My brother is reborn and his engagement is changed; my ex-sister-in-law is pregnant again and again.

This kind of thing can't be hidden at all, especially since Lin Yuze and Su Rui never intended to hide it.

After all, following Grandpa Su's announcement of their engagement at his birthday banquet, people in the industry had already tacitly accepted that it was only a matter of time before the two got married. So, it was perfectly normal for news of the two buying a luxury mansion to emerge at this time.

"A billion? Really?"

Lin Yurui's face showed disbelief upon hearing this.

That's a billion!

Lin Yurui realized that her entire Lin family couldn't even come up with 100 million yuan, yet others were easily buying luxury homes for 1 billion yuan. At this moment, Lin Yurui couldn't help but think of her past life.

In fact, Su Rui and Lin Yurui were unwilling to marry in their previous life, so the wedding ceremony was very casual, and they even arranged for a secretary and wedding team to handle everything, which shows how perfunctory they were.

Now, Su Rui was actually taking Lin Yuze to look at houses, and this huge difference in treatment made Lin Yurui feel quite bad.

"How could this be fake? Anyway, I heard they've already bought it. Your brother is quite something, managing to actually marry Su Rui. I must say, he's really got some skills. From now on, he'll be the noble husband of President Su."

The voice on the other end of the phone was full of envy. To be precise, most of the second-generation rich kids in this circle envied Lin Yuze. After all, it was Su Rui. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also rich. Who hadn't dreamed of marrying Su Rui? But Lin Yuze got her instead.

At the very beginning, no one knew who Lin Yuze was. It was only after hearing that he was the second young master of the Lin family that everyone remembered that there was such a person. Hearing this, Lin Yurui took a deep breath.

"This guy..."

Lin Yurui's face was grim.

At this time, the Lin family was facing a huge financial crisis and was even looking for buyers for their villa. However, Lin Yuze and Su Rui spent a fortune on it, which made Lin Yurui feel somewhat unbalanced.

"I have something to do here, so I'll stop here."

"Okay, I'll call you again when I have time."

After saying this, Lin Yurui hung up the phone. After all, he was in a terrible mood and really didn't want to make any more calls. Sitting on the sofa, Lin Yurui took a deep breath.

"How did that bastard do that? Su Rui's behavior is so different..."

Lin Yurui really couldn't understand the reason.

At this moment, the villa door was suddenly pushed open, and Lin's father and Liang Hongyan walked in. During this period, due to financial problems, the two had contacted almost everyone they could find, but no one was willing to lend them money.

Looking at the expressions on her parents' faces, Lin Yurui knew that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this time they had also gained nothing; otherwise, they wouldn't have reacted this way.

"Mom and Dad, you're back?"

Lin Yurui stood up and said.

"Um."

Liang Hongyan and Lin's father were exhausted. They sat on the sofa, their eyes filled with obvious worry. They knew that raising money was not easy, but they had never imagined it would be this difficult.

"Dad, did today not go well?"

"It's not going very smoothly... Your mother and I discussed it when we came back, and now we still have to sell this villa."

This villa was originally bought for 100 million yuan. Although they have lived there for many years, it is estimated that it can still be sold for 70 million yuan. With this 70 million yuan, they can breathe a sigh of relief. Otherwise, without money, the factory would not be able to operate. In that case, they would not be able to deliver goods to their partners, which would lead to breach of contract and subsequent penalties. It would be a chain reaction. Although they would not end up as badly as the Qin family, they would only be slightly better off.

Hearing this, Lin Yurui took a deep breath.

"Do we really have to sell the house?"

"Can we really not sell? We have huge financial problems right now. Even selling this house wouldn't be enough. Oh well, let's just take it one step at a time."

At this moment, Liang Hongyan looked at Lin's father.

"If all else fails, talk to Yuze. Now that Yuze and Su Rui have announced their engagement, this money is a huge burden for us, but for Su Rui, it's just a drop in the ocean... right?"

Liang Hongyan hesitated for a moment, but finally focused her gaze on Lin Yuze. She felt that Lin Yuze was her last hope at this point, if he could help...

