To be honest, he knew his daughter's temperament; once she made up her mind about something, it was extremely difficult to get her to change her mind. If things continued to stalemate like this, she might really run off with that guy regardless of the consequences, and he would lose all face.

Lin Zhen paced back and forth in the room for a long time before finally making up his mind. He said to Ning Zhiheng, "Okay, it's a deal. Zhiheng, I know your good intentions and you understand my concerns. It would be best if everyone could be happy and there would be a good outcome. Otherwise, don't blame me for being unreasonable."

Upon hearing Lin Zhen's words, Ning Zhiheng was overjoyed. He quickly stepped forward and solemnly said to Lin Zhen, "Lord You, a gentleman's word is his bond!"

"A promise is a promise!" Lin Zhen sneered. "I, Lin, am not so pathetic as to be easily defeated. Otherwise, we can swear on a high five!"

Ning Zhiheng laughed heartily, waved his hands repeatedly, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency is too kind. Everyone knows that you always keep your word and never doubt it. How could I dare not believe you?"

Lin Zhen asked again, still somewhat uneasy, "But Zhiheng, are you really confident? My kids are all stubborn, none of them are easy to manage, so you'll have to be careful!"

"Don't worry, I will do my best. Just wait for the good news."

Ning Zhiheng was naturally confident. Lin Mucheng was not Lin Zhen. He was confident that he could deal with him. As long as Lin Zhen kept his promise, the matter would be settled.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Today's negotiations were full of twists and turns, but the result was good and he could be considered to have gained something.

With the matter settled, Ning Zhiheng still had many things to attend to, so he didn't linger. He bowed to Lin Zhen to say goodbye, and with Lin Zhen personally seeing him off, he left the Lin family, got into his car, and sped away.

After seeing Ning Zhiheng off, Lin Zhen turned around and saw Madam Lin standing on the steps looking at him with some surprise. She asked curiously, "This Director Ning is really something else. You even had to personally see him off. What is he here for?"

Lin Zhen shook his head as he looked at his wife's gossipy expression and said, "You were right, they really have come to propose marriage."

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin's face lit up with a smile. She quickly stepped forward, took Lin Zhen's hand, and eagerly asked, "Tell me quickly, what do you think of this Director Ning? He's quite a handsome man, isn't he? What's his character like?"

At this point, he couldn't help but shake his head, somewhat regretfully: "He's just too young. I don't know if Shulan will agree."

Lin Zhen was truly amused by his wife's words and couldn't help but say irritably, "You're overthinking it. He's here to propose marriage for his senior brother, Wei Liangbi. But this little fox is much more difficult to deal with than his senior brother. Luckily, it's not him, otherwise, if he really came to our door, my old bones would be in for a world of trouble!"
