My carefree life in space

Chapter 131 Seeking the Truth

Ning Ya was quite confident that the woman's granddaughter would have no chance of survival there. After all, it was a desolate planet, completely uninhabited, and a girl who knew nothing could not possibly survive.

She was also very proud of her decision, which allowed her to send the people away without leaving any evidence, since she had given them back an entire planet.

Lin Chenghui also knew about that planet. He only found out later that his mother had sent people there, but he never thought about bringing them back.

He's just a dispensable person; he won't care how his mother handles things.

"Mom, do you think there are clues there? That's impossible!" Lin Chenghui didn't think there was anything worth paying attention to on a waste planet.

"Let's go take a look first. I have a feeling something is off. Just to see what happens. If there's nothing unusual, I can still collect that girl's body." Ning Ya said these cold words without feeling anything was wrong.

"Alright, I'll make the arrangements in a bit." Lin Chenghui didn't want to go against his mother's wishes, so he agreed.

After discussing this matter, the mother and son focused their attention on the same thing.

"Eldest son, are Zihao and Keke just going to lie here like this?" Ningya couldn't shake the pain in her heart that her beloved grandchildren had become like this.

Upon hearing the question, Lin Chenghui's eyes dimmed. He was heartbroken, but he had tried every possible solution and was now truly at a loss.

Ning Ya knew this would be the outcome, but she was unwilling to accept it. What if a miracle happened?

Seeing his mother's current state, Lin Chenghui did not tell him about the setbacks the Lin family was facing, but he gathered his brothers and sisters to discuss it together.

"What? Our business has been stolen? Who did it? I'll crush him!" Lin Chengjin exploded upon hearing the news.

Lin Chengye, Lin Yuting, and Lin Yuwan also looked surprised. In their minds, their family had always been at the top of the industry, and no other family had ever been able to compete with them.

Seeing his brothers and sisters' expressions, Lin Chenghui felt a little tired. His younger brother had no skills, but he would rely on the Lin family's power to act arrogantly outside. He wouldn't feel at ease asking him to do anything.

As for my second brother, he is honest but lacks ability. I don't know if it's because I suppressed him too much when he was young, but now he can't handle anything at all.

As for his two younger sisters, he found their glamorous attire somewhat irritating. His nephews and nieces were already dressed like this, yet they, as their aunts, showed no empathy and only thought about how to get their share of the profits and enjoy it.

If Zihao were alright, he could forgive them no matter what, but now...

"I called you here today to give you a heads-up so you can be mentally prepared."

"What preparations are needed, big brother? You're not planning to cut our share of the profits, are you? That won't do!" Lin Yuting immediately jumped up, and the others also looked disapproving.

"Dividends, dividends, all you do is collect dividends, you can't help at all. It's not that bad yet, but if there's no way to break it, it's not impossible."

"It's just a new company. I'll have someone investigate it right now. I don't believe he really has some powerful backer," Lin Chengjin said dismissively.

Lin Chenghui didn't stop him. This younger brother had met quite a few people over the years, and might actually be able to help.

The other three looked at each other, knowing they all depended on the Lin family for survival and had no connections whatsoever, so they ultimately said nothing.

Lin Chenghui had already anticipated this outcome, so he waved his hand and sent them all away.

After everyone left, Lin Chenghui pressed his brows and thought of his son again. Was his son, a promising family heir, just going to be wasted like this?

What did Mother just say? If Zihao and Keke's actions were truly an act of revenge by that person, then...

No, it's impossible.

Lin Chenghui dismissed the guess in his mind, but remembering his mother's instructions, he immediately sent someone to check that planet.

Oh, right, we need to find out what that planet is called first. So many years have passed, he can't remember anymore.

A few days later, the people sent out returned.

"What? You can't land? How is that possible? Isn't that just a wasteland? Who would set up a protective shield there?"

Although Lin Chenghui asked the question, he had already sensed something unusual. Perhaps his mother's guess was correct.

"When we reached the planet's atmosphere, we thought we could land safely, but we were blocked by the rising protective shield, so we had to come back to report."

The people sent there answered truthfully that they did not know. They went just as Lin Shushu and Mo Ze were leaving. Otherwise, it would have been uncertain whether they could have returned unscathed!

Lin Chenghui didn't know how to tell his mother about this. He had previously sworn that nothing unusual would happen, but now...

Since there is a planetary protective shield, it means that the girl is not only not dead, but is also living well. Otherwise, how could she afford to pay the planetary maintenance fee?

But is that possible? She's just a little girl who doesn't know anything, unless someone helps her.

Who is this person? Lin Chenghui became more and more alarmed as he thought about it.

To his surprise, he still told his mother what he had found out.

"I knew it! That little bastard must not be dead. He must have come back for revenge!" Ning Ya shouted, her face contorted in pain upon hearing the news.

"Mom, calm down. There's no evidence yet."

"What other evidence do you need? I personally oversaw the transfer of that planet to that girl's name. Who else could it be but them?" Ning Ya wouldn't listen to her son's words at all.

She regrets it now. She carelessly let that girl out, and now she's created a future problem for herself.

"Mom, although your guess may be correct, think about it carefully. If it really is them, how did they manage to do it? As far as I know, they didn't have any outside help at all."

Hearing this, Ning Ya quieted down. Indeed, that bitch's family was utterly insignificant, and the little bastard she raised was so mediocre that he could never have accomplished such things.

Could it be?

"It must be your father helping them behind the scenes. I knew it. That old man can't forget that bitch."

Seeing his mother's thoughts getting increasingly out of control, Lin Chenghui quickly stopped her, "Mom, don't overthink it. It couldn't be Father. If he really wanted to interfere all these years, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but Ning Ya understood that if Lin Yu truly cared about them, he wouldn't have ignored what she had done.

Although her mind was beginning to waver, Ning Ya still wanted to verify it. "I'll go and confront your father."

Just as he was about to leave, Lin Chenghui grabbed him.

"What are you going to say when you go there? That you abused his own son and granddaughter?"

Ning Ya stopped in her tracks. Over the years, apart from their son Lin Chenghui, all their other children were born through assisted reproductive technologies under pressure from their parents. The two of them actually had no real affection for each other.

If I were to cause trouble and completely break off relations, the facade of peace that I have painstakingly maintained over the years would be shattered.

Considering the current situation at home, she knew it was not the right time to cause any more trouble, and finally calmed down.

Seeing that he had finally calmed his mother down, Lin Chenghui felt relieved for the time being. He had been exhausted lately and no longer had the energy to deal with his parents' affairs.

As for that planet and its inhabitants, let's investigate them slowly!
