Chapter 176 The Unstoppable Lin Younan
Ye Qingning got out of the car. Not far away, two groups of people were already lined up at the entrance of the house, seemingly waiting for Ye Qingning's inspection.
Lin Feiyan's wheelchair moved beside her, and he said softly, "The house is very large, so there are quite a few more servants. They were all personally selected by Chen Chu, so there won't be any problems."
"Aunt Qin and Xiao Cui..."
“They’re both here,” Lin Fei said. “Aunt Qin will still be in charge of our three meals a day, and Xiao Cui will still be in charge of taking care of your daily life.”
As the two approached the door, the two groups of people bowed at the butler's signal: "Good evening, sir and madam!"
The sounds were uniform, loud, and clear.
Ye Qingning looked up and saw at least twenty people, but apart from the housekeeper and driver, they were all women.
Butler Uncle Lin, who looked to be in his fifties, had a somewhat dignified air about him. He introduced the household servants to Ye Qingning in a formal manner before dismissing everyone.
Lin Fei said calmly, "The main house has three floors and the same structure as the Lin residence. Everyone else lives in the side houses and doesn't come here unless necessary. Essentially, this place is no different from the old Lin residence."
Ye Qingning nodded: "Mm."
Her gaze swept around, and only when she saw the familiar curtains, green plants, antique display shelves, floor mats, and other items did she finally feel a sense of home.
After Aunt Qin finished preparing two servings of noodles with soybean paste and called the two people to go to the restaurant for dinner, Ye Qingning's uneasy feelings gradually began to calm down.
...
The Lin Family Mansion.
Lin Younan finally received the report from the investigators, which showed that the groups behind the Lin Group that had been suppressing the Lin Group and directly causing the bankruptcy of Linxing Entertainment had some unusual connections.
Lin Younan had no choice but to believe that someone was targeting the Lin family.
Assistant Wang Miao called quickly and got straight to the point: "President Lin, I've long suspected that Lin Feiyan isn't the type to sit idly by. He's been quietly manipulating everything! His appearance in Nanshi this time has created a crisis for our company there. He must have been involved in the previous events involving Linxing Entertainment and the group!"
Lin Younan hated hearing others praise anything about Lin Feiyan in front of him.
He immediately became displeased: "At most, he's a cripple who knows a few business associates who can probably help him with some minor schemes. What kind of trouble can he possibly cause!"
“President Lin, don’t forget that he has been involved in company decision-making since he was a teenager. He has also contributed to many of the Lin Group’s current management policies and long-term decisions. We cannot underestimate such a person,” Wang Miao insisted.
"But after all these years of investigation, you still haven't found out anything about him, have you?" Lin Younan raised his hand and frowned. "Or can you tell me what other businesses he has besides Linqi Shopping Mall?"
Wang Miao paused for a moment: "Although we haven't found out yet, I know that he recently bought a house in Tianfu Villa. That house cost about 100 million yuan. If he only has Linqi Shopping Mall, he probably wouldn't be able to come up with that much money."
Lin Younan narrowed his eyes: "Tianfu Villa?"
He remembered that his father, Lin Yunshan, had visited the area some time ago, liked the quiet surroundings, and wanted to buy a house to live out his retirement years, but ultimately gave up because of the price.
I never expected Lin Feiyan to be willing to buy a house there.
"Are you sure you want to pay in full?"
“I’m sure.” Wang Miao said, “So, Chairman Lin, this person is really not simple, but… it’s very difficult to find information about him.”
Lin Younan pondered for a moment: "Then what's your plan?"
“We can start from within,” Wang Miao said in a low voice. “The Tianfu Villa is a large mansion, and his one or two servants in the past were definitely not enough. We can think of a way to address this.”
"Okay," Lin Younan said. "I'll leave this to you."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Younan stood by the window, lost in thought for a moment, a sharp glint in his eyes.
He quickly retrieved the relevant financial reports for Lynch Mall, organized them, printed a copy, and took it to his study.
He had already figured out how to seemingly casually link Lin Feiyan's purchase of the Tianfu Villa with the deficit of Linqi Shopping Mall.
He wants Lin Feiyan to be completely kicked out of all Lin Group companies!
In the study, Lin Yunshan was indeed still handling official business.
Lin Younan brought in a glass of warm milk and sat down opposite him: "Dad, drink your milk and go to bed early, don't overwork yourself."
In just half a month, Lin Yunshan looked much more tired. He took off his reading glasses and rubbed his temples, saying, "You're so considerate of my hard work."
"Dad," Lin Younan said sincerely, "It's my fault for not managing Lin Xing well, for not being wary of the ubiquitous competitors, which has led to so many crises for the Lin Group..."
"It's not your fault, I know you tried very hard."
Lin Yunshan smiled and said, "That's just how the business world has always been. It's a competition where one side rises and the other falls, and no one is always the winner."
Lin Younan sighed and hid the document behind his back. Lin Yunshan, who was drinking milk, saw this and asked, "What's that? Did something happen again?"
"It's alright, Dad, it's nothing, I'll handle it," Lin Younan said deliberately.
"Give it to me." Lin Yunshan held out his hand. "What else can't I bear?"
Lin Younan paused for a moment before handing the document to Lin Yunshan. After a quick glance, Lin Yunshan's expression grew increasingly grim.
Finally, he slammed the file on the table: "So, all these years, Lynch Mall's accounts have been in this chaotic state?"
Lin Younan nodded: "Since taking over, I have been investigating the reasons behind Lin Qi's continuous losses. I found that in addition to chaotic management, the main problem is financial issues... I believe that you are innocent, brother..."
Lin Yunshan sighed and patted his chest in frustration: "I only entrusted him with Linqi Shopping Mall, and he managed to mess it up like this!"
“Dad…” Lin Younan paused for a moment, then spoke with apparent difficulty, “Perhaps we’ve all overlooked my brother’s feelings. He’s married now, and his expenses are much higher. I also heard he bought a house in Tianfu Villa, so I suppose…”
"What?!" Lin Yunshan was furious: "Tianfu Villa?"
“Yes.” Lin Younan explained, “Dad, please don’t be angry. My older brother’s old house was indeed too small. After all, he’s already married…”
"Even if you're married, it's just the two of you living together! Why would you need such a big house!" Lin Yunshan waved his hand, and the glass of milk shattered on the ground. "His Tianfu Villa has caused Lin Qi to lose money for so many years! He..."
Lin Yunshan clutched his heart, his face growing increasingly grim.
Lin Younan rushed over and helped him sit down in a chair: "Dad, don't be angry, you can't get angry..."
Hearing the commotion, Zhou Yun'ai rushed in and, seeing Lin Yunshan's condition, immediately dialed 120.
...
Lin Residence, Tianfu Villa.
Before going to sleep, Ye Qingning heard noises coming from Lin Feiyan's room next door, and soon after, she heard the sound of the door opening. A moment later, there was a knock on her door.
She wrapped her pajamas tighter around herself and opened the door. Outside stood Lin Feiyan, fully dressed: "I'm going out for a bit. You stay home and get some sleep."
