In the conference room, the reportersâ cameras were still on. In front of both parties was a new cooperation agreement.
In fact, Old Madam Yue also thought that if she saw her enemy again, she would still be as hateful as before. She would want to make Old Madam Lin disappear from this world. However, when it came to meeting her, she let go of it because Lin Wanli had sublimated the hatred in her heart and made her understand one thing. If she really hated someone and avoided them, she would only be the one who had herself trapped.
The real revenge was to let the other party see how powerful she was and how unstoppable she was. Because this would make the enemy anxious and afraid.
It was because Lin Wanli never put herself in Ye Zhenzhenâs shoes that Ye Zhenzhen was defeated. Lin Wanli had never treated her as an opponent. Her only opponent was herself.
âAfter so many years of grudges, I didnât expect you to be willing to cooperate for Lin Wanli.â Old Madam Lin flipped through the contract in her hand and sighed.
âBecause she made me understand that I won by sitting here today.â Old Madam Yue pressed her walking stick with both hands and said, âThe reason why I chose to cooperate is not that I forgive you, nor is it because I believe in the Lin Group. I believe in Lin Wanliâs professionalism. Especially after watching todayâs scene, Iâm even more certain that my judgment was right.â
Old Madam Lin should have experienced the difference between Ye Zhenzhen and Lin Wanli today.
âI underestimated you in the past.â At this moment, Old Lady Lin looked at Lin Wanli and said, âHowever, this is not the reason why I love Zhenzhen and not you.â
Lin Wanli turned her head and rolled her eyes speechlessly. She turned her gaze back to Old Madam Lin and said, âI really donât want to repeat myself. It has nothing to do with me who you love. I never needed your approval.â âThen why must you ruin Zhenzhenâs reputation? Do you hate her that much?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBecause she wanted to ruin my reputation first!â Lin Wanli retorted, âIf you have the time to argue with me, why donât you pull your little sweetheart away and make her stop doing disgusting things? Iâm not always so good-tempered. Take Qin Huaijing as an example.â
âSince this is an occasion to discuss cooperation, letâs not mention personal grudges. Itâs a little old and we wonât have any fruitful results from discussing about it.â
At this moment, Old Madame Lin and Ye Weiyin truly felt that Lin Wanli was no longer the good-for-nothing from two years ago. She just sat there, but her scheming and shrewdness were unfathomable.
After returning to work, Lin Wanli once again impressed the people present. She was impartial and put the needs and potential crises of both parties on the surface. She also bound all possible disputes in the contract.
She seemed to be more familiar with the terms than lawyers and more sensitive to crises than business elites.
In the end, under her efforts, the Lin Group and the Yue Group completed the ice-breaking cooperation and signed the most difficult contract in the history
of the Lin Group.
In the stairwell, Ye Zhenzhen was finally tired from crying. She looked up at Xu Menglan and asked, âAunt Meng, am I really inferior to Lin Wanli?â
âHow could that be? For so many years, you were better than Lin Wanli in every aspect. Everyone could see it for themselves. Itâs just that she has become vicious and youâre kind, so you canât win against her.â Xu Menglan consoled her sincerely, âThink about it, a person who can even frame her own father, what else canât she do?â
âShe hates you out of jealousy. Look at how much Old Madam Lin dotes on you. The young master of the Zhou family also loves you. Doesnât this mean that youâre better than her? You mustnât be angry with Old Madam Lin. It must be Lin Wanliâs trap. She was really forced into it. If you want to be angry with Old Madam Lin, isnât that what Lin Wanli wants?â
After hearing Xu Menglanâs words, Ye Zhenzhen felt a lot better. Although she could not accept the comments from the outside world, just as Xu Menglan said, if she really fell out with the old lady, she would fall deeper into Lin Wanliâs trap.
âYouâve suffered so much this time. Old Madam Lin will definitely make it up to you. Just pretend to be pitiful. Donât be angry with her.â
With Xu Menglanâs comforting words, Ye Zhenzhen finally stopped crying. She got up from the steps and patted her expensive long dress. She tidied up her makeup and left her red eyes, looking so pitifulâ¦
She had not lost yet.
Xu Menglan did everything according to Lin Wanliâs instructions. She always placed Ye Zhenzhen on a high pedestal, so that she could never see herself clearly in her life. However, she would be constantly frustrated.
In the conference room, the signing process had already been completed.
Both sides were ready to retreat. At this moment, Old Madam Lin suddenly called out to Lin Xueyi, âIf you plan to move to Lin Wanliâs place, then do what she did. Return all the Lin familyâs things. Iâm going to take back the villa and use it for another purpose.â
Lin Wanliâs face darkened. She wanted to speak, but Lin Xueyi stopped her and asked Old Madam Lin calmly, âDoes this mean that our mother-daughter relationship has come to an end?â
âYou can interpret it as such,â replied Old Madam Lin.
âJust nice, Iâm free now. Mom, do you know why you canât save your son? If it werenât for you making things difficult for me, your son would have been alive.
Itâs not that I didnât want to save him, but you ruined your sonâs only chance. This is called karma.â
After she finished speaking, Lin Xueyi held Lin Wanliâs hand and said, âFrom now on, I have nothing to worry about. I donât have to live looking at your face anymore.â
Lin Wanli raised her hands and wrapped them around her motherâs right hand to give her strength.
Then, Lin Wanli looked at the surrounding reporters and said, âReport this as well. The Chairman of the Lin Group has severed ties with Lin Xueyi. From now on, there will be no more ties and they will both go their own ways.â
At this moment, Old Madam Yue looked at Old Mada Lin and found it rather interesting. She commented, âI didnât expect that after so many years, you would still make the stupidest choice.â
âMom, letâs go.â Lin Wanli pulled Lin Xueyi away from her seat. However, before that, Lin Wanli said to Old Madam Lin, âWeâll meet again in a few days.
Old Madam Lin, wait and see.â
The three of them left. At this time, Ye Zhenzhen stood at the door of the meeting room, feeling aggrieved.
Old Madam Lin was heartbroken. She reached out her hand to Ye Zhenzhen and said, âCome, baby. Grandma has let you down. Come and hug me.â
Ye Zhenzhenâs tears fell and she immediately rushed over. She whimpered,
âGrandmaâ¦â
âIt was my fault. Letâs go home and Iâll explain to you. Is that okay? Stop cryingâ¦â
Lin Wanli sneered and helped Old Madam Yue out of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce with Lin Xueyi.
After getting into the car, Lin Xueyi looked out of the car window. Lin Wanli knew that her mother was feeling hurt.
âMomâ¦â
âArenât you going to work at the Yue Group? It wonât be convenient for you to stay at Yujing Peak after Jiuxiao returns home either, so why donât you move to the Yue family house and keep me company?â asked Old Madam Yue.
âYou guys are thinking too much. Iâm just thinking about whether I should choose an auspicious day to get the shares of the Lin Group. Also, I still have to deal with that trash Qin Huaijing.â Lin Xueyi turned her gaze back. Although her eyes were red, she was stubborn..
