Since it was the Lin Group who wanted to arrange the media, the reviews naturally leaned towards the Lin Group. Lin Wanli had expected this. However, any means to suppress Lin Wanli would turn into a boomerang in the end, and the boomerang would be fatal.
It was raining heavily in the morning, and the view was dim, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of the media. They entered the Chinese Chamber of Commerce early and waited for today’s big show.
In fact, they already knew that Lin Wanli would definitely lose. The media didn’t quite understand why Lin Wanli still dared to show up.
The Chairman and Secretary Tao were chatting in the office with his wife. Compared to the impatient reporters, the three of them were obviously relaxed and calm.
Secretary General Tao and Mingsha had seen Lin Wanli’s killing spree overseas, so they were more excited at this moment, especially this time. The Lin Group had made it bigger than a birthday banquet. One could imagine how powerful Lin Wanli’s counterattack and the effect of the rebound would be.
“Let me tell you something else. Wanli will be bringing her mother over today, so the effect of this devastating battle will be doubled,” said Secretary Tao as he hugged his wife.
Mingsha widened her eyes and chuckled, “This Old Madam Lin is really ruthless. However, Wanli’s mother lived in seclusion for 20 years, would she have any combat power?”
“Does she need combat power? Ten more pairs of the Ye family’s mother and daughter would not be enough to deal with Lin Wanli.”
Outside the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, the rain was like a curtain.
Lin Group’s luxury car had already stopped by the flower bed of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
Ye Zhenzhen, who was wearing a long black dress, got out of the car first. She held up an umbrella and helped the old lady out, shielding her under the umbrella. Immediately after, Ye Weiyin and Xu Menglan got out of the car and followed behind Old Madam Lin.
The Lin Group had the air of a wealthy family.
However, at this moment, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the Lin Group’s car. The Lin Group stopped and saw Yan Qiu get out of the car with an umbrella. She helped Lin Wanli, who was wearing an ink-wash off-shoulder dress, out of the car. They thought that it was just the master and servant, but they did not expect that after Lin Wanli stepped aside, Lin Xueyi, who was wearing an apricot embroidered cheongsam, also got out of the car.
As soon as she stepped out of the car, Ye Weiyin and her daughter frowned in shock-
Because Lin Xueyi was used to keeping a low profile, her clothes were very simple and clean. However, at this moment, Lin Xueyi seemed to have lifted her dusty shell, revealing a fresh and bright pearl. In addition to her original elegance, a noble aura assaulted their senses.
They did not expect Lin Wanli to bring Lin Xueyi along.
Ye Zhenzhen wanted to mock her, but Lin Wanli did not take Ye Zhenzhen seriously at all. She only glanced at Ye Zhenzhen and then at Xu Menglan, who was supporting Ye Weiyin. Then, she walked forward with Lin Xueyi.
Lin Xueyi, who was usually gentle, was now cold and aloof. She did not even look at the Ye family’s mother and daughter. Under the protection of Yan Qiu, the mother and daughter walked confidently in front of Old Madam Lin and entered the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
“Aren’t Xueyi and the others too rude? They just walked in front of you and don’t even know how to respect their elders?” Ye Weiyin frowned and said angrily in front of Old Madam Lin.
However, the old lady’s reaction was average. It should be said that ever since Lin Xueyi met Qin Huaijing, she had not seen Lin Xueyi like this for a long time. The mother and daughter pair’s condescending appearance actually had Lin Xueyi’s past elegance. Ye Weiyin and her daughter would never have the confidence to show this attitude.
‘Mom, don’t be angry. It’s the last time we’ll meet anyway.” Ye Zhenzhen comforted her mother, “I’ll send them off later. It’s a token of our appreciation for knowing each other for so many years.”
“Alright.”
Xu Menglan stood at the side and silently served the three of them. She had been expressing her disdain in her heart. Especially after seeing Lin Xueyi being transformed by Lin Wanli, she felt that the Ye family’s mother and daughter were not only inferior in terms of skills but also this showed the difference between a phoenix and a chicken. She even hoped that the media could take a photo of the two of them meeting. If they posted it online, the visual impact would definitely be shocking.
Soon, both parties entered the conference room of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. This time, not only were the members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce present, but there were also reporters surrounding the room.
Compared to the displeasure and disdain that the various company heads showed to Lin Wanli last time, they were much more peaceful and respectful this time. There were even looks of admiration and worship. Therefore, they were very disgusted and conflicted with the Lin Group’s actions.
After everyone took their seats, the tense atmosphere began to rise.
Ye Weiyin and her daughter stared at Lin Wanli, but Lin Wanli was chatting with Secretary Tao with a relaxed expression.
‘Adulterous couple!’ Ye Zhenzhen cursed in her heart, ‘I’ll let you know how powerful I am later.’
However, Ye Zhenzhen did not expect Mingsha to be outside the door. She crossed her arms and looked at Ye Zhenzhen’s face with great interest. She let out a laugh.
She seemed to have seen Ye Zhenzhen in a hotel room with a man…?
Things suddenly became more interesting.
“You’re here too.” After Old Madam Lin sat down, she looked at Lin Xueyi immediately and said, “This shouldn’t be something you can get involved in.”
Lin Wanli looked at Lin Xueyi and was about to defend her when Lin Xueyi stopped her.
Lin Xueyi smiled and replied, “Old Madam Lin, you’re thinking too much. I’m just here as an audience. You invited so many people, but you won’t let others watch the show?”
“You don’t even know how to call me Mom?”
“Your biological child is by your side. We’re wild, so we won’t ask to be hated,” replied Lin Xueyi calmly. She had tried to figure out Lin Wanli’s way of speaking. She did not expect that this feeling of borrowing strength to fight strengtn was really sausrymg.
“Xueyi, why are you…”
However, Ye Weiyin was interrupted by Lin Xueyi, “Please call me by my full name.”
Ye Weiyin’s face instantly turned red.
“You don’t know how to appreciate favors. Chairman, since the time is up, we can begin.” Old Madam Lin twirled the ring on her finger as she spoke to the Chairman, looking rather nonchalant. She continued, “It seems like Lin Wanli didn’t get the contract with the Yue Group?”
“Although I had already guessed that this would be the outcome, I didn’t expect Lin Wanli to be so reckless and increase the bet. We agreed that if she can’t get the contract, she will get out of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Since the bet has doubled, I can also reasonably make my request to make her disappear from Jinchuan completely.”
“I believe that my request is very reasonable. Lin Wanli, you know very well whether you have something in your stomach or not. You won’t be able to go far by relying on evil methods, so no one can save you this time.” After she finished speaking, Old Madam Lin looked at the reporters outside and said, “Take a good picture. Lin Wanli doesn’t have the contract in her hands. Don’t give anyone a chance to deny it.”
“Yes, Old Madam.”
After she finished speaking, the reporters at the scene started to take photos of Lin Wanli..
