Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!
Chapter 169 His entanglement with Lin Qiming

Chapter 169: 169 His entanglement with Lin Qiming

"You’ve posted so many videos, I’ve forgotten some as soon as I scroll past them," Yueqing began to speak with growing confidence. "Besides, every time I see those videos, I want to send them to you. Doesn’t that just show how in sync we are as best friends?"

Lin Qiming gave a thumbs up: "You’ve really got a knack for this PUA stuff!"

"So, should I not send them anymore?"

"No way! You have to send them!" Lin Qiming huffed, looking like a little dog that had just been kicked, baring his teeth and grimacing, "My best friend has to be on the same page with me."

"Alright, alright." Yueqing placated him, then handed her son the phone, "Baby, is there anything you want to say to your godmother?"

Yan Wang could see right through it—he knew his mother was trying to change the subject. So he said indifferently, "Godmother, take care of your health."

"Oh~ my sweet little Wangwang, you’re even sweeter than freshly squeezed sugarcane juice," Lin Qiming held his heart, "Once godmother is done with this busy week, I’ll come to City C and take you out for fun!"

"Okay, godmother."

Smitten by Wangwang’s sweetness, Lin Qiming finally remembered the reason for his call today: "Yue Bao, Yue Bao, I’ve heard from grandpa that you’re going to Old Kang’s auction tonight?"

Aside from addressing Old Master Yan as "grandpa" together with Yueqing, he referred to all other older individuals uniformly as "old man."

"Yeah," Yueqing nodded, "I’m going to see if there are any good finds, maybe bid on a few things for fun."

Lin Qiming said, "Yue Bao, aren’t you looking to buy a building? I’ve asked Old Kang about it, and he said there are five buildings for sale from the East Suburb area at the auction tonight."

"East Suburb?"

"Yes. Originally, those were Boss Cai’s projects, his family is in real estate. They poured a huge sum of money into this East Suburb project a couple of years ago, but then they ran out of funds, and now the buildings are almost turning into unfinished structures."

Unfinished structures? Yueqing frowned: "Why would I buy an unfinished building?"

"Well, you obviously wouldn’t buy just any unfinished building, but these were built by Old Cai," Lin Qiming said, sounding a bit rueful, "He’s known for his integrity in the industry. The design and the materials used on-site are all top-notch! The buildings his family has developed before, not one has had any quality issue even after ten years! This season’s East Suburb buildings are the culmination of his life’s work... It’s just unfortunate that he ran into trouble and was squeezed by several big capitals, causing the funds to dry up."

"Capital squeeze?" Yueqing understood, "So, they banded together to cut off Old Cai’s funding. Without new investment, he’s bound to go bankrupt, and his buildings would be auctioned off. And if he gives up on the project and tries to liquidate it, they would surely drive the price way down?"

"You’re so smart, Yue Bao. I barely explained and you got it!" Lin Qiming praised, "But Old Cai has some tricks up his sleeve. He managed to get in touch with Old Kang to sell these buildings. The starting bid is said to be five billion, and I was thinking, an average family wouldn’t be able to finish the project; even if those capitals took over, they’d skimp on construction later on... If you’re thinking of buying a building, it’s better to go for this one instead of those with high risks!"

He analyzed, "Old Cai has laid a solid foundation, you buy it, and you can not only provide Old Cai with the funds he needs, but you can also continue to collaborate with him, turning the East Suburb project into a future base. Even if you don’t buy it, at least bump up the price to mess with those capitals! We can’t let them get their hands on it so easily!"

Yueqing said, "Alright, send me the details of the property."

"OKK~" Lin Qiming said, "By the way, if you really intend to bid on the building, remember to bring a lawyer. It’s better to clarify the issues with the agreement and contract in person."

Yueqing nodded, "Sure, Lawyer Qian is also here, I’ll take him with me tonight."

"Wait a second!" Lin Qiming suddenly widened his eyes, "Lawyer Qian? It’s not Qian Yezhou, is it?"

Qian Yezhou in the room heard this part, his eyebrows knitting together more and more.

Indeed, it was him...

"Damn!" Lin Qiming finally remembered what he’d forgotten last time he was here!

He had seen online that Qian Yezhou had made a statement for Yueqing and specifically came to City C to see them both.

The result?

The Lamborghini was so enchanting to the eyes!

He drove back happily, completely forgetting about Qian Yezhou!

Feeling extremely guilty, he cleared his throat lightly, "Uh, Yue Bao, he has some misunderstandings about me... He’s with you now... Please take good care of him for me, and I’ll explain in person the next time I come over."

Only then did Yan Yueqing remember—Qian Yezhou had mentioned it himself—that he had offended Lin Qiming and almost couldn’t make his way in the legal industry.

Just about to answer, a clear and firm voice rejected the offer, "No need for explanations."

Yan Yueqing looked up just in time to see Qian Yezhou walking towards her with a stern face: "I apologize, Miss Yan, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, it’s just that Lin Qiming’s voice was a bit too loud."

Lin Qiming heard that familiar and yearning voice.

Damn it!

Still so charming.

A moment later, he gathered his thoughts, "Yue Bao, hand him the phone."

Yan Yueqing sensed there was a juicy situation and politely offered the phone: "Lawyer Qian, Qiming wants to have a word with you. There was some misunderstanding before, maybe—"

"There was no misunderstanding," Qian Yezhou refused coldly, but seeing the arm holding the phone frozen in mid-air, he still took it, "Young Master Lin, please stop harassing my former clients. I have already collected quite a bit of evidence. This is the first warning I’m giving you. If Young Master Lin insists on continuing, then our next meeting will be in court."

Lin Qiming suddenly laughed, "How can you be sure it’s people sent by me? Am I the only young master left in the Lin Family?"

Qian Yezhou replied, filled with anger, "I’m not interested in Young Master Lin’s family affairs! Originally, I merely declined the Lin Family’s invitation, and you resorted to such petty measures to torment me, which frankly is despicable! You treat me as a plaything and wish to control me, but Young Master Lin, even a rabbit will bite when cornered!"

The words were full of gunpowder.

They were all a candid expression of Qian Yezhou’s feelings.

Yan Yueqing did not expect such a juicy revelation: "Lawyer Qian, you might really have misunderstood something, Qiming, he—"

"Miss Yan, I’m very sorry, I didn’t know you were so close to Young Master Lin." Lawyer Qian’s eyelashes drooped, and a hint of turbulence flickered in his eyes, "I will devote myself fully to this defamation case, but after that, there’s no need to discuss any further collaboration."

Was she also being hated by association?

Actually, it wasn’t strange for Qian Yezhou to jump to conclusions; initially, he just didn’t want to join the Lin Family’s legal team and ended up being cornered by Lin Qiming to the extent that he couldn’t even stay in the capital!

Escaping to a small city to start his own law firm, he was still relentlessly pursued by the Lin Family, nearly forcing him out of the industry.

When Yan Yueqing extended a helping hand, Qian Yezhou was fairly happy, thinking he had finally made a breakthrough.

But to his surprise, the two of them knew each other all along!

And possibly, everything had been arranged by Lin Qiming...

However, upon hearing this, Yan Yueqing didn’t get angry but instead laughed, "Lawyer Qian, if you want to terminate our collaboration because of this incident, I must disagree."
