Chapter 216 Su Qingge was stunned: I married into a wealthy family?
Chapter 216 Su Qingge was stunned: I married into a wealthy family?
The autumn wind swept up the fallen leaves on the ground.
Su Qingge stood frozen outside the infirmary, wearing high heels.
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were wide open at that moment, filled with disbelief and deep confusion.
Outside the door were five bulletproof Rolls-Royce Phantoms, and in the corridor were menacing bodyguards in black.
Meanwhile, her husband, who usually wore a cheap sweatshirt and slippers and cooked noodles for her in the kitchen, was now wearing a black and gold dragon-patterned ring that symbolized supreme power.
His lazy, street-smart demeanor had completely vanished.
Instead, it is replaced by the overwhelming pressure of a top-tier leader that compels one to submit.
"Lin Zhou...who exactly are you?"
Su Qingge's voice trembled violently; she didn't even dare to go forward and hug the man who was so close to her.
Hearing his wife's call, tinged with fear, the coldness in Lin Zhou's eyes melted away like spring snow.
He held Nuonuo, who was still sobbing, and strode across the mess on the ground towards Su Qingge.
Without any hesitation, and without any attempt to continue the pretense of evasion.
Lin Zhou walked up to Su Qingge, supporting Nuonuo with one hand, and naturally wrapped his right arm around her slender waist.
He pulled her tightly into his broad, warm embrace.
"Don't be afraid, my wife. I am Lin Zhou, I was before, I am now, and I will always be."
The man's deep, mellow voice rang in her ears, carrying a strange, soothing magic.
Su Qingge leaned against his broad chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and her tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
"And what about them...?"
Su Qingge pointed to the respectful old man behind her and the row of black-clad bodyguards, her mind still a jumbled mess.
Lin Zhou didn't hide anything; his eyes became deep and serious.
"Wife, I'm sorry. For the past seven years, I've thought of myself as a penniless orphan. It wasn't until Uncle Chen found me today that I remembered everything from the past."
"I am actually the only son of the Lin family, a wealthy conglomerate in Beijing."
Lin Zhou lifted Nuonuo up in his arms and calmly dropped a bombshell.
"The car accident seven years ago was not an accident; it was a scheme orchestrated by my parents to protect me. They used the entire Lin family as bait to lure out the mastermind, allowing Uncle Chen to secretly take the Lin family's core offshore trust fund worth hundreds of billions overseas."
"I lost my memory due to a severe head injury, which is why I ended up on the streets delivering food."
Lin Zhou spoke in a calm tone, as if he were telling a story that had nothing to do with him.
But to Su Qingge's ears, it was like a magnitude 10 earthquake!
The Lin family conglomerate in Beijing?
A multi-billion dollar offshore trust fund?
Su Qingge felt that her brain's CPU had been completely burned out.
She was a native Beijing socialite. Although the Su family was now the richest family, how could she not have heard of the Lin family business empire that was so powerful and overwhelming back then?
That was an absolute overlord whom even her father, Su Zhentian, would show fear when he mentioned him!
The husband who picks up and drops off their daughter from school every day on his electric scooter is actually the sole heir to that terrifying empire?
Su Qingge looked down at the slightly faded canvas shoes on Lin Zhou's feet.
Then I glanced at the priceless bulletproof Rolls-Royces outside the corridor.
An extremely strong sense of absurdity and unreality instantly overwhelmed her.
She always thought she was marrying down.
She even planned to protect Lin Zhou for the rest of her life and work hard to earn money to support him.
Previously, when Zhou Lixing was pressing her in the conference room, all she could think about was how to protect Starry Sky Media and how to prevent Lin Zhou from being crushed by the behemoth that is Dynasty Entertainment.
Now the truth has come out.
The man she was desperately trying to protect turned out to be a billionaire tycoon whose every hair was thicker than the Zhou family's thigh.
His bank account had hundreds of billions of dollars in cash flow.
"So for the past few years... I've been supporting a billionaire?"
Su Qingge muttered to herself, her peach blossom eyes filled with a bewildered disbelief about life.
Lin Zhou was amused by his wife's extremely cute remark.
He was about to make a joke when Old Chen, who was standing not far away, walked over with great insight.
Old Chen's sharp eyes, which had seen countless people, quickly but politely sized up Su Qingge.
