Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1186: Chapter 1185: Using Lu Xiaobu’s Method

Lin Feng, regardless of others’ thoughts, arrived at the family meeting room, sat quietly, and waited for everyone to come.

Soon, his father, Lin Tiankai, arrived, took the main seat, glanced at him, and said nothing.

Lin Feng glanced back, also saying nothing.

He knew his father’s personality, and this time he definitely wouldn’t help him.

The fact that he didn’t speak was already a sign of care toward him.

If he succeeded this time, everything would be negotiable; if not, his father would arrange the path his father had prepared for him!

Sitting here, he couldn’t help but be filled with countless thoughts.

Truthfully, he never imagined his path would be like this; ever since he met Lu Xiaobu, everything suddenly changed!

He appeared to have overwhelming power, but in reality, he was just like any ordinary person, unwilling to obediently follow the path his father had arranged for him.

Marrying a woman he didn’t know, for the sake of various dimensions, enduring all kinds of grievances, eventually becoming the family head, and having to exhaust his efforts to negotiate with all sides.

That’s not what he wanted.

But, at that time, he had no choice but to be like everyone else, either before or after being arranged for a blind date, trying to spread his bad reputation as widely as possible.

This is why he appeared so foolish initially; he merely wanted to use Lu Xiaobu at that time as a pawn to create a bad impression so that the woman’s side would dislike him, annul the engagement, and then he would proceed step by step.

However, later on, muddle-headedly, he found himself confronting Lu Xiaobu, more and more realizing that Lu Xiaobu was indeed talented, not just a pawn, but a manipulator who could change his fate!

Therefore, he thought to fight, to seize, to resist.

And today, he was finally going to reveal his hand!

Lu Xiaobu, oh Lu Xiaobu, I decided to use your method to enjoy this moment today!

Soon, his second uncle, Lin Tianshen, came in.

Upon entering, Lin Tianshen looked towards Lin Feng’s father, his elder brother—Lin Tiankai, only to see Lin Tiankai sitting with his eyes straightforward, seemingly unaware of anything, or clueless.

He understood Lin Tiankai’s personality well; with this demeanor, it was evident he wouldn’t act unless it was absolutely necessary!

Subsequently, Lin Tianshen’s gaze fell upon Lin Feng.

Instantly, sparks flew, and the entire atmosphere was filled with the smell of gunpowder!

Lin Tianshen took two steps forward, purposely circling a loop around Lin Feng, and whispered: ”Xiaofeng, you’re still too impatient!”

”No, I think it’s Second Uncle who’s getting old!” Lin Feng remained seated, responding with a calm statement in direct confrontation.

”Then let’s wait and see.” Lin Tianshen said no more, circled past Lin Tiankai, and sat at the first position on the right.

Subsequently, Lin Feng’s third uncle, Lin Tianfu, also arrived. He glanced at the atmosphere inside the room, sighed, said nothing, and sat at the first position on Lin Tiankai’s left.

He was a martial man, neither understanding nor wanting to understand these affairs; he came merely to make up the numbers!

Thus, the three chiefs of the Lin Family’s previous generation were all present.

Gradually, more people came in, sitting separately.

Some were from Lin Feng’s grandfather’s generation, and others were of the uncle’s generation.

They all had complex expressions, knowing well that today was a convoluted power struggle!

Though today may not involve bloody storms, the level of danger within was certainly no less than the bright blades before!

However, oddly, members of Lin Feng’s generation were few, apart from two others besides Lin Feng.

Originally, there were more.

But, Lin Feng had eliminated them one by one!

Of course, eliminating didn’t mean killing them; aside from the two he had killed with Lu Xiaobu’s help, the rest were transferred, taking positions elsewhere, not participating in family affairs!

After all, even if Lin Feng wielded force against his own, no one could protect him!

Lin Tiankai looked at those present, found nearly everyone was here, and prepared to begin.

And suddenly.

”The Old Master arrives!” A steward called out loudly.

Upon hearing this remark, everyone stood up, faces full of shock.

Why did the Old Master come?!

In many people’s hearts came a sudden realization that today’s matter couldn’t possibly end simply!

”Respectfully welcome the Old Master!”

”Respectfully welcome the elder brother!”

”Respectfully welcome the elder uncle!”

”Respectfully welcome the grandfather!”

”Respectfully welcome the father!”

As an elderly man with a worn face yet a relatively robust physique walked in, everyone stood up, calling various titles respectfully.

”Mm, sit down, please. I just came to take a look.” The old master walked in, surveyed the room, and said.

Though his gaze was cloudy, amid opening and closing, it unintentionally emitted dazzling glimmers.

Clearly, the Old Master wasn’t yet senile!

His gaze lingered momentarily on Lin Feng, uncertain whether it was a warning or something else.

The Old Master sat at a position behind Lin Tiankai.

This position was meant for listening, but the moment the Old Master sat, it became the central seat among the main positions.

”Tiankai, start.” The Old Master slightly closed his eyes, appearing as though resting with eyes shut.

”Yes, father!” Lin Tiankai responded, then looked at everyone, finally at Lin Feng: ”Begin! Lin Feng, you called this meeting, speak first!”

”Warning you, family meetings aren’t a joke; if you mess around, even as my son, I won’t show mercy!”

Lin Tiankai noticed the Old Master’s arrival, feeling differently than earlier, thus voiced a warning to Lin Feng to mind his manners!

”Yes, father!” Lin Feng bowed to the Old Master, then to Lin Tiankai, before looking at everyone.

”Dear grandfathers, uncles, elder uncles! I’m here today on behalf of two things, first, to strip the criminal Lin Tianshen from all positions.”

Once these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!

Although they had guessed Lin Feng’s intention earlier, they didn’t foresee that Lin Feng would dare to say this even with the Old Master present?!

The Old Master’s presence and absence here made a world of difference!

With him here, it implied that today’s decision was final, not subject to random alteration!

Given the circumstances, wouldn’t Lin Tianshen fight back fiercely?!

Lin Feng was determined to openly become adversaries with Lin Tianshen!

Lin Tiankai glanced at Lin Feng but said nothing.

The Old Master’s eyes opened slightly, but he didn’t say anything, tacitly approving the occurrence.

Lin Tianshen slammed the table violently: ”Xiaofeng, eating can be messy, but speaking shouldn’t be! Some matters aren’t for you to decide!”

He grew agitated, losing the former calmness!

This Lin Feng, having frequent interactions with Lu Xiaobu, turned into a madman too?!

Wanting to strip him of all positions?! Was this to push him out of the Lin Family?!
