Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1964: Chapter 1531: How Is This Possible!

Lin Tianyi sent off Bai Xiaosheng and returned to his study to sit quietly, bit by bit recalling the entire conversation and confrontation he just had with Bai Xiaosheng.

Every word Bai Xiaosheng said, every expression, he carefully reviewed.

This was his personal habit, a ”review” of his opponent.

After thinking for half an hour, a flash of light flickered in Lin Tianyi’s eyes as he muttered to himself, ”He was too calm!”

This Bai Xiaosheng was really too calm!

So calm that it didn’t seem like his first time discussing these topics with me!

So calm, as if every word and deed of mine was within his expectations!

So calm, like he had already prepared various measures to deal with me!

Lin Tianyi had reason to believe that Bai Xiaosheng definitely hadn’t just arrived in Xianggang; he not only had been here for a while, but also had conducted meticulous investigations targeting himself!

Maybe, he even made certain preparations before coming to my house!

Thinking of these, Lin Tianyi couldn’t help but feel a chill.

This opponent is very frightening!

Looks like I’ve been too complacent with my smooth sailing over the years in Xianggang, leading to a decline in my vigilance and response capabilities in comfort.

Unexpectedly, I didn’t notice right away!

”Know your enemy, know yourself, and you shall not fear a hundred battles! He has a deep understanding of me, yet my understanding of him exists only on some paper, some documents, which is unacceptable!” Lin Tianyi frowned, muttering to himself.

Subsequently, Lin Tianyi picked up his phone and searched through the large contacts list, finding a name - Lin Chensheng.

Bai Xiaosheng mentioned he knew Lin Chensheng and even got along well. While welcoming Bai Xiaosheng, Lin Tianyi noticed Lin Chensheng’s attitude towards Bai Xiaosheng didn’t seem like he knew his identity beforehand, but rather gave off a vibe of friends meeting.

This indicates that Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Chensheng had private interactions where identities weren’t revealed, and it wasn’t just a first-time meeting, but multiple times.

Their relationship is likely not bad!

Being who Lin Tianyi is, he quickly deduced this point.

So now, he needs to study Bai Xiaosheng in reverse from Lin Chensheng’s perspective!

A master makes a move, often reverse-engineering from the opponent’s game can lead to different discoveries.

Lin Tianyi thought the same.

However, when he made the call, the busy tone continued until the prompt ”no answer” sounded.

Lin Tianyi looked at his phone strangely.

My call, and Lin Chensheng dares not to answer?

That kid doesn’t have the guts!

Could it be he’s working or in a meeting?

But subsequently, Lin Tianyi negated his judgment.

No, Lin Chensheng voluntarily left the family business and should not have any current arrangement.

Of course, it might be possible.

After all, if it’s just a trivial position, there are management personnel to dispatch, and they won’t bother me, especially recently, I am busy.

Lin Tianyi directly called the relevant person in charge to inquire about the arrangements for Lin Chensheng.

Learning that Lin Chensheng had been idle without any arrangement, Lin Tianyi hung up the phone with doubts.

Five minutes later, Lin Tianyi dialed Lin Chensheng’s number again, but still, no one answered.

Lin Tianyi decided to put it aside for now, recalling Bai Xiaosheng mentioning having interacted with the Hong family, he then called the Hong family head, his old friend Hong Chengtian.

This time, the phone hadn’t rung many times when it was picked up.

”Hello, Lin my brother, what’s up with your call?” A cheerful voice came from the other end.

Lin Tianyi naturally recognized it as the voice of Hong Family Head, Hong Chengtian.

”Brother Hong, are you busy? I have something to ask you.” Lin Tianyi laughed.

In front of their people, they speak elegantly and courteously.

But when facing people of the same level and weight, their conversations are down-to-earth, calling each other brothers, no different from ordinary people.

”You want to ask me something?” Hong Chengtian sounded slightly confused but then laughed candidly, ”Go ahead, I have the time to chat with you for a bit.”

Hearing this tone, Lin Tianyi felt reassured.

The Lin family and Hong family have decades of friendship, and he has been close with Hong Chengtian since childhood, as close as brothers.

What Bai Xiaosheng meant by wanting to find a breakthrough from the Hong family was wishful thinking.

Bai Xiaosheng’s words were just a small trick of creating confusion.

Feeling relaxed, Lin Tianyi laughed and told Hong Chengtian over the phone, ”I mentioned him to you, that Bai Xiaosheng, yes, the new executive president of Greater China Region from the mainland Zhenbei Group, came to visit me today.”

Lin Tianyi briefly told Hong Chengtian about Bai Xiaosheng’s visit and the bargaining that took place.

After all, Hong Chengtian is his steadfast ally, co-leading the business alliance with him, and even dealing with Tianyu International was done together.

Therefore, Lin Tianyi needed to inform Hong Chengtian of the situation.

Later, if the Lin family successfully boards Bai Xiaosheng’s ”big ship,” the Hong family will also be brought along by Lin Tianyi.

Having a reliable ally makes everything easier, at least increasing their speaking weight on the other side.

”I see, so he really came.” Over the phone, Hong Chengtian showed great interest in Bai Xiaosheng.

Lin Tianyi contemplated briefly and laughed in the phone, ”Brother Hong, you know, this Bai Xiaosheng is no simple character, he verbally sparred with me openly and covertly, even claiming that he had already been in contact with you, as if you two had even reached some results.”

”Nonsense!”

On the other end, facing Lin Tianyi’s probing inquiries, Hong Chengtian responded straightforwardly.

The word ”nonsense” was music to Lin Tianyi’s ears.

”When have I ever seen this Bai Xiaosheng, nor had any contact with him, not even a bit! Cooperation? Impossible!” Hong Chengtian almost beat his chest across the phone to assure Lin Tianyi.

Feeling more secure listening, Lin Tianyi laughed, ”I just thought it was Bai Xiaosheng putting on a show, talking as if it were true. I immediately countered, Brother Hong would never. The Lin and Hong families have decades of friendship, what would he understand!”

Hong Chengtian naturally agreed.

Subsequently, Lin Tianyi and Hong Chengtian chatted for another seven or eight minutes on the phone before hanging up.

After hanging up, Lin Tianyi felt more confident.

”Mr. Bai, you try to deceive me? Ha, you failed this time! Tonight, I can invite Brother Hong over personally to meet him, let’s see what he says!” Lin Tianyi smirked, muttering to himself.

Thinking he could take the initiative at the evening banquet, Lin Tianyi was also very happy.

After settling this, Lin Tianyi pondered whether to make another call to Lin Chensheng.

Just then, his study door was knocked on urgently.

”Come in.” Lin Tianyi frowned and called out.

Judging by the knocking, it seemed urgent.

What’s so urgent?

Entering was not the Lin family’s butler but Lin Chencheng.

Usually, Lin Chencheng also helped Lin Tianyi manage various affairs, naturally having the authority to report directly.

”What’s the matter, Chencheng?” Lin Tianyi saw that Lin Chencheng’s expression wasn’t quite right, even a bit flustered, and immediately frowned.

”Uncle Lin... no, Family Head, look, look at this!” In panic, Lin Chencheng even got the address wrong and stuttered.

He rushed to Lin Tianyi in a few strides, holding a tablet computer in his hands.

Lin Tianyi looked in confusion, under Lin Chencheng’s gesture, and his eyes fixed, widening, even snatching that tablet computer.

”How is this possible!”
