Qing Chen A

Chapter 192 Wolfish Ambitions

Fifth Yuanze's spirit jolted, and he immediately looked at Fifth Bo Weng, wanting to tell him to discuss this later and handle the wedding first.

As long as the wedding was done, it would be a done deal. If the Lin family wanted to go back on their word, they wouldn't be able to.

Marriage alliances between great families were not like ordinary people getting married.

Once married, it wasn't as simple as divorcing.

For marriage alliances between great families, ending the marriage would be extremely troublesome.

Therefore, as long as the wedding was completed, Fifth Yuanze was not worried about future situations.

However, just as he was about to speak.

Fifth Bo Weng immediately said coldly, "I see your wings have indeed grown strong, you don't even listen to my words anymore."

"Dad!"

Fifth Yuanze looked at Fifth Bo Weng, his expression very anxious, and also a little scared.

Because he saw his father was angry.

But, at this excellent opportunity, with Lin Hao being such a good fat sheep, he truly didn't want to let him go.

If he truly revealed the details of the marriage alliance between the Lin family and the Fifth family.

Then the marriage alliance between the Lin family and the Fifth family would definitely be ruined.

Even if he wanted to continue the marriage alliance with the Lin family, the Lin family, for the sake of face, would definitely not agree to this marriage.

However, just as he was about to try and argue further, the cane in Fifth Bo Weng's hand suddenly struck towards him!

"You scoundrel!"

"Dad!"

"I'll say it, I'll say it!"

Seeing that his father was truly angry, Fifth Yuanze immediately begged for mercy.

And at the moment Fifth Yuanze begged for mercy, Lin Yuanshan's face changed drastically.

He had originally placed his hopes on Fifth Yuanze.

He felt that Fifth Yuanze would definitely be able to withstand Fifth Bo Weng's pressure.

After all, the fifty percent control of the Lin family's industries wasn't given for free.

Such a generous betrothal gift, anyone would be tempted.

But Lin Yuanshan didn't expect that in just a blink of an eye, Fifth Yuanze would give up.

"Useless fellow!"

Lin Yuanshan cursed inwardly while feeling extremely anxious.

With so many family powers present today, if Fifth Yuanze revealed the entire origin of the marriage alliance.

Then the Lin family's century-old reputation would be completely ruined.

However, after thinking it over and over, Lin Yuanshan had no solution and could only fret.

At the same time, Fifth Yuanze finally spoke.

Fifth Yuanze looked at Lin Hao, first took a deep breath, and then said, "Actually, the matter of the marriage alliance between the Lin family and the Fifth family isn't as complicated as you think, it's just..."

"Wait!"

Lin Yuanshan suddenly interrupted Fifth Yuanze.

Then, Lin Yuanshan looked at Lin Hao, with a hint of pleading in his voice, and said, "Little Hao, this is our family's internal matter. How about we go to the back hall to discuss it?"

"Don't worry, after we go to the back hall, I will definitely not hide anything, and I will truthfully tell the entire sequence of events, every single detail."

"Little Hao, I am your uncle after all. You have to give me some face, don't you?"

"Besides, with so many people watching, if you don't even give me this bit of face, what do you think they will say about you?"

"So, Little Hao, just listen to your uncle. Let's go to the back hall to discuss everything, it's better to negotiate, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Lin Hao looked up at Lin Yuanshan, his expression indifferent, and said, "Are you finished?"

Lin Yuanshan noticed the indifference on Lin Hao's face, which made him uncomfortable, but he finally forced a smile and said, "Finished."

"Little Hao, just listen to your uncle, okay? With so many people here, I'm doing this for the good of our Lin family."

"You can't just watch the Lin family's century-old reputation be ruined in an instant, can you?"

When he said this last sentence, Lin Yuanshan's voice lowered significantly.

But Lin Hao, hearing this, immediately said coldly, "If you haven't done anything wrong, why are you afraid of the Lin family's century-old reputation being ruined?"

Lin Yuanshan's face stiffened, and anger surged in his heart.

He glared at Lin Hao, wanting to speak, but in the end, he couldn't utter a single word.

Because Lin Hao was right, if he hadn't done anything wrong, why would he be afraid of the Lin family's century-old reputation being ruined?

Lin Hao ignored Lin Yuanshan and looked at Fifth Yuanze, saying, "You continue."

Fifth Yuanze glanced at Lin Yuanshan, then looked back at his father, and then revealed the details of the marriage alliance between the Lin family and the Fifth family, one by one.

As Fifth Yuanze gradually disclosed the details of the marriage alliance between the Lin family and the Fifth family, the various family powers who had come to attend the wedding were all stunned.

They had originally thought this was just a normal marriage alliance for a strong union.

But they never expected that behind it, the Lin family, in order to solidify their family's position in Chang'an, had begged the Fifth family for a marriage alliance.

And the Fifth family had seized the opportunity to make an exorbitant demand.

Having understood everything, everyone looked at Lin Yuanshan again, their eyes instantly changed.

Originally, they still held a trace of respect or even awe for the current head of the Lin family.

But now, in their eyes, there was only disdain and disgust.

A person who used his family's destiny to grovel was not worthy of their respect, nor their awe.

In fact, in their eyes, Lin Yuanshan now resembled a dog wagging its tail and begging for scraps.

Compared to Lin Yuanshan.

Everyone looked at Fifth Yuanze with vigilance and wariness, even with a hint of keeping him at a distance.

In the past, they had thought that Fifth Yuanze was easy to talk to, approachable, loyal, and honest.

Now, it seemed they had all been deceived. This was the true ambition of a wolf.

In fact, if they thought about it carefully, they would understand.

If Fifth Yuanze were truly a good person, how could the Fifth family have risen in just a few years?

Lin Hao ignored the discussions of the crowd and got up to leave.

The secrets of the marriage alliance between the Fifth family and the Lin family were now completely clear, and there was no point in him staying.

Of course, the most important thing was that he had forced Fifth Yuanze to reveal the secrets of the marriage alliance.

The matter of the marriage alliance between the two families was now completely ruined.

Since the Lin family and the Fifth family would no longer be allied through marriage, the Lin family's industrial foundation would not be damaged.

As for the Lin family's century-old reputation.

Lin Hao couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

The most important thing in this world was always strength.

Without strength, even the most pleasant reputation was useless.

Lin Hao shook his head and had just gotten up from his seat.

A furious roar immediately echoed throughout the entire hall!

"Lin Hao, I will kill you!"

Lin Qingsong, looking like he had gone mad, suddenly charged towards Lin Hao.

Lin Hao was stunned, clearly not expecting that the first person to charge would be Lin Qingsong.

According to Lin Hao's thoughts.

The first person to collapse, the first person to get angry, and the first person to charge at him should have been his uncle, Lin Yuanshan.

After all, his uncle Lin Yuanshan was the current head of the Lin family.
