Chapter 73 Mr. Gu sold the game and gave me 5 million
An Yu, who was eating hotpot next to her, asked the waiter to bring some fruit, and then slurped the noodles. She didn't hear a word Lin Shu said on the phone.
Lin Shu chatted with Sheng Zhaoting for a while and then hung up the phone. An Yu was still busy eating.
"I've recently carefully examined two projects that should be profitable. I'll draw up a detailed plan for you when the time comes. Please recommend it to Mr. Gu."
Lin Shu looked at An Yu. Although Gu Fujing asked her to be a mouthpiece, she also understood that she had indeed used Feiyuan Technology to hype up the game.
To be honest, Wen Xin had bad intentions. If she wasn't so despicable, Feiyuan Technology, Zhou Group and Yingtian Group would all make money.
They initiated the self-destruct program themselves, so it’s not her fault.
Speaking from a business perspective, if Lin Shu hadn't been a bit cunning, how could Zhou Yanli have been able to sit firmly in her current position?
An Yu took a sip of the soup and was about to mix it with her rice when she heard Lin Shu's words and exclaimed, "Gu Fujing treated you like that, and you were still planning to help him. I thought you would resign."
Lin Shu didn't intend to hide it from An Yu: "He sold the game and gave me five million."
After eating hot pot, An Yu got drunk.
She stepped out with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and Lin Shu almost couldn't hold her.
Later, Yu Yu helped her get into the car.
An Yu sat in the back seat and sang all the way, as happy as if the five million was given to her.
Lin Shu looked at this silly girl who was drunk and laughing foolishly, and felt inexplicably warm in his heart.
Yu Yu drove An Yu home, and Lin Shu felt relieved only after she entered the house.
When he returned to the Lin family, Lin Shu actually saw Jiang Shang's car in the yard. He didn't know what had brought him back.
Jiang Shang was waiting for her at home, but he didn't bring Yuan Yuan with him.
"Lin Shu, Dad bought a set of jade jewelry. Take a look and see if you like it."
He brought over an exquisite box and personally handed it to Lin Shu.
Lin Shu took a look and didn't move.
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
"Dad, is there something wrong?"
Seeing that Lin Shu didn't take it, Jiang Shang placed the jadeite on the coffee table in front of the sofa.
"Your mother loved these things when she was alive, so I bought them when I saw them. You can decide what to do with them."
Lin Shu opened it and found the jade was crystal clear and quite expensive.
If he guessed correctly, Lin Shu thought Jiang Shang was probably doing this for the same reason.
"Since it's for Mom, let me thank Dad on her behalf."
Yuan Yuan has received a lot of things from Jiang Shang, so it is her duty to accept whatever Jiang Shang gives her now.
Jiang Shang, to Lin Shu's surprise, didn't make any requests, but simply suggested, "I'll host a banquet at home tomorrow. You're my daughter, so you should come and join us."
Jiang Shang paused: "Of course, your Aunt Yuan will come too. I know you don't like her, but Dad is old, and I need someone to take care of me. I can choose not to marry her, but she has to stay with me. As a father, I still hope to get your blessing."
Lin Shu smiled faintly, "Dad, you're serious. If you're really determined to marry her, I can't stop you. But I won't change what I said before. I'll be there on time for tomorrow's dinner. It's too late now, I'm going upstairs to sleep."
Looking at Lin Shu's indifferent back, Jiang Shang secretly gritted his teeth, and finally suppressed all his temper.
The first rain of spring fell at night, accompanied by rumbling thunder and lightning streaking across the sky.
Lin Shu sat on the bed with his knees hugged, staring at the changing weather outside the floor-to-ceiling window, with the sound of violent wind and rain in his ears.
In the past six years, every time there was a night like this, she would nestle in Zhou Yanli's arms, with their daughter between them, listening to the rumbling thunder in the distance, her heart filled with happiness.
She was originally asleep when she was awakened by thunder. It was the first time she woke up alone in the dark on such a night, and she felt depressed and helpless.
The clock on the wall showed three o'clock in the morning. Without her, would Zhou Shuang be afraid or would she feel warm and protected at this moment?
She picked up her phone and tried several times before finally calling the landline at the villa.
Just this time, she took a chance.
How scared she would be if Zhou Shuang was left at home.
Sister Xi woke up with sleepy eyes, and became a little more awake when she heard Lin Shu's voice.
"Why is Madam calling at this time?"
Now only the servants and Sister Xi are left in the empty villa. The master and the young lady have never returned since the mistress moved out.
"Is Shuangshuang home?"
She asked tentatively. Sister Xi was stunned for a moment, and a sense of sadness suddenly rose in her heart.
With reluctance, Sister Xi still told the truth.
"Madam, the young lady and the gentleman may be with that woman. They haven't come back yet."
Lin Shu felt his heart sinking.
The phone feels like it weighs a thousand pounds in my hand, but I already know the outcome, so why make myself sad again?
She said "Oh" and felt a little relieved.
At least, Zhou Shuang has someone to accompany her now.
