Chapter 80 - This Script Isn't Quite Right

The Audi car pulled to a stop. Zhao Jingshou said, "Lin Chen, the person I want to introduce to Mengyao is called Zheng Xu. His father, Zheng Qingyun, is also a businessman, and his family has assets worth billions."

"Zheng Xu's mother's family is a political family. His grandfather's position is even higher than mine."

Lin Chen was astonished. Billions in assets, and his mother's family was also powerful and influential; this was truly impressive.

If he hadn't had the system and gained various abilities, he would have been no different from an ant in front of such a family.

But in that case, it would also be difficult to meet such a person.

"Manager Zheng, Xiao Xu."

The two people in the Audi car got out and walked over. Zhao Jingshou took a few steps forward, smiling.

Lin Chen also followed, taking two steps forward.

"Brother Zhao." "Uncle Zhao."

Zheng Qingyun and Zheng Xu were one enthusiastic, one respectful.

Zhao Jingshou shook hands with Zheng Qingyun: "General Manager Zheng, the young man beside me is called Lin Chen. He's married to Mengyao, and I must apologize to you for this."

"I just learned about this matter as well."

Zheng Qingyun and Zheng Xu's expressions subtly changed.

Their primary purpose in coming was Xu Mengyao, and they weren't from Modu, nor did they conduct most of their business here.

"General Manager Zheng."

Lin Chen greeted with a smile.

Zheng Qingyun nodded and apologized, "Lin Chen, we have to apologize for this. We didn't understand the situation beforehand."

Zheng Xu coughed lightly, "Lin Chen, I'm sorry. I really didn't know that President Xu was already married."

Lin Chen smiled, "It's okay. Mengyao and I got our marriage certificate privately, so it's normal that others don't know."

Zhao Jingshou said, "President Zheng, this is my fault. I didn't get the details straight, and made you come all this way."

Zheng Qingyun laughed, "It's your sister-in-law's birthday, we should have come anyway. There's nothing to be sorry about."

Zhao Jingshou nodded slightly.

"President Zheng, please go in first."

"I'll offer you a few more drinks later to express my apology."

Zheng Qingyun said, "Old Zhao, you're busy then. Xiao Lin, it was our fault, I'll have Xiao Xu offer you a few more drinks later, don't take it to heart."

Soon, Zheng Qingyun and the others went inside.

Zhao Jingshou walked a few steps outside, with Lin Chen following. Zhao Jingshou asked, "Xiao Lin, how do you feel?"

Lin Chen said, "It's not what I imagined. In TV dramas or novels, in this kind of situation, they should be angry, pressure me to leave Mengyao and so on."

"Hehe."

Zhao Jingshou laughed.

"Those who have reached Zheng Qingyun's level are basically all shrewd people, such situations rarely happen. Today is still my wife's birthday, they won't do that."

"Any other feelings?"

Lin Chen considered for a moment and said, "They're very polite, but I think this kind of politeness is just superficial."

"The Xu Family might have trouble in the future."

Zhao Jingshou looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "You're not saying you'll have trouble, but rather the Xu Family will, that's quite interesting. Tell me more, let me hear your analysis."

Lin Chen shook his head: "Uncle Zhao, I can't analyze any more than that. My level is just average."

Zhao Jingshou looked at Lin Chen intently.

A smile appeared on his face: "Xiao Lin, that's good. It seems you also know that it's not a good thing to speak too deeply with those you don't know well. I hope you and Mengyao will have a happy ending."

"Uncle Zhao, then I'll go in first."

Lin Chen said.

Zhao Jingshou nodded, and Lin Chen entered the hotel.

Zhao Jingshou's eyes revealed a look of worry.

The Xu Family was indeed going to have problems; he had already heard some whispers. But he also found it difficult to change things.

The Xu Family had assets of over thirty billion, and the company was doing well, with assets still increasing. There were more than a few who wanted a piece of the pie.

Originally, he had wanted to introduce Mengyao to Zheng Xu. If they could get together, the Xu Family's pressure would be reduced.

