The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

After exchanging greetings, the mother swallow immediately launched her attack.

"Why didn't Yanzi come back for dinner with you? Weren't you together? Or do you not want to bring her back to meet your parents?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun immediately felt a headache coming on.

He quickly shook his head with a smile and explained the reason.

"Auntie, that's not true at all. Yanzi and I are indeed together, and I've already met my parents and grandparents."

"I haven't had time to see you both until now. I apologize for this, and I hope you will forgive me!"

Yanzi's parents quickly exchanged a glance, and their expressions instantly softened.

Before they could speak, Ling Yun changed the subject.

"There's a special reason why Yanzi didn't come back with me tonight. This afternoon, I officially acquired the fashion magazine where Yanzi works."

"Starting today, Yanzi will be the third largest shareholder and content director of the fashion magazine, and will become one of the magazine's owners."

"Around 6 p.m., the magazine will hold a press conference to officially announce the news, followed by a celebration and thank-you dinner for the media."

"As one of the company's owners and my representative, Yanzi will attend the press conference and the thank-you dinner, and will deliver speeches at both events!"

"The magazine has a significant influence in the domestic fashion, culture, film, and entertainment industries. The press conference will be broadcast live, and you can watch it on television..."

As he spoke, he picked up the remote control from the coffee table and casually turned on the TV.

Then switch to the entertainment channel of Beijing TV. The press conference to be held later will be broadcast live on the entertainment channel of Beijing TV.

The time hasn't come yet, and the live broadcast hasn't started.

The program currently playing on TV is one of the most popular variety shows on Beijing TV, "Starry Night Story Show".

At this point, the show was halfway through, and the audience was filled with laughter.

Guo Degang, dressed in a Versace latest style garment that looked like something from a street stall, was making witty remarks, making the female host and guests laugh uproariously!

Looking at Yanzi's parents, their eyes were filled with undisguised joy.

As parents, they were naturally overjoyed to hear that their daughter had become one of the owners of a fashion magazine!

Yanzi's father works in the cultural and broadcasting system, and holds a high position. He is well aware of the status and influence of the fashion magazine in the domestic fashion circle!

Without exaggeration, it is absolutely one of the best.

There are very few similar journals that can rival its influence!

Seeing that the swallows have reached such heights, it would be strange if they weren't happy!

The current situation is that they have to try hard to keep their expressions straight and not show too much joy.

In that case, the rest of the story will be difficult to perform.

The next moment, Swallow's father nodded gently.

"I see. That reason makes sense, but there's one thing I don't quite understand."

"You are the controlling shareholder of the fashion magazine, so why didn't you attend today's press conference, but instead put Yanzi at the front?"

Ling Yun smiled and continued to explain.

"The reason is simple: what I'm doing now requires strict confidentiality. I'm responsible to my investment team, I can't betray SZ's trust, and I can't reveal my identity!"

"This situation will continue for quite some time, I can't say exactly how long. During this period, only Yanzi and the lawyer can represent me..."

The moment they heard the words "SZ", Yanzi's parents felt a pang in their hearts.

They all work within the system and are highly perceptive enough to understand the weight of Ling Yun's words!

Moreover, they also knew that Ling Yun was a member of the Financial Stability and Development Committee who enjoyed the treatment of a department-level official.

The answer to the question of what high a position someone of Lingyun's caliber holds and where he lives is obvious!

Yanzi's parents exchanged a quick glance, both seeing a hint of shock in each other's eyes, but even more so, joy!

They immediately changed the subject and asked about other things!

After asking several questions in a row, Swallow's mother suddenly interrupted.

"Yunzi, now that you're with Yanzi, what are your thoughts on marriage? You can't just keep it a secret forever!"

As soon as he said that, the room fell silent, with only Gangzi's voice taunting the female host and female guests remaining.

Everyone looked at Ling Yun, each with a different expression.

Lingyun's parents were filled with worry, fearing that Lingyun's answer would anger Yanzi's parents, which would be troublesome!

Unlike them, Yanzi's parents looked on with concern!

From their perspective, of course they hope that Lingyun and Yanzi will walk down the aisle together; that would be the most perfect outcome!

Ling Yun, however, had a terrible headache. He pretended to think and then fell silent.

After a moment of hesitation, he looked up at the swallow's parents.

"I don't know if Yanzi has told you this, but in the international financial market, I have enemies everywhere. Many people have even lost their families and lives because of me, and they all hate me for not dying!"

"What's worse, I've now become a thorn in the side of some top international financial institutions. If it weren't for SZ's concern in Haizi, I might have already been in trouble!"

"For Yanzi's safety, marriage is not the best option; it might make her a target for those enemies!"

"hiss!"

Yanzi's parents both gasped in shock; they were quite startled.

They never imagined that Ling Yun, who was just investing in the international financial market, could make so many enemies and even threaten the safety of those around him.

But upon closer reflection, they realized it was quite normal.

Where does Ling Yun's astonishing wealth, which he so frantically amassed from the international financial market, come from? He couldn't possibly have printed it himself, could he?

It was all contributed by a bunch of unlucky guys. Those guys went bankrupt, how could they not hate him?

The concern Lingyun mentioned from Haizi put them a little more at ease!

Seeing the astonished expressions on his parents' and Yanzi's parents' faces, Lingyun almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He quickly composed himself and continued his alarmist remarks.

"My efforts in helping Yanzi make various investments overseas, transforming her into an astonishingly wealthy billionaire, were all part of a strategy focused on asset security."

"With the wealth Yanzi possesses now and in the future, she could never spend it all in ten lifetimes. She will never have to worry about making money again and can live however she pleases."

"In this situation, does it even matter whether we get married or not? If we get married and become legally married, all the arrangements I've made will be for nothing."

"If something happens to me, Yanzi will definitely be implicated, and her safety might even be in danger. That's why I've decided not to marry Yanzi!"

"Of course, I can assure you both that I will always treat Yanzi well in this life, and I will never abandon her unless she wants to leave me."

As these resounding words fell silent once more, the scene fell silent again.

Yanzi's parents fell silent, their expressions becoming much more serious.

My parents' expressions weren't good either. They exchanged a glance and were about to speak up to ease the tension.

Just then, the television screen suddenly changed.

The camera shifts from the chubby, dark-skinned man who was telling jokes and making the two female guests laugh heartily, to a stylish and elegant hall.

Inevitably, several long tables are placed directly in front of the hall, with flowers blooming in front of them and several large gilded characters on the wall above.

Fashion Magazine

As the live stream camera panned across the scene, several staff members were setting up the venue, while numerous media reporters were taking photos and videos.

On one side of the hall, Yanzi was discussing something in hushed tones with Zhang Lu.

The magazine's management and staff, who were in the lobby, would occasionally look in Yanzi's direction, their eyes filled with disbelief!

Seeing this, Ling Yun immediately smiled and said:

"Everyone, turn on the TV! The press conference is about to begin. This is the fashion magazine's press conference room..."

Before the words were even finished, both sets of parents had already turned their attention to the television screen.

Yanzi's parents spotted their precious daughter at a glance. Seeing her spirited appearance, they suddenly felt much more at peace!
