The Invincible Son-in-law

Chapter 901: Letting Bygones Be Bygones

In fact, putting Su Muchen in charge of this cultural tourism project is also a test of her abilities.

Of course, there isn't much to do in the early stages, but once the funds are in place, there will be more work related to river governance.

Su Muchen doesn't know much about water management, but as the deputy mayor and the person responsible for the project, she can naturally order the water bureau to come up with a plan.

At this moment, Su Muyang and Li Xue came over with wine glasses to toast.

"Brother-in-law, I was immature before. I apologize to you and hope you won't hold a grudge!"

Su Muyang appeared sincere, bowing slightly in respect.

Lin Hao's gaze flickered as he looked into Li Xue's eyes, sparking a hint of flame.

Li Xue clearly remembered her numerous passionate encounters with Lin Hao, her pretty face showing a hint of shyness.

"Brother-in-law, I offer you a toast!" Li Xue raised her glass, hoping to ease the panic in her heart.

Although she and Su Muyang were almost divorced, she was still his wife and couldn't help feeling a bit ashamed of the betrayal.

"Su Muyang, for our father's and uncle's sake, I can forgive and forget." Lin Hao said with a smile as he clinked glasses with the two.

Seeing Lin Hao had forgiven him, Su Muyang was overjoyed, thinking that he could now lean on Lin Hao, a big tree.

"Brother-in-law, I heard the new district project is about to start, do you know…"

He hadn't finished speaking when Lin Hao interrupted, "What? Are you interested too?"

"Yes, I also want a piece of the action," Su Muyang replied.

"To be frank, I wouldn't dare partner with someone like you." Lin Hao decisively rejected him.

He wouldn't deal with someone as unreliable as Su Muyang again or have much to do with him.

"Didn't you say you've forgiven me?" Su Muyang's face turned ashen, retorting in a low voice.

"I forgave you for the sake of the elders, but as for business, I'm not interested." Lin Hao replied plainly.

Su Dingzhang seemed to have been watching them, and hurriedly said, "Mayor Lin, that young man Su Muyang really was wrong before. I've scolded him thoroughly; I implore you to give him a chance."

"Uncle, I'm not a petty person, and I've already said I won't hold onto past grievances, but…"

Lin Hao furrowed his brows slightly, speaking sternly, "I won't partner with Su Muyang because I don't fall in the same place twice."

"Mayor Lin, I know it was Su Muyang's fault. If you have any demands, you can make them, and we'll certainly satisfy you."

Su Dingzhang intended for Lin Hao to ask, implying that the Su Family could offer money to satisfy him.

"I think uncle misunderstood me." Lin Hao shook his head.

Seeing this situation, Su Dingfang quickly interjected, "Lin Hao, for my sake, give Su Muyang a chance to see if there's potential for cooperation."

Lin Hao didn't answer Su Dingfang directly but looked at Su Dingzhang, smiling as he asked, "Uncle, if someone cheated you once in business, would you still do business with them?"

Su Dingzhang laughed awkwardly and said, "That depends, doesn't it? After all, we're relatives."

"It's precisely because we're relatives that it makes me feel even colder, don't you think?" Lin Hao remained unfazed.

"…" Su Dingzhang was at a loss for words.

"Uncle, didn't I already agree to give Su Muyu a spot in the new district real estate development project?" Lin Hao looked at Su Muyu, asking in return.

"Uh… Xiaoyu mentioned it, but…"

Su Dingzhang wanted to say that Su Muyu hadn't handed over the whole project, only giving a portion of the shares to the group.

But he was concerned that mentioning it would anger Su Muyu, and the group might not get any benefits then.

Originally, he wanted to promote his son, but unexpectedly, Su Muyang, the fool, wanted to grab Lin Hao's handle to control him.

For someone like Lin Hao who is within the system, what's most terrifying is leaving a handle for others, and naturally, he detested this deeply.

Most frustrating is Lin Hao's stubbornness, as he wouldn't give Su Muyang any more chances.

Upon hearing herself mentioned, Su Muyu walked over with a glass, smiling as she asked, "Dad, I've already aligned with brother-in-law regarding the new district real estate project, you can rest assured."

Su Dingzhang knew his daughter's wings were grown, and she was now beyond his control.

If Huamao Group removed her, she could open her own company with Lin Hao's assistance the very next day, leaving nothing for Huamao Group.

"Xiaoyu, I'll leave the new district real estate project entirely to you." Su Dingzhang was forced to relinquish authority to Su Muyu.

"Rest assured, Dad, I'll manage the real estate project well." Su Muyu responded with a smile.

Seeing that his dad had once again excluded him, Su Muyang felt so frustrated that he was on the verge of spitting blood, wishing he could slap Lin Hao.

But now he dared not touch Lin Hao, leaving him awkwardly standing in place, like a complete fool.

Seeing that Lin Hao wouldn't give Su Muyang a chance, both Su Dingfang and Su Dingzhang felt stifled but could say nothing.

"Brother-in-law, I offer you a toast. We're counting on you for the new district project." Su Muyu raised a glass invitingly.

"The new district's land demolition is facing funding issues, as you're aware, and it might take a while."

Lin Hao had already communicated with her, only revealing this to Su Dingzhang.

"Brother-in-law, we're not in a rush; after all, the real estate project can't be completed overnight."

Su Muyu happily clinked glasses with him, a knowing smile shared between them.

Seeing his daughter had already partnered with Lin Hao, Su Dingzhang felt delighted, drinking freely with Su Dingfang.

Despite Peng Yunyan's attempts to persuade, Su Dingfang was still coaxed into getting drunk by his elder brother and sister-in-law.

…

Su Family Villa.

Lin Hao assisted Su Dingfang upstairs, the old man still insisting he wasn't drunk.

Peng Yunyan, as his wife, naturally followed closely, helping carry Su Dingfang into the master bedroom.

Speaking of the oversized master bedroom, Lin Hao had engaged in quite a bit of fun here.

After placing Su Dingfang on the bed, he cooperated with Peng Yunyan to remove the old man's coat and shoes, tucking him in with the blanket.

However, seeing his mother-in-law in a black evening dress tonight, Lin Hao felt an indescribable excitement.

While they helped Su Dingfang undress, he deliberately touched Peng Yunyan's hand and chest, causing the mature woman to blush and act coy.

Indeed, flirting with his mother-in-law in front of his father-in-law was a huge thrill for Lin Hao, who was tempted to overpower Peng Yunyan.

Peng Yunyan naturally wanted to be with him too, but given her husband's presence, she thought it best to restrain herself a bit.
