Chapter 1145 Treat as Life
Now that Suning has been teaching him everything he knows, Meng Xiaodong's table tennis skills have naturally improved by leaps and bounds, and he is slowly making a move towards Suning's position.

He occasionally participated in some international competitions and achieved good results. You should know that Suning's table tennis skills are not comparable to those of the natives of this world, so it completely opened up a new style of play for Meng Xiaodong.

During the break, Meng Xiaotian told Suning a piece of news in advance, "Suning, let me tell you something. You'd better be mentally prepared. My aunt and uncle-in-law are coming to the UK soon."

However, Su Ning smiled indifferently, thinking that Wu Qian would stop making trouble. "Your aunt and I are old acquaintances. As for your uncle-in-law, I have never met him. I don't think he will dislike me too much. After all, I am a wealthy bachelor now."

Although Meng Xiaodong did think that Suning's conditions were very good, he still reminded Suning with some concern, "Don't be careless! My aunt and uncle-in-law don't have a good impression of you. Although they said they were here to watch Yin Guo's game, the main purpose is to discuss your relationship with Yin Guo."

"Is it because I immigrated to Finland? And then worked for the Finnish Sports Authority in snooker?"

"Huh? That's about it."

"Superficial! My core business, Waves, is in overseas markets. If I hadn't immigrated to these countries in the first place, do you think I could have developed to the point where I am now? And do you know how many financial groups are eyeing my Waves right now?"

"Suning, we table tennis players have long careers. Wouldn't it be better if you gave up the rights to operate WavesAPP and returned to China to focus on participating in competitions?"

However, Su Ning had already heard the hidden meaning in Meng Xiaodong's words. He had actually acted as a lobbyist here. "Meng Xiaodong, then tell me honestly, who asked you to come here to persuade me?"

"No...no."

Ever since Suning founded the Waves APP, international consortiums have never given up and have all been eager to swallow up Waves.

However, Suning, which had neither technology nor funds, refused, so all kinds of strange things happened, which also directly led to the breakup of Suning and Laura.

But no one would have thought that someone would follow the path of Yin Guo's parents. It was obvious that a consortium had set its sights on them and wanted them to persuade him to give up the management rights of Waves.

Su Ning looked at Meng Xiaodong in front of him seriously and exposed Meng Xiaodong's little trick, "Meng Xiaodong, we have known each other for so many years, and you haven't changed at all. You blush as soon as you lie."

"Suning, a few days ago I received a call from your master, Mr. He Wenfeng. He has always been aware of your current difficulties, so he asked me to persuade you to put Waves aside and devote all your energy to snooker. You can still achieve your own dreams and success."

At this moment, Su Ning was truly shocked. He had never expected that the mastermind behind this had convinced He Wenfeng. This had somehow allowed Su Ning to guess the origins of these people. "Hmph! I guess they're trying to help him realize his dream?"

"This……"

"In my eyes, the difference between Waves and snooker is undoubtedly the difference between watermelon and sesame. Now you want me to give up the watermelon to keep the so-called sesame. Do you really think I, Suning, am a fool who can't tell the difference?"

"Suning, isn't it mainly because my aunt and uncle-in-law are against you and Yin Guo? Don't you want to make some sacrifices for Yin Guo?"

Then, Su Ning looked at Meng Xiaodong with a domineering look on his face and emphasized, "Xiaodong, first of all, you don't understand one thing. No one can be an obstacle between Yin Guo and me. Not your cousin Meng Xiaodong, and certainly not your aunt and uncle-in-law."

"..."

"Alright! Thank you for your concern for me. However, I, Suning, have come this far, so I'm not completely without anything. If any hounds come up and harass me, I'll make them pay the price."

In fact, Meng Xiaodong also believes that Suning is in a very good state now. On the one hand, he is creating his own business empire, and on the other hand, he is still playing his favorite snooker. He is a complete and well-deserved winner in life.

