The grand hall was filled with hushed silence all of a sudden.
Lin Jingxuanâs face contorted in anger as he lashed out at the adopted son. âMo Jiangye, have you gone crazy? Are you trying to pit yourself against the Blue Tower? Do you want the entire Lin Teng corporation to go down with you?â
Trying to mess with the Blue Tower Royalty was akin to destroying the Lin Family and Lin Teng.
He ignored the man on the stage and led his lady to the VIP section instead.
Gu Feirouâs face looked terrible by now. âGo and get yourself cleaned up now.â
Frowning, Jing Xinze replied, âYes, Princess!â
While clinging to Gu Feirou on the stage, Lin Jingxuan coldly accused the VIP section. âMo Jiangye, you are able to work at Lin Teng Corporation because my father and the elders thought highly of you. Are you trying to destroy the family and the corporation through what you just did?â
âItâs alright, Jingxuan. Itâs fine.â Gu Feirou intercepted softly.
âTo think that the Lin Family made so much effort to groom you in the first place. Keeping you at Lin Teng Corporation was the wrong decision to begin with.â
Mo Jiangye, who was sitting on the sofa, let out a chuckle. His husky, magnetic voice reverberated leisurely. âIt is not too late to rectify this mistake now, Bo Yu!â
âYes, Young Master.â
âGet in touch with the lawyer and arrange for everything that is related to Lin Teng to be handled by Master Lin from now on.â
The older man was startled by this unexpected order. What did he mean by that?
The Lin residence was crowded with many guests. Among Gu Feirouâs classmates, friends, and business associates, some people were in the dark about Lin Tengâs inner politics. Those who were unaware had assumed all along that Lin Jingxuan was the one in charge.
âIt looks like Lin Teng is heading for destruction.â
âWhy do you say that, President Wang?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIf the son of the Lin Family was capable in the first place, why would Old Master Lin hand over the family fortune to a boy he picked up from the streets?â
âBut the Lins have a few hundred years of history. Surely, Lin Teng will survive even without Young Master Mo, right?â
Ye Erruo was anxious by now. âMo Jiangye, youâve worked hard for this company. This isnât a joke. Donât throw away all your hard work!â
The couple on the stage had once tried all ways and means to get their hands on the Linsâ inheritance. How could she allow them to have it so easily now?
Her man was the reason Lin Teng was doing so well and had made a name for itself in the commercial arena. He had sweated and bled so much to build up this empire.
He tittered softly and squeezed her hand affectionately. âIâm not joking. He can take over Lin Teng if he has the capability.â
He had never once thought highly of Lin Jingxuanâs capability. Now that she was with him, he no longer wanted to be associated with the Lin Family. Today was a good day to renounce Lin Teng, as many people would bear witness. He would not be responsible for whatever might befall the company in the future!
Just as she was about to open her mouth to say something, he leaned over slightly and placed his index finger to her lips to hush her. âEven without Lin Teng, youâll still be able to enjoy a life thatâs better than any other womanâs. Ditching him is the best decision youâve made in this lifetime. But if you were to bluff me, I would not just destroy Lin Teng. I would destroy him too!â
Though he kept his volume low, every word of his warning rang loud and clear in her ears.
â...â
Lin Jingxuan probably had not expected to lay his hands on the empire this easily...
âJingxuan.â Gu Feirou tugged at his hand.
The organizer could tell what he should do next based on her look. âCough... Alright, now is the time to write a new chapter! Letâs put our hands together to welcome Master and Madam Lin and wish them happiness by clapping as loud as we can!â
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP!
âWow!â
Immediately, waves of claps could be heard undulating as everyone kept their private thoughts to themselves.
As Mo Jiangye sat beside Ye Erruo, his face would turn sullen every time he caught her eyeing Lin Jingxuan. He had to guide her attention back to him every now and then.
Is she here for the wedding because of him?
