Without such a big tree to lean on, it was impossible for him to survive in the city with his little family background.

Countless thoughts sprouted in his mind, and Jiang Yuncai's expression turned ugly to the extreme. Unfortunately, he had no other choice.

In this final round, although he had indeed prepared something, it was still worth a lot more than Dai Kui's black sandalwood Buddha statue. If he took it out now, not only would it not be of any use, it would even help Jiang Yunmao and give him more confidence.

Jiang Yun was momentarily at a loss as to what to do.

On the stage, Jiang Yunmao was still continuing his speech. He was almost going to directly say that he would be in charge of the Jiang Clan in the future. Old Lady Jiang's expression also gradually darkened, and a hint of coldness could be seen in her eyes.

Lin Jing had been watching from the side and knew that the time had come. He had only been able to give a slight blow to Jiang Yunmao to gain more time and opportunity. He hadn't expected that Jiang Yunmao would deliver himself to his doorstep and completely narrow the path.

Jiang Qianxue saw Lin Jing suddenly make a move and her heart skipped a beat. She immediately reached out to grab his arm and said, "Lin Jing, what do you want? Don't do anything reckless and leave this matter to grandmother. We just need to calmly wait and see …"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Don't worry." Lin Qing turned around with a confident smile and said to Jiang Qianxue in a low voice. He gently pushed her hand away, turned around, and walked up the stage with firm steps.

At this moment, Jiang Yuncai and Liu Fen finally reacted. It was already too late to stop Lin Jing.

Lin Jing went up on stage. Now that the situation was so tense, the two didn't even dare to breathe. They could only stare at him with wide eyes.

Jiang Yunmao was in the middle of speaking out his declaration when he suddenly saw a limping figure walk up to his side. His brows slightly furrowed as he turned around to see Lin Jing staring at him.

"What are you doing up here?"

"I was listening to uncle's lofty ambitions, and I couldn't help but come up to him." Lin Jing said with a smile.

When Old Lady Jiang saw Lin Jing and heard his words, her eyes also turned slightly cold. She had previously decided on this cheap grandson-in-law, and he did help her earn what she wanted. However, everything from that day on, was not a profitable business anymore.

After that initial period of time, the outsiders had already figured out the purpose of her maneuver, and the original purpose had slowly disappeared. It wasn't as if she hadn't thought about it, to choose a more suitable grandson-in-law. But although Lin Jing didn't have much ability, he hadn't made a big mistake these past few years.

Without a suitable reason, she couldn't force him out. Moreover, this guy seemed to have changed. His continuous performance was also very good, causing her to hesitate.

What was he doing now? Did he wear the same pants as Jiang Yunmao?

Old Third's family usually treated Lin Jing very well. Therefore, it was normal for resentment to arise in her heart. Even if he cooperated with Jiang Yunmao, it would at least be a matter of his own family matters.

Elder Dong had a faint smile on his face. What he was thinking in his heart was another matter. This cripple whom everyone looked down upon was someone who had taken out Tang Yin's real work!

From the first time they met, Old Man Dong's attitude towards Lin Jing had been unbelievably good. If it was just to win him over, then the olive branch was simply too precious. Although Lin Jing's performance later on caused his eyes to light up, his original thoughts hadn't changed.

Elder Dong was a businessman. No matter what he invested in, it would always depend on the returns. He had spared no effort in helping Lin Jing with so many things. Naturally, it wasn't only because he had good relations with Lin Jing, but because he had always believed that there would definitely be even more treasures in Lin Jing's hands.

There were many young people with future prospects, abilities, and ideas on the streets. How many of them were truly able to break out of their predicament and make a name for themselves?

Take Elder Dong for example. Back then, there were many people who went into the sea with him, and even left him far behind from the start. However, to this day, he was the only one who could remain standing.

Basic strength!

To have such a high status in the Cloud Embroidery Workshop, he naturally had the shadow of an ancestor hiding inside. From his point of view, those who were able to get lucky for a short period of time would only be able to appear briefly.

In his heart, he was convinced that there was a mysterious and powerful family supporting Lin Jing. He had helped Lin Jing by throwing an olive branch to Lin Jing and also showing goodwill. This was Old Dong's basic attitude to all the things he had done for Lin Jing.

Thus, Lin Jing had taken the initiative to walk up to the stage from behind the scenes. Old man Dong was very curious as to what kind of trump card Lin Jing had in mind.

Unlike Old Man Dong, Jiang Yunmao didn't care about Lin Jing at all. In his opinion, this was just an old lady's bargaining chip. Once it was used, it would be useless and he would immediately kick her far away.

Who was he?

He had a yearning in his heart, and now he had unknowingly come up?

