141: Countdown to wedding night!

Lin Corporation, headquarters.In the meeting room.Hearing that Lin Jianjun had returned empty-handed without obtaining the Beauty Pill's formula, the numerous board members were all extremely anxious.

"Old Lin, shouldn't you hurry back to the Su Family?"

"You must get your son's forgiveness. We know this is a great humiliation for you, but a small impatience will ruin a great plan!"

"The company's stock price has already fallen to rock bottom. We're all going to go bankrupt, so what's the point of saving face?"

"Look at our faces; the previous disfigurement symptoms are mostly gone. This is all thanks to the Su Family's Beauty Pill."

To persuade Lin Jianjun to change his mind, some shareholders took off their masks, revealing well-recovered faces, to prove the effectiveness of the Beauty Pill.

"See? The Su Family's product indeed has excellent beautifying effects, and there are no side effects."

"Now, relying on this pill, the Su Family is receiving rave reviews in Demon City, becoming a 'conscientious enterprise' in the public's eyes."

"Our Lin Corporation needs such a miraculous product to underpin us if we want to reverse the trend of bankruptcy."

"And we also need to form a business alliance with the highly reputable Su Family to regain public trust."

"I see that Su Shengtian values your son greatly! This means that to get on good terms with the Su Family, you first need to build a good relationship with your son."

"Old Lin, what time is it? We should kneel if we need to kneel, and kowtow if we need to kowtow! Forget about face!"

...

A group of people surrounded Lin Jianjun, earnestly trying to persuade him.If there were no hope of salvation, it would be fine... they could then calmly resign themselves to their impending bankruptcy.But there was a chance for "resurrection" right before their eyes.If they could seize it, the company would not only survive the crisis but also potentially usher in new opportunities.In this situation, no normal person would easily give up; instead, they would choose to cling to it tightly...

"Enough! All of you, shut up! Do you think I don't want to save the company?"

"I am the Chairman of Lin Corporation, the one with the largest shareholding. I don't want the company to go bankrupt more than any of you, okay?!"

"But that beast isn't acting like a son, so what can I do?!"

Under the relentless pressure from the shareholders, Lin Jianjun could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and roared loudly.He had already been fuming at the Su Family, and upon returning to the company, he had to endure the sarcastic remarks of these people.Who could possibly accept that?!Especially when all these people, in their words and tone, were telling him to humble himself before that beast?Had they never considered... that he was Lin Xuan's father, the one who bore and raised him!!!

"I stood outside the door for a full hour, almost sweating dry! But that beast wouldn't even let me in, so what could I do?!"

"Later, for the sake of the company, I braved the pouring rain, disregarding the risk of getting sick, and waited there! Letting the cold, icy rain lash mercilessly against my face!"

"Do you know how low the temperature was then?! I almost froze to death!!!"

"But that unfilial son was just heartless, what could I do???"

"Anyway, I won't accept this humiliation again! If you want to seek forgiveness, you can go yourselves."

...

The more Lin Jianjun spoke, the more agitated he became, feeling utterly disgraced.His eyes were red, and his heart was filled with immense grievance.Regarding Lin Xuan's ruthlessness, all that remained in him was despair, only boundless resentment...Throughout history:If the ruler commands a minister to die, the minister must die.If the father commands a son to die, the son must die.As an elder, he should be the one who controls Lin Xuan's life and death.Yet, he was repeatedly humiliated and troubled by his unfilial son.Is there any justice in this? Is there any morality?!Lin Jianjun originally thought that by presenting the rights and wrongs to everyone, they would surely understand his grievances, Ծ‸Ծ stand by him, and help him denounce and curse Lin Xuan, that unfilial son...Unfortunately, the opposite was true!The numerous shareholders didn't care about his sorrowful tales at all.They just wanted him to quickly go and kneel to apologize to his unfilial son, begging for his forgiveness.

"Old Lin, that's where you're wrong. The meaning of us going to the Su Family and you going to the Su Family is different. Who made you Lin Xuan's father?"

