CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Her style of dress is somewhat similar to Chen Shuting's, but more sophisticated.

At this moment, a pair of beautiful eyes with a sharp edge sized up Gao Qilin, and then she said to Chen Shuting with a slightly unfamiliar tone, "Sister Shuting, is this your boyfriend?"

As she spoke, Chengcheng's face showed a smile of great interest.

Chen Shuting tightened her grip on Gao Qilin's arm, a slightly provocative smile on her face: "My child's father."

"Chengcheng, I, as the older sister, have already found a good match. What about you? When will you find someone that Dad is satisfied with and willing to meet?"

Chengcheng's gaze swept towards Gao Qilin.

Young, handsome, and exuding an extraordinary aura in every gesture.

In this round... Chen Shuting won.

but.

Chengcheng quickly smiled meaningfully and said, "If you're going to find someone, of course you should find a man just like your brother-in-law. Brother-in-law, come with me."

Chengcheng revealed a slightly charming smile, and then led the way inside.

Chen Shuting frowned slightly. Gao Qilin patted Chen Shuting on the back reassuringly, and then walked towards the house with Chen Shuting.

……

soon.

Gao Qilin then met Chen Tai.

Chen Tai sat at the tea table with droopy eyelids. He didn't even look up when he heard the noise. He continued to pour hot water on his tea pet: "Why are you so late? Chengcheng and Shuting, you're arguing at the door again, aren't you?"

Chen Shuting walked forward with a smile in her high heels: "Dad, you don't know how Chengcheng and I have been since we were little. We can't stand not saying a few words to each other."

"These tea leaves are sitting here, waiting for me to brew them, right?"

Chen Taicai chuckled: "I really like the tea you brew, but it's a pity you never come."

"This is... Xiaoyue's father?"

As he spoke, Chen Tai raised his head, his eyelids still slightly drooping, looking at Gao Qilin in front of him.

Chapter Twenty-Two: Chen Tai's Probing, Using a Tiger's Skin as a Banner!

Gao Qilin nodded to Chen Tai: "Hello, Uncle Tai, I'm Gao Yue's father."

Chen Tai nodded slowly: "What a handsome man! Come and sit down."

Gao Qilin then stepped forward and sat down opposite Chen Tai.

The sound of Chen Shuting pouring tea for the two of them echoed.

Chen Tai slowly said, "I've heard Shu Ting mention you before, but this is the first time I've met you."

"I heard that as soon as you came back, you took all of Xu Jiang's projects from him?"

As he spoke, Chen Tai kept sizing up Gao Qilin, trying to gauge his abilities.

Gao Qilin instantly realized that this was Chen Tai testing him.

After all, before this, Xu Jiang was practically considered half a son by Chen Tai.

Although Xu Jiang gradually stopped taking Chen Tai seriously as he became more successful, he is still officially Chen Tai's man.

For a moment, Chen Tai had no idea that the person who had been relentlessly pursuing him recently was Xu Jiang.

So Gao Qilin just smiled faintly: "It was a mutually agreeable transaction, and it was indeed a deal with Boss Xu."

Chen Shuting, who was standing to the side, also frowned slightly.

I didn’t expect my father to test Qi Lin right away. If my father thinks that Gao Qi Lin only has the project he got from Xu Jiang, who knows what else he might be thinking.

Chen Shuting quickly laughed and said, "Dad, Qilin's abilities go far beyond this."

"Do you know about Bai Jiangbo's previous battlefield? The police were keeping a close watch on it, but Qilin still managed to buy it out. Qilin, don't you think?"

Gao Qilin nodded and said, "The project needs raw materials from the sand pit."

Chen Tai raised an eyebrow in slight surprise: "Oh, I didn't know that."

"I heard that the person who acquired the sand quarry was a mysterious figure, and the whole of Jinghai City was watching him. I never expected it to be Qi Lin."

"Just returned to Jinghai, and his abilities are extraordinary."

Gao Qilin said calmly, "Right now, in the entire Jinghai, besides our Gao family, I'm afraid only you know this."

Chen Tai chuckled: "According to Qi Lin, if the news leaks out, it will be my fault?"

Gao Qilin smiled in response: "Uncle Tai is an elder, I dare not."

