Chapter 154: Are You Also Here to See Old Master Lin?

"Why would Elder Lin call you?"
"Could it be that this matter has already reached Elder Lin's ears?"
"We're finished, we're completely finished. Finding your number this quickly, he must be calling to settle accounts!"
Su Weimin's eyes bulged in terror. His legs immediately turned to jelly with fear, and he collapsed to the floor with a thud.
Gao Yulan gasped sharply. Her already pale face looked incomparably horrified, and her tongue felt almost knotted in her mouth.
"What on earth are the two of you imagining? Elder Lin specifically called to invite me out for a meal and a proper chat," Ye Tianlin explained leisurely.
Su Weimin trembled all over and said, "What kind of situation is this, and you're still here bragging, stubbornly saving face? Is there any need to force it?"
Gao Yulan snapped back to her senses and said with extreme difficulty, "With a matter this huge, how could Elder Lin possibly take the initiative to invite you to dinner? Isn't that complete fantasy?"
"How long has it even been since it happened? How could Elder Lin possibly find out this fast? Besides, I've always had a pretty good relationship with Elder Lin. Isn't it completely normal to have a meal together?" Ye Tianlin said calmly.
Su Weimin wore a look of utter despair as he lay limply on the floor, closing his eyes in agony, and wailed, "Can you please stop bragging? Even if you're just trying to comfort us, there's no need to say things like this. My life is so hard!"
Seeing Su Weimin's actions and expression, Ye Tianlin couldn't help but offer a wry smile. He gestured with his hand and said, "Dad, if you truly don't believe me, then come with me to dinner and see Elder Lin yourself!"

"I... I can't afford to lose that kind of face. To have a son-in-law like you, I honestly wish I were dead." Su Weimin buried his face in his hands, his body curled up on the floor as if he desperately wished to dig a hole and crawl into it.
Ye Tianlin sighed. He had no choice but to leave the couple behind at the Clear Water Bay villa, picked up his car keys, and headed straight out to the appointment.
After about half an hour's drive, he arrived at a high-end Chinese restaurant.
Ye Tianlin parked the car steadily, and just as he pushed open the door and stepped out, a camouflage-painted jeep pulled up smoothly right beside him.
The car door swung open, and a familiar figure stepped out with brisk efficiency. Their eyes locked instantly.
"Why is it you?" Feng Sihai asked, a look of surprise crossing his face.
The corners of Ye Tianlin's mouth curved upward. He leisurely slipped his car keys into his pocket and smiled, "Why couldn't it be me? There's no rule saying I'm not allowed to come to this restaurant."
"I really have to admire you. What time is it, and you still have the mood to come out for a meal, instead of seriously thinking about how to solve your problems?" Feng Sihai touched his chest, still feeling a dull ache lingering there, but considering Ye Tianlin's various actions had already driven him to a desperate situation of his own making, he didn't bother to argue too much.
"It seems like there never was any problem to begin with?" Ye Tianlin shrugged.
Feng Sihai said, "I personally admire your courage. It's just a pity that you are ultimately far too reckless. Actually, you shouldn't have acted that way back then, because it does you no good whatsoever. You've ruined yourself!"
"You had a physical altercation with me earlier, aren't you harboring any resentment?" Ye Tianlin re-examined Feng Sihai for a few moments.

Feng Sihai adjusted his collar and said, "I'm not that petty. Besides, I was in a very difficult position to begin with, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered doing his dirty work."
"As for a spoiled brat like Lin Kaiyang, I'd be more than happy to see him beaten half to death. He's an absolute disgrace to Elder Lin!"
"Still, since things have reached this point, you'd better think about yourself first. I'm going in to see Elder Lin, I don't have time to chat with you anymore!"
With that, Feng Sihai made to enter the restaurant first.
Ye Tianlin reached out to stop him and smiled meaningfully, "Could it be that you're here to see Elder Lin as well?"
Feng Sihai looked surprised and said, "Could it be that you already caught wind of the news in advance and knew Elder Lin would be dining here today? Are you planning to come and apologize to Elder Lin?"
Mid-sentence, a flash of reluctance showed in Feng Sihai's eyes, and he quickly added, "Elder Lin isn't someone just anyone can see. Since that's the case, I'll take you in with me. Consider it doing you a favor!"
