Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 525 Coming to Apologize
Lin Mo's single phone call prompted the leaders of two companies to begin taking covert action.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo and the others split into two groups. After closing the studio, the class monitor and He Xiaoyue went directly to the mall to purchase the items needed for the studio.

This matter has nothing to do with them. After all, they are two girls, and there is no need for them to get involved. As for Director Wang and Chuanmei, it also has nothing to do with them, but Lin Mo knows that the two of them will not let him go there on his own.

The other party clearly had ill intentions. They were all buddies, and they had both seen what Lin Mo had done for them. Even if they couldn't help much with this, they had to go and lend a hand to boost morale.

After all, if it weren't for Lin Mo, Chuanmei's account wouldn't have become popular, let alone a place for Director Wang and the class monitor to stay.

Secondly, Chuanmei's account still needs Lin Mo's help. Even Miss Yuan, the strongest external aid, was introduced by Lin Mo. How could Chuanmei and Director Wang let him go there on his own?

As for Miss Yuan, she's just here to watch the fun, and no one is worried about her safety. The other party is too afraid to even think about it. Anyone with a bit of status wouldn't be foolish enough to cause trouble for Miss Yuan. Of course, thugs and young punks are an exception, since it's not just a saying that noobs can beat experts.

Lin Mo first went back to wash up and change his clothes, then drove the car with the box containing the "Creation of Heaven and Earth: The Fission of the Earth" and the three of them, including Miss Yuan, towards the restaurant.

Meanwhile, the Qin family and the Huang family, father and sons, were talking in a minivan.

"Brother Qin, do you think that kid will let go this time?" Huang Dayong asked somewhat uneasily.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenhong shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, but fortunately, I didn't expect him to agree so easily anyway."

I don't believe a young man can have that much mental fortitude. As long as he agrees to meet, that's a good thing.

If all else fails, and we're pushed to the limit, we're not afraid to use unconventional methods like electricity!

"Isn't that a bit inappropriate? What about the Yuan family and the Liu family?" Huang Dayong said uncertainly.

Upon hearing this, a hint of apprehension flashed in Qin Zhenhong's eyes, but he immediately said, "We're already in this situation. When people are pushed to the limit, I don't care whose family it is. Let's solve the problem first, and everything else can wait."

Besides, we don't need to handle this personally, Lao Huang, haven't you figured it out yet? There's absolutely no room for backing down on this matter between our two families!

Hearing this, Huang Dayong pursed his lips, wanting to say that he still had a way out. After all, it was just that the hotel couldn't continue operating. Even if it closed down, his family's current savings would be enough to live comfortably.

But this was, after all, the culmination of his life's work, and he was unwilling to give it up and watch his hard work vanish into nothingness.

"Okay, then we'll do it your way."

Meanwhile, two people Lin Mo knew received phone calls asking them to go to the Wednesday Hotel to help out.

An hour and a half later, Lin Mo and his group arrived at the restaurant entrance. After opening the door and looking at the interior, Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh.

Having been closed for nearly half a month, the restaurant wasn't dusty, but it didn't meet the requirements for receiving guests.

"Director Wang, go to the kitchen and get some water. Give the sofa and coffee table on the first floor a quick wipe. Chuanmei, go boil some water. We can't have guests without even a cup of tea; that's not how I treat guests," Lin Mo said calmly.

Wang Chu went into the kitchen without saying a word, while Chuan Mei nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lao Mo, I'll go right away!"

"What about me? What should I do?" Miss Yuan asked excitedly.

Hearing this, Lin Mo glanced at her and said, "When it's time to start mocking them, just perform at your normal level. As for whether or not to give them face, that's up to you!"

"Just you wait and see. You think I'll give you face? Unless it's my grandparents or my grandmother. Who do they think they are, acting tough on my turf and even messing with my people? Today I'll show them who their lackeys are!" Miss Yuan put her hands on her hips, looking arrogant and ready to fight at any moment.

Of course, this is also why Lin Mo brought Miss Yuan here. Firstly, Miss Yuan has a very strong verbal attack, and secondly, there is her status.

