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

Chapter 600

Lin Ling stood up, straightened his suit collar, and wore a faint smile on his face.

He glanced at Shi Gandang and said calmly, "Patriarch Shi, there's no need to refuse. We should still show some courtesy."

Lin Ling knew perfectly well that Su Qingyan and the Lin family siblings were all waiting for him downstairs. How could he miss this opportunity to watch the show?

Shi Gandang was taken aback; he hadn't expected Lin Ling to be so enthusiastic.

He was acting all businesslike just a moment ago, but now he's offering to walk me downstairs.

The exorbitant ransom of 10 billion was already causing Shi Gandang's heart to bleed, and he had no mind to ponder Lin Ling's intentions at the moment.

I just felt that the other party's change in attitude was perhaps because of the 10 billion.

After all, he was the head of the Shi family, and his status and position were undeniable. Even if Lin Ling was arrogant, he should still give him some face.

He nodded and forced a smile, "Mr. Lin, you're too kind. Thank you for your help."

The two walked out of the office side by side, along the spacious and bright corridor, toward the elevator.

Shi Gandang's thoughts had already drifted far away; his mind was filled with the huge sum of 10 billion yuan, and his heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

The elevator arrived, and the doors slowly opened.

Lin Ling went in first, followed closely by Shi Gandang.

The atmosphere in the cramped space became somewhat oppressive.

Shi Gandang tried his best to remain calm, as he did not want to lose his composure in front of Lin Ling.

Lin Ling leaned against the elevator wall and glanced at Shi Gandang.

Seeing him lower his head and remain silent, he chuckled lightly: "Patriarch Shi, if you have nothing else to do after you get back, make preparations as soon as possible. Time waits for no one, and that Cheng Yong fellow doesn't have much patience."

Shi Gandang raised his head and forced a smile: "What President Lin said is right, I will make arrangements when I get back."

As the elevator descends, the numbers keep changing.

Soon, we arrived at the first floor.

The elevator doors opened again, revealing the lobby.

Su Qingyan sat on a sofa on one side of the hall, holding a document in her hand and looking down as she read it.

Not far away, Lin Tianwu and his sister Lin Ke'er stood there, anxiously looking around.

Their faces were full of impatience, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

When they saw Lin Ling and Shi Gandang walk out of the elevator together, all three of them were stunned.

Su Qingyan's body stiffened slightly, and the document in her hand almost fell to the ground.

She looked up and saw Lin Ling and Shi Gandang walking side by side, a feeling she couldn't quite describe welling up inside her.

Lin Tianwu and Lin Ke'er also looked incredulous.

They never expected that Lin Ling would be with Shi Gandang, and that they seemed to have a good relationship.

Lin Tianwu, in particular, had just been cursing Lin Ling in his heart, but now it felt like he had been slapped hard across the face, and his face was burning with pain.

"This...this is really the head of the Shi family?"

Lin Tianwu stammered as he spoke.

Lin Ke'er was also somewhat at a loss. She tugged at Lin Tianwu's sleeve and whispered, "Tianwu, what's going on?"

Lin Tianwu did not answer; he did not know how to explain what was happening before him.

Black Wolf, who had been waiting nearby, couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene.

He walked up to the three of them and began to mock them mercilessly.

"See? I didn't lie to you, did I? Facts speak louder than words."

"As you can see now, the head of the Shi family has come to ask our General Manager Lin for a favor!"

"President Lin is very busy. It's already an exception that he's hosting the Shi family head today. He doesn't have time to deal with you."

When Black Wolf spoke, he deliberately raised his voice to ensure that all three of them could hear him clearly.

Black Wolf's words were like a slap in the face, striking the three men hard across the cheeks.

They were just questioning Black Wolf, thinking that the Shi family would never ask Lin Ling for help, but now reality has slapped them in the face.

Lin Tianwu's face turned pale and then red. He felt as if something was blocking his throat, and he was in great pain.

Lin Ke'er was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear. She clung tightly to Lin Tianwu's sleeve, wishing she could disappear into the ground.

Although Su Qingyan didn't say anything, her expression wasn't much better.
