nSaying this, Yu Jianhao pushed the check in front of Lin Bai.

n

nLin Bai politely pushed it back and said with a smile, “Uncle, I can accept your thanks, but you’d better take this check back.”

n

nYu Jianhao didn’t expect that Lin Bai would be able to remain calm and collected when faced with a huge check, without the slightest hint of greed.

n

nHis impression of Lin Bai was improved further.

n

nHowever, the more he liked Lin Bai, the more he hoped that Lin Bai would take the check.

n

nThis was because he could tell that Lin Bai’s family background was very ordinary.

n

nWhether it was the way he dressed or the information revealed in his words, all of them proved that Lin Bai was just an ordinary person from an ordinary background.

n

nFor an ordinary person, five million yuan was enough to bring about a huge change to the entire family.

n

nEven if it wasn’t enough to change their fate, it could at least allow his entire family to live comfortably without having to constantly struggle for a living.

n

nWith this thought in mind, Yu Jianhao pushed the check back to Lin Bai.

n

nHe sincerely said to Lin Bai, “Don’t feel embarrassed. You deserve it. Take it.”

n

nHe didn’t know that Lin Bai had already won the lottery and wasn’t short of money at all.

n

nHe just relied on his own experience and assumed that Lin Bai had never seen such a large amount of money. He didn’t dare to accept it and was embarrassed to accept it.

n

nThat was why he repeatedly tried to persuade him.

n

nLin Bai smiled indifferently and said, “There’s really no need.”

n

n“Actually, Uncle, not only do you not have to give me so much money, you don’t even have to thank me so much.”

n

n“Given my relationship with Jinmo, it’s only right to save her. You don’t have to thank me like this.”

n

nYu Jianhao’s heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling.

n

n“Your relationship with Jinmo?”

n

nHe repeated Lin Bai’s words, and his tone had clearly turned cold.

n

nLin Bai turned to look at Yu Jinmo who was beside him and used his gaze to ask her if she wanted to reveal their relationship right now.

n

nWithout thinking, Yu Jinmo hugged Lin Bai’s arm.

n

nShe said to Yu Jianhao, “Dad, we’ve been dating for more than a week. He’s my boyfriend.”

n

n“So, you don’t have to thank him so much. As his boyfriend, isn’t it his duty to save me?”

n

nYu Jianhao’s expression turned cold.

n

nThe good impression he had built up was now gone.

n

n“Yu Jinmo, let go of him! This is so inappropriate!”

n

n“Don’t forget that you have a fiancé!”

n

nYu Jianhao was so angry that he slammed his hand against the table.

n

nHe had always doted on Yu Jinmo and rarely called her by her full name.

n

nNow, it was enough to show that he was really angry.

n

nIt was the first time Yu Jinmo saw his father so angry and he was so scared that he withdrew his hand.

n

nBut he quickly reacted and hugged Lin Bai’s arm again.

n

nShe suppressed the fear in her heart and said with a stiff neck, “I don’t! I never agreed to that marriage! I don’t acknowledge anyone else to be my fiancé!”

n

n“I only recognize Lin Bai as my true lover! He’s my future husband whom I want to spend the rest of my life with!”

n

nYu Jianhao was so angry that his face turned pale.

n

n“Nonsense!”

n

n“Little Wang is a talented person. Regardless of his family background, identity, or education, he’s a perfect match for you!”

n

n“How can this kid compare to him?”

n

n“I think you’re obsessed!”

n

nThe Little Wang that Yu Jianhao mentioned was called Wang Hao. He was the son of another influential financial corporation in the city.

n

nAlthough the Wang family was slightly inferior in terms of business, their family had a wide network and had many connections in the capital.

n

nOn the other hand, the Yu family was the opposite. Although they had a lot of businesses, they lacked the resources of the upper echelons. As such, their development was limited and it was difficult for them to expand.

n

nIf the two families were to marry, it would be beneficial to both sides. It would be very beneficial to both parties’ future development.

n

nThat was why Yu Jianhao made the decision to arrange this marriage with Wang Hao’s father.

n

nHowever, Yu Jinmo had never agreed to it. She even repeatedly emphasized to her father that she was already in love with someone else.

n

nPreviously, Yu Jianhao did not take it to heart. He thought that his daughter was just looking for excuses to reject the marriage.

n

nNow, everything made sense. He knew that Yu Jinmo’s resistance was all because of Lin Bai.

n

nThis made him even more disgusted with Lin Bai. He felt that it was all Lin Bai’s instigation behind the scenes that caused his daughter to become so rebellious.

n

n“Lin Bai, you’re really good at tricks. Even I was almost fooled by you!”

n

n“I think what Chen Yang said is right. You’re a scheming, freeloading man who deliberately gets close to rich girls!”

n

n“What hero saves the damsel in distress? Even if it was really such a coincidence, I think it’s a trap that you deliberately set up!”

n

nYu Jianhao’s anger was burning in his heart, but he couldn’t bear to scold his precious daughter, so he vented all of his resentment onto Lin Bai.

n

nAfter Lin Bai heard this, he sneered.

n

n“Uncle, you are Jinmo’s father. I didn’t want to be rude to you.”

n

n“But I really have to say that you are blind. You have wasted so many years in the business world.”

n

n“You treat him as your in-law, and he treats you as his enemy. You can’t even tell that he has planted spies around you. It’s ridiculous.”

n

nYu Jianhao was furious.

n

n“What nonsense are you spouting!”

n

nLin Bai said, “Why don’t you send someone to check if you’re spouting nonsense?”

n

n“For Jinmo’s sake, let me remind you that the person you trust the most is probably the person you suspect the most.”

n

n“For example, that Chen Yang.”

n

n“Uncle, don’t you think that his hostility towards me is a little strange?”

n

nYu Jianhao’s expression was livid.

n

n“Nonsense!”

n

nLin Bai was too lazy to continue wasting his breath.

n

nYou can never wake up someone who’s pretending to be asleep. It was useless to say anything to those who refused to believe in him.

n

n“Anyway, I’ve already said what I need to say. It’s up to you whether you listen or not. I still have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first.”

n

nLin Bai stood up decisively and left.

n

nYu Jinmo also stood up and prepared to leave with him.

n

nShe said to Yu Jianhao, “Father, Lin Bai has never spoken carelessly. Since he said that Chen Yang is a spy arranged by the Wang family, it must be true.”

n

n“Whether you believe it or not, I hope that you can at least investigate it for my sake.”

n

nAfter saying that, she went out of the room to take chase.

n

nYu Jianhao looked at his daughter’s back as she left and slammed his fist on the table angrily.

n

n“Unfilial daughter!”

n

nHe didn’t believe the old saying that a daughter couldn’t be kept at home when she gets older, but now he felt that what the ancestors said made a lot of sense.

n

nHe really wanted to immediately order someone to kidnap Yu Jinmo and ground her. He didn’t want her to have any contact with Lin Bai.

n

nHowever, in the end, he still couldn’t bear to treat his precious daughter like that.

n

n“Hmph, so be it! When we find out that the kid surnamed Lin is spouting nonsense, let’s see if you still believe him!”

n

nWith the intention of exposing Lin Bai’s true colors, Yu Jianhao made a phone call in a huff.

n

n“I want all the information on Chen Yang within an hour!”

n