Chen Tai then looked at Chen Shuting: "Shuting, Gao Yue's father is no ordinary man. In all his years in Jinghai City, there are few people who dare to speak to me like this. He is a force to be reckoned with."

Chen Shuting smiled, pursing her lips.

Although her relationship with her father wasn't deep, there was still some gratitude between them. After helping her father for so many years, she had already repaid most of that debt of gratitude.

Chen Shuting naturally sided with Gao Qilin and said with a smile, "Qilin also didn't want you to look down on him."

Chen Tai lowered his head and took a sip of tea: "I dare not look closely. Qi Lin is the most amazing rising star I have ever seen."

"Qilin, you've returned from the army. Now that you and Shuting have Xiaoyue, you're one of us."

"How much support did the military give you when you came back this time?"

Gao Qilin lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

So that's what Chen Tai had his eye on.

Chen Tai is a powerful figure in the underworld of Jinghai City, and has long-standing protective connections in the legitimate world, but only in the military…

Such a formidable force would make even Chen Tai's protectors hesitant to act rashly.

But Chen Tai lacked assistance in this regard.

Gao Qilin didn't say anything, but just smiled, took a sip of tea, and then said again, "What does Uncle Tai think?"

"What Xu Jiang wants is not something I can give him on my own."

They're just using someone else's name to make a big deal out of nothing!

It's a traditional skill of the Gao family, but Gao Qiqiang is content with the small benefits he gets from the neighbors and the influence of An Xin and An Changlin behind him.

But Gao Qilin's satisfaction goes far beyond that.

He wanted to use the tiger's skin... to expose the more mysterious and tougher military!

Thinking this, Gao Qilin's expression relaxed considerably. He crossed his hands and placed them on his crossed legs: "Just yesterday, I visited my old superior's comrade-in-arms, Meng Dehai from the Municipal Bureau."

"Meng Dehai rose to the position of bureau chief in less than three years after leaving the military. If he had stayed in the military... Uncle Tai can probably guess what his status would be, right?"

Chen Tai remained silent for a long time, his eyelids lowered and his eyes flickering.

After a long pause, he slowly raised his head and smiled, "I could have guessed."

"It seems that our Shuting has found herself a good husband."

Chen Shuting smiled and said, "My father taught me well, so naturally I have good taste."

Chen Tai nodded, then looked at Gao Qilin again.

"Qilin, I heard that your name is not among the senior executives of Gao's Real Estate. It seems that you are still behind the scenes."

"In that case, would you be interested in getting a position within the Construction Group, so you can do more favors for Gao's Real Estate in the future?"

Chapter Twenty-Three: Show no mercy, let him be buried!

As Chen Tai finished speaking, Chen Shuting paused in her tea-pouring motion, and Chengcheng almost held her breath.

But Gao Qilin just smiled faintly.

"Uncle Tai, thank you for your kind words."

"However, Gao's Real Estate is just starting out. Although I am not on the list of senior executives, there are still many things that I need to handle personally. I am afraid I will not have this honor in the short term."

Gao Qilin didn't make any definitive statements, leaving some room for Chen Tai to maneuver.

Chen Tai put down his teacup, seemingly lost in thought.

Not for now, but I still have that thought.

Chen Shuting teased, "Dad, it seems Qilin doesn't want to be a live-in son-in-law. He still wants to make a name for himself."

Chen Tai squinted and smiled, "It's a good thing for a man to have his own career."

In short, her son-in-law already has such grown children, it's impossible for him to turn against her. Gao Qilin's backing is unfathomable... Let's observe and see.

……

After the meeting, Chen Shuting and Gao Qilin left Chen Tai's home.

Sitting in the car on the way back, Chen Shuting casually smoothed the wrinkles on Gao Qilin's collar: "Dad asked you to go help out at the construction site, why didn't you go?"

Gao Qilin simply smiled and reached out to rub Chen Shuting's hand: "Shuting, I want to give you a peaceful life."

“You’ve had an uneasy life with your godfather in the past. Now I’m going to lead you down a clean and honest path. Isn’t that better?”

As Gao Qilin finished speaking.

Chen Shuting's heart skipped a beat!
