The Way of Heaven Rewards Diligence in Film and Television
Chapter 31 Going to Lü Wei's House
No? Lin Yang was surprised. Could it be that only the major shareholder and the chairman could arrange for their daughter to act as chairman?
"The previous chairman granted voting rights to my father," Lü Wei explained casually, then asked directly, "Lin Yang, you have a great talent for investment. Would you be interested in becoming the chairman of Xuyang Investment?"
"Me? Chairman? Are you alright?" Lin Yang was completely bewildered, then didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I've already said that I'm acting as chairman. You should know that I don't usually come here. After all, I'll be inheriting my father's group company in the future, and I don't have the energy to manage so many companies," Lu Wei's words left Lin Yang speechless.
Go back to inherit the family fortune? Too many companies to manage? These are truly the kinds of worries only a rich heiress has!
"Why did you choose me? What does President Lü mean? Are you and your daughter overestimating me? Such a big investment company... Sister, I'm not even thirty years old yet!" Lin Yang couldn't understand the other person's thought process.
"Yes, you'll be thirty in a little over a year," Lü Wei said with a sigh.
"Lin Yang, let me be frank with you! I need to get married before my dad will hand over the family business to me. If you marry me, you'll be in charge of Xuyang Investment, and my dad will nominate you as the company's chairman at the board meeting."
"Marry into the family? Miss, you must be joking with me," Lin Yang shook his head and said.
"Just come with me to get a marriage certificate. It won't have much of an impact on you. I won't let you break up with your girlfriend," Lu Wei said.
"This is ridiculous!" Lin Yang could hardly believe his ears. Did he think they were filming a short drama? Was this something a normal person would think of? Are rich people really this good at this?
"You won't agree?" Lü Wei asked.
"This is ridiculous," Lin Yang shook his head repeatedly, "We've never even met before, and you want me to marry you on our first meeting? Do you think that's normal?"
"I'm not joking with you. How about we go to my house tonight and meet my parents?" Lü Wei said seriously.
"Meet the parents? No, why are you in such a hurry?" Lin Yang was increasingly confused and exasperated. "Miss, you don't actually have a terminal illness, do you? Wait, if you do have a terminal illness, wouldn't my family fortune just go to me for nothing after we marry?"
"Don't make wild guesses. I just need to find someone to marry," Lu Wei said, her face slightly darkening.
"What if I refuse? Will you let me leave Xuyang Investment?" Lin Yang asked.
"You can work here for the rest of your life if you want," Lü Wei said, too lazy to waste any more words with Lin Yang. "Go ahead and get busy! Remember to come home with me after get off work..."
"No, Miss, are you trying to force a son-in-law into a marriage? Are you forcing a duck onto a shelf?" Lin Yang was speechless.
Lu Wei rolled her eyes at him and said, "My dad wants to see you. He has other things to discuss."
"What can't be said at the company, why do we have to go to your house?" Lin Yang couldn't help but mutter suspiciously, almost suspecting that she was trying to set him up.
"You'll know when you meet my dad," Lü Wei said, taking a deep breath to suppress her anger.
"Alright," Lin Yang could only nod. He was barefoot, what did he have to be afraid of? He really didn't believe that this father and daughter could eat him up.
After Lin Yang left, Lü Wei took out her phone and made a call: "Hey, Dad, I've already talked to him. He agreed to come over for dinner tonight. You can tell him then!"
Back in the office, after a somewhat absent-minded day at get off work, Lin Yang quickly slipped away to the underground parking garage. Once in his blue BMW, he hesitated, feeling conflicted.
With the roar of its engine, a green Porsche 718 pulled up and blocked Lin Yang's car. The passenger window rolled down, and Lü Wei, who was in the driver's seat, called out to Lin Yang, "Get out, get in!"
Reluctantly getting out of the car and into Lü Wei's, Lin Yang couldn't help but ask, "You like green that much?"
"You're not going to marry me, so why are you making such a fuss?" Lü Wei rolled her eyes at Lin Yang.
