Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 83: Chapter 83 Help (Mass Release Chapter 2)

The Lin Family came to this banquet with a total of three people. Aside from Lin Mengchen, who was thrown out at the beginning, and Lin Zike, who had been muddling through since they arrived, only Lin Mengyao had the most to gain. By the time she left the Yun Family Mansion, her handbag was already stuffed with the business cards of various business tycoons.

"Xu Ke, can you tell me why Mr. Yun and Mr. Jin are so polite to you? What is your true identity?"

After carefully placing the received business cards in her handbag, Lin Mengyao raised her serious face and asked Xu Ke with an obstinate and earnest look.

Xu Ke had previously told her he was doing business with a friend, and she believed it. But everything that happened today shattered her existing perception of Xu Ke. Even if Xu Ke truly was a business prodigy and his business was extraordinarily successful, it would never be enough for figures like Mr. Yun and Mr. Jin, who were at the peak of Luo City, to be so polite to him, right? Moreover, everyone in Luo City knew about Mr. Yun’s favoritism toward Yun Rulan, yet today, even though Xu Ke caused her some grievance, Mr. Yun didn’t show the slightest intention of pursuing it. More importantly, she recalled how her grandfather insisted on her marrying Xu Ke before their marriage; that was the first time her grandfather forced her to do something.

If she picked out just one of these matters, she could have comforted herself that perhaps they just admired some quality in Xu Ke. But now these matters had come together, leaving Lin Mengyao no longer able to deceive herself by saying Xu Ke was just a poor boy without any background. A truly penniless boy absolutely wouldn’t remain so calm when praised by influential figures like Xu Ke did.

Faced with Lin Mengyao’s probing, Xu Ke got stumped. Today he showed all this simply to tell Lin Mengyao that he had the ability to protect her, but he didn’t intend to reveal his secret identity so soon. Since inheriting the Xu Family’s vast fortune, he hadn’t been idle but had been investigating certain matters.

the Xu Family saw the accidental deaths of his parents, followed by the passing of his grandfather and uncle’s family. As of today, besides himself, who had been cast out of the Xu Family, all direct bloodlines of the Xu Family had died in these three years. Xu Ke couldn’t believe
