Chapter 1319: Chapter 1317: Mr. Lin is interested in recruitment 1316.

Tan Rou chuckled and said, “This story sounds a bit scary.”

Mr. Lin spread his hands, looking very helpless, “Indeed, it’s a very scary story. When I got kidnapped, I was trembling all over. Because I had never provoked anyone, and I’ve always been low-key. I never showed off my family’s wealth in front of others, so I didn’t think I would have conflicts with anyone.”

Tan Rou could also tell from Mr. Lin’s attire and manner of speaking that his family was well-off. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone abroad to study, let alone have the time and money to learn multiple languages.

“What happened next?” Tan Rou asked.

Mr. Lin answered with a smile, “They drove me to a place, and then they took off the black cloth over my head. When I opened my eyes, I saw about a dozen burly men surrounding me. They looked like gangsters, very intimidating.”

Tan Rou imagined such a scene. If she had been kidnapped and opened her eyes to so many people surrounding her, she probably would have been scared, too.

“At the time, I was so terrified that my face turned pale. I was just short of kneeling down and begging them to let me go.” Mr. Lin, recalling the incident, couldn’t help but press his temples, “I have to say, the way people in J country handle things is really simple and crude. When they set their sights on someone, they just kidnap them. They don’t give a damn about the laws of other countries. If I hadn’t understood the J language, I probably would have called the police on them.”

Tan Rou found it hard to evaluate Mr. Lin’s decision. If Tan Rou had been kidnapped out of the blue and then forced to translate, she certainly would not have taken it well, and she would have made them pay a price.

Mr. Lin’s thought process was also quite peculiar. He was so calm about being kidnapped and ended up happily translating for them. It can only be said that one was willing to kidnap, and the other willing to be kidnapped. No one should speak ill of the other.

Tan Rou and the other two were sitting at the table eating, but Laka couldn’t sit still. He ran around with a takeout box, admiring the exhibits while occasionally communicating with his bodyguards.

Tan Rou was afraid he would drip the soup from his meal onto her exhibits. She wanted to call Laka back to eat properly, but she felt that such behavior was a bit excessive, like a mother calling her disobedient son.

Mr. Lin sensed Tan Rou’s intention and said, “Miss Rou needn’t worry. If Laka dirties any of the exhibits inside your store, he will definitely buy them.”

This time Tan Rou was startled by Mr. Lin’s words. She felt that Mr. Lin could no longer simply be described as smart, because he seemed to be able to read minds, instantly picking up on her every new thought.

“Mr. Lin, can you read minds?” Tan Rou couldn’t help but ask.

Mr. Lin replied, “No, but Miss Rou’s thoughts are very easy to guess. Your facial expressions have already betrayed your thoughts, which is why I could easily tell what you were thinking.”

Tan Rou immediately composed all her emotions, and she showed a serene demeanor, “Mr. Lin is truly amazing.”

Mr. Lin explained, “In college, I studied psychology for a while, and I was very successful at it, so I can easily interpret people’s thoughts from their facial expressions and actions. If Miss Rou minds, I will refrain from guessing your thoughts in the future.”

Tan Rou had never met someone so impressive. It was a waste to have such a person working as a translator. He should be involved in criminal investigations, especially solving very difficult cases. She was sure Mr. Lin would be very good at it.

“Why is Miss Rou looking at me like that?” Mr. Lin asked with a slight smile. “Do you think I was too impolite?”

“Not at all,” Tan Rou shook her head and said, “I was just wondering when Mr. Lin might consider changing jobs.”

Mr. Lin was startled but then replied, “I don’t have such plans at the moment. First, I really like my job, and secondly, I’m not short of money, so I’m not thinking about resigning to change jobs.”

Tan Rou really wanted to hire Mr. Lin for TR Company, but she wouldn’t insist if he was unwilling, “Okay, if Mr. Lin ever considers changing jobs, please think about us at TR. TR’s doors will always be open for you.”
