Hidden Billionaire Son-in-law

0"Zhang Tianhai, can't you speak any louder? I can't even hear what you're saying from here," Lin Yin spoke calmly as he remained seated on the sofa.    0

    

"You...!" Zhang Tianhai glared at Lin Yin, unable to vent his anger.    

    

Zhang Hongxuan also gave Lin Yin a cold look. If it was any other time, he would have scolded him. Due to the current situation, however, he could only endure his provocation.    

    

"Speak louder!" Zhang Hongxuan scolded Zhang Tianhai.    

    

Zhang Tianhai clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he repeated reluctantly, "Fifth Uncle! Fifth Aunt! Qimo! I'm truly sorry for the despicable acts I committed. I hope you can all forgive me this once!"    

    

Lu Yahui and Zhang Xiufeng looked at each other but did not say anything.    

    

Zhang Hongxuan saw that Zhang Xiufeng's family did not have any intention of pursuing the blame. He smiled and said, " Fifth Brother, Sister-In-Law, let me tell you. This child, Tianhai, was plotted against by some wicked people outside. He only made such stupid decisions because of their bad influences. Standing in front of you all, he is still the same respectful man you have known him to be."    

    

"Since I have not visited your house for such a long time, I decided to bring over two small gifts," ZHang Hongxuan said with a smile as he lifted out two white jade lions from the gift box and placed them on the table.    

    

This pair of small white jade lions had exquisite workmanship and excellent jade materials. One could tell with a single glance that they were high-grade items.    

    

Having derived from a family that dealt with jewelry and jade, Zhang Xiufeng's family could tell that the total value of this pair of jade lions was worth at least five hundred thousand.    

    

"Third Brother, you're being too polite. You only came to my house today as a guest. Why did you bring such a precious gift? I can't accept this," Zhang Xiufeng politely declined.    

    

"Ah, this isn't too big of a deal," Zhang Hongxuan quickly replied. "Tianhai did something wrong this time and almost ruined Qimo's reputation. This gift acts as a token of my apology. Please accept it."    

    

"This..." Zhang Xiufeng looked at Lu Yahui with concern.    

    

Lu Yahui frowned as she did not know how to deal with Zhang Hongxuan.    

    

"Vice Chairman Zhang, did you bring these two pieces of trash in an attempt to dismiss Zhang Tianhai's crimes?" Lin Yin said calmly. "Qimo is now a well-known figure whose designs are worth hundreds of millions in the jewelry industry of East Sea Province. Did you think you could settle things with two mere stones?"    

    

Zhang Hongxuan's face was livid with rage. He suddenly felt the urge to slap Lin Yin in his face.    

    

This kid was far too meddlesome! A cowardly son-in-law actually dared to give him orders?    

    

"Those items were but mere bonuses," Zhang Hongxuan said as he forced out a smile. "Since Qimo was promoted to be the director of the design department, I, as her uncle, should also show some respect to her."    

    

"This one million will serve as a congratulatory gift for Qimo's promotion! I hope that Qimo will show mercy and brush this matter aside," Zhang Hongxuan said with a smile and placed a suitcase on the table.    

    

Upon lifting open the suitcase, stacks of red bills could be seen within.    

    

"Tianhai, you are an older brother. Take a good look at Qimo. You should learn from her in the future. Don't just eat and play every day," Zhang Hongxuan said with a serious expression, believing to have said more than enough.    

    

Lu Yahui and her husband looked at the mountain of bills in the suitcase and could not help but feel slightly moved.    

    

"Qimo, Third Uncle has already done more than enough to give us face. His sincerity is also sufficient. Just take a look..." Lu Yahui — unable to make up her mind — decided to probe her daughter's intentions.    

    

Zhang Qimo looked worried and could not make up her mind. She was not tempted by this one million yuan, but instead, simply failing to understand such worldly matters. Although she wanted to teach Zhang Tianhai a lesson, she was nevertheless afraid that his family might take revenge and settle the score with her family.    

