This is the Lin family’s office building and also their luxurious villa.

Ground floor, reception hall.

Several members of the Lin family were waiting anxiously.

A middle-aged man in his forties with a dignified appearance frowned slightly, turned his head from time to time, and looked at the sky from the window sill on one side.

The sky was azure blue, with a few white clouds floating by from time to time, blocking the soft sunlight and forming a large shadow on the ground.

"Brother, are you hiding something from us?"

Opposite this middle-aged man was a man who looked somewhat similar to him but had a younger face. When he saw the middle-aged man in his forties looking up at the sky from time to time, he couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

As he spoke, everyone in the reception hall turned their heads and looked at the middle-aged man.

"Second brother, you think too much." The middle-aged man retracted his gaze and laughed.

This middle-aged man, named Lin Zaiyuan, is one of the senior members of the Lin family. He is also the second generation of the Lin family and the oldest of this generation. All his peers call him Big Brother when they see him.

Of course, how many levels of respect there are in this title is another matter.

"Zaiyuan, stop beating around the bush and just say what you want to say. Stop hiding it. Since the head of the family has called all of us high-level people here, he must have something to announce."

Seeing that Lin Zaiyuan's words were somewhat insincere, an old man with white beard suddenly glared and said dissatisfiedly.

"That's right, big brother. If you know, please tell us first so that we can make preparations for what happens next." Next to the second brother, a middle-aged man wearing small gold-rimmed glasses also frowned.

The person who spoke earlier was a member of the Lin family of the same generation as the old man, named Lin Haocang. The middle-aged man with small gold-rimmed glasses was named Lin Zaihan. Like Lin Tao's biological father Lin Xuan, he was also a direct descendant of Old Man Lin.

Lin Zaiyuan could have given Lin Haocang no face, but since Lin Zaihan had spoken, he immediately showed a casual smile: "Third brother, this is really not a big deal..."

"Brother, it's already this late, and you're still not willing to tell us?" Before he could finish his words, the second brother started shouting again.

This second brother, named Lin Zaihong, has a somewhat irritable temperament, but among the senior members of the Lin family, he is considered to be a relatively capable person, otherwise he would not appear here.

"Hehe~ Some people just like to flatter and curry favor with others. They no longer take people like us seriously." There was another old man next to Lin Haocang. After hearing what Lin Zaiyuan said, he couldn't help but clasped his hands in front of his chest and said a few sarcastic words.

Lin Zaiyuan's face darkened. The old man who spoke in a sarcastic tone was named Lin Haoqing. He was also a member of the same generation as Grandpa Lin. He was also capable of competing for the position of head of the family back then. Unfortunately, he was eliminated because he was unpopular.

Nowadays, this person's behavior is becoming more and more extreme. Even if he has become a high-level official, he is still unpopular.

However, what he said at this time aroused the other senior executives' hatred against Lin Zaiyuan.

Although the Lin family belong to the same powerful force, all the top leaders are not a monolithic group. After all, there are quite a few members of the Lin family, but only a few of them can become top leaders.

All the members of the Lin family were trying their best to squeeze in.

Mr. Lin has set a limit on the number of people in the upper echelons. If someone wants to enter, they have to leave. Therefore, Lin Zaiyuan was particularly dissatisfied with the anger that Lin Haoqing had aroused. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly, "Uncle San, what you said is a bit extreme. When my third brother asked me a question just now, I was about to speak."

Lin Jae-han, who was wearing small gold-rimmed glasses, raised his eyebrows.

"Third brother, do you remember Lin Xuan?" Lin Zaiyuan looked at Lin Zaihan with a smile.

In fact, as a member of the Lin family, Lin Xuan's real name is Lin Zaixuan. Unfortunately, due to an incident many years ago, the angry old man Lin removed the word "Zai" from his name, and it became Lin Xuan directly.

When Lin Xuan was mentioned at this moment, almost everyone present was stunned.

If the name Lin Xuan was mentioned a few years ago, even Lin Zaihan might not want to mention it. But now it is different. The seed left by Lin Xuan many years ago has now become an extraordinary figure.

Even Old Master Lin personally sent someone to bring back Lin Xuan, who was banished to a remote planet. He even declared in the Lin family that this seed of Lin Xuan would become the next head of the Lin family.

Although many people were dissatisfied with this, they did not dare to say anything more in the face of Lin Tao's series of performances.

"Could it be that the old man summoned us here because of the latest news about Lin Tao?" Lin Zaihan was surprised. For Lin Tao, the Lin family had almost exhausted all their resources in the past two years, trying to contact him, and even ordered Lin Xuan to stay near Mingyuan Star Region, just to win Lin Tao back to the Lin family.

If it weren't for Lin Tao's amazing abilities, the senior management of the Lin family would have been dissatisfied long ago.

Among the senior executives, almost everyone had similar ideas as him, except Lin Haoqing and Lin Haocang, who just looked at each other but did not speak.

"That's right, Lin Tao is coming." Lin Zaiyuan said softly, and then he raised his head and looked at the sky from the floor-to-ceiling window on one side.

