Chapter 457 How Heartless!



"Only if you make a scene will the Huo family's partners feel at ease after seeing your attitude."

"Once the partners soften their stance, the Huo family's stock price won't fall so quickly. At that time, you will be a great contributor to the Huo family."

Yun Wanqing remained skeptical of his words.

However, the prospect of becoming a major contributor to the Huo family was extremely tempting for her.

The Huo family relies on her, which is why she has a good life.

"But what if they won't let me in if I barge into the Lin family's house alone?" She thought of another possibility. "Then a butler will stop me."

"I'll give you as many people as you want," Huo Beichen said.

Yun Wanqing's eyes lit up; then this matter would be much easier to handle.

Soon, Yun Wanqing, along with the dozen or so people Huo Beichen had assigned to her, headed towards the Lin family in a grand procession.

Lin Zhibai informed his mother in advance about his plan to bring down the Huo family.

Upon hearing from the housekeeper that Yun Wanqing had brought people over to meet them, Lin's mother immediately refused.

"Lock the gate and don't let her in," she instructed the housekeeper.

But she was still worried, so she went to a higher terrace in the garden and looked towards the door.

She indeed spotted Yun Wanqing and a dozen or so other figures.

But the garden gate was over 7 meters high, so they hesitated for a moment and then dispersed.

Lin's mother breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on a chair on the terrace, and instructed the nanny to prepare a cup of coffee for her.

A moment later, a pair of hands brought over a cup of coffee. "Auntie, please enjoy."

That sound!

So familiar!

Lin's mother turned her head in surprise and saw that the person who brought the coffee was none other than Yun Wanqing!

There were more than a dozen men behind Yun Wanqing.

They have taken control of the nanny.

Lin's mother, having seen the world, quickly calmed down. "Yun Wanqing, how did you get in?"

Yun Wanqing smiled: "There's a hole in the backyard. I wonder who Auntie reserved it for?"

"Perhaps, it was all so that I could get in smoothly!"

Lin's mother was taken aback; there was indeed a hole in the corner of the backyard wall.

But that was something Lin Zhibai secretly dug up when he was a child, so he could sneak out to play.

But after Lin Zhibai grew up, she had the cave sealed off.

Why does it still exist now?!

"What do you want?" Lin's mother asked.

Yun Wanqing chuckled lightly: "Auntie, that's a heartless question! Just a few days ago, I was your prospective daughter-in-law, and today you've shut the door so tightly?"

Lin's mother knew that Yun Wanqing must be feeling bad after Lin Zhibai's move, and her situation in the Huo family would be very difficult.

Coming here to make a scene is just a way for them to find a way out.

Lin's mother softened her expression and said, "Yun Wanqing, Lin Zhibai is my son, I will definitely listen to him."

“When he said you were planning to get married, of course I treated you as my future daughter-in-law. Besides, I’ve been good to you, haven’t I?”

"Now that Zhibai says your engagement is off, I have no reason to treat you the same way as before."

"How about this," Lin's mother thought for a moment, "consider the jewelry and luxury goods I gave you before as gifts. As for business matters, I will also speak with Zhibai to make sure the Huo family is not embarrassed too much."

Yun Wanqing sneered: "So, the Lin family is trying to bribe their way out of trouble?"

Lin's mother shook her head: "That's not what I meant. I just want to solve the problem."

“If you want to solve the problem, you have to make me feel better.” After saying that, Yun Wanqing threw a dagger on the table with a clatter.

Lin's mother's gaze trembled slightly.

...

Huo Beichen sat down, looking at the old man opposite him with a half-smile.

He is the largest shareholder of the Huo Group, holding more shares than Huo Beichen's father.

Huo Beichen already owns a significant number of Huo Group shares, but to completely take control of the Huo Group, he must acquire the shares held by the other party.

"Young Master, please don't make things difficult for me." The old man waved his hand. "The shares I have are worthless now. I'm just relying on them to support me in my old age. You can't take my coffin lid too."

Huo Beichen said calmly, "Sell the shares to me, take a sum of money and retire abroad. Isn't that quite pleasant?"

"Moreover, Huo's stock price has been falling. When it really falls to the bottom, the shares you hold will be worthless."

The old man looked troubled.

At that moment, his assistant walked in and whispered a few words in his ear.

His troubled expression immediately turned to joy. "Young Master, let's leave it at that. Continuing to talk about it will only hurt our relationship."

After saying that, he got up to leave.

Huo Beichen smiled: "Yun Wanqing took people to the Lin family, is that right?"

The old man was stunned. This was a message his assistant had just given him. How did Huo Beichen know about it too?

Huo Beichen continued, "Uncle, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea first, and wait for the results? If Yun Wanqing really makes some progress, it's not too late for you to leave."

The old man was puzzled. Logically speaking, if Yun Wanqing brought people to the Lin family to cause trouble, the Lin family should at least give an explanation.

There is hope that the Huo family can pick up the pieces of this mess they are currently in.

Huo Beichen should be angry and flustered.

How could he remain so calm and composed, as if he had everything under control?

If he's not just bluffing, then there's something more to this than meets the eye!

Thinking about how Huo Beichen had been openly and secretly opposing his father all these years, the old man couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

He suddenly had a feeling.

The time has come for this father and son to have a showdown!

...

Yun Wanqing had already "invited" Lin's mother into the living room.

A dozen or so people formed a human wall, completely "protecting" Lin's mother.

"Auntie, don't hesitate any longer, just sign this."

Yun Wanqing presented a gift agreement to Lin's mother, the gist of which was that Lin's mother agreed to compensate Yun Wanqing because Lin Zhibai unilaterally canceled the engagement.

Money, houses, business contracts—all added up, the total amount exceeds ten figures.

How could Lin's mother possibly sign it!

The situation is at a stalemate!

Yun Wanqing glanced at her watch; she had been waiting for an hour, and she felt that her good temper had reached its limit.

"Auntie, I really didn't want to treat you like this, but you forced me to."

She sighed with regret, but in reality, she cast a sinister glare at one of her assistants.

The assistant nodded and approached Lin's mother with two other people.

Lin's mother's face suddenly darkened with anger: "Yun Wanqing, I've been giving you face, don't be shameless!"

"Open your eyes and look carefully, this is the Lin family!" Only then did she display the true authority of the Lin family matriarch.

Yun Wanqing's gaze was somewhat timid.

But the thought that once she signed the agreement, she could live the life of a true socialite made her steel her heart and decide to take the risk.

At her signal, two assistants grabbed Lin's mother's hands, while another slipped a pen into her hand.

They wanted to hold Lin's mother's hand and have her sign the document.

Then he grabbed her hand and made her sign the document.

That settles the matter.
