Chapter 649 649: Publicly Mocking Chen Xuan
Just as Zhang Dehou and Zhang Jun were discussing new strategies, Lin Zhiguo and Zhang Ru followed Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi to the luxury villa.
"Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, why don't you stay here for the time being?" Chen Xuan opened the door with a smile, inviting the two elders inside.
Lin Zhiguo responded with a smile, "This house is quite luxurious! You two really know how to enjoy life, hahaha."
What was originally just a teasing joke, Zhang Ru took seriously and snorted, "Isn't it Wanxi who spent the money? Chen Xuan just freeloads shamelessly."
Lin Wanxi shook her head and said, "Mom, don't always look down on Chen Xuan, this house wasn't bought with my money, Chen Xuan arranged for it."
Zhang Ru remained unconvinced, "Wanxi, you don't have to deliberately speak well of him. He arranged it, does Chen Xuan have that kind of money?"
"It really wasn't my money," Lin Wanxi laughed out of frustration, "anyway, this house has nothing to do with me."
"Hmph, then it's also rented by Chen Xuan. I absolutely don't believe he can afford such a luxurious villa," Zhang Ru gave Chen Xuan a cold glance.
Chen Xuan touched his nose with a smile, "It wasn't bought or rented, a friend gave it to me for temporary use."
"Hehe, you really know how to make excuses to glorify yourself," Zhang Ru sneered, "I just look down on people like you who are so hypocritical!"
"Alright, regardless of how the house came about, having a place to live is already good," Lin Zhiguo waved his hand slightly, changing the subject, "Wanxi, did you really hand over the Jiangnan City logistics hub for the Zhang Family to manage?"
Lin Wanxi nodded, "Yes, Grandfather and Uncle asked, so I couldn't refuse."
"I just didn't expect that their appetite was so big, they even want to take advantage of our health products."
Lin Wanxi was relatively tactful, not daring to say the Zhang Family was insatiably greedy and ugly in front of her mother.
Zhang Ru's face changed unpredictably, "Old Lin, what should we do about this?"
"The Zhang Family is my maiden family, I don't want to make relations tense over this matter again."
"I understand, but let me say something I shouldn't, your dad and brother are a bit too much," Lin Zhiguo looked displeased, "Chen Xuan is absolutely right, they clearly have ulterior motives!"
"If we compromise and let go of part of the health product market, they will definitely stab us in the back to seize more benefits."
Lin Wanxi quickly persuaded, "Mom, in this matter, you can't be too accommodating to the Zhang Family and neglect our own interests."
"I voluntarily gave up the logistics hub to the Zhang Family for operations, which already gave them enough face. Their further demands are clearly treating us as outsiders!"
Sigh!
Zhang Ru sighed lightly, "I'm well aware, your grandfather and uncle indeed went a bit too far."
"Let's wait and see, if they really insist, Mom won't care anymore."
Hearing this, Lin Wanxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as her mom didn't get involved, everything would be easier to handle.
...
The next morning, Zhang Jun took the initiative to call, inviting them to eat at Hongfu Building.
"Let's go, we'll just go and eat, and watch what happens," Lin Zhiguo called out, getting into the car to leave.
Chen Xuan was responsible for driving, and the family arrived at Hongfu Building, which happened to be the place where he and Xiao Yiyi had eaten last time.
The hotel manager looked visibly surprised when he saw Chen Xuan.
Last time, he blindly fawned over Luo Yuanliang and offended Chen Xuan, but didn't bother him much.
Moreover, knowing the relationship between Chen Xuan and the Luo Family, he didn't dare to be careless at all.
He immediately called the hotel owner, "Boss Wang, that Mr. Chen is here for a meal, he's a great benefactor of the Luo Family!"
Upon hearing this, Boss Wang didn't dare to be careless, "Little Li, make sure he gets well served! Later, in my name, send over a good bottle of wine."
"I'll come over to toast personally later. Important hidden figures like this must be given proper respect, it's beneficial for the hotel business!"
"Understood." Manager Li responded.
When Chen Xuan and his family entered the private room, the Zhang Family members had already arrived.
Apart from Zhang Dehou and Zhang Jun, Zhang Yan had also specially brought her boyfriend, Zhu Feng, who also sat in the private room.
"Sister, let me introduce you, this is my daughter's boyfriend, Zhu Feng, the young master of the second-tier Zhu Family."
Zhang Jun had a face full of pride as he laughed.
Zhu Feng was instantly stunned when he saw Lin Wanxi, such a beautiful face!
Compared to this, Zhang Yan appeared very ordinary, far from being able to compare with Lin Wanxi.
But seeing Chen Xuan standing next to Lin Wanxi, his face turned cold with jealousy.
He felt Chen Xuan was wasting such a beautiful goddess!
"Aunt, how do you find my boyfriend? Way better than your son-in-law, right?"
Zhang Yan had a proud smile on her face, "Don't blame me for saying it, but Chen Xuan was engaged to me when we were kids, considered a reject I kicked away, and somehow my cousin picked up."
"Isn't that a bit... too pathetic, hahahaha."