When he saw that the rumored eldest daughter of the Su family looked only with shock and not greed in the face of such enormous wealth, a look of heartfelt satisfaction flashed in Old Chen's eyes.
He straightened his crisp butler's uniform and walked up to Su Qingge.
Then, with his hands folded in front of him, he bent down with extremely standard and solemn movements.
This is a perfect 90-degree English aristocratic bow.
"This old servant, Chen De, greets the young mistress!"
With Old Chen's shout.
The dozens of top-tier black-clad bodyguards outside the door, exuding a murderous aura, turned around in unison to face Su Qingge, as if they had rehearsed a thousand times.
"Whoosh!"
Everyone knelt down on one knee in unison, their right fist pressed against their left chest, and they lowered their proud heads.
The sound waves exploded like thunder over the kindergarten.
"Your subordinate greets the young mistress!"
This scene is truly breathtaking.
The once arrogant kindergarten director of education now had his head banged on the ground, not even daring to glance at him.
Su Qingge had never seen such an exaggerated spectacle, the kind that only appears in gangster movies.
She was so frightened that she took half a step back and instinctively grabbed Lin Zhou's arm.
"Uncle Chen, please get up! Everyone, please get up too. There's no need for such a grand gesture!"
Two blushes rose on Su Qingge's fair cheeks, clearly showing that she was somewhat flattered.
She frantically tried to help Old Chen, but Lin Zhou smiled and held her hand.
Old Chen straightened up, his eyes filled with love and respect as he looked at Su Qingge.
"Young Madam, you were the only one who lent a helping hand to the young master when he was in trouble. If it weren't for your protection these past seven years, the young master and the little princess would probably be in grave danger long ago."
"You deserve this bow from the entire Lin family."
Old Chen's tone was incredibly sincere, without the slightest air of a wealthy family's butler.
Lin Zhou chuckled and handed Nuonuo to Su Qingge.
Then he stretched out his arms and hugged the mother and daughter tightly.
The familiar fragrance lingered around his nose, and Lin Zhou lowered his head to plant a deep kiss on Su Qingge's smooth forehead.
His eyes became gentler and more determined than ever before.
"Wife, Uncle Chen is right."
"When I lost my memory and became a penniless nobody, you married me without hesitation, despite the ridicule of the entire capital."
"It was you who shielded me from all the open and hidden attacks with your frail shoulders."
Lin Zhou gently stroked Su Qingge's slightly messy long hair with his slender fingers.
Although the voice was soft, it carried a powerful and authoritative quality.
"You used to protect me and give me a home to shelter me from the wind and rain."
"From today onwards, it's my turn to build an empire for you and your daughter."
"I will make everyone in this capital who looks down on you kneel at your feet and look up to you."
Upon hearing this powerful declaration, which was comparable to a vow of eternal love, Su Qingge's eyes instantly reddened.
All the grievances and fears that had accumulated during the business battles vanished completely at this moment.
She buried her face in Lin Zhou's neck and nodded vigorously.
She knew that her husband, who always pretended to be weak while actually being strong, was finally about to rise to prominence.
A warm atmosphere flowed between the family of three.
But the pungent smell of urine and blood in the infirmary still reminded Lin Zhou that the matter was not completely resolved.
The awful mother and son who bullied Nuonuo, and the arrogant kindergarten director, are still lying on the ground.
Lin Zhou released Su Qingge and gently patted her shoulder.
"Honey, take Nuonuo to the car outside and wait for me. What's about to happen is a bit dirty, don't let it offend your eyes."
Su Qingge nodded obediently.
Holding Nuonuo, she turned and walked towards the Rolls-Royce outside the door, escorted by several bodyguards.
He waited until his wife and daughter's figures completely disappeared from sight.
The gentleness on Lin Zhou's face vanished instantly, replaced by extreme coldness and violence.
He slowly turned his head.
Their gazes were like two cold, sharp swords, fixed on the kindergarten principal who was still lying on the ground in the corner, pretending to be dead and trembling.
He then glanced at the fat woman who had just been woken up by the bodyguard splashing her with a bucket of ice water.
The fat woman stared in terror at the room full of burly men in black, her teeth chattering.
Lin Zhou fiddled with the black and gold dragon-patterned ring on his right index finger.
A cruel, cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
His deep, deathly voice slowly echoed in the deathly silent infirmary.
"Now that we've laid our cards on the table, we're not going to pretend anymore."
"Uncle Chen, let's take care of some household chores first."
