Chapter 1119: Are You Young Master Hao?
"I wonder what kind of luck Lin Jiahao had to actually get involved with Young Master Hao..."
Thinking that he did endure some hardships from Hao Jian before finally becoming his subordinate, and Lin Jiahao only had that little bit of assets, usually not even a chance to touch Hao Jian's clothes, and now, because of his daughter, he's linked with Hao Jian?
Thinking of this, Lin Nantian couldn't help but sigh, indeed, in this world, it's better to have a daughter than to live well oneself.
After Hao Jian hung up the phone, Lin Nantian hurriedly prepared, first contacting Lin Jiahao to roughly explain the situation and asking him to come to the police station.
At the same time, he contacted some of his own men, and half an hour later, after Lin Jiahao arrived, they hurried towards the address given by Hao Jian in a police car.
"Director Lin, is my daughter really safe?!"
Once in the car, Lin Jiahao immediately asked Lin Nantian, his voice filled with anxiety.
Hearing Lin Jiahao's anxious tone, Lin Nantian smiled and said, "If Young Master Hao was correct, then the woman he saved should be your daughter."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiahao was stunned and asked, "Young Master Hao? Who is that?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Nantian's face was puzzled at first, then he understood, and with a smile, he explained to Lin Jiahao, "Mr. Lin, since your company's headquarters isn't in Hua City, it's normal that you don't know Young Master Hao..."
Actually, Lin Nantian had one more thing to say, even if Lin Jiahao's company headquarters moved here to Hua City, it would be useless, because Hao Jian's power isn't something Lin Jiahao's company could possibly comprehend.
However, since it seems Lin Jiahao's daughter is now involved with Hao Jian, Lin Nantian didn't put on any airs, he just explained Hao Jian's status.
"I can't say much about Young Master Hao's identity, this is all I can mention."
Lin Nantian smiled and said, "He's the guardian of Hua City and the most powerful person in Hua City. As long as you don't offend him, and even have some relation to him, I can assure you, your net worth could increase from two billion to twenty billion, even up to two hundred billion."
"You have to know, even figures with net worth exceeding ten billion need to depend on Young Master Hao's mood to meet him."
Listening to Lin Nantian's words, it was as if Lin Jiahao was reading a heavenly book with no words, equally filled with disbelief, that the man who saved his daughter is actually so powerful?
The police station was quite far from that remote abandoned building, Hao Jian and Lin Qingxue waited inside the building for nearly two hours before hearing the sound of police sirens outside.
"Young Master Hao!"
When Lin Nantian came upstairs with his men to the fifth floor and saw Hao Jian's figure, he immediately showed respect and said, "Young Master Hao, we're here!"
This...
Seeing this somewhat plump middle-aged policeman being so respectful to Hao Jian, Lin Qingxue's pretty face was also puzzled, but before she went to Hao Jian for clarification, she saw the person she most wanted to see right now.
"Dad!"
"Daughter! It's really you! Haha! Dad knew you would be okay!"
Originally following behind Lin Nantian, Lin Jiahao suddenly heard his daughter's voice, then turned his gaze and saw Lin Qingxue's figure, his face became excited, his body started trembling involuntarily, and he finally hugged Lin Qingxue tightly.
"Dear daughter, dear daughter, this time you suffered!"
Seeing that his daughter was truly safe, the heart Lin Jiahao had been holding also fell, then he kept observing Lin Qingxue's body, his face filled with urgency, worried that his daughter might be hurt.
With tears in his old eyes, Lin Jiahao's face showed joy, his heart was overjoyed. Previously, when the kidnappers called, hearing his daughter's voice, he was so anxious that he ran to multiple bank counters, forcibly withdrawing twenty million, which was his entire net worth.
"Dad, it was Hao Jian who saved me..."
After the father and daughter's emotions gradually stabilized, Lin Jiahao unconsciously found that within this dilapidated room, there were only the father-daughter pair left, a young man of merely twenty-four or twenty-five years old, and Lin Nantian.
"Uncle Lin, those people here have already gone to handle the situation, and as for those who kidnapped Lin Qingxue, I have dealt with them. You don't need to worry about them harming you anymore."
Seeing Lin Jiahao turn his head, Hao Jian smiled slightly; earlier, to avoid disturbing the father-daughter pair, Hao Jian had asked the people here to quietly go out and clean up, thus not interrupting them.
