514: Chapter 514 Making Trouble 514: Chapter 514 Making Trouble After speaking, Mu Shanshan stood up and left on her own.
Lin Fei wanted to go back with her but was stopped by a look from Mu Tiancheng.
Once Mu Shanshan had left, Mu Tiansheng’s face looked extraordinarily grim, “I still can’t believe that Shaopeng could do such a thing.
It’s truly chilling.
It’s all my fault for not disciplining him enough, which led to the current situation.
Don’t worry, I will give you and Lanlan a proper explanation for this.”
Mu Tiancheng raised his hand, signaling to end the topic, and turned to talk about his daughter, “Actually, I’m not too keen on Lanlan taking the CEO position, but as you know her temperament, I have no way to influence her.”
“Yes, I am well aware that Lanlan is exceptionally capable, but…”
Speaking, Mu Tiansheng suddenly stopped and looked at Lin Fei, clearly wondering whether Lin Fei should hear what he was about to say next.
“I’ve already shared everything with Lin Fei, big brother, so just speak openly.”
Mu Tiansheng scrutinized Lin Fei for a moment and then spoke in a grave voice, “The Fang Family has already begun to make moves.
Lanlan is, after all, the daughter of my younger sister.
I’m also afraid she will attract too much attention and suffer my sister’s tragic fate.”
After speaking, the two men, united in their mutual distress, clinked glasses again.
“Not long ago, a company called Tianluo Holdings, probably affiliated with the Fang Family, somehow got wind of some inside information and took a major bidding project right out of my hands.”
“There was such a thing?
How come I’ve never heard you mention it before?”
“In these years, we brothers have been worn out resisting the Fang Family nibbling away at our influence, and I was afraid of bothering you.” Having said that, Mu Tiansheng took a big gulp of his drink, “Our father left such a huge legacy to us, and if we can’t protect it, how could we face him?
Besides, our family lineage is thin, and we don’t even have a successor now.
If we were to fall, what would happen to this vast family business?
Lanlan is promising indeed, but I’m afraid that if she becomes too prominent, she might attract misfortune.”
Mu Tiansheng shared the worries of his heart, and Mu Tiancheng, empathizing deeply, clinked glasses with him once more.
Lin Fei listened and couldn’t help but frown.
“The only piece of good news might be that father has found a good husband for Lanlan.” Mu Tiancheng subtly shifted the topic to Lin Fei.
Mu Tiansheng’s gaze also fell on Lin Fei, “Nephew-in-law, there may come a day when the Mu Family faces life and death struggles, and we can only rely on you for salvation.
I hope that, at least for Lanlan’s sake, you will lend us your aid.”
Lin Fei didn’t understand why they had such high expectations for him, a man with nothing, but facing Mu Tiansheng’s heartfelt charge, Lin Fei responded seriously, “If that day really comes, I won’t say much else, but for Lanlan’s sake, I wouldn’t let anyone harm the Mu Family in the slightest.”
“Good!
Father was not mistaken about you!
To you, I raise my glass!”
Mu Tiansheng lifted his glass, and Lin Fei drank with him.
After putting down their glasses, Mu Tiansheng curiously asked, “Lin Fei, what do you do now?”
“I’m the head of the third internal affairs team of the Security Department at Hyatt International Hotel.”
After hearing this, Mu Tiansheng’s mouth fell open in surprise, then he turned to glance at Mu Tiancheng beside him, as if questioning how could he let his son-in-law be just a security manager at a hotel?
Unexpectedly, Mu Tiancheng laughed upon hearing it, “Lin Fei, you’ve been promoted to manager?”
Seeing Lin Fei nod, Mu Tiansheng furrowed his brow deeply, “What did you do before?”
“I was just a regular security guard at the hotel.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Tiansheng was speechless, hand to forehead.
Mu Tiancheng said helplessly from the side, “That position was given by Lanlan.
She has always insisted on keeping me from interfering.
There’s nothing I can do.”
“Lanlan is really something, being the hotel manager herself and letting her husband be a security guard.
If word gets out, it would be laughable!”
“Maybe at first, Lanlan had some prejudice against Lin Fei, but it’s much better now.
Today, she even came to me specifically to say that she wants me to invest money so Lin Fei can start a company.”
Hearing this, Mu Tiansheng perked up.
“I remember that you’ve been making movements in the internet sector recently.
How about investing in Lin Fei’s company under the name of your enterprise?
That way, if Lin Fei’s company does well in the future, we can also use this to transfer him to the headquarters of Mu Group.”
After hearing this, Mu Tiancheng also thought it was a good idea, and then he asked Lin Fei’s opinion.
Lin Fei, hearing this, felt overwhelmed.
His intention of starting a company was to settle Lin Feng and Yun Chuyao, but he hadn’t expected Mu Tiancheng’s brothers to use this as an opportunity to pull him into Mu Group.
But upon seeing the hopeful looks from the two men, Lin Fei couldn’t bear to refuse and thought he might as well agree.
If the company ended up growing big and busy, he could just hand it over to Zhou Ziyu.
After all, what he did best was to be a hands-off manager.
“Then let’s go with Uncle’s suggestion.”
The two brothers saw Lin Fei agree and immediately clapped in approval, toasting to each other.
Seeing Mu Tiansheng and Mu Tiancheng talking and laughing, Lin Fei guessed that Mu Tiancheng had forgotten to remind Mu Tiansheng about his company, so he deliberately coughed to get Mu Tiancheng’s attention, then uttered the word “tax.”
Mu Tiancheng then remembered, put down his drink, and his expression turned serious.
Mu Tiansheng naturally noticed the two men’s unusual behavior and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Big brother, there’s another matter I think I should mention to you.”
“Speak your mind!”
