Lin Group, Staff Dormitory.
"The press conference will be held tomorrow."
"Once the [Beauty Cream] hits the market, the Lin family will undoubtedly enter a period of true prosperity."
"As long as we seize this opportunity, we'll rise to the top and soar to great heights. Haha..."
"By then, that unfilial son will be utterly dumbfounded, regretting every second that he transferred the shares to me. Hahaha..."
"........"
The room echoed with Lin Jianjun's maniacal laughter.
Hearing these words, Lin Hao and his mother exchanged a glance, both seeing the excitement and anticipation in each other's eyes.
Finally...
Is the suffering finally about to end?!
All their scheming and effort hadn't been in vain.
As long as the Lin family ascends to the ranks of top-tier families.
They would truly become part of the elite, basking in the envy of thousands.
"But you and Hao'er have suffered these past days, enduring this wretched place with me."
Lin Jianjun took Bai Yuelan's manicured hand in his, feeling deeply sorry for her.
"What are you saying?"
Bai Yuelan, blushing shyly, held Lin Jianjun's hand tightly, intertwining their fingers.
"We're a family! As long as the three of us are together, anywhere we are is home!"
"Yes, yes. The three of us will always be together. We are the happiest family of three in the world."
Looking at his beloved wife, Lin Jianjun's eyes were filled with love, and faint traces of emotional blood tears began to form.
"Oh, come on~~"
"Daddy, Mommy, stop with the public display of affection; it's killing me with cringe. I'm just an innocent young boy~~~"
Hearing this.
Bai Yuelan turned her head, playfully glaring at Lin Hao.
"You, you always know how to ruin a good moment."
"Hehehe..."
"But Daddy's right! We're a family, the happiest family."
Lin Hao stuck out his tongue, delicately placing a finger on his lips as he giggled.
"Family? Yes, Xiao Hao is right. We're a family that will always love and support each other."
Illiterate in English, Lin Jianjun used his clumsy pronunciation, making Lin Hao and Bai Yuelan laugh uncontrollably.
At this moment.
The humble staff dormitory was filled with the laughter of family, warm and harmonious.
It was a picture of a happy and loving family.
The rest of the evening was spent cleaning the house, having dinner, trying on formal attire, and going to bed...
The night passed uneventfully.
…..
The next day.
Inside the staff dormitory.
The three of them, Lin Jianjun included, woke up early with dark circles under their eyes.
Accustomed to sleeping in a luxurious villa, they couldn't fall asleep in the cramped little room.
Despite the sleepless night, the three were still brimming with energy and smiles.
Because after so many setbacks.
Today was finally their turning point...
...ヽ( ̄▽ ̄)? Cue the narrative filler line...
Press conference venue.
People came and went, and all around were heads as far as the eye could see.
Reporters from major media outlets had flocked to the event, carrying cameras and wandering around, waiting for the press conference to begin.
Backstage at the venue.
"Daddy, I'm a little nervous. It's my first time attending such a large press conference."
"This will be on TV. I'm really afraid I'll mess up and embarrass you."
Lin Hao, dressed in a white suit with matching white shoes and gold-rimmed glasses, appeared refined and gentle.
At this moment.
His face was a mixture of nervousness, anticipation, and excitement.
"Yeah! Hubby, ヽ(.>Д<)o゜ I'm also feeling a bit nervous~~~"
Beside Lin Hao stood Bai Yuelan, dressed in a black evening gown with a gold necklace, exuding the elegance of a wealthy lady.
She too was feeling anxious.
She had been waiting for this day for a long time, ever since before that woman had passed away...
Waiting even when she moved into the Lin family three years ago...
Yet in the eyes of outsiders, she still had no status or recognition and couldn't hold her head high in Magic City.
But after today, everyone would know that she...
Bai Yuelan, was the mistress of the Lin family, and the future matriarch of a top-tier elite family!!!
"Hahaha..."
"You two, just relax. I've got everything under control; you just need to show your faces."
"Today, not only will I announce the [Beauty Cream] to the public, but I'll also restore your reputations as my wife and son."
"From now on, the entire upper echelon of Magic City will know you two, recognize you as my wife and son, and no one will dare to look down on you again."
"......."
Seeing the worry in Lin Hao and Bai Yuelan's eyes, Lin Jianjun, with his slicked-back hair and black suit, confidently waved his hand.
Confidently exuding a kingly dominance.
He was brimming with confidence about the long-awaited day of the Lin family's rise.
The only thing that left him slightly dissatisfied was...
His financial embarrassment.
Whether it was his black suit or the luxurious attire on Lin Hao and Bai Yuelan, all of it had been rented through pieced-together online loans.
Even this morning, he had almost been refused a taxi ride for not having enough money.
These humiliating incidents made Lin Jianjun harbor even greater resentment toward a certain unfilial son.
If it weren't for that unfilial son, the most important day of his life might have been perfectly complete...
"Hmph! Just wait and see! Then regret it all you want!"
"I'll lead the Lin family step by step to the very top."
"And you... will spend your life in bitter regret, full of remorse..."
Thinking of Lin Xuan's pained and resentful expression upon learning of the Lin family's rise.
Lin Jianjun's lips couldn't help but curl into a sinister smile...
At this moment.
The Lin family's press conference.
Had also caught the attention of many elite families in Magic City.
Among those paying the closest attention...
The Bai family, in the reception hall.
Bai Jinglong and his family of six were all present.
They were watching the live broadcast on a large screen, anxiously waiting for the press conference to begin.
"I hope the Lin family can turn things around this time and regain their glory."
"If they can rise with the [Beauty Cream], our Bai family will reap immense benefits from it."
Sitting in the main seat.
The head of the family, Bai Jinglong, was breathing heavily, witnessing this historic moment.
He seemed to already see the vision of the Bai family rising quickly by leeching off the Lin family's success...
Sitting beside him.
Was Bai Susu, snuggling in her mother's arms, her large eyes blinking curiously as she watched the live broadcast.
"Uncle and Aunt seem like they're about to announce something big?"
"I wonder if Brother Lin Xuan has heard about Uncle's press conference today?"
"I should let him know. After all, Uncle is his father! Even if Brother Lin Xuan doesn't say it out loud, he must care deep down."
"........"
Thinking this.
Bai Susu took out the latest white Xiaomi phone.
She found the contact "Gentle Big Brother" in her WeChat list and shared the live broadcast link with him...
