169: On the wedding day, Su Qingge woke up today~~
Modu First Peoples Hospital.
In a certain ward.
"That scoundrel Lin Jianjun seems to have already sold his shares."
"Son, what do you think we should do next?"
Bai Yuelan's hair was disheveled, long past her usual elegance.
When speaking of her former partner, she gritted her teeth in hatred.
She couldn't understand why Lin Jianjun cared so much about blood relations.
Lin Hao had called him Daddy for so many years, wasn't that enough?!
Life is but thirty thousand days; it's better to be a little foolish.
"What else can we do? That old geezer almost killed me, so he probably won't be as easily fooled as before."
On the hospital bed.
Lin Hao touched his bandaged head, filled with shock, anger, and lingering fear.
At the same time, the last shred of affection he had for Lin Jianjun completely vanished.
However, he still chose not to give up.
Instead, he narrowed his eyes and analyzed coldly:
"That old geezer, after knowing I'm not his biological son, will definitely try to find Lin Xuan and use every trick to beg for his forgiveness."
"After all, once Lin Corporation goes bankrupt, Lin Xuan will be the only one he can rely on. If he succeeds, he might be able to make a comeback."
"He might even get access to Su Corporation's core business secrets, like that... prescription."
"And we are currently penniless. Our only chance to turn things around..."
"...is to find a way to stay by Lin Jianjun's side and, once he reconciles with Lin Xuan, seize the opportunity to get the manufacturing method for the Beauty Pill."
"..."
These days, Lin Hao had been closely watching market trends.
He was well aware of the value of the prescription in Lin Xuan's hands.
That thing could change his fate against all odds; he had to get it!!!
"But Lin Jianjun is heartless and unrighteous! After he found out you weren't his biological son..."
"...now he's eager to kill us. How could he possibly allow us to stay by his side?"
Although she largely agreed with her precious son's words.
Bai Yuelan also raised her concerns.
In response.
Lin Hao gritted his teeth and said with a gloomy face:
"My chances are indeed slim. After all, no man would accept a son who isn't biologically related to him."
"But Mommy, you're different. You're the white moonlight in his heart that he can't let go of."
"As long as you absolutely deny cheating and weave the specific circumstances of that year into a victim's story."
"That old geezer Lin Jianjun might soften and continue to dote on you excessively..."
"..."
After listening to Lin Hao's speech, Bai Yuelan's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"Yes, yes, yes! Son, you're right!"
"I managed to charm that scoundrel completely back then, and now he still can't escape from my grasp."
Next, the mother and son began to discuss the details of their plan.
An hour later.
Lin Hao was discharged early and returned to the employee dormitory with his mother.
As soon as they entered the door, they were met with a pair of fiery eyes.
"(╰_╯)# You beast, you still dare to appear before me? You're asking for death!!!"
Slap!!!
Upon seeing Lin Hao enter.
The rage in Lin Jianjun's heart was uncontrollable. He rushed forward and slapped him across the face.
"Daddy, please don't hit Xiao Hao."
"Even without a blood relation, we are still family! Wuwuwu..."
Lin Hao suppressed his anger, covering his tear-streaked face, constantly reminding himself to endure!!!
Behind him, Bai Yuelan also cried out at the opportune moment, her wails heart-wrenching.
"Husband! Please listen to my sophistry... no, listen to my explanation. I am a victim too!"
"A victim? Screw your victim!!! You still have the nerve to call me husband, you wretch!"
Lin Jianjun was seething with resentment. He kicked Bai Yuelan in the stomach, knocking her to the ground... then he sat on her neck and started punching her.
"You slut, how dare you cuckold me. I'll beat you to death!"
"Tell me, who is that adulterer? Are you going to tell me? If you don't tell me who the adulterer is, I'll beat you to death!"
"..."
In less than half a minute, Bai Yuelan was beaten to a bloody pulp, a truly horrific sight.
But Lin Jianjun completely ignored her, his face ferocious, relentlessly throwing punches.
As the saying goes: the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred.
The thought of being fooled like an idiot for decades.
Lin Jianjun was utterly enraged, wanting nothing more than to force her to reveal who the adulterer was?!
