Lin Group.
Lin Jianjun and the others had already returned to the staff dormitory.
"Yuelan! The room is a bit dirty, please clean it up."
Looking at the somewhat messy and dirty environment.
Lin Jianjun's good mood instantly disappeared, and he frowned as he gave orders to his little wife.
"Mm, okay. Leave it to me, darling!"
Bai Yuelan smiled sweetly, rolled up her sleeves, and began cleaning the room with a broom.
Such a virtuous appearance.
Made the smile on Lin Jianjun's face deepen, thinking to himself, with such a beautiful wife, what more could a man want?
He then walked over to the sofa in the center of the room and sat down comfortably.
Meanwhile, in the unseen part behind him.
Bai Yuelan's once sweet smile was now filled with impatience and irritation.
She hadn't cleaned or done chores herself for many years.
She remembered that back in the Lin family, she would either send Lin Xuan to do it or ask the maid to handle it.
But now, she had to do it herself...
"Hmph. I'm exhausted."
"This damn guy, all he does is torment me."
"I told him we should stay at my brother's place for a while, it's better than being cramped in this rundown house."
"But he refused for the sake of his so-called male pride, and now he's making me suffer like this?!"
"........"
Bai Yuelan showed dissatisfaction on her face and used the broom to angrily poke the ground, venting her frustration.
"Yuelan, while you're at it, make some food. I'll take a nap and want some porridge when I wake up."
"Ah... oh, okay! Darling, get some rest! I'll start cooking after I finish cleaning."
Lin Jianjun's voice suddenly came from the sofa, startling Bai Yuelan, and she quickly turned to respond sweetly.
But inside, she was even more irritated because she had to cook.
Eat, eat, eat.
Why don't you just eat yourself to death?!
Isn't takeout good enough? Why do I have to cook for you?
You have some nerve!!!
But even though she was unhappy, Bai Yuelan could only keep encouraging herself.
She comforted herself...
It's just temporary, I can bear with it.
She wanted to call her son for help, but after calling out a few times, Lin Hao seemed to not hear, hiding in the corner playing on his phone.
Sigh~~
Bai Yuelan sighed, gritted her teeth, and continued working herself.
But after all these years of living a life of luxury, she was not used to doing such hard work!
After just two minutes of cleaning, she felt sore all over, clenching her fists and pounding her back.
She wanted to stop and take a break, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and kept going...
Endure!
I will endure!!!
Half an hour later.
Lin Jianjun, who had been lying on the sofa, fast asleep.
Suddenly, he smelled the fragrance of rice and slowly woke up.
"Honey, you're awake. Come eat!"
"Mm."
Lin Jianjun rubbed his sleepy eyes, and just as he sat up, his phone in his pocket rang.
He glanced at the caller ID: Marketing Manager.
Hmm???
Could something have gone wrong with the Beauty Ointment?!
"(#O′) Hello! It's me, Lin Jianjun."
"Chairman, congratulations! Our group is about to reach its peak!"
As soon as the phone was answered.
A man's jubilant voice came from the other end, expressing congratulations.
"The market reaction to the ointment has been fantastic. Sales have skyrocketed. In just half a day since its release, it has already surpassed 50 million."
"Unless something unexpected happens, sales will soon break a billion, and at this rate..."
"......."
After hearing the marketing manager's report.
Lin Jianjun was first stunned, then a look of wild joy appeared on his face.
"Hahaha..."
"Good, good, good! But you all need to keep up the hard work!"
"Make sure to urge the production department to increase output, so we don't face a supply shortage..."
"......."
After expertly motivating his subordinates, Lin Jianjun hung up the phone, his mouth still curling with a look of extreme joy.
After hardship comes the reward, after hardship comes the reward!!!
Look at all the frustration I've had recently, now...
Finally, the moment of turning things around!!!
Since Lin Jianjun had the speakerphone on when he took the call.
The mother and son, Lin Hao and his mother, also heard the exciting news and were both thrilled.
"Daddy~~"
"Honey~~"
The mother and son, overwhelmed with joy, ran to Lin Jianjun and hugged him from both sides.
The three of them shared their feelings at that moment, fantasizing about the future after the rise of the Lin family...
Just then.
A phone ringing suddenly broke the hard-earned family atmosphere.
Lin Jianjun frowned, took out his phone, and glanced at the caller ID, immediately feeling a chill down his spine.
"Quiet, quiet. Lord Hu is calling, it must be about that several billion loan."
Lord Hu?
When the infamous figure from the magic city, Lord Hu, was mentioned, Lin Hao and his mother quickly shut their mouths.
Soon, Lin Jianjun nervously picked up the phone.
"Lord Hu! Did you call me about that several billion debt?"
"Don't worry! It's just a few billion, I'll pay you back soon, principal and interest."
Hearing Lin Jianjun's somewhat flattering tone, the person on the other end of the line seemed very pleased.
A faint laugh came from the other side:
"Brother Lin, you're being too polite! It's just a few billion, how could I possibly call just to collect the debt?"
"I just heard that your company is doing well recently, I wanted to congratulate you."
"By the way, I'd like to invite you for a drink tomorrow and discuss some business cooperation."
"........"
Cooperation?
Our businesses are miles apart, what cooperation could there be?!
Though Lin Jianjun was puzzled.
But since he still owed a huge debt, he didn't dare to refute and could only respond with agreement.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Jianjun's face darkened immediately.
He had a feeling that the other party...
Wasn't here with good intentions?!
"Honey, is everything okay? Why is Lord Hu suddenly calling you?"
"Daddy, could he have some kind of scheme?"
Listening to the worried words of his wife and son.
While Lin Jianjun was touched, he didn't want to show any weakness. He waved his hand and said confidently: "Ah! You're just overthinking, what could possibly happen?"
"Isn't it just an invitation to have drinks tomorrow and talk about the loan? Don't worry! We can use this opportunity..."
"We can also get to know Lord Hu, this big shot, and turn misfortune into fortune!"
"Moreover, our company is flourishing. Once our products completely dominate the magic city..."
"Next, we'll expand into neighboring provinces, and eventually nationwide, until the entire world uses our Lin family ointment."
"By then, what is Zhao Hu? In front of the Lin family, he won't even be worthy of carrying my shoes!"
"Hmph! I never expected it! After that rebellious son left, the Lin family's turning point came so quickly, hahaha..."
…..
The more Lin Jianjun spoke, the more excited he became, unable to stop himself from laughing loudly.
At this moment.
He seemed to see the glorious future of the Lin family, so much so that even he started to believe it.
Seeing Lin Jianjun so determined and confident.
Lin Hao and his mother instantly felt more at ease, smiles appearing on their faces.
They couldn't help but imagine the glory and treatment they would have once they became the children of a first-tier family in the Magic City, and a prestigious wife...
