Third Master Du dispatched the household generals, then reached out to embrace Miss Lin, his face full of smug satisfaction.
Miss Lin hurriedly got up and handed a cup of hot tea to Third Master Du.
Third Master Du smiled and said, "Feeling comfortable now? Without Chen Family Village's thread tassels, yours can be sold."
Miss Lin lowered her head shyly: "If it weren't for Third Master taking care of me, I might really be schemed against by Xie Liangchen." Although she didn't manage to marry Su Huaiqing, she was glad to meet Du Yi, and Xie Liangchen, despite using a myriad of means, might not manage to marry into the Su family.
"We still shouldn't be careless," Miss Lin said, "Although some goods were lost, Xie Liangchen is full of tricks..." As Nanny Xu reminded her, if Third Master Du succeeded, she must advise him to follow up and strike while the iron is hot, lest Chen Family Village have a chance to breathe.
