However, even if he's not their biological son, there's a limit to how happy they can be. Sure enough, after their initial joy subsided, Lin's parents put pressure on him: "Xiao Kai is almost married, what about you? When are you going to get one?"
Lin Congzhi calmly replied, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I'm going to the girl's house."
Lin's mother was stunned: "You mean go to the house of that girl you can't forget?"
Lin Congzhi nodded in response: "Mm!"
"Doesn't she have a boyfriend? What are you doing at her house?" Lin's mother felt that her son was being inconsiderate and was bringing shame to their family.
Lin Congzhi gave a plausible explanation: "I'm picking her up for work."
Lin's mother was somewhat surprised: "She also works in Chuyun City?"
"Yes." Lin Congzhi nodded and said, "Not only that, she is also the general manager of our company."
"No way, is he that outstanding?"
Lin's mother found it hard to believe, because in her memory, the girl who had been pursuing her son so intensely in high school didn't have very good grades.
Lin Congzhi said with certainty, "That's right, a smart and beautiful leader."
"She's so outstanding, why hasn't she married her boyfriend yet?"
Lin's mother felt that something was strange about this matter; it was full of errors and was very unreasonable.
"Well..." Lin Congzhi wanted to continue praising her, but now he could only tell the truth: "Because I was the one who promoted her."
"You mean, you're the general manager of your company?"
Last night, Lin's mother learned from her son that he was now very wealthy and had no worries about food or clothing; however, she never expected that he was the general manager of a company, which was completely unexpected.
At noon, a relative asked him to help introduce some good jobs to his younger cousin. He said he was a secretary and didn't have much decision-making power, and he said it so absolutely that people had no choice but to believe him.
Lin Congzhi did not deny it: "That's one way to understand it."
Lin's mother asked, "Then why did you lie to your relatives at noon today and say you were a secretary?"
Lin Congzhi was furious: "I'm just a secretary now, the general manager's secretary; besides, don't mention those relatives to me. How they treated us back then should have told us what the future would hold."
"That's true, but they used to..."
Lin Congzhi was extremely annoyed: "Mom, can you stop talking? They're all malicious towards you, you don't need to play the good guy."
Lin's mother was unable to argue her case because those relatives had indeed acted rather rudely back then. They could have lent her a thousand or a few hundred yuan, but they refused to lend her a single penny.
She didn't want to deal with that matter anymore, and instead brought up the topic of her son's sweetheart: "Son, was she there willingly, or was she forced by you?"
Lin Congzhi dared not tell the truth, otherwise his parents would beat him to death: "Of course it was voluntary. Do I have the power to force her to comply?"
Lin's mother was pleasantly surprised: "So it seems you and her still have a chance?"
Lin Congzhi smiled and said, "That's right."
Lin's mother was filled with worry and immediately frowned: "It's just wishful thinking on your part. Will she be moved?"
Lin Congzhi replied seriously, "I don't know if she will be moved. I only know that if I do nothing, she will definitely not be moved and will hate me forever."
"Alright, as long as you know your limits." Lin's mother didn't want to interfere too much: "I'll just remind you one thing: there's no happiness in forcing things."
Lin Congzhi said confidently, "Mom, don't worry, I never force anyone, especially women."
