Ma Junjie took a sip, then looked at Xiao Feiyu behind him and said sarcastically, "What bad luck."
Wang Tao nodded: "This suffering was for nothing."
"You'd better keep your eyes open next time you go out to play," Ma Junjie said meaningfully.
In Donghai, he dared not do anything to Su Lin because the Ma family needed Su's help. But Xiao Feiyu was different. He could see that Xiao Feiyu and Su Lin had a clear conflict, and the point of conflict was Jiang Ruoxi.
It seems that the woman Xiao Feiyu likes has fallen for another man, which Ma Junjie finds particularly interesting.
He looked at Xiao Feiyu with a mocking expression.
Xiao Feiyu glanced at Ma Junjie, then looked away, got into his car, started the engine, and drove off.
"That's it? The number one playboy in Shanghai can't even handle one woman." Ma Junjie shook his head, then beckoned several women to get into the car.
Seeing this, Wang Tao turned around and got into his McLaren.
Su Lin, Jiang Ruoxi, and Li Ziyu found a quiet bar.
Su Lin looked at Jiang Ruoxi and said calmly, "If you want to drink to relieve your boredom in the future, you can come to a place like this. It's not as chaotic as a bar here."
Jiang Ruoxi nodded.
"Ziyu, what made you suddenly decide to come to a bar so late at night?" Su Lin asked curiously.
Li Ziyu said calmly, "Ruoxi said that Xiao Feiyu has already told his parents about canceling the engagement, so she is quite happy and asked me to come out to celebrate."
Su Lin suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Then I must congratulate Ruoxi."
Jiang Ruoxi shook her head: "I think Gao Xin is too early. Xiao Feiyu clearly hasn't given up. Otherwise, he wouldn't have shown up at the bar tonight. I now seriously suspect that he told Aunt Gao about canceling the engagement just as a delaying tactic."
Su Lin inwardly praised Jiang Ruoxi, but said aloud, "Why would you have such a thought?"
Jiang Ruoxi shook her head: "I don't know either, but I think it should be like this."
"Then you'd better be careful. I always feel that there's something strange about this Xiao Feiyu. It's like he's hiding something very well," Li Ziyu warned.
Jiang Ruoxi nodded; "I didn't notice it before, but after coming to Donghai, I also felt that way. It's as if he's hiding himself away, only showing us what he wants us to see. I don't know how this person suddenly became so profound."
Su Lin laughed and said, "Who cares how profound he is, as long as he doesn't come after me. If he does, I'll let him know why the flowers are so red."
Li Ziyu glared at Su Lin; "Stop thinking about fighting all the time, it's too dangerous. You should use that energy to manage the company well."
"Hey~!! Ziyu, you look like a busybody." Jiang Ruoxi teased Li Ziyu.
Upon hearing this, Li Ziyu's face flushed slightly, but she remained composed and said calmly, "I'm telling the truth. Su Lin, tell me how many times I've fought with people since I've known you. In the future, more and more powerful families will come from the East China Sea, and there will be more and more powerful people. It's best to be careful."
Su Lin nodded: "I'll try my best. I threw that bottle tonight because I saw you guys were there and I was afraid that Xiao Feiyu would hurt you."
Su Lin knew that Li Ziyu was right, and he began to reflect on himself. Since arriving in Donghai, he had indeed started to take action as much as possible rather than argue.
His idea was simple: all schemes and tricks are nothing compared to absolute power.
Because he is strong, and given the current situation where powerful families control resources, he dares to act without any scruples.
However, with Lin Guoqiang's arrival and the influx of other prominent families, Su Lin knew he would need to think carefully before taking action, as the Su family was currently in a precarious position. As for Xiao Feiyu, Su Lin felt it was best to act decisively rather than argue, and if the opportunity arose, strike with deadly force.
"I'm just reminding you, but with your intelligence, you'll figure it out on your own without me having to remind you."
Su Lin smiled and said, "My father is going to hold a banquet in a few days to invite all the major families in Donghai to discuss cooperation. Ziyu, you have already talked to my father, so I won't say more. Ruoxi, if your Jiang family wants to cooperate, you can go back and inform them."
Jiang Ruoxi looked at Su Lin with some surprise; "Su Lin, do you mean our Jiang family will also participate in this collaboration?"
"Of course, with so many big families coming, all of them have huge appetites, it's impossible to cater to them all. So if you want to cooperate, you should be prepared."
"Don't worry, although our Jiang family isn't the number one family in Shanghai, we're still one of the top families. In some areas, we're even stronger than the Xiao family. Nothing will happen to us," Jiang Ruoxi said confidently.
Su Lin had no doubt about this at all.
"It's getting late, everyone should go home. I have to go to work tomorrow."
Li Ziyu looked at Su Lin with some surprise; "You? You still go to work? I heard from Xiao Wan and the others that you only go to the company a few times a month."
Su Lin sighed, "Do you think I wanted this? It's not my Rainforest Company, but the Su family's."
"The Su family? Your dad put you in charge of the company?"
Su Lin nodded with a headache: "His company has a complete real estate portfolio, but everything else is bought, like research institutes and factories. It's a real mess. I get a headache just thinking about when I was the vice president."

"Hehe, I think your dad did the right thing. It's good that you're going to work at the company, so you won't cause trouble everywhere."
Su Lin cried out that he was wronged, "You're really accusing me, Ziyu! When did I cause any trouble? I've cleaned up a lot of your messes, though."
