Peerless Young Master

"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?" Li Xuan's face was calm in the private room.

Looking at Li Xuanfeng's calm look, Lin Haitao showed displeasure. A loser dared to be on the same level with him, but when he thought of his grandfather's instructions, he naturally suppressed the anger in his heart.

“I heard that hot pot was invented by you?”

"You want a hot pot recipe?"

In an instant, Li Xuan guessed the other party's intention in coming to him.

Lin Haitao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that you would guess it so quickly: "Since you have guessed it, I won't say much.

That’s right, I came to you this time just for the hot pot recipe in your hand.”

Li Xuan's eyes flashed slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You come to me, so you naturally know the value of hot pot. I don't think you can offer this price."

"How about I exchange your lifelong well-being for a hot pot recipe?" Lin Haitao offered.

"What do you mean?" Li Xuan's eyes narrowed.

“The restaurant and the position of the head of the family will belong to my grandfather sooner or later, and when that happens, all of you will be kicked out;

As for you, you are just a son-in-law, a gigolo. You don’t want to end up sleeping on the streets, do you?" Lin Haitao's mouth curled up slightly.

“According to the agreement, if I can improve the restaurant’s business, then my great uncle cannot use the restaurant’s poor business as an excuse to take the restaurant away;

Now that the restaurant's business is recovering, it's a bit ridiculous to think of taking it away." Li Xuan's heart sank.

Just as he guessed, how could the great uncle be so easy to talk to? He would definitely take the restaurant away at all costs, even if it would damage his reputation.

"Ha ha"

Lin Haitao smiled contemptuously: "This is none of your business. You joined the Lin family as a son-in-law, isn't it just for money?

As long as you give me the hot pot recipe, I will let you be the chef when I get it to the restaurant. I will also give you a large sum of money, enough for you to live a carefree life without having to rely on others. How about it?"

The air was stagnant for a moment, and Li Xuan spoke slowly, his voice not loud but clearly audible: "The ownership of the restaurant is still unknown, and it is not up to Great Uncle to decide who will win."

"Li Xuan, you are determined to go against my grandfather." Lin Haitao's face suddenly changed, as if a dark cloud was pressing down on his head, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Why don't you go back and tell your great uncle that as long as he behaves himself and gives him the full share every year, everyone will be fine; otherwise, the restaurant will have no relationship with the branch anymore," Li Xuan said calmly, not caring at all about the other party's angry eyes.

"You are a useless son-in-law, and you dare to threaten my grandfather. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you can talk to me like this just because you made a broken hot pot?

If Grandpa hadn't told me to, I would have beaten you to death long ago, why would I have said so much to you?"

Lin Haitao stood up suddenly, his body erupting like a long-suppressed volcano. The chair fell to the ground behind him. He leaned forward, slamming the table heavily, burning with anger.

The atmosphere in the private room was extremely tense, and the air seemed to be frozen by this invisible confrontation.

In addition to anger, there was a hint of madness brewing in Lin Haitao's eyes, and the anger in his heart had long been difficult to suppress.

Li Xuan also frowned and looked at the other people. His expression became serious. If a fight really broke out, he would not be their opponent.

"Master Lin, why waste your time talking to him? I've seen many people like him. Just beat him up." Zhu Da behind him had been wanting to take action for a long time.

Lin Haitao did not respond, but his eyes were full of thought, and his awe for his grandfather was constantly fighting against the anger in his heart.

"Lin Haitao, my great uncle and I had an agreement that you shouldn't disturb us for ten days; but you secretly messed around and disrupted the restaurant's business, which is against the agreement.

If this matter gets out, what do you think others will say and how will other branches view Great Uncle?

You don't want your great uncle to be accused of breaking his promise, taking advantage of others' misfortunes, and destroying family unity, do you? "

"well"

Lin Haitao widened his eyes, and the word "good" almost came out from between his teeth.

As the young master of the Lin family, a mere son-in-law doesn't even have the qualifications to talk to him on weekdays, but today he actually threatens him. He is so brave.

"If you have the guts, once I take over the restaurant, you will be dead." Lin Haitao threw the teacup to the ground, left after saying these harsh words.

Anyone could see that he was extremely angry at the moment. He would have exploded long ago, but he just held it back.

Li Xuan didn't care much about this.

As long as he keeps the restaurant firmly in his hands, Lin Haitao will be like a grasshopper in autumn, unable to jump for more than a few days.

With Manager Zhao as the trump card, there is no one in the entire Lin family who can fight him.

Unless Great Uncle can also find a big shot who is comparable to Manager Zhao, but this is simply impossible.

This is an internal fight within the Lin family. If we ask outsiders for help, Great Uncle won't be able to explain it to other members of the branch family.

Looking at the mess on the ground and the scenes just now, Li Xuan murmured: "It's still not enough."

…………

Lin.

"There is still one day left, which is the day I agreed with Tai Shugong. How is the restaurant business now? Can we win this bet?"

The person who spoke was the head of the Lin family.

The ten-day agreement decided the ownership of the restaurant and the position of the head of the family. Such a big thing, even if he was used to many storms, he felt a little nervous at the moment.

If you lose, you really will have nothing.

"Dad, the restaurant business is picking up now. I have persuaded Old Zhao to come out of retirement. With him here, he will definitely be able to intimidate the great uncle and other branches."

To be honest, Lin Ruolin was not sure of winning and could only place all her hopes on Mr. Zhao.

After all, everyone knows Mr. Zhao’s reputation.

With him around, it's only a matter of time before the restaurant business picks up again.

The head of the Lin family looked anxious: "If it is Mr. Zhao, he can naturally bring the restaurant back to life; but my father heard that if we want him to take charge of the restaurant, his son must be admitted to the four major academies.

If Dad had lowered his head before, those people would have given him some face; but now if he wants to send someone in, those people probably won’t give him that face.”

"Dad, don't worry. No matter what the cost, I will firmly guard the restaurant and will never let my great uncle take it away." Lin Ruolin's eyes flashed with determination.

"It's all Dad's fault. If Dad wasn't useless, I wouldn't have let you bear such a heavy responsibility."

"Dad, I don't blame you. Your daughter will definitely support this family."

"By the way, Dad heard from the housekeeper that Li Xuan invented hot pot and roast duck, which are very popular and he also helped the Lin family solve the payment problem."

"Um"

“When did he become so powerful?”

When he heard the news, the head of the Lin family was also shocked. He didn't believe that this was done by the son-in-law whom he looked down upon.

"My daughter doesn't know either, but thanks to Li Xuan, otherwise the restaurant would have been demolished by those people." When Lin Ruolin mentioned Li Xuan, a complex look flashed in her eyes, with both gratitude and confusion.

"It's a pity that these two things are short-lived and easy to imitate, otherwise they would be enough to shut up the great uncle." The head of the Lin family paused and said, "Ruolin, are you sure you can ask Mr. Zhao to come to the Lin family?

I'm worried that Granduncle Tai will not give up and will secretly make trouble for me."

"Dad, I know, I will give it a try."

Lin Ruolin has already sent someone to invite him, and now the two of them are allies, so if one suffers, all will suffer.

If she loses power, then Mr. Zhao’s wish will never be fulfilled.
