Chapter 165: Chapter 165 The old man wants to guide Su Chengyu_1
Lin Zhihua gave Lin Chu Yin an encouraging look. Their father, Lin Zhengxun, had personally stated that whichever of the two brothers could win over Su Chengyu, would become the heir of the Lin Family.
Initially, Lin Zhihua felt that he was at a disadvantage as Su Chengyu clearly had a closer relationship with Lin Chuxue. However, as Lin Chu Yin correctly pointed out, not many men could tolerate Lin Chuxue’s temper, especially accomplished men like Su Chengyu.
Now that Lin Chu Yin seemed to be overtaking, Lin Zhihua was delighted.
In contrast, the faces of Lin Zhiyuan and his wife looked somewhat unpleasant.
"Old Master Lin, the Mr. Su you mentioned, is he the one who fought a duel in the sports hall a few days ago and defeated both Cui Yan and Hou Congsheng by himself?" asked a boss on the side.
"That’s correct, it’s him." Lin Zhengxun stroked his beard in confirmation.
"It seems that the Lin Family has a deep connection with Mr. Su?"
"Indeed! Mr. Su has done a great favor for our Lin Family. I was suffering from a terminal disease, helpless to medicine, but it was Mr. Su who cured me and saved my life!" explained Lin Zhengxun.
"Oh? Not only is Mr. Su powerful - a semi-grandmaster at a young age - but he is also proficient in medical skills?" The meeting room was filled with astonishment.
"Mr. Su’s medical skills are miraculous." said Lin Zhengxun.
A boss from out of town said, "I have heard some about this Mr. Su in Lin Jiang. His reputation has been growing rapidly. A truly outstanding figure among the younger generation."
As the crowd began to discuss Su Chengyu, they couldn’t help but admire him.
Yuan Zhendong, a sworn brother of Lin Zhengxun, asked, "Old Lin, your illness was cured by this Mr. Su?"
Lin Zhengxun nodded, and Yuan Zhendong added, "This Mr. Su is truly remarkable. You must introduce him to us later."
Just then, a somewhat discordant voice sounded.
"No one can deny his talent, but how long this so-called prodigy would live and how far he could go remains uncertain. I would advise those of you who wish to associate with him to be cautious, lest you get yourself scorched."
The speaker was a man in his fifties, dressed in a white Tang suit. His temples were flecked with grey, his gaze sharp, his cheekbones prominent, features having a hint of unkindness.
This was Tang Jin, ranked third in Lin Jiang’s martial artist rankings, a top-tier grandmaster and the founder of the Tang Martial Arts Center.
"What do you mean by that, Master Tang?" someone immediately asked.
"Although I didn’t go to watch the duel that day, as far as I know, Su Chengyu broke one of Hou Congsheng’s legs and chopped off one of Cui Yan’s hands. Do you think the Hou family and the Cai Fist Sect will leave it at that? Besides, we also have Hong Zhen Ting here in Lin Jiang, keeping a close watch. Su Chengyu is more likely to meet with disaster than fortune."
Tang Jin said dismissively.
"Master Tang makes a valid point. Although Su Chengyu has great potential, surviving is also a problem." someone chimed in.
"There have always been so-called prodigies in the world of martial arts. But those who don’t know how to lay low will inevitably meet an early end. What counts an unripe prodigy? Nothing more than a flash in the pan."
After hearing Tang Jin’s words, Lin Zhengxun became more convinced of his own judgment. It was possible to network with Su Chengyu, but he should not suck up to him like before. It would be enough to maintain a friendly relationship.
In case things didn’t go well, the Lin family could pull out in time without being implicated by Su Chengyu.
"Whether he withers or rises, we will see it for ourselves. After all, it’s not for us to decide! At the end of the day, Mr. Su has shown kindness to our Lin Family."
Lin Zhengxun, having been hardened by many years in the business world, naturally knew how to balance the situation. Under the pretext of repaying kindness, even if Su Chengyu was to fall one day, neither the Hou family nor the Cai Fist Sect would trouble the Lin family over this matter.
"Master Tang, from your words, it seems like you’re taking pleasure at Mr. Su’s misfortunes. Could it be that Mr. Su’s skills have threatened you and made you worried about losing your ranking?"
Zhou Chaoming was also among the guests. Hearing Tang Jin’s snide remarks, he immediately retorted.
"Ridiculous! Would I fear him? He’s only a semi-grandmaster, not a real grandmaster. I haven’t even considered him a threat! If I were to make a move, I could take him down in ten moves! He’s just a young lad. When he sees me, he should respectfully address me as Master Tang. He’s not yet qualified to be a threat to me."
Tang Jin huffed, embodying the authority of a grandmaster.
"Correct! There’s indeed a big gap between a semi-grandmaster and a real grandmaster. Master Tang doesn’t need to take Su Chengyu seriously."
Some bosses who were on good terms with Tang Jin immediately came forward to help Tang Jin.
"Enough! All of you here today are esteemed guests of our Lin family. We’re just chatting casually, let’s not spoil the harmony." Lin Zhengxun quickly played peacemaker.
With a pride-filled face, Tang Jin said, "Isn’t Su Chengyu coming? If he dares challenge me, I can give him some guidance to let him know the gap between a semi-grandmaster and a grandmaster."
Su Chengyu parked his car in the underground car park of the Oasis Hotel and then took the elevator directly to the third floor.
There was a large crowd celebrating Lin Zhengxun’s birthday, and it was very lively. Although the banquet hadn’t started yet, the banquet hall was almost full.
Su Chengyu walked towards the snack area to get something to eat, then went to find a seat.
Since he walked into the banquet hall, Su Chengyu had heard many people discussing him. Although five days had passed since the duel in the sports hall, it was still a hot topic, and currently the talk of the town.
"This Mr. Su is truly amazing. He’s in his twenties and already a semi-grandmaster. I don’t think it will be long before he enters the top three in the martial artist rankings."
"It’s a pity that I was out of town that day and couldn’t go to the scene to watch the duel. It’s such a shame."
"I was there at the scene, and it was so exciting. Before the duel started, not many people had high hopes for him. But right from the start, Mr. Su was absolutely dominant. Fighting alone against two opponents, it was truly breath-taking!"
Those who had been on the scene to watch the duel vividly described the situation at that time to everyone around them.
"Stop bragging! What’s so great? Just a mere semi-grandmaster, being blown up by you guys as if he’s invincible in the world."
A young man in his twenties sat down, his face filled with contempt.
"Tang Junior has arrived..."
Someone next to them recognized that this was Tang Jin’s son, Tang Jie, and immediately gave up his seat for him.
"Still thinking about entering the top three of the martial artist rankings? Do you guys think my dad doesn’t exist? Many people spend their lives being semi-grandmasters without becoming real grandmasters." Tang Jie scoffed.
"Tang Junior is right. Su Chengyu does have some skills, but don’t overpraise him."
"But Su Chengyu is still young. A semi-grandmaster in his twenties will surely become a grandmaster. There’s even hope he might become a great grandmaster." Some people didn’t agree with Tang Jie’s words.
"So what? At least for now, he’s not a grandmaster. How can he compare to my father? No, even when he sees me, Su Chengyu should behave himself and be respectful. Does he dare to be presumptuous?"
Tang Jie looked proud, and at this time, Su Chengyu was not far away. He heard every word clearly.
