic.

From behind him came Lin Ya’s seemingly friendly voice. Mu Donglin, however, did not miss the subtle hint of threat and warning that it carried. “We, the Lin Family, will not tolerate such things. Even if I weren’t the mayor of Guang City, I wouldn’t allow you to treat any of my family members this way.

Mu Donglin could no longer tolerate it and raised his voice. “After all this talk, you just want me to marry Lin Kerou!”

“That’s right.” Lin Ya stood up. He placed both hands on the study desk and leaned his weight on them. There was a glint in his small eyes as he stared at the other man unflinchingly. “The Lin Family cannot afford to lose face, and similarly, nor the Mu Family.”

Seeing how furious Mu Donglin was, Lin Ya retreated slightly.

He loosened his tie and sat back down, looking relaxed with his jacket unbuttoned.

He continued in a casual tone, like how he would normally speak, “Kerou is sincere towards you. This will be a win-win situation for both of us.”

“And if I refuse?” Mu Donglin laughed icily and continued, “Lin Ya, the things you did, you wouldn’t have succeeded without me.”

Lin Ya disdainfully smiled and said, “Mu Donglin, you overestimate yourself.”

The man’s heart sank deeper as his normally expressionless eyes now became steely as a predator’s. It was as though he would rip the other person apart in the blink of an eye.

However, Lin Ya only broadened his smile as he said, “I chose you because you’re clean.”

Leaning over slightly, he lowered his voice and said, “Compared to you, Jiang Yeqing would’ve been better at such things. Alas, he’s gray.”

Gray, meaning the man hovered in-between.

“Secondly, my sister likes you.” Lin Ya spoke the stark reality, and it was harsh. He smiled and said gently, “I don’t doubt your capability. However, you’re not the only capable person around here.”

Mu Donglin’s hands placed on the tabletop immediately tightened into fists.

Lin Ya’s smile widened, and he spoke flatly, as though he had not noticed the other man’s reaction, “Don’t forget, the Mu Family has other sons, not just you alone.”

“He’s a more ruthless man than you. Otherwise, how could he have gotten where he is today, at such a young age?”

The survival of the fittest was the unchanging law of nature.

“Background-wise, he’s a retired Major General who has the backing of the Mo family. He has an outstanding military service record and is also the Second Young Master of the Mu Family.”

“How many has he beaten while in military service?” Lin Ya chuckled. “Do you really feel that he’s not as capable as you?”

Mu Donglin looked at the man with narrowed eyes.

Lin Ya’s smile faded ever so slightly as he sat there drumming his fingers on the desk casually. “You have two options now. First, go to jail as a rapist. Given my powers now, no matter how strong the Mu Family is, there’s no out for you.”