Seeing that things were going awry, Lin Hao rushed forward to pull Lin Jianjun away.
"This is a misunderstanding, Daddy. It's not what you think. Mommy is a forced victim!"
"What?"
Hearing that there was more to the story, Lin Jianjun frowned and stopped punching.
Bai Yuelan seized the opportunity, explaining while spitting blood.
"Husband, cough, cough... listen to me! I truly didn't know before; I always thought Hao'er was your child."
"That day, my best friend insisted I go. I thought it was just a simple drink..."
"I didn't want to deal with that man, but I didn't expect him to drug me. I resisted with all my might at the time..."
"By the time I woke up, everything was irreversible. The next day, I took medicine. Logically speaking... it shouldn't have..."
"It's better to be a little foolish as a person; it's enough if the child resembles you a little."
"Actually, I'm also a victim. Can't you be a little understanding of me?"
"How much did I suffer giving birth? Do you only care if the child is yours? Once a child is born, it's a life..."
"..."
Bai Yuelan silently shed tears, appearing pitiful and vulnerable.
She sobbed, recounting her misfortunes.
In short, one sentence.
She and Xiao Hao were both innocent victims, and as a man, you shouldn't be so petty.
These shameless words almost made Lin Jianjun's brain vessels burst with anger.
He was furious and was about to continue hitting her when he heard Lin Hao, who was kneeling beside him, loudly swearing:
"Daddy! You still love Xiao Hao, right! Wuwuwu..."
"Didn't we say we'd be family forever?"
"As long as you're willing to give me a chance to be your son again..."
"I will definitely be doubly filial to you in the future. I'll take care of you in your old age. Mommy and I will give you all the money we earn, and we'll serve you well for the rest of our lives."
"..."
Take care of me in my old age?
Hand over all the money earned?
Faced with Lin Hao's sincere guarantees, Lin Jianjun hesitated and stopped his actions for a moment.
He knew that after losing Lin Corporation, his chances of making a comeback were slim.
And that unfilial son, Lin Xuan, probably wouldn't forgive him easily either.
This would be a protracted battle!
During this time, someone would have to take care of his daily needs like eating, drinking, and using the restroom.
He certainly couldn't afford a nanny.
So, these free laborers might as well be used.
Once Lin Xuan and I clear the air, I'll settle all accounts with this mother and son once and for all.
For now, I can use them first... "Alright, I'll forgive you if you wish."
"But the emotional damage you've caused me must be compensated with the rest of your lives."
"From now on, if I tell you to go east, you cannot go west. You must obey my every command."
Lin Jianjun stood up expressionlessly, hands on his hips, and issued his orders.
"Of course, Daddy. Xiao Hao will listen to you from now on."
"Husband, cough, cough... don't worry, I will listen to you from now on and strive to be a good wife and mother."
Lin Hao and his mother both nodded repeatedly, bowing subserviently, their attitudes extremely respectful.
Although their hearts were filled with rage.
To achieve their ultimate goal, both chose to endure!!!
Lin Hao even kept repeating "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river" in his mind to motivate himself.
Thus, the two parties, each with their own ulterior motives, temporarily lived together in a strange arrangement.
Only the atmosphere of a loving family that once existed was long gone... The next morning.
As dawn broke, accompanied by the chirping of birds in the branches.
Lin Xuan naturally opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
Today was the day he and Su Qingge were to fulfill their marriage contract.
"Finally... this day has come."
"I don't know why, but my mood feels a bit complicated. What's going on?"
Lin Xuan felt a strange sense of emotion for a while, then got up to wash, and as usual, left the house.
He first went to the Modu First Peoples Hospital and met Ma Yingzhe.
"Boss, I have not failed your trust!"
"These are the 92% shares currently recovered! The rest are small shareholders and some minor shareholders you specifically mentioned. Please sign here!"
"With these shares, Lin Corporation will be yours alone to command from now on."
"However, the company is about to enter bankruptcy liquidation procedures. Boss, if you have any ideas, it's best to implement them quickly. Otherwise, it will be too late..."
"..."
