Lin Langsheng, who had rely co for a eting and to wait for training at his workplace, was so excited after the eting ended that he couldn’t wait to hand over his duties.
When the representative of that company ca over to stamp the docunts, the deputy director in the office obsequiously said to the representative, "This is our Director Lin, he will be the one in charge of interfacing with your group’s projects from now on."
"Nice to et you, Director Lin. I look forward to your guidance in the future."
The representative promptly reached out for a handshake with Lin Langsheng.
Lin Langsheng felt everything was falling back into place, "No need to be so courteous. We should all look out for each other. As long as you operate legally within our jurisdiction, our promised green-light policy will certainly prioritize your company."
After sending off the representatives of the new investing company, Lin Langsheng called his wife to share the excitent he was feeling at that mont.
"Feng’s family is truly sothing," Lin Langsheng clicked his tongue in amazent, "Today Feng’s mother, I don’t know who she called, but guess what happened when I got to my unit?"
His wife Zhao Yanrong hesitated, "You weren’t criticized by your leader, were you?"
"No!" Lin Langsheng chuckled, "I thought I was finished today too, but who would have thought this unexpected eting was actually to announce my appointnt as the head of the investnt promotion office in our jurisdiction!"
Zhao Yanrong’s eyes widened, "What about the second-in-command Yang Rong? Wasn’t that his responsibility?"
Lin Langsheng replied, "I don’t know, but right now I’m the one liaising with the heads of those corporate groups. Yang Rong’s face turned dark during the eting today!"
"Haha," Zhao Yanrong laughed, feeling sowhat secretly pleased, "Do you think it has to do with that call Feng’s mom made?"
"Definitely," Lin Langsheng said with conviction, "I’ve been stuck here half-alive for years, and if there was going to be a change, it wouldn’t have waited till today. It must be related to that call Feng’s mother made, but I’m really curious about who she called that made the Big Housekeeper decide so promptly, even at the risk of offending Yang Rong."
"And the eting being so sudden, it must be connected to that phone call!"
Zhao Yanrong, also happy for her husband, sighed, "You know, if Little Yue had just ntioned Feng as her suitor earlier, we wouldn’t have had to face the humiliation of the Su Family breaking off the engagent!"
Lin Langsheng said, "She probably wasn’t sure about Feng’s family having the ans. Rember that our relatives didn’t even know about the marriage certificate between Feng and Little Yue before they visited? Now I think it’s a good thing that she brought Feng to the wedding and didn’t kick him out on the spot."
Zhao Yanrong laughed, "You should thank Liu Yan for that, if she hadn’t taken a liking to him at first glance, you would have opposed their marriage long ago."
Lin Langsheng reflected on that and felt a chill, but was also glad he’d made the right bet. He laughed, "Prepare a good feast tonight, wait for to co back."
"Okay," Zhao Yanrong also couldn’t wait to give Liu Yan a call.
When Lin Yue’s mother, Liu Yan, heard that her brother was beginning to be favored by the Big Housekeeper, she felt as though the Lin Family suddenly had a backbone and hope again.
Ever since the group’s performance declined and continued to suffer losses, her husband Lin Hai passed away, and then Lin Langsheng, the public face of the Lin Family, also hit a career bottleneck.
The Lin Family gave off an aura of a declining sun in its twilight years.
"Your brother said, whether he can advance further now depends on the Gu Family’s side. He wants you to speak with Little Yue, to have her give in to Feng a bit in daily life and not to act all haughty and bossy just because she earns more than her husband. Remind her that Feng is not a son-in-law who moved in with them, but she’s the daughter who married out."
"I know, I’ll do so preventative education on the girl right away," Liu Yan chuckled, "Don’t worry, sister-in-law. If this girl dares to bicker with Feng, just watch discipline her!"
So, while Lin Yue was at the group’s headquarters, she received a stern call from her mother for the first ti, giving her a lesson in ’female virtues’.
Various heartfelt admonitions on how Lin Yue should considerately care for her husband in everyday life were passed on earnestly over the phone for more than an hour, leaving Lin Yue completely overwheld.
Lin Yue, flabbergasted, called Feng, "What exactly did your mom feed into my mom’s head? How co in just an afternoon, my mom is calling , telling to treat you with reverence at ho, saying I’m the one who married out, not that you moved in, commanding not to throw temper tantrums like so young mistress!"
"She even said that if we argue, I’m not allowed to run back to my parent’s house. They don’t want —she said, alive or dead, I’m the Gu Family’s daughter-in-law!"
Gu Feng chuckled softly, "I shouldn’t really say it, but your mom does treat quite well, her son-in-law. It’s kind of touching. I an it."
This incident also provided a contrast, conjuring up an image in his mind.
He had always thought of Zhong Li’s parents as his future in-laws, only to be spurned by them in the end!
Lin Yue’s eyes glimred with anticipation as she asked, "And then?"
Gu Feng replied, "Then I thought about helping her turn that billion into several tis more."
Lin Yue’s beautiful eyes dimd with disappointnt.
She had thought Gu Feng would say sothing like, ’Then I’ll just think about settling down with you, shall we?’ or sothing like that.
