For a moment, the atmosphere in the room miraculously eased a lot.

Seeing this, Lu Youzhen spoke again, "Lin Jingshen's two brothers are not capable. Before Lin Jingshen entered the company for internship, his two brothers were in important positions in the company. His two brothers made mistakes repeatedly and were stubborn and self-willed, causing the company to suffer a lot of losses."

"Moreover, both of them even paid to get into foreign universities to give themselves a good-looking academic degree." Lu Youzhen said, "Unlike Lin Jingshen, who was admitted to Peking University based on his own ability."

"The successor to the Lin family must be chosen from the three sons of the Lin family." Lu Youzhen said to Shen Xiagang.

Shen Xiagang nodded, "I know."

"What you don't know is that Lin Jingshen's father, Lin Zhenghao, is a very suspicious and selfish person. He only trusts his own people and would never hand over the Lin Group to an outsider no matter what."

“So, when Lin Zhenghao saw the situation of Lin Jingshen’s two brothers, he felt that he could not rely on these two sons.” Lu Youzhen said, “Now that he is still here, he can still restrain his two sons.”

"And even if he was there, his two sons would still get into trouble and cause great losses to the company." Lu Youzhen said, "You don't know, his two elder brothers are really incompetent and made the Lin Group lose a lot of money."

"Lin Zhenghao kept it a secret for the sake of his reputation and didn't let anyone know. But they themselves know how much they felt about the loss." Lu Youzhen said, "In this way, compared with his two useless brothers, Lin Jingshen stands out."

"At least Lin Jingshen was admitted to Peking University based on his own ability." Lu Youzhen said, "In terms of IQ and cultural knowledge, he is definitely better than his two brothers."

"So Lin Zhenghao now puts all his hopes on Lin Jingshen. He takes Lin Jingshen with him wherever he goes and lets Lin Jingshen learn business from him."

“Even when we go to auction land, we have to take him with us.” Lu Youzhen said, “If nothing unexpected happens, the Lin family will be handed over to Lin Jingshen to inherit in the future.”

The Shen family can indeed only be considered a middle-class family, and they don't know much about what's going on in the circle of wealthy people.

The only limited things I know are what Shen Xiagang's father heard in business occasions.

But not much.

The Shen family didn't know that the Lin family was banned by Zhou Shuyan in social circles.

When Shen Xiagang listened to Lu Youzhen say these things, it was just like listening to a storytelling. He was almost addicted to it.

"So, you think you can marry Lin Jingshen because of your son's status as a mother?" Shen Xiagang raised his eyebrows and said.

"If Lin Jingshen was just the youngest of the Lin family, you might still have some hope." Shen Xiagang said, "But if Lin Jingshen wants to inherit the entire Lin family in the future, Lin Zhenghao will definitely not agree to let you in."

"You are someone who can't help the Lin family in any way. Given your description of Lin Zhenghao, how could he possibly agree to this?"

"That's why I want to ask you for help." Lu Youzhen said, "Right now the Lin family doesn't know that I'm pregnant. If they knew, they would definitely force me to get an abortion since it's not yet the first trimester."

"So when the pregnancy is advanced and the baby cannot be aborted, I will let them know that I am still pregnant with a son. If they disagree, I will make a big deal out of this," said Lu Youzhen.

"The Lin family will definitely agree to my request unless they have no face left," Lu Youzhen said. "Even if they don't agree, they have to give me enough benefits."

"If the benefits are really great, then it's not certain whether I will marry into their family." Lu Youzhen said, raising her hand to pick at her nails and tearing off the barbs on her nails.

"You've said so much, and all the benefits are yours. What about my benefits?" Shen Xiagang asked urgently.

"Think about it, whose child is it?" Lu Youzhen looked up at Shen Xiagang and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Mine?" Shen Xiagang pointed at his nose. He was a little confused now. He didn't even deny that the child was his as vehemently as he did at the beginning.

"Of course." Lu Youzhen smiled confidently and nodded, "The child is yours, but the Lin family will help you raise the child. You don't have to spend money or effort, and I don't ask you to be responsible."

"If luck is good, this child will inherit the Lin family in the future." Lu Youzhen covered her belly, rubbed it a few times, and said, "How much do you think you earn? You are the biological father of the heir to the Lin family."

"Even if the child cannot inherit Lin's business, I can still take the shares for the child." Lu Youzhen said.

"With your help, I think my chances of success are very high." Lu Youzhen looked up, smiled confidently, and looked at Shen Xiagang.

"Not only do you not have to raise the child, you can also gain status through the son." Lu Youzhen said, "I will also give you a portion of the benefits the child gets as a reward for helping me."

"Tell me, is this something good for you?" Lu Youzhen asked with a raised eyebrow.

Shen Xiagang: "..."

Hearing Lu Youzhen say this, it really does have some benefits.

"How much do you want to give me?" Shen Xiagang asked.

"The work hasn't even been done yet, why are you asking this in such a hurry?" Lu Youzhen said.

"Of course I have to ask clearly. We also have to sign a contract to prevent you from turning your back on me later." Shen Xiagang narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Youzhen. "Also, let me be frank. I am really tempted by the benefits you mentioned and I really want them."

"So you'd better give me what you said, otherwise I will tell the Lin family about these things and expose you. The child is really mine, and the Lin family will make you pay for it."

"You have such a messy private life." Shen Xiagang said, "Although I'm still not sure that the child is mine. Even if the child is really Lin Jingshen's, the Lin family will not be better off with what you have done."

Shen Xiagang leaned back in his chair and said, "If that's the case, when the child is born, even if you don't ask me to do a paternity test, I will still do it."

"At that time, the result of the paternity test will be the best contract signature between us." Shen Xiagang said.

"So, you'd better not lie to me, otherwise don't blame me for turning my back on you."

Lu Youzhen sneered, "Since I have told you so much, I will definitely keep my promise. Only if we cooperate happily can we get the benefits. If one of us turns his face against the other, we will never succeed."

"You can sign a contract if you want," Lu Youzhen said, "as long as you do your best."

Lu Youzhen also knew that this would give Shen Xiagang a huge handle in his hands.