Putting everything else aside, just her wealthy father and powerful maternal grandfather and uncle—even if they did nothing, just their presence alone was enough to make the other side hesitate to act.

Soon, Director Wang took a rag and wiped the sofa and coffee table in the living room on the first floor. Although there was still some dust on the floor, it didn't prevent him from receiving guests.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and soon, two black commercial vehicles stopped in front of the [Wednesday] Hotel.

Four people got out of one of the cars; they were the Qin and Huang families, father and son pairs.

"Old Mo's here, they're here!" Chuanmei said nervously. Hearing this, Lin Mo calmly replied, "So what if they're here? If you're nervous, go upstairs!"

After saying that, he calmly refilled Miss Yuan's teacup.

Upon hearing this, Chuanmei sighed helplessly, and then sat down on either side of the two men, one on each side of Wang Chuyi.

"How could that be? It's four against four. Even if I lose, I won't lose face. I'll just sit here and cheer myself on."

Lin Mo smiled at this and didn't take it to heart.

Outside, the hotel doors were open, but no one came to greet them, and the four of them looked rather unhappy.

Qin Tian and Huang Hao, the two young men in particular, felt that this was an insult to them.

But they also knew that the situation was different now than before, so they didn't dare to speak up in the end.

Qin Zhenhong glanced at the two cars parked to the side and couldn't help but look at them a few more times. From these two cars, he could tell that the other party was not a simple college student.

"Let's go!" Qin Zhenhong said softly, beckoning to the others, and then took the lead as he approached the restaurant entrance.

The moment the four entered the restaurant, they were met with the gaze of four pairs of eyes.

This was the first time everyone had met in person; previously, they had only communicated by phone.

Lin Mo's team was clearly too young; in fact, Qin Zhenhong and Huang Dayong considered them a bunch of greenhorns.

But this student, who was even younger than his son, plunged his family into a huge crisis, so he had to put away his contempt.

"Young Master Lin, I've long admired your name. Now that I've finally met you in person, you truly are a promising young man."

Seeing that none of the four young men intended to get up, Qin Zhenhong couldn't help but laugh, and his gaze immediately fell on Lin Mo. There was no other reason than that he had already thoroughly investigated Lin Mo's background.

As for the fact that none of the four showed any intention of getting up, Qin Zhenhong considered this little trick to be nothing more than a child's game, nothing more than an attempt to intimidate him. He paid no attention to it.

"Yes, Mr. Qin, please sit down!" Lin Mo pointed to the sofa opposite him and said calmly, while pouring tea into the four empty cups in front of him.

Seeing this, Qin Zhenhong walked over, but did not sit down. He said directly, "Brother Lin, I came here specifically to apologize to you. My son was ignorant and arrogant. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive him!"

“Yes, yes, my son isn’t very bright. I’ve already slapped him. Please forgive him, Brother Lin!” Huang Dayong chimed in, slapping his son Huang Hao on the head as he shouted angrily, “What are you looking at? Speak up!”

Upon hearing this, Huang Hao felt somewhat aggrieved, but he still stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Young Master Lin, I was out of my mind about this. I apologize to you. I'm sorry!"

"Young Master Lin, I was wrong before. I shouldn't have threatened you. I'm sorry," Qin Tian quickly said. After all, the two of them came here today to apologize. If the person involved wasn't there, then there was no point in talking about sincerity.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Zhenhong and Huang Dayong quickly stepped forward, each taking a check from their pockets and placing it on the table.

Lin Mo glanced down at it and couldn't help but laugh, "Tsk tsk tsk, what a grand gesture!"

The two checks each showed an amount of fifty million, which together amounted to one hundred million.

In other words, if he nods now, he can immediately become a billionaire, achieve financial freedom, and enjoy life for the rest of his life.

This is double the amount mentioned in the previous phone call, which shows great sincerity, but it also reflects the immense pressure both companies have been under over the past two days.

Otherwise, neither of them would have spent so much money to resolve this matter; the only explanation is that if things continued this way, the losses would be even greater.

"As long as Brother Lin is satisfied!" Qin Zhenhong said with a smile, but beneath that smile lay a cold and stern look.