Jiang Yunmao even felt that this was an insult to him. What kind of trash would understand his grand plans?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yunmao's face darkened as he said, "Hmph, with just you alone, you are a cripple without any skills. How could a trash like you understand what I had to say?" Don't get in my way here, get the hell down here, is this a place where you can stand? "

Lin Jing smiled and said, "Uncle, don't be anxious. I haven't finished speaking. After hearing what I have to say, you can still chase me away. With so many people watching, can't you maintain your composure?" If word of this gets out, it will not be good for you as the next Patriarch, right? "

He wanted to kick Lin Jing out, but after glancing at the guests below, he held himself back. He still had a sense of propriety when it came to important matters, so he gloomily said, "Speak, hurry up!"

The smile on Lin Jing's face intensified. "I'm just curious. Uncle, where did your Buddha statue come from?" Why does it look so familiar? It seems like I've seen it at a handicraft store before, you couldn't have been tricked, right? "

"What did you say?" Heh, putting on an act here, isn't that why Jiang Yun asked you to come up here and say that? When you were fighting with me, I'm afraid you didn't expect this thing to have such a great background! "Crafts, to think that you would be able to think of such a thing." Jiang Yunmao said with a sneer.

When Lin Jing said this, he didn't deliberately lower his voice. The guests below could hear his voice, and immediately, someone jeered, "Yo, there's actually such a shameless person without any skill at all. He actually dares to say that this black sandalwood Buddha statue is fake. Don't you have any brains?"

"Hai, he's the Jiang family's cheap grandson-in-law. That year, Old Granny Jiang relied on him to earn a lot of fame and sat on the chairman seat of the Arts Channel. No matter what, he still has to work hard even if he doesn't have any merits. He's nothing if he doesn't have the ability. He's thick-skinned enough."

"A dead cripple with a crippled body, no background, no identity, nothing good. He's just like a pile of mud, yet he's still able to eat soft food. That's great!"

Hearing these words of ridicule, Lin Jing's face remained as calm as ever, as if he had not heard anything. With a smile still on his face, he said to Jiang Yunmao, "Uncle, do you really think that this black sandalwood Buddha statue is real? Do you think this thing can bring you enough confidence? "

"Cut the crap. If you insist on saying it is fake, alright. As long as you can prove it, I will. But if you can't, get out of the Jiang family and never appear again!" Jiang Yunmao snorted coldly as he spoke to Lin Jing with a look of contempt.

Lin Jing didn't directly respond to Jiang Yunmao's words. Instead, he turned to look at the guests below the stage, especially the ones who had mocked him first. They were all Jiang Yunmao's men.

With a smile, Lin Jing asked, "All the bosses and seniors here also think that this black sandalwood Buddha statue is real?"

"Hehe, where did this arrogant brat come from? We have so many people watching, and all of them are famous seniors in the industry. Are you saying that we're wrong?"

"Don't say it like that, as long as a person doesn't care about face, it's not a problem to gamble with his life. What if he gambled correctly? In any case, he's just a pile of mud. If not, how far can he go? " The people below sneered and said.

Lin Qing turned around and looked at Old Lady Jiang. "Grandmother, do you also think that way?"

Old Madame Jiang frowned. Lin Jing's questioning had already made it clear that he wasn't standing on Jiang Yunmao's side. However, that didn't mean that the old lady would have any good feelings towards him. She was thinking about the bigger picture.

No matter how arrogant and impudent Jiang Yunmao was today, after the banquet, she would have plenty of ways to deal with her disobedient son.

However, in front of so many people, what Jiang Yunmao had taken out represented the Jiang family. To old lady Jiang, questioning the authenticity of the Buddha statue was undoubtedly questioning the Jiang family's background.

Narrowing her eyes, Old Granny Jiang said the first few words, "It's like this, don't you think?"

Lin Jing's heart sank. Why was Old Lady Jiang standing on Jiang Yunmao's side at this time? Why was she speaking up for him?

Could it be that the old lady had already decided from the very beginning that she was going to pass the position to Jiang Yunmao?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Lin Jing took a deep breath. The reason he had asked Old Lady Jiang was to test the waters, but he hadn't expected that there would be such a lack of room for manoeuvre in the end.

With just a few words, Lin Jing was pushed into a situation where he had no other choice. He sighed and finally said, "But this thing is fake!"

"Haha, hey, you really aren't afraid of saying something big. You really dare to say it out loud, don't you? Trash kid, you said it's fake, do you have any proof? " Someone below laughed and mocked him.

"Of course!" Lin Jing's eyes narrowed as he spoke with a confident tone. Then, he glanced at Old Dong.

Elder Dong had a strange expression on his face. It looked like he was surprised, but also seemed to be disappointed.

Lin Jing's heart once again thumped. Why would Elder Dong be disappointed?
