Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 591 Summoned by the Supreme Leader_1

In the living room, four members of the Lin family—grandfather, son, and two grandsons—wore solemn expressions as they discussed something important. Hearing of Shangguan You’s arrival, Elder Lin was so stirred that he immediately stood up.

"You just woke up! Why didn’t you rest properly at home instead of running over here? If another accident happens, what are we supposed to do?"

"Grandpa, Uncle, Wenjie, Wenhao," Shangguan You greeted them with a faint smile. Seeing Lin Wenbo, she quickly went to his side, supporting him as she led him to the sofa to sit down.

"Grandpa, your health isn’t good; you should be resting properly," Shangguan You said, a hint of displeasure in her voice. Although her grandfather’s condition had improved thanks to her treatments, his age was a factor. He was several years older than Shangguan Zhi. His health had originally not been properly managed, and then her recent troubles had further taken a toll on him. She didn’t want to see any harm come to the Lin family.

Hearing Shangguan You’s somewhat reproachful tone, Lin Wenjie couldn’t help but cough lightly, giving her a pointed look. Grandpa hasn’t even said anything to you, and you’re already starting to lecture him? Aren’t you just going to make him angrier?

"Lin Wenjie, if you’re unwell, go to the hospital! Stop coughing around here and ruining the atmosphere!" Elder Lin snapped, directing his considerable ire at Lin Wenjie.

"Ahem, Grandpa, I’m fine, really," Lin Wenjie said with a chuckle, again shooting Shangguan You a look, warning her to be careful. Grandpa is in a foul mood today. If he sees you being disobedient, he’ll be absolutely furious.

"Grandpa, Wenjie is always like this. Don’t mind him," Lin Wenhao chimed in, glancing at his younger brother.

"Dad, let’s ignore this kid. It’s a rare occasion for Youyou to visit. No matter what, she must stay for a meal before leaving today," Lin Qingyu interjected opportunely.

"Uncle, since you said so, I want to eat my favorites," Shangguan You said with a nod and a smile.

"Alright, alright. I’ll have the staff prepare them. We’ll make all your favorite dishes, you little rascal," Lin Qingyu chuckled, personally giving instructions to the household staff.

With Shangguan You’s arrival, the atmosphere in the living room gradually relaxed. Shangguan You took out four pendants and gave one to each of the four men. "Keep these with you," she urged. "They’re made from Spirit Gathering Stones from Hidden World Village. They’re good for your health and will also offer some protection against the current crisis in Beijing."

Otherwise, if a family member was suddenly replaced and she didn’t realize it, it would be too late. She had actually planned to give these to the Lin family much earlier, but her sudden coma had repeatedly delayed things.

Looking at her grandfather, at his graying hair, Shangguan You’s eyes reddened. The thought of Lin Mengjie, still unconscious in the dimension, weighed heavily on her heart.

"Uncle, it’s been so long since I’ve gone to the night market. I want Wenjie to take me for a stroll through Beijing’s night markets tonight," Shangguan You said playfully, all the while quietly observing her family’s expressions.

Her words shattered the cheerful atmosphere. Lin Qingyu’s expression instantly darkened, and Lin Wenhao’s face also turned grim, though he quickly composed himself.

Seeing their reactions, Shangguan You nodded inwardly. It seems they’re aware of what’s happening in Beijing.

"Youyou, you haven’t fully recovered yet, and it’s getting colder. You shouldn’t go out at night. Rest well at home. After a while, I’ll have these two boys take you out," Lin Wenbo quickly said.

"Yeah, Youyou, your health isn’t fully recovered yet, and it’s been cold lately. Let’s wait a while before you go," Lin Wenhao readily chimed in. "Going to the night market is perfectly normal, but Beijing has been unsettled recently. With this strange situation, it’s better to wait until it passes."

Shangguan Qing frowned but said nothing. He was naturally aware of the events in Beijing. That was why the entire Shangguan family had insisted he accompany Shangguan You, even arranging for him to take leave from work. This was one of the facets of the current situation in Beijing.

"Youyou, it’s not that I don’t want to accompany you, but your health won’t allow it. Once you’re better, Wenjie will definitely join you, alright?" Lin Wenjie sighed with relief. With the family objecting, he naturally felt relieved too. Otherwise, if something happened, it would be very difficult to explain. Although I consider myself quite skilled, these troublemakers don’t care who anyone is. And we’ve all heard about last night’s bloody incident.

Every move in Beijing was naturally within the Lin family’s sight. Before Shangguan You’s arrival, they had been discussing how to deal with these violent individuals. But it was a difficult problem. People who seemed perfectly normal during the day could suddenly erupt at night. It was a predicament for anyone, as there was no way to predict who would suddenly turn violent.

"Right, Youyou, your health is just recovering. You can’t be so willful and make Grandpa Lin and the others worry. Besides, if you catch a cold and get sick again, it will only give Grandpa Lin and Grandpa Shangguan more white hairs," Shangguan Qing said softly, ruffling Shangguan You’s hair with a light laugh. "Youyou, you study traditional Chinese medicine. You should know how much it takes and how long it takes to recover from just a few white hairs."

"Alright, alright, I won’t go then," Shangguan You pouted.

"Hahaha, Youyou’s upset now! Come on, it’s rare for you to visit. Come upstairs and play chess with your grandpa. We’ll leave this young man with Wenjie. Let’s go," Lin Wenbo said, breathing a heavy sigh of relief as he led Shangguan You upstairs to play chess.

Shangguan You and Shangguan Qing had just returned from the Lin residence and were entering their own home, laughing and chatting, when Shangguan You stopped short. The living room was packed with people. She stared in confusion. What on earth is going on? We were only out for a day. How did so many people suddenly show up at home?

"Youyou, the highest leader wants to see you!"

The words, though few, sent Shangguan You’s head spinning. The highest leader? Does that mean Chairman Fang? Why would he want to see me? I have no connection with him whatsoever!

Shangguan Qing also felt a shiver run down his spine. What on earth is happening? Why would the highest leader want to see Youyou? Has something occurred that I don’t know about?
