"Well, Mr. Xia, you know I'm a married man. If I had a female assistant to handle things by my side..."

Lin Jinglong didn't want Xia Wanying to stay by his side and serve him, after all, his three wives were all more beautiful and more capable than the last.

If they knew I'd hired a female assistant, they'd tear me apart!

What's wrong with that?

"She's just an assistant, responsible for things within your company!"

"Mr. Lin, do you think my daughter isn't good enough?" Xia Donghe asked, somewhat disappointed.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant!"

"How about we make Miss Xia our company's vice president?" Lin Jinglong said with a smile, scratching his head.

Xia Wanying was slightly taken aback, thinking that Lin Jinglong would be captivated by her beauty.

Most people would be overjoyed to hear that she was going to be their assistant, and might even be tempted by her, but Lin Jinglong actually refused outright.

Are his three wives prettier than him?

“Alright then! It’s a pleasure to work with Mr. Lin!” Xia Wanying said politely with a smile.

Soon, led by Xia Wanying and Xia Donghe, Lin Jinglong arrived at the top floor, signed the contract, and successfully took back his father's company.

Upon hearing the news that Lin Jinglong had taken over as chairman of the company, the entire Lin Group was in an uproar.

After all, many of them were former employees of the Lin family, and some were members of the Xia family.

Among these people, some were optimistic about Lin Jinglong, while others felt that Lin Jinglong was unlikely to amount to anything and that his management of the company would eventually lead to its demise.

Have you heard?

"The chairman of the board is Lin Jinglong?"

"What? That monk who's been a nun for three years?"

"What do you mean he's been a monk for three years? He's been practicing Taoism for three years; he's a charlatan!"

"It's over, it's over! This company is definitely doomed now that it's in Lin Jinglong's hands!"

The crowd whispered among themselves, but then the sound of high heels clicking on the ground silenced everyone.

Xia Wanying pushed open the door and entered, and a group of sales staff stared at her intently.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to our company's newest director, Mr. Lin Jinglong!"

"From now on, Mr. Lin is your big boss, and also my boss. No one is allowed to disrespect Chairman Lin!"

Xia Wanying's eyes swept over all the Xia family members, which effectively silenced those who had grievances.

"Tsk tsk! This Taoist priest Lin is quite lucky, he actually became Miss Xia's boss!"

"Not only that, I heard Miss Xia is his assistant!"

"Oh my God!"

"If I could have Miss Xia work as my assistant for a few days, I'd gladly give up ten years of my life!"

After all, Xia Wanying's figure was simply too good, and Xia Wanying had never had a boyfriend before; she was still a virgin.

No man could resist such a pure and innocent beauty!

But all they can do is feast their eyes!

......

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Beijing, in the grand hall of a magnificent villa, several figures were sitting together.

"Hmph! What audacity!"

"This Lin Jinglong actually dared to humiliate the Ma family in public and even beat my grandson like this!"

"What are you bunch of useless trash? What are you good for?"

"Can't even handle a mere kid!"

In the center of the hall, seated on the main seat, stood an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face, dressed in a gray robe. He stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of authority.

This person is Ma Tianhao's grandfather, and also the head of the Ma family, Ma Baoguo.

On both sides of the living room, twenty or thirty martial artists stood in two rows, and the entire hall was filled with a tense atmosphere.

"Grandpa! Waaah!"

"That good-for-nothing Lin Jinglong, I don't know where he learned his kung fu from!"

"After three years, you've transformed into a master!"

"Look what he did to me! Grandpa, you have to avenge me!"

"I want this bastard to suffer a fate worse than death, and I want that bitch Chen Muqing to kneel at my feet!"

"Waaah!"

Ma Tianhao's head was wrapped in bandages, and his whole body was covered in injuries, making him look terrible.

At this moment, Ma Zhanshan spoke up: "Son, you must learn to be patient. We kowtowed and admitted our mistakes before, all for the sake of the future!"

As the saying goes, "Where there's life, there's hope."

"Let this little bastard be arrogant for a few days, I'll make sure he dies a horrible death sooner or later!"

Ma Zhanshan's eyes narrowed into a dangerous slit.

"Dad! If all else fails, let's call those experts and take care of that Lin fellow!"

“He’s all alone, I don’t believe it…” Ma Tianhao suddenly said.

"Shut up!" Ma Zhanshan said hurriedly.

"Are those officials people we can just call out to anyone?"

"This kid is incredibly arrogant these days. I think it won't be long before his deeds spread among those people!"

"We just need to wait!"

Ma Zhanshan was very clever; those people wouldn't let Lin Jinglong, this monstrous genius, grow up unchecked.

"He can reach the Grandmaster level in three years. If this boy is not eliminated, he will surely become a great threat in the future!"

Ma Baoguo embarked on the path of martial arts in his youth, and it wasn't until a few years ago, with the help of several important figures, that he broke through to the Grandmaster realm.

This news was unknown even to the entire capital.

It was thought that the Ma family could win over Xia Donghe this time, and with Chen Sihai and another grandmaster, there would be four grandmasters in charge.

At that time, they can sweep across the entire capital, allowing the Ma family to rise to prominence and become the leading family among all the powerful clans in the capital.