Even if a portion of it would be swallowed by the Zheng Family in the future, the Xu Family's assets wouldn't be consumed so quickly. The Xu Family's thirty-billion-plus assets should be able to keep at least half.

As a result, Mengyao was already married.

"Sigh!"

"If only the old leader could have lived a few more years."

Zhao Jingshou sighed inwardly.

If Yang Qingyue's father had lived a few more years, the Xu Family's foundation would have been more stable. As it was, the Xu Family's foundation was shaky. Some of Yang Qingyue's father's connections were still in place and could temporarily stabilize things, but those connections would gradually be used up. How could outsiders be expected to help the Xu Family unconditionally forever?

If they started making demands, what difference would there be between them and those ravenous wolves?

"Originally, it might have been stable for another two years. This Zheng Family matter, I don't know if it will accelerate the deterioration of the situation."

Zhao Jingshou felt helpless.

Inside the hotel, Lin Chen walked towards Xu Mengyao.

"Dad."

Lin Chen walked up to Lin Xiaoxi and called out sweetly.

"Hey!"

Lin Chen smiled and called out. He reached out his hand, and Xu Mengyao naturally handed Lin Xiaoxi to him.

"Aunt Liang, this is my husband, Lin Chen. Honey, Aunt Liang looks like my sister, but don't call her the wrong name, okay?"

Xu Mengyao said with a smile.

"Aunt Liang."

Lin Chen called out.

Xu Mengyao called Liang Chunhua Aunt Liang, and she smiled and said, "Xiao Lin, you're so lucky. You have a wife like Mengyao and a well-behaved daughter like Xiaoxi."

Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao.

"Perhaps it was fate that brought Mengyao and me together. Xiaoxi is the best gift the heavens have given us."

Xu Mengyao's face flushed slightly.

Liang Chunhua saw it all.

Xu Mengyao probably already had Lin Chen in her heart.

In this situation, there was no need for her and her husband to persuade Xu Mengyao to divorce and choose someone else.

"Mengyao, Xiao Lin, I wish you both happiness."

"Thank you for the gifts as well."

Liang Chunhua smiled and said.

Mengyao had already given her the gift, and the painting tube was now beside her, but it hadn't been unwrapped yet.

"Thank you, Aunt Liang."

Liang Chunhua looked away, "Xiao Lin, I'll excuse myself for a moment. Mengyao, you take care of Xiao Lin."

"Okay."

Mengyao nodded.

Liang Chunhua walked towards a guest who had just entered.

Mengyao leaned in and whispered, "Lin Chen, what did Uncle Zhao say to you?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Uncle Zhao asked me when we're holding the wedding. He can't wait to drink at our wedding banquet."

Xu Mengyao: "..."

Zheng Qingyun and Zheng Xu walked over together.

Zheng Qingyun said apologetically, "President Xu, there's something we need to apologize for. We've already told Lin Chen, but we still need to tell you."

"We didn't know you were married, so we asked Old Zhao to introduce us, and we came over today to get acquainted."

"Old Zhao has already told us about your marriage."

Zheng Xu said, "I was the one who pestered my dad to come over. I didn't expect to almost make a fool of myself. I hope you don't mind."

Xu Mengyao smiled slightly, "It's fine as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up. We haven't made it public, so it's normal that you didn't know."

After a few more words, Zheng Qingyun and the others left.

Xu Mengyao frowned slightly.

The Zheng Family father and son seemed quite gracious, but she felt that things weren't that simple. This matter might bring negative consequences for the Xu Family.

"Xiaoxi, there's a little sister over there. Do you want to go and play with her?"

"Mommy and Daddy will watch you from here."

Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoxi and asked.

"Mmhmm."

Lin Xiaoxi nodded.

Lin Chen put Lin Xiaoxi down, and Lin Xiaoxi went over. The two little fellows quickly started playing together.

"Lin Chen, they didn't do anything to you just now, did they?"

Mengyao asked softly.

Lin Chen whispered, "Mengyao, I suggest you call me husband. It's not good for others to hear you call me Lin Chen."

Mengyao: "..."
