Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband - Chapter 1925
1925 Just To Meet You
It was a habit she had retained in the past. She kept a knife on her body to protect herself from both animals and hooligans.
After seeing that it was Lin Yu, she put away her knife and closed her eyes calmly before falling asleep again.
Lin Yu was deep in thought. He sat next to her for a while before turning off the lights and walking out.
…
The next day, the results of the bidding for the project would be announced.
!!
When Sister Ai and Su Shulin arrived at the scene, Lin Yu was already dressed in formal attire.
Su Shulin quickly stepped forward. “Did you find Yao Yao?”
“Yeah.”
“Is she okay? Is she okay?”
“She’s okay.”
Before Su Shulin could ask anything else, Sha Yu and Zhou Lang arrived. Zhou Cheng was also beside the mother and son.
Zhou Cheng looked unhappy. Last night, after Sha Yu and Zhou Lang returned home, they exaggerated Lin Yu’s actions. Zhou Cheng was so angry that he couldn’t sleep well the entire night.
Lin Yu’s behavior was too disappointing! To think that he had high hopes for him to train in this bidding. Who knew that he would abandon his job for a woman?!
When Zhou Cheng came in, his face was gloomy. He went to Lin Yu’s side and asked, “Where did you go yesterday?”
“I had some personal matters to deal with.” Lin Yu’s expression was calm as if he hadn’t gotten emotional last night. It was as if what he did last night was not a big deal.
“Private matter? What private matter can compare to work?” Zhou Cheng said angrily. “I don’t expect you to be able to get such a big project in one fell swoop. But it’s never wrong for you to take it as a learning experience.”
Seeing that Lin Yu did not refute and maintained a calm expression, Zhoug Cheng did not want to break his son’s heart too much. He softened his tone and said earnestly, “You’ve just entered this industry and are still inexperienced, so I want to wait for you to learn more before teaching you more. It’s not easy to come across a bidding event like this. Zhou Lang already has a lot of experience. I originally wanted you to learn more from him so that you could prepare for the future. Who knew that you would give up such a good opportunity!”
“So?” Lin Yu asked.
Zhou Cheng was immediately angered. Sha Yu hurriedly pulled him and said, “Alright, hubby. Don’t talk to our son like that. Yu’er isn’t an insensible child. It must be because what happened last night is indeed more important than the bid. That’s why he rushed over. There’s no point in you saying all those things.”
On the surface, she was speaking up for Lin Yu, but in fact, she was adding fuel to the fire, making Zhou Cheng even angrier.
However, it was not convenient for him to flare up in public.
Even so, his attitude toward Lin Yu was greatly affected.
Sha Yu pulled him aside and tried to persuade him. “Hubby, Yu’er grew up outside, after all. His behavior and habits are definitely different from when he was by your side. You should be more patient with him. Otherwise, the more you teach him, the more resentment he’ll have.”
“He doesn’t dare, but it won’t do him any good. You have to take it slow. When you’re exhausted, let Lang’er share your burden.”
Zhou Cheng recalled that his other son was obedient, sensible, and filial. Only then did he feel a little better.
Zhou Lang raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Yu with a proud expression on his face.
Su Shulin was so angry that he wanted to beat him up.
“Don’t be impulsive.” Lin Yu pulled him back.
He thought of something and immediately asked, “So what happened to Yao Yao after that?”
Lin Yu let go of him. “Just focus on defeating Zhou Lang.”
Su Shulin: “…Lin Stone, what grudge do I have against you?”
Lin Yu lowered his head and thought of the name Ning Nuo. It was as if he had discovered a secret. Only he knew about this little secret. He could not help but smile.
In the conference room, everyone collectively sat down and waited for the final outcome.
This project was at the national level and was known for fair and just bidding results.
Once a company got such a project, it would be very beneficial to them.
Sha Yu was determined to win. All she needed to do was get the project and the whole family would celebrate their win.
A moment later, the project manager announced the results. “After yesterday’s fair and just bidding, we’ve confirmed that the company that won the bid is the construction company under Lin Yu’s name.”
“What?” Sha Yu couldn’t help but stand up, her expression ugly.
Zhou Lang did not expect things to turn out like this.
“How did this happen?”
“The bidding this time strictly adhered to the standard procedures. We also made our selection through legal methods. If you have any objections, you can complain to the relevant departments.”
Sha Yu and Zhou Lang sat down. Of course, they would not complain.
They weren’t questioning the procedure, but they couldn’t figure out why the winner was Lin Yu.
He was just in charge of a small company!
He was clearly distracted before the bidding last night!
Lin Yu stood up and politely thanked the project manager. Then, he shook hands with the heads of the other competing companies and chatted briefly.
Although Zhou Cheng was surprised, he was quite happy. After all, it was his son!
When he looked at Lin Yu, his eyes were shining.
“Yu’er, you’re really not bad. Not bad at all!” Zhou Cheng patted his shoulder. “How about this? Let’s have dinner together tonight to celebrate, okay?”
“I have some personal matters to attend to tonight, so I won’t be able to celebrate with you for the time being.”
Zhou Cheng’s expression froze.
Lin Yu turned around and left.
Sister Ai and Su Shulin followed. Su Shulin smiled. “So, are you treating us to dinner tonight?”
“Another day. I have something to do today.” Lin Yu handed him the document. “Thank you for your hard work last night.”
Seeing him get into the car, Sister Ai sighed again. “Of all the people you like, why do you have to like that bimbo?”
“Sister Ai, Yao Yao is not the person you think she is.”
Sister Ai glanced at him. “Men really can’t tell b*tches apart!”
“Why can’t I tell? I don’t care if you say that I’m not good at other things, but I’m not happy about you saying I can’t tell b*tches apart! I’m an expert at it!”
Sister Ai: “???”
‘Yeah, you know a lot.’
When Ning Nuo woke up, her mouth was dry. She poured a large glass of water and drank it to feel better.
She saw the porridge on the coffee table and Lin Yu’s note that read: [Eat some. If it’s cold, there’s a microwave in the kitchen downstairs.]
She was indeed hungry. She was so sick yesterday that she did not eat much. Now, her stomach was growling.
Being sick was really too exhausting.
After finishing a big bowl of century egg and lean meat porridge in one go, she regained her strength and planned to go back to her villa to take a shower.
