I Am A Billionaire

C148 Deceit



C148 Deceit

"Old man, old man, don't be agitated." Lin Xiao saw that the white-bearded old man was already old and was still baring his fangs and brandishing his claws. He was worried that the old man would trip him, so he stretched out his hand to stop him.    

    

The white-bearded old man had been a little impatient just now, but he calmed down when Lin Xiao called out to him.    

    

"Oh, you're still here." The white-bearded old man shot a glance at Lin Xiao, coughed, and winked at Lin Xiao.    

    

Lin Xiao frowned. He did not understand what the old man meant.    

    

"Tsk." The white-bearded old man looked at him in disappointment. He pulled Lin Xiao to the front of the grandfather, grandson, and grandson. He said arrogantly, "Grandson, show this damn old man your techniques. Let's see how he won't accept it."    

    

Lin Xiao was forced to look at the old man in front of him. He smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.    

    

"It really is your grandson. I feel like he looks like you at first glance. He looks so weak. It's funny." The old man curled his lips. He didn't even look at Lin Xiao. It could be seen that he was disdainful.    

    

"Bullshit!" The old man with the white beard bared his teeth and roared at the old man. It seemed that he really regarded Lin Xiao as his grandson.    

    

Lin Xiao thought that he could not take the hairpin for free. He had to return some things to the old man no matter what. Since the old man needed his help now, pretending to be his grandson was not a big deal.    

    

Lin Xiao paused for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the old man. The way he looked at the old man had changed.    

    

"Who allowed you to say that about my grandfather? Is he tired of living? Don't you know how to protect your own life at such an old age? "I really don't know how you managed to survive." Lin Xiao sneered at the old man. His mouth was poisonous, and he had no worries.    

    

After all, he was not a real grandson. He was not worried that the old man would come to him.    

    

After listening to Lin Xiao's words, The old man wasn't the only one who was stunned. Even the white-bearded old man widened his eyes and looked at Lin Xiao in disbelief.    

    

Lin Xiao didn't think much of it. He thought he was right.    

    

"No! No manners! How did your parents teach you? Ah! Xiao! ... "The old man came back to his senses and held his anger in his chest. Halfway through his words, he was stopped by the white-bearded old man.    

    

"Shut up! If you have nothing else to do, hurry up and get out of my shop. Don't disturb my business in my shop!" The white-bearded old man looked very nervous. Lin Xiao didn't think too much about it. He thought the old man finally couldn't take it anymore and started to lose his temper.    

    

The old man did not want to be outdone. He replied a few words, which provoked the white-bearded old man to scold him again.    

    

The old man glanced at the hairpin beside him.    

    

"Yo! Isn't this the precious hairpin that you, this old man, keep? What's wrong? Are you willing to take it out?" The old man raised his eyebrows and reached out to take it. However, the white-bearded old man put his hands together and pushed the old man back a few steps.    

    

The old man did not seem surprised at all. After being pushed away by the white-bearded old man, he did not forget to tidy up his appearance and appearance. He raised his head and asked, "What are you doing with this unlucky hairpin? Do you still want to cause another great disturbance? Do you think it's not enough this time?"    

    

Lin Xiao did not quite understand what Lin Xiao was saying.    

    

"What do you mean by unlucky hairpins?    

    

"Why do you care about me? I will put my own things wherever I like. " You don't have to worry about it. " The white-bearded old man replied fiercely. However, he kept the hairpin honestly. He didn't even let the old man see it.    

    

"I'm willing to take care of it? If it wasn't for your lousy hairpin that caused trouble back then, my accomplishments would have been at least twice as great now! " It's all your fault! " The old man and the white-bearded old man had an unforgettable past. When they talked about this, their faces were filled with anger and they were unable to let go of it for a long time.    

    

"How long has it been? I'll say it again. I had nothing to do with your project being intercepted back then. Even if it had anything to do with the hairpin, That's why you took the hairpin and threw it back at me when something went wrong. You really could have done it. " The white-bearded old man laughed coldly and pointed at the old man's nose as he cursed. Both of them had their own reasons and neither of them was willing to give in.    

    

Lin Xiao was puzzled by the question of the hairpin. However, the old man did not leave. He was in the way here. Lin Xiao turned his head helplessly and said to his two grandsons, "Take your grandfather and leave quickly. Whose territory are you running amok in?"    

    

The two grandsons of the old man were not good people. They felt embarrassed hearing what Lin Xiao said. They forced themselves to talk to Lin Xiao and refused to let go no matter what.    

    

"You... What are you again?! Who are you talking to?! My grandfather hasn't said anything about me yet! "What right do you have to shout at us!" The two grandsons were spoiled by the old man. They felt that Lin Xiao's impatient tone had offended them. No one could stop him with his temper.    

    

Lin Xiao couldn't take it anymore. Lin Xiao wanted to punch them in the face when he heard their conversation, especially when they were big men.    

    

He didn't know what to say.    

    

It turned out that he had thought so. He had indeed done so.    

    

The two men who were still chattering felt an impact on their faces. Then, they felt a pain in their cheeks and their teeth seemed to have been dislocated.    

    

The two elders who had been arguing with each other stopped as well. They turned around and looked at Lin Xiao and his two grandsons who were in a sorry state. The old man immediately threw a fire at them.    

