Chapter 172 Apology



For some reason, Mu Chuan directly rejected Lin Qingtong's suggestion and was in a state of frustration.

"Ms. Lin, I won't cooperate with you to avoid implicating you. Your company must be newly established."

Lin Qingtong was stunned for a moment, not expecting Mu Chuan to refuse her suggestion, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"Don't worry, our company has absolute financial backing. Do you know Master Shen Jiu of the Shen family?"

At this point, it's normal for Lin Qingtong to use Shen Tinghe's name to discuss business.

Mu Chuan was slightly surprised and couldn't help but confirm with Lin Qingtong again.

"You mean Shen Tinghe?"

Lin Qingtong nodded, smiled faintly, and continued to explain.

He is my boyfriend.

Upon hearing this, Mu Chuan's eyes suddenly lit up, even though he had been hesitant.

Are you telling the truth?

Upon hearing this, Reco panicked.

If Mu Chuan were to get close to the Shen family, he would become a laughing stock, so he hurriedly tried to stop him.

"Miss Lin, the Shen family's name is not something you can use to negotiate business. You'd better not lie."

“I know the Shen family, and I’ve been to their house several times, but I’ve never seen you before.”

Lin Qingtong glanced at Lei Ke indifferently, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"Just because you haven't met me doesn't mean anything. Why don't you go and check it out now, or ask someone in the Shen family you know?"

Lei Ke looked Lin Qingtong up and down. Although she was beautiful, she was dressed in a low-key manner and was a complete stranger. He had never seen her in the Shen family before.

Although he was somewhat uneasy, he simply refused to admit that Lin Qingtong was a formidable figure.

It was as if doing so would belittle him.

“Go ahead and ask. Do you think I’m afraid of you? I’ve seen plenty of people like you who brag all the time.”

He took out his phone and made a call, his attitude instantly becoming obsequious.

"Young Master Shen, I have a fake here who claims to be the girlfriend of Ninth Master Shen. It's obviously a fake."

The person on the other end of the phone simply asked, "Is she good-looking?"

Reco hurriedly answered, as if trying to prove something.

"She's not good-looking at all."

The man then sneered and said, "It's ridiculous that there are even people pretending to be my uncle's girlfriend in this world. I'm coming over now."

After hanging up the phone, Lei Ke looked at Lin Qingtong with an arrogant air.

“Young Master Shen will be here soon. He will definitely expose your true colors then, so don’t kneel down and beg for mercy.”

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

If Lin Qingtong is unwilling to cooperate with him, then he can forget about successfully cooperating with Mu Chuan.

Lin Qingtong didn't care about his words, and just smiled and asked Mu Chuan beside her.

Do you believe me?

Mu Chuan hurriedly replied, "Of course I believe you, after all, you just believed me too."

Lin Qingtong smiled and said, "Since you trust me so much, I can't let you down."

“I have decided to invest an additional 100 million yuan. I will provide the venue and experimental equipment. If you can achieve significant results, the company will also give you 5% of the shares, which can be accumulated.”

This statement carries great weight; an ordinary person might never achieve significant success in their lifetime.

But Mu Chuan is different; he's a genius.

So Mu Chuan readily agreed.

Seeing that Mu Chuan and Lin Qingtong had reached an agreement, Lei Ke was furious and kept shouting from the side.

"Mu Chuan is a simple-minded person. Don't even think about lying to him. How could someone like you possibly come up with a hundred million?"

Lin Qingtong's gaze turned cold. The shares left by her grandfather were worth three or four hundred million yuan back then, so one hundred million yuan was no problem for her.

Moreover, after Shen Tinghe got together with her, he gave her a lot of money. She hadn't calculated it exactly, but it was at least a hundred million.

Although she didn't say she wanted it at the time, Shen Tinghe insisted, saying it was some kind of pocket money.

Lin Qingtong crossed her arms and quietly watched Lei Ke in front of her, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips as she watched his clown-like performance.

"Didn't you say you had someone verify my identity? Why hasn't that person arrived yet?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the roar of luxury cars came from outside the floor-to-ceiling window next to her.

Lin Qingtong looked in that direction and saw a figure step out of a sports car and stride into the venue.

Lin Qingtong couldn't help but smile when she saw the man's face.

Reco rushed forward, eager to complain.

“Young Master Shen, look, this is the person. She’s actually impersonating Master Shen’s girlfriend and has the audacity to say that she can come up with hundreds of millions in investment.”

Having finally regained some self-respect from Lei Ke's respectful treatment, Shen Yibo immediately adopted the demeanor of the Shen family.

"Let me see who it is, daring to impersonate me..."

Reco moved aside, and a stunningly beautiful and aloof face gradually came into view.

Shen Yibo's smug expression froze on the spot, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Lei Ke, thinking that Shen Yibo was about to teach Lin Qingtong a lesson with a cold face, immediately started to arrogantly taunt Lin Qingtong.

"Young Master Shen is already here, are you still pretending? Hurry up and apologize to us."

"You're just a fake, you'll be... sooner or later..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Yibo slapped him on the back of the head.

"Who gave you the right to talk like that?"

Lei Ke froze for a moment, covered his head, and looked at Shen Yibo in disbelief.

"If it's not Young Master Shen, why did you suddenly hit me? He's clearly the imposter."

He still pointed in Lin Qingtong's direction, which made Chen Yibo so angry that he kicked her, and he could hardly maintain his expression.

"What do you mean 'she'? This is my future aunt, Master Shen's girlfriend."

"You're blind as a bat, how dare you treat my noble aunt like this? You're asking for death."

Shen Yibo secretly observed Lin Qingtong out of the corner of his eye, actually thinking to himself.

This was a good opportunity for him to curry favor with Lin Qingtong. He knew that his father was about to welcome a new son, which meant that half of his family property would be divided up.

There weren't many to begin with.

If I don't find another way out, I'll probably be tricked to death at home by Master Shen sooner or later.

Shen Yibo looked at Lin Qingtong with a fawning expression, rubbing his hands together in apology.

"Auntie, I'm so sorry. I made you laugh at me. I made a mistake in choosing friends. I promise I won't associate with him again when I get back."

I apologize to you here.

Lin Qingtong quietly gazed at the obsequious Shen Yibo before her, raising an eyebrow as she thought to herself.

This person is probably up to something, but so far it doesn't seem to have affected me.

So Lin Qingtong didn't pay any attention and just waved her hand dismissively.

"It's alright. The person you should apologize to isn't me. It should be Lei Ke who apologizes to Mu Chuan, since he plagiarized something."
