Chapter 27: The Worries of a Rich Second Generation

  They ordered several small dishes, and before all the food had arrived, Lin Jun Jie was back.

  "How come you're back so soon?" Jia Kai asked. "Don't stay with your old man for a while longer."

  "I don't want to listen to those two old foxes bickering with each other" Lin Junjie took a sip of tea "The old man from the Jin family and my father are birds of a feather, they're in the jewelry business, and within two years they wanted to get into the auction world. My father was envious of their jadeite jewelry business, so the two of them have been calculating each other for several years, neither gaining an advantage. Now they're sitting together thinking about becoming in-laws, but deep down aren't they still plotting against each other's assets? Hypocrites."

  It turned out that the two families had come for a blind date, and Lin Junjie was clearly very opposed to this matter.

  "I remember your sister just graduated from college? Does she agree?" Hao Tianyang asked.

  "She's going to graduate school, just thinking about it makes me angry. She originally had a boyfriend she'd been dating for three years, but our family head just gave that kid 100,000 yuan and sent him packing. Three years of feelings, my sister hasn't wanted to talk about love again since then. What an idiot, 100,000 yuan, not even close to the amount of private money my sister has! Lin Junjie continued to vent his frustrations, "Now they want to sacrifice her happiness for the sake of gaining more benefits for the family."

  The starry night fell silent, and the luxurious family feuds that only existed on TV were happening right before my eyes. Even the rich second generation may not necessarily be happy.

  Yu Jia Kai and Hao Tian Yang were also at a loss for words on how to persuade him.

  "What if your sister doesn't like the son of the Jin family?" Xing Ye asked.

  "What's the point if she doesn't like it? She and that young master Jin are just like two wooden puppets, what right do they have to speak up? You don't believe me, after this meal is over, they'll be able to settle the marriage." Lin Junjie downed the beer in his cup in one gulp.

  Xīng yè gave him some dishes in a bowl, and he wanted to pour wine. Xīng yè quickly took the bottle and opened it. Xīng yè knew that when one's mood is bad, drinking makes one drunk more easily.

  "Junjie, you'll be driving later, don't drink anymore." Hao Tianyang also advised him.

  JJ Lin didn't drink, ate a mouthful of food and continued: "My sister is weak and doesn't dare to resist my old man, but I think the eldest son of the Jin family isn't someone who can be easily bullied, unless he has ambitions and married my sister in order to swallow up our family."

  "People like that are the most terrifying, they can sacrifice anything for their own benefit, emotions and marriage mean nothing to them." Jia Kai expressed his opinion.

  "As I see it, Jin's abacus calculation isn't very good either." Xing Ye said slowly.

  "Hmm" The three of them looked at her curiously, waiting for her to continue speaking.

  "A daughter married out is like water splashed out, you have your family to rely on. With your father's shrewdness, he will never give up his son and give the family property to a daughter, so even if they marry your sister, they probably won't get anything."

  The three of them nodded in agreement, thinking that what Xing Ye said made sense.

  "In fact, the Jin family should have arranged a marriage for their daughter to marry you. If you had a son, he would be the rightful heir. If something were to happen to you, everything would go to your son, right? After all, that child has half of the Jin family's bloodline in them. Later on, it would be easy for them to interfere with your family's business and slowly take control of your family's assets."

  Three people gazed at the starry night with unbelievable eyes.

  "Did you say Jun Jie had an accident? You can't be saying that the Jin family intentionally harmed him, could you?" Hao Tian Yang asked disbelievingly.

  She nodded in agreement under the starry night sky, acknowledging he was right.

  Jia Kai patted Xing Ye's head on this starry night, "What is going through that little brain of yours? You can even think of something like this?"

  "Starry night, pouting mouth, waving away Jia Kai's hand, 'Don't you guys watch TV? That's how they act in the dramas!'"

  Both of them let out a sigh of relief at the same time, I said, it was originally seen on TV.

  Looking back, it seems that using this method, the possibility of success is still quite large.

