"Dad, what are you doing!"
"Silly girl, you don't understand! If you don't fight for it now, you'll have nothing in the future! The status you want has to be earned through struggle! The more docile you are, the less he will pay attention to you."
"Dad, I'm with him..."
"Hey, this guy's great in every way, except he's such a womanizer! He's got so many women around him! I'm so rich, I don't have that many women! And they're all so beautiful! Who's this Su Yueyao she's talking about? Is she one of his concubines?"
“Dad, that’s his friend.”
"Listen to my girl, if you really like him, you should win him over as soon as possible! That girl from the Lin family is still his nominal fiancée, and I don't want my girl to suffer as a concubine in the future!"
"But......"
"Don't worry! I'll handle this! You just need to do as I say! Dad has a trump card; Xu Yifeng will definitely agree to our request!"
"Oh well."
Ning Hanshuang hesitated for a moment, but still nodded in agreement. After thinking it over, she felt that Ning Zhenhua was right.
After all, once she went to the Long Mansion, she would have plenty of opportunities to compete. The person by Xu Xiwang's side was Ning Hanshuang, not Lin Qingxue.
She has a greater advantage than Lin Qingxue, so why should Lin Qingxue get there first?
...
Therefore, Xu hoped to 'escape and be unaware'.
At Ning Zhenhua's repeated requests, Xu Yifeng made the decision for him.
I made an appointment with the Lin family patriarch, Lin Yunshan, and Lin Qingxue.
The affair between Lin Qingxue and Xu Xiwang has become common knowledge throughout the capital.
Although Old Master Lin had always looked down on Xu Xiwang before, upon hearing that Xu Xiwang was now a completely different person and had become the strongest prodigy in the Xu family, and had even entered the Long Mansion, Lin Yunshan's attitude changed completely, and he became extremely supportive of the betrothal between the two children.
After all, Lin Yunshan was a powerful and ruthless figure.
"Mr. Lin, you've arrived! Please come in!"
As soon as Lin Yunshan appeared, Xu Yifeng stood up, warmly greeted him, and led Lin Yunshan into the hall.
Lin Qingxue, dressed in a moon-white long dress, followed behind Lin Yunshan. She looked delicate and pretty, like a girl next door.
Lin Yunshan felt a sense of satisfaction watching Xu Yifeng's performance.
It seems the Xu family is quite satisfied with their granddaughter; his years of hard work have not been in vain!
The marriage between the Lin family and the Xu family is entirely beneficial to the Lin family.
After all, the Lin family is a second-rate family, while the Xu family is one of the four major families. Moreover, the Xu family has many powerful figures and its foundation is something that the Lin family cannot compare to.
"Mr. Lin, let me introduce you. This is Ning Zhenhua of the Ning Group, and this is his daughter, Ning Hanshuang."
Xu Yifeng introduced the two men, and then introduced Lin Yunshan to them, "This is the head of the Lin family, Old Master Lin Yunshan!"
Lin Yunshan's gaze swept over the two men, lingering on Ning Zhenhua for a few seconds. "You're Ning Zhenhua?"
Ning Zhenhua nodded. "Exactly!"
Lin Yunshan laughed and said, "I've heard of you before, it's a pleasure to meet you." "Old Master Lin is too kind," he replied. "The prestige of the Lin family head is something we ordinary people can never hope to match. When Old Master Lin was in such a high position, giving speeches on television as an official representative, I was just a young upstart."
"Haha, not at all, you flatter me. Patriarch Ning is a renowned business elite with immense wealth. I heard he's pledged allegiance to my grandson-in-law, Xu Xiwang. Ah, I hope Patriarch Ning will help that kid a lot in the future."
After their exchange, the two old foxes grew much closer.
Xu Yifeng sat in the head seat, watching the two of them engage in their feigned politeness.
His lips twitched slightly as he drank his tea.
Those two cunning old foxes!
"Mr. Lin, you flatter me. Xu Xiwang is my son-in-law; how could I not help him? I will certainly follow his advice without question!"
The temperature in the entire Xu family hall plummeted as soon as Ning Zhenhua said this!
Xu Yifeng's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the cup.
He glared at Ning Zhenhua and thought to himself: Do you have to be so direct? If this old guy gets angry, he might just tear down my Xu family's reception room!
Ning Zhenhua pretended not to know anything, as if he hadn't sensed the unusual atmosphere around him, and continued to look at Lin Yunshan with a friendly expression.
Xu Yifeng exclaimed in admiration, "As expected of a business tycoon, his shrewdness and refinement are truly extraordinary."
"Patriarch Ning, what do you mean by that? Xu Xiwang is the grandson-in-law of my Lin family, and he's betrothed to my Qingxue since childhood!"
As Lin Yunshan spoke, his gaze fell upon Xu Yifeng, who was silently sipping tea to the side. His tone was icy, and his eyes were sharp as knives. "Third Master Xu, am we, the Lin family, wrong?"
Xu Yifeng's temple throbbed. "Hey old man, you two can talk all you want, why are you dragging me into this!"
He took a deep breath and smiled, "Old Lin is right. I hope we are indeed engaged since childhood, but we are not married yet, so Qingxue is not yet the young mistress of the Xu family."
Lin Yunshan's face turned green after hearing this.
"Old Master Lin hopes that my daughter Ning Hanshuang and I have already consummated our marriage."
"Pfft!~"
Xu Yifeng could no longer remain calm, and he spat out a mouthful of tea onto Lin Yunshan opposite him.
Lin Yunshan's face darkened. He, the dignified head of the family, was being treated like this by Xu Yifeng!
"You! You've gone too far!"
Upon seeing this, Xu Yifeng quickly wiped the water stains off his clothes.
"Mr. Lin, please calm down! Please calm down! I didn't mean to, the tea was a little hot."
Xu Yifeng apologized with a smile.
"What's going on! Xu Xiwang has been pursuing my granddaughter for so long, how could he be so shameless as to have consummated his marriage with another woman! Xu Yifeng, you owe me an explanation!"
Lin Yunshan's aura was chilling, his voice was deep, and his cloudy eyes revealed anger.
With a single slap, he smashed the table next to him to pieces, and the items on the table instantly turned into dust and scattered everywhere!
Holy crap!
A million alpacas galloped through Xu Yifeng's mind.
That old bastard!
You two families can fight over the position of Hope's fiancée all you want, I won't say anything!
What did my table ever do to you?!
This is an old object that is over two hundred years old, and I have always cherished it like a treasure!
That old bastard is bullying us too much!
Xu Yifeng gritted his teeth, but due to Lin Yunshan's status, he could only swallow his anger.
I hope you don't like this scheming bitch in your family right now!
If it weren't for the fact that this marriage was arranged by my elder brother, I would be the first to disagree if this woman wanted to enter the Xu family!
But unfortunately, with his elder brother not home, no one dared to back out of the marriage proposal!
"Congratulations, Elder Lin! It seems your cultivation has improved even further! A truly commendable achievement!"
"Xu Yifeng, stop talking nonsense! Give me an explanation right now!"
"I......"
Xu Yifeng was about to explain when Lin Qingxue interrupted him.
