Lin Mo's expression turned slightly cold as he looked at the incoming call.
Without saying anything, he immediately answered.
"Hello."
The call had just connected when a nervous voice sounded from the other end.
"Chairman Lin, I'm terribly sorry!"
"My secretary didn't know it was your call. I sincerely apologize."
Lin Mo snorted coldly.
"Hmph."
"I need some vehicles tomorrow to be used as wedding cars."
"Make the necessary arrangements. I'll be at the company in twenty minutes to inspect the preparations."
"Yes, Chairman Lin!"
After saying that, Lin Mo hung up the phone.
Watching the entire exchange, Xu Shan was completely confused.
The way Lin Mo had spoken didn't sound like someone borrowing cars at all.
Instead, it sounded as if he were giving orders to a subordinate.
Unable to hold back his curiosity, Xu Shan asked,
"Linzi, what's going on?"
"Oh, nothing."
"I just asked someone to prepare the cars."
"Let's head to the company now."
Although Xu Shan still had plenty of doubts, he followed Lin Mo outside.
Before long, the two arrived at the restaurant entrance.
"How are we getting there?"
"Taking the subway?"
Xu Shan asked.
"No need."
"I drove here."
Xu Shan paused for a moment before grinning.
"Wow! Linzi, you've been doing pretty well lately!"
"You even bought a car?"
"What kind of car is it?"
Lin Mo merely smiled without answering.
Instead, he pulled out his key fob and casually pressed a button.
Beep! Beep!
Instantly, the headlights of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan parked by the roadside lit up.
Xu Shan: ???
For a moment, his brain completely stopped working.
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan...
Belonged to Lin Mo?
Just moments ago, he had been talking about how unbelievably wealthy some college graduates were nowadays.
Who would have thought that the owner of the Cullinan was standing right beside him?
And that person was his former roommate.
Xu Shan stared blankly at Lin Mo.
"Holy crap!"
"Linzi, this Cullinan is yours?"
"Yep."
Lin Mo smiled.
"Get in."
After saying that, he opened the driver's door and sat down.
Still dazed, Xu Shan climbed into the passenger seat.
Looking around the luxurious interior, he couldn't help but swallow nervously.
"Lin... Linzi..."
"Is this the top-of-the-line Cullinan?"
"Of course."
"Gulp..."
Xu Shan swallowed hard.
Then, as if suddenly realizing something, he laughed.
"You're incredible."
"So you're working for a car rental company now?"
"Is this your company car?"
"Aren't you worried about scratching it?"
At that moment, Xu Shan had already reached his own conclusion.
In his mind, Lin Mo must have joined some high-end vehicle leasing company.
After all, that would explain how he could help arrange wedding cars.
Hearing this, Lin Mo simply smiled without correcting him.
Technically, Xu Shan wasn't entirely wrong.
The company wasn't a leasing company—it was a car sales group.
And Lin Mo wasn't an employee.
He was one of its major shareholders.
But after rounding things up, Xu Shan's guess wasn't completely off.
Soon, Lin Mo started the engine skillfully and headed straight toward Yongda Holdings Group.
Meanwhile, at Yongda Holdings Group.
Inside the conference room.
After ending the call, Zhang Yaohua finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness."
"Chairman Lin doesn't seem too angry."
However, standing beside him, Cai Wen was already panicking.
He had witnessed the entire situation.
His face was pale with fear.
The person whose calls he had hung up on...
Was actually the company's newest major shareholder?
At that moment, Cai Wen felt as if the sky were collapsing.
Zhang Yaohua's expression also darkened.
He looked at Cai Wen and shouted angrily,
"Cai Wen!"
"Do you have any idea what kind of disaster you've just caused?"
"Mr. Zhang!"
"I—I really didn't know it was Chairman Lin!"
Cai Wen hurriedly explained.
However, Zhang Yaohua's expression remained ice cold.
"You're fired."
"Go complete your resignation procedures immediately."
The words struck like a bolt of lightning.
Cai Wen instantly panicked.
He understood exactly how important his position was.
As the General Manager's secretary at Yongda Holdings Group, he earned an annual salary of over 500,000 yuan.
If he were dismissed now, it would leave a permanent stain on his résumé.
Being fired from a company like Yongda Holdings would severely affect his future career prospects.
"Mr. Zhang, please—"
"Don't make me repeat myself."
Zhang Yaohua's voice was filled with anger.
If he hadn't personally checked the number...
The consequences would have been unimaginable.
At that point, even he might have been implicated.
Cai Wen's face turned pale.
In the end, he could only lower his head and leave the conference room in despair.
After Cai Wen departed, Zhang Yaohua no longer paid him any attention.
Instead, he looked around at the executives and spoke urgently.
"Next, we need to deal with the wedding car arrangements requested by Chairman Lin."
"Since Chairman Lin needs wedding cars, we must mobilize every available resource immediately."
He turned toward one of the executives.
"President Li."
"How many Rolls-Royce Phantoms do we currently have available in Shanghai?"
President Li answered promptly.
"Not many."
"Only six."
Zhang Yaohua frowned.
"Not enough."
"Immediately arrange transfers from Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"I want eighteen vehicles assembled before midnight tonight."
"Understood!"
President Li didn't dare delay.
He immediately began making calls.
Afterward, Zhang Yaohua checked the time on his phone.
"Alright."
"The rest of you, come downstairs with me."
"We'll personally welcome Chairman Lin."
"Yes, sir!"
Twenty minutes later.
The entrance of Yongda Holdings Group.
All of the company's middle and senior management were already waiting outside.
At that moment, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan slowly pulled up.
The instant the vehicle stopped, Zhang Yaohua hurried forward and personally opened the door.
As Lin Mo stepped out, all the executives bowed respectfully.
In unison, they called out:
"Welcome, Chairman Lin!"
"We appreciate your inspection visit!"
The moment those words were spoken, Xu Shan, who had just stepped out of the passenger seat, froze completely.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
His mind went blank.
Chairman... Lin?
The Chairman they were talking about...
Was Lin Mo?
