Chapter 228: He doesn't want you to dig deeper
What came out of Mr. Lin's mouth was so shocking that even though I was prepared for it, I was still taken aback.
It stands to reason that no one believed that my father was wrongfully imprisoned, and perhaps in addition to Mr. Lin, there were more people who wanted to file a lawsuit on his behalf.
Obviously, my father can clear his name, and he doesn't have to die in prison in the end, but for some reason, he turned this opportunity away in vain, preferring to bear all the pain himself.
Without thinking too much about it, I know there must be a reason for this. My father could not have spared his life like this, let alone when he had two children who were not yet adults, how could he be so ruthless.
But he did just that, and in order to keep his own secret, he abandoned his family and two children, even if it was the company he had spent his life running all his life, and I don't know why.
The more I thought about these things, I only felt a splitting headache, and I desperately held my head, but I only felt that the pain became more and more intense, forcing me to raise my head and look at Mr. Lin.
"Mr. Lin, tell me if there is any secret in this, my father can't do this for no reason, there is absolutely no reason for this, right?"
Mr. Lin nodded without hesitation, but then he sighed at me with a look of regret.
"It is absolutely impossible for your father to be imprisoned for embezzlement of public funds, after all, at that time, the Red Gold Foundation was temporarily at a low ebb, and the funds were somewhat unable to turn over."
"Your father didn't embezzle at the height of the day, so why did he have to do this when the Red Gold Foundation was having a hard time?"
While analyzing, he couldn't help but point with his fingers, "But from this matter." All those who have some ability can see that there must be something hidden in this. ”
"But there's a secret, after all, it's just our guess, and if your father doesn't say anything, then it's going to be a mystery forever."
"Our inquiries were of no use, and your father didn't tell us directly, and when it came to the subject, he was always silent, so gradually no one asked him anymore, and it gradually became unanswered."
Mr. Lin's words once again made me fall into a state of loss, I looked at him painfully, but I couldn't say a word of accusation, if everything was as Mr. Lin said, my father might have thought about the final result.
He thought that after he entered the prison, it was very likely that he would die tragically because of his physical inability to stand it, but even so, he never thought of escaping this fate that should not have belonged to him.
All of this was just to keep a damn secret, and I didn't even know what it was worth it, so I asked my father to trade his life for it.
Thinking about it, tears couldn't help but burst out of my eyes, and I hurriedly covered my face with my hands, not wanting to be too presumptuous in front of Qin Han and Mr. Lin.
Mr. Lin probably thought that I might have such emotions, so he didn't feel very disgusted, just sighed helplessly and slowly comforted me.
"It's been so many years since this happened, if you hadn't asked me suddenly today, I wouldn't want to think about it, why do you have to be so obsessed?"
Mr. Lin's words touched a certain nerve of mine, I raised my head, even if I was in tears, I stared at him tightly, "Because I and Mr. Lin are destined to be different." ”
"For you, Mr. Lin, my father may just be one of your many friends, he won't let you help him, you have no choice, and in the end you have to put this matter away."
"But my father is different to me, I am the only father in my life. But he didn't grow up with me, and died in prison. ”
"I promised my brother that I would find out the truth about why my father died in prison. In that case, no matter what method is exhausted, I must also know why! ”
I think there is probably only so much information I can get from Mr. Lin, and the things he can tell me are very limited, because he has already said it very clearly, and he doesn't know anything else.
But even so, I can't let go of every hope, so I still want to ask Mr. Lin if he has any other news I want to know.
But before I could ask this question, Mr. Lin looked at me, he hesitated, and finally opened his mouth thoughtfully, "But have you ever thought about it, maybe your father ...... Don't want you to explore this truth at all? ”
Although Mr. Lin's words are not the same as what Qin Han said, they both express the same meaning.
My father may have wanted to hide this from anyone in the first place, and he would rather bear this infamy himself than let someone else vindicate him.
In this case, does this mean that Mr. Lin knows something in addition to this, in fact, he understands why his father didn't let him file a lawsuit, but he didn't tell me.
Thinking about these things in my heart, there was no doubt about it, I immediately stood up, leaned forward, and looked at Mr. Lin with some nervousness and excitement, "Mr. Lin, can you tell me the truth, do you really know something?" ”
Mr. Lin shook his head helplessly about my question, obviously if I asked a few more words, he would be annoyed by my chatter.
