Chapter 165: Su Weimin is Stunned on the Spot

At this moment, Su Weimin was utterly dumbfounded.

He had originally assumed that Lin Kaiyang was merely putting on a show to go through the motions.

Yet, the reality was quite the opposite. This was entirely true; Elder Lin had made up his mind to thoroughly discipline him and had entrusted the whole matter unconditionally!

Otherwise, how could Lin Kaiyang possibly adopt such an attitude, and why would he be so timid and submissive?

Su Weimin gasped, his mind instantly blanking out as an unimaginable answer suddenly surged into his thoughts, vaguely emerging to the surface.

Could it be...

Could this fellow, Ye Tianlin, truly be the master of the Imperial Capital Consortium?!

However, Su Weimin quickly regained his composure, shook his head inwardly, and abruptly dismissed the thought, reasoning that it was utterly impossible. Most likely, this was simply the result of Elder Lin's firm determination, which was why Lin Kaiyang was so terrified!

Besides, who throughout Jiangnan was unaware of Lin Kaiyang's reputation as a prodigal son?

Having caused such a massive trouble this time, one that even involved the Imperial Capital Consortium, Elder Lin must have lost face completely, which explained why he made such a drastic decision!

With this thought, Su Weimin's expression became even more certain. He muttered to himself that this had to be the truth; apart from this explanation, there was no other more logical one.

Therefore, Su Weimin made a decisive judgment and said, "Young Master Lin, I believe you are overthinking this. We certainly won't make things difficult for you, and we guarantee that you will successfully pass Elder Lin's test!"

Completely unaware of Su Weimin's inner musings and believing that he was deliberately acting, Lin Kaiyang was frightened to the point of dropping to his knees with a thud, throwing his arms around Ye Tianlin's thigh.

Tears and snot streaming down his face, Lin Kaiyang trembled as he pleaded, "Can you please stop acting? I truly never dare to do it again. I know how much of a bastard I used to be, but I swear I will change!"

Su Weimin's heart tightened. He hurriedly reached out to help him up, explaining, "Young Master Lin, I am not acting. I am telling the absolute truth."

Yet Lin Kaiyang stubbornly refused to get up, his hands clinging tightly to Ye Tianlin's thigh as he wailed, "You are still trying to fool me! I am no three-year-old child. If I believe your words today, who knows when you'll turn around and report this to my grandfather? I'll be completely finished by then!"

Anxiety etched across Su Weimin's brow, and he decisively shot a glare at Ye Tianlin. "What are you standing there for in a daze? Why don't you help him up quickly and talk things out properly? Do you really think that just because you've received Elder Lin's commission, you can act unscrupulously and bully Young Master Lin?"

"Dad, what on earth are you doing? Can't you even tell what the current situation is?" Su Rulan demanded.

Su Weimin twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "My guess earlier was indeed wrong, but it's not far off the mark. It's nothing more than Elder Lin making up his mind and leaving everything to him in full charge. Still, we shouldn't go too far!"

Seeing this scene, Lin Kaiyang finally understood that Su Weimin wasn't deliberately putting on an act, but rather had a severely distorted understanding of the truth. He immediately raised his voice and shouted, "What do you mean by not going too far? Even if Ye Tianlin beats me up again today, it's entirely my own fault!"

"To hell with being Young Master Lin! From this day forward, within the Yunhai Chamber of Commerce, I, Lin Kaiyang, am nothing more than a little brother in front of Ye Tianlin. None of you are allowed to treat me with any special courtesy!"

"Whatever Ye Tianlin tells me to do, I must do it. Forget about treating me like a dog, even if he tells me to shovel feces, I... I am willing!"

Upon hearing this, Su Weimin was struck dumb on the spot!

Ye Tianlin raised an eyebrow. "How did it become shoveling feces? I recall it was eating shit?"

Lin Kaiyang swallowed hard, a smile far more hideous than crying on his face. Completely stripped of any backbone, he nodded vigorously like a pestle pounding garlic. "Yes, yes, yes! Whatever you say goes. Forget about shoveling feces, you can even make me, Lin Kaiyang, eat shit!"

In an instant, a roaring explosion echoed inside Su Weimin's head, feeling as though he had been struck by a bolt from the blue!