  "Even if Jun Jie doesn't have any accidents, as long as the Jin family's daughter becomes his wife, there are many things that can't be hidden from one's closest person, right?" The three of them didn't know what she was trying to express and mechanically nodded. "That makes it easier, the Lin family is in the antique business, antiques are worth a lot of money, as long as they grasp some information and sabotage a few deals, the Lin family will face financial difficulties, if they need to borrow money won't they turn to their children's in-laws for help? They'll take advantage of that to bring up the idea of investing together, won't you have to agree?"

  Three people were shocked by San Ye's words, and after a long while, Jia Kai asked: "What if they don't agree to let them invest?"

  "Then they will propose that the shares be held in the name of Jin's daughter, your wife from the Lin family. You would probably think that it is still under the Lin family's control, wouldn't you? But what if they get divorced? Or what if his wife agrees to transfer them to someone else? You have no right to stop them."

  "How come your family's old man spent years trying to figure it out but couldn't succeed, yet you solved it so easily?" Lin Junjie said after being silent for half a day.

  "It's easy to say, but it's not necessarily possible to do," Xing Ye said with embarrassment.

  "It's a good thing my dad didn't hear this conversation, or else he would have really done it." Lin Junjie said with self-mockery.

  "I'm just casually saying this, but you can't tell anyone, especially your father."

  Xing Yeyu's cautious appearance made Lin Junjie laugh, "If my old man knew you said that, he'd probably force me to marry you immediately and help him calculate a few more companies."

  Yu Jia Kai and Hao Tian Yang also came back to their senses, hearing Lin Jun Jie's words and couldn't help but laugh along.

  "On a starry night, he muttered to himself: 'Why don't you just marry the daughter of the Jin family? I have a way to not only marry their daughter but also plot against their family property. Do you want to hear it or not? How about it? You don't want to listen? Then I'll go tell your old man directly, maybe he'll think my plan is feasible and even give me a big red envelope as a reward."

  "No way, little girl, can't I be wrong? Otherwise, I'll give you a red envelope first," Lin Junjie said: "Anyway, I won't marry Jin Weiwei."

  "Why? That girl is so pretty!" Xing Ye asked Lin Jun Jie, referring to their brief encounter just now.

  Even under the starry night, Xing Yu still saw that Jin Weiwei had a crush on Lin Junjie, because when the girl talked to Lin Junjie, there was an unusual sparkle in her eyes.

  "Prettiness is not the only standard for measuring a good girl." Hao Tianyang spoke up for his good friend.

  "If my old man dares to force me to marry someone I don't like, then I dare to tell him that I'm gay and I like men." Lin Junjie said with hatred.

  "Poof!" Jia Kai spat out a mouthful of tea, while Hao Tianyang choked and coughed violently.

  "Isn't that right? Lin Junjie, you're too much! If you're gay, how are others supposed to look at us?" Yu Jiakai shouted.

  "So, Jia Kai and Tian Yang, you two are my last hope now. You will definitely help me out, right?" Lin Jun Jie said with a deliberate twist of his waist in a playful, coquettish tone.

  Everyone made vomiting gestures and burst out laughing.

  The door was pushed open again with a loud "bang", and it was still Jin Weiwei who came in.

  "You're happy now, just a moment ago you looked like someone owed you money with that dark face." Jin Weiwei sat down beside Lin Junjie.

  "Is there something you want?" Lin Jun Jie asked indifferently.

  "What's wrong? Can't I come find you for no reason?" Jin Weiwei looked at Lin Junjie not speaking, and said: "My brother took your sister shopping, my parents left in Uncle's car, Uncle asked you to send me"

  "I have friends, how can I go see you off?" Lin Jun Jie said impatiently.

  "Let your friend take a taxi? I'll pay for the fare. You can just send me off, that's all." Jin Weiwei said nonchalantly.

  She sighed under her breath, this girl really is brainless. Men still like gentle girls, even if they throw some small tantrums, it's all about the situation. Especially don't speak ill of his friends in front of him, that's more hurtful than speaking ill of himself. Men's attitude towards friendship is something women can't understand. With an attitude like yours, Lin Jun Jie wouldn't even like you, and even if he was your boyfriend, it's only a matter of time before you break up.
