Except for the only son of the Gu family, the daughters of several families gathered together. Those who approached Lin Muci according to their family's arrangements were tactful and did not go forward to disturb them.

Lin Chao quickly dealt with the things upstairs, came downstairs to make an opening statement, signaling that the cocktail party had officially begun. Li Mengqi went to find Li Yuntian, Lin Mu left Lin Chao, and Yuan Luo took Cui Xuhua to find her father.

Because Yuanluo has taken over a lot of business now, Ji Zhengsong took Yuanluo to meet many of his old friends. Yuanluo was also trying to remember those people. Cui Xuhua also stood by and frantically memorized their appearance, names and information.

Lin Chao brought Lin Muci over here, greeting them all the way, and said hello to Ji Zhengsong: "Hello, Uncle Ji, Hello, President Luo."

Yuan Luo spoke before Ji Zhengsong and shouted, "Hello, Director Lin."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows at Ji Zhengsong imperceptibly. Although Ji Zhengsong didn't understand what Yuanluo was going to do, he still followed his daughter's words and said, "Hello, Director Lin, this is really the case of the younger generation pushing the older generation forward. People like us can no longer refuse to admit that we are old."

Lin Chao did not expect that Ji Zhengsong would address him like this in front of these people, but he had given up face, and he had no reason to hold back: "Uncle, I am too embarrassed. Others are polite and call me Director Lin. In your eyes, I will always be a junior."

Ji Zhengsong obviously disagreed with this and said, "A man of ambition has no age limit. Since you have taken over the Lin Group, you have to get used to being called this. At home, you are Xiao Lin, and in the business world, you are Director Lin."

Ji Zhengsong knew a lot about the Lin family. He actually looked down on Lin Hong. What was the point of doing well in business if he couldn't even treat his wife and children well and let a woman outside stir up trouble.

If there really was something wrong, it would be fine. He is a scumbag at best. But he has no relationship with that woman, and the daughter is not even his. Yet, for such a thing, he made his family a mess. He is a complete idiot.

Therefore, although he did not prevent the younger generations of the two families from interacting with each other in the past, he seldom had contact with Lin Hong. Now that Lin Chao has taken over the Lin family, Yuanluo and Siran are still on good terms with the children of their generation, so it is not impossible for them to have in-depth cooperation.

These words had a different meaning when heard by others. Those fence-sitters who had previously wanted to please both sides and not offend either side had now made up their minds. With Ji Zhengsong's help, Lin Chao was able to secure the Lin family.

Seeing that there were a lot of people gathered here, Li Mengqi also wanted to pull her father over here. Li Yuntian has always loved his daughter, so seeing that she wanted to join in the fun, he followed her.

"Director Ji, President Xiaolin, what are you talking about? It's really lively here." Li Yuntian said.

Yuan Luo smiled playfully, as if jokingly saying, "Uncle Li, you called me the wrong name. Brother Lin is now the chairman of the board, not Mr. Lin anymore."

Hearing Yuanluo say this, Li Mengqi also subconsciously echoed: "That's right, Dad, why do you have such a bad memory? Brother Lin is now the chairman of the board."

Seeing both of them saying this, Li Yuntian also said cheerfully: "Look at me, I'm old and my memory is not good. Our Xiao Lin is now Director Lin. Next time I must not call you the wrong name."

After hearing these conversations, Lin Muci cast a grateful look at Yuan Luo. Lin Chao had just explained the intention of these words to her. Lin Muci naturally understood the weight of these few light words.

"Uncle Li, you're too polite. I'm the junior, you can call me whatever you like." Lin Chao smiled gently, no longer showing the sinister look he had in the lounge before.

At this cocktail party, everyone who attended came to a conclusion that the four major families in Pingzhou, the Ji family and the Li family, stood on the same side as Lin Chao. Although the Gu family did not attend, the Gu family and the Ji family have always had the same stance, and the only son of the Gu family was engaged to the eldest daughter of the Ji family.

So the final result was that Lin Chao stood with the other three families. Those who used their status as elders to mediate with Lin Chao and wanted to sell Lin Hong as a good person turned around and began to curry favor with Lin Chao.

After the cocktail party, Yuanluo asked Sun Yuan to send Cui Xuhua back, and she followed her father back to the manor, wanting to explain what she had done today.

Who knew that after getting in the car, Ji Zhengsong opened his mouth and said, "Since Ranran's incident, you haven't lived at home. Can you tell me why?"

Yuan Luo didn't expect her father to ask this. She turned her head away awkwardly and said, "It's not that I don't want to go home, it's just that the company is too busy."

"Yuanluo, you are lying. When you feel guilty, you will subconsciously not dare to look people in the eye. Are you blaming yourself for signing Jiang Ya to your company, which is why all these things happened later?"

Yuan Luo looked out the window and said stubbornly, "I didn't do that. It's not my fault."

"This is not your fault in the first place. The relationship between Si Ran and Jiang Ya is an established fact. Since they have met and have contact information with each other, this day is only a matter of time. There is no need for you to keep avoiding it."

Ji Zhengsong tried to comfort his daughter, but Yuanluo was obviously avoiding the topic. Although she felt that she was not wrong, she also felt that this matter was related to her. It would be fine once she figured it out, and no one's advice would be of any use.

"Dad, won't you ask me why I did this today?"

"They are your friends. Isn't it your duty to help your friends?" Ji Zhengsong didn't take this matter to heart at all.

"I hate Lin Hong, but today when I went upstairs to say hello to Brother Lin, everyone was urging Brother Lin to be considerate of his father. They also said that Brother Lin is also a man, so why can't he be considerate? I found it irritating."

"Coincidentally, Dad doesn't like Lin Hong either. He can't take good care of his wife and children. Dad thinks he is a fool. But Lin Chao is a very capable person. Dad thinks he is very good.

Yuanluo, you are going to college now. If you have someone you like, Dad will not object. You can tell Dad. "

Yuan Luo finally turned her head back, her eyes full of shock: "Dad, what are you talking about? What do you mean by someone you like? You don't think I like Brother Lin, do you? How is that possible? I only took action because of Sister Mu Ci."

She manages the company every day, witnessing all kinds of people scheming against each other, and it's tiring enough to compete with others in wits and courage. How could she possibly like someone as deep-minded as Lin Chao? How tiring would life be then? Yuan Luo couldn't bear to think about it and felt goosebumps all over her body.

Seeing that Yuanluo's disdain did not seem fake, Ji Zhengsong breathed a sigh of relief. He was scared to death, thinking that his juicy cabbages were going to be eaten by pigs.