It was he who reported the news about Lin Tao's situation on Gat Star to Mr. Lin, so he knew better than anyone else the reason why all the senior executives were gathered here.

"Lin Tao is coming?"

"Lin Tao has arrived at our Lin family's territory?"

“When did this happen?”

Wow! Lin Tao is coming. Just a simple sentence made the Lin family's top leaders feel like a storm in their hearts, and they talked a lot.

Hearing the noisy sound, Lin Haoqing narrowed his eyes, while Lin Haocang frowned slightly. However, after a moment, Lin Haocang's brows relaxed again: "Is Lin Tao coming? This is good news."

After Lin Tao snatched Mingyuan Star from the Liu family, he relied on his own abilities to destroy the joint fleet led by the Liu family, shocking the Interstellar Federation and becoming a hot commodity in the eyes of all major forces.

Apart from anything else, Lin Haocang had no objection to Grandpa Lin's desire to make Lin Tao the successor to the family head. He even supported it wholeheartedly. After all, in Grandpa Lin's generation, he had never thought of seizing the position of family head.

For him, the position of the head of the family can only be filled by someone who is popular among the people and can lead the family to a higher level.

Lin Tao does have this ability.

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.

After Lin Zaiyuan spoke out his thoughts, he kept looking at the sky. As soon as the black shadow appeared, it immediately fell into his eyes: "Are you back?"

Not only him, but also Lin Haoqing, after hearing the news that Lin Tao was coming, although he did not turn his head, his eyes were still glancing at the sky. When he saw the black shadow, his face darkened.

The black shadow grew bigger and bigger, and finally took the shape of an aerospace spacecraft.

I don't know which senior executive spoke first, but everyone's attention was immediately drawn to the window.

Woo woo woo!

In front of the 300-story building, there was a large open space. Soon, the aerospace spacecraft landed.

The hatch opened, and the first person to walk out was the old butler. Everyone could see his face as they left.

"It's Butler Zhong, Mr. Lin is back."

"Where's Lin Tao? Did Lin Tao come back with us?"

Everyone stretched their necks and focused their eyes, staring at the hatch of the aerospace spacecraft.

It’s not that they didn’t want to go and greet him, but Mr. Lin told them to stay here. Otherwise, they would have already rushed to the open space and seen with their own eyes what Lin Tao looked like.

After the old butler came out, it was Grandpa Lin who came out next. There was also a young man beside him. Needless to say, the person who could have Grandpa Lin accompany him was most likely Lin Tao.

"Is he the offspring left by Lin Xuan?" Lin Haoqing's eyes flashed with a sharp light and fell on Lin Tao.

"Lin Tao, this is the capital planet of our Lin family." Old Master Lin personally introduced Lin Tao.

The so-called capital star is the capital star of the powerful forces, but due to the rules of the Interstellar Federation, they cannot name it the capital star and can only use the title of the capital star.

In other words, this is the Lin family's base camp.

"The Lin family's capital star?" Lin Tao smiled slightly and didn't say much. He turned around and saw Master Gu Lei, Liu Xueying, Yang Yanzong and others had caught up, then he followed in the footsteps of Grandpa Lin.

"Master Gu Lei, I'm going to take Lin Tao to meet our Lin family. You guys go with Butler Zhong first. He will help you find a good hotel." After a pause, Mr. Lin turned around and said, "By the way, I'll have someone prepare a big party tonight to welcome you. If you don't mind..."

"No need, we don't like crowds." Before Master Gu Lei could speak, Liu Xueying said with a face as cold as an iceberg. At this point, she stared at Lin Tao fiercely and said, "Master Lin is really amazing. He arranged everything for Lin Tao directly."

Mr. Lin was not embarrassed at all. He raised his hand and patted his forehead, then laughed: "Really? I forgot to ask Lin Tao for his opinion. Lin Tao, do you want to go with me to meet the Lin family?"

Immediately, the eyes of Gu Lei Master Liu Xueying, Yang Yanzong and others all fell on Lin Tao.

Lin Tao smiled slightly: "No problem."

Liu Xueying's expression changed instantly. Yang Yanzong didn't say anything, but his expression was not very good either. His disciples all looked sullen.

Sensing the unusual atmosphere, Master Gu Lei's eyes flickered a few times, and he immediately stood up and said, "Butler Zhong, we are new here, can you arrange a bigger house for us? Oh, we don't want to stay in a restaurant or hotel, that would be very uncomfortable. If there is a small house..."

"Haha~" Butler Zhong laughed: "It just so happens that there are a few empty villas nearby. I don't know if they suit your taste. How about I take you there to have a look?"

"A villa? That's not bad either." Master Gu Lei was very satisfied with Butler Zhong's arrangement. He turned around and said, "Master Lin, let's go there first."

"It's good that Master Gu Lei is satisfied." Old Master Lin smiled and said, "Butler Zhong, after Master Gu Lei and his men settle down, remember to arrange for some servants to go over."

"Master, I will arrange it." Butler Zhong bowed respectfully.