"Chairman, ultimately, you have only yourself to blame. Why did you treat your son like that before? If you had been a little kinder to Lin Xuan, would we be in this situation now?"

"Exactly, exactly, Old Lin, you don't need to feel wronged; this is all your own doing! I always thought Bai Yuelan had a husband-killing face. Look, the company is almost destroyed because of her."

"That illegitimate son of yours, he's not an easy one either! But his acting is truly clumsy; I could see through it instantly, only you couldn't!"

"Talking so much is useless! Let's discuss how to get your son's forgiveness! The company is in critical danger right now; where do you have time to throw a childish tantrum?!"

"Thinking it over, there's only one way: kneeling and apologizing. And Old Lin must also write a letter of guarantee, promising to forever sever ties with Lin Hao and his mother."

...

Everyone offered their suggestions, one after another.They completely disregarded Lin Jianjun, whose face was utterly grim.He finally understood that these scoundrels, for their own benefit, would not care about his dignity.So, with a cold face, he stood up and left the meeting room on his own, completely ignoring the shouts of the directors behind him, only leaving behind one sentence:

"I won't go. If you want to go, go yourselves."

As soon as he said this, many shareholders showed their displeasure and began to make sarcastic remarks towards Lin Jianjun's retreating back.

"Oh my~~ Old Lin, you really have a good mindset! The company is about to go bankrupt, and you still can't let go of your Chairman's demeanor."

"Can't compare! Can't compare! If we had half of Chairman Lin's mindset, maybe we could even live a few more years!"

"Young Master Lin is truly pitiful, having such a scumbag father; he must be heartbroken!"

...

Listening to the constant sarcastic remarks from behind him, Lin Jianjun's face was ashen.However, he still suppressed the urge to turn around and curse, leaving the meeting room in a few quick steps.All he wanted now was to hurry home and receive comfort from his lovely wife and precious son. (ﾉ"◑ ◑)ﾉ" (｡•́︿•̀｡)Compared to that unfilial son, Bai Yuelan and her son were the true family who would think of him...Soon, Lin Jianjun's back disappeared from the meeting room, causing the dissatisfaction among the shareholders to escalate further.Damn it!The company is about to go bankrupt, and you, as Chairman, are deserting in the face of battle?!If not for the last shred of dignity, someone might have directly cursed him out.Even though Lin Jianjun had already left, many were still making sarcastic remarks...

"Alright, everyone quiet down! We still have a chance!"

Just then, Bai Jinglong, who had been silent all along, spoke up.He held up his phone screen, shaking it in front of everyone, with a hint of hope:

"Su Shengtian's press conference will be held tomorrow."

"It's also clearly marked in red on the official website that the developer of the Beauty Pill will also be present."

"At that time, we'll figure out a way to approach that founder, and get in touch with him first."

"No matter the cost, we must get the formula from him, or simply abduct him from the Su Family..."

After glancing at Bai Jinglong's phone, everyone nodded repeatedly, approving the plan.After all, at this point, there was no other way...

"ε = (´ ο ｀ *))) Alas! We can only do this for now; I hope that developer is easy to talk to!"

"The Su Family's luck is soaring this year! The group's market value has at least doubled in just a few days! Is the 'double happiness' effect really that strong? I'm envious!"

"Old Lin is too stubborn! Even if we can contact the developer of the formula, the price we'll have to pay will definitely be very heavy."

"I don't understand him! That developer clearly has a close relationship with the Su Family; if we can get on good terms with the Su Family, won't all problems be solved?"

"Who knows what he's thinking? They're both his sons, why be so biased and cause such a rift between father and son?! Incomprehensible!"

...

Amidst the complaints of the many shareholders, the meeting hastily concluded...The night passed without incident.The next morning, the sun shone brightly.Lin Xuan still woke up early, and after washing up, he left his room. As he went downstairs, he happened to run into Liu Juan.She was leading four maids upstairs, each carrying various daily necessities, all of which were red without exception.

"Mr. Lin, good morning."

"Good morning. What do you have there... bedding?"