"I should have told you all of it, without reservation. Even if I didn't intend to open my mouth at first, it wouldn't make sense for you to continue asking, because my answer will always be the same. ”
"In that case, then Mr. Lin, why do you think that my father doesn't want me to investigate this matter at all?"
"Because I'm a father too."
"Since he didn't let me file a lawsuit in the first place, it means that he has been prepared for a long time, and what he wants is for you and your brother to grow up safe and sound, not to avenge him."
"Even if it's like what Mr. Lin said, my father really thinks like this......" I curled the corners of my mouth and chuckled, but I couldn't help but shake my head, "I'm not trying to avenge him, I just want to know the truth." ”
"I'm a persistent person, so I can't let my father's death be unclear, I will find the truth, no matter how long it takes......"
I think it's probably over here. Mr. Lin has already given me most of the news, and as he said, I can't get anything if I press it any further.
So I turned my head to look at Qin Han beside me, he also understood what I was probably trying to do, and stood up with me, and I bowed slightly to Mr. Lin in front of me.
For example, before I start asking him questions about my father, I start with a bow and everything ends with a bow, and after that, I don't continue to ask him anything about my father.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, I have got the news I want to know, and I will not trouble you again from now on, and I will not make you feel uncomfortable again."
After finishing speaking, Qin Han and I turned around and walked towards the door.
Mr. Lin just sat on the sofa and watched us without saying a word, he didn't want to stop me, and it seemed that he really didn't want to talk to me anymore.
After coming out of Mr. Lin's office, until I walked into the elevator, my whole person was like a puddle of water, and suddenly softened, and I could only barely stand by relying on Qin Han beside me.
I tried several times to get myself up straight and not lie on Qin Han's body, but in the end I failed.
Until the end, even Qin Han couldn't stand it anymore, and took the initiative to reach out and wrap his hand around my shoulder, "Since you can't stand for the time being, don't force yourself, it's not a big deal, I'll just hold you." ”
"I'm really sorry Qin Han, I didn't expect that after I came out of the office, I would become like this......"
"What you said is right, sometimes the truth is often more cruel, when I face the truth, maybe it will hit me harder than no clue......"
Listening to my muttering, Qin Han didn't lower his head to comfort me, he just looked ahead and watched the elevator descend one by one.
And I lowered my head and stared at my toes. The floor inside the elevator was so clean that I could even show a human figure, and I could see my pale face, how frightened I was because of what had just happened.
"Since you have chosen to face the truth at the beginning, now even if the truth is too cruel, you must face it without fear."
Just when I kept my head down for a long time, not knowing what to say, Qin Han suddenly opened his mouth, his voice was flat and indifferent, obviously he didn't have a caring attitude, but I knew that he was also very concerned about my current situation.
A chuckle tugged at the corner of my mouth, and if I could, I would certainly like to be brave enough to face all this, but the amount of information is so great that who would have thought that my father would do so voluntarily.
But I don't want to tell Qin Han that I'm about to be unbearable, because I will meet more people in the future, and I will learn more things.
Obviously, I have already made a promise to Chen Tang, so I can't be scared like this because of this incident.
What's more, I obviously know that there is a secret in all this, so I will investigate it, find out this hidden secret, and know why my father did everything back then, and it will come to light.
"Don't worry, since I have chosen this path, of course I will continue to go. No matter how brutal the truth we know next, it won't get out of hand like it is today. ”
I opened my mouth to comfort Qin Han, but it was more like comforting myself and cheering myself up.
The elevator descended one by one, until the door was finally opened, Qin Han and I walked out of it, and when we saw the bright sunshine outside, my mood seemed to be better.
Pale golden sunlight spilled into the company through the glass, reflecting patches of snow-white light on the floor, and they were projected on all corners of the company, making it appear bright and bright, and nothing was hidden in the darkness.
When I wanted to stop slowly and stay in such a warm and sunny environment for a while, someone reached out and patted me on the shoulder.
I turned my head suspiciously, only to see a gentle smile come into view, "I've been waiting for you here for a long time, why did you come down?" ”