    

After the chaos, Lin Xiao and the white-bearded old man worked together to chase the three of them out of the antique shop. They closed the door and saw the three of them standing at the door and cursing. Lin Xiao smiled and made a face for them. He was very childish.    

    

They could vaguely hear the old man shouting outside, "Wait for me!    

    

Lin Xiao closed the last curtain without even lifting his eyes. He turned to look at the white-bearded old man with a questioning look in his eyes.    

    

The white-bearded old man originally wanted to complain to Lin Xiao about the old man outside, but when he saw Lin Xiao's expression, he suddenly stopped.    

    

"What's wrong?" The white-bearded old man asked with a guilty conscience. His white beard trembled slightly as he panted, and his eyes flashed as he avoided looking at Lin Xiao.    

    

"What's going on?" Lin Xiao's face darkened. He thought the old man was a kind elder, and that was why he had been in contact with him. But from the looks of it, there might be some hidden reason behind it.    

    

"That... Lin Xiao..." The white-bearded old man scratched his head and said with some difficulty.    

    

Lin Xiao raised his hand to stop him. He stared into his turbid eyes and asked sharply, "How did you know my name?"    

    

The white-bearded old man was stunned for a moment. He realized that he had let his mouth slip. He patted his own face with some regret. He felt a little embarrassed.    

    

"Speak clearly." Lin Xiao's heart was cold. It did not feel good to be deceived.    

    

After a mental struggle, the white-bearded old man finally sighed. He lowered his head and said, "My surname is Xiao."    

    

Lin Xiao frowned. He did not understand what he meant.    

    

"And then, what does your surname have to do with me?" Lin Xiao didn't understand and asked with a straight face.    

    

Old Man Xiao obviously did not expect Lin Xiao to have such an answer. He raised his head in surprise and pointed at himself and said again, "My surname is Xiao."    

    

Lin Xiao found it even more strange. It was fine to say it once, but why did he have to repeat it twice? "I know. Didn't you just say it? What's the point?"    

    

Old Man Xiao seemed to have finally accepted the fact that Lin Xiao had no reaction to the surname Xiao. He muttered to himself and actually curled his lips.    

    

"You actually don't know." Old Man Xiao said in confusion.    

    

"Let me ask you, did it have anything to do with the hairpin that someone went to install an invisible camera in my house yesterday?" Lin Xiao stared at Old Man Xiao as if he was interrogating him.    

    

Old Man Xiao was immersed in his own happiness. When he heard Lin Xiao's question, he was also stunned.    

    

His brain was racing. After a while, Old Man Xiao slowly spat out a sentence. "So fast?"    

    

Lin Xiao frowned. Ever since the old man left, the old man had become more and more strange. His words sounded like he was talking to himself. No one else could understand him.    

    

"Take this hairpin." After thinking for a while, Old Man Xiao took out the hairpin and put it into Lin Xiao's hand. When he stopped, he did not forget to hold Lin Xiao's hand tightly, telling him not to let go.    

    

Lin Xiao had not figured out the origin of the hairpin yet, so he did not dare to take it rashly. His hand released a hole, and the hairpin smashed into the ground in a straight line.    

    

"Hey, what are you doing, kid?" Old Man Xiao quickly picked up the hairpin and patted the dust off the hairpin with some heartache. He complained to Lin Xiao.    

    

Lin Xiao looked at him expressionlessly. "You were the one who put it in my hand."    

    

Old Man Xiao rolled his eyes at him. He muttered, "How many people want it but don't want it? They can't avoid you. They don't have eyes."    

    

Lin Xiao did not want to talk to him anymore. He turned around and was about to leave.    

    

He did not expect Old Man Xiao to be like a dog's skin plaster. Seeing that Lin Xiao was about to leave, Old Man Xiao immediately stuck to him and gave him the hairpin.    

    

"Don't you understand that I don't want it?!" Lin Xiao was a little angry, and his voice rose uncontrollably. After shouting, he looked at Old Man Xiao's helpless eyes and sighed helplessly. He picked up the hairpin and touched it again and again.    

    

"What do you mean? Why did you give me this hairpin? What do you need me to do? Can you explain it clearly?" Lin Xiao was really convinced by him. He had no energy to confront him at all. He could only take a step back and see what he was going to do.    

    

Old Man Xiao had a troubled look on his face. He didn't say why. He just wanted him to hold this strange hairpin.    

    

Lin Xiao stuffed it into his pocket. He said it was okay, but he couldn't hold it.    

    

Old Man Xiao seemed to have seen through Lin Xiao's thoughts. He did not forget to remind Lin Xiao that he could not throw this thing away. If he threw it, it would be a big problem.    

    

Lin Xiao replied impatiently. He took the thing and went out.    

    

When he went out, he was blown by the wind. Lin Xiao trembled a little. He turned around and saw Old Man Xiao looking at him from the window.    

    

Lin Xiao did not know why, but he could actually see that Old Man Xiao had a trace of desolation on his body. He did not know what was going on.    

    

He rubbed his eyes again and saw that Old Man Xiao's figure was nowhere to be seen on the window. Lin Xiao shrugged his shoulders and turned around to leave. The hairpin was in his pocket and was lying peacefully.    

    

When he returned home, he thought about what had happened today. No matter how Lin Xiao thought about it, he felt it was strange.    

    

What was going on?    

    

Feeling it was strange, Lin Xiao sent a message to Bai Shuang.