But now the main contradictions are concentrated on Wu Qian and his wife. They both want Suning to return to China for development. For this reason, they tried their best to persuade Suning's snooker mentor He Wenfeng, and it would be best if he could take charge of the Dongxincheng Club to win glory for the country.

Although Meng Xiaodong was not sure what Wu Qian and his wife's purpose was, he still ran over and persuaded Suning. After all, he also wanted Suning to return to China to develop directly.

That night, Su Ning looked at Yin Guo and asked, "Yin Guo, if your parents really don't want you to marry a foreigner like me, what will you choose?"

However, Yin Guo looked at Su Ning with a determined expression, "No! I will definitely stick to our love and marriage."

"That's good! Then everything I did for you was meaningful."

"Suning, there's something I'm very curious about. Why don't you allow Waves to accept external investment?"

"No need! My own funds and technology have no bottlenecks at all, and the market is also expanding steadily. There is really no need to hand over my own interests to others. What's the point of running the business unhappy then?"

"Too."

Suning knew that a consortium must have contacted Wu Qian and his wife, otherwise they would not have asked Meng Xiaodong to persuade him. There must be an exchange of interests hidden behind this that Suning was unaware of.

But Suning will not pay attention to these things every day. After all, the most important thing is to do its own thing step by step. Anyway, as long as it sticks to its own bottom line, it will be fine.

……

Suning didn't expect Wu Qian to care so much about his immigration, and he didn't expect that his teacher He Wenfeng was also involved. Similarly, He Wenfeng, Wu Qian and others didn't expect Suning to oppose it so strongly.

This reminded them of Suning's stubbornness. He retired directly because he felt the referee was unfair. They suddenly realized that this time things might not be so simple.

Soon, Wu Qian and Yin Guo's father flew to Hull, England. Wu Qian then looked at Su Ning and asked directly, "I wonder if I should call you Su Ning or Lin Yiyang?"

However, Su Ning said casually with a hint of meaning, "Whatever! My good friends all call me Su Ning, and there's nothing wrong with occasionally calling me Lin Yiyang."

Wu Qian and Yin Guo's father naturally understood the hidden meaning in Su Ning's words, but they still looked at Su Ning and explained, "Lin Yiyang, Yin Guo's father and I don't approve of your relationship. After all, you are six years older than our Yin Guo, and our family cannot accept Yin Guo marrying a foreigner."

"Uncle, Auntie, I really want your blessings. After all, only with your blessings can Yin Guo and I be happy and sweet. So, let me first tell you what you want from me."

"Lin Yiyang, since you've immigrated to Finland, we won't ask anything more of you. But you must return to China to take charge of the East New City Club and lead it in international competitions."

"Uncle, Auntie, Meng Xiaodong has been with Yin Guo and me recently, so naturally I heard Meng Xiaodong mention this matter. So I've actually been thinking about this issue for a long time."

"Oh? So you agree?"

"No! I have decided to officially withdraw from snooker and table tennis, and will no longer participate in any domestic or international table tennis competitions."

Everyone present was shocked at this moment. They felt that this Suning in front of them was really too brave. "What?"

Su Ning wasn't the Lin Yiyang who considered table tennis his life, so he couldn't match the original drama's craziness. "I'm sure you all know that playing snooker is just a personal hobby of mine. I have my own business to run now, so I don't have the energy to participate in competitions. So, it's only a matter of time before I choose to retire." Yin Guo's father hurriedly tried to persuade them. They hadn't had time to say the most important thing yet. "Lin Yiyang, we're not forcing you to retire. You mustn't let it get to you."

"Uncle, I'm sure Auntie knows my situation best. I actually retired many years ago, but when I went to study in Finland, I needed living expenses urgently, so I chose to pick up my dream of playing snooker and winning prize money. So my energy has long been gone from snooker. Even if it weren't for the incident between Yin Guo and me, retirement was something I had decided long ago."

At this time, Wu Qian also persuaded anxiously, "But...but your master He can't accept it."

"Aunt Wu Qian, aren't you thinking too much right now? This doesn't seem like something you should be thinking about, right?"

