Back in Jiangcheng, Lin Xiao told his father, Feng Bairan, that he could spend half a day at the company every day to familiarize himself with the business, and the rest of the time he could paint or do other things he liked.
Feng Bairan was in the prime of his life and had no intention of stepping down from his position as head of the Feng family immediately, so he did not object to his eldest son's statement.
"Ah Xiao, I envy you so much, you only have to work half a day," Feng Bairan said with a smile.
Lin Xiao: "I allow my dad to envy me. This is indeed an ideal life. It's all because of my dad's love for me that I can be myself."
So Lin Xiao began working only half a day each day.
Feng Qi rented a house off-campus and rarely went home, so the two rarely ran into each other, and Lin Xiao never took the initiative to contact him.
Lin Xiao's paintings were exhibited at the Time Gallery, and seven women, including Wei Ruolan, bought all of their own paintings at high prices, making Lin Xiao earn five million in one go.
The deposit balance has reached forty million.
Lin Xiao did not forget his promise and invited his three roommates from dormitory 808 to visit his art exhibition, which earned him a lot of envy and a little jealousy.
On New Year's Day, the Bai family held a grand birthday banquet for Bai Youyou.
All the celebrities of Jiangcheng have come.
Old Man Bai found Lin Xiao and looked him over carefully. "Young man, you are indeed handsome and of good character. My daughter is of legal marriage age, so I'm giving her to you. What do you say?"
At this moment, the fathers or mothers of the other six people also gathered around, saying that they wanted to give their daughters to Lin Xiao and asking him if he would be willing.
Lin Xiao was overwhelmed by his parents' enthusiasm and could only awkwardly laugh and say, "Let me think about it. I'll give you an answer in three days, okay?"
After saying that, he slipped away.
Feng Qi's eyes reddened with jealousy. He blocked Lin Xiao's retreating figure and questioned him, "You're just a substitute for me. How dare you steal their love from me?"
Lin Xiao looked at Feng Qi and said with a faint smile, "Brother, you've got it backwards, haven't you?"
"You're my substitute. You've taken my place and enjoyed so many good years without me causing you any trouble. You should keep a low profile, read more books, and stop asking such stupid questions!"
Feng Qi was furious. "You...you've gone too far! I'm going to tell Mom and Dad! I'll tell them you bullied me!"
Lin Xiao waved his hand dismissively and walked away, saying, "Go ahead."
Anyway, he's the eldest son of the Feng family, what's there for him to be afraid of?
However, choosing who to marry is indeed a difficult question.
The stunningly beautiful Wei Ruolan?
The noble and elegant Ji Ran?
Chu Yingying, a cold and alluring beauty?
Is Bai Youyou aloof and adorably naive girl?
The gentle yet aloof Meng Fanxue?
Song Qingliu, who can be both salty and sweet?
The cool and beautiful You Wanjun?
Each of them has a different personality, but when they are with him, they all act like gentle and charming little women.
On his birthday, he was in a small county in the west. Somehow, the seven of them got the news about him and spent a lot of money to have someone send him gifts.
He was indeed moved that day.
It's really hard to choose.
Lin Xiao felt like he was suffering from decision paralysis.
Feng Bairan and Li Yaru were overjoyed to learn that their son had been chosen by one of the seven most powerful families in Jiangcheng.
Li Yaru had a heart-to-heart talk with her son and suggested, "Ah Xiao, if you don't know who to choose, why don't you invite them out, meet them, and have a chat?"
Lin Xiao thought to himself, "No need, we're already very familiar with each other."
"Mom, don't you think Professor Ji Ran is a bit too old?"
Li Yaru was taken aback, then smiled and said, "It is indeed a bit big. But if you really like it, Mom will talk to your dad about it."
Lin Xiao felt a warmth in his heart, reached out and hugged his mother, and said gently, "Thank you, Mom. I...love you."
Li Yaru's heart melted completely. She hugged her son, tears welling in her eyes, and smiled, "You're welcome. Baby, Mommy loves you too."
