Grandma Lin's phone call had ended for quite a while, and Lin Mei also received a call from Old Lin. Old Lin's message was simple; he was merely conveying Grandma Lin's intentions.
He knew this was the most prudent way to handle the situation.
"Okay, I understand." Lin Mei was not surprised by Old Lin's approach to the matter. She nodded and replied.
"Mm." Old Lin had a good opinion of Lin Mei's ability to handle affairs. Knowing that she understood his meaning, he felt confident she would know what to do next, so he hung up the phone decisively.
Sure enough, just after Lin Mei hung up her mobile phone, the office phone rang.
It was Xiao Ya calling, or rather, it was a call transferred by Xiao Ya.
As the president of Golden Dragon Group, Lin Mei naturally did not take calls from just anyone. Although the numbers related to Golden Dragon Group should not be leaked for advertising purposes, there were indeed a few people who managed to get hold of such numbers.
Therefore, any call had to go through Xiao Ya before it could reach Lin Mei.
Of course, if someone was deemed worthy by Lin Mei to call her personal mobile phone directly, they could reach her without going through Xiao Ya.
For instance, Old Lin, Grandma Lin, and some important figures. Now, this list also included Lin Feng.
What frustrated Lin Mei was that she had to personally ask for Lin Feng's number from him.
There was no choice; after experiencing his unreliable tardiness once, Lin Mei had no option but to request Lin Feng's mobile number so she could remind him when he was late.
At that time, of course, Lin Mei did not know that Lin Feng was the Young Master of the Lin family and the man she was destined to be with for life.
But now that I think about it, Lin Mei really feels that fate is quite a mysterious thing.
Alright, back to the point. Since it was Xiao Ya who called, Lin Mei naturally knew that someone was looking for her. However, Xiao Ya wasn't sure whether to let her answer the phone, so she directly connected the call and said, "Xiao Ya, what's up?"
"Lin Dong, Mr. Kong An is looking for you." Xiao Ya has quite a personality; if she dislikes someone, she won't bother with polite titles. She knows that this Kong An isn't a good person, so she wouldn't refer to him as "Young Master Kong" or "Young Master An."
"Okay, I understand. Let him in." Upon hearing this, Lin Mei felt that Kong An was quite quick to act. She had just received a delivery not long ago, and he was already at her door. Was he eager to see Lin Feng make a fool of himself? Or perhaps he wanted to take credit?
As expected of a group president, Lin Mei had a good eye for people. To be honest, her guess about Kong An's intentions was spot on.
"Lin Dong, I apologize for the abrupt call; I hope you won't take offense." Kong An knew that Lin Mei would answer his call, but he still offered some pleasantries.
"Speak plainly." Lin Mei didn't want to waste time with this guy, especially knowing he was out to get Lin Feng. In fact, Lin Mei had the ability to speak to Kong An like this because, although the Kong Family was also a group with some financial power, they were no match for the Lin family in terms of background and connections. Therefore, Lin Mei dared to speak directly to him.
Of course, Lin Mei's attitude towards Kong An also reflected Old Master's intentions. Otherwise, as a group president, she wouldn't offend someone just like that; she wasn't someone with a narrow perspective.
Old Master's message was simple: while it was necessary to keep Kong An occupied, there was no need for overly polite behavior; otherwise, wouldn't that just inflate his ego?
You dare to mess with my grandson? The old man of the Lin family is not someone who can be easily bullied. In fact, it was already good that he didn't provoke others; who would have thought someone would come looking for trouble?
Even though Lin Feng's identity hadn't been revealed yet, Old Master wouldn't consider that. In short, it was simple: you messed with my grandson? Well then, prepare for the Lin family's retaliation.
This Old Master is just that domineering.
"Uh, Lin Dong, you received the materials I sent you, right?" Kong An was taken aback by Lin Mei's sharp tone. Of course, at this moment he still had to tread carefully.
"Well, I received it," Lin Mei said very calmly, showing no embarrassment about her earlier attitude towards the other person.
"Yes, Lin Dong, I'm just helping out," Kong An quickly protested upon realizing that Lin Mei had received his information and was still treating him this way.
"Kong An, let me tell you, don't even think about taking advantage of our Lin family's loopholes; you're not qualified for that. I won't pursue how the information about Lin Feng was leaked. Our family will investigate this matter ourselves, understand?" Lin Mei said directly, spilling out everything she had prepared to say when she saw Kong An protesting. Then she hung up the phone.
Indeed, Old Lin had only given Lin Mei a general idea, but she conveyed his message very effectively. Her words not only expressed no gratitude for the information provided by Kong An but also indicated that they would handle the investigation themselves. Moreover, it made it clear that some matters were beyond his control; even if Lin Feng had made any mistakes, it was their responsibility to deal with and punish him—not something others could interfere with.
