The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 298

[Chapter 298: Long time no see Yang Zhiqing]

So the matter was settled, and the Minister of Rites gnashed his teeth at Lin Jian.

He had struggled for several years to get to his current position, but Lin Tian could be on equal footing with him without doing anything. How could he bear this? He just

exposed a governor, how could he have such a great ability?

Thinking that Lin Tian had just run to chat with Yang Sheng outside the palace gate, he must have some hidden background behind him.

Otherwise, how could he be appreciated by the emperor so quickly?

Even such a big event as pacifying the beast tide was sent to Lin Tian, and he was even given the tiger talisman of the Imperial Guard. What a great honor!

“I don’t believe I can’t bring you down!”

The Minister of Rites gnashed his teeth and said as he walked, but he didn’t dare to speak too loudly.

After all, there were colleagues around him, so he could only say these words privately behind his back.

Immediately, an official who was familiar with him came in and walked shoulder to shoulder with him, talking and laughing together.

The Minister of Rites could only put away his vicious look and turned around to chat with his colleagues.

After returning to his own mansion, he also lost his temper and attracted the attention of some people, but that was all for later.

He usually flattered Yang Sheng, but Yang Sheng still didn’t give him a straight face.

He also saw that Yang Sheng was upright and had a say in front of the emperor, so he was interested in making friends.

Unexpectedly, Yang Sheng was also a guy with a lot of black water in his belly, but he just didn’t like the gift he gave! I thought he

was so honest and incorruptible, I guess Lin Tian must have given a lot of silver in secret to let Lin Tian get his current position!

Speaking of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the Minister of Rites was even more upset, and his colleague kept talking to him about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

He couldn’t help it, and the Minister of Rites finally changed his face.

“What’s wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable today?”

The official asked, and saw that the Minister of Rites looked bad, and he was a little concerned.

“Maybe I was a little tired last night, and I’m not in a good mental state today. I’ll leave first.”

The Minister of Rites came to his senses belatedly, smiled at the man apologetically, and then left in a hurry without waiting for his answer.

“It’s really strange, there are a lot of strange things happening today!”

The official was also careless. He didn’t notice that the Minister of Rites was wrong at all. He just thought that he was really not feeling well.

So he just scratched his head and found someone else to go with him.

As for Lin Tian, he was not affected at all. He lived his life as usual.

It’s just that he went to Yang Sheng to ask for advice on homework more and more frequently, and the questions he asked became more and more profound.

Sometimes even Yang Sheng had to think for a long time before he could give Lin Tian an answer.

In the blink of an eye, it was the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Lin Tian went out to the Yang Mansion early in the morning as usual, but today was a little different.

As soon as he arrived in front of the gate, he saw the door open from the inside, and then Yang Zhiqing and her maid Xiaolan came out.

Lin Tian was a little emotional when he saw Yang Zhiqing. He originally thought that he would be able to meet Yang Zhiqing often when he came to Yang’s house to ask for advice.

Unexpectedly, it had been almost two months and he hadn’t even seen a hair of Yang Zhiqing!

Fortunately, he met her by chance today.

“Mr. Lin?”

Yang Zhiqing also recognized Lin Tian.

After she came back that day, she told Yang Sheng about the murder and wanted to ask Lin Tian for a reward. Unexpectedly, her father didn’t show any attitude at all.

Yang Zhiqing also felt strange, but she never dared to ask more about her father’s affairs, so she could only hold it in her heart.

So Yang Zhiqing actually felt a little guilty and grateful to Lin Tian.

“Long time no see, Miss Yang.”

Lin Tian also smiled at her and nodded politely.

If other people met Yang Zhiqing who took the initiative to greet them, they would have come up to her and started chatting, but Lin Tian was distant and polite.

This was enough to make Yang Zhiqing feel that Lin Tian was special.

“Mr. Lin, are you here to see my father?”

Yang Zhiqing looked at the wooden box in Lin Tian’s hand with some curiosity, and her expression changed slightly.

She thought that Lin Tian had brought a large amount of banknotes and wanted to ask her father for a way out.

Unexpectedly, Lin Tian was actually a person who was looking for shortcuts!

Suddenly, Yang Zhiqing’s attitude towards Lin Tian became a little cold again.

“I am indeed here to see Mr. Yang. I want to ask him some questions.”

Lin Tian saw the change in Yang Zhiqing’s expression at a glance, and he knew with a little thought that she must have misunderstood his intention.

So he took the initiative to open the box in his arms, revealing the stacks of books inside.

Seeing that there were indeed books inside, and the handwriting on them was very handsome and elegant, his favorability towards Lin Tian suddenly increased.

If Lin Tian knew about her psychological changes, he would probably shake his head helplessly and sigh:

This little girl is really rich in psychological activities!

However, Yang Zhiqing also knew that her father would not interact too much with other officials on weekdays, and with his father’s talent, he looked down on ordinary students.

And she had never heard of any deeper intersection between her father and Lin Tian.

So Yang Zhiqing still thought that Lin Tian should come to make connections, but he had a heart to study.

“If necessary, I can tell your father for you.”

Almost subconsciously, Yang Zhiqing thought that Lin Tian should be turned away, so she wanted to help.

But at this moment, the doorman inside saw that Yang Zhiqing had not left, so he leaned out to take a look.

Just then, he saw Lin Tian and Yang Zhiqing chatting, and felt puzzled.

“Mr. Lin, so you know our lady!”

The doorman greeted Lin Tian.

Because Lin Tian has an easy-going personality and is very good to them, the servants.

Therefore, everyone in the Lin family likes Lin Tian very much, and they would greet him on weekdays.

“I came a little early today, and I met Miss Yang again, so I chatted a little more.”

Lin Tian smiled and nodded to Yang Zhiqing.

“I’m afraid there’s no need to trouble Miss Yang. It’s just that Miss Yang is pretty and talented. Lin couldn’t help but cherish her talent, so I chatted a little more and went in first.”

After explaining a few words to Yang Zhiqing, Lin Tian praised her openly and secretly, and also rationalized the reason for their chat.

After that, without waiting for Yang Zhiqing to respond, Lin Tian bowed and turned around and walked in.
