"Cough cough cough... Uncle, you know I was forced into this situation, so you can't blame me," Su Lin replied somewhat awkwardly.
"Hmph, I don't care about your petty affairs. I'm just telling you, you absolutely must have your dad come over tomorrow, have a meal together, and talk about the arrangements. Don't you understand the saying 'the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind'? Your dad is playing a tightrope game. If it weren't for someone protecting him, he would have been dead eight hundred times over by now."
"You've completely inherited your dad's genes in this respect. Neither of you is easy to deal with. How did our little girl end up with such a troublemaker like you?"
Hearing Lin Guoqiang's disappointed words on the phone, Lin Xiaowan stuck out her tongue.
"Uncle~! That's enough. Others may not understand how outstanding I am, but you definitely do. It's not unusual for Xiao Wan to be interested in me. By the way, what time do you want to meet tomorrow? I'll call my dad right away and have him arrange the time."
"Let's have dinner together tomorrow night at six o'clock. You're all about to start school, so don't cause any trouble. Just rest at home and wait for school to start, okay? As for the big families in Donghai, and the big families that are about to come in, I'll make them listen to me."
Hearing Lin Guoqiang's domineering voice, Su Lin was somewhat surprised. It seemed that the Lin family's foundation was indeed quite strong.
You should know that at least ten major families have entered the East China Sea, based on what he has heard.
It's just not stable yet, so it hasn't started moving around.
"Okay, Uncle. Xiaowan and I will study hard when school starts. But we have a deal, we won't cause trouble, but what if someone comes after me?" Su Lin asked with a smile.
"Then beat him up! Your dad built such a big business and couldn't protect you. Let him find a latrine and commit suicide as soon as possible," Lin Guoqiang said angrily.
He had more contact with Su Zhenguo than Su Lin had with Su Zhenguo. Ever since Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan got together, Su Zhenguo had been showing off to him every day.
Therefore, in Lin Guoqiang's eyes, Su Lin and Su Zhenguo were both extremely despicable.
"Okay, that's exactly what I wanted to hear, Uncle. If someone bullies me, I'll fight back."
"Hmph, wait till I get to the East China Sea and cause me a lot of trouble, then I'll have to clean up your mess."
"No, I really wouldn't dare."
After hanging up the phone, Su Lin said with some relief, "I didn't expect my father-in-law to be so protective of his son. I thought he would make me put up with it."
Lin Xiaowan laughed, "Don't let my dad's kind appearance fool you, he used to have a fiery temper, he's just toned it down now. Su Lin, my dad's coming to Donghai soon, are you nervous?"
Su Lin shook his head: "Why am I nervous? It's just the father-in-law meeting the son-in-law. I'm not afraid."
"Hehe, you're being stubborn. Hurry up and call your dad, otherwise he'll be too busy and won't have time."
Su Lin nodded, then took out his phone and called Su Zhenguo.
Su Zhenguo was not as surprised as Su Lin when he received the news. He learned from other sources that Lin Guoqiang was coming to Donghai to become the mayor.
The transfer from Zhongjiang to Donghai may seem like a lateral move, but it was actually a promotion.
Donghai is the capital of Jiangnan Province, while Zhongjiang is only a county-level city.
Lin Guoqiang's move can be described as a huge leap forward.
However, in a world where powerful families control resources, this is how things are; it's not that you have to accumulate a lot of seniority to make such a leap.
"Tomorrow at six o'clock in the afternoon, right? I'll have someone arrange the time."
"That's fine, I'll go reply to them right away."
"Hmm~! Be nicer. I've heard Brother Lin say this many times: you often upset him. He's your future father-in-law, so you should be more accommodating," Su Zhenguo reminded him.
Su Lin gave a wry smile upon hearing this. When had he ever angered Lin Guoqiang? It was mostly Lin Guoqiang who was angry with him, okay?
Of course, sometimes when he can't handle it, he just deliberately makes a few sarcastic remarks about Lin Xiaowan.
"Okay, I understand."
"Well, I have another meeting to attend, so I won't say any more."
After hanging up the phone, Su Lin checked the time and said speechlessly, "It's almost ten o'clock and we're still having a meeting."
Lin Xiaowan laughed upon hearing this, "Do you think everyone is like you? Being a boss is more comfortable than anyone else, you hardly have to worry about anything."
Su Lin laughed and said, "Isn't Yangzi managing things quite well now? Handong Province is almost fully mobilized, and with Song Zhigang's cooperation, Jingzhou City is also progressing very quickly. It doesn't matter whether the company has me or not."
Thinking of Xia Shiyu's elderly father still in Donghai, Su Lin looked at Xia Shiyu and said, "Xiaoyu, why don't we bring your dad over too? The conditions in Donghai are much better than in Zhongjiang. If you bring him over, he'll be there to take care of you."
Xia Shiyu shook her head: "I called my dad a long time ago and he said he didn't want to come. He said he still has occasional rejection reactions after the kidney transplant. He thinks Zhongjiang is fine and he will come to Donghai to see us when he has time."
"Hey... your dad doesn't think he'll be a burden to us if he comes, does he?"
Su Lin knew that Xia Shiyu's father was a very simple-minded person; in short, he didn't want to cause trouble for others and was very strong-willed.
"He's doing really well in Zhongjiang. I've been sending my entire monthly salary back to him. My dad and Aunt Wang are currently very much in love, so let's not bother them."