"Lin Yuze? Mom, you're still thinking about Lin Yuze? Let me tell you, if this ungrateful wretch was willing to help, he would have already helped when the Qin family had problems last time. Why are you so directly refusing us? I think you should just pretend you don't have this son."

"We should always give it a try. What if we're willing to offer up the Lin family's shares?"

At this moment, Liang Hongyan took a deep breath and spoke her mind. She understood that empty words wouldn't work on Lin Yuze, so she and Lin's father were considering giving Lin Yuze some shares in the Lin family business. Perhaps, in exchange for those shares, her second son might be able to help...

Anyway, this amount of money is really nothing to Su Rui.

Hearing this, Lin Yurui's expression turned ugly.

Give them shares?

Why should I?!

I don't even have any shares in the Lin family yet, so why should I give Lin Yuze shares?

Moreover, given Lin Yuze's appetite, if the other party really gets shares, he will definitely try every means to increase his say in the company. At that time, it's hard to say whether the company will belong to him or Lin Yuze.

At this moment, Lin's father looked at Lin Yurui. He knew that Lin Yurui would not be able to accept this, but there was no other way. After all, he was his most beloved eldest son. At this moment, Lin's father coughed.

"Yurui, don't worry. There really isn't any other way now. As you know, because of the Qin family's situation, our family has invested a total of 7 million yuan. Now the company is having operational problems, so this is the only thing we can do. I hope you can understand."

"But don't worry, Yuze won't get many shares, probably only around 15%. Most of the shares will still be yours, and the company will be yours too."

Hearing this, Lin Yurui lowered his head, his expression gloomy and uncertain. Clearly, he was unwilling, but what else could he do?

After all, the Qin family that Lin's father mentioned earlier was meant to subtly remind Lin Yurui that the reason the entire family was in such trouble was because Lin Yurui persuaded the Lin family to provide financing to the Qin family. If this hadn't happened, even if Qin Mei had been given 100 million yuan later, it wouldn't have actually caused any serious damage to the Lin family.

This implication completely silenced Lin Yurui, leaving him unsure how to address the matter. Ultimately, both Lin's father and Liang Hongyan were dissatisfied with Lin Yurui. After all, when choosing a marriage partner, both Lin's father and Liang Hongyan hoped that Lin Yurui would choose Su Rui, given that the Su family was far more powerful than the Qin family. However, they didn't know what had gotten into their son, as he chose Qin Mei. And even if he had chosen her, who could have imagined that Qin Mei and the Qin family would be in such a predicament?

Now look what happened: the money is gone, and so is the reputation. This is a classic case of losing both face and substance, so how could Lin's father and Liang Hongyan possibly be satisfied?

"But even if we give him shares, would Lin Yuze be willing to help? And even if Lin Yuze agrees, what about Su Rui? I don't think that for a strong woman like Su Rui, Lin Yuze's words would make her come up with so much money."

Lin Yurui knows Su Rui all too well. This woman values ​​her company and money very much; she's a complete career-driven woman.

"Well... let's give it a try. If it works, the shares will go to Yuze. If it doesn't work, then forget it. If all else fails, we'll think of other ways... Anyway, it's best not to sell this villa if we can avoid it."

At this moment, Lin's father looked up at the villa. In fact, the reason he didn't want to sell the villa was not because it held too many fond memories for them, but because even if they wanted to sell it, no one would be willing to buy it.

After all, the rich value reputation the most. This villa has everything, but it lacks reputation.

"Well...you guys give it a try."

At this point, that was all Lin Yurui could say.

He felt a sense of helplessness.

Since the Qin family incident, Lin Yurui has lost all initiative; to be precise, even the Lin family has lost all initiative.

"Okay, let's give it a try."

At this moment, Lin's father and Liang Hongyan exchanged glances, their eyes filled with helplessness. How could their parents possibly know about the conflict between Lin Yuze and Lin Yurui? In fact, when the two had disagreements, they would always favor Lin Yurui. Now, Lin Yuze had no feelings for them at all. Now that there were problems in the family, they could only exchange benefits, which left them with mixed feelings.

If these two people had treated Lin Yuze and Lin Yurui equally, things wouldn't have turned out this way. But unfortunately, they didn't treat them equally, which intensified the conflict between Lin Yuze and Lin Yurui, almost turning it into a situation where it was either him or her.

