The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Zhang Lin had been forcefully coerced by Xu Hao into calling him "Dad", and it was Zhang Lin who had led the collusion with the Wu Corporation. Since Xu Hao was able to dig up so much dirt on him, he definitely knew about that episode as well.

Was he still looking to settle the score with him?

Zhang Lin was now frightened that Xu Hao would continue to give him trouble!

But Xu Hao, sitting beside Zhang Lin and observing his tense demeanor, merely smiled faintly, "President Zhang, don't worry. As long as you all resign willingly, I'm not one to ruthlessly pursue a vendetta. After all, you are Ruyan's uncle, right? If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can still come to me for help, Uncle, Auntie, all of you too!"

A classic case of a stick followed by a carrot!

Despite the deep hatred Liu Fei and Zhang Lin had, they had to put on an extremely grateful façade on the surface, "Yes, yes, Xiao Hao is right, after all, we are all family!"

The group secretly sighed in relief, hastily showering him with flattery.

They had to flatter him, for their fates were in Xu Hao's hands.

Upon hearing what Xu Hao had said, Zhang Lin's heart stirred. He recalled what Wu Yu had mentioned before: since he failed to secure a deal through Liu Ruyan, Wu Yu wanted Zhang Lin's daughter to keep him company.

The Wu Corporation was quite wary of Xu Hao, weren't they? Perhaps he could ask Xu Hao to speak on his behalf?

After a slight hesitation, Zhang Lin began in a dejected tone, "Xiao Hao, that..." He hesitated several times before mustering the courage to speak.

Up front, Liu Ruyan was organizing the new leadership team, and Xu Hao couldn't really understand their discussion. "President Zhang, do you have any other concerns?" Xu Hao turned to look at Zhang Lin. With just a glance, Zhang Lin shuddered all over and almost instinctively blurted out, "Xu Hao… Daddy... I have a favor to ask of you!"

Snort!

Some of the company shareholders sitting around Zhang Lin and Xu Hao almost choked on their soda upon hearing Zhang Lin's words.

Oh my goodness!

By right, shouldn't Zhang Lin be calling Xu Hao his nephew? And now he's calling Xu Hao "Daddy"?

Xu Hao was also taken aback. Back at the Liu Family Villa, Zhang Lin had called Xu Hao "Daddy" just because of a bet. Now in front of so many people, Zhang Lin was taking the initiative to call him "Daddy", which implied that Zhang Lin was indeed in trouble.

"Oh, please go ahead and tell me, what's the matter?" Xu Hao glanced at Liu Ruyan on the stage. Now that Zhang Lin and the others were resigning, Liu Ruyan could take full control of the corporation, so Xu Hao didn't really need to push them to their doom.

Zhang Lin hastily said, "Wu Yu, Young Master Wu... that guy, failing to get Ruyan, actually said he wants my high school daughter Zhang Shishi to accompany him. Shishi is still a child, please save your cousin..."

Xu Hao had thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be such a minor issue. To Xu Hao, it was just a matter of saying a word, "Okay, if Wu Yu dares to make a move, call me anytime, I really want to see how many guts he has!"

...

At today's shareholders' meeting, Zhang Lin, Liu Fei, and others had originally planned to hold a non-violent plebiscite to ostracize Liu Ruyan.

As a result of Xu Hao's tactics, there was a major reshuffle at the company, and Zhang Lin, Liu Fei, and others voluntarily resigned, with an ensuing redistribution of the company shares... Xu Hao secured 10% of the company's stocks, and Liu Ruyan now truly had full control over the company.

Two hours had passed by the time a meeting concluded.

In Liu Ruyan's office, as soon as the two of them entered, she tenderly embraced Xu Hao, "Xu Hao, thank you!"

This Xu Hao, not only had he saved her in times of personal crisis, but he had also saved the company during its corporate troubles and had been her support. Liu Ruyan's fondness for Xu Hao grew stronger by the day, and now, even in the office, if Xu Hao wanted to do something to her, Liu Ruyan was most likely not going to refuse.

After all, she was his wife; what Xu Hao did to her was all normal, wasn't it?

The atmosphere in the room grew a bit heated, with Liu Ruyan wrapping her arms around Xu Hao's neck, and her lips eagerly met his... Just as they were engrossed in their intense moment, the door suddenly creaked open, and Secretary Zhang Qian entered with a folder in her hands, "President Liu... Ah, I didn't see anything..."

Zhang Qian popped her head in, saw such a scene, and quickly withdrew.

Zhang Qian was already in her early thirties, but she maintained herself well, looking as young as an eighteen-year-old girl. It was just unfortunate that she had met a jerk; she had been divorced from her ex-husband for several years now, and suddenly seeing Liu Ruyan and Xu Hao being intimate made her heart feel like it was about to leap out.

In the room, Liu Ruyan and Xu Hao calmly separated, Liu Ruyan tidying her disheveled hair, "Secretary Zhang, come in!"

While speaking, Liu Ruyan glanced at Xu Hao with a blush on her face, "I'm so embarrassed, it's all your fault!"

Xu Hao looked helpless, "Wife, you can't blame me for this, can you? It was clearly you who initiated it!"

Zhang Qian was there to report on various items of work; Xu Hao staying would be of no use, and it was already past four o'clock. Zhao Feng had mentioned that the location for the class dinner was at the best Royal Hotel in Jing'an, and it was scheduled for five-thirty in the afternoon.

Xu Hao stood up, intending to leave, "Ruyan, I need to step out for a bit, you guys go ahead and talk!"

Liu Ruyan said gently, "Xu Hao, shall we have dinner together tonight?"

Previously, although Liu Ruyan was not satisfied with Xu Hao and had never allowed him to touch her, she didn't really dislike him. Now, after having gone through so much together, Liu Ruyan was increasingly satisfied with him.

"Tonight? Let's not for now, we have an alumni gathering. How about tomorrow? I'll take you for a big meal tomorrow!" Xu Hao winked at Liu Ruyan, left the president's office, and took the elevator to the ground floor.

As soon as Xu Hao exited the company doors, he saw the security team leader Sun Hao, along with five or six of Sun Hao's lackeys, all wielding clubs, looking menacing as they waited at the entrance. Upon seeing Xu Hao appear, they swarmed around him, "You son of a bitch, you dare to show up? Liu Ruyan is not here to protect you now, huh?"

The bruised and bandaged leader, Sun Hao, pointed at Xu Hao and called his men to action, "Get him, pound him to death! My aunt said that from now on, the company won't carry the Liu name anymore, what's there to be afraid of!"

The results of the company's top-level meeting had not been announced yet, so Sun Hao did not know the specifics.

Sun Hao had previously been beaten up by Xu Hao and had also been thrashed by Da Zhuang and A Bao. He was practically going mad, so he had spent the afternoon gathering his brothers, ready to take revenge.

Confronted with this situation, Xu Hao snorted coldly, "Captain Sun, are you still waiting for your aunt to take control of the company? I'm really scared..." Xu Hao taunted, his eyes filled with disdain.

With his club thumping on the ground, Sun Hao laughed, "Scared, huh? Ha, spit!" As he spoke, Sun Hao spat a thick gob on the ground, "If you're scared, lick up the spit from the ground, then kneel and beg for mercy, and I might spare you today, haha!"