"This……"

At this time, Wu Qian and his wife naturally heard the disgust in Su Ning's words, and they couldn't help but feel a little regretful. They didn't expect that Su Ning was still the stubborn boy he used to be.

Of course, Yin Guo on the side was also somewhat opposed to her parents' arrangement, but she did not choose to refute her parents in person. She had just decided in her heart to fully support Suning in the future.

Then Suning held a press conference and announced his retirement to the media and Waves users on the spot, stating that he would no longer participate in any international competitions.

After completely settling all the troubles, Yin Guo's first rookie open tournament began.

Thanks to the generous guidance of the snooker champion Suning, Yin Guo lived up to everyone's expectations and won the nine-ball championship directly, and then became the new nine-ball queen who was unrivaled at the time.

He Wenfeng, who had already received the news, asked He Jia to come to the UK. "Suning, I heard that you are planning to retire?"

However, Su Ning emphasized solemnly, "Jia Jie, I'm not preparing to retire, I've officially retired and will not participate in any billiards competitions in the future."

"Why? Why are you doing this?"

"I'm tired of it! I'm fed up with it!"

"you……"

"Jia Jie, please tell the teacher for me that I've grown up. Table tennis is not my life, Lin Yiyang. There are more important people in my life to protect."

"Lin Yiyang, my dad is planning to hand over the East New City Club to you. What will he do if you retire like this?"

Suning had no interest in taking over the Dongxincheng Club. "Jia Jie, just have a good time in Europe and let's not talk about other things."

"..."

In the end, He Jia left Europe with disappointment on her face, and then returned to China to tell He Wenfeng the bad news, which almost made He Wenfeng die of anger.

He Wenfeng muttered to himself, somewhat unconvinced. He naturally couldn't understand why Lin Yiyang had "changed his core". "How could it be! How could it be like this now?"

"Lin Yiyang said he's grown up now, and table tennis is no longer his life."

"Forget it! Since he is no longer on the same path with us, he can choose whatever he wants."

"..."

……

After officially giving up participating in the snooker competition, Suning really felt that he became much more relaxed and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his career.

Soon, Waves Automotive's first high-end new energy vehicle production base was established in Spain. After it went into production, it quickly occupied the European and American markets with its high-quality and design concepts.

"Yin Guo, let's get married?"

"Great! I've been waiting for you to propose to me."

"Now that my career is on track, I have time to arrange our own affairs."

"So should we hold the wedding back home, or here in Helsinki?"

"Then let's just hold two weddings. We're not short of money right now anyway, so as long as we can make our wedding a joyful one, that's all that matters."

"Suning, I'm sorry! When my parents pressured you, I should have stood up for you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have chosen to retire."

"Actually, my retirement was already decided a long time ago. Regardless of what happened with your parents this time, I no longer plan to continue competing."

"..."

"That's why I'm willing to teach Meng Xiaodong, because winning three consecutive snooker titles is already quite impressive."

After hearing that Suning had originally intended to retire from snooker, Yin Guo felt a little better. After all, she didn't want the relationship between Suning and his parents to become too strained. Instead, she began to train nine-ball even harder.

Suning became Yin Guo's personal table tennis sparring partner, which naturally helped Yin Guo's table tennis skills to improve by leaps and bounds. It was precisely Suning's "self-sacrifice" that made Yin Guo and Meng Xiaodong successful.

In fact, an athlete's career is very short. Suning had no plan to continue playing table tennis for long. This was a good opportunity to make Wu Qian feel more ashamed of himself, so that he would no longer ask about the affairs between him and Yin Guo.

Moreover, the current situation is developing in line with Suning's expectations. Wu Qian, the mother-in-law, feels guilty when facing her young son-in-law Suning, and has never made trouble in front of Yin Guo.

Of course, Yin Guo also became more and more calm. Whenever it came to matters between his parents and Suning, Yin Guo would choose to stand on Suning's side.

Moreover, those consortiums also saw Suning’s attitude in this incident and no longer tried to harass Waves endlessly, and Suning’s Waves also grew rapidly.
