The Dragon from Hell

Minghui followed them and refused to leave. First, she wanted to monitor Qin Feng and deliberately prevent him from being in the limelight at the exchange meeting; second, she was immediately interested when she heard that Lin Lin was from the Ling family.

Although she was born in the Ming family and was considered a royal relative, the Ming family's status in Longdu was lower than that of the Ling family.

And she herself was born to a concubine, so she was not a direct descendant.

If it weren't for her own hard work and ability to make money, and she entered the secretariat of the secret cabinet, I'm afraid her marriage would have been used as a bargaining chip by the family.

After all, her background has determined that she can't marry into the direct line of any big family. Most of the time, she will be used to exchange benefits for the family.

And the big families are not fools. Family marriages mostly require equal status. If not, there must be some interest connection.

As for the rich children in romance novels who abandon the so-called concept of equal status for true love, there are some, but very few.

Minghui relied on her work in the Secret Chamber and was still unmarried in her early thirties, with the goal of marrying up.

Because with her family background and status, she could only marry someone of equal status, that is, a child of a noble family with a less glorious family background like her, which would also be considered equal status.

Or, she could only marry a second wife to a family with a higher status.

She didn't want to.

Because either of these two options would only make her go from an ignoble family background to a not particularly glorious destination.

What she wanted was the feeling of being looked up to and having unlimited glory.

So the man she chose must be someone who could make her stand out in front of others and be envied by everyone.

As soon as Lin Lin appeared, her eyes lit up immediately.

If for nothing else, it was because of his family background in the Ling family, and he was young and handsome, so standing with her, they were considered a perfect match.

So when Lin Lin appeared, she took the initiative to extend her hand to Lin Lin: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Minghui, the fourth daughter of the Ming family in Longdu, and I am currently the deputy director of the secret office."

When she mentioned the identity of the deputy director of the secret office, she was afraid that Lin Lin would not take her identity as a member of the Ming family seriously, so she deliberately emphasized her tone.

Qin Feng saw her purpose at a glance, and did not say anything, just folded his arms and watched the fun from the side.

This deputy director Ming is happy to step on the low and praise the high to get the limelight. He must have taken a fancy to the Ling family behind Lin Lin, so he is so enthusiastic about Lin Lin.

I just don't know what her expression would be if she knew that the person in front of her was not the cousin of the Ling family, but the illegitimate son of the eldest wife of the Ling family.

He was very happy to see these two people meet.

After all, Lin Lin was also a dangerous person in his eyes.

Lin Lin did not expect that he wanted to take advantage of the exchange meeting to contact Qin Feng today, but Minghui suddenly appeared.

He had investigated before coming here. Minghui's mission this time was to be Qin Feng's secretary, but in fact, she was to monitor Qin Feng.

It stands to reason that such people would not be too high-profile in public, but Minghui directly stated that she was Qin Feng's spokesperson.

He frowned slightly and looked up at Qin Feng.

The latter smiled slightly: "Director Ming is right. If Mr. Lin has anything to say, he can say it in front of Director Ming. We are all family members, so don't worry about it."

Minghui was a little surprised when she heard this. She glanced at Qin Feng and was secretly proud: You just put on airs for yourself, but you still need my identity to flatter you!

Hearing Qin Feng's praise, Minghui immediately straightened her chest, and her whole body was filled with a sense of superiority.

"Mr. Ling, do you have something to do with Qin Feng?"

Lin Lin originally wanted to talk to Qin Feng alone about Chu Huaijiang, but Minghui intervened in the middle and directly disrupted his plan.

Other things are fine. Minghui comes from the Secret Pavilion. Now everyone in the circle knows that the "big cleanup" inside the Martial God Hall is actually related to the Secret Pavilion.

Minghui is here to monitor Qin Feng, so what Lin Lin said to Qin Feng now will naturally fall into the ears of the Secret Pavilion.

He looked at Qin Feng deeply, and his eyes indicated that the latter wanted to talk alone, but Qin Feng ignored him and just smiled at him, as if he didn't understand his hint.

Lin Lin had no choice but to say to Minghui: "Director Ming, I have some private matters to discuss with Qin Longzhu. Please give me a favor."

"Mr. Ling..."

Minghui was about to say something, but the beautiful woman following Lin Lin spoke first: "Director Ming, you may have misunderstood. This is Lin Lin, not Ling Lin, the cousin of our eldest wife."

This beautiful woman is from the second branch of the Ling family. She has a good relationship with Lin Lin, otherwise she would not take the initiative to follow Lin Lin to important occasions.

But when she finished speaking, the smile on Minghui's face obviously turned colder.

Although she had never heard of Lin Lin's name, she had seen the people from the second branch of the Ling family andAs soon as he came, he thought that Lin Lin should be the nephew of the second branch of the Ling family.

Although he was not from the first branch of the Ling family, now that Ling Yuhai is dead, the second son of the first branch is not presentable. If the Ling family wants to introduce a new heir, they can only find someone from the second and third branches.

And today, on such an important occasion, the Ling family asked Lin Lin to come, maybe to make him the next generation of heir.

Although she wanted to marry a direct descendant of a family, the Ling family had a special situation. It didn't matter if he was from the second or third branch, as long as he was a direct descendant.

Who knew that the man in front of him was just a cousin, a person from another family of the Ling family.

What a waste of expression!

Minghui couldn't even hold back her eyes and was not as enthusiastic about Lin Lin as before: "Oh, so you are the cousin of the Ling family. I'm sorry, Master Qin Long is busy with official duties and has no time to talk about personal matters with irrelevant people. If Mr. Lin has personal matters, please make an appointment with him. I don't have time to waste time with you here."

She said this bluntly, and even shook hands with Lin Lin briefly and then quickly withdrew her hand, without even using honorifics, and her disdain was evident in her words.

The beautiful woman frowned slightly, very dissatisfied: "Director Ming, what do you mean?"

"Our Ling family's old man also works in the Secret Pavilion, but I have never heard of a secretary in the Secret Pavilion being so busy."

"Besides, tonight's cocktail party is not a formal occasion. What qualifications do you have to let us go?"

Although the woman is from the second branch of the Ling family, she is just a woman, and Minghui doesn't take it seriously.

She showed her expressionless demeanor as the deputy director of the secretariat and said sternly: "Why, do we have to report to you for our secret office? Even if Elder Ling is here, I will say the same thing!"

Everyone knows that the old man of the Ling family is from the eldest house. Would he make trouble for a cousin who is not very close to him?

Qin Feng was happy to see this scene: I have to say that Minghui is still useful.
