The next day.
When Su Qingge regained consciousness, all she saw was still an empty, hollow darkness.
Did I fall asleep?
I actually fell asleep???
How long have I been asleep for...
With no concept of time and unable to perceive the outside world, Su Qingge suddenly felt panic.
She was afraid that she, like the protagonists in some movies, would wake up decades later.
Waking up after decades.
Wait, this familiar scent...
Although she couldn't move, Su Qingge could still smell the faint, familiar fragrance of flowers.
It was... the scent of violets.
Upon smelling this familiar scent, Su Qingge felt a sense of peace.
This identical scent...
It should still be the same violet that Lin Xuan gave me.
Where is Lin Xuan? Where is he?
If it were usual, after giving me violets, he would have held my hand and sat beside me, talking to me...
I can smell the scent, but not see the familiar person.
Su Qingge felt very uncomfortable, with a sense of loss and unease in her heart.
Click!
"Qingge! Your house is so big, I had to run quite a distance just to go to the bathroom."
With the sound of the door opening, that familiar voice rang out, and Su Qingge's heart, which had been suspended, instantly relaxed.
He... is still here!
Then...
Su Qingge then sensed someone sitting beside her, and the warmth of a familiar hand touched her palm once more.
"Qingge! Your grandpa is really efficient. He just got the prescription from me last night, and today he's already overseeing the production."
"His energy is even more vigorous than that of young people..."
Hearing the familiar way of complaining and the content of his complaints.
Su Qingge finally relaxed completely.
She had deduced from the few words that only one night had passed...
After a while...
"Alright, Qingge! It's time for the beloved massage session, hehehe..."
Listening to Lin Xuan's creepy laughter, Su Qingge couldn't help but chuckle.
'This laugh... why does it sound so much like a villain?!'
'If you have the guts, go ahead and take advantage of me.'
'It sounds nice, but he's still doing the proper massage. Am I really that unappealing...'
…..
In the dark consciousness space, Su Qingge kept complaining.
After spending such a long time together...
At this point, Su Qingge no longer felt uncomfortable with Lin Xuan's proximity.
Instead, she secretly hoped that Lin Xuan would be a little less proper with her.
That would prove her charm...
At this moment...
Perhaps Su Qingge herself didn't realize that her misandry had completely failed in front of Lin Xuan.
While Lin Xuan's side was filled with unspoken affection...
Lin family villa.
Smoke filled the air.
Lin Jianjun, with a grim expression, sat on the sofa, constantly smoking.
At his feet, if you looked closely, there were already piles of cigarette butts.
"Dad! The total amount of liquid funds we can withdraw from the company is 2 billion."
"This is already the limit; any more might seriously affect the company's operations."
Next to Lin Jianjun.
Lin Hao furrowed his brows and stated the amount of funds he had found.
However, Lin Jianjun had already anticipated this amount.
He exhaled a deep puff of white smoke and continued asking: "So how much did we manage to raise by selling some luxury homes, villas, cars, and stocks over the past few days?"
"Dear, these things were handled by me, and all of them together sold for 500 million."
Wearing a body-hugging skirt, Bai Yuelan yawned and replied.
She looked exhausted, with dark circles around her eyes.
Not only her, but Lin Jianjun and his son were also in the same state.
These past few days, they had been working to gather the 3 billion.
They had used every method imaginable, busy to the point where they didn't even have time to eat or sleep.
But none of the three dared to rest...
After all, according to the rumors they had heard.
Recently, not only some ambitious shareholders in the boardroom.
But also, major families in Magic City had shown interest in buying shares from Lin Xuan.
To prevent their rightful shares from falling into other hands.
Lin Jianjun could only grit his teeth and find ways to raise the necessary funds.
"This is only 2.5 billion! It's still not enough..."
Hearing that they were still a few billion short of the 3 billion, Lin Jianjun's face immediately darkened.
Seeing this, Bai Yuelan and her son quickly began to express their loyalty.
"Dear, I've bought a lot of jewelry, clothes, and other luxury goods over the years."
"I'll go pawn them all, they should be worth something..."
Ah... this?
Looking at his beloved wife, Lin Jianjun's heart warmed, feeling deeply moved.
At that moment, his son Lin Hao also began his performance, pulling out a bank card and placing it on the wooden table.
"Dad, I know our family is going through a tough time."
"So, I've also secretly pawned my clothes, watches, sports cars, and other designer items."
"Including the savings from Mom and me over the years, we've raised a total of 100 million!"
Facing the bank card on the table.
Lin Jianjun felt that the card was like a glaring sun, causing his tears to well up.
The whole card seemed to radiate the scent of family affection.
"Xiao Hao, Yuelan! It's my fault, I, Lin Jianjun, have made you both suffer!"
"Don't worry, once we get through this crisis, I'll repay you both for what you've lost, with interest."
"And Hao'er, you'll be the only son and heir of Lin Jianjun from now on."
"As for that ungrateful son, I'll pretend he was hit by a car. His life or death is no longer my concern..."
"...."
Lin Jianjun was truly moved, pulling mother and son into his arms as he spoke from the heart.
The plan succeeded?!
This old fool completely trusts us!
It's worth it, we've even put out our last savings.
In the places Lin Jianjun couldn't see, Lin Hao and his mother exchanged glances, both clearly showing their pride and joy.
In order to fully gain Lin Jianjun's trust.
Lin Hao and his mother had brought out all their years of ill-gotten gains, just for this moment.
Now, though they were penniless and broke.
But as long as the "beauty ointment" that Lin Jianjun mentioned is released, everything could turn around.
The Lin family might soar to new heights, becoming a top-tier family.
And at that time, the rewards they would get...
Incalculable!!!
At this thought, Lin Hao couldn't help but smile widely.
But the smile quickly pulled at the wound on his face.
The intense pain made Lin Hao gasp, and he gritted his teeth in anger at Lin Xuan, the one responsible for all of this.
But he couldn't help but sneer in satisfaction:
"Hmph! Lin Xuan, although you have 3 billion, I have the whole Lin family!"
"As long as the Lin family is in my hands, wealth will come rolling in."
"Once I fully develop, I'll use the family power your mother built to crush you underfoot!"
"Hahaha..."