The next day, Lin Shu worked at Feiyuan Technology all day and didn't think about his daughter anymore.
She had originally planned to call Zhou Shuang after daybreak, but she actually forgot about it after returning to the company.
When I remembered it after get off work, he had already returned to the Lin family.
As soon as Lin Shu got out of the car, he saw Zhou Yanli's car parked in the yard.
A rare expression of surprise appeared on her face, and she confirmed again and again that it was indeed his car.
Lin Shu was wondering when the car door opened and Wen Xin came out.
"Should I call you cousin? You are my future uncle's daughter."
Lin Shu finally understood that when Jiang Shang said last night that he was entertaining distinguished guests at home, he was referring to Zhou Yanli and Wen Xin.
By the time I realized it, it was too late to leave.
Jiang Shang happened to walk out of the house and saw them.
"Lin Shu is back too. Come help greet the guests."
Oh--
Lin Shu raised a hint of irony in her smile. Zhou Yanli met her gaze, his eyes expressionless.
Seeing Lin Shu was like seeing a stranger. He walked into the hall with Wen Xin with an expressionless face.
Yuan Yuan was busy at home directing the servants to prepare a banquet, looking like the hostess.
Lin Shu suddenly realized that no matter whether Yuan Yuan had a formal status or not, at least in Jiang Shang's eyes, he had already regarded her as his wife.
However, there was always something missing between Mrs. Jiang and Ms. Yuan.
Lin Shu followed without a word, and he and Zhou Yanli seemed like strangers who had never met before.
"Wen Xin, Mr. Zhou, please take a seat."
Yuan Yuan greeted him warmly. Jiang Shang had already sat down in the main seat, with Yuan Yuan sitting next to him.
As Jiang Shang's daughter, Lin Shu sat in the lower seat, facing Wen Xin and the others.
"You two have already met at the old lady's birthday party last time, so there is no need for me to introduce you again."
Jiang Shang was shameless and didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Zhou Yanli helped Wen Xin pull out a chair and thoughtfully set the tableware for her.
He didn't look at Lin Shu the whole time. His attention seemed to be on Wen Xin. Jiang Shang and Yuan Yuan had long noticed Zhou Yanli's caring attitude towards Wen Xin, and there was relief in their eyes.
Especially Jiang Shang, he couldn't hide his happiness at all, and even looked a little proud.
Lin Shu picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of water, remaining surprisingly calm.
Jiang Shang had been chatting with Zhou Yanli, mostly about business matters. Wen Xin had been at Feiyuan Technology for so long and was in charge of the financial market, so of course he could chat with them.
Only Lin Shu ate seriously the entire time, without even saying a word.
"Lin Shu, I heard you also went to Feiyuan Technology, and you're Mr. Gu's secretary?"
Jiang Shang casually turned the topic to Lin Shu, and at this time Zhou Yanli finally looked at Lin Shu.
"Um."
Lin Shu said calmly, "I want to go out and work."
What is coming will eventually come, and Jiang Shang will never care about her work for no reason.
"My cousin is more than just a secretary. She also participated in the programming of a new game that the company recently launched, and she is the main programmer. Cousin, am I right?"
The warmth is intentional.
Lin Shu finally understood that today's family dinner was a Hongmen Banquet specially set up for her.
But, so what?
Lin Shu neither admitted nor denied it.
At this moment, Zhou Yanli seemed to look at her a few more times. Lin Shu noticed it, but didn't care.
"Mr. Wen is too polite. Mr. Wen is the game developer, the credit doesn't go to me."
Lin Shu kicked the ball back. Yuan Yuan, who didn't know what was going on, was very happy at the moment.
"So Xinxin can program, Lao Jiang. I told you she's amazing. Mr. Zhou, you have to cherish her. She's a rare talent."
Lin Shu didn't care. Wen Xin felt a little angry when she saw her calm expression, but she couldn't show it in front of Zhou Yanli.
In the end, it was Jiang Shang who spoke.
"I heard about this from Xinxin. Lin Shu, Dad didn't expect you to have this ability. Yingtian Group and Yanli have invested a huge amount of money in developing this game. If you can really repair it, please do Dad a favor."
Jiang Shang paused and said, "You also own 25% of Yingtian Group. We businessmen are all about making money. You don't want the company to lose money, right?"
Zhou Yanli stared at Lin Shu from beginning to end, but did not express anything.
So, he also came to show some warmth and wanted her to fix the game?
Unfortunately, the game's self-destruction was their own fault, not her intention. Now it's impossible to beg her for help.
Lin Shu finally put down his chopsticks and looked at everyone at the table calmly.
"Boss Wen probably doesn't know that Boss Gu has already sold the game for 20 million and gave me 5 million in dividends. So, even if I wanted to help now, I'm afraid I don't have the ability to do so."
Wen Xin was so excited that she slammed the table and stood up: "Impossible, I am the developer. Why did Gu Fujing sell the game without my consent?"
Lin Shu drank his water calmly and said, "Then you should ask Mr. Gu."
