Chapter 64: Taking Advantage? Lin Guoqiang’s Roar!

Su Lin, along with Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu, were chatting and laughing, unaware that they were being followed.

They were discussing the specifics of their supermarket’s grand opening, so their attention wasn’t on the car trailing them. Lin Xiaowan never imagined that Lin Guoqiang would come to pick her up from school.

After about fifteen minutes, Tian Wei’s expression changed, “Guoqiang, this road doesn’t look familiar, it’s heading towards the development zone.”

Lin Guoqiang waved his hand dismissively, “No matter where they go, just follow them. Today, I want to see what Xiaowan is really up to.”

“Alright, but remember Xiaowan is a sensible girl. Don’t get too angry.”

“Hmph!”

“Sensible? I thought Xiaowan was sensible before I came here today, but now I’m not so sure,” Lin Guoqiang said, barely containing his anger. He felt like he could slaughter Su Lin at that moment, his fury mounting.

Seeing Lin Guoqiang’s state, Tian Wei sighed but said nothing. He understood why Lin Guoqiang was so angry – he’d be furious too if his daughter acted this way.

Another fifteen minutes passed, and Su Lin’s group parked in front of the supermarket, which was under renovation.

“They’ve stopped. Hey, this place is being renovated. What are these kids doing here?” Tian Wei was surprised, looking at the building under construction.

Lin Guoqiang was also puzzled, but he remained silent, choosing to continue observing. He knew the truth would soon reveal itself.

“Su Lin, I’ll go check today’s financial situation with Xiao Juan,” said Xia Shiyu.

“Go ahead, Xiaoyu,” Su Lin waved her off.GEtt the latest novels at novelhall.com

“Okay~!!!”

As Xia Shiyu left, the foreman approached with two helmets, “Boss Su, you’re here to check the progress again?”

Su Lin took the helmet and handed one to Lin Xiaowan, “Yeah, we had some free time today, so we came to check. How’s the progress, Wang Gong? All going smoothly?”

Wang Gong nodded, “With the payment settled, the guys are working hard. Progress is fast.”

“That’s good. We’ll go in and have a look. You carry on with your work, and we’ll call you if needed.”

“Okay~!!”

Wang Gong didn’t intend to chat more with Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan, mostly due to the age and perspective gap.

Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan, holding pre-prepared blueprints, entered the supermarket.

“Guoqiang, are they supervising the work?” Tian Wei asked uncertainly.

The scene surprised him. Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan, both senior high school students, were starting a business?

Lin Guoqiang was surprised too, “It must be Su Zhenguo’s son’s doing. Xiaowan wouldn’t have such a grand idea. Getting her involved in school activities is one thing, but starting a business? She’s still too young for that.”

Tian Wei nodded in agreement, “Should we get out and have a look?”

“Go to hell~!!” Lin Xiaowan kicked his leg.

“Ouch~! Xiaowan, you’re quite strong, you nearly wrecked my leg.”

“Stop it, your bones are as hard as iron. A kick from me won’t hurt you, but it hurts my foot,” Lin Xiaowan grumbled.

Su Lin chuckled. His physique had become much stronger compared to Lin Xiaowan’s gentleness, almost like iron indeed.

“I’m warning you, don’t hit me casually, or I’ll get angry.”

Su Lin shrugged, “Then you also need to stop joking about me and Xiaoyu, especially when we’re together.”

“I’ll try...”

“Then I’ll try too...”

After touring the three floors and planning the placement of goods and aisles, they left the supermarket.

Su Lin looked at the supermarket, somewhat troubled.

“What’s wrong? Any other issues?”

Su Lin nodded, “Indeed, we’re missing an elevator. Having an elevator would surely increase foot traffic. Not many supermarkets in Donghai have one. If we have it in Zhongjiang, it’ll be quite prestigious.”

“But you’re opening in just over ten days. It’s not easy to buy an elevator domestically on such short notice.”

Su Lin nodded, “That’s a problem, but not an unsolvable one.” He thought of Li Hongyang, Su Zhenguo’s right-hand man, who could surely contact an elevator manufacturer.

“But isn’t your budget too tight for an elevator?”

Su Lin shook his head, “Definitely not. Xiaowan, I owe it to you for saving me two hundred thousand. Two hundred thousand for an elevator, maybe a little more, should be enough.”

Unaware of current elevator prices, Su Lin assumed two hundred thousand would suffice for a two-story elevator.

Hearing this, Lin Xiaowan beamed with pride, “That’s right... without me, they might not have sold to you even for a million. You should open more companies for me.”

Su Lin laughed, “Not even a penny in wages.”

“Bang~!!”

“Why the horseplay, why kick me?”

“It’s your fault for teasing me. I saved you so much money, busy day and night with you, and you won’t pay me wages. That’s like treating me as free labor,” Lin Xiaowan said, slightly angry.

Though she hadn’t thought about wages, Su Lin’s blunt words still upset her.

Su Lin immediately stepped forward, took Lin Xiaowan’s hand, pinched her nose, and said with a smile, “You fool, don’t forget we’re starting a business together. Paying wages won’t work.”

“No wages, but shares, yes. I’ve prepared them for you, Xiaoyu, and Chen Yang.”

Meanwhile, in an Audi across the street, Lin Guoqiang roared in a textbook fashion, “That brat, daring to take advantage of my daughter!!!”
