Chapter 368 Alternative to Negotiation
Lin Chen's body had not yet recovered, and he was filled with anger at Ji Jingshen for his injustice and the resentment he had suffered in silence. He heard constant complaints in his ears, and he had clenched his teeth to the very bottom.
"The Lin Group has never relied on you. If you can give the Andre family a satisfactory answer, I can hand over sovereignty to you."
Upon hearing this, the elders of the Lin family who were about to say something automatically shut their mouths and looked at Lin Chen with some apprehension.
"Since no one is speaking, I have my reasons for doing what I do. You are all my elders, but I need to think things through before I speak, otherwise don't blame me for disowning you."
Lin Chen turned and left, leaving behind a group of elders. The anger of the Lin family gradually subsided, but dissatisfaction arose within the family regarding Lin Chen's actions.
A middle-aged man stared at Lin Chen's departing figure: "That kid, just because he's the patriarch's son, he talks to us elders like that. He really doesn't know any manners."
"Alright, enough said. You know Lin Chen, he dragged us all down with the help of the Andre family. Who wants to be in the same boat as the Andre family?"
Not long after, problems arose in the Lin Group's projects. Someone spread rumors of internal disputes, and the news quickly reached the ears of Ji Jingshen and Song Qianyi.
"There is infighting within the Lin family. Perhaps we can take advantage of this to dismantle them from within."
Song Qianyi remained silent, her brows furrowed. "How could news of their internal strife spread so easily? Lin Chen is treacherous and cunning. We should be cautious and investigate more thoroughly before taking any action."
Suddenly, footsteps sounded from the side. Ji Jingshen looked over warily, and Song Qianyi beside him shut her mouth at the same time. A figure walked out from around the corner.
"Sister Qianyi, leave this to me."
Upon seeing Liang Yu, Song Qianyi glanced at Ji Jingshen and stood up: "No, Liang Yu, do you know what we're talking about? This matter isn't as easy as you think, and I don't want you to get involved."
“Of course I know, I understand this is about the Lin Group, so I’m willing to help you.”
Ji Jingshen stood to one side, his face serious: "Liang Yu, we appreciate your kindness. Just focus on raising your children well. We know how to handle things at the company."
He didn't want to owe anyone any favors. The Lin Group had climbed up to the Andre family, so they were naturally not easy to deal with.
“Right now, Sui Sui needs you all the most. Qian Yi, you and Jing Shen should take good care of Sui Sui as she recovers in the hospital. I’ve actually started a new technology company called Mantle. I can use the company to do some things, which will definitely be easier for me than for you to get close to the Lin Group.”
Song Qianyi was shocked to hear that the mantle was created by you! We were all guessing who was in charge of the mantle, but it turns out it was right next to me.
Liang Yu smiled shyly and scratched her head, her ears turning red: "I'm not that amazing. I only got to where I am today because of Qianyi's support back then. So if I can help you, I'm definitely willing."
His reaction did not escape Ji Jingshen's notice, and Ji Jingshen's alarm bells went off instantly. Liang Yu's reaction did not seem like gratitude to Song Qianyi at all, but rather like an expression that was subconsciously displayed because of praise from someone he cared about deeply.
After discussing with Song Qianyi and Ji Jingshen, Liang Yu, using his identity as Di Man, prepared to contact the internal shareholders of the Lin Group. The shareholders of the Lin Group were pleasantly surprised to learn that Di Man had submitted a cooperation invitation and immediately contacted Liang Yu.
Soon, the two sides met. Liang Yu was waiting at the hotel, while Song Qianyi and Ji Jingshen were waiting nearby.
The door to the private room in the restaurant was pushed open from the outside, and Lin Tian from the Lin Group and some other members of the Lin family appeared in front of Liang Yu.
"You're in charge of the mantle, right? I've heard so much about you."
Liang Yu walked over and shook Lin Tian's hand: "Hello, I am Liang Yu, the person in charge of the mantle."
Upon hearing the words "mantle," Lin Tian's eyes lit up. He sat down next to Liang Yu and couldn't help but bring up the matter of cooperation as soon as he sat down.
"If you have any ideas about the cooperation projects that Mr. Liang previously submitted to our company, just let me know, and our Lin Group will do its best to meet them."
Knowing that Lin Tian was eager to secure the project, Liang Yu no longer concealed his true intentions: "Actually, I'm here today in a different capacity."
"What identity?"
He was a little curious, wondering what Liang Yu meant.
"Everyone knows Ji Jingshen and Song Qianyi, right? Actually, I'm here on their behalf to conduct some transactions with President Lin. Of course, projects that are completed on the ground are also included, but only if President Lin agrees to certain conditions."
When Ji Jingshen and Song Qianyi's names appeared, Lin Tian became wary: "What kind of deal is this? President Liang, you know the relationship between our Lin Group and the Ji Group. You're here to negotiate with us on behalf of the Earth Mantle. What makes you think I'll agree?"
"President Lin, please don't rush. Take a look at this contract before you consider it."
Liang Yu pushed the prepared contract toward Lin Tian. Looking at the contract on the table, Lin Tian reached out and took it. He carefully looked at each clause, and the wariness in his eyes gradually disappeared.
He pondered for a moment, still not readily agreeing to Liang Yu's request. Liang Yu anticipated his reaction and smiled at Lin Tian, saying, "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, we can still discuss the terms on this document."
What do you want us to do?
Seeing that the other party had relented, Liang Yu proposed the terms of the deal: "As far as I know, Lin Chen is not in power among you yet, right? I also know that you have disagreements because of your differing opinions. What we want is for you to unite internally and oppose Lin Chen's rise to power."
Lin Tian pondered, glancing at the contract on the table. Seeing that he hadn't agreed yet, Liang Yu pretended to take the contract back, and Lin Tian reached out and pressed the contract onto the table.
He looked at the Lin family members around him, and the people next to him nodded.
“Okay, I agree. I will help oppose Lin Chen’s rise to power internally.”
Liang Yu extended her hand: "Then it will be a pleasure to cooperate with you."
On the other side, in order to resolve the poisoning of the Lin family, Lin Chen got into a car with the people around him and headed towards the pharmaceutical factory, with another car following not far behind.
Song Qianyi's phone rang. She glanced at the number and pressed the answer button.
"Mrs. Ji, Lin Chen left the company today and is now heading towards the pharmaceutical factory."
Her heart tightened, and she quickly walked to Ji Jingshen's side: "How long has Lin Chen been out?"
"It's been about twenty minutes. The car has already left the city. It looks like we should arrive soon."
Song Qianyi responded, "Send me your location first, and then send me the location of the pharmaceutical factory after we arrive. We'll take action once we get there, and we must not let Lin Chen find out."
