Chapter 938 Urgently Needs Money
"Gulp."
The experienced chef unconsciously swallowed.
He really didn't want to waver in his resolve.
But there was really no other way; the other party had given too much.
How much baby formula could this huge sum of money buy for the child?
He desperately needed the money, and those nine hundred dollars were quite important to him. Besides, he didn't seem to need to be so accommodating; the other party was indeed in the wrong first.
She did this so that her child could receive timely medical treatment.
I ran several red lights in a row, but what did the other person do?
To avoid trouble, they made all sorts of excuses and refused to help at all.
Where is the conscience?
Since she's so heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless.
The experienced craftsman's mind raced, and his expression shifted constantly.
Su Xue thought the experienced driver in front of her was a saint who regarded money as dirt. Nine hundred yuan was not a large sum for her, but she was unwilling to keep raising the price endlessly.
Helping him would mean losing money.
"What's going on?" After a moment's thought, Su Xue said to the old master.
Just as the master craftsman was about to agree, Su Xue spoke first.
"This price is my limit. If you're still not satisfied, then forget it."
He then reached for the money on the table.
The experienced craftsman, quick-witted and agile, snatched the nine banknotes into his pocket.
He said to Su Xue with a forced smile:
"What are you saying, young lady? You've helped me so much and given me such a generous reward, how could I possibly let you down? I will definitely cooperate fully in this matter." The old craftsman's face, full of wrinkles, was all smiles.
Lin Beichen, standing to the side, frowned slightly.
For some reason, the dark aura on the master's forehead had not yet dissipated.
What exactly happened? What misfortune is he about to encounter? It's truly perplexing. Yu Feng also noticed Lin Beichen's puzzled expression, but didn't say anything.
Since Brother Lin Beichen remains silent.
Then let's just observe from the sidelines.
Zhou Tianliang also looked at Su Xue and Liu Qing with great interest.
I didn't realize these two girls were from wealthy families.
Wealthy people always inspire goodwill wherever they go.
Moreover, these two girls are young and beautiful.
Zhou Tianliang, in the prime of his youth, couldn't help but feel attracted to her. Of course, he wasn't one to be easily swayed by beauty; he had enough self-control. At the same time, he was also curious about the whereabouts of Lin Beichen's other two experts. It was said that one was the former top assassin of Japan, and the other was the previous generation's king of single combat.
Each of them was someone he was extremely interested in.
He wanted to see the whole team.
Actually, he was slightly disappointed when he first met Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen looked unremarkable, not as stunning as one might imagine. He seemed like an ordinary person; if one didn't already know about Lin Beichen's many achievements, one would truly think he was just an average person. Of course, he understood that one shouldn't judge a book by its cover; perhaps Lin Beichen was simply hiding his true nature, which made him appear ordinary.
There's a saying: "Return to simplicity."
Indeed, he interpreted Lin Beichen's state as a return to simplicity.
Indeed, Lin Beichen's current state can be described as a return to simplicity.
When not displaying strength.
He was no different from an ordinary person.
"Then let's set off. After we finish your business, we'll accompany you to visit that lady," Su Xue said to the old man with a smile.
She had already foreseen that this topic would ignite public opinion.
In fact, her judgment was indeed accurate.
The events unfolded largely as she had predicted, and the incident indeed sparked a huge public outcry.
Regarding this phenomenon.
Su Xue didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
On the contrary, she thought it was a good thing; whether it was positive or negative, as long as it went viral, that was fine. Infamy was still fame, as long as it generated enough buzz. That's why she went to great lengths to persuade the experienced craftsman to cooperate.
They were even willing to pay Lao Liu a reward.
"I understand, I will fully cooperate with you."
"Please rest assured."
The smile on Lao Liu's face was impossible to hide.
The corners of her mouth had barely been suppressed when they involuntarily turned up again.
He could hardly contain his joy; this generous reward was of utmost importance to him.
"Thank you all for your hard work."
Su Xue then looked at Lin Beichen and the other two.
The men before me are distinguished and have an impressive presence; they are clearly of extraordinary origin.
Their identities are definitely not simple! They are very likely sons of wealthy families.
"No trouble at all, let's go."
Lin Beichen waved his hand casually, still somewhat puzzled by the matter.
The faint worry etched on his brow weighed heavily on Yu Feng's heart.
Something that even Lin Beichen found troublesome
It can never be simple.
Things will certainly not go as smoothly as imagined. This driver, Lao Liu, is likely in danger, but what exactly he will face is currently unknown.
Lin Beichen can judge good or bad fortune by looking at facial features.
However, he does not possess the ability to foresee the future.
