"Beep, beep——"
Lin Chen's phone rang. Yang Qingyue was calling for a video chat.
Lin Chen answered the video call.
Xu Guofeng was also with Yang Qingyue. Lin Chen quickly called out, "Dad, Mom."
"Eh!"
Yang Qingyue responded with a smile, "Xiao Lin, Mengyao said your birthday is the day after tomorrow. Are you planning to celebrate it alone with Mengyao, or should we come over and join in the fun?"
"Are your parents coming?"
Lin Chen: "It's just a regular birthday for me. I plan to spend it with Mengyao and Qianqian. I've already told my parents not to come."
Xu Guofeng said, "Do you want to send Qianqian over so you and Mengyao can have some alone time?"
"Grandpa, I want to celebrate my birthday with Daddy. I drew Mommy, and I'm giving Mommy to Daddy."
Lin Xiaoqian said in her childish voice.
Lin Chen pointed the phone camera at Lin Xiaoqian. Xu Guofeng: "Qianqian, don't you miss Grandpa and Grandma?"
"Grandpa, I miss you."
"I'll come see you tomorrow, hee hee. The day after tomorrow is Daddy's first birthday, and I want to be with Daddy."
Lin Xiaoqian said.
Yang Qingyue said in surprise, "Qianqian, you're coming tomorrow?"
Xu Mengyao: "Mom, Lin Chen has things to do tomorrow, and there are things at the company. Lin Chen will send Qianqian over tomorrow morning."
Lin Chen had a private chef appointment with guests tomorrow.
"Alright then."
"Lin Chen, when you come tomorrow, bring your birthday gift back with you."
Yang Qingyue said.
The next day, in the morning, after having breakfast and practicing Tai Chi at home, Lin Chen sent Lin Xiaoqian to the Xu family's house.
"Grandpa, Grandma."
Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue were both home.
Seeing them, Lin Xiaoqian immediately ran over happily.
"Qianqian, Grandma missed you so much."
Yang Qingyue picked up Lin Xiaoqian and kissed her.
"Grandma, I miss you too."
Xu Guofeng looked at Lin Chen with a smile and said, "Lin Chen, come over here. Let me show you your birthday gift."
Xu Guofeng led Lin Chen to the garage.
Yang Qingyue followed behind, carrying Lin Xiaoqian.
Inside the garage was a brand new car. Xu Guofeng said, "Lin Chen, this is your birthday gift."
Lin Chen was quite surprised, "Dad, doesn't Mengyao have a Cullinan? Why did you buy another Cullinan?"
Xu Guofeng: "That car is under my name. I'll drive it myself later. Besides, this car is different from that one."
"You'll know when you go up and take a look."
Lin Chen got closer and noticed the difference, "Dad, is this Cullinan a modified bulletproof version?"
Xu Guofeng nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's a bulletproof version. Mengyao and I don't have that kind of need, but you probably will in the future."
"Don't worry, it's legally registered."
"Driving this car will make you much safer in the future."
Lin Chen opened the car door. The door was very heavy, and the glass was very thick. It could definitely withstand ordinary firearms.
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan was already very expensive, and with the bulletproof modification, this car was definitely worth no less than fifteen million.
"Dad, thank you."
Lin Chen said gratefully.
Xu Guofeng was really good to his son-in-law.
Xu Guofeng smiled and said, "You can drive this car back later. Just leave your car here."
Lin Chen nodded.
There was no need to sell his original car. Anyway, it wouldn't sell for much money. Leaving it here might be useful in the future, like for attending class reunions or something.
Driving a Cullinan or a sports car would be too high-profile.
"Daddy, you have another new car."
Lin Xiaoqian said happily.
Yang Qingyue: "Qianqian, why do you say 'another'?"
"Yesterday someone gave Daddy a new car, a short one."
Lin Xiaoqian replied.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "President Chen Zhian of Chen Group gave me a Lamborghini Aventador, and I gave him a calligraphy piece in return."
Xu Guofeng nodded.
It was good that he gave a return gift. There was no need to owe such a favor by accepting such an expensive gift without reciprocating.
"Mom, your complexion looks much better."
"Let me take your pulse."
Lin Chen said.
Yang Qingyue nodded, and Lin Chen quickly took her pulse: "Mom, your body has basically recovered. As long as you don't do heavy work, like holding Qianqian for a long time, normal life is completely fine."
"That's good."
Yang Qingyue said with a smile.
"Dad, Mom, thank you for the birthday gift. Qianqian, listen to Grandpa and Grandma, okay? Daddy will pick up Mommy from work in the evening and then come pick you up to go home."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Mmm, mmm."
Lin Chen quickly drove away in the Cullinan.
This bulletproof version of the new Cullinan was very heavy, but it had a V12 engine, and the power was still continuous.
The chances of encountering danger on the road were greatly reduced with this car.
Lin Chen wasn't particularly worried about himself. In a month, his martial arts cultivation should reach the Grandmaster level.
But he would be with Lin Xiaoqian most of the time when he went out.
What if Lin Xiaoqian got into an accident if they were attacked?
……
"Master Lin, long time no see."
Near noon, Jiang Xuesong and others arrived at Lin Chen's private kitchen.
They were the ones who made the reservation today.
Although Jiang Xuesong and the others weren't as wealthy as Ye Hong and the others, some of them were quite rich. They took turns treating, and a million-dollar meal was affordable.
It was worth it to spend a little money to eat good food and see their idol.
"Old Jiang, Old Zhang, Old Wang——"
Lin Chen called out to them one by one.
Jiang Xuesong and the others came five people this time. They had all made reservations, and the time was arranged by Lin Chen.
Jiang Xuesong said with a smile, "Master Lin, you go ahead and get busy. Master Lin, you eat with us later."
"Okay."
Lin Chen nodded in agreement.
Jiang Xuesong and the others were different from ordinary customers.
Half an hour later, Lin Chen finished all the dishes. He brought out the dishes one by one, and the aroma was intoxicating.
"Old Jiang, try it."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
Jiang Xuesong and the others politely declined a few times before picking up their chopsticks. Soon, a look of shock appeared in their eyes. Lin Chen's cooking skills had improved significantly compared to last time.
"This taste is absolutely amazing."
"Master Lin, you are too amazing. Calligraphy, fairy tale creation, and cooking are all so strong. I admire you, I admire you!"
"Master Lin——"
Jiang Xuesong and the others praised him one after another.
After eating for a while, Jiang Xuesong said, "Master Lin, we know about Wu Haoyu's matter. Do you need our help? We still have some connections."
Lin Chen shook his head.
"Old Jiang, I don't need your help. I can handle it."
It wasn't good for Old Jiang and the others to help with Wu Haoyu's matter. Wu Haoyu could have his sentence reduced, or he could not. Jiang Xuesong and the others cherished their reputation.
If it spread out that Old Jiang and a group of calligraphy masters were bullying a young man like Wu Haoyu, it would have a bad impact.
Ye Hong and the others didn't have such concerns.
For wealthy people like Yu Heran, Ye Hong, and Chen Zhian, various conflicts and confrontations in the business world were commonplace.
"Master Lin, if you need it, just say it. We old guys will definitely support you with all our strength."
Another calligraphy master said.
The other calligraphy masters all nodded.
They cherished their reputation, but if they had to help Lin Chen, even if they had to tarnish their own reputation, they would not hesitate.