This way, Lin Mei warned Kong An not to cause trouble for Lin Feng while making him feel that his interference in family matters was met with anger out of concern for the family's reputation rather than a deliberate defense of Lin Feng.
As a result, while Kong An might harbor some resentment towards Lin Mei, he would likely refrain from causing further trouble for Lin Feng for the time being.
As for what would happen next, Lin Mei believed Grandpa would handle it well. After all, Lin Feng's safety was currently the top priority for both Grandpa and Grandma.
Now that this matter was resolved, what worried Lin Mei next was regarding Lin Feng's acknowledgment of his ancestry. The current situation was that Lin Feng was still unaware of his identity. According to Lin Mei's investigation, it seemed that Lin Feng had a peculiar aversion to his biological parents or relatives. This raised another concern for Lin Mei: would Lin Feng be willing to acknowledge his ancestry?
From her time spent with Lin Feng, she knew he could be quite stubborn in certain aspects.
Of course, privately, Lin Mei also had to think about how she would face him if he truly acknowledged his ancestry.
After all, if Lin Feng became the Young Master of the Lin Family, wouldn't she just be a concubine beside that Young Master?
A concubine—just thinking about this made the usually composed Lin Mei blush uncontrollably.
At present, the only thing Lin Mei felt fortunate about was that although Lin Feng was somewhat unconventional, he was still an agreeable person with well-defined features and no physical deformities.
For these years, at midnight, Lin Mei always thinks about the same question: will the person she marries in the future be someone who looks so unattractive that no one would want to approach him?
Don't be surprised; although Lin Mei is not someone who is obsessed with appearances, you must understand that she is still a woman. A woman, as long as she is not extraordinarily stunning, will likely have certain expectations for her partner.
Lin Mei must admit that in this regard, she is just a very ordinary woman.
Fortunately, he doesn't look bad enough to affect the city's appearance. This was something Lin Mei repeated several times under the covers last night.
For the first time in many years, Lin Mei found herself in the office thinking about matters unrelated to her future with Golden Dragon Group.
After much consideration, Lin Mei felt it would be better to talk to Lin Feng. After all, no matter what problem arises, it all depends on Lin Feng's attitude for resolution.
With her mind made up, Lin Mei took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Lin Feng.
"Can you accompany me to a place this afternoon?" was the message she sent.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Mei added with some concern, "This isn't work-related; it's just a personal invitation, and you can refuse."
God knows if that stubborn guy would simply respond with "That's not within my job scope." Lin Mei has had deep experiences with Lin Feng's stubbornness in certain aspects.
In any case, this guy does not play by the usual rules.
Lin Feng was sitting in front of his computer, bored and watching a movie. He is not a movie buff, but after searching for a while, he finally found a way to relax while semi-reclining.
He opened a webpage and started streaming the movie online, allowing him to lounge comfortably for quite some time.
As Lin Feng was feeling somewhat pleased with himself, the Mobile Phone in the magic ring rang. Lin Feng knew what that ringtone represented. He looked around to see no one was nearby, waved his hand, and the Mobile Phone appeared in his grasp. He then opened the message.
Upon reading the content of the message, Lin Feng immediately wanted to refuse. After all, it was not easy to find a way to pass the time like this. How could he possibly leave the warm office where he could watch movies and go outside to be dragged around by Lin Mei?
However, before Lin Feng could refuse, another message from Lin Mei came through—"This is not work-related; it's just a personal invitation. You can decline."
Seeing the message, Lin Feng paused his action of replying with a refusal. After thinking for a moment, he could only type two words on the Mobile Phone keyboard: "Alright then."
There was no helping it; that was just how Lin Feng was—stubborn as a mule, resistant to being pulled along but easily swayed by gentle persuasion.
In fact, after sending the message, he even wondered if his brilliance was too dazzling, making even President Lin unable to resist bowing down before him in his jeans.
If Lin Mei knew what this guy was thinking at that moment, she would probably have dropped the matter right away; it was infuriating.
But Lin Mei didn’t know, so when she arrived at the Assistant Office right on time during lunch, she said to Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, come with me; we have something to discuss."
Lin Feng was prepared for this. He turned to Xiao Ya and said, "Xiao Ya, Lin Dong has an appointment today, so I won't take you out for lunch. You can go ahead; just report my name and let Zhang Daye make you something delicious."
After saying that, he looked at Lin Mei with an expression of "I'm taking care of the newcomer," completely forgetting that he himself was still a newcomer. More importantly, if it weren't for Lin Mei's nodding approval, how could he enjoy private dishes in her Private Room?
Of course, Lin Mei didn't expect him to understand what having some decorum meant. She could only say to Xiao Ya, "Xiao Ya, when you go over there, tell Zhang Daye that Lin Feng and I have something to attend to and won't be eating here. You go ahead and eat."
