#225 - Chapter 225 Xiaolin, how long can I live?

The atmosphere became much more lively after the big shots left.

When those big shots were in the small hall, many people outside couldn't help but restrain themselves a bit.

Not daring to speak loudly, for fear of startling the celestial beings!

"Daddy!"

Lin Chen walked towards Lin Xiaoqian, and Lin Xiaoqian called out happily.

Xu Mengyao and the others were still eating at their table.

The big shots had tight schedules and ate relatively quickly, while the people in the outer hall ate much slower.

After all, the guests who came were all important figures, and they might be able to finalize projects at the dinner table.

"Husband."

Lin Chen approached and called out to Xu Mengyao.

"Wife, is Qianqian finished eating?"

"I'm finished, I'll take Qianqian. You can eat slowly."

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Xu Mengyao nodded: "She's finished. But I'm afraid you won't have time to take Qianqian for now."

Song Qingquan walked over at this time.

He said with a smile: "Young Master Lin, I know you have a great capacity for alcohol. You haven't had enough yet, have you? I've been entrusted by everyone at our table to invite you over for a few drinks."

Lin Chen touched Lin Xiaoqian's small head: "Qianqian, how about Daddy plays with you later?"

"Daddy, don't get drunk, okay?"

Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice.

"No problem."

Lin Chen said with a smile, "Wife, President Song has warmly invited me, I'll go have a few more drinks with them."

"Okay."

Xu Mengyao nodded.

Lin Chen and the others walked towards Song Qingquan's table, and someone at Xu Mengyao's table asked curiously, "President Xu, has your husband met some important people?"

"Perhaps."

Xu Mengyao said ambiguously.

Another person said: "President Liu, you shouldn't ask too much. If it involves top figures, I'm afraid President Xu can't just say anything."

"President Xu, I'm just asking casually."

"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about business."

The woman who was just curious quickly said.

At another table, Pan Jia frowned deeply.

She thought Lin Chen didn't have much influence, but Lin Chen was actually able to sit at the same table with Elder Song and other big shots.

The women at the same table as Xu Mengyao were also much more important than the women at her table.

It was obvious that Lin Chen and his group were much more important in the eyes of the Song family.

She wanted to take Xu Mengyao abroad and introduce her to other men, which had greatly offended Lin Chen.

She and the Song family probably couldn't cooperate anymore.

"What a stroke of luck!"

"Lin Chen is just good at playing basketball, could it be that he got the appreciation of some big shot because of this?"

Pan Jia thought to herself.

At Lin Chen's table, he and the others had a drink.

"Young Master Lin, I'll toast you first."

Song Qingquan raised his glass and said with a smile.

Lin Chen: "President Song, I'm younger than you, I should be toasting you. Isn't it inappropriate for you to toast me?"

Song Qingquan laughed: "Ability is more important than age. You are more capable than me, it's very appropriate for me to toast you."

"I'll drink it first as a sign of respect."

Song Qingquan said, drinking it all in one gulp.

Lin Chen naturally also finished the wine in his glass.

This scene was seen by the others at the same table, and even some people at other tables.

They were wondering in their hearts, what is Lin Chen's background?

"Young Master Lin, I'll also toast you."

A big shot to Lin Chen's left said, his assets were considerable, but compared to the Song family, they were still far behind. Song Qingquan was so polite to Lin Chen.

"Young Master Lin, I'll toast you."

"Young Master Lin—"

The others at the same table toasted him one after another.

After they finished toasting, Song Shize came over with a wine glass: "Young Master Lin, would you like to sit at our table too? The people at our table also want to get to know you."

Lin Chen and Song Shize had a drink.

He excused himself and went to Song Shize's table.

"Dad, are you alright?"

Lin Chen sat down next to Xu Guofeng.

Xu Guofeng was already seven parts drunk, he rubbed his forehead and said: "I drank a little too much, President Song and the others were too enthusiastic in urging me to drink."

"You drink with them, I'll take a break."

Lin Chen was invited to drink in the small hall, and the people at Xu Guofeng's table were all shrewd people, they would definitely make Xu Guofeng feel their enthusiasm.

"Dad, then you should rest well."

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Time passed by minute by minute, and at Lin Chen's table, Song Shize and the others were drunk and passed out by Lin Chen.

Of course, they were not completely drunk.

Getting completely drunk and making a fool of themselves in front of so many people?

"Young Master Lin, you have a great capacity for alcohol."

"We admit defeat, let's just stop here."

A big shot begged for mercy.

He was also a battle-tested warrior of alcohol, but Lin Chen drank alcohol like water, he really couldn't compare.

Lin Chen said with a smile: "Okay, let's just stop here, if you guys continue, I estimate I'll get drunk too."

Song Shize and the others looked at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen didn't look like he was going to get drunk at all.

Everyone got up, and Song Shize glanced at his second brother's side, he was a little puzzled, his younger brother Song Shikang didn't even have a drink with Lin Chen.

Could it be that Song Shikang has an opinion on Lin Chen?

Helping the Wu family was suggested by Song Shikang, Song Shikang is his younger brother, so he naturally helped before.

It was also normal for him to end it later when the situation was not right.

"Elder Song, we'll take our leave first."

"Take care of your health, Elder Song."

Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao arrived at Elder Song's courtyard, and Lin Xiaoqian later came to Elder Song's courtyard to play again.

Elder Song: "Little Lin, I have something to ask you."

Lin Chen went to his study alone with Elder Song.

Elder Song sat down, his expression was very tired.

"Little Lin, you sit too, tell me the truth, is my current physical condition very bad?"

Elder Song asked.

Lin Chen: "Elder Song, don't think too much, you should have had a checkup, your body doesn't have any major problems."

Elder Song shook his head.

"Sometimes machines can't be trusted. A person is a whole, every part doesn't have major problems, doesn't mean there are no problems when put together."

"Tell me about it, I want to know."

"Our Song family is such a big family, if I suddenly disappear, the whole family may have problems."

Lin Chen was silent.

Elder Song stared at Lin Chen and said: "Little Lin, I'm mentally prepared, don't worry, I can handle it."

Lin Chen sighed: "Elder Song, within a month, your life force will be completely exhausted."

Elder Song's face changed.

He didn't expect death to be so close.

"Little Lin, can't it be cured?"

Elder Song took a deep breath and asked.

Lin Chen shook his head: "Only illnesses can be treated, Elder Song, I have no way to deal with your situation."

"What if I take some tonics?"

Lin Chen: "You can't tolerate tonics now, taking tonics will also consume your body's vitality, your body won't replenish much vitality now."

Elder Song was silent for a while.

"Understood."

"Little Lin, thank you."

Lin Chen hesitated and said: "Elder Song, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."

Elder Song squeezed out a little smile on his face: "I'm about to die, what else can't I accept?"

"Tell me."

Lin Chen said: "Elder Song, Second Master Song plans to wait until you're gone, to join forces with the Song family head to squeeze out Third Master Song, and then compete with the Song family head for the position of family head."

He originally didn't plan to say this now.

But Elder Song asked him to drink with the big shots, and asked them to take care of him, Elder Song placed a heavy bet on him.

Elder Song has a high degree of trust in him.

"Little Lin, are you sure?"

Elder Song said with a solemn expression.

Lin Chen said: "I'm sure. There's no benefit for me to spread rumors about Second Master Song to cause internal strife in the Song family."

"The Song family's strength is beneficial to me."
