In the conference room, the reporters’ cameras were still on. In front of both parties was a new cooperation agreement.
In fact, Old Madam Yue also thought that if she saw her enemy again, she would still be as hateful as before. She would want to make Old Madam Lin disappear from this world. However, when it came to meeting her, she let go of it because Lin Wanli had sublimated the hatred in her heart and made her understand one thing. If she really hated someone and avoided them, she would only be the one who had herself trapped.
The real revenge was to let the other party see how powerful she was and how unstoppable she was. Because this would make the enemy anxious and afraid.
It was because Lin Wanli never put herself in Ye Zhenzhen’s shoes that Ye Zhenzhen was defeated. Lin Wanli had never treated her as an opponent. Her only opponent was herself.
“After so many years of grudges, I didn’t expect you to be willing to cooperate for Lin Wanli.” Old Madam Lin flipped through the contract in her hand and sighed.
“Because she made me understand that I won by sitting here today.” Old Madam Yue pressed her walking stick with both hands and said, “The reason why I chose to cooperate is not that I forgive you, nor is it because I believe in the Lin Group. I believe in Lin Wanli’s professionalism. Especially after watching today’s scene, I’m even more certain that my judgment was right.”
Old Madam Lin should have experienced the difference between Ye Zhenzhen and Lin Wanli today.
“I underestimated you in the past.” At this moment, Old Lady Lin looked at Lin Wanli and said, “However, this is not the reason why I love Zhenzhen and not you.”
Lin Wanli turned her head and rolled her eyes speechlessly. She turned her gaze back to Old Madam Lin and said, “I really don’t want to repeat myself. It has nothing to do with me who you love. I never needed your approval.” “Then why must you ruin Zhenzhen’s reputation? Do you hate her that much?”
“Because she wanted to ruin my reputation first!” Lin Wanli retorted, “If you have the time to argue with me, why don’t you pull your little sweetheart away and make her stop doing disgusting things? I’m not always so good-tempered. Take Qin Huaijing as an example.”
“Since this is an occasion to discuss cooperation, let’s not mention personal grudges. It’s a little old and we won’t have any fruitful results from discussing about it.”
At this moment, Old Madame Lin and Ye Weiyin truly felt that Lin Wanli was no longer the good-for-nothing from two years ago. She just sat there, but her scheming and shrewdness were unfathomable.
After returning to work, Lin Wanli once again impressed the people present. She was impartial and put the needs and potential crises of both parties on the surface. She also bound all possible disputes in the contract.
She seemed to be more familiar with the terms than lawyers and more sensitive to crises than business elites.
In the end, under her efforts, the Lin Group and the Yue Group completed the ice-breaking cooperation and signed the most difficult contract in the history
of the Lin Group.
In the stairwell, Ye Zhenzhen was finally tired from crying. She looked up at Xu Menglan and asked, “Aunt Meng, am I really inferior to Lin Wanli?”
“How could that be? For so many years, you were better than Lin Wanli in every aspect. Everyone could see it for themselves. It’s just that she has become vicious and you’re kind, so you can’t win against her.” Xu Menglan consoled her sincerely, “Think about it, a person who can even frame her own father, what else can’t she do?”
“She hates you out of jealousy. Look at how much Old Madam Lin dotes on you. The young master of the Zhou family also loves you. Doesn’t this mean that you’re better than her? You mustn’t be angry with Old Madam Lin. It must be Lin Wanli’s trap. She was really forced into it. If you want to be angry with Old Madam Lin, isn’t that what Lin Wanli wants?”
After hearing Xu Menglan’s words, Ye Zhenzhen felt a lot better. Although she could not accept the comments from the outside world, just as Xu Menglan said, if she really fell out with the old lady, she would fall deeper into Lin Wanli’s trap.
“You’ve suffered so much this time. Old Madam Lin will definitely make it up to you. Just pretend to be pitiful. Don’t be angry with her.”
With Xu Menglan’s comforting words, Ye Zhenzhen finally stopped crying. She got up from the steps and patted her expensive long dress. She tidied up her makeup and left her red eyes, looking so pitiful…
She had not lost yet.
Xu Menglan did everything according to Lin Wanli’s instructions. She always placed Ye Zhenzhen on a high pedestal, so that she could never see herself clearly in her life. However, she would be constantly frustrated.
In the conference room, the signing process had already been completed.
Both sides were ready to retreat. At this moment, Old Madam Lin suddenly called out to Lin Xueyi, “If you plan to move to Lin Wanli’s place, then do what she did. Return all the Lin family’s things. I’m going to take back the villa and use it for another purpose.”
Lin Wanli’s face darkened. She wanted to speak, but Lin Xueyi stopped her and asked Old Madam Lin calmly, “Does this mean that our mother-daughter relationship has come to an end?”
“You can interpret it as such,” replied Old Madam Lin.
“Just nice, I’m free now. Mom, do you know why you can’t save your son? If it weren’t for you making things difficult for me, your son would have been alive.
It’s not that I didn’t want to save him, but you ruined your son’s only chance. This is called karma.”
After she finished speaking, Lin Xueyi held Lin Wanli’s hand and said, “From now on, I have nothing to worry about. I don’t have to live looking at your face anymore.”
Lin Wanli raised her hands and wrapped them around her mother’s right hand to give her strength.
Then, Lin Wanli looked at the surrounding reporters and said, “Report this as well. The Chairman of the Lin Group has severed ties with Lin Xueyi. From now on, there will be no more ties and they will both go their own ways.”
At this moment, Old Madam Yue looked at Old Mada Lin and found it rather interesting. She commented, “I didn’t expect that after so many years, you would still make the stupidest choice.”
“Mom, let’s go.” Lin Wanli pulled Lin Xueyi away from her seat. However, before that, Lin Wanli said to Old Madam Lin, “We’ll meet again in a few days.
Old Madam Lin, wait and see.”
The three of them left. At this time, Ye Zhenzhen stood at the door of the meeting room, feeling aggrieved.
Old Madam Lin was heartbroken. She reached out her hand to Ye Zhenzhen and said, “Come, baby. Grandma has let you down. Come and hug me.”
Ye Zhenzhen’s tears fell and she immediately rushed over. She whimpered,
“Grandma…”
“It was my fault. Let’s go home and I’ll explain to you. Is that okay? Stop crying…”
Lin Wanli sneered and helped Old Madam Yue out of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce with Lin Xueyi.
After getting into the car, Lin Xueyi looked out of the car window. Lin Wanli knew that her mother was feeling hurt.
“Mom…”
“Aren’t you going to work at the Yue Group? It won’t be convenient for you to stay at Yujing Peak after Jiuxiao returns home either, so why don’t you move to the Yue family house and keep me company?” asked Old Madam Yue.
“You guys are thinking too much. I’m just thinking about whether I should choose an auspicious day to get the shares of the Lin Group. Also, I still have to deal with that trash Qin Huaijing.” Lin Xueyi turned her gaze back. Although her eyes were red, she was stubborn..
