Chapter 260 - 259: Wushuang’s Confession
"Huh? Wushuang, we..."
"Chen Tianlong, don’t speak!"
Chen Tianlong’s mouth was blocked again, this time, Lin Wushuang used her lips to seal it. At this moment, Chen Tianlong felt an indescribable feeling, he wanted to refuse, but was that the right thing to do?
This was the kind of words and genuine actions you would expect from a girl who thought she was dreaming.
Chen Tianlong closed his eyes, letting Lin Wushuang hold him and kiss him.
A few seconds later, the two separated, and Lin Wushuang looked at him with deep affection, tears streaming down her face: "Chen Tianlong, I’m really afraid that when this dream ends, you won’t be by my side anymore. Although I usually love arguing with you, often scold you, blame you, but I... I like you."
"Huh?"
Chen Tianlong was stunned. Is this... is this the real young lady? Why does it feel like his brain isn’t processing it? Lin Wushuang likes him? Is this a mistake?
"Knock knock knock....."
Suddenly, two people rushed in at the door, Chen Tianlong took a closer look, and it turned out to be Bao and Zhang Xiao. However, seeing the scene was somewhat ambiguous, the two instinctively turned around as if they hadn’t seen anything.
"Eh? Why are these two... also here?" Lin Wushuang already realized something was wrong, instinctively pinching her thigh, "Ow... it hurt."
"Ah? Wushuang, where does it hurt? Let me check." Chen Tianlong was heartbroken, caring despite not knowing much.
"Darn Tianlong, so we’re not dreaming, ah....."
Lin Wushuang thought of her previous actions and those mushy words, her face instantly turned red, hiding her head and not daring to look at Chen Tianlong again.
Just muttering non-stop: "Darn Chen Tianlong, dead Chen Tianlong, so embarrassed, didn’t tell me sooner."
"Aha, Wushuang, I reminded you before, but you covered my mouth and kissed me, there was no way to resist." Chen Tianlong said with a bitter smile.
"Hmph, you couldn’t resist? I think you were trying to take advantage, you big rascal, ignoring you." After saying this, Lin Wushuang buried her face in Chen Tianlong’s chest.
Since the words had been said, there was no point in leaning on Chen Tianlong’s chest.
Bao and Zhang Xiao saw everything was fine and closed the door.
At this point, Chen Tianlong boldly hugged Lin Wushuang, stroking her hair.
"Wushuang, uh... do you really like me?"
Chen Tianlong felt a little chaotic inside. To be honest, he had a special feeling about Lin Wushuang. Being by her side always made him feel very happy, a different kind of happiness from Wu Mengting.
Chen Tianlong admitted that at this moment he was indeed a little fickle.
But when it comes to feelings, you can’t just stop thinking about them and they’ll go away. Now with Lin Wushuang truly beside him, he feels joy, only he doesn’t know how to face this reality.
"What about Mengting?"
Lin Wushuang didn’t directly answer Chen Tianlong’s question. Over the days, she had spent some time with Wu Mengting, knowing she was kind, and a good person in general. Taking Chen Tianlong away would really be unkind.
However, she couldn’t deceive herself, liking Chen Tianlong was an undeniable fact.
"Mengting, uh... that..."
"Alright, I know the answer. This matter ends here. From now on, I won’t talk to you about these things, just let it stay in my heart. Please keep this secret for me, I don’t want Mengting to be sad."
Lin Wushuang took a deep breath, held back her tears, then stood up and said, "Let’s go back, we have more important things to do next. Now we must let Dad know I’m alright!"
"Okay."
Chen Tianlong recalled this task, checked the phone, and it was exactly twelve thirty.
The four of them quickly drove to the Lin Group, and on the way, Chen Tianlong called Lin Batian, who was in the middle of a shareholder meeting.
After hearing Lin Wushuang’s familiar voice on the phone, Lin Batian made a decisive decision.
"I decide, this time we will attend the four major family selection conference promptly!"
As soon as Lin Batian said this, there was a buzz of discussion at the venue, some people started to stir things up.
"President Lin, Gu Haijun, He Tongping, and Liang Hongwei, the three major shareholders have allied to withdraw from Lin Group. So what qualification does Lin Group have to participate?"
This person was none other than He Tongping himself, who was truly bought off.
"Is that so? It’s only twelve thirty. What if later Gu Haijun and Liang Hongwei decide not to withdraw?" Lin Batian said ambiguously.
"That’s impossible, these two have already had private meetings with me, it’s a solid decision." He Tongping obviously didn’t believe Lin Batian’s words.
"Hehe, then let’s let time prove everything."
Lin Batian didn’t want to say more, directly announced, "Everyone, today’s meeting is concluded, the final decision is, Lin Group will continue to participate in the selection."
After a round of applause, everyone began to leave.
He Tongping heard Lin Batian’s decision, was very frustrated, earlier he heard from Hao Shuai that Lin Batian would definitely announce withdrawal from the selection, why did he suddenly change his mind now, it was very puzzling.
Hence, he couldn’t wait to call Hao Shuai.
"President He? What’s the matter?"
Hao Shuai was taken aback, why was He Tongping calling him now, what’s going on?
"Ping, I feel something’s off, Lin Batian, that old stubborn, why does he resolutely want to attend the selection, what’s going on?" He Tongping said directly.
"Oh? Is this actually happening?"
Hao Shuai clearly raised an eyebrow.
"It’s absolutely true, the meeting just ended." He Tongping said.
"Hmm, I get it, I’ll have people confirm and see what’s actually happening." Hao Shuai hung up the phone, thought for a while, suddenly felt uneasy, quickly dialed Ye Xiong’s number.
But after ringing for a long time, no one picked up the phone, starting to feel a bit anxious.
After thinking again, he directly dialed Mo Shaoyun’s number, informing them of the change in the situation. Master Mo and Elder Hao immediately took action, gathering at the Hao Family to hold another meeting.
At this moment, Hao Shuai had already sent a team to the Flying Eagle Gang’s secret base to check, what exactly happened to Ye Xiong and the others.
But it would take at least twenty minutes to get to the base, and now the time was already one twenty, soon it would be time for the South Sea City’s four great family selection, the situation was simply urgent.
"Hao Shuai, are you saying that Lin Batian decided to attend the selection? Doesn’t he care about his daughter anymore? Even if he doesn’t, but the three major shareholders have united in withdrawal, they don’t qualify for selection, right?"
Hao Dahai also couldn’t understand, the situation was indeed too sudden.
"Dad, I don’t know either, I’ve already sent people to check the base, Ye Xiong and the other two brothers from Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall also haven’t reported back, not sure what happened." Hao Shuai explained urgently.
"But even if something happened to them, how do you explain the three major shareholders?" Elder Hao asked.
