The women next door heard the commotion and thought Lin Hao had a falling out, so they rushed in.
To their surprise, Lin Hao was nowhere to be seen in the tea room, and they only saw Su Dingzhang picking up various tea sets from the table and throwing them at Su Muyang.
Clang clang clang...
Cups and tea sets shattered on the floor, scaring Su Muyang into dodging and complaining bitterly.
"Old man, what's going on? Don't get physical!" Yang Ping hurriedly stepped forward to pull Su Dingzhang back.
The Su Family Sisters and Zhang Yutong were bewildered by the scene before them.
"Uncle, where's Lin Hao? Did he leave?" Su Muyun asked, looking around.
"Lin Hao was driven away by this bastard," Su Dingzhang said angrily, hurling the teapot furiously.
Bang!
The teapot hit the ground, causing hot water to splash everywhere, and everyone backed away in fright.
"Uncle, what exactly happened?" Su Muchen's face darkened, knowing they had angered Lin Hao away, and he asked sternly.
"See for yourselves." Su Dingzhang held up his phone and shouted, "Su Muyang, that idiot, was... recording!"
"What? Recording?" Su Muchen and Su Muyun's expressions changed dramatically.
The two of them clearly saw the true colors of their uncle's family, and left angrily.
"Su Muyang, why were you recording?" Yang Ping turned to her son and shouted.
"What's wrong with recording? I was just afraid he wouldn't keep his word!" Su Muyang even argued.
"How can you be so stupid?" Yang Ping was enraged by her foolish son.
Su Dingzhang knew about the last incident, and it was clear that Su Muyang still held a grudge against Lin Hao, intending to catch something on him to control him better.
However, using a phone to record was too amateurish to escape the notice of someone as smart as Lin Hao.
Even though Su Muyang had hidden his phone behind a tea canister, Lin Hao still discovered it.
Lin Hao wasn't stupid and could easily see through Su Muyang's little trick and his ulterior motives.
In truth, Lin Hao had initially planned to give Su Muyang forty percent of the shares for the sake of face, but now it seemed utterly unnecessary.
Cleverness led to folly!
Su Muyang thought he was clever, but he was foolish as a pig.
In fact, before, Su Muyu also tried to set Lin Hao up. Now that Su Muyang shared her thinking, it only indicated one thing—Su Dingzhang must be using similar means to hold some evidence against Su Dingfang.
Even with his own brother, Su Dingzhang used such tactics, so it was no surprise that his children learned this trick to control Lin Hao.
Unfortunately, Lin Hao always had his guard up against them and was equipped with anti-surveillance and eavesdropping devices. How could he be easily tricked?
Lin Hao didn't return to the Su Family but went back to his own home, which was a marital house his father had prepared for him, considered a premarital asset.
So when Su Muyun divorced him, she also let Lin Hao have this house. Their salaries and bonuses were managed individually, with little to divide.
Returning here to rest, Lin Hao was also exerting pressure on the Su Family Sisters, warning them not to get involved with Uncle's family.
Because with just one careless move, they could fall into their trap, and then they would be at their mercy.
As Lin Hao opened the door, his phone rang.
"Lin Hao, where did you run off to?" came Su Muyun's voice.
"I went home," Lin Hao replied in a deep voice.
"Home? We're home, and we didn't see you," asked Su Muyun.
"I went back to the previous house," Lin Hao answered.
Su Muyun then remembered their once shared cozy little home, where they had passed a beautiful time together.
"I heard Su Muyang was recording you? What did you talk about? Are they bribing you? Did you take their money?" Su Muyun asked a string of questions, clearly worried about Lin Hao.
"They did try to bribe me, but I refused." Lin Hao replied coldly.
"Lin Hao, I'm really sorry. I didn't know Uncle and his family were like this..." Su Muyun now regretted deeply.
After all, she was the one who brought Lin Hao over, and Uncle's family setting him up meant that if Lin Hao was caught in their trap, future days would be hard.
"You sisters should stay away from them in the future, be careful not to fall into their traps." Lin Hao kindly reminded.
"Don't worry, we won't associate with them anymore." Su Muyun felt it was indeed wise to keep a distance from such relatives.
Su Muchen chimed in, "Brother-in-law, don't be mad. This was our fault, and we indeed didn't know they were doing these sneaky things behind our backs."
"I believe you won't harm me, but there's no doubt that Su Muyang wanted to catch me in a trap; let them tend to themselves." Lin Hao's voice was as cold as frost.
"Lin Hao, just come back, we sisters will keep you company tonight," offered Su Muyun gently.
"No need, I'll stay here tonight," Lin Hao said and hung up.
Although it had been a while since he returned, the cleaning lady still came weekly to tidy up, so the house remained very clean and orderly.
Lin Hao entered the master bedroom, put down his briefcase, and went straight to take a shower.
After coming out, he saw numerous missed calls from Su Dingzhang and the Su Family Sisters, but he didn't plan to return any calls and pretended he hadn't seen them.
Su Dingzhang did not expect that what was initially a good thing was messed up by his foolish son.
From the bottom of his heart, he still hoped his son could inherit the family business and lead Huamao Group to greater heights, but now that this good-for-nothing has completely offended Lin Hao, the future for the Group may not be smooth.
Previously, there was his own brother Su Dingfang to help him, but now this brother has gone to recuperate, and phone calls would require him to reach Lin Hao himself.
Now that the line with Lin Hao is cut off, and they've also offended the Su Family Sisters, it may be very difficult for the Su Family to regain their former glory.
After washing up, Lin Hao began reviewing the opinions he collected today and eventually fell asleep groggily.
...
Early in the morning, Lin Hao was woken up by a phone ringing.
"Hello, brother-in-law, are you awake?" Su Muyu's voice came through.
"Xiaoyu, what's up?" Lin Hao replied groggily.
"Dad asked me to attend the group's meeting first thing in the morning, and from his tone, it seems he wants me to continue to run the group. What's going on?" Su Muyu asked.
"They want you to return? Looks like Uncle is not entirely foolish!" Lin Hao suddenly became much more alert.
"Honestly, did you pressure Dad to let me return to the group?" Su Muyu asked.
"Sort of," Lin Hao did not mention what happened last night.
