Meng Wanyu released her grip and stepped back a few paces.
She admitted that at that moment, she had a selfish motive in mind: to fulfill her sister's wishes.
after all,
This is her older sister, who has been sharing everything with her since she was little.
"I need to touch up my makeup. See you at the event."
Meng Wanyu got up and went straight out the door.
……
The second round of the competition began soon.
Before the match began, Lin Chen's elderly father sat in the VIP seat that had originally been reserved for Lu Chengzhou.
When Lin Chen saw that his own father had actually come to support him, he was so frightened that his limbs went weak.
You should know that his father often said, "Playing with things will ruin your ambition!"
That means his father hates seeing him do things that have nothing to do with studying.
What's going on?
Lin Chen quickly sent a message to his father's assistant, questioning him about the reason.
His assistant quickly replied, "The matter happened suddenly, young master, please pray for your good fortune!"
"Gan."
Lin Chen's grudge notebook will undoubtedly have another name added to it.
However, he soon began to think of a solution.
After a hasty thought, he tapped his palm:
"Oh, right! Lu Chengzhou! Tell my dad later that I was playing for Lu Chengzhou!"
"But why did Lu Chengzhou want me to play in his place?"
"Oh right, let's just say that Lu Chengzhou thinks he's ugly and is too ashamed to face the audience..."
Lin Chen thought his idea was excellent.
I felt much more relaxed for a moment.
Sitting in the shadows, Lu Chengzhou saw him looking worried one moment and smiling the next, and always felt that he wasn't up to any good.
However, the match had already begun, and he had no time to think about anything else, so he had to go on.
Let's win this game and then talk about the rest of the night.
……
One hour later.
Lu Chengzhou has completed his proxy gaming task for today.
When he got off the chair, Lin Chen was already waiting for him at the door.
As usual, we'll drag him to a small dark room, close the door, and then have a proper discussion!
Lin Chen has plenty of money, and Lu Chengzhou needs money.
So, as long as he gets enough money, there's no reason for Lu Chengzhou not to help him with this favor.
As it turned out, Lin Chen's approach was absolutely correct.
Upon hearing about this great opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes, Lu Chengzhou immediately smiled.
"Brother Lin, I wouldn't dare offend your father."
As he spoke, Lu Chengzhou made that habitual gesture of asking for more money.
Lin Chen took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying, "Five thousand."
"Brother Lin, we've been through thick and thin together. You can't push me out to take the fall for your own safety, can you?"
"I'll add another five thousand."
"Alright, Brother Lin, for the sake of our brotherhood, I have no choice but to face Uncle Lin's wrath for you."
Lu Chengzhou sighed as he spoke.
Pretend to be in a heavy mood.
"Remember to transfer the money to me."
173. Security guard, where is the security guard?
Was Lu Chengzhou panicking?
He remained completely calm.
As someone who is very familiar with the original plot and the various characters, he knows how to talk to Master Lin in order to please him and extricate himself unscathed.
Lin Chen took him to the VIP area.
He was on tenterhooks the whole way.
Although his facial expression remained relatively calm, his slightly trembling fingers betrayed him.
Seeing his reaction, Lu Chengzhou thought to himself that the original story really hadn't lied to him.
This kid's biggest enemy isn't Su Qiaoman, but his father.
Even after his death, Old Master Lin's authority continued to influence Lin Chen.
Not to mention, at this very moment, Old Master Lin is still full of energy.
……
"Lin Chen, tell me, what happened?"
With just one look from Grandpa Lin, Lin Chen almost called him "Dad".
He quickly gave Lu Chengzhou a meaningful look, hoping that Lu Chengzhou could play a role.
however,
Before Lu Chengzhou could even speak, Master Lin recognized him.
"Hey kid, you look kind of familiar."
"Is his name Lu Chengzhou?"
“I remember you were my son’s English tutor.”
Lu Chengzhou nodded.
Seeing that he had admitted it, Master Lin patted the chair, gesturing for him to come and sit down.
Master Lin admired those who studied diligently.
These people, let alone playing games, even if they were fighting, he was willing to listen to their grievances.
Lin Chen also wanted to sit down, but unfortunately, he was glared at by the old man and refused.
This hopeless piece of trash, you think you can sit on it?
"You were full of energy when you were playing games, but now you're not? Stand still and reflect on your actions!"
"Dad, there are strangers everywhere here, please give me some face..."
"Shut up."
"Ok."
Lin Chen lowered his head helplessly.
Lu Chengzhou said, "I must first congratulate Mr. Lin on successfully acquiring Comet Entertainment, this lucrative piece of meat."
Lin Chen: "???"
No, this conversation is going in the wrong direction.
He sent Lu Chengzhou to talk about the substitute player issue, to make him take the blame!
There was no intention to let Lu Chengzhou get connected with his father.
Master Lin smiled and said, "It seems you're not the kind of good student who's oblivious to the world around you and only focuses on studying the classics."
Lu Chengzhou smiled slightly: "Master Lin must have his eye on the entertainment sector when he acquired Comet Entertainment."
"In fact, Comet Entertainment has performed very well in recent years. The team is full of young people with ideas. With their help, you will definitely be able to successfully expand into new markets..."
Lu Chengzhou spoke slowly and deliberately.
What he said was exactly what was written in the original work.
Wouldn't that perfectly align with Master Lin's ideas?
Master Lin listened to his comments, nodding occasionally in agreement.
Seeing his father's expression of being successfully persuaded, Lin Chen gasped.
Good guy!
This Lu Chengzhou is really good at bluffing.
He actually turned his gaming habit into a way to expand into new markets!
Lu Chengzhou continued to talk eloquently.
"You should believe that after this gaming competition, Comet Entertainment's stock will continue to appreciate."
"By the way, this was all Young Master Lin's idea."
"I once shortsightedly advised Young Master Lin not to waste his precious study time on such things."
"However, Young Master Lin told me that he wants to become a qualified successor as soon as possible and share the burden on your shoulders."
……
After a half-hour-long charade, Mr. Lin's gaze towards his son became much more respectful.
