665: Huo Tingfeng and the others were in despair! Lin Xuan was actually [L]?

Ding dong—

The elevator doors slowly opened, and Ma Yingzhe, leading a group of business magnates, filed out.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they were immediately drawn in by the tense, sword-drawn atmosphere before them.

Hmm?

Why hasn't the boss left the company yet?

Before Ma Yingzhe could quickly step forward to greet him, Huo Tingfeng's eyes instantly widened, glowing with excitement like a hungry wolf spotting its prey.

He didn't stop for a moment, rushing over impatiently.

"Mr. Ma! Mr. Ma! You've finally arrived!"

"You are the great savior of our Huo Family! Our Huo Family has been eagerly waiting to see you!"

"I heard that Mr. L of the Lin Corporation is currently doing business at your company?"

"May I ask if you could introduce us?"

...

At this moment, Huo Tingfeng's face was plastered with a fawning smile.

But that smile was so twisted it looked more like a cry, and he was bowing and scraping, his posture so low it was practically in the dust, muttering "Mr. Ma" repeatedly.

As he spoke, his hands reached out like an octopus's tentacles, attempting to straighten Ma Yingzhe's collar.

His utterly obsequious manner made everyone around him frown, filled with disdain.

However, the other members of The Huo Clan, seeing this, not only showed no embarrassment but swarmed forward like a tide.

All sorts of flattering words spewed out like a barrage of cannon fire:

"Mr. Ma, thanks to you! The future of our Huo Family is now as stable as Mount Tai."

"Yes, yes, we'll have to rely on Mr. Ma's continued care and support in the future!"

"Mr. Ma, could you do us a favor? Introduce us to Mr. L? Our Huo Family will be greatly indebted!"

"That's right! We and your company are soon to become business partners! A meeting is very reasonable!"

...

Facing the fawning and servile flattery of the Huo Family members, Ma Yingzhe's expression was as cold as ice.

He simply sidestepped slightly, easily avoiding Huo Tingfeng's outstretched hand.

He completely ignored The Huo Clan's enthusiastic attempts to curry favor.

As for the business magnates following behind Ma Yingzhe... some had a mocking sneer on their lips, as if ridiculing the ignorance and foolishness of the Huo Family members.

Others shook their heads helplessly, their eyes filled with disdain, as if watching a group of ridiculous clowns.

At this point, these magnates all clearly understood that the Lin Corporation's scheme against the Huo Family was a meticulously crafted, interconnected plan.

Yet, the Huo Family members were still like fools in the dark.

They kept saying they wanted to meet the head of the Lin Corporation, but they didn't even recognize Mr. L when he was right in front of them.

They even continued to regard the Lin Corporation as their lifeline, clinging to it tightly, which was utterly laughable!!!

...As the saying goes:

[The one in the game is lost, the bystander sees clearly.]

Huo Tingfeng, like a headless fly, still hadn't noticed the strangeness of the crowd.

His eyes darted around, and he began to scheme again.

He thought to himself.

With Ma Yingzhe here to back him up, this was the perfect opportunity to use him to humiliate Lin Xuan, and he couldn't let it slip away... Thinking this, Huo Tingfeng suddenly turned his head, his face instantly replaced with that arrogant and overbearing expression.

He strained his voice, mocking loudly with all his might:

"Hey, you kid over there! Are your dog eyes blind?"

"Didn't you see Mr. Ma in person? Why aren't you hurrying over to pay your respects?"

"Just a live-in son-in-law like you, a disgrace among men!!! A completely undignified thing! How much ability could you possibly have?"

"Maybe Mr. Ma will be merciful and grant you a security guard job that pays over ten thousand a month, you should be secretly happy!"

...

Ma Yingzhe was originally smiling, preparing to greet Lin Xuan.

But suddenly hearing Huo Tingfeng's harsh mockery, anger immediately flared in his heart.

He spun around abruptly and delivered a powerful kick to Huo Tingfeng's backside.

The kick was so forceful that it sent Huo Tingfeng stumbling, nearly making him fall flat on his face.

"Shut your stinking mouth!"

"If you dare to disrespect the Boss again, see how I'll deal with you!!!"

...

Ma Yingzhe's eyes were wide with fury as he roared.

Then, he immediately put away his angry expression and respectfully walked over to Lin Xuan, bowing slightly, his tone as humble as a subject serving his monarch.

He asked softly:

"Boss, why are you still at the company?"

"If there are any new instructions, please feel free to speak."

(ÒωÓױ)???!!!!!!!!

This sudden scene was like a powerful bomb, instantly exploding in the hearts of the Huo Family members.

The entire place fell silent in an instant, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was frozen as if under a spell, staring dumbfounded at the incredible sight before them.

Huo Tingfeng was so shocked his jaw nearly hit the floor.

The arrogant smile on his face instantly froze, as if paused in a frame, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

He couldn't believe his ears, even suspecting he was hallucinating... Ma Yingzhe was actually respectfully calling Lin Xuan "Boss"?

Didn't this mean that Lin Xuan was the mysterious head of the Lin Corporation, the God of Song [L] whom they had painstakingly tried to curry favor with???

How could this be possible?!!!

Impossible! Absolutely impossible, ahhh w(゚Д゚)w!!!!!!!!

...Looking at the dumbfounded expressions of the Huo Family members, Lin Xuan's lips curled into a playful smile, and he said softly:

"How about it?"

"Unexpected? Surprising?"

...

His tone was light and casual, as if all of this was merely a small game he had meticulously planned... Huo Tingfeng's face turned pale, and his body trembled.

When the facts were laid bare before him, he had no choice but to believe them.

Countless images flashed through his mind at this moment—the bidding at the auction, that E-grade wasteland, the Lin Corporation's cooperation contract... Everything, like a giant invisible spiderweb, had him firmly trapped.

"You, you... you were indeed deliberate!"

Huo Tingfeng finally reacted, gritting his teeth and saying:

"At the auction, you deliberately raised the price to harm our Huo Family!!!"

PS:

There's a famous quote from 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' that has been passed down through the ages:

"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

[When you have eliminated all the impossibilities, no matter what remains, no matter how incredible, it must be the truth].
