After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 342

Shan Caiwei was stunned when she heard this.

I?

Eliminate the Zeng family?

Just for a promotion and a raise?

What's the difference between that and going to your death for a dollar?

Seeing her shocked expression, Lin Ling couldn't help but laugh and said, "Alright, I was just teasing you, don't take it too seriously..."

"I usually tell this joke to Mengyu, and she'll get so angry she'll slam the files on my desk and make me..."

"Hey......"

As she spoke, Lin Ling's mood became low.

Shan Caiwei also sighed: "Sister Yu, well, never mind, President Lin, I won't say any more. Anyway, I believe Sister Yu isn't that kind of person. She must have had a compelling reason for leaving you."

"I know." Lin Ling nodded and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. "I wonder how Xiaoyu is doing now."

Just then, Lin Ling's phone rang.

He frowned. After severing ties with the Lin family, he had already changed his phone number, and not many people knew his new number.

You could even count them on two hands.

Who would call me now?

He answered the phone.

Shan Caiwei bowed, intending to leave, but Lin Ling waved her over, telling her she didn't need to go.

A deep, slightly hoarse male voice came from the other end of the phone: "President Lin, it's me, Zeng Qiang."

Lin Ling was stunned for a moment.

Am I really that strong?

He frowned: "Alright, I know you're very capable. Are you trying to recommend yourself for a position at Lingyun Group?"

"No, we must go through the company's normal recruitment process."

"Okay, I'm hanging up. Don't call me again."

"Wait, wait a minute..." Zeng Qiang on the other end of the phone choked for a moment, then said angrily, "It's me, Zeng Qiang!"

"Alright, I know you're very strong." Lin Ling said speechlessly, and was about to hang up the phone.

Zeng Qiang was even more speechless, and angrily said, "I'm not saying I'm really strong, I'm Zeng Qiang of the Zeng family."

"You could have just said so earlier. You keep saying I'm really strong, that I'm really strong. People who don't know better would think you're incredibly strong." Lin Ling said speechlessly.

Shan Caiwei, who was standing nearby, laughed when she heard this.

"I'm fucking strong, so what?" Zeng Qiang laughed in anger: "When I was a kid, I was called Superman Qiang."

"Thinking about it carefully, he really did look a lot like Superman back then, tall and strong, and a young master."

"Mr. Zeng, you're really something, you actually got my phone number." Lin Ling raised an eyebrow.

One's own phone number is very private, yet Zeng Qiang was able to call directly to one's own phone.

This also shows that he wanted to give himself a hard time.

I wasn't unable to hear it just now; I was trying to disrupt his rhythm.

We must not let him lead the conversation.

Zeng Qiang said in a deep voice, "Noon, Vienna Hall, I hope Mr. Lin will do me the honor of attending."

"Okay." Lin Ling agreed without even thinking.

"Aren't you afraid this is a trap?" Zeng Qiang's voice carried a hint of mockery. "Or is it that President Lin trusts my character enough?"

"I have enough confidence in my own abilities." Lin Ling smiled faintly and retorted directly, "Just like a lion is not afraid of the threat of wild dogs."

"Hahaha." Zeng Qiang laughed heartily.

He hung up the phone, and his laughter stopped abruptly.

Lin Ling looked at Shan Caiwei with a half-smile: "You heard everything, right? What do you think his purpose is?"

“Uh… it shouldn’t be a trap.” Shan Caiwei frowned slightly, analyzing seriously, “I think Zeng Qiang might want to shake hands and make peace with you.”

According to the private investigator, among the three Zeng brothers, the eldest brother Zeng Qiang is the most calm and steady, but also the most moderate.

“The Zeng family has been using various methods recently, but you have thwarted them all. This has depleted the Zeng family’s strength, made them a laughing stock among other major families, and even affected the Zeng Group’s business.”

"So he was worried that you and the Zeng family would both suffer losses, allowing a third party to benefit, and he wanted to make peace with you."

"It's not that simple." Lin Ling said meaningfully, "You're half right."