"Bang!"
Su Lin was lightly kicked by Li Ziyu; "How can you talk like that? When...when did I let you..."
"Hahaha, Ziyu, you can be shy too!" Jiang Ruoxi laughed heartily, disregarding her image.
Su Lin smiled too. Li Ziyu's cheeks were flushed, and she looked incredibly beautiful under the lights. It was a pity that Jiang Ruoxi was there; if she weren't, Su Lin would definitely have made a move on her.
Su Lin glanced at Jiang Ruoxi; she was pretty, but she didn't seem to care much about her image.
This is probably what a woman's confidence is like. She is extremely confident in her appearance, so she is not worried at all about her image collapsing.
The three chatted for a while longer before heading home. Su Lin had originally intended to see Li Ziyu and Jiang Ruoxi off, but upon seeing the Li family arrive, he abandoned the idea.
.......
"Ziyu, this Su Lin is really good. Are you just planning to continue like this?"
Li Ziyu looked out the window and murmured, "What else can we do? Join them? You don't know how complicated the backgrounds of Su Lin's girlfriends are."
"Actually, these aren't the most important things. The most important thing is that Su Lin has a foundation of affection with them. She didn't just randomly take them into her room because they're pretty. What if they argue later?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruoxi said, "Then you're just going to give in like that? You should know that a woman's happiness is something she has to fight for, especially when it comes to someone as sought-after as Su Lin. If you don't fight for it, and one of them wins and marries Su Lin, I'd like to see how you cry then."
Li Ziyu shook her head: "Ruoxi, you don't understand Su Lin. It's impossible for him to give up other people for one of them. Take Lin Xiaowan for example. Without a doubt, Su Lin's favorite is her, but as far as I know, Lin Xiaowan has never mentioned this matter, not even a single word."
Jiang Ruoxi sighed, "Xiao Wan is also a very intelligent girl. Ziyu, you have a rival now."
Li Ziyu shook her head and looked at Jiang Ruoxi seriously, saying, "Ruoxi, actually, the person I'm most worried about right now is you."
"Me? Why are you worried about me?" Jiang Ruoxi asked, puzzled.
Li Ziyu sighed, "Su Lin is really charming. I'm worried that if you stay with us for too long, you'll end up like us, drawn to the flame like a moth to a flame."
"That's impossible… I will never share a man with another woman," Jiang Ruoxi said firmly.
Li Ziyu smiled upon hearing this.
Jiang Ruoxi is still very confident now, just like she was back then, isn't she?
Who would have thought that before meeting Su Lin, Li Ziyu was someone no man could stand?
But after meeting Su Lin, she felt that the bottom line she had held onto was gradually disappearing.
"Well... just listen to me."
"Hehe, don't worry. Although Su Lin is outstanding, he's not the only outstanding second-generation in the entire Xia Kingdom. My Jiang family's status is such that we can even arrange marriages with top-tier families in the capital," Jiang Ruoxi said confidently.
Seeing this, Li Ziyu remained silent. Her reminder had been given, and what Jiang Ruoxi did was no longer her concern.

"Su Lin, Su Lin~! Get up, it's already nine o'clock, why are you still sleeping?"
"Su Lin, get up quickly, we have to go to the company to report for duty today."
The voices of Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan outside the door woke Su Lin from her sleep: "Come in, the door isn't locked."
Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan opened the door and entered; both of them were already dressed.
Su Lin's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Xiaowan in her business attire; "Xiaowan, you look really good in this outfit."
"What time is it? Still looking at your clothes? Get up, it's nine o'clock. Don't forget you're going to Su's Group as your vice president today."
Xia Shiyu was even more direct than Lin Xiaowan, grabbing a pair of clothes from the bedside table and handing them to Su Lin: "Su Lin, this is your first day at work. This is your dad's company, you can't just leave it here."
Su Lin nodded: "Okay, I'll get up right away. If Xiao Wan wants to say I slept so late, it's all your fault for locking me out."
"How can you blame me for this?" Lin Xiaowan's eyes widened.
Su Lin nodded; "Of course."
After he finished speaking, he had already put on a short-sleeved shirt and pants.
Xia Shiyu felt it was inappropriate for Su Lin to be dressed so casually, so she said, "Su Lin, is it really suitable for you to go to '847' dressed like this?"
Su Lin patted his thigh: "There's nothing wrong with it, I think it's fine. Xiao Yu has made breakfast, right? Let's go to the company after breakfast."
"You still have the appetite to eat breakfast?"
"Of course, it's just going to work. There's not much to do. I'll probably just be getting to know the company's structure and operating model these next few days. You two are just too worried. The company won't function without me."
"You always have a bunch of fallacies, I can't argue with you, let Xiaowan do it."
Lin Xiaowan shook her head: "Su Lin is hopeless, I can't argue with him."
"But speaking of which, Su Lin, if you want the two of us to go too, what are we supposed to do with Xiao Yu?"
Su Lin blurted out, "Of course, she'll be my assistant. Xiao Yu will be the assistant, and Xiao Wan will be the secretary. The secretary will do the work when needed, and nothing else... Ah~!! Xiao Wan, why are you pinching me?"
Lin Xiaowan's beautiful eyes flashed with malice: "Do you think you're still in your own company, able to do whatever you want? Your mind is full of unhealthy things every day. I wish I could pry open your head and see what's inside."
Su Lin chuckled and said, "What else could it be? Of course, it's all you guys."
