Cheng Hui seemed to sense something different in Lin Fan's words, so he pressed on, "Are you saying there's a traitor among me?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Boss Cheng, this has nothing to do with traitors or anything like that. I just know one thing for sure: the people around you are never absolutely trustworthy, just like your daughter."

"She has no intention of harming you, but that doesn't stop her from being manipulated by others, so what she says may not be true. By the same token, you probably think you would be willing to entrust your junior to those two bodyguards who were just beside you, but who can guarantee that those two bodyguards won't betray you for some random reason, by coincidence, or by misunderstanding?"

"So, when it comes to making important decisions, I still prefer to keep all the decision-making power in my own hands. It's foolish to hand over your fate to others. What do you think, Mr. Cheng?"

Seeing the faint smile on Lin Fan's face, Cheng Hui couldn't help but take a deep breath and give Lin Fan a long look.

I don't know if it's because my opinion of Lin Fan has changed or for some other reason, but I always feel that Lin Fan's words are so meaningful when he is in a different role!

If he had heard such words before, he would have just scoffed at them, but if what Lin Fan just said is true, then Lin Fan's words are the truth!

Even someone who would never betray you in their heart isn't necessarily entirely trustworthy. Perhaps it was a mistake to entrust my most important relationship to my daughter.

Because such things should be held in one's own hands to ensure nothing goes wrong, and that one's daughter won't betray them or be exploited. Today, he learned something new from Lin Fan.

"Furthermore, Mr. Cheng, have you ever considered that while you show concern for your daughter because of her romantic troubles, don't you usually pay attention to the people around her?"

"Your daughter probably doesn't have the opportunity to come into contact with strangers or outsiders, so you might as well think about who is planning and orchestrating everything behind the scenes. Is it more likely that the person is someone you know who your daughter can usually interact with, or a complete stranger?"

Lin Fan had already met Cheng Hui's daughter's lover. Of course, he didn't know the man's identity, but he knew that the man must be someone under Cheng Hui's command or someone he knew well.

The reason is as mentioned above. If it were a complete stranger or someone they didn't know well, and the two of them had interacted in their daily lives, how could Cheng Hui, as a father, not be able to tell?

"I understand!"

"Brother Lin, heroes emerge from among the young!"

"Your words have taught me a lot!"

Cheng Hui looked at Lin Fan and then asked in a deep voice, "So, based on what you've said, what should I do now? And how can I verify the truth of what you've said?"

"It's very simple. Mr. Cheng should still be able to contact your old client, right? It might just be a bit troublesome. You just need to find him and confirm whether your transaction is in two days or some other time, and the truth will be clear."

"Of course, to prevent your old friend and I from working together to frame you, we can't completely trust what I say or the information you ask. But fortunately, we already know about the little tricks of the person behind it all. He's going to make his move in two days, so we can totally turn the tables on him!"

"I can even go for a walk with you tomorrow, Mr. Cheng. You can take me to meet some of the people you're close to. If the one who's been deceiving your daughter is among them, we'll be able to completely control their actions. Then, no matter how big their conspiracy is, it will just be yours, Mr. Cheng!"

"Now Mr. Cheng should be relieved, right?"

Lin Fan's words were exactly what Cheng Hui wanted to hear.

He had been thinking that if even his own daughter couldn't be trusted, could Lin Fan's words be trusted at all? Even if he had verified with Boss Hao, what if Lin Fan was sent by the good boss to set a trap? So the possibility was extremely small, but not impossible.

Therefore, it would be best to turn the tables and trap them like turtles in a jar.

Fortunately, Lin Fan did not disappoint him. He actually found out who the despicable person next to his daughter was, which made things much easier!

Thinking of this, Cheng Hui looked at Lin Fan and extended an invitation: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Lin. Brother Lin, get some rest when you get back tonight. I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow and introduce you to my brothers!"

When he mentioned the word "brothers," a hint of fierceness appeared on Cheng Hui's face, but it quickly disappeared.

Lin Fan also made a guarantee immediately!

The meeting was then over. Lin Fan had successfully achieved his goal. Cheng Hui's curiosity had been piqued, and he was just waiting for Lin Fan to save his life so that the goods would be his for the taking!

Guo Cai was standing in the corridor outside the door, waiting anxiously for Lin Fan and Cheng Hui to come out.

The old man in the vest on the side seemed indifferent, and even had time to tease Guo Cai.

"Boss Guo, where did you find this hothead? He doesn't even respect Boss Cheng. I think he's in big trouble today!"

Guo Cai glared at the old man in the vest and said, "Alright, stop making sarcastic remarks!"

"It's also my fault. I shouldn't have brought him to see Cheng Hui. Young people are too impulsive!"

As the two were chatting, the door to the private room opened, and what they saw left them speechless.

The Lin Fan who was supposed to be badly beaten, possibly even missing an arm or a leg, did not appear.

Lin Fan and Cheng Hui walked out of the private room with their arms around each other and smiles on their faces. Anyone who didn't know them would think they were two very close brothers.

"What...what's going on?"

Guo Cai was completely bewildered by what he saw. After Lin Fan made those outrageous remarks to him, Cheng Hui, a ruthless man, not only stopped being angry but was now able to get along with him peacefully. What exactly did his brother Lin do?

He even suspected that the Lin brothers might have used some kind of sorcery on Cheng Hui.

Otherwise, how do you explain the strange relationship between the two of them now?

"Alright, Mr. Cheng, you don't need to see us off. Let's both go back and rest early so we'll have the energy to handle the rest of the business tomorrow, don't you think?"

"Haha, alright, alright, then I won't see you off, Brother Lin. Go back and get some rest. I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow. See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

As Guo Cai walked out of the restaurant, he was still somewhat dazed.

It wasn't until he got home that he couldn't hold back any longer and asked Lin Fan, "Brother Lin, what exactly happened? Did you and Cheng Hui know each other before?"