Taking the contract handed to him by Ma Yingzhe, Lin Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
The other party's efficiency was far higher than he had imagined, at least a week ahead of his estimated time.
And he was not a stingy person, so he decided to transfer 2% of the shares to Ma Yingzhe, effectively binding him completely to Lin Corporation.
After all, if you want a horse to run, you have to let it eat grass.
A combination of grace and power is the way of a king.
Simply demanding that the other party remember the life-saving kindness and work like a slave is ultimately inferior.
Only by becoming a community of shared interests with the other party will they be motivated to act on your behalf in the future.
So, even though Ma Yingzhe tried to decline, feeling undeserving.
Lin Xuan still firmly insisted that he accept it.
And appointed him as the public spokesperson for Lin Corporation, fully in charge of company affairs.
Unless it was a key policy that could affect the company's future direction.
Otherwise, minor matters were left entirely to Ma Yingzhe's own judgment and action.
Immediately after.
Lin Xuan began the first step in saving Lin Corporation.
After all, Lin Corporation now belonged to him.
So he certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch it go bankrupt.
"You know about the Su Family's Beauty Pill, right? This is the prescription!"
"Arrange for people to start production immediately. It is the key to the company's revival."
Taking the blank paper handed to him by Lin Xuan, it was densely covered with various complex medical knowledge.
Ma Yingzhe only glanced at it and felt a headache coming on; this was not his area of expertise.
However, regarding the boss presenting the Beauty Pill prescription.
He had expected it and was not surprised; it was indeed the only way for the company to revive.
But the next second!
Lin Xuan pulled out three more blank papers from his embrace and handed them to Ma Yingzhe.
He explained that these were the manufacturing methods for other beauty products and asked for them to be developed quickly.
This truly surprised Ma Yingzhe.
So many miraculous prescriptions; it's hard for an ordinary person to get even one.
But where did Lin Xuan get so many at once?
Curious as he was.
Ma Yingzhe was not a fool and naturally wouldn't actively ask such private questions.
Anyway, whatever the boss says, we do.
Following the boss's footsteps is the way to get rich.
Soon.
After explaining everything, Lin Xuan got up and left the hospital.
He first went to the flower shop and, as usual, bought a violet.
Then, with light steps, he returned to the Su Family... "Good morning, Son-in-law!"
"Mr. Lin... no, Son-in-law. Good morning!"
"Son-in-law, you should change your clothes later! Today is a joyous day, so you should wear red!"
"..."
As soon as he walked into Su Family Manor, Lin Xuan noticed that the manor was exceptionally festive today, as if filled with a New Year's atmosphere everywhere.
Red lanterns, red couplets, red balloons... Everyone he met no longer called him "Mr. Lin" but naturally upgraded to "Son-in-law."
This made Lin Xuan feel a little embarrassed... "Son-in-law, please follow me. The Chairman has prepared clothes for you and Miss respectively."
Liu Juan appeared suddenly in front of Lin Xuan, as if she had been waiting for a long time, leading him, who was a bit dazed, to a dressing room filled with clothes... Ten minutes later.
When Lin Xuan walked out again, he was already wearing a tailor-made red groom's suit.
As he returned to the familiar maiden's boudoir with a strange feeling...
Pushing open the door, what greeted his eyes was... a small room decorated with a romantic atmosphere.
The entire bridal chamber was decorated festively and exquisitely.
Red bedsheets and curtains exuded a sweet scent.
In addition, some flowers and candles were placed on the floor and walls, emitting a faint fragrance, making people feel warm and comfortable.
"It's quite atmospheric..."
Looking at the greatly changed room, Lin Xuan's lips unconsciously curved into an arc.
On the red wedding bed.
Su Qingge still slept peacefully, like a sleeping beauty.
But her attire today made Lin Xuan stare in a daze, his breathing quickening.
A large red gauze dress perfectly accentuated the girl's body curves, as if an angel had descended to the human world.
Her face was as delicate and beautiful as a flower, paired with light red makeup, making her utterly stunning.
It made Lin Xuan's heart race, and he felt a momentary flutter of excitement.
At this moment.
The entire scene was beautiful, like a fairyland on earth...
