Saying this, Yu Jianhao pushed the check in front of Lin Bai.
Lin Bai politely pushed it back and said with a smile, "Uncle, I can accept your thanks, but you'd better take this check back."
Yu Jianhao didn't expect that Lin Bai would be able to remain calm and collected when faced with a huge check, without the slightest hint of greed.
His impression of Lin Bai was improved further.
However, the more he liked Lin Bai, the more he hoped that Lin Bai would take the check.
This was because he could tell that Lin Bai's family background was very ordinary.
Whether it was the way he dressed or the information revealed in his words, all of them proved that Lin Bai was just an ordinary person from an ordinary background.
For an ordinary person, five million yuan was enough to bring about a huge change to the entire family.
Even if it wasn't enough to change their fate, it could at least allow his entire family to live comfortably without having to constantly struggle for a living.
With this thought in mind, Yu Jianhao pushed the check back to Lin Bai.
He sincerely said to Lin Bai, "Don't feel embarrassed. You deserve it. Take it."
He didn't know that Lin Bai had already won the lottery and wasn't short of money at all.
He just relied on his own experience and assumed that Lin Bai had never seen such a large amount of money. He didn't dare to accept it and was embarrassed to accept it.
That was why he repeatedly tried to persuade him.
Lin Bai smiled indifferently and said, "There's really no need."
"Actually, Uncle, not only do you not have to give me so much money, you don't even have to thank me so much."
"Given my relationship with Jinmo, it's only right to save her. You don't have to thank me like this."
Yu Jianhao's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling.
"Your relationship with Jinmo?"
He repeated Lin Bai's words, and his tone had clearly turned cold.
Lin Bai turned to look at Yu Jinmo who was beside him and used his gaze to ask her if she wanted to reveal their relationship right now.
Without thinking, Yu Jinmo hugged Lin Bai's arm.
She said to Yu Jianhao, "Dad, we've been dating for more than a week. He's my boyfriend."
"So, you don't have to thank him so much. As his boyfriend, isn't it his duty to save me?"
Yu Jianhao's expression turned cold.
The good impression he had built up was now gone.
"Yu Jinmo, let go of him! This is so inappropriate!"
"Don't forget that you have a fiancé!"
Yu Jianhao was so angry that he slammed his hand against the table.
He had always doted on Yu Jinmo and rarely called her by her full name.
Now, it was enough to show that he was really angry.
It was the first time Yu Jinmo saw his father so angry and he was so scared that he withdrew his hand.
But he quickly reacted and hugged Lin Bai's arm again.
She suppressed the fear in her heart and said with a stiff neck, "I don't! I never agreed to that marriage! I don't acknowledge anyone else to be my fiancé!"
"I only recognize Lin Bai as my true lover! He's my future husband whom I want to spend the rest of my life with!"
Yu Jianhao was so angry that his face turned pale.
"Nonsense!"
"Little Wang is a talented person. Regardless of his family background, identity, or education, he's a perfect match for you!"
"How can this kid compare to him?"
"I think you're obsessed!"
The Little Wang that Yu Jianhao mentioned was called Wang Hao. He was the son of another influential financial corporation in the city.
Although the Wang family was slightly inferior in terms of business, their family had a wide network and had many connections in the capital.
On the other hand, the Yu family was the opposite. Although they had a lot of businesses, they lacked the resources of the upper echelons. As such, their development was limited and it was difficult for them to expand.
If the two families were to marry, it would be beneficial to both sides. It would be very beneficial to both parties' future development.
That was why Yu Jianhao made the decision to arrange this marriage with Wang Hao's father.
However, Yu Jinmo had never agreed to it. She even repeatedly emphasized to her father that she was already in love with someone else.
Previously, Yu Jianhao did not take it to heart. He thought that his daughter was just looking for excuses to reject the marriage.
Now, everything made sense. He knew that Yu Jinmo's resistance was all because of Lin Bai.
This made him even more disgusted with Lin Bai. He felt that it was all Lin Bai's instigation behind the scenes that caused his daughter to become so rebellious.
"Lin Bai, you're really good at tricks. Even I was almost fooled by you!"
"I think what Chen Yang said is right. You're a scheming, freeloading man who deliberately gets close to rich girls!"
"What hero saves the damsel in distress? Even if it was really such a coincidence, I think it's a trap that you deliberately set up!"
Yu Jianhao's anger was burning in his heart, but he couldn't bear to scold his precious daughter, so he vented all of his resentment onto Lin Bai.
After Lin Bai heard this, he sneered.
"Uncle, you are Jinmo's father. I didn't want to be rude to you."
"But I really have to say that you are blind. You have wasted so many years in the business world."
"You treat him as your in-law, and he treats you as his enemy. You can't even tell that he has planted spies around you. It's ridiculous."
Yu Jianhao was furious.
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Lin Bai said, "Why don't you send someone to check if you're spouting nonsense?"
"For Jinmo's sake, let me remind you that the person you trust the most is probably the person you suspect the most."
"For example, that Chen Yang."
"Uncle, don't you think that his hostility towards me is a little strange?"
Yu Jianhao's expression was livid.
"Nonsense!"
Lin Bai was too lazy to continue wasting his breath.
You can never wake up someone who's pretending to be asleep. It was useless to say anything to those who refused to believe in him.
"Anyway, I've already said what I need to say. It's up to you whether you listen or not. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Lin Bai stood up decisively and left.
Yu Jinmo also stood up and prepared to leave with him.
She said to Yu Jianhao, "Father, Lin Bai has never spoken carelessly. Since he said that Chen Yang is a spy arranged by the Wang family, it must be true."
"Whether you believe it or not, I hope that you can at least investigate it for my sake."
After saying that, she went out of the room to take chase.
Yu Jianhao looked at his daughter's back as she left and slammed his fist on the table angrily.
"Unfilial daughter!"
He didn't believe the old saying that a daughter couldn't be kept at home when she gets older, but now he felt that what the ancestors said made a lot of sense.
He really wanted to immediately order someone to kidnap Yu Jinmo and ground her. He didn't want her to have any contact with Lin Bai.
However, in the end, he still couldn't bear to treat his precious daughter like that.
"Hmph, so be it! When we find out that the kid surnamed Lin is spouting nonsense, let's see if you still believe him!"
With the intention of exposing Lin Bai's true colors, Yu Jianhao made a phone call in a huff.
"I want all the information on Chen Yang within an hour!"
