Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1949: Chapter 1524: Watching from the Sidelines (Part 2)

The only thing Bai Xiaosheng didn’t anticipate was the speed of Lin Chensheng’s transformation, which was a bit too fast.

Of course, it’s understandable, as Lin Chensheng has indeed been excessively stimulated on this day.

Lin Chensheng had just called out Hong Wu’s name when Hong Wu frowned and asked, ”Have you been drinking?”

This question was an instinctive concern.

Bai Xiaosheng coughed again.

Hong Wu’s eyebrows relaxed instantly and she said to Lin Chensheng blankly, ”Mr. Lin, what do you want from me?”

”Also, please call me Hong Wu, okay?” Hong Wu added, her voice devoid of any emotion.

”Don’t be like this, Xiaowu, I know I was wrong. Before... it was my blindness, I couldn’t see your goodness to me, but now, I... I know I was wrong. Can we go back to how things were before?” Lin Chensheng was eager to mend things, the more anxious he was, the clumsier his words became, coupled with his drinking making him rather incoherent.

The few business bosses behind Hong Wu also cast peculiar glances at Lin Chensheng.

”Mr. Lin, please don’t speak nonsense. There’s nothing between us anymore!”

Hong Wu’s delicate face turned cold and unfeeling, she even turned to leave.

Seeing this, Lin Chensheng hurried forward to block Hong Wu’s path.

Hong Wu was already the focus of attention, and as the commotion began, the curiosity of those around was stirred, sparking quiet discussion, pointing, and even causing some to actively gather around.

Lin Chensheng no longer cared about the gaze of the crowd, his mind solely focused on winning back Hong Wu.

Given his face-saving disposition, the moment he could publicly set aside his pride, there was already a hint of transformation.

Lin Chensheng moved closer, and Hong Wu retreated.

Bai Xiaosheng stepped forward just in time to stop Lin Chensheng, ”Mr. Lin, please be mindful of the occasion.”

This sentence completely ignited Lin Chensheng, who glared at Bai Xiaosheng angrily and shouted, ”What does this have to do with you! Get out of my way!”

This man who inexplicably won Hong Wu’s favor made Lin Chensheng burn with jealousy.

It was precisely Lin Chensheng’s roar that attracted more people’s attention.

”Lin Chensheng, what are you doing?!”

A sharp female voice called out.

It was Lin Chenyu, striding over with her group, anger flooding her eyes and brows.

In her view, Lin Chensheng’s actions were truly disgraceful, causing a complete loss of the Lin Family’s face!

Lin Chensheng glanced over blankly, but remained unmoved, continuing to block Hong Wu’s departure.

”Enough, Lin Chensheng, don’t you have any shame? You’ve made the Lin family’s face completely disappear!”

Another voice sounded, cold yet carrying authority.

Lin Chencheng approached with a face like cold ice, accompanied by many others.

In the face of Hong Wu’s rejection, Lin Chensheng could be obsessed, ignoring everything, in the face of Bai Xiaosheng he could be angry, indifferent.

But with Lin Chencheng and Lin Chenyu, two family elites speaking out and bringing along a crowd of Lin Family members pointing and discussing him.

Lin Chensheng couldn’t act like a breeze, ignoring it all.

By now, his alcohol buzz was wearing off.

”Chencheng, Chenyu, this is between Xiaowu and me...” Lin Chensheng muttered, still emphasizing this point.

”This is the Lin Family banquet, and there’s no room for your presumptuousness!” yelled Lin Chenyu.

Lin Chencheng narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of disdain, coldly stated, ”Lin Chensheng, do you understand that Miss Hong Wu has nothing to do with you! She is still an important guest of the Lin Family, and what you’ve done publicly is against the rules, disgraceful! Do I need to call your father to come and take you away in front of everyone? If Grandpa finds out, how disappointed would he be in you!”

Lin Chencheng’s words were like a knife piercing Lin Chensheng’s heart.

Lin Chensheng had already lost someone he liked today, and now even his family would be disappointed in him; what else did his life have.

Especially when Lin Chensheng had always been proud and eager to prove himself.

Lin Chensheng’s face turned deathly pale.

In the crowd, Xu Jiahao gestured to him, urging him not to speak anymore.

Hong Wu looked at Lin Chensheng, wanting to see how this man would choose.

Would he persist in not giving up in front of so many people, or would he succumb to the threats of the two Lin family elites?

To be honest, Hong Wu hoped for the former, as it would prove Lin Chensheng’s feelings for her were strong enough, but she was also afraid he’d do just that. If he did, it would mean Lin Chensheng would truly become a target at the Lin Family.

Hong Wu’s heart became conflicted, and she even began to worry about the difficult situation unfolding, stealing a glance at Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng had said he’d handle everything. Everything was going as he planned.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng remained incredibly composed, so Hong Wu now placed her hopes on this newly crowned ”big gentleman.”

Bai Xiaosheng was also waiting for Lin Chensheng to make a decision; he wanted to see whether this man could satisfy him in such a situation, whether he was worthy of his help.

Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Chensheng slightly lowered his eyes and, with a hoarse voice, said to Lin Chencheng and Lin Chenyu, ”Chencheng, Chenyu, I know my actions right now are indeed wrong!”

His tone and attitude were full of the intention of admitting his mistake.

Lin Chencheng and Lin Chenyu sneered, looking proudly at this Lin family failure.

Hong Wu felt a slight disappointment.

Bai Xiaosheng still watched Lin Chensheng, his keen vision capable of seeing the subtleties in expression and discerning Lin Chensheng’s true final decision.

”Just for your intentions, I’ll lend you a hand!” Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself with a smile.
