Chapter 318 Roar, the first life of being a sister to Muchen
Old Man Qin, leaning on a cane, stood by the French window, overlooking the city lights. His back was more hunched than usual, as if he had aged ten years overnight.
Qin's father pushed the door open and walked in. His suit was wrinkled, his tie hung loosely around his neck, and his face looked gloomy.
Mr. Qin didn't turn around and said in a low voice: "Three billion, just gone like that?"
Qin's father's voice was hoarse: "Dad, we still have a chance to turn the tables, as long as..."
Old Master Qin spun around abruptly, slamming his cane down on the floor. "A comeback?! The bank is going to freeze our assets tomorrow! Those old foxes on the board of directors are already contacting the Lin family about a takeover!"
Father Qin clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white: "The Lin family... they have been plotting against us from the beginning!"
Old Master Qin sneered, "Calculating? You're just stupid! You even trust the data on the tender document? What did I teach you back then? Business is like a battlefield. You have to have a backup plan for every move!"
Dad Qin looked at Old Man Qin and finally chose to remain silent.
Outside the window, the neon lights were still flickering, but the lights of the Qin Building seemed to be swallowed up by the darkness bit by bit.
Qin's father said in a low voice: "Dad, what should we do now?"
Old Master Qin slowly closed his eyes: "Let's cut off our arms and survive... Selling the mining rights in Southeast Asia to the Lin family will at least preserve our domestic base."
Father Qin raised his head suddenly: "But that's our last bargaining chip! If..."
Old Master Qin interrupted him, his tone weary: "There are no ifs. Remember today's lesson. As long as the Qin family is still there, there is still a chance... but the prerequisite is that you have to learn to 'wait'."
"What are you waiting for?" Qin's father looked at his father in confusion.
Old Master Qin looked at Qin's father with a look of disappointment: "What are you waiting for? Of course, we're waiting for that girl from the Lin family to marry in! Wait until she gets seriously ill after protecting He Yang from disaster! The Lin family only has this one daughter. I don't believe Lin Guodong is willing to hand over his property to someone else."
When Qin's father heard this, the light in his eyes returned: "Yes, sooner or later, this money will belong to our Qin family."
Long before the two families got married, Qin's father followed the old man's instructions and thoroughly investigated the Lin family.
Mr. Lin of the Lin Group was a rare upstart who rose from humble beginnings without resorting to extravagant extravagance. He and his wife had a harmonious relationship, no extramarital affairs, and no illegitimate children.
The relatives in my hometown are not very close, so it is impossible for me to hand over the family property to my children and nephews.
The father and son of the Qin family are still here, dreaming of wipe out the entire family.
Miss Lin and Muchen here have already met up with Sirong in the capital.
Miss Lin sat cross-legged on the carpet, gripping the game controller. On the screen, her character was knocking out her opponent with a beautiful combo. She raised her eyebrows triumphantly and threw a piece of popcorn into her mouth. "Mu Chen, your operation is terrible! You're worse than the AI in my lab."
Muchen lazily leaned on the sofa, his fingers rapidly pressing the keys, without even looking up: "Don't give me that, I was letting you go just now. Let's play another round, and the loser will wash the dishes tonight."
Sirong pushed the door open with a fruit platter in her hand and interrupted with a smile, "You two noobs, come over and have some fruit."
After Sirong entered the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the state allocated a luxurious villa to Sirong for her adoptive parents to live in. Sirong was not like other engineers who spent their days and nights in the laboratory.
Basically, she provided an idea and direction, enough for everyone to research for three to five months, and then she went home to be with her parents. The people at the research institute couldn't say anything wrong.
Facts have proved that basically any idea proposed by Sirong can be researched to produce results, whether in the field of life or in the military field.
Miss Lin rolled her eyes. "Some people say they're tired, but when they get home they drag us to play games. Is this the self-cultivation of a genius from the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"
Sirong shrugged and slumped onto the sofa. "Inspiration isn't something you can force out. Besides, the energy conversion solution I proposed last time is enough for them to research for half a year."
Mu Chen chuckled: "I think those people in the research institute are almost driven crazy by you. Others work 996 on their projects, but you go home and play games and promote national scientific and technological progress at the same time."
Sirong took a bite of the apple and said vaguely, "You don't understand. I'm not trying to steal the credit. But you guys, have you managed it in Southeast Asia?"
Miss Lin's finger drew a beautiful arc on the screen, and her tone was understated: "Well, the Qin family has already jumped into the pit. Except for me pretending to be sick, everything is going according to plan."
Muchen added, "Mr. Qin should be teaching his son the life philosophy that 'business is like a battlefield'."
The three of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Yes, Muchen took Miss Lin to hide at Sirong's place, and told others that they came to the capital for medical treatment, so as to better confuse the Qin family.
The Qin family's attitude now can be described as extremely generous, and they don't mind Miss Lin's poor health at all. In fact, the worse Miss Lin's health is, the more at ease the Qin family is.
Qin Heyang wore a well-ironed suit and held Mr. Lin's hand affectionately. "Uncle, I really like Miss Lin. No matter how her health is, I am willing to take care of her for the rest of her life."
Mr. Lin's eyes were slightly red, and he patted his shoulder: "Good boy, I feel relieved with your words... Alas, it's all my fault, that Southeast Asian project..."
Old Master Qin interjected at the right moment: "Old Lin, who doesn't make mistakes in business? We're one family from now on, so let's not talk about this!"
They seem to be having a good time on the surface, but in reality they all have their own agenda.
Qin Heyang acted as if he was determined to marry no one but Miss Lin, and had already proposed twice that he wanted to get married as soon as possible.
Mr. Lin is also a good actor. He acted as if he had not chosen the wrong person for his daughter. I was very moved and expressed my guilt about the incident in Southeast Asia.
In the Lin family's bedroom, Mrs. Lin rolled her eyes at the mirror and cursed under her breath as she packed her luggage: "A bunch of drama queens! I'm the only honest person!"
Mr. Lin pushed the door open and immediately changed into the "loving husband" mode: "Madam, please be patient. Once the Qin family is completely hooked, we can close the net."
Madam Lin sneered, "Alright, you two, one pretending to be sick and hiding in the capital, the other pretending to be guilty and acting like a good person, and you leave me here with Madam Qin to act out the 'deep affection between future in-laws'?"
Mr. Lin smiled apologetically: "Isn't this because we can't do without you? Madam Qin is completely relying on you..."
Madam Lin snorted coldly, picked up her bag and left. "After this performance, I'm going to fly to the capital right away! I won't stay even a minute longer!"
She also wanted to escape to her daughter, but there were still a few big dramas that needed to be revealed to Mrs. Qin through her, which prevented her from leaving for the time being. After cooperating with her husband and performing those dramas, she hurriedly picked up her small suitcase and rushed to the capital to find her daughter.
