Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1381: Small Business

Lin Chen was fuming after hearing Anna’s complaint, ”If I hadn’t dodged quickly just now, you’d have kicked me to the ground.”

Anna giggled, ”I knew you’d dodge; otherwise, I wouldn’t have kicked.”

”Last time, neither my sister nor I were a match for you, so I had to strike first.” Anna grinned mischievously.

What a preemptive strike; nearly got me crippled. Lin Chen was speechless for a moment.

”Just wait, once I recover, I’ll punish you properly.” With that, Lin Chen mustered his strength and seamlessly swapped positions with Anna, skillfully undoing the buttons on her clothes.

With a flick, Lin Chen turned off the light and smirked coldly, ”Didn’t you just say I was incapable? This time, I’ll show you what I’m made of.”

Anna felt something pressing against her, and her heart tightened. Damn it, this guy has really recovered.

Once Lin Chen regained his vigor, Anna was in trouble.

This relentless battle throughout the night finally made Anna realize how formidable her man truly was.

Anna no longer had her earlier dominance. At this moment, she nestled tightly in Lin Chen’s arms like a little girl.

Her smooth hands caressed Lin Chen’s chest, ”Lin Chen, are you really going to participate in the World Martial Arts Tournament?”

”Yes, maybe there will be news about Xiao Hua there,” Lin Chen replied.

”I don’t know how long it will be this time before you come back,” Anna said wistfully.

”Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon, and I’ll stay longer this time,” Lin Chen comforted her while stroking Anna’s silky hair.

As dawn broke, a ray of sunlight streamed through the window, and the two reluctantly got out of bed.

Today was an incredibly important day for Lin Chen.

In the ancient and elegant Wanfu Restaurant in the Capital City, the place was exceptionally lively today.

This Wanfu Restaurant has a history of several hundred years in the Capital City; it was a place where only royals and nobles could enter during the Qing Dynasty.

Though it experienced turmoil later, the Wanfu Restaurant still thrived.

The reason it stands strong is because of the powerful family behind it—the Long family.

The Long family was once an obscure minor family in China until the remarkable figure, Long Tianxiao, emerged and propelled the family to greatness.

Legend has it that Long Tianxiao protected the feudal dynasty for centuries, and as soon as he passed away, the dynasty, which had ruled China for hundreds of years, collapsed.

Though the Long family no longer possesses its former glory, it still has deep roots. The Wanfu Restaurant is typically not open to the public, only hosting extremely distinguished guests.

Yet today, because of Lin Chen, the Wanfu Restaurant opened its doors in a grand manner.

This event nearly created a sensation throughout the entire capital.

There’s a saying in the Capital City: one is only considered part of the high society after having dined at the Wanfu Restaurant.

Today, this legendary restaurant was decorated for Lin Chen, exclusively for the Lin family, which is almost unthinkable.

The Wanfu Restaurant was packed with guests today, with nearly the entire nobility circle of the Capital City in attendance.

With the crisp sound of a bronze gong, the protagonist of this banquet, Lin Chen, stepped out in a tailored suit.

This was Lin Chen’s first formal appearance in front of everyone; no one expected that his emergence would lead to a reshuffling of the Capital City’s noble circle.

”Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our Lin family’s banquet. Decades ago, our family was hit by a catastrophe and nearly wiped out, disappearing from everyone’s sight. Today, I, Lin Chen, formally announce the return of the Lin family.”

”Clap, clap, clap!” A round of enthusiastic applause rang out from the crowd.

Of course, many of these claps were insincere. The family hierarchy in the Capital City was already set, and the return of the Lin family would undoubtedly disrupt this order, which many people were not happy to see.

At that moment, a mocking laugh suddenly rang out, ”Lin Chen, what business are you involved in? What industries do you have?”

The crowd turned their gaze to see a young man dressed in international designer clothes, looking at Lin Chen with disdain.

This person was Zhang Lan, one of the Capital City’s infamous scoundrels, similar in age to Lin Chen. Therefore, he was naturally displeased with this suddenly emerging figure.

Everyone perked up their ears, eager to hear what Lin Chen truly had to his name.

However, Lin Chen merely smiled indifferently, ”I just run a small business, nothing impressive.”

Pfft!

Zhang Lan sneered, ”Small business, everyone here has assets over billions. Do you think a few million makes you a prestigious family in the Capital City?”

Listening to Zhang Lan, many snickered.

Clearly, these people saw Lin Chen as a country bumpkin.

Lin Chen did have a name in the Capital City’s circles for his extraordinary martial prowess, but a family’s prosperity couldn’t rely solely on a couple of strong fighters.

The family elders who were wary of Lin Chen all breathed a sigh of relief; the less competent Lin Chen was, the more relieved they felt.

At that moment, the door opened, and a beautiful woman in a red cheongsam walked in.

As soon as she entered the hall, she captured everyone’s attention, especially Zhang Lan, whose eyes nearly popped out.

The woman was none other than Xue Ying, the Capital City’s most beautiful woman who was known for her looks, intelligence, and wealth.

In terms of beauty, Xue Ying was unmatched.

As for intelligence, she had turned the Star Group into a Fortune 500 company in just a few years.

Regarding wealth, the Star Group’s market value had reached several billion, making it a true business empire.

This entire feat was achieved by this legendary woman.

Zhang Lan quickly approached, ”Miss Xue, why would you attend such a small family’s banquet?”

Xue Ying glanced coldly at Zhang Lan and said flatly, ”Why shouldn’t I? This concerns the Star Group.”

”The Star Group?” Her words left the crowd in shock.

At this moment, Xue Ying smiled charmingly and walked up to Lin Chen, ”Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to formally introduce you to the chairman and founder of the Star Group, Mr. Lin Chen.”

Pfft!

Zhang Lan almost spat out the sip of red wine he had just taken.

How could it be that the Lin Chen he had just ridiculed was the chairman of the Star Group?

Up till now, Xue Ying had always been the face of the Star Group at any large event, so many people naturally assumed that the group belonged to Xue Ying.

Few noticed there was a chairman behind the Star Group.

Hearing Xue Ying’s words, the other family heads present were left dumbfounded.

Just moments ago, Lin Chen claimed he ran a small business. Little did anyone expect that this ”small business” he’d mentioned was actually worth billions.
