Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

"Brother Lu, I want to hear from you, has my family really gone bankrupt?"

"They went bankrupt."

Lu Chengzhou rubbed his temples, looking like he had a headache.

"I know the news of the bankruptcy is still like a dream to you, but bankruptcy is bankruptcy. People have to learn to accept reality and look forward."

Lin Chen's expression was unpredictable, shifting between light and dark.

Lu Chengzhou continued, "So, you started to doubt our brotherhood because of a strange text message?"

Lin Chen's eyes darted away, but he didn't say anything.

If he had absolutely no doubts, then Lu Chengzhou would have to think that he was unworthy of being the male lead.

Lu Chengzhou was still pleased to see that he had some doubts.

but……

That's all for now.

"Lin Chen, since I've helped you so much, and you still doubt me, then please leave. Our brotherhood ends here. Consider it my mistake to think of you as my brother."

"No! Brother Lu, don't say that!"

Lu Chengzhou's sudden resolute decision threw Lin Chen into a panic.

He quickly blocked the number and repeatedly swore to Lu Chengzhou that he would never listen to other people's gossip again.

Lu Chengzhou sighed, putting on a weary expression.

He patted him on the shoulder.

"It's getting late, you should go back to sleep."

280. You've miscalculated if you think you can threaten Lu Chengzhou.

Lin Chen hesitated, his face full of guilt.

However, Lu Chengzhou didn't give him any more time to swear oaths and directly asked him to leave the room.

after all……

He really didn't think he was good at acting.

If he keeps keeping a straight face, he might burst out laughing.

"It seems the plan needs to be changed slightly."

Lu Chengzhou lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.

"We can't let Master Lin return to Yicheng openly and honestly, otherwise Lin Chen will feel like he's been tricked."

"This would be detrimental to my brotherhood with him, and also to the relationship between Master Lin and his father."

"However, on the other hand..."

"If Mr. Lin can take this opportunity to step back from the limelight and secretly help Lin Chen gradually take control of the family business and regain his position as the richest man, that would be a completely different experience."

Lin Chen is actually a very career-oriented man.

However, because his protagonist aura is so strong, he treats building his career like a joke, without any sense of tension.

In just a few weeks, he amassed tens of millions in assets. This is something that most people can do.

Mr. Lin built such a large fortune, but he suffered a lot and took many detours.

In comparison, Lin Chen is truly cheating.

Lu Chengzhou let out a sigh of relief.

Sit up.

He took out his phone and sent a text message to Mr. Lin, explaining his thoughts.

The old man certainly wouldn't reply immediately, and Lu Chengzhou wasn't expecting him to.

After putting down his phone, Lu Chengzhou wrote down the number he had just memorized in his notes.

"You think you can ruin my big plans? I'll have to see what kind of person you are."

As Lu Chengzhou thought this, a dark glint flashed in his eyes.

Yes, he has always maintained a persona of not competing or vying for anything.

However, this does not mean that he will allow others to disrupt his comfort.

Having finally gained control of the situation, he was determined to maintain it until he could retire successfully!

If necessary, he wouldn't hesitate to take action and eliminate a few people who were standing in his way.

……

Yicheng.

The tallest building in the city center.

A young woman is standing with her arms crossed, gazing at the scenery outside the window.

The cell phone on the table started buzzing.

She turned around and walked quickly to the desk.

I picked up my phone and glanced at it.

It was a text message sent to her by Yuan Qing.

"Xiao Yan, I heard from Atai that you've returned to China? It's good that you're back. Just stay put from now on and don't do anything foolish again."

Upon seeing Yuan Qing's name, her gaze softened.

He moved his fingers and replied to the other party: "Brother Yuanqing, don't worry, I won't do it again."

"Hmm! That's good. There are plenty of men in the world; I can introduce you to someone if you need one."

Upon seeing this sentence, a hint of displeasure appeared on the young woman's pretty face.

She stopped replying and just angrily threw down her phone.

"Idiot Yuan Qing, do you really think I like those ordinary mortals?"

The person hidden in her heart was clearly that idiot.

Why can't he understand her feelings?

but!

Actually...

Yuan Qing knew this.

However, he had no interest in this willful and capricious childhood sweetheart.

He was kind to her purely because her father had treated him well back then.

Now, not wanting to offend his childhood sweetheart, he can only pretend to be clueless.

Xiao Yan stood by the window for a while longer.

Suddenly, I remembered the two text messages I had sent to Lin Chen.

So they turned back.

Pick up your phone.

No reply.

Lin Chen is more composed than she imagined.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan clicked her tongue.

"Hmph, it seems I'll have to give you more hints."

Her desire to deal with the Lin family was not a spur-of-the-moment decision.

She was furious that her brother Yuan Qing was almost bankrupted by him and Lu Chengzhou.

Originally, she didn't know how to help Yuan Qing, until a colleague in the United States told her about her chance encounter with Master Lin, which gave her some clues.

She gradually uncovered the fact that the Lin family had not gone bankrupt.

It must be said that Master Lin is quite resourceful.

Xiao Yan had only ever seen one person who could fake bankruptcy so convincingly.

"In a short period of time, they transferred and sold off so many assets, and then invested in a number of emerging industries. The Lin family's bankruptcy not only did not cause them any losses, but actually made them hundreds of millions of yuan in profit."

"Master Lin is still a difficult person to deal with."

"The only way is to start with his good-for-nothing son."

Xiao Yan closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.

Most of the thick stack of investigation materials she had were about the Lin family.

The card on top is Lu Chengzhou's.

Lu Chengzhou is a person who can be described as...

Just like his profile card, it was unremarkable.

He has no special family background or huge assets.

However, he was able to become the agent owner of Yicheng Winery shortly after meeting Meng Yong, and bring the once loss-making winery back to normal!

This is quite a strange thing.

She didn't think this was Lu Chengzhou's strength.

She preferred to believe that Meng Yong had been bewitched by Lu Chengzhou and was possessed by an evil spirit.

"It seems I might need to find an opportunity to get in touch with Lu Chengzhou."

Logically speaking, given Lin Chen's personality, he should have made a move on Lu Chengzhou immediately after those two text messages from her.

But there was nothing.
