310 The Shameless Competition
Lin Rou was so scared that she did not manage to dodge. The tea splashed all over her. When she realized what had happened, she was still holding a broken piece of the teacup.
At that moment, Mr. Lin’s phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from his company, he turned around and answered it.
“Chairman, it’s bad!”
After the call, Mr. Lin’s face turned from red to purple and then went white. When he hung up the phone, his eyes were wide.
!!
“CEO Ji…”
Ji Lingchen remained calm and collected. It seems like he received a call from the company.
Mr. Lin was no longer as arrogant as before, as Ji Lingchen practically had him by the throat. “CEO Ji, you should look into the collaboration with Tang Enterprise.”
“Tang Enterprise has been supporting the Lin family for almost 15 years.” Ji Lingchen chuckled. “It’s time to give some new companies a chance to shine.”
Tang Enterprise used to be a small company under the Ji family. It later became independent, but always worked closely with the Ji family. Because of what happened 15 years ago, Ji Lingchen pulled some strings and got Tang Enterprise to help him.
Mr. Lin thought that after so many years, Tang Enterprise would no longer be controlled by Ji Corporation, but he was wrong. However, Tang Enterprise would rather pay a billion yuan in penalty to terminate the contract with Lin Corporation. There were many companies that wanted to cooperate with Tang Enterprise, but now, Lin’s company lacked a partner.
Ji Lingchen replied, “You’re too busy to entertain guests now, Mr. Lin. You’re also old and muddled. You called Mrs. Ji by ‘Ms. Fang’. It seems that you’re way too busy. I’ve relieved some of the work-related pressures for you. Don’t feel the need to thank me. Lin Corporation is already a mature enterprise, and you don’t need my help anymore.”
With that, Ji Lingchen grabbed his wife’s hand and walked out.
Mr. Lin quickly stood up and blocked their way. “Lingchen, you can’t be so cruel!”
“Cruel?” He looked at his nephew and then at the phone on the coffee table. “I thought you were reasonable, but you accused my nephew of causing trouble because of a cup. You even detained him like he’s some criminal. You even confiscated his phone. Who is the cruel one here?”
Mr. Lin hurriedly handed the phone to Ji Wen.
Ji Wen took it.
Lin Rou knew how important Tang Enterprise was to Lin Corporation, so she stepped forward to grab Ji Lingchen’s wrist.
Ji Lingchen seemed to have anticipated her actions, so he pulled his little wife back a few steps.
Lin Rou’s outstretched hand grabbed nothing.
Fang Xiaonuan panicked, “Who are you trying to grab? My husband? If you dare to touch my husband with your claws, I’ll chop your hands off. Do you believe me?”
Lin Rou could not be bothered to argue with Fang Xiaonuan.
She ran past Fang Xiaonuan, and stopped in front of Ji Lingchen. “Lingchen, you can’t let Tang Enterprise and Lin Group terminate their contract. You’re pushing our family to a dead end. My father saved your life back then. Isn’t that worth 15 years of kindness?”
Fang Xiaonuan said, “Do you not think 15 years is enough? You’re really insatiable!”
Ji Wen said, “If there’s a competition for the most shameless family, your family would be the world champion!”
“If you’ve been a dog for a long time, your master might like you. If the dog is about to starve to death, do you think the master will just leave it to die?”
After saying that, he gave Mr. Lin a meaningful look, then left with his wife and nephew.
Mr. Lin looked at Ji Lingchen’s departing figure in shock. What did he mean?
Lin Rou asked, “Dad, what does Lingchen mean? Will he help us?”
Ji Lingchen drove away in the Maybach. On the way, he said to his nephew, “Throw your phone out the window.”
After Ji Wen formatted his phone, he threw it out of the window. They were worried that someone had tampered with it.
“Xiaowen, how did you get caught?” Fang Xiaonuan asked.
Only then did Ji Wen tell them what had happened. It turned out that he had been targeted for a long time. That day, as soon as he entered the store, he was slandered by the staff. They claimed he had broken the tea set and sent him directly into a room. The person who set the trap was not a member of the Lin family. The Lin family was very polite to that person, and they were very obedient.
After returning to the Ji family’s residence, Ji Lingchen asked Ji Wen to get changed and took him out to see Murong. After telling Fang Xiaonuan where they were going, the two of them left.
When they arrived at the Jade Water Manor, Murong was already waiting for them. “I guess you’re not here with good news.”
After that, the three of them sat down and started talking.
Meanwhile, after Ji Xiaoyu found out that her nephew had been illegally detained, she decisively chose to call the police.
Half an hour later, Liu Siyan personally led a team to Lin Corporation to make an arrest.
Fang Xiaonuan and Ji Wen did not sit idly either. They immediately sold a video of Director Lin’s arrest to the media for 500 yuan.
Mr. Lin’s arrest went straight into the trending searches. Combined with the termination of the Tang Enterprise contract, people in the business world speculated that Lin Corporation was also finished. Many cooperating companies began to think about terminating their contracts. The shareholders were antsy, and some were considering selling their shares before the stock price hit its limit. The Lin Corporation was facing its greatest crisis. Fang Xiaonuan, the main culprit of all this, was being reprimanded by her husband in the bedroom.
