After signing the contract, Lin Fan and Ye Yuyan left.
Inside the private room, the crystal chandelier dazzled.
Standing there stunned, Lin Yaozu, who had been completely invisible, suddenly slammed his hand on the table, making the teacups jump.
"Damn Lin Fan! How dare he embarrass me in public!"
Lin Yaozu gritted his teeth.
Su Qing sat opposite him, her exquisite makeup unable to conceal the anxiety between her brows.
She gently advised:
"Yaozu, don't be angry. It's not worth ruining your health. The most important thing now is to think about how to deal with this."
How should we respond?
Lin Yaozu suddenly raised his voice and roared at the top of his lungs.
"That little brat has grown wings and dares to go against me! I'll make him pay the price!"
He grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground.
With a sharp "crack," the teacup shattered into pieces, spilling tea all over the floor.
Su Qing was startled and quickly got up to avoid being cut by the shards.
"Yaozu, calm down! Now is not the time to lose your temper!" she said urgently.
"If your aunt and uncle find out you lost such a big order, they'll definitely scold you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaozu instantly sobered up a bit.
He slumped back into his chair.
"Yes, we can't let Mom and Dad know! If they find out I lost to Lin Fan, what kind of status will I have at home?"
Lin Yaozu was well aware that although his parents favored him, they valued the interests of the Lin Group even more.
If he messes up this time, his parents will be extremely disappointed in him.
At that point, let alone fighting for the family fortune, they probably won't even be able to keep their current lifestyle.
Su Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw that he had calmed down.
She walked to Lin Yaozu's side, gently patted his back, and comforted him:
"Yaozu, don't worry, we still have a chance."
"As long as we go back and explain things properly to our aunt and uncle, putting all the blame on Lin Fan, they will definitely believe us."
Lin Yaozu raised his head, a sinister glint in his eyes: "You mean..."
Su Qing leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"We told them that Lin Fan harbored resentment, deliberately stole the Lin family's cooperation, and publicly humiliated us."
Your aunt and uncle love you the most, they'll definitely be on your side.
Lin Yaozu's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, let's do it this way! As long as Mom and Dad believe in me, I still have a chance to turn things around!"
He grabbed Su Qing's hand and said fiercely:
"Lin Fan, you just wait! I'll make you regret this!"
The Lin family villa was brightly lit.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin sat on the sofa in the living room, their faces ashen, the atmosphere oppressive and suffocating.
Lin Yaozu and Su Qing stood in front of them, heads bowed, looking as if they had done something wrong.
"Dad, Mom, you have to believe me! This time it really wasn't my fault!"
Lin Yaozu broke the silence first, kneeling down with a thud and saying through tears:
"It's all because of that unfilial son, Lin Fan! He held a grudge and deliberately stole our cooperation!"
Seeing this, Lin's mother felt heartbroken and quickly went to help him up.
"Yaozu, what are you doing? Get up, the ground is cold!"
Lin's father snorted coldly and asked sternly, "What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"
Lin Yaozu wiped away his tears and embellished the story of what happened at Wangjiang Tower.
Of course, he concealed the fact that he had spoken rudely and insulted women, and shifted all the blame onto Lin Fan.
"Dad, Mom, you have no idea how arrogant Lin Fan was at the banquet!"
He thinks he's so capable that he doesn't respect us at all!
Lin Yaozu said indignantly, "He spoke ill of the Lin family in front of so many people, and deliberately praised Qihang while belittling us! He just wanted to get revenge on us and bring down the Lin family!"
Su Qing chimed in, "Yes, Uncle and Aunt, Lin Fan has really gone too far! He not only stole our cooperation, but also publicly humiliated Yao Zu, saying... saying..."
She hesitated, looking as if she wanted to say something but couldn't, as if she found it difficult to speak.
Lin's mother became anxious: "What did he say about Yaozu? Tell me!"
Su Qing gritted her teeth, as if she had made a great decision, before saying, "He said Yaozu... he said Yaozu is a good-for-nothing and is not qualified to manage the Lin family at all!"
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Lin were furious.
"This unfilial son! He's really gone too far!" Lin's father slammed his fist on the table and roared.
"I've wasted my time raising him! If I had known he was such an ingrate, I should have just abandoned him in an orphanage and left him to fend for himself!"
Lin's mother was trembling with anger: "This is too much! Absolutely too much! Yaozu is his own brother, how could he say such a thing to him?"
She turned to Lin Yaozu and said, "Yaozu, don't worry, Mom will definitely stand up for you! This family is not for Lin Fan to run wild!"
Seeing this, Lin Yaozu was secretly delighted, but on the surface he still pretended to be aggrieved.
"Dad, Mom, I'm so sad... I've always treated Lin Fan like an older brother, so why did he do this to me?"
Su Qing also wiped away her tears.
"Yes, Uncle and Aunt, you must stand up for us... We don't mind suffering a little injustice, but we can't let Lin Fan ruin the Lin family..."
The more Lin's father listened, the angrier he became. He picked up his phone and dialed Lin Fan's number.
The phone rang several times before it was answered.
"Lin Fan, get back here right now!" Lin's father roared into the phone.
"Do you even respect me as your father? How dare you steal your brother's business and humiliate him in public! Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
On the other end of the phone, Lin Fan's voice was calm and indifferent.
“Dad, I didn’t steal his cooperation. It was Ocean Group that chose Qihang. In business competition, it’s all about strength.”
"Each relying on their own strength? You're talking nonsense!" Lin's father was furious.
"You're just holding a grudge and deliberately trying to get revenge on us!"
Don't forget who raised you!
Who funded your education and made you who you are today? Is this how you repay us?
Lin Fan was silent for a moment, then said calmly:
"Dad, I admit that you raised me and I am grateful to you."
However, this does not mean I can be manipulated by you, nor does it mean I will sacrifice my career to benefit Lin Yaozu.
"You...you unfilial son!"
Lin's father was so angry he almost fainted.
"I'm telling you, you'd better come back right now and apologize to Yaozu! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Lin Fan's voice remained calm.
“I have no connection with the Lin family anymore, and I don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore.”
"What...what did you say?"
At this moment, Lin Fan couldn't help but sneer inwardly. It was this family who had driven him away a few days ago.
Now, it's the same thing again!
At that moment, Mr. Lin on the other end of the phone could hardly believe his ears.
Say it again!
"There is no connection between us anymore."
Lin Fan repeated himself, his tone resolute, "From now on, we'll go our separate ways, and have nothing to do with each other."