Lin Yuze was unaware of and did not want to know about the conversation at the Lin family's house. After buying the villa, Lin Yuze and Su Rui returned home.

At this moment, Lin Yuze was busy in the kitchen.

They had lunch with Chairman Huang, but the restaurant was rather ordinary, and the food was business-oriented, so they only ate about half a meal.

So, after returning home, Lin Yuze cooked a meal. However, since he had already eaten some of it, he didn't cook it properly and instead made a chicken noodle soup.

Meanwhile, Su Rui sat on the sofa, looking at her phone and glancing at Lin Yuze, who was busy at work, from time to time.

In the past, Su Rui would help out, but Lin Yuze found that when Su Rui came to help, she was less efficient than when he did it alone. But back then, the two of them had just started living together, so there were many things they were embarrassed to say.

Just like when you first start dating, you're too embarrassed to fart or burp in front of your partner. But if you've been together for a while or gotten to know each other better, you'll find that it's already a good thing if you don't fart in front of your partner.

It was obvious that Lin Yuze and Su Rui were in this situation at that time. Therefore, after they became more familiar with each other, Lin Yuze stopped letting Su Rui into the kitchen, on the grounds that she would cause trouble.

When had Su Rui ever suffered such injustice? She said she wanted to prove herself, but then that day, while she was frying steak, there was a natural gas leak... If Lin Yuze hadn't discovered the problem, those two would probably be finished.

Because of this, Su Rui agreed to Lin Yuze's request not to go into the kitchen.

"Senior, come and eat."

Just as Su Rui was looking at her phone, a voice came through. It was Lin Yuze's voice. It seemed that the food was ready and Lin Yuze was inviting Su Rui to come and eat.

"They're here."

After hearing this, Su Rui went to the restaurant.

At this moment, Su Rui looked at Lin Yuze.

"You know, we're really strange. We didn't eat at any fancy restaurants, but we came back and ate noodles. It's really something."

Su Rui's tone was teasing, and Lin Yuze smiled upon hearing this.

"Doesn't this prove that my cooking skills are better than those of chefs in high-end restaurants?"

"But senior, I have to complain. The food at those restaurants was really just so-so. Honestly, I think it's not as good as what I make."

"And not only is the taste mediocre, but the portion is also small. Maybe... I'm just not used to such high-end food."

Lin Yuze sighed. He had his own views on eating. The environment and presentation of the food were not important. What mattered was the taste. As long as the taste was good, anything was fine.

But those high-end restaurants, well, apart from the taste being bad, are really top-notch in everything else. Hearing this, Su Rui smiled.

"That's normal. I'm not really interested in those business restaurants either, but there's no other way. Sometimes when I'm treating people to a meal, I have to arrange these kinds of places, otherwise they'll think I'm disrespectful."

Hearing this, Lin Yuze looked at Su Rui with curiosity.

"Does the senior also need to treat people to meals?"

Su Rui smiled.

"No need for that. I'm usually the one who gets invited to dinner. At most, it's my subordinates who treat others to meals."

What Su Rui said was true. After all, given Su Rui's net worth, influence, and status, it was almost impossible for her to invite people to dinner. Even if she did invite someone to dinner, it would most likely be the chairman of a branch company or a department director.

"Oh~"

"Senior, eat up! I think I did an exceptionally well today."

Hearing this, Su Rui nodded.

I took a bite...

Su Rui did indeed think it tasted good.

At this moment, Su Rui felt that she would be very happy if Lin Yuze became a full-time husband, after all, his cooking and emotional support were just too perfect.

"Great, great, delicious."

Su Rui praised.

"Senior, if you like it, eat more. If you're not full, there's more in the kitchen."

"I feel like... I'll be fattened up by you a little later."

Hearing this, Lin Yuze scratched his head.

"Huh? Senior, haven't you gained weight already?"

OK OK.

Lin Yuze certainly knows how to make people unhappy.

Then, Su Rui looked at Lin Yuze and gave him her most standard smile.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

broken.

Lin Yuze felt he might be going to die.