    

Zhang Hongxuan laughed in his heart and heaved a sigh of relief. From the looks of it, Zhang Xiufeng's family was going to compromise. Just as he had expected, his fifth brother's family was already used to being poor. To think that a mere one million yuan would be enough to satisfy and confuse them.    

    

As long as they settled this crisis, there would be plenty of opportunities to regain their face in the future.    

    

"Vice Chairman Zhang, did you think Qimo has never seen the world? Did you actually think you could settle things peacefully with just a million yuan? Don't you know how much that stolen jewelry was worth?" Lin Yin sat on the sofa with a calm expression and said indifferently.    

    

"Take back all your money and those two pieces of stone! Go back to where you came from! Have you already forgotten how Qimo is now a famous jewelry designer of East Sea Province. Why would she care about those things of yours?"    

    

"Lin Yin! You!"    

    

Zhang Hongxuan boiled in rage as he stood up and glared daggers at Lin Yin. He tried to suppress Lin Yin with his momentum, but Lin Yin had unexpectedly remained unfazed from his intimidation.    

    

Just when he was about to accomplish his task, that good-for-nothing brat actually stood up and ruined everything. He would have to get rid of him sooner or later!    

    

A good-for-nothing son-in-law from the Zhang Family actually dared to act presumptuously in front of a person in charge of the Zhang Family. He was truly stupid beyond redemption.    

    

"Fifth Brother, Sister-In-Law, will the two of you side with that useless brat, Lin Yin?" Zhang Hongxuan said in a deep voice. He was so angry that he could not control his emotions any longer. "Was he not taught proper manners? How dare he interrupt the conversation between his elders?"    

    

"This?" Lu Yahui frowned and stared at Zhang Xiufeng.    

    

She would have long since scolded Lin Yin if he dared to interrupt her like this at any other time.    

    

However, in this situation, there was nothing wrong with what Lin Yin said. After all, he even managed to cause Third Brother to erupt in a fit of rage.    

    

Lu Yahui said, "Third Brother, this incident took place in the company. Zhang Xiufeng and I don't know much about the situation either. Thus, we will let Qimo make the decision. Since Lin Yin is also Qimo's assistant, his words will also serve as Qimo's words."    

    

"Qimo, don't you remember how well Third Uncle treated you when you were growing up? Are you not willing to give Third Uncle some face?" Zhang Hongxuan said seriously and pulled out the emotional card.    

    

"Business is business. Vice Chairman Zhang, since Zhang Tianhai attempted to invade the group's property, I think it will be appropriate to hand this recording evidence over to the Board of Directors tomorrow and let all the shareholders of the Board of Directors listen to it. The Board of Directors will then decide how to deal with him," Lin Yin said casually.    

    

Zhang Hongxuan's eyes were spitting fire at this point. Although he wanted to kill Lin Yin, he nevertheless held back his anger.    

    

Lin Yin's words were like a knife stabbing into his heart. This was the outcome that he feared the most.    

    

Zhang Hongxuan stared coldly at Lin Yin and asked fiercely, "Then, what do you want?"    

    

"I just feel that your apology isn't sincere enough," Lin Yin said calmly. "Why don't you show actual sincerity by asking Zhang Tianhai to kneel down and apologize?"    

    

"What the hell?! You son of a b*tch! I will definitely find someone to beat you to death next time!" Zhang Tianhai cursed — his veins popping out on his forehead.    

    

"Tsk, Qimo, Mom, Dad, did you guys hear that correctly? That is Zhang Tianhai's true attitude. Do you still think you can forgive him?" Lin Yin said leisurely.    

    

"Lin Yin, you conceited bastard!" Zhang Tianhai shouted as he exploded with anger. "A good-for-nothing brat like you actually dares to challenge me?! You better not let me catch you in the future!"    

    

"I see that there's nothing left to talk about here," Lin Yin said as he picked up the watermelon on the table and took a bite.    

    

At this moment, Zhang Hongxuan looked like a volcano that had just erupted. As his entire body continued to tremble in rage, he turned around and scolded Zhang Tianhai, "You useless brat, shut your mouth before you make things even worse!"
