Chapter 260: Being Angered

Zhou Jintai and his wife leaned their heads together, wanting to see the numbers above.

Seeing the two stretch their heads over, Lin Yang gave a slight smile and said to them.

"I'm a bit nearsighted, can't see the numbers above clearly; come help me look."

Zhou Jintai let out a cold snort and walked over to Lin Yang's side.

"Hmph, still want to show off in front of me?"

"Let me see how much money is in this card."

"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, millions...."

The more he counted, the softer Zhou Jintai's voice became, until he finally fell silent.

The woman wearing a cheongsam, seeing her husband silent, said displeasedly.

"Why aren't you speaking? Just how much money does this loser have?"

Zhou Jintai himself also ran some small businesses, knowing what having that much cash meant.

After hearing his wife's words, he turned his head and glared at the woman, saying fiercely.

"If you won't speak, then shut up!"

Then he forced a smile at Lin Yang.

"Sir, we just offended you; please be magnanimous and forgive us."

Now the woman who had been scolded became even angrier.

"Zhou Jintai, you're yelling at me for this loser?"

"You wretched woman, I told you to shut up—didn't you hear?"

After saying that, a heavy slap landed on his face.

That slap left the woman dazed.

"You actually hit me!"

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll divorce you right now—believe it or not!"

Seeing Zhou Jintai's fierce gaze, the woman instantly felt afraid.

Then she turned her gaze toward Huang Yiyi.

"It's all because of you, this jinx; whenever I meet you, something bad happens!"

She strode up to Huang Yiyi and raised her hand to slap her.

Huang Yiyi, frightened, closed her eyes and dared not look at her.

But her slap did not land.

Her wrist was seized by Lin Yang.

"Yiyi respects you as an elder, calling you 'second aunt'."

"You ought to act like an elder."

The woman whose wrist was grabbed shouted.

"Oh hey, let go of me, it hurts like crazy!"

Huang Yiyi also pleaded: "Mr. Lin, release my second aunt."

Only then did Lin Yang release the woman's wrist, snorting coldly as he said.

"If it weren't for Yiyi pleading for you, I would definitely give you a lesson."

The woman whose hand was released shouted.

"This is molestation, taking advantage of me."

Then she looked at Zhou Jintai and said.

"Husband, he took advantage of me; you must definitely vent my anger for me."

Lin Yang, hearing this, twitched the corner of his mouth.

In an instant, he felt as if his hands were unclean.

This person is utterly shameless.

Look at the powder on his face that's just falling to the ground.

The corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Oh dear, this lady, how utterly confident must you be to say something like that?"

"Ma'am?"

As soon as Lin Ying'er spoke, the woman flew into a rage.

"You little slut, what are you saying about me?"

Looking at the exposed woman, Lin Ying'er gave a hollow laugh.

"I mean, I just want to help you see yourself clearly."

"As for the god-knows-how-many layers of powder on your face, let's not talk about that first."

"Just look at the cheongsam you're wearing; following you is truly suffering."

"Your protruding belly makes people think you're three months pregnant if they don't know better."

"The crow's-feet at the corners of your eyes can't be covered even by ten layers of powder."

"And look at your broad shoulders and thick waist—without some psychological endurance, you wouldn't dare dress like that."

This string of sharp, cutting words made the woman's face flush and her neck thicken with anger.

She pointed at Lin Ying'er in anger, her hand trembling.

Then she said to Zhou Jintai.

"Are you going to teach that woman a lesson or not? If not, I'll divorce you!"

Zhou Jintai immediately walked up to her ear and said a few sentences.

"What, over forty billion?!"

The woman let out a gasp, hurriedly turning her gaze toward Lin Yang.

She once again sized Lin Yang up and down.

"She doesn't even have a car, a watch, or a large flat, how could she possibly have over forty billion?!"

Huang Yiyi hurriedly said, "Lin Yang really is very wealthy."

"His family's home is a large duplex villa, not a large flat."

"He doesn't drive because those who come to find him all drive themselves to pick him up."

Listening to Huang Yiyi's words, Zhou Jintai's eyes shifted.

He chuckled and said to Huang Yiyi.

"Yiyi, just now your second aunt and uncle were just joking with you."

Seeing Lin Yang look at him with contempt, Zhou Jintai gave an embarrassed laugh and said.

"We could say we're now acquainted after a fight."

"So, tonight I'll be the host; this young master, do me the honor of joining me for a meal."

"I thought that by lowering my stance, Lin Yang would at least give me some face."

"You think you're worthy of eating a meal with me?"

Those words made Zhou Jintai's face flush red then turn pale.

He stared at Lin Yang for a while, but Lin Yang's fierce gaze instead frightened him.

He gave an awkward smile and could only leave.

After he left, Lin Yang picked up the snow lotus and then departed.

After they left the shop, Lin Ying'er and Huang Yiyi apologized.

"Yiyi, I spoke that way about your second aunt; you won't be angry, will you?"

Huang Yiyi shook her head and said to Lin Ying'er.

"I know you said that for my sake."

Seeing Huang Yiyi not angry, Lin Ying'er also breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, she turned her gaze toward Lin Yang.

"Brother, you need to step it up and bring your sister-in-law home soon."

Huang Yiyi, standing nearby, heard that, glanced at Lin Yang, and her eyes dimmed a little.

Immediately afterward, she smiled again and said to Lin Yang.

"Lin Yang, keep it up!"

Lin Yang tapped his own head alone.

"What are you thinking? It's just a normal meal."

At that moment, his phone rang.

I thought it would be Lu Linglong's call, but as soon as it connected, Huo Zhidong's voice sounded.

"Mr. Lin, we're about to leave the southwest; can we meet?"

Lin Yang glanced at the time, pondered for a moment, and said.

"Sure, I'll come find you."

He handed the snow lotus to Lin Ying'er and went alone to the Tianjin Jiudian.

As Lin Yang was leaving, Lu Linglong did not forget to remind him.

"Brother, remember to come back early."

"Okay."

Tianjin Jiudian, the suite where the Huo family resides.

Lin Yang sat opposite Huo Zhidong, and the Old Master Huo also sat nearby.

After the three of them took a sip of tea, the Old Master Huo spoke first.

"Mr. Lin, we've heard about the matter of the Longevity Elixir."

"Your move of cutting off the source is truly ruthless."

"No wonder you didn't let us in before."

Listening to the Old Master Huo's words, Lin Yang understood their meaning.

He got straight to the point and said.

"I can let you act as the agent for the latest Longevity Elixir in Xianggang."

"Moreover, each time a new product is released, I will also provide it to you."

Huo Zhidong was delighted and quickly said.

"Then thank you, Mr. Lin."

"We will give you seventy percent of the profits!"

Lin Yang shook his head and said to Huo Zhidong.

"I don't want seventy percent."

Just as Huo Zhidong was feeling pleased, Lin Yang said.

"I want ninety percent of the profits!"

Huo Zhidong, who originally had a smile on his face, saw his smile freeze instantly.
