Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Best Son-in-law_1

Meng Family, second floor.

In a study with the door wide open.

A mix of men and women were all smiles, surrounding a middle-aged man with slightly frosted hair tips, very spirited, admiring the calligraphy he had just written.

This middle-aged man was none other than Meng Bing’s father, Lin Weiwei’s uncle by marriage—Meng Haishan.

The gathering today was primarily to celebrate Meng Haishan’s birthday. Meng Haishan was an executive in a large mixed-ownership enterprise and had previously held a stable government job, even serving as a leader in name for a while, so he had quite a distinguished air about him.

The men and women in this room were all subordinates of Meng Haishan.

In between chatting with them, an itch to exhibit his skill overcame Meng Haishan, and he decided to showcase the calligraphy he had been refining for years.

It appeared that his writing was quite authentic, with a touch of ancient elegance, drawing rounds of cheers from those around him.

One said, "Leader’s inkwork is on par with the scholars and literati of the ancient times!"

Another remarked, "Mr. Meng has reached the level of a modern artist; perhaps this piece of calligraphy could even win an award and fetch a high price if it were sold!"

And some kept asking for a character or two.

After several rounds of praise, Meng Haishan laughed heartily, enjoying himself immensely.

...

As the topic of the endless compliments began to wane, someone decisively initiated a new topic:

"Hey, did you all know? I just heard downstairs that Mr. Meng’s daughter, Meng Bing, has found a great suitor for herself!"

"Oh? To be called a great suitor in Mr. Meng’s eyes, what kind of person must he be?" someone inquired further.

"Well, the man, of course, goes without saying, he must be handsome and talented! Otherwise, how could he be worthy of our Miss Meng Bing!" said the speaker.

Meng Haishan, hearing this, beamed with delight; putting down his brush, he sat down and turned his attention to the speaker.

The person, noticing the approving and encouraging look in the leader’s eyes, was suddenly energized.

The others, seeing Meng Haishan’s expression, silently kicked themselves for not bringing up the subject sooner, regretting the missed opportunity.

Knowing that Meng Haishan had only this one daughter, whom he cherished like a treasure, it should have been mentioned earlier; to not utilize such a great topic was a waste.

Although they couldn’t stir up the same topic again, the others weren’t fools and quickly followed with questions of their own.

"Isn’t that obvious? With Miss Bing Bing’s natural beauty, those like us who fall short in that regard shouldn’t even harbor thoughts about it—it’s like a toad lusting after a swan’s meat. What I want to ask, though, is about the young man’s qualifications and family background," someone else asked.

Excellent question!

Meng Haishan couldn’t help but give an appreciative glance, as he too was thinking of taking the opportunity to talk about the young man he viewed as a prospective son-in-law. Although the man wasn’t exactly young, as soon as family background came into the conversation, he was sure to overshadow everyone else!

"All I heard is that he is a director at Zhongjing Media," the speaker revealed.

Zhongjing Media, a director!

These words made everyone surrounding them click their tongues in astonishment.

Their company, like Zhongjing Media, was also considered a large enterprise, but large enterprises have their hierarchies, with some feasting on meat and others merely sipping soup.

Zhongjing Media was among those feasting on meat.

It was said that even a mid-level manager at that company could earn tens of thousands a month, and directors’ earnings were jaw-dropping, reaching thirty to forty thousand a month. Even though Zhongjing was not a top-tier city, such income was definitely considered upper-middle class even in the biggest cities!

Of course, being able to get into Zhongjing Media and secure a director’s position was no small feat; it was akin to being a dragon amongst men!

"Impressive, truly impressive!" someone couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up.

"To have such capability at such a young age, I am convinced!" another exclaimed admiringly.

"When we meet him later, I must get closer and chat about some career experience—that’s stuff money can’t buy, invaluable indeed!" yet another person commented.

"Ahem!" Meng Haishan coughed.

Everyone immediately quieted down a bit.

"Where’s Yin? He’s quite a bit older than Bingbing, about the same as Wang," Meng Haishan said.

The people who had just been buzzing about the young talents suddenly looked at each other in dismay.

Wang?

Wang is almost forty years old, so it turns out Mr. Meng’s daughter Meng Bing found herself an old man!

This was somewhat awkward.

"However, Yin’s family background is still quite impressive," Meng Haishan added bureaucratically, pausing for a moment, "His father is Yin Haoran."

Yin Haoran? The crowd was stunned.

Then someone exclaimed in surprise, "The boss of Zhongjing Haoran Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.!"

When it came to Yin Haoran in Zhongjing, he was definitely famous for one thing: wealth!

During the boom in real estate, he made a fortune and spent lavishly, as if money meant nothing to him. It’s said that for his own father’s birthday celebration, he booked the ten largest restaurants in Zhongjing at once, hosting banquets for ten days straight. Anyone who came to celebrate could just walk in and join in the feast of exotic delicacies.

At that time, it sparked a craze.

There were even rumors that the Yin Family’s real estate ventures had unearthed Shen Wansan’s legendary treasure basin.

Of course, those were just street rumors, but their wealth was real.

It was said that both sons of the Yin Family didn’t work in their father’s company but were placed elsewhere.

To everyone’s surprise, one of them was actually at Zhongjing Media!

In light of this, the director’s salary they had just been gasping over might seem like mere pocket change to him.

Everyone was filled with wonder and shock.

"Wow, amazing! Our Mr. Meng is going to be in-laws with Yin Haoran!"

"My god, after that, why would Mr. Meng even need to work, he could just enjoy his life!"

"Tsk tsk, the Yin Family of Zhongjing, tsk tsk!"

Amid the numerous exclamations, Meng Haishan had a smug smile on his face; this was what he wanted to hear.

His daughter Meng Bing might have found an older man, but he was from a grand household others couldn’t hold a candle to!

Outside the study, Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei happened to come by and overheard the conversation inside.

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but be shocked, her mouth agape.

"Is Director Yin Dongfeng’s family really that impressive?" Lin Weiwei whispered to Bai Xiaosheng, but her eyes betrayed a hint of skepticism.

Because at this stage, with Bai Xiaosheng focusing on work, that Director Yin didn’t act arrogantly or presumptuously, and kept a low profile like everyone else.

He really didn’t look like the son of a real estate tycoon.

Bai Xiaosheng didn’t immediately respond to Lin Weiwei’s comment.

"Red Lotus, retrieve for me all news regarding Zhongjing Haoran Real Estate Co., Ltd., including their recent performance trends, and analyze..."

"Yes, Master... Searching... Search complete... Data analysis in progress... Here are the results..."

With just a thought from Bai Xiaosheng, Red Lotus provided the results.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

"Zhongjing Haoran, two years ago, indeed had a skyrocketing reputation, even able to talk business with Song Changkong," Bai Xiaosheng remarked with a sigh, "Unfortunately, in these past two years, they’ve been reduced to nothing but a shell."

"Ah, what do you mean?" Lin Weiwei asked in surprise.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled without a word, "Let’s go, we’re off to meet your uncle by marriage!"
