Chapter 157: I've Caught the Attention of a Big Shot

Meanwhile, Lin Jingtao and his son had just stepped out of the Yunhai Chamber of Commerce.

Standing outside the main entrance of the chamber, Lin Kaiyang looked thoroughly confident, his face brimming with schadenfreude.

"Dad, I'm so glad you stepped in this time, otherwise I would have been fuming with frustration."

"Meeting Shen Wanjun of the Yunhai Chamber of Commerce today—he's a top-tier executive from the capital consortium! He's definitely going to teach Ye Tianlin a thorough lesson later!"

"A puppet is just a puppet after all. Did he really think he had any actual power? He's nothing more than a paper tiger!"

As Lin Kaiyang spoke, a wave of exhilarating satisfaction washed over him from head to toe.

Lin Jingtao adjusted his collar and said, "A mere puppet, not even fit to be seen in polite society. Beating you up like that was bad enough, but he even had the audacity to lay a hand on me, his elder. That is sheer arrogance!"

"Dad, how do you think Ye Tianlin is going to end up after this?" Lin Kaiyang asked, unable to contain his excitement. Thinking back on the humiliation of the past few days, his eyes glowed with intense anticipation.

Lin Jingtao sneered, "How else could he end up? With me personally stepping in this time, the capital consortium will undoubtedly take this extremely seriously. I'm afraid Ye Tianlin is completely finished. Coupled with the old matriarch backing us from behind, she certainly won't let an opportunity like this slip by. In the end, Ye Tianlin is going to suffer a miserably tragic fate!"

Lin Kaiyang immediately clapped in applause, beaming with joy as he said, "It really takes someone like you to help me vent this anger properly!"

A look of deep indulgence crossed Lin Jingtao's face. He reached out to pat Lin Kaiyang's shoulder and said earnestly, "I only have one son. If I don't help you, who am I going to help? Besides, you've suffered such a heavy grievance; of course I couldn't just let it go!"

Seeing Lin Kaiyang's radiant, smiling face, it suddenly dawned on him, and he asked with a puzzled look, "By the way, where did Feng Sihai run off to?"

"He went to see your grandfather, saying they had to host a distinguished guest today with special arrangements made for Feng Sihai!" Lin Jingtao explained.

Lin Kaiyang furrowed his brows in surprise and asked with curiosity, "What distinguished guest? There aren't that many people who could warrant a personal reception from Grandpa!"

"I'm not sure of the exact details. I originally planned to go myself and bring you along, but who would have thought that blind fool Ye Tianlin would stir up such trouble? At this hour, the banquet should already be over, right?" Lin Jingtao raised his wrist to check his watch.

A look of regret flickered across Lin Kaiyang's face. Although he was usually quite the prodigal playboy, he was always eager to rub shoulders with big shots—after all, more connections meant more paths to success!

However, thinking of the humiliating end awaiting Ye Tianlin soon, Lin Kaiyang's mood quickly settled. He figured that the more arrogant Ye Tianlin was acting now, the harder he would fall in the end.

While the capital consortium undeniably possessed immense strength, the crucial point was that Ye Tianlin was not the true master. Combined with his grandfather's reputation, this would undoubtedly be a fatal blow!

His own arrogance and domineering attitude stemmed from absolute confidence and background!

As for Ye Tianlin, he was completely devoid of any foundation—all show and no substance—occupying an entirely different realm.

After lingering outside the chamber doors for about a few minutes, the father and son prepared to get into their car and leave.

Yet, no sooner had they settled into the vehicle than Lin Jingtao received a call from Old Master Lin!

Lin Jingtao immediately answered, switching on the car's speakerphone so Lin Kaiyang could listen in.

A smile crept across Lin Jingtao's face as he took the initiative to ask, "Grandpa, has your banquet ended?"

"The main course hasn't even been served yet. Why aren't you and Lin Kaiyang rushing over here? My distinguished guest today expressed a strong interest and wants to meet both of you." On the other end of the line, Old Master Lin was desperately suppressing his rage, holding back from erupting just yet.

Hearing this, Lin Kaiyang burst into laughter, exclaiming with mounting excitement, "Grandpa, are you serious? Your distinguished guest actually wants to meet us?"

"Hahaha, this is such a wonderful surprise!" Lin Jingtao wore an expression of radiant triumph, thinking to himself that all of the Old Master's connections were top-tier heavyweights. If Lin Kaiyang could interact with them more often, the future benefits would naturally be boundless.

Old Master Lin replied, "The even bigger surprise is yet to come, because the person my distinguished guest wants to see the most is Lin Kaiyang!"

"What? Wonderful, wonderful, we're heading over right now!" Lin Kaiyang was overjoyed, nearly jumping up inside the car.

After hanging up, Lin Jingtao smiled from ear to ear, his joy overflowing. "Kaiyang, when you see that distinguished guest later, you must put on your best behavior! Who knows, that distinguished guest might even be a figure of the same generation and age as your grandfather!"

"Definitely! I'm not stupid. I never imagined I'd actually live to see the day a big shot pays attention to me. I always thought very few people around Grandpa even knew who I was!" Lin Kaiyang could barely wait, feeling completely lightheaded with excitement.
