Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

Chapter 164 I'm just here to see you off.

"Miss Lin, Chu Yu told us everything. I didn't know you were so capable. Well done!" Gao Yong gave her a thumbs up.

"It's nothing," Lin Xin said with a smile, waving her hand.

Fu Jing walked over, and Mo Ziyuan's expression changed. He took a step to the right front, blocking Lin Xin behind him, and asked in an unfriendly tone, "What are you going to do?"

Fu Jing gave a wry smile, spread his hands, and said, "I misunderstood Miss Lin before, and I just want to apologize to her. That's all!"

Mo Ziyuan paused for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Xin.

"It's alright, don't be nervous!" Lin Xin patted Mo Ziyuan's shoulder and stepped out from behind him to face Fu Jing.

“Miss Lin, I misunderstood you before, thinking that you would care more about Lin Nan than the young prince when things were dangerous. Now I know that I was being petty. I apologize to you here!” After saying that, Fu Jingduan gave Lin Xin a proper bow.

Lin Xin stared at him for a while, then nodded and said, "I know you're doing this for Tao Tao's own good, and since you don't understand me, it's not surprising that there's such a misunderstanding. I don't take it to heart, and you don't need to apologize to me."

Fu Jing straightened up somewhat awkwardly; he hadn't expected Lin Xin to show him no respect at all.

"Alright, brother, Miss Lin isn't petty, she won't take it to heart!" Gao Yong patted Fu Jing on the shoulder first and said to him.

“Yes! We’ve known Miss Lin for so many years, and she’s never been a stingy person!” Chu Yu echoed Gao Yong’s words.

Zhou Qi didn't say anything, just patted him on the shoulder and walked away.

Mo Ziyuan was even more straightforward. He took Lin Xin directly to the fire, picked up a roasted pheasant that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, tore off a chicken leg and handed it to her, "Try it. Meng Yixuan may not be a very good person, but his roasting skills are quite good."

Fu Jing smiled wryly at Meng Yixuan, the only one left in front of him, and asked, "Has she forgiven me or not?"

Meng Yixuan smiled and said, "What difference does it make whether we forgive her or not? Anyway, let's not expect her to treat us the way she treats them."

Fu Jing nodded. Now that things had come to this, he didn't know how to break the deadlock. Anyway, they were almost in the capital, so he could make up for it later if he had the chance.

The two of them walked over to the fire and overheard Mo Ziyuan's words. Meng Yixuan rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "You ate the chicken I roasted and then you have to say something sarcastic to me. If you're so capable, then don't eat it!"

Lin Xin smiled at his expression, which looked like he'd been stuffed with a head of garlic. She took a bite of the chicken leg and thought, "Mmm, it's savory, juicy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. His cooking skills are indeed quite good!"
Suddenly, Lin Xin stopped chewing and stared intently into the distance.

"What's wrong?" Mo Ziyuan asked.

“Someone’s coming, quite a few of them, all on horseback,” Lin Xin replied, narrowing her eyes.

"Why can't I hear anything?" Gao Yong listened intently, but found he couldn't hear anything at all.

“If Miss Lin says it exists, then it must exist!” After walking this route, Chu Yu’s admiration for Lin Xin had reached the point of complete awe, and he believed her words without a doubt.

"So they were just passing by?" Gao Yong mumbled, a chicken wing dangling from his mouth.

"I hope so!" Mo Ziyuan said, looking in the direction Lin Xin was pointing.

Although no one moved, their bodies were already on high alert. Soon, the sound of horses' hooves reached their ears, and everyone quickly stood up, longswords already in their hands.

"Xin'er, take Nan Nan and the other boy to the carriage. We'll take care of things here." Mo Ziyuan picked up Lin Nan and Lin Tao and put them in Lin Xin's arms.

"Auntie, are the bad guys here again?" Lin Tao asked, blinking his big eyes.

"It's not certain yet. You two should come with me to hide in the carriage for a bit. If it's not them, that's for the best. If it is, let's not cause them any trouble." Lin Xin carried the two of them towards the carriage.

Lin Nan's face turned pale, and she wrapped her arms tightly around Lin Xin's neck, making Lin Xin feel a little uncomfortable.

"Don't be afraid, I won't let anything happen to you," Lin Xin comforted the two children in her arms.

"Auntie, when we get back to the capital, can you teach me how to fight bad guys?" After getting into the carriage, Lin Tao tugged at Lin Xin's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Me?" Lin Xin was taken aback, then shook her head. "Auntie's kung fu is all self-taught and not suitable for you. If you want to learn, ask your father to find a suitable teacher for you!"

She dared not teach him anything carelessly. Her skills were honed by killing zombies in the apocalypse, and she couldn't possibly teach the little bun to chop off people's heads right away!
"Oh, okay then!" Lin Tao lowered his head in disappointment.

Perhaps it was the enclosed space of the carriage that made Lin Nan feel safe. Seeing Lin Tao's low spirits, she snuggled up to him and whispered, "My sister is naturally strong. She doesn't need any special moves to fight, so she can't teach you."

"Really?"

"Really!" Lin Nan nodded firmly, and Lin Tao's mood visibly improved.

Lin Xin: "..." was speechless.

While they were talking, the sound of horses' hooves approached them and stopped.

"Third Prince, you really are not dead!" Mo Ziyuan's voice rang out, and Lin Xin curiously lifted the carriage curtain a crack to look outside.

Then they saw a person wearing an apricot-yellow robe and a black cloak sitting on a large, snow-white horse, raising his chin and looking down at Mo Ziyuan and his group.

"I won't die so easily, but you guys, including the people in the carriage, are going to die!" The Third Prince's voice had a heavy metal quality, which Lin Xin found quite pleasant.

"You don't need to worry about our lives." Mo Ziyuan glanced at the two hundred or so men in black behind the Third Prince and knew that the chances of winning this time were so small as to be negligible.

"I don't care! I'm just here to see you off," the Third Prince said with an arrogant smile, "and to collect your corpses while I'm at it!"

"Ziyuan, stop wasting time talking to him, let's do it!" Gao Yong, who was impatient, shouted.

"Hahaha," the Third Prince laughed loudly, then stopped laughing after a while. He pointed his riding whip at Gao Yong, "This is the first time I've seen someone so eager to die. Since you've said so, then I won't be polite. After you're all dead, I'll send you all to my good brother, let him see how presumptuous he is to fight me. Not only did he lose his son, but he also dragged you all down with him. Alas! How pitiful!"

After saying that, he turned his horse around, stood by the roadside, and tilted his head to the people behind him, "They can't wait to die, why don't you hurry up and do it for them, instead of waiting for me, the prince, to urge you!"

"Yes!" the men in black shouted in unison, then urged their horses onward and charged toward Mo Ziyuan and his group.
