Chapter 62: Linda's Suffering (Third Update)

  "...You're not someone who can't get married off...Besides, I'm still so young, right?" Zhao Tiezhu said pitifully.

  "Cut. I despise you."

  Another silence

  "What were you doing last night to get so drunk?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.

  A hint of sadness appeared in Linda's eyes.

  "Never mind."

  "My dad wants me to marry someone I don't like, and we just got engaged yesterday." Linda said suddenly.

  "What era is this, still like this?" Zhao Tiezhu shouted.

  "Hmph, you haven't been out in society and don't know its cruelty. My dad's company is facing a financial crisis, as long as I marry him, he'll help my dad get through this difficult time." Linda's face was unreadable.

  "Did your dad agree?"

  "He is my stepfather. We got engaged last night, and I was supposed to move in with him, but I told him I needed to come back home to pack my things, so I escaped first. Hehe"

  "Don't you like him?"

  "Don't like him. He's just a playboy."

  "Then don't marry him."

  "Marry me?"

  "Then you should marry him."

  "Go die. You're not a man."

  Linda shouted, slamming the pillow in her hand towards Zhao Tiezhu. Zhao Tiezhu didn't dodge, catching the pillow and saying: "If you don't like him, then there's no need to marry him. Your stepfather can sacrifice your happiness for his company, but you don't have to consider him."

  "My mom has it tough," Linda sighed. "My stepfather was never good to my mom, and if I didn't agree, I don't know what her life would be like from now on."

  "So you picked me?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.

  "Yes, I think so. Rather than giving it to that person for the first time, I'd rather give it to some random cat or dog on the street, maybe I'll even meet a hidden prince among the people and he can help me get rid of him. But then I met you... Ah..." Linda's tone was filled with disappointment.

  "What's the big deal, just ran into me, don't look down on people like that!! Tell brother about it, who is he, where does he live, what does his family do, brother will take you to teach him a lesson." Zhao Tiezhu's face was full of discontent.

  "Haha, just you? Don't laugh to death, you're just a little student, not even qualified to be stepped on. Thank you for your kindness, teacher." Linda smiled and pinched Zhao Tiezhu's face. But that smile was a bit desolate.

  Zhao Tiezhu's heart tightened and he said: "Speak up, who is it? I believe you."

  Linda stared blankly at the man in front of her, who suddenly exuded strong self-confidence. Although he was slender, that confidence and aura made her feel like she was facing a giant!

  His name is Lin Xiu, he's the general manager of a listed company under FJ and also the son of the chairman. You can't afford to mess with him.

  "Get changed and put on your good clothes, we're going to trample him with Brother," Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.

  Linda stared at the man, and for a moment she was stunned.

  The Jing Tian Building in the center of FJ City is the highest-grade office building in FJ. The 38th to 40th floors are home to Linshi Trading Company. This company was originally involved in foreign trade, but later allegedly established connections with leaders from a certain province and gradually developed into a large company. Although it can only be considered average within FJ Province, in FJ City, it is among the top, with assets reportedly reaching tens of billions.

  At this time, in the Lin's Trading Company, General Manager Lin Xiuzheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office with a gloomy face. Yesterday, he finally got engaged to Linda, thinking that he would be able to fulfill his wish last night, but unexpectedly, Linda ran back home and didn't even answer his calls until just now. How could this not make Lin Xiuzheng furious? Lin Xiuzheng always thought that he truly liked Linda, although after failing to pursue her, he used his connections to bring a lot of trouble to Linda's stepfather's company, eventually forcing her stepfather to marry Linda off to him. But wasn't everything he did for Linda?! Lin Xiuzheng threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground and trampled on it fiercely, then pressed the intercom to call his secretary. "Little Liu, come in."

  Not long after, a white-collar beauty with a good face and figure walked in.

  Lin Xiu picked up the remote control in his hand and closed the curtains on the window, then pulled the secretary into his arms. The secretary murmured a sound, but did not resist, apparently Lin Xiu had done this many times before.

  Even without taking off her clothes, she directly lifted up her skirt and took up arms.

  Before long, accompanied by Lin Xiu's low growl, Lin Xiu slowly leaned his body against the office desk. Liu secretary naturally squatted down and opened her small mouth to clean up all the filth. After that, Lin Xiu waved his hand, and Liu secretary walked out of the office with a bow.

  Zhao Tiezhu drove Linda's BMW Mini directly to the bottom of the Jing Tian Building, and Linda hesitated to get out of the car, saying: "Tiezhu, let's not go up, you can't beat him."

  "Look at you now, weren't you very fierce when you pushed me last night?" Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile, "Don't worry about it, just follow me up."

  Linda had no choice but to follow Zhao Tiezhu into the elevator.

  The elevator stopped on the 40th floor. After walking out of the elevator, Zhao Tiezhu walked to the front desk with a smile and asked: "Is Mr. Lin in?"

  The woman was surprisingly Liu's secretary from earlier, and she asked: "Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"

  "Tell him Linda has come to see him." Zhao Tiezhu said.

  "Okay." The secretary made a phone call, hummed a few times, and then said to Zhao Tiezhu, "Director Lin is waiting for you in the office."

  Lin Xiu was already dressed impeccably, a hint of a triumphant smile playing on his lips: "You weren't able to run away last night, were you? And yet here you are, crawling back to me with your tail between your legs. Hmph, just wait and see how I'll make you suffer in this office."

  A knock at the door was heard, Lin Xiu straightened up and said, "Come in."

  The door opened and Linda walked in. Lin Xiu's face had just cracked a smile, but then he saw Zhao Tiezhu following behind Linda.

  "Linda, what's this..." Lin Xiu said in puzzlement.

  "So you want to force Linda into marriage?" Zhao Tiezhu said calmly.

  "What is forced marriage? Linda willingly married me, didn't you, Linda?" Lin Xiu asked softly, looking at Linda.

  "Linda, you said, don't be afraid." Zhao Tiezhu also looked at Linda. If Linda really said she was willing, then Zhao Tiezhu would absolutely not interfere with this matter again.

  Linda gritted her teeth and looked at Zhao Tiezhu's encouraging gaze, as if she had made up her mind, and said: "No!"

  "Alright. As long as you're unwilling, I'll see who dares to force you." Zhao Tiezhu smiled and put his arm around Linda.

  Lin Xiu's face suddenly turned very ugly, he glared at Zhao Tiezhu and shouted: "Where did this little bastard come from? Linda, didn't your father already agree to our marriage?" Lin Xiu tried to use Linda's stepfather to coerce her.

  Linda had already given up, "He promised it was his business, he would marry himself, I didn't agree."

  "Fine, since you insist on being like that, then your stepfather's company is none of my concern. As for you, this little bastard, the Lin Corporation isn't so easy to get into."

  As he spoke, Lin Xiu pressed a red button under the table, and immediately the alarm of the Lin Security Department sounded.
