My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Fang Shu smiled, but she still felt a little guilty and could only secretly vow to protect Lin Jun's safety.

Lin Jun noticed Fang Shu's guilt, so he took her hand and said, "You've done more than enough for me, and given so much. You're an outstanding partner and wife!"

Fang Shu blushed slightly upon hearing the last few words, and replied, though her words didn't reflect her true feelings: "I've already said it before, I won't marry you!"

Just as Lin Jun was about to make a joke at Fang Shu's office, there was a knock on the door.

Yan Ran walked in, a hint of surprise on her face. "President Lin, Fu Yukang, the deputy general manager of Dongyuan Group and Zhu Dongyuan's special assistant, has come to visit you. Would you like to see him?"

Lin Jun and Fang Shu were equally surprised.

Why are Zhu Dongyuan's people coming to see me at this time?

There must be some ulterior motive behind this; we can't ignore it!

So Lin Jun nodded slightly: "Have him come to my office—no, to the reception room!"

Yan Ran nodded and left.

Fang Shu immediately said, "I'll go with you!"

Lin Jun pondered for a moment, then declined: "No need. He wouldn't dare do anything to me, and besides, you are my biggest trump card. I don't want to be so conspicuous!"

Fang Shu thought about it for a moment and concluded that Zhu Dongyuan's people were indeed not that arrogant, so she agreed.

Lin Jun arrived at the reception room, where Fu Yukang was already there.

This is a young man around 30 years old, very capable but slightly overweight, with a restrained shrewdness in his eyes and brows.

Because he was about the same age as Lin Jun, Lin Jun could tell at a glance that this person had also experienced a lot, otherwise he wouldn't be so reserved at his age.

This also shows that this person is not easy to deal with!

Yan Ran hurriedly introduced, "President Fu, this is our President Lin!"

Fu Yukang shook hands and exchanged pleasantries with Lin Jun in a respectful but not arrogant manner, while Yan Ran poured tea for the two of them.

Lin Jun noticed that although Fu Yukang wasn't staring at Yan Ran, a greedy glint flashed in his eyes when he looked at her.

After Fu Yukang sat down, Lin Jun asked, "I wonder what brings you here today, Mr. Fu?"

Fu Yukang didn't answer Lin Jun immediately, but instead glanced at Yan Ran: "President Lin, can we talk privately?"

Lin Jun nodded to Yan Ran, who then got up to say goodbye and closed the door to the reception room as she left.

Lin Jun smiled and said, "President Fu, is there anything you'd like to discuss now?"

Fu Yukang smiled slightly and said, "President Lü, I know that both your family and your career have undergone great changes recently. I extend my condolences to President Lin!"

Lin Jun's expression remained unchanged, but he cursed inwardly. This wasn't a consolation; it was a clear provocation.

However, Lin Jun didn't care too much, because everything was still unresolved and the final winner was yet to be determined.

Only when Zhu Dongyuan has paid a huge price and only obtained an empty shell of Fengshu Technology will it be possible to determine who the real winner is.

Seeing that Lin Jun only smiled and remained silent, Fu Yukang continued, "President Lin, let's not beat around the bush. Although this is our first meeting, I can tell at a glance that President Lin is a very straightforward person who doesn't want to waste words. So I'll just say what I have to say, and I hope President Lin won't mind."

Lin Jun then replied, "President Fu, please feel free to speak up. I won't mind!"

Fu Yukang smiled and continued, "Regarding tomorrow's auction, in my personal opinion, to maximize Mr. Lin's interests, an auction shouldn't be held. For example, I'm here today representing Mr. Zhu to meet with Mr. Lin and we can directly negotiate a price!"

Lin Jun deliberately laughed loudly: "President Fu, what you're saying is really a bit confusing to me. Why do you say that your method is in my best interest? Since there are so many potential buyers, I should definitely choose the highest bidder; that's in my best interest!"

Fu Yukang had anticipated Lin Jun's reaction, so he wasn't too surprised: "President Lin, after hearing my explanation, you'll definitely change your mind!"

Lin Jun neither confirmed nor denied this, and did not respond.

Fu Yukang didn't feel offended: "President Lin, in everything we do, we must consider both immediate and long-term interests. Regarding the auction of Fengshu Technology shares, President Lin should especially consider the long-term benefits..."

Lin Jun suddenly flew into a rage, interrupting Fu Yukang: "You're telling me that long-term interests should be considered in the share auction? What long-term interests do I need to consider? My Fengshu Technology is about to be lost, and you're telling me to consider long-term interests! Am I saying your brain is structured differently from others? Or is Zhu Dongyuan's brain structured differently from ordinary people?"

Fu Yukang's expression darkened upon being suddenly confronted: "Since President Lin wants to know what I mean by long-term benefits, I can discuss it with you. There's no need for you to be so agitated. The long-term benefits I'm referring to are that you can use the money from selling your shares to continue your entrepreneurial endeavors..."

Lin Jun burst into unrestrained laughter, his smile filled with sarcasm.

Fu Yukang's expression darkened further: "President Lin, what does that smile mean?"

Lin Jun scoffed, "Don't you understand what my smile means? I really didn't expect you to threaten me like this. Who do you think you are? And who is your boss, Zhu Dongyuan? You actually dared to threaten me that I'll never succeed in my future business ventures. Don't you find that ridiculous?"

Fu Yukang's face turned even uglier, and his expression even became somewhat distorted.

Lin Jun became increasingly agitated as he spoke: "I've been threatened by many people in my life, all sorts of threats, but today's threat is the most ridiculous one I've ever felt. What? I can't start a business even with the money? Is your boss really so all-powerful that the entire planet belongs to him?"

"If you don't know what you are, you can go back and tell your boss to get a mirror and look at himself. If there's no mirror, there's always a pee! If there's no pee, then help your boss pee so he can see himself!"

Fu Yukang, trembling from the retort, said, "Mr. Lin, you're really asking for trouble! Don't forget that the reason your auction was able to take place was because our Dongyuan Group wanted to buy your shares. If our Dongyuan Group withdraws now, let's see how your auction goes on!"

Lin Jun responded dismissively, "You can withdraw or not, I've never begged you to buy my shares. You're the ones who've been eyeing me all along. Don't think I don't know about your underhanded dealings..."

Fu Yukang was thoroughly provoked by Lin Jun's self-proclaimed "father": "President Lin, watch your manners. Don't use foul language, and don't try to take advantage of me!"

Lin Jun sneered, "Then I'll tell you one thing: there's nothing to talk about between us. If your Dongyuan Group wants shares in my Fengshu Technology, then come and participate in the auction. If not..."

Lin Jun paused here, a cold glint in his eyes, and his tone suddenly changed: "I'm informing you now that your Dongyuan Group's invitation to participate in the auction is cancelled!"
