"How could I have raised such a heartless son like you!" Jiang Shuqin seethed, her teeth clenched. She truly regretted it—why hadn’t she strangled him back then? Instead, she had left him in the wilderness.
Lin Xuan’s expression was aloof. "Mrs. Jiang, you’re right, I truly am a heartless wretch. This video is my first gift to you. A reunion gift, if you will." A reunion gift for his rebirth.
"There will be more gifts to come in the future," Lin Xuan said with a faint smile, his eyes filled with endless coldness.
"You, you!" Jiang Shuqin was so furious that her chest heaved violently.
Lin Chang also looked at Lin Xuan with a grim expression.
He hadn’t expected that Lin Xuan now viewed the Lin family as his enemies.
Lin Chang coldly stated, "Lin Xuan, do you think that because you’ve been kept by someone, you’ve grown wings and can now stand against the Lin family?"
"Whether I can or not, why don’t we find out?" Lin Xuan shrugged.
Lin Chang didn’t take Lin Xuan seriously at all.
Just one individual like Lin Xuan attempting to challenge a massive entity like the Lin family? It was laughable!
He never thought his son would not only be morally corrupt but also so utterly delusional!
How could he have sired such a son?
"Fine, fine, Lin Xuan. I’ll be watching to see what you can do to the Starlight Group," Lin Chang said, almost laughing in anger.
Lin Li clenched his fists.
He didn’t harbor any concerns about Lin Xuan, this so-called worthless person. However, Lin Xuan’s backing was Su Hua, the woman who held sway over Su Corporation, capable of flipping the world upside down with a mere wave of her hand.
That said, if Lin Xuan harbored such deep hatred for the Lin family, why not just have Su Hua act against them?
Thinking this, Lin Li’s expression darkened.
Lin Xuan hadn’t considered causing the Starlight Group to collapse. By making such bold claims, he was clearly trying to draw the attention of the Lin family!
Today, Lin Xuan had exposed his ugly side in front of his parents, which was sure to drive a wedge between them.
By driving him away, Lin Xuan himself could return to the Lin family.
Lin Xuan hadn’t relied on his relationship with Su Hua to return to the Lin family because he knew that Su Hua, a woman of such status, merely viewed him as a plaything.
Lin Xuan was well aware that even if he returned to the Lin family as a young master by clinging to Su Hua, one day when Su Hua cast him aside, he would also be ousted from the Lin family.
Therefore, Lin Xuan was taking a long-term approach. First, he would subtly use Su Hua’s influence to make his parents and sisters lose all hope in him.
Once he was driven out of the Lin family, Lin Xuan would return triumphantly.
Yes! It must be like this!
Lin Li’s gaze was laced with cold intent.
He hadn’t expected Lin Xuan to be wiser than he’d thought. He admitted, this time, he had lost.
But he would only lose once.
Lin Xuan would never trap him again!
"Mrs. Jiang, Chairman Lin, I’m leaving now. I wish you all a harmonious family life, and may you never drift apart," Lin Xuan turned and left.
With the show over, it was time for him to go find Su Hua.
Lin Qingwan rushed back from the company, having already heard about everything that had transpired at the banquet while on her way.
As soon as she entered the banquet hall, she encountered Lin Xuan heading her way.
"Xiao Xuan," Lin Qingwan blocked Lin Xuan.
"What is it?" Lin Xuan asked coldly.
"Xiao Xuan, I’ve heard about what happened at the banquet," Lin Qingwan said, pursing her lips. "Don’t blame your older sister for being harsh, but you made a mistake."
Lin Qingwan once again began to lecture Lin Xuan from her moral high ground.
"Xiao Xuan, even if Xiao Li and Qin Ruoyao were entangled, their affairs should’ve been resolved privately within our family, not exposed like this at the banquet."
"You’ve tarnished the reputation of the Lin family, and as a listed company, this will also affect Starlight Group."
Of course, Lin Qingwan was also worried that this incident would further strain Lin Xuan’s relationship with the Lin family.
It would make it even harder for Lin Xuan to return to the family in the future.
Lin Xuan’s expression remained indifferent.
"All of this, I am aware of," Lin Xuan said, his lips curling into a mocking smile. "I chose today to expose it deliberately."
"Xiao Xuan, you…" Lin Qingwan’s face showed disappointment.
She hadn’t expected Lin Xuan to truly act against the Lin family. They were all family, and even if their parents had treated him poorly, they were the ones who had brought him into this world.
How could Lin Xuan behave in such a way?
"Xiao Xuan, such actions against your parents will make outsiders see you as heartless, which will damage your reputation," Lin Qingwan said earnestly.
"Reputation? You’re talking to me about reputation?" Lin Xuan’s tone was mocking. "Since returning to the Lin family, when has my reputation ever been good? Since it’s already so bad, I don’t mind adding the stigma of being a heartless wretch against my family."
Lin Qingwan was momentarily speechless.
“Lin Qingwan, a good dog doesn’t get in the way, and you’re blocking my path,” Lin Xuan’s voice carried no emotion.
Lin Qingwan could only step aside.
Lin Xuan left, and Lin Qingwan watched his retreating back, her eyes brimming with tears.
They were blood-related kin, yet now they seemed like enemies.
Lin Qingwan walked over to Jiang Shuqin in a daze.
"Wan’er, what did you just say to Lin Xuan?" Lin Chang frowned, asking.
Lin Qingwan, pale-faced, recounted Lin Xuan’s words word for word.
"Bang!"
Lin Chang, furious, slammed his fist on the table.
Jiang Shuqin also clenched her teeth and said, "I told you not to bring Lin Xuan back then, didn’t I? Look at what he’s done to our family now?"
Lin Chang was also filled with regret.
He shouldn’t have brought Lin Xuan back from the orphanage, just because he was his son.
Lin Xuan had been wild for so long that his character was already unredeemable.
He had never seen any son opposing his own family like this!
"Husband, you must teach Lin Xuan a lesson," Jiang Shuqin said through gritted teeth.
“He’s still a student, what kind of punishment can I give him?” Lin Chang lit a cigarette, puffing on it restlessly.
"But I’ll send someone to find out who’s keeping him."
If it was just someone with a little money, he would command her to cut ties with Lin Xuan.
Starlight Group’s gaming division was doing well, with many computer talents in the company, so they had some sway in the computer field.
When Lin Xuan graduated, he would make sure Lin Xuan couldn’t find a job.
Then Lin Xuan would realize that without the Lin family, he was nothing!
Jiang Shuqin's cold gaze fell upon Qin Ruoyao, who was pale-faced.
I never thought that even fraud would be attempted on Xiao Li’s head. Qin Ruoyao, you truly are worthy of being Lin Xuan’s fiancée!" Jiang Shuqin’s face was frozen in a dark expression.
If it weren’t for this vixen, today’s incident wouldn’t have happened!
How would Xiao Li ever show his face outside again?
"Auntie, I never intended to harm Xiao Li. I like Xiao Li, why would I harm him?" Qin Ruoyao said tearfully.
lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
