Chapter 985 Waiting in Ambush
Fang Miao's eyes lit up upon hearing it, recalling.
"Before we left, Lin Chunju specifically embroidered a peace charm for your dad. Later, the master said he needed an item related to Lin Chunju, so I gave him the peace charm."
Afterwards, Lin Jianping discovered the peace charm was missing and searched for it for a long time, occasionally bringing it up even now.
Little did he know that the item with his sister's blessing was used by his partner to borrow his sister's luck.
"Are there similar items now?"
Fang Miao shook her head, "At that time, we brought very few things from Beijing."
Lin Hao immediately called Yu Mengyu, expressing his thoughts.
"Miss Yu, I want to ask about the life exchange. Can it be done without seeing the person, just by finding something like that person's personal belongings?"
This way, they wouldn't need Lin Chunju's consent, making it much more convenient.
At worst, they could hire a private detective to keep an eye on Lin Chunju and would certainly find something she used.
Yu Mengyu said coldly, "Life exchange is different from borrowing luck, it requires the heart blood of the person whose life is being exchanged."
Lin Hao felt very frustrated, shook his head after hanging up the phone.
"It seems we must meet with Lin Chunju to get her consent."
Fang Miao's face showed a fierce expression, "Why must we have her consent?"
Lin Hao was astonished, "But wouldn't it be a crime if she doesn't consent?"
Actually, even with consent, it's still a crime.
China strictly prohibits the buying and selling of organs, and it is even less likely to allow someone to give up their life to save another.
Yet Lin Hao could still deceive himself before.
As long as Lin Chunju agrees, it's equivalent to organ donation, and he could feel more justified.
But if they followed his mother's plan, exchanging lives without Lin Chunju's consent would be outright murder.
Fang Miao gave her son a sidelong glance, "Then see for yourself. If she doesn't agree to exchange it, are you going to use your life instead?"
"I..." Lin Hao was rendered speechless.
"Son, I've told you countless times, a man must be ruthless to achieve great things. Being kind-hearted and soft won't lead to success. Look at those slick old hands in the company now; each one thinks you're easy to manipulate, that ever since Old Lin left, we are fish on the cutting board."
"Every single one of them is sharpening their knives, eager to scrape us clean, skin and all. Even if we manage to exchange lives this time, how much longer can your father survive? You'll still have to step up on your own in the future."
Lin Hao narrowed his eyes, and the fear in them gradually turned into a cold determination.
"You're right! Whether we exchange aunt's life or not, we have to do it; we have no other choice, and neither does she."
Fang Miao finally smiled, "That's my good son."
"But now, the most important thing is how we find Yue Qingqing."
Previously, Lin Hao had called Yue Qingqing but found that she seemed to have changed her number.
The original phone number was impossible to reach.
Fang Miao reminded him, "Isn't she still studying at Minghua University? You may outrun the monk, but not the temple; you can certainly catch her."
"Right!" Lin Hao realized with sudden clarity, "I'll go now."
Fang Miao nodded approvingly, "Go ahead. Sooner rather than later. Your father's condition is critical, the sooner we find her, the sooner we can be at ease."
In order to find Yue Qingqing, Lin Hao made ample preparations.
By finding out the times for the major classes of Yue Qingqing's department, he often waited downstairs.
But Yue Qingqing had long mastered the skills of dodging paparazzi, coupled with spiritual energy assistance, she could always blend into the crowd undetected and slip away.
Like many other waiting journalists, Lin Hao couldn't find her.
Finally, after three days of waiting.
During class break time, Lin Hao noticed a tall figure downstairs.
His handsome appearance made even Lin Hao, a fellow man, stop for a few extra glances.
Female students passing by couldn't stop staring, and a few pushed and shoved towards him, seemingly intending to strike up a conversation.
However, faced with the man's indifferent gaze, their intentions were extinguished, and they could only pretend to ignore it and walk past.
"Aze."
Accompanied by a gentle voice, a girl descended the staircase.
Jiang Jingze's icy expression suddenly melted, and he naturally reached out towards the girl.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman, an alluring scene as if it were a movie poster.
"Yue Qingqing!"
Lin Hao felt a surge of joy, as he finally found her.