"No, that's not what I meant..." Lin Yang quickly said, but then realized his mistake and didn't bother to say anything more. Indeed, what color someone else liked was none of his business.
Lü Wei drives very aggressively; once on the road, she speeds ahead of everyone else, with other cars swerving to avoid her wherever she goes.
Moreover, Lin Yang discovered that she was a very good driver. With the system's enhancement, Lin Yang's driving skills were probably not as smooth as hers if he were to drive this 718, which he had never driven before.
Perhaps it was because Lin Yang's refusal angered the young lady that she remained almost completely silent, immersing herself in the high-speed acceleration, which made Lin Yang a little nervous, fearing that she would drive the car into the air.
More than half an hour later, in a quiet villa community, a green Porsche 718 smoothly and effortlessly came to a stop in an outdoor parking space.
"By the way, is it inappropriate for me to come empty-handed on my first visit?" Lin Yang suddenly asked after getting out of the car, which made Lü Wei laugh.
"It's alright, the host won't mind if a child who doesn't know any better comes to visit," Lü Wei said with a smile as she walked directly towards the villa.
Lin Yang, who was quite taken aback by her words, sent a message to Li Xiaoyue before following her toward the brightly lit, luxurious villa gate.
Inside the villa, the light from the chandelier illuminated the living room, which was larger than the total area of Lin Yang's house.
"Xiao Yang is here? Oh my, you've grown so much! Come in, let Auntie take a look," a middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa hurriedly got up to greet Lin Yang as soon as he walked in.
Seeing her smiling and enthusiastic expression, Lin Yang couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, have you seen me before?"
"Of course! When you were little, Auntie held you in her arms!" Lu Wei's mother said with a smile.
"You held me? Auntie, you wouldn't happen to be a doctor, would you?" Lin Yang asked with a surprised smile.
"Cough..." Mr. Lü, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, choked.
Lu Wei's mother, her expression slightly pausing, smiled wryly and said, "Xiao Yang, it's normal that you don't recognize your auntie, after all, it's been so many years. But your Uncle Lu and I were old friends with your parents, and we even arranged a marriage between you and Weiwei when you were little!"
"Huh? I haven't heard them mention that!" Lin Yang was a little confused. What was going on? Was it a system vulnerability? Or a hidden perk of the system?
"It was just a joke back then," said Lü Wei's mother with a smile, inviting Lin Yang to come in and sit down.
"Mr. Lü," Lin Yang greeted Lü Wei's father, Lü Yiming, with a slightly reserved demeanor.
"Just call me Uncle Lü, please sit down!" Lü Yiming was very polite, and when he looked at Lin Yang who had sat down, his expression was somewhat complicated.
"Come on, Xiaoyang, have some tea!" Lin Yang was flattered by the tea that Lu Wei's mother poured for him, and at the same time, he was filled with doubt. How could his adoptive parents in this world be old friends with Lu Yiming and his wife?
Meanwhile, Lü Wei, who had changed into loose, casual home clothes, came downstairs: "Mom, is dinner ready? I'm starving."
"Okay, let's eat first then," Lu Wei's mother said, seeing that the aunties in the restaurant had almost finished preparing the food. She then invited Lin Yang to come and eat.
The dining table was quite large and exuded luxury, with a sumptuous spread of dishes that looked and smelled delicious.
"Xiao Yang, don't be shy! Eat whatever you like," Lu Wei's mother called out to Lin Yang.
"Aunt Li, this lion's head meatball is a bit too strong in flavor. Next time, make it a little milder," Lü Wei said to the aunt who brought the soup over.
The aunt had just nodded in agreement when Lü Yiming couldn't help but say, "I think it tastes pretty good..."
"Dad, you're getting old. Eating lighter foods won't do you any harm," Lü Wei said.
Hearing his daughter say this, Lü Yiming didn't say anything more.
"You know your father and I are getting old. When will we be able to hold our grandchildren?" Lu Wei's mother couldn't help but ask.
"Cough..." Lin Yang choked while drinking soup.
