The streets were bustling with traffic.
Seeing that Lin Xuan ignored him and got straight into the back seat of the taxi.
Lin Jianjun's face grew even darker. He turned his head and shouted at the taxi driver, who was enjoying the drama:
"I'm buying this broken car of yours."
"I order you to refuse this unfilial brat a ride and kick him out of the car immediately!"
Driver: "???"
Hey!
Does this guy have a problem?!
He dares to insult my precious work companion by calling it a broken car?
The driver was about to lose his temper when he heard Lin Jianjun impatiently urge him: "You fool! What are you waiting for? I am the chairman of the Lin Group! Do you think I can't afford your broken car?"
"Is 100,000 enough? 500,000? Or even 1,000,000?"
Hearing this, the driver's anger subsided by more than half.
After all, no one would say no to money.
Half-skeptical, he got out of the car, opened his mobile payment app, and placed it in front of Lin Jianjun:
"Pay first! 200,000, how do you want to transfer it?"
"Hahaha… You poor people really have such low ambitions. You only dare to ask for a mere 200,000? Hao'er, transfer it to him."
Faced with such direct humiliation, the driver thought of his wife and children at home. He took a deep breath and forced himself to hold back his anger.
At this moment, Lin Hao looked troubled and whispered to Lin Jianjun:
"But, Daddy, our cash flow is a bit tight right now…"
If this were before, not to mention 200,000, even 2 million could be given away without a second thought.
But now, in order to gather 3.5 billion, almost all of their assets had been sold off.
Now, they were even forced to live in employee dormitories. Where would they still have money?
As for the [Beauty Cream], it had only recently become popular. It would still take some time before the company started paying dividends…
"Oh my, oh my~~"
"The great chairman of Lin Group… don't tell me you can't even afford a mere 200,000?"
In the back seat of the taxi, Lin Xuan's face was full of mockery as he exaggerated his tone.
"You bastard, how dare you talk! If it weren't for you, how could I have fallen to this state?"
"If you had just handed over your shares to me unconditionally, would 200,000 even be a problem? In the end, it's all your fault, you ungrateful son!"
"What a disgrace to the family! When you die, do you have the face to see your mother, your grandparents, or our Lin ancestors?"
"....."
Faced with Lin Jianjun's idiotic words, Lin Xuan couldn't even be bothered to reply. He simply rolled up the backseat window.
Seeing this, Lin Jianjun became even more furious.
Just as he was about to start cursing again, a sharp pain struck his face.
Slap!!!
"You motherf***er! Wasting my time, acting rich when you have no money, and even trying to boss me around!"
Seeing that Lin Jianjun couldn't pay up, the driver exploded in rage and started beating him up to avenge the humiliation from earlier.
Then, he returned to the driver's seat, cursing as he started the car and drove away…
"You unfilial son! You'll regret this!!!"
"I've already announced to the company's shareholders that Hao is the true heir of the Lin family."
"And you… will never return to the Lin family! The company will never have anything to do with you again."
Watching the taxi drive away, Lin Jianjun, his clothes in disarray, struggled to stand with Lin Hao's help and furiously yelled at the disappearing taillights.
Thinking back on all his recent misfortunes, Lin Jianjun believed that they were all caused by Lin Xuan.
Towards this unfilial son, he felt only hatred—there was no longer any fatherly love.
"Hao'er, you must succeed!"
"In the future, make Lin Group bigger and stronger! Make that unfilial son jealous and regretful!"
"Daddy is getting old. Sooner or later, the future of the group will belong to you."
Hearing Lin Jianjun's heartfelt words, Lin Hao was overjoyed.
Finally… finally, it was settled?!
Lin Group was basically under his full control now.
With my talent and a billion-dollar company, I will undoubtedly rise to the top in Shanghai, controlling everything with just one hand.
Lin Hao suppressed his excitement and solemnly nodded at Lin Jianjun:
"Daddy! I will definitely work hard and never let you down."
"In the future, I will also be filial to you, and you will personally witness me leading Lin Group to the peak of Shanghai."
Hearing his youngest son's ambitious words, Lin Jianjun burst into laughter and repeatedly said, "Good, good, good!"
He laughed with pride, as if he could already see the day when Lin Hao would lead the Lin family to glory.
As for this youngest son, Lin Jianjun had always been extremely satisfied.
The only regret he had was Lin Hao's appearance.
For example, his fair complexion and single eyelids were almost entirely inherited from Bai Yuelan, looking nothing like him at all.
But that wasn't a big problem—after all, he was still his good son.
Compared to his other son, Lin Xuan, who looked more like him but always made him so angry that his heart ached…
Lin Hao was his true masterpiece.
He would be the one to truly inherit everything from the Lin family and restore its former glory.
At this moment, Lin Jianjun seemed to notice something and frowned as he asked: "Hao'er, have you been stressed lately? Why do you have several red rashes on your cheeks?"
"Do I? No wonder my face has been feeling itchy today. Maybe I haven't been getting enough rest lately."
Lin Hao scratched his itchy cheek and replied nonchalantly.
"Hmm, it's nothing! Just apply some of our [Beauty Cream], and I'm sure the rash will disappear soon."
"Alright, let's go home! We've been out for so long, your mom must be worried."
"Yeah, I want to go home and see Mommy too."
After saying that, Lin Hao held his father's broad hand and, like an innocent child, skipped along as he led Lin Jianjun back home…
As evening fell, a taxi slowly stopped in front of the Su family estate.
The backseat door opened, and Lin Xuan stepped out.
"Mr. Lin, you're back."
"Hi! (.???.) Hello, Mr. Lin!"
Along the way, many people greeted Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded in response, but he did not stop walking and headed straight to the second floor…
Meanwhile, in a pristine, spotless girl's bedroom…
A breathtakingly beautiful girl, like a fairy who had fallen to the mortal world, was lying peacefully in bed, asleep.
If someone could hear her thoughts at this moment, they would surely be shocked.
Because despite her serene appearance, her mind was anything but peaceful.
Instead, she was chattering non-stop, like a nosy old lady…
'So bored~~'
'No one to talk to… Why has Lin Xuan been gone so long?'
'o( ̄ヘ ̄o#) Didn't he say he'd be right back?'
'Why is he taking so long? What's going on?'
'Come back already! I still want to hear the rest of that fairy tale you were telling me!'
'And today's massage therapy session isn't even finished yet?!'
'That guy Lin Xuan, o(>﹏<)o, could he have met a girl at some party?'
'Are the two of them having a romantic time together, whispering sweet nothings to each other?'
'(〃>皿<) No way, no way! It can't be!'
