Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City
Chapter 78 - 79: Suddenly

Chapter 78: Chapter 79: Suddenly

Lin Sidong started doing business early, gifted with eloquence. Hearing him speak so beautifully, Zhou Zilan once again considered lending them money.

But.

Lin Siyuan, with strong determination, had long seen through the true character of his elder brother after numerous incidents over the years.

Were it not for the blood they shared, they would have long ceased contact;

"Brother, listen to you! Although my son Lin Hao has just graduated from high school, he already has business dealings with a CEO in Binhai. You don’t need to worry about his job."

Even Lin Siyuan, usually reserved, raised his voice slightly with pride at this point.

Over ten million yuan, a fortune his son earned that would take generations for others.

Without exaggeration, even Lin Sidong didn’t possess that much money.

Nevertheless, Lin Siyuan wouldn’t lend it to his elder brother, unable to forget the scars left over the years in his heart.

Moreover, he believed if he lent the money, it would be a futile effort.

"It looks like I’m going back empty-handed," laughed Lin Sidong, "No worries, this doesn’t affect our friendship."

"And two thousand yuan, we can cover that without needing to borrow from you," Lin Yue said dismissively and sarcastically.

Beside them, Zhu Wuqiao didn’t stop him.

Lin Hao’s eyes grew cold: "Lin Yue, this is my home. Think before you speak. Both your parents are here, some words you have no right to say."

"You..."

"Lin Yue!" Lin Sidong scolded him, and Lin Yue didn’t continue. Lin Weiwei glanced at Lin Hao, her eyes full of disgust.

The dinner was unpleasant, just as Lin Siyuan had anticipated. This family was clearly up to no good.

"Can’t even spare two thousand yuan, truly destitute," Lin Yue muttered as he left, driving off in his Mercedes.

In the car.

Zhu Wuqiao scoffed, "This whole family doesn’t appreciate our generous offer. We extended them a favor by asking to borrow money, yet they dared to refuse."

"Exactly, mom, dad, we aren’t even in need of that two thousand yuan, why would we borrow from them?" Lin Yue spoke, "Such poor relatives, asking them for two thousand yuan is like asking for their lives."

"You don’t understand," said Lin Sidong, "Show some respect when you talk. Regardless, he’s still my brother, your uncle."

After a pause, he continued: "Two thousand yuan is still money, don’t look down on it. We could have borrowed it and never paid it back, taking two thousand for free."

"Should we still go tomorrow if they’re hosting?" Lin Weiwei asked.

"We’ll go," replied Lin Yue as he drove, "of course we’ll go. Humph, that Lin Hao always so stern. He thinks he’s so great just for getting into Binhai University? Tomorrow I’ll show him who’s truly impressive!"

"Son, I support you. What’s so great about getting into university? He’s still no match for my son," Zhu Wuqiao said, "Weiwei, dress up nicely tomorrow and show them what it means to be truly wealthy."

Lin Sidong didn’t say much more beside them, his business intuition telling him that this time, the Lin Family seemed a bit different, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly why.

Eventually, he shook it off, "Regardless, make sure you all prepare well tomorrow to ensure we outshine Lin Hao. I want to see if his father still dares to say he doesn’t need me worrying."

...

Zhou Zilan spoke as she watched Lin Sidong and his family leave, "Lao Lin, why didn’t you lend them the money? We can afford two thousand yuan now. Are you still hung up over what happened before? Those things are in the past."

"Zilan, it’s not that simple. Remember when you were ill, we almost..." Lin Siyuan trailed off, "Anyways, those days are behind us. We mustn’t lend them money; I know them too well."

"Two thousand yuan, you think they don’t have it? Even if they don’t, Lin Sidong’s business friends could lend him that easily. Others would repay, but our money... heh."

Lin Siyuan didn’t continue, but Zhou Zilan knew what he meant - they hadn’t gotten back the ten thousand yuan they lent over a year ago.

"Alright, alright, it’s between you two brothers; I won’t interject anymore," changed Zhou Ziwei’s tone, "What are you two still standing around for? Go out and buy stuff; get ready for tomorrow’s feast."

"Alright, we’re going," Lin Siyuan said cheerfully, buoyed by the thought of his son’s achievements, taking Lin Hao to buy the things needed for tomorrow.

All the while, Lin Hao didn’t say much, with him there, similar incidents from the past wouldn’t recur.

He didn’t care about the issue of lending or not lending money.

For the afternoon, Lin Hao accompanied his father shopping, by the time they nearly finished, the sky had dimmed.

The neighbors in the small town also came to Lin Hao’s home in the evening to help prepare the food for tomorrow.

In the evening, Lin Hao planned to rest early, but as he was about to lie down, Lin Siyuan called out from outside, "Lin Hao, come out quick, your friend is here."

"What?"

Lin Hao was perplexed.

Friend, which friend?

He stepped outside, and saw two Land Rovers parked at the door. He immediately recognized Chen Liansheng in front of the cars.

Two Land Rovers, massive and imposing, had the neighbors staring wide-eyed, someone whispered, "Those two Land Rovers together must cost four to five hundred thousand!"

"Yeah, who could that be?"

"Not sure."

"..."

"Mr. Lin!" On seeing Lin Hao, Chen Liansheng hurried forward, "Sorry, sorry for coming so late."

"Alright, drive the cars to the backyard," Lin Hao said.

"Sure, Xiaofei, park Mr. Lin’s car," Chen Liansheng turned to his assistant.

In front of Lin Hao’s car, a young man nodded and drove away, soon after taking the other Land Rover there too.

"Lin Hao, aren’t you going to introduce us?" said Lin Siyuan.

"This is President Chen, Chen Liansheng," Lin Hao introduced, "This is my dad."

"Hello, uncle!" President Chen greeted Lin Siyuan with respect, continuously addressing him as uncle enthusiastically, leaving Lin Siyuan somewhat embarrassed, given Chen’s age was not much less than his.

"I heard uncle is celebrating Mr. Lin’s university acceptance, so I came especially." Chen Liansheng pulled out a thick red envelope, "A small token, please accept, uncle."

Lin Siyuan didn’t hold back, "Haha, good, good, Lin Hao, you entertain your friend well."

Lin Hao was slightly helpless; he hadn’t expected Chen Liansheng to come for this reason, "President Chen, how did you know about this?"

"Mr. Lin, what are you saying? We’re all in the same county, it’s easy to catch wind of anything going on here."

Chen Liansheng continued, "I’m just here to lead the way, tomorrow, Xiao Meng will come, and Director Sun too, they’ve already started preparing."