"You are Young Master Hao?"
Seeing the young man in front of him, Lin Jiahao's face was filled with surprise, earlier when Lin Nantian mentioned Hao Jian's identity, he never thought the Young Master Hao in Lin Nantian's words would be a young man.
Right now, it's just Lin Nantian and this young man here. Lin Nantian he knew, but the young man in front of him claimed to have saved Lin Qingxue. Lin Jiahao was visibly surprised.
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him is the Young Master Hao whom even the Director of the Hua City Police Department respects?!
Not only Lin Nantian; those living high up in Hua City all maintain due respect for this young man. That's something he learned from Lin Nantian.
As Hao Jian listened, he glanced at the embarrassed Lin Nantian and instantly understood the situation. He had no intention of blaming Lin Nantian; instead, he nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed, I am the Young Master Hao they speak of."
"But from now on, Uncle Lin, you don't need to call me Young Master Hao. I am of the same generation as Qingxue; you can just call me Hao Jian or Little Jian."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiahao, who initially thought Hao Jian would be arrogant, was taken aback. He looked at Hao Jian, who carried himself with gentlemanly demeanor, and immediately burst into laughter, saying, "Then, Uncle Lin, I shall respectfully comply!"
Standing aside, Lin Nantian listened to their conversation, his face full of envy. Indeed, having a daughter is wonderful!
"But..."
Lin Jiahao, who initially had a smiling face, now showed awkwardness. He had been pondering how to gift Hao Jian as thanks for saving his daughter. But upon learning Hao Jian's identity, he was unsure of what to do, as his gifts wouldn't catch Hao Jian's eye...
"But what?"
Hao Jian heard the difficulty in Lin Jiahao's tone and also smiled, saying, "Uncle Lin, feel free to share. If it can be resolved, I'll help you solve it."
"Though I myself have no real power, just saying a few words would ensure many friends show me, Hao Jian, some favor..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Nantian inwardly commented, if Hao Jian claims not to have power, then those people truly have none at all.
"Little Jian, you saved Qingxue; I don't even know how to repay you. How about you suggest something, so Uncle Lin can prepare accordingly..."
Hao Jian laughed and then glanced at the nervous Lin Qingxue with a helpless smile, saying, "Uncle Lin, saving Qingxue this time was just accidental..."
Then, Hao Jian explained how the conflict arose, and to make the story easier to understand, he turned Spice Ginger into his own brother.
"Of course, if Uncle Lin still feels uneasy, then let Qingxue treat me to a meal. After all, Qingxue was the one I saved, so it's her debt to repay."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiahao immediately looked at his daughter with a flicker in his eyes. When he saw the shy expression on his daughter's face, he sighed inwardly. Indeed, daughters cannot be kept at home!
He also thought, if Lin Qingxue were to refuse, regardless of Hao Jian's identity, he would adamantly push back against it. Even if it meant finding an alternative, he wouldn't force his daughter into something she didn't like.
But now, it seems his daughter has some interest in the man before her!
Considering that his seemingly obedient daughter was actually very proud towards men, he used to worry about how to get this daughter married off. Now, it seems he no longer has to worry about that.
Hao Jian's identity and character, from every perspective, make him the most ideal son-in-law. If his daughter wishes to pursue it, perhaps this affair could be fostered.
"Hey hey hey, daughter, just agree to Little Jian! Look at Little Jian, he's a nice guy, and you're not getting any younger; it's time to think about these things..."
Lin Jiahao whispered to his daughter, and as he spoke, Lin Qingxue's face became increasingly red. She eventually glared fiercely at her father.
Stop being disrespectful!
Hmph! Little Jian, Little Jian, anyone hearing might think you're calling your son!
Calling him more affectionately than you do your own daughter!
Lin Qingxue's face was burning red. She then sneakily looked at Hao Jian, gathered her courage, nodded, and agreed in a voice as soft as a mosquito's.
"Okay..."
Having received Lin Qingxue's agreement, Hao Jian chuckled lightly, though with a hint of helplessness. Lin Jiahao believed he spoke quietly enough, but with Hao Jian's hearing, he heard it all clearly.
However, Hao Jian had no intention of addressing such matters. As he often said, letting things take their natural course is best. Some things, whether accepted or not, are yours to accept. And no matter how you accept what's yours, it isn't.
Rather than letting such matters frustrate him, he thought it better to be more open-minded and enjoy himself.
