I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 383 Ventilation
Wei Lin was well aware that Huo Jiaxiong held a high position.

Due to his age and qualifications, Qin Wei will certainly not reach Huo Jiaxiong's level for the time being. However, Wei Lin already knew from Han Jie that Qin Wei's family background was exceptionally strong.

Han Jie also made it clear that it would be beneficial for both Huo Shiqi and Qin Wei to meet and get to know each other better.

It was obvious that he wasn't referring to Huo Shiqi, but rather to Huo Jiaxiong and Qin Wei's family.

In Wei Lin's opinion, Qin Wei's invitation to Huo Shiqi was most likely an attempt to win over Huo Shiqi's father.

Huo Jiaxiong is very likely to be the beneficiary of this matter.

Qin Wei's move was also intended to do Wei Lin a favor.

"As for Uncle Huo, I used a Favorability Fruit when we met briefly, and it left a relatively good impression."

"I've helped Shiqi with her cosmetics business a bit, but we're not actually tied together by any financial interests. Sister Zhu has also helped me a lot, so if I can do Qin Wei a favor, why not?"

Zhu Jun's influence played a role in the conflict between Duan Hongjing in Jinling City and Zhuang Daoyuan.

Aside from opening up access to several of the internet celebrities he had signed with Huo Shiqi and making a brief contact with Dai Yixuan, he didn't offer much help to Zhu Jun.

He also knew that although Zhu Jun and Huo Jiaxiong seemed to be divorced, they had always gotten along quite harmoniously because of their daughter, Huo Shiqi.

Zhu Jun's real estate business has reached its current scale, which must have been due to the support of her ex-husband behind the scenes.

Having already used a favor-giving fruit, and with Huo Jiaxiong already having a good impression of him, coupled with Qin Wei's proactive gestures, Wei Lin felt that Huo Jiaxiong would at least remember some of the good things he had done for him once he found out.

The same applies to Zhu Jun and Huo Shiqi.

……

"Han Jie invited you to dinner? Who else is there?"

In the afternoon, at Huo Shiqi's cosmetics company.

Zhu Jun took some time to come over and check on things. Just then, she overheard Han Jie calling and asked curiously, "Have you been getting quite close to Han Jie lately?"

"No, not really. We only met a few times because Brother Wei was there."

Huo Shiqi answered honestly, smiling as she said, "Brother Wei was also there tonight. It seems the person who treated us to dinner wasn't Brother Han, but someone named Qin Wei."

"Qin Wei? Where is this Qin Wei?"

Zhu Jun was stunned.

"According to Brother Han, it seems to be a very close friend of his, from Nanjing City."

Huo Shiqi also felt puzzled and asked in confusion, "I've never met Qin Wei before. He came all the way to Linjiang City to treat us to dinner, so why did he invite me?"

"Jinling City, Qin Wei, Han Jie's friend..."

Zhu Jun muttered something, quickly matching the person to the name. A hint of joy quietly appeared on her still charming face.

She didn't explain anything to Huo Shiqi, but immediately dialed Wei Lin's number.

"sister!"

As soon as the call connected, Wei Lin greeted him warmly, "What have you been up to lately?"

"Aren't these just trivial matters at the company? What else could I possibly be busy with?" Zhu Jun smiled and got straight to the point: "Are you and Qin Wei very close?"

Wei Lin hesitated for a moment, carefully choosing his words: "We're not particularly close. I only got to know him through Han Jie."

“Shiqi is right next to me. She said Han Jie invited her to dinner tonight, and Qin Wei is hosting.” Zhu Jun paused for a moment, then asked, “Is this Han Jie’s idea? Or Qin Wei’s idea?”

Wei Lin: "They should all have a little bit."

Zhu Jun frowned and said, "After Lao Huo was transferred to Jinling City, he faced many obstacles at work, and many things did not go smoothly. The Qin family has deep roots in Jinling City and is deeply involved in various departments. Lao Huo has tried to communicate with the elders of the Qin family many times, but he was turned away each time."

Wei Lin listened attentively with a solemn expression.

"Wei Lin, tell me the truth. Do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing that Han Jie and Qin Wei invited Shi Qi to dinner?" Zhu Jun's voice was serious.

She often communicates with her ex-husband and knows the difficulties he is currently facing, so she has to be careful.

Qin Wei came to Linjiang City and specially invited his daughter over, but she was a little unsure about the situation.

Wei Lin hadn't expected the situation to be so complicated, and became even more cautious upon hearing this.

Qin Wei's family background was even more extravagant than he had imagined. Even someone like Huo Jiaxiong, who had been promoted, was turned away when he tried to visit.

Qin Wei came here specifically for this trip, and Han Jie called Huo Shiqi over. Whether Qin Wei had any intention of doing so or not, Han Jie really couldn't say.

But Qin Wei owed him such a huge favor, and knew that he was close to Huo Shiqi, so he shouldn't have done anything underhanded to Huo Shiqi.

Even if Qin Wei really wanted to do something, he shouldn't have done it in front of him.

They shouldn't have targeted Huo Shiqi!

Judging from his intuition, Qin Wei wasn't that incompetent, so the dinner party that evening was likely to be mostly positive.

"Sister Zhu, it shouldn't be a bad thing."

Wei Lin couldn't really guarantee anything, so he could only tell the truth: "Brother Han and Brother Qin both owe me favors."

