Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 48 - 0: Business Card

Chongming District.

Lin Langsheng drove his car back to the residential area assigned to his work unit.

In the yard, Liu Yan’s BMW 7 series was parked.

Seeing Lin Langsheng come in, Liu Yan, who was talking with her sister-in-law Zhao Yanrong, hurriedly said, "Brother, I met Little Yue’s mother-in-law. She just happened to come to Jiangcheng to visit Gu Feng. I had a meal with her and spent the day shopping."

Once Lin Langsheng knew that Lin Yue was bringing Gu Feng home and didn’t need his help, he actually stopped paying much attention to Lin Yue’s side.

In his view, after the marriage arrangement between his niece Lin Yue and the Su Family fell through, his career was pretty much at an end.

As an elder, all he could do was to help his niece find a well-matched capitalist husband.

But since his niece had already made her choice, he was less concerned about them.

Hearing Liu Yan mention Gu Feng’s mother, his interest wasn’t very high.

He casually set his briefcase down and sat tiredly on the sofa, making tea for himself while perfunctorily saying, "Is it just like the rumors outside, just an ordinary background?"

The recent rumors all came from the night Liu Jin’s private room, spread by models and Internet celebrities, including what Zhang Jun and others had found out; they were all the same story.

Everyone was convinced that Lin Yue’s husband had no background at all. The circles were all abuzz with the story that Lin Yue, in order to break into higher capital markets to save her group, deliberately crafted her husband into a man with a mysterious background, also to attract big capital or to be able to speak with big capital for self-promotion.

Several points led to the acceptance of this view.

Firstly, Thunder Group’s current financial and operational situation had not improved at all.

Secondly, Lin Langsheng was still sidelined at his job.

If Lin Yue’s husband really had the power, these things couldn’t possibly remain the same without any positive signs.

Even because of this rumor, Lin Langsheng got a sarcastic comment from the second-in-command at his workplace.

"Director Lin, if one day you get assigned to a position in the city, you must remember me and the Big Housekeeper," the number two deliberately complimented Lin Langsheng in front of others.

This almost made Lin Langsheng lose face.

Because the Big Housekeeper in the district heard this comment.

Logically, the first to be transferred would definitely be the Big Housekeeper.

Fortunately, the Big Housekeeper wasn’t so petty and had a one-on-one talk with him, advising him not to take it to heart and to work hard.

These workplace issues had left Lin Langsheng utterly exhausted lately. He felt that those who harbored resentment against the Lin family were fanning the flames behind his back, wanting to take advantage of his weakness to strike a fatal blow.

Hearing Lin Langsheng ask this, Liu Yan said based on her own analysis, "It’s probably just like the rumors say, a common background."

His wife, Zhao Yanrong, said to her husband, "Yan told me that this mother-in-law brought her daughter-in-law tea leaves and cigarettes on her visit."

Logically, if your family had some background and strength, knowing your daughter-in-law comes from a wealthy family, the gifts you bring her should at least be luxury goods.

Like handbags or high-end jewelry as a meeting present.

But it’s tea leaves and cigarettes.

"By the way, this mother-in-law brought tea leaves and cigarettes that Little Yue doesn’t appreciate or need, so she told me to just give them to you, Brother, since you always like these things," Liu Yan remembered the gifts Yu Ling had brought and took out two packs of cigarettes and a cake of tea from her handbag.

"Brother, you should try this tea. If it tastes good, the mother-in-law said she’ll bring more next time she visits."

Lin Langsheng was busy opening his own tin of tea leaves and looked up when he saw Liu Yan handing them over.

He was stunned.

Then, his entire demeanor changed to one of shock as he clearly saw the seal on the whole pack of cigarettes and the tea cake that Liu Yan took completely out of the handbag.

He snatched the tea cake from Liu Yan’s hand and examined the perfect special seal closely, then carefully inspected the cigarettes.

Liu Yan was startled by her brother’s behavior.

She looked bewildered at Lin Langsheng, who had become completely frozen.

"What’s wrong?"

Lin Langsheng’s breath suddenly grew rapid as he looked at the cigarette packaging, educating his sister-in-law Liu Yan, "Do you see that this cigarette is only labeled as a product of Dragon Nation Tobacco Company, but it lacks any market quality inspection barcode?"

Liu Yan couldn’t understand these things and shook her head.

"These cigarettes can’t be bought on the market; they’re specially supplied by the tobacco company," said Lin Langsheng, a bit excited. "In the whole of Jiangcheng, I’ve only ever seen one person smoke these cigarettes."

Liu Yan and Zhao Yanrong exchanged glances and in unison voiced, "The Big Housekeeper?"

Lin Langsheng nodded, "These cigarettes are indeed only supplied to government officials higher than a magistrate on a national level!"

Liu Yan’s eyes brightened, "Brother, do you mean to say that Feng’s father has at least the background of a magistrate?"

"More than that," Lin Langsheng looked at the tea leaves, his eyes growing brighter. "If the cigarettes circulate only among the circle of magistrates, then this tea with the Dragon Nation seal can only point to a small circle in Beijing, and a very small one at that!"

As he spoke, Lin Langsheng grew more excited, "Yan, with just these two gifts, your mother-in-law outshines all luxury items. In the real core circles of power in Dragon Nation, these two items are like calling cards!"

His wife Zhao Yanrong became excited as well, "Old Lin, why don’t you go visit them?"