Su Lin nodded; "Tell them that they can come to Donghai anytime if they want to."
"Mmm~!!"

Feiyu Entertainment!
Xiao Feiyu looked at Xiao Quan in front of him with great annoyance: "Didn't I tell you to go back to Shanghai? Why are you still standing here?"
Xiao Quan stammered, "Young Master, I was sent by the Master to protect your safety."
After saying that, Xiao Quan fell silent. His meaning was clear: I was sent by your father, and you have no right to make me go back.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Feiyu became even more furious; "So you're saying you're going to disobey me?"
Xiao Quan said calmly, "Young Master, things are turbulent in the East China Sea right now, and many experts have emerged. If I return to Shanghai and someone attacks you at this time, you may be in grave danger."
Xiao Feiyu shuddered, recalling the look Su Lin had given him earlier—a look that suggested he might die at any moment.
This feeling was strange and illogical, but he felt that if he had confronted Su Lin head-on back then, that guy might have actually made a move.
Xiao Feiyu waved his hand and said, "Alright, then I'll keep you here for a couple more days. By the way, let me know that I'm taking over the work in Donghai."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Quan said, "Young Master, I'm afraid that won't work."
"What, can't I take over my own family's business?" Xiao Feiyu was really angry with Xiao Quan. If he could beat him, he would have already attacked Xiao Quan.
Xiao Quan nodded; "The family head sent word that they will come to Donghai tomorrow to discuss cooperation with the Su Group. The chairman of the Su Group is Su Lin's father."
"What? My parents are coming? When did this happen?" Xiao Feiyu stood up, somewhat flustered.
"We received the news when you went upstairs for dinner."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
Xiao Quan said, somewhat speechless, "It was you who wouldn't let me speak."
"I..."
Xiao Feiyu patted his head; "Forget it, I won't hold it against you. Just tell me whatever other news you have."
"I heard that the younger generation of the Liu and Zheng families in the capital have arrived in Donghai, and the Ma family in Guangzhou has also sent people, but their exact location is still unclear. However, they should all be middle-aged and young people bringing their children to broaden their horizons. There is still no news from Su Zhenguo. He is not seeing any guests, so he is probably waiting."
Xiao Feiyu looked at Xiao Quan with some surprise upon hearing this. You could say this guy is dull, but he's still capable of getting things done. You could say he's smooth-talking, but that doesn't even come close.
If it weren't for the possibility that it was impossible, Xiao Feiyu would have thought that Xiao Quan was playing a trick on him.
"The Liu family, the Zheng family, and the Ma family are all big families. Why are they joining in the fun? Is the small Donghai trying to turn the world upside down?"
"But thinking about it, it makes sense. Su Lin is the main character; wherever he is, he's bound to be at the center of the vortex."
When will my parents arrive tomorrow?
Xiao Quan was somewhat surprised; "Young Master, are you planning to pick me up from the airport?"
"Nonsense, how could I not pick up my parents when they come?" Xiao Feiyu gave Xiao Quan a disdainful look.
Xiao Quan remained silent. He remembered that Xiao Feiyu had never been taken care of by his parents. No matter where he was, he wanted what he liked, and if he couldn't get it, he would make a fuss. Unfortunately, his parents spoiled him a lot, which shaped his current personality.
It's just that I don't know when Xiao Feiyu changed his ways. Although he was a bit awkward when he got into trouble, he is definitely making progress.
"The flight is at around 2 PM tomorrow, and it is expected to arrive in the East China Sea around 5 PM."
"Okay, we'll pick her up then. Oh, by the way, check on Zhao Yanyan's whereabouts, preferably for tomorrow, I need to make contact with her."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Quan said, "Didn't you say you wanted to get in touch with Miss Li? Why have you changed your mind?"
"Just do what I tell you to do. Can you please stop asking so many questions?" Xiao Feiyu said angrily.
Li Ziyu showed him no mercy today, her cold tone and icy face made him realize that if he went to her, he would only be offering a cold shoulder.
Therefore, Xiao Feiyu quickly adjusted his plans.

Zhao Yanyan's long legs are truly unforgettable.
The main problem is that Zhao Yanyan is obsessed with looks, while I am...
Thinking of his handsome face, Xiao Feiyu felt that if he were a looks-obsessed person, starting with Zhao Yanyan would be the best option, and he was sure to get something out of her.
"Have another appointment with Jiang Ruoxi. Tell her that if she wants to call off the engagement, she should come with me to pick up my parents. Otherwise, I'll go back to Shanghai immediately and beg my great-grandfather to let us get married as soon as possible. If he agrees to let us get married, I'll do whatever he tells me to do from now on," Xiao Feiyu said calmly.
Xiao Quan was surprised again. He was astonished that someone could say such shameless things. He had improved a lot since then.
"Yes, young master, I'll go and inform them right away."
Xiao Feiyu waved his hand: "Go ahead."
The next day, neither Su Lin nor Lin Xiaowan went to the company.
"Xiao Wan, do I look handsome in this outfit? How about it? I didn't embarrass you, did I?"
Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin's short-sleeved shirt and shorts and sighed, "You're being way too casual. You're at least meeting my parents."
Su Lin laughed and said, "It's so hot, you can't expect me to wear a suit and tie."