"Brother Qin owes me an even bigger favor. He came to Linjiang specifically to treat me to a meal to thank me. Han Jie told me to call her Shiqi, but I don't know what Brother Qin meant by it."

"Brother Han only told me that it would be good for both sides to call Shiqi over, and I really don't know anything else."

"Sis, that's all I know for now."

Wei Lin explained the situation.

Sister Zhu was suddenly startled and exclaimed, "Wei Lin, are you saying that Han Jie and Qin Wei both owe you favors? You're not kidding, are you?"

Han Jie is the son of the richest man in Linjiang City. He took over the family business at a young age and became independent, earning her high regard. She knew a little about Qin Wei's performance in politics through her ex-husband Huo Jiaxiong, and was even more aware of the Qin family's background.

How did these two people, one extremely wealthy and the other extremely powerful, end up owing Wei Lin a favor?

Wei Lin said seriously, "Sister, I don't joke about things like this."

The mere sight of a single fruit had already incurred a debt of gratitude from both Han Jie and Qin Wei. Furthermore, Han Jie had profited greatly from the two stocks he recommended, which constituted a second debt of gratitude.

"Okay, then I'm relieved!"

Zhu Jun nodded gently.

Since Han Jie had told Wei Lin that it would be better for both of them to have their daughter go, she felt relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Jun instructed Huo Shiqi to try her best to build a good relationship with Qin Wei, saying that it might help her father and that she should treat it carefully.

Huo Shiqi suddenly felt immense pressure.

"Your father and I need to discuss this matter further!"

Zhu Jun, slightly excited, licked her lips and said, "I hope tonight's dinner isn't just Han Jie's arrangement. If Qin Wei also had his intentions, then..."

She immediately contacted her ex-husband, Huo Jiaxiong.

"Wei Lin? Is that the kid I saw at Shiqi's company last time? He's the one who helped Qin Wei, making Qin Wei owe him a huge favor?" Huo Jiaxiong questioned carefully.

Zhu Jun explained each point in detail.

A moment later, Huo Jiaxiong said on the phone, "After dinner, have Shiqi call me and tell me everything that happened on the table."

Zhu Jun: "Okay."

……

Half past five.

After Wei Lin and He Jingxuan finished exercising, they quickly showered at the gym, changed their clothes, and rushed off.

"Tonight? Want to come to my place?"

At the entrance, the tall and charming young coach asked in a low voice.

After a few days of business trip to Shanghai, Wei Lin was busy taking care of Zhuang Qing, Lin Nanxi, and Shen Yanfei after returning. During these days, Wei Lin only exercised with her and never appeared at night.

The little girl was a bit resentful, but today she finally couldn't help but ask the question herself.

"I have a business dinner tonight. I'll come find you after it's over, but I might be a little late. Also, I'll be drinking tonight, so please prepare some extra bottled water for me."

Wei Lin said with a smile.

He Jingxuan's bright eyes subtly lit up with spring-like light. She nodded obediently and happily went back.

Next to the Land Cruiser, Lin Ping, who had been waiting for Wei Lin, hurriedly said as soon as she saw him coming over, "Wei Lin, let's chat for a bit!"

Wei Lin nodded and got into the car first, and Lin Ping immediately pulled the door open and came in.

"Fang Qidong has given us another order!"

Lin Ping couldn't hide her joy as she stared at Wei Lin and said, "This order is even bigger! Wei Lin, thank you!"

Wei Lin was stunned.

After thinking for a moment, he understood the reason.

The two stocks he recommended have both surged this week. Although Fang Qidong entered the market later, he should have gotten a share of the profits as well.

Elsewhere, Fang Qidong didn't offer him much help, but he focused his efforts on securing orders for Lin Ping's family factory.

Fang Qidong harbored a misunderstanding, believing that he and Lin Ping were having an affair and treating Lin Ping as his woman, which led to this incident.

"Damn it! I need to clarify things with Brother Fang as soon as possible. I have absolutely no connection with Lin Ping!"

Wei Lin thought to himself.

"Wei Lin, my brother and I really want to thank you properly. When would be a convenient time for us to..." Lin Ping brought up the old matter again.

Shaking his head, Wei Lin said, "Since Brother Fang trusts you so much, you mustn't let him down. Forget about treating him to dinner; it's unnecessary, and I'm quite busy too."

Lin Ping, being quite perceptive, quickly changed the subject: "Wei Lin, is there still a possibility for Xiao Zhi and An Xin?"

Wei Lin pondered for a moment and said, "It might be necessary for Feng Yuzhi to take the initiative."

An Xin's true love is still Feng Yuzhi; Zhang Jiajia is just a front. An Xin's physique and appearance have changed drastically, and he will soon be taking over Tianzhong Hat Industry's branch company.

He did not use any of the fruits of marriage on An Xin and Feng Yuzhi, and did not bind the two of them tightly.

He felt that with An Xin's current skill level, he should clear the level with Feng Yuzhi, even if it was just a good opportunity for him to hone his skills.

In this kind of situation, before the two get married, the man will never lose out.

"I understand. I'll talk to Xiaozhi about it!"

Lin Ping indicated that she understood.

Feng Yuzhi's complaint was about An Xin bringing Zhang Jiajia over to the dinner party last time and how he had been so attentive and caring towards Zhang Jiajia.

She could vaguely sense that, due to the huge changes in An Xin's temperament and physique, Feng Yuzhi had a completely different feeling about An Xin.

If she puts in a little effort, or even tries to play matchmaker, there's still a chance for the two of them!
