Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic One - A Sober Fall
Chapter 26 Hidden
Tu Mi nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, looking at Lin's father: "That's true. But the situation is constantly changing, and the struggles between powerful families are unpredictable. Is this really a good thing?"
Tu Mi pressed on, "Uncle Lin, if things continue like this, will we just let the Ye family dominate us? Or will other families fight over us, leaving us with no chance to survive?"
In the living room, apart from Lin Lian being out of sorts, the other three were all looking at Tu Mi.
Uncle Lin remained silent for a moment, then said helplessly, "How could I not know? But regarding that piece of land, only the Ye family knows about it. The Ye family disregarded past relationships and sent Ye Tianzhu to target our Lin family, trying to buy that plot of land in the western suburbs at a low price. If other powerful families find out, the Lin family will be left struggling to survive, and the slightest misstep could..."
At this point, Lin's father stopped talking.
Lin's father's voice was neither loud nor soft, but loud enough for everyone present to hear, including Lin Lian. Suddenly, Lin Lian, who was not in the right state of mind, sat there quietly, head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Tu Mi glanced at Lin Lian out of the corner of her eye. Was Lin Lian really as innocent as he seemed? Perhaps not.
Tu Mi stood up and handed Lin's father a cup of tea. "Uncle Lin, you've risen from nothing to this position, so you must be a capable person. You're also someone who can analyze the difficulty of a given environment and solve its problems. Along with decision-making, there are bound to be risks and opportunities, but these opportunities..."
The conversation paused there, and Tu Mi stopped talking, instead looking directly at Lin's father.
Tu Mi was praising Lin's father, saying that someone as capable as him should not underestimate himself. Instead of struggling to survive under the Ye family, he should seize this opportunity to climb the social ladder.
For-profit organizations only pursue profit maximization, and collusion is common. In a world with a more完善的法理 (well-developed legal system), it's okay, but in the world of this novel, you have to accept your bad luck.
Tu Mi was still holding the teacup, waiting for Lin's father to take it from her.
So it all depends on whether you want to seize this opportunity.
Lin Lang stood behind the sofa with a pale face, but his eyes were fixed on his father and Tu Mi.
Lin Lian remained quietly seated on the sofa, but her hands, hidden behind her back, gripped the sofa's surface tightly.
The large living room was completely quiet.
Lin's father neither accepted the tea offered by Tu Mi nor refused it. Instead, he asked, "Is the Tu family really not interested in that piece of land?"
"of course."
He added, "The Tu family is only interested in this."
As she spoke, Tu Mi slid her index finger across Lin's father's palm.
Looking at Tu Mi's smiling face, Lin's father's pupils trembled. This... the Tu family's ambition is truly enormous.
"This...Young Master Tu, this cup of tea is too strong. Could you give me some more time to think about it?"
Judging from the situation, it's highly likely that the Lin family will cooperate with the Tu family; it's only a matter of time.
Lin's father turned to his two sons and said, "You two come with me."
With that, he went upstairs.
The Lin brothers followed closely behind.
Lin's mother smiled apologetically at Tu Mi: "Young Master Tu, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Nothing to worry about. Think things through before you act. It's always good to be cautious in your thoughts and actions."
Lin's mother smiled and walked towards the kitchen.
Tu Mi slightly raised her eyes, and the next second they fell on her phone.
On the chat interface
Tu Fu: "Has the Lin family agreed?"
Tu Mi looked down at the information on his phone screen and thought for a moment. Although the matter was already settled, he still didn't like to make any definitive statements.
He could only reply, "There's an eight or nine out of ten chance."
In the Sky Clouds private room
A group of men and women, each with their own unique charm, stood in a row for the gentlemen and young masters in front to choose from.
Jin He, who is also Jin Sesan's father, said to Tu Fu Dafang, "Patriarch Tu, do you see if there's anyone you like?"
Tu Fu smiled gently, then shook his head in refusal, "I'm sorry, Patriarch Jin, I still can't forget my deceased wife."
Jin He joked, "Among the aristocratic families, who doesn't know that you, Tu Fu, are a devoted lover who has remained chaste for your deceased wife for over a decade?"
Tu Fu picked up the hot water and took a sip, not denying what Jin He said.
Upon hearing this, Jin and Jin Se, who were standing next to each other, looked up at Tu Fu.
Tu Mi is very well-behaved, and her father is also very... good.
Jin He turned to introduce Jin Se San: "This is the head of the Tu family, Uncle Tu."
Jin Sesan was very obedient and sensible: "Uncle Tu".
Jin He patted Jin Sesan on the shoulder and said to Tu Fu, "This is my son."
Then, Jin and his secretary exchanged a glance with the manager.
The manager of the Heavenly Cloud Pavilion was perceptive; he immediately waved for all the women in the private room to leave.
Tu Fu looked at Jin Se San with a kind expression, "I held you when you were little. You were cute when you were little, and you've grown into a handsome young man."
"Thank you for your praise, Uncle Xie Tu."
Jin He sat to the side watching Tu Fu and Jin Se chat. The more they "got along" better, the happier Jin He became.
Jin Sesan then asked, "Uncle Tu, why didn't Tu Mi come?"
Tu Fu's mind was still replaying the message Tu Mi had just sent. His face remained expressionless as he chuckled and scolded, "That brat is so lazy, he just stays home sleeping all day."
Tu Fu said, seemingly casually, "I wonder how that brat is doing at school?"
Jin Se recalled his time with Tu Mi. Tu Mi didn't smell bad at all; she smelled sweet.
On the court, he held Tu Mi in his arms and could smell the fragrance of her hair. The jersey that Tu Mi had worn also had a faint scent of withered roses, which smelled very nice. Even the milk that Tu Mi gave him was very sweet.
"With me protecting Tu Mi, no one dares to bully him. Besides, Tu Mi's personality is not easy to be bullied."
At this point, Jin Sesan's lips curled up.
Tu Fu secretly sized up Jin Se San, clicking his tongue inwardly, thinking, "Xiao Mi has a knack for winning people over."
Jin He picked up a glass of wine and brought it to his lips. Tu Mi, Tu Fu's son, it seems I should meet him and see what he's like.
In fact, Tu Fu and Jin He have been friends for many years. As for being good friends... well, in Tu Fu's heart, he has always wanted the Tu family to reach that position. As for what Jin He thinks, Tu Fu doesn't care. After all, the Tu family's power is there. If the Jin family wants to remain one of the four great families, the Tu family, although not a necessary link, is still very important. Without the Tu family, the Jin family would probably be at the bottom of the four great families, or even worse.