After a simple greeting, Lin Xuan looked at the items in their hands, his face showing a strange expression.He had already roughly guessed the purpose of these items.Liu Juan did not hide it, but smiled brightly:

"These are all at Chairman Su's command..."

"He said that although there won't be a grand wedding, the necessary sense of ceremony must still be there."

"Over the next two days, some items will be continuously added to the manor to increase a festive atmosphere."

"These I have are newly delivered bedding, such as sheets, pillowcases, mattresses, etc., and they are all in a romantic red color."

"Mr. Lin, congratulations in advance on your wedding. In two days, I will officially address you as 'son-in-law'!"

Facing the teasing of these women, Lin Xuan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.It was his first marriage, and he still felt a bit shy.Although the two had not yet registered their marriage, for a prominent family like this, the certificate was actually secondary. It could be obtained at any time, representing a legal marriage.However, the older generation, like Su Shengtian, placed more importance on private ceremonies like this wedding.Once the wedding was held, they were essentially no different from husband and wife.If it weren't for Su Qingge's special situation, the old man would have definitely held a grand banquet, inviting guests from all directions, rather than choosing to act so low-key.However, he had also said in advance... that after his Granddaughter woke up, they would hold a grand supplementary wedding for the young couple.

"Hehe, same to you, same to you..."

"Then you all be busy, be busy. I won't disturb you."

Looking at Lin Xuan's departing back, Liu Juan's eyes were filled with complex emotions and emotion.When she first saw this young man, she was actually very displeased and felt sad for her Young Lady.Especially since Lin Xuan's reputation wasn't very good.Under the influence of preconceived notions, both she and the others in the manor felt that it was a fresh flower stuck in cow dung, a toad wanting to eat swan meat.But who would have thought that in just a few weeks, Lin Xuan would use his abilities to make everyone in the Su Family completely change their views?Whether it was saving the Su Family from bankruptcy with over 3 billion, or his own musical talent, or his deep affection for their Young Lady, and the hope of recovery he brought... The outsiders might not know about these various actions during this period, but they were all perfectly clear to her.Immediately, her initial disdain gradually transformed into admiration and respect.No one felt that Lin Xuan was unworthy of their Young Lady anymore.These two... they were clearly a perfect match!!!On the other side.The Goubuli Baozi shop.This time, Lin Xuan did not choose to sit down, but smiled playfully, then came to the stall next door...

"Boss lady, one jianbing guozi."

"Ah... Oh, oh! Just a moment, it'll be ready soon!"

In front of the jianbing stall stood an ordinary-looking but beautiful woman. As soon as she saw the handsome and dashing Lin Xuan, her eyes lit up.

What a handsome young man~~He's here again, could he be interested in me?!So handsome, so handsome, he's totally my type!!!I really want to get close to him~~~Only a man like this is worth enjoying~~~Mu Xiaowan worked with a serious expression, but in her heart, she was screaming like a fangirl. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧But to avoid being abrupt with her idol, at the end of making the jianbing, she feigned curiosity:

"Young man! I think I saw you yesterday too. Do you have a friend in the hospital?"

"Yes, I'm here to visit a friend. She's having surgery today."

Lin Xuan didn't lie. Ma Yingzhe's wife was having surgery today, and after all, he was a valuable talent he had managed to poach.As an employer, Lin Xuan felt it was necessary to show some concern.After all, he wouldn't have the energy to personally handle the acquisition of the Lin Family's shares later; entrusting it to Ma Yingzhe was the most suitable option.

"I see! Then I wish your friend a speedy recovery."

"Mhm, thank you."

Mu Xiaowan was very skilled at captivating men.Through Lin Xuan's attire and demeanor, she knew that this kind of man wasn't the type who would be paralyzed by the sight of a woman.Although she was confident in her looks, to hunt such a high-quality man, she probably needed to put in some effort.So, Mu Xiaowan didn't act rashly.First, a simple greeting, then next time they meet, she could ask for his WeChat; everything would seem natural.Anyway, the other party had a friend hospitalized here, so they would definitely meet again.Soon, the two parted naturally...