If one could foresee the future, then one would not be an ordinary person.
Beings capable of foreseeing the future are truly divine.
"How are things? You all seem to have something on your minds."
Zhou Tianliang finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked the question that had been bothering him.
Seeing Zhou Tianliang's confused expression, Yu Feng gave him a look that said, "You asked something you shouldn't have." Seeing Zhou's increasingly anxious expression, he stopped joking.
After a moment of contemplation, he explained:
"You should know that Brother Lin Beichen is a cultivator. He sensed that the driver, Lao Liu, was in danger. If I'm not mistaken, it might be a bloody disaster. Since he happened to have some free time recently, Brother Lin Beichen decided to..." Yu Feng explained the situation in detail.
However, most of what he said was just his own speculation.
After saying this, he turned his gaze to Lin Beichen.
He couldn't help but feel proud after receiving Lin Beichen's affirmation.
As expected, he was right. It seems his ability to read people is getting better and better. Even Lin Beichen's eyes flashed with surprise, clearly not expecting Yu Feng to analyze things so thoroughly. This kid has indeed improved a lot.
……
at the same time.
Wang Fugui personally visited his daughter's workplace.
He wanted to see for himself who his daughter Wang Ling's sweetheart really was.
He was deeply concerned about his daughter's marriage. Of course, he wouldn't use his power to intimidate her; as a high-ranking official in the communications department, his trip was merely an inspection. Moreover, he had already warned Wang Ling not to reveal their father-daughter relationship.
Although the daughter is indeed exceptionally talented
His performance in all aspects was commendable.
Getting into the communications sector is not difficult.
However, if others were to learn of Wang Ling's relationship with him, it would inevitably cause controversy.
He didn't want his daughter to be seen as someone who got her position through connections.
This kind of thing can be a big deal or a small deal, and it's never good to get it out, so it's best to keep it a secret.
"Hmm, is it him?"
Wang Fugui looked solemn.
He had heard about Chen Lin's situation before.
He was very familiar with Chen Lin's outstanding performance in the communications department.
In comparison, his beloved daughter, Wang Ling, seemed somewhat inferior.
However, with him as a father, these differences can be bridged.
"It is indeed a tricky situation, but his relationship with Lin Beichen is not yet clear."
"This could be an opportunity."
"As long as their relationship isn't officially defined, there's still room for maneuver."
Wang Fugui would never do anything to damage other people's relationships.
But Lin Beichen and Chen Lin's relationship is still far from settled.
They are not yet officially a couple.
Fighting for his daughter's happiness is his responsibility as a father. His daughter, Wang Ling, is definitely not a third party.
This is fair and square competition!
Of course, the fewer people who know, the better.
It's ultimately inappropriate for too many people to know about it.
"Hello, Leader Wang Fugui, everything is normal here."
"Okay, go ahead and do your thing."
Wang Fugui waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities.
After giving a brief explanation, his gaze returned to Chen Lin.
His beloved daughter, Wang Ling, stood quietly watching from the side.
"This girl, doesn't she trust her own father? Why keep such a close eye on her?"
He felt a little helpless.
He then said to Chen Lin:
"Come with me for a moment, there are some things I need to confirm."
Chen Lin looked surprised by Wang Fugui's sudden summons.
I didn't expect this communications department leader to talk to me alone. Is there something important?
He didn't dare to neglect.
He immediately followed Wang Fugui to the conference room.
Watching Chen Lin's departing figure, her colleagues cast envious glances at her.
"I really envy him; he's probably getting a promotion."
"He's so outstanding, we can't compare at all."
"It's too difficult to catch up with him."
Someone sighed.
Many people share this sentiment.
"Yes, being in the same department as him means fewer opportunities to get ahead."
"Why is it that everyone has two eyes and one nose, yet he stands out so much?"
"Ugh, this is so frustrating."
While many agreed, their words carried a hint of bitterness.
Without comparison, there is no harm; it's easy to feel inferior when compared. Fortunately, Chen Lin is not usually arrogant.
Not only that.
He gets along very well with his colleagues in the department.
Therefore, most people approve of Chen Lin and usually address her as a sister. If Chen Lin is promoted, they will be genuinely happy.
My sister got a promotion.
Perhaps they can help me in the future.
"I know everything about you and Lin Beichen. I don't want your personal feelings to affect your work. It's not that I'm against you dating, it's just that Lin Beichen's situation is rather special."
"You may not know this, but he's about to embark on a dangerous mission. He's going to the Empire in three months, and this won't be the only mission like this."
"You've had more contact with him, so you should know him better than I do."
