I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 516 Steady
After realizing Zhao Ling's true intentions, Wei Lin suddenly felt relieved and stopped worrying about the future.

He ate and drank as usual, spending his time with the woman he loved, ignoring the temporary difficulties the company was facing.

The affection level is also steadily increasing.

Three days later, Peng Xiang found a solution to the hacking problem on his own, and Kunpeng Games resumed operation.

Tuesday, October 5nd.

Affection level: 35257/50000.

Life Energy: 1270/5000.

In the morning, Xinlin Hat Industry Co., Ltd.

“Brother Peng was chosen by the system, so I knew that even without me, he would eventually be able to turn danger into safety.”

Wei Lin smiled happily in his office.

"You can still laugh?"

An Yuntian looked worried, took a deep drag on his cigarette, and sighed, "Our products and Qingque's products are all unsold, and many channels have been blocked. Why don't you seem worried at all?"

Old An had repeated this statement more than once.

“The hats and clothes won’t spoil in the warehouse. We can just keep selling them when sales pick up again.” Wei Lin had indeed figured it out and comforted her with a smile: “If the factory is relatively quiet lately, we can also take on some export orders. Trust me, our hard times won’t last long.”

An Yuntian nodded helplessly: "That's the only way."

Due to the popularity of its own brand, Xinlin has not accepted large foreign trade orders for a long time. If there are any orders, it will be pushed to Huafeng and Zhijie's factories to do them.

Currently, due to the severe blow dealt to Zhao Ling, Xin Lin is about to return to his old ways.

……

Qifeng Hat Industry.

"Dad, there's been a problem with my brother-in-law."

Zhuang Daoyuan frowned as he stepped into the old man's office and said, "I've received news these past few days that many of Xinlin's partners have suddenly cut off all ties with Xinlin."

"And that Tianhua Trading Company, including Qunxin which creates internet celebrities, they've all stopped cooperating with Xinlin."

"Dad, do you know what happened?"

Qi Feng's own brand has never taken off, and Zhuang Daoyuan is even trying to learn from Wei Lin's experience, so he is particularly concerned about Xin Lin's movements.

He's an industry insider, and news about anything gets to him; he's sure the old man knows about it too.

"Wei Lin has offended a powerful person, and he will be in trouble for a while."

Zhuang Dasheng appeared calm. He had heard about the matter from Zhao Fulong, Ma Yungui, and others, and said, "I believe Wei Lin can handle it well."

"Dad, should we help my brother-in-law?" Zhuang Daoyuan suggested.

Zhuang Dasheng was taken aback, then looked at him with a strange expression: "Are you serious, kid?"

"Of course!" Zhuang Daoyuan replied solemnly, "I used to have reservations about my brother-in-law because I wasn't familiar with him! As I've gotten to know him better, I now have great respect for him!"

Zhuang Dasheng nodded with some relief and said, "You've really grown up."

The reason he kept quiet about the troubles Wei Lin was dealing with was because he was worried that his son would take advantage of the situation.

When Zhuang Daoyuan learned that Xinlin was in trouble and that it couldn't be resolved in a short time, he not only didn't mock her, but also offered to help her.

This made Zhuang Dasheng look at him with new respect for the first time.

……

Feiyu Sports Center.

In the afternoon, after a football match ended.

"Is something wrong at the company?"

Zhuang Qingxiang, drenched in sweat, handed Wei Lin a bottle of mineral water and frowned, saying, "I heard it from my dad, and I also asked Zhao Yuanqing. They both said you offended someone." Wei Lin smiled, drank the water, and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I can handle it."

His troubles gradually became no secret, and more and more people around him knew about them.

Han Jie, Zhao Yuanqing, Wu Feiyu, and even Huang Xingzhi and Qian Zixu heard about it through various channels.

True friends all expressed concern and asked what they could do to help him, but some people gloated and made sarcastic remarks.

“My dad said that if you’re short of orders or money, you can just call him.”

Zhuang Qing said softly.

“I’m not short of money, and as for the orders… I have enough for now.” Wei Lin felt a warmth in his heart, never expecting that someone like Zhuang Dasheng would be willing to lend a helping hand at a crucial moment.

"Wei Lin, does your business have anything to do with Xiao Bing?" Wu Feiyu asked, wiping his sweat as he approached. "Did you block her WeChat and phone number because of something she did?"

He had been in frequent contact with Xiao Bing these past few days, and from Xiao Bing he learned that Wei Lin had gotten involved with a woman named Zhao Ling, and that Zhao Ling and Xiao Bing knew each other.

Therefore, Wu Feiyu naturally assumed that Wei Lin and Xiao Bing's sudden break in contact must be because Xiao Bing had done something.

Xiao Bing had tried every means to explain that although she and Zhao Ling knew each other, they were not actually familiar with each other at all, but Wu Feiyu just wouldn't believe her.

"It has nothing to do with her, don't misunderstand her."

Wei Lin shook his head, not knowing what to say in detail, and simply said, "I have no problem with her, but she is too involved with another person, and I don't want to have any more contact with her."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feiyu finally gave up.

Just then, Wei Lin's phone rang; it was from Han Jie.

"Wei Lin, Mayor Mu is very concerned about you. Do you have time to come to my teahouse?"

"Now?"

"Yes, right now."

"Okay, I'll come right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Wei Lin explained to Zhuang Qing, "Han Jie needs to see me, and I have to go there immediately."

Zhuang Qing, understanding the bigger picture and knowing it was important business, said gently, "Go ahead."

……

A quarter of an hour later.

Inside the soundproof private room of Han Jie's private teahouse.

"Wei Lin, what is your relationship with Xin Gui? How did you acquire shares in Xin Gui?"

Mu Qingshan looked solemn. After Wei Lin sat down, he went straight to the point and said, "The newly rich CEO Ma is being investigated. They're investigating his past."

Before Wei Lin could speak, Han Jie interjected, saying, "Decades ago, many rules were unclear, and businesses would inevitably violate regulations to some extent. If you were to investigate everything from the past, you could find something on everyone. Mayor Mu, you should understand that!"

His family and Mu Qingshan had a close relationship, and the two had been discussing this topic before Wei Lin arrived, which is why he said that.

Mu Qingya didn't reply, and continued to look at Wei Lin.

“I only recently acquired shares in Xingui, it hasn’t been that long,” Wei Lin said frankly without any concealment. “Uncle Ma thinks I have a keen sense for investment, so he forced me into the company. Uncle Mu, I hope you can uphold justice and prevent Uncle Ma from being implicated because of me.”

Mu Qingshan asked sharply, "Have you offended someone?"

Wei Lin smiled wryly and nodded, saying, "Yes, Uncle Ma got into this mess entirely because of me."

Mu Qingshan asked again, "Who?"

Wei Lin: "A woman named Zhao Ling."