"He might meet with some misfortune one day, so you should think it over carefully."
After saying those harsh words, he turned and left.
Wang Fugui did not give Chen Lin a chance to refute.
He knew Chen Lin would definitely not agree with those words.
But that's not important; he's just here to give a heads-up.
As they left, Wang Fugui gave Wang Ling a knowing look, but the others didn't notice.
After Wang Fugui left completely,
Everyone gathered around Chen Lin to ask what was going on.
Chen Lin shook her head and didn't say much, just gave a few perfunctory replies.
"It's just some work assignments, not about promotion."
"You're all overthinking it. Promotions aren't that easy, and I'm still so young. Stop asking around. Focusing on your work is more important than anything else. Don't let your mind wander all day." Chen Lin waved her hand and returned to her workstation.
Others might actually believe this.
But Chen Fei, as Chen Lin's best friend, could not possibly be blind to the truth.
"Speak, what is it? What does that person want with you?"
Chen Fei didn't care about leaders or anything like that; all she knew was that Chen Lin was her best friend.
"It's nothing, didn't I just say so?" Chen Lin forced a calm smile, squinting as she scrutinized Chen Fei.
"That's our leader, isn't it inappropriate for you to talk like that?"
How can you refer to your boss as "that guy"?
Sensing Chen Lin's thoughts, Chen Fei smiled and said:
"I bet he said something else. It's just a few things that make you uncomfortable. Do you want me to guess, or will you just tell me?"
Chen Fei has a stronger presence than Chen Lin.
Chen Lin knew that if she didn't tell the truth, her secrets would likely be exposed. To save face, she ultimately decided to tell Chen Fei the truth. It wouldn't hurt to tell Chen Fei these things.
Chen Fei is a trustworthy and good friend.
"It's about Lin Beichen. I don't understand why Wang Fugui brought it up against me."
"He told me to stay away from Lin Beichen. Isn't that strange?"
Chen Lin was completely baffled.
I really can't figure out what the connection is between Lin Beichen and Wang Fugui.
Was he really worried about it affecting his work? Perhaps, but why would such a thing bother Wang Fugui? Why would he personally inquire about his subordinates' love lives? Or perhaps, Wang Fugui was warning himself on behalf of someone.
simply put.
I might be being watched.
A rival in secret. Probably a love rival.
After hearing Chen Lin's explanation, Chen Fei's expression turned strange.
She said earnestly to Chen Lin, "I've told you before that Lin Beichen is outstanding. If you don't take the initiative, someone else will snatch him up sooner or later."
"You were the first person to have any contact with him." "If you keep hesitating, you might end up becoming the third party. Are you willing to let someone else take your place? What are you really thinking?"
……
Perhaps we can compromise on other things.
However, he would never compromise on the matter of Lin Beichen.
Even with his rival's powerful connections, he remained unwavering. If Wang Fugui hadn't left so quickly, Chen Lin would have made him understand her resolve.
Indeed, Chen Lin even considered resigning.
But the other party left in such a hurry that he didn't have time to express his opinion.
Even after leaving, Wang Fugui was still shaken. He could feel the determination in Chen Lin's eyes. If he had stayed any longer, the two of them would probably have gotten into an argument in the meeting room.
"She's a tough girl to deal with. Without my help as her father, my daughter would be no match for her," Wang Fugui sighed helplessly.
He knew he couldn't stand idly by.
Wang Ling, the daughter, is no match for Chen Lin.
This matter will require him to put in more effort.
Fortunately, he is now Chen Lin's supervisor, so he can be given more work.
He'll be given a promotion once he meets his performance targets. But that would mean he'd lose time to see Lin Beichen, as his busy work schedule would keep him away.
……
"I plan to resign."
Chen Lin made a surprising statement.
This sudden remark almost made Chen Fei spit out the tea she had just drunk.
I never expected Chen Lin to make this decision.
She was doing well when she suddenly wanted to resign.
This is simply playing with one's future.
"Are you really going to quit? Do you know how much effort you've put into this job?"
"If we just quit like that, wouldn't all our years of hard work be wasted?"
"Have you really thought this through?" Chen Fei's expression became extremely serious.
This is no laughing matter.
He could also guess why Chen Lin resigned.
Wang Fugui personally warned Chen Lin, explaining that her rival had his backing. If she continued to stay there, she would inevitably be affected.
Not to mention that Wang Fugui would make things difficult for Chen Lin,
But ultimately it's not quite right.
For example, Wang Fugui might prevent Chen Lin from having the chance to meet Lin Beichen.
If Chen Fei could think of this, how could Chen Lin not understand? (End of Chapter)
