CHAPTER 498 DON'T WORRY, I'M A FAST RUNNER

She hadn't forgotten about that very, very outstanding girl who might come to snatch her husband away anytime.

Lin Yuzhen wasn't going to let that happen.

When Jiang Ning saw how Lin Yuzhen was behaving like a child, he just laughed and didn't say anything. He didn't interrupt her and walked out of the room.

Of course Jiang Ning knew why Su Mei's relatives wanted to come.

Lin Group was now expanding at a rapid speed and Lin Group was the most famous company in all of Donghai. It didn't matter whether you lived in the city, the countryside or even a village - anyone with a child working in Lin Group would celebrate.

Su Hong had insisted that her mother with mobility problems come to visit the Lin family. Even an idiot could tell what she was after.

Su Mei was watching TV on the sofa in the living room.

When she saw Jiang Ning come downstairs, she looked up and asked, "Is Yuzhen busy?"

"Yup. She's working on the company expansion plans. They're very important so I don't want to disturb her."

"Come over here and sit down with me."

Su Mei pushed the tidbits to Jiang Ning, then picked up an apple and said, "I'll pare an apple for you.”

"Thanks Mum."

Jiang Ning sat down and leaned back on the sofa. He had a tired expression and he frowned as he massaged his own temples and exhaled deeply.

He looked like he had just travelled a few thousand miles earlier. His eyes were bloodshot and he was exhausted.

"Are you very tired?" Su Mei felt her heart go out to him.

Jiang Ning had contributed so much to the family.

If not for Jiang Ning, her family would probably never have the chance to live so happily.

"A little," Jiang Ning squeezed a smile out. "But as long as our family is happy, all the work is worth it."

"You're such a good boy.”

Su Mei felt tears come to her eyes."

"I used to hate seeing you so much, do you think..."

"That was because you didn't understand what sort of person I was and you were afraid I would bully Yuzhen. Now you know all about me, and you know only Yuzhen gets to bully me," said Jiang Ning with a laugh. Belonging to .

"She wouldn't dare!" Su Mei scoffed. "If Yuzhen bullies you, tell me and I'll teach her a lesson!"

Jiang Ning burst out laughing. He wondered if Lin Yuzhen was sneezing away now.

"Did you meet with any trouble when you went to Shenghai?"

"A little," Jiang Ning sighed. "Lin Group wants to expand, and they'll have to enter a big city like Shengcheng sooner or later. I went to test the market there and I accidentally offended some people."

Su Mei's expression immediately became nervous.

"Lin Group has been able to expand so quickly and so well only beause Dad and Yuzhen have both put in so much effort. Look at Yuzhen - after she gets home, she still has to work till so late," said Jiang Ning with an upset voice. "I want to help to share her burden, and I won't be afraid even if there are twenty or thirty people running after me to beat me up."

If the Gao siblings heard this, they would have fallen to their knees in shock. Who dared to run after Jiang Ning to beat him up?

That was basically suicide.

But when Su Mei heard these words, she felt her heart tremble.

"So many people ran after you to beat you up? Are you hurt anywhere?" asked Su Mei anxiously as she hurriedly stood up to check.

"Don't worry, I'm a fast runner."

Jiang Ning even looked like he was still scared.

"That's how it is in business, and you'll definitely end up offending some people along the way. But Lin Group is Yuzhen's dream, so I want to make it come true for her and I don't want others to dash her dreams."

He looked at Su Mei and shook his head. "Mum, you don't know about this, but there was a director in the office who went against the rules and secretly arranged for his younger sister to join the

company, so she didn't have to do anything and still got paid. It impacted the company negatively and even affected one of the company's projects. Yuzhen was so angry, she kept crying."

Su Mei never asked about company matters. Lin Wei and Lin Yuzhen wouldn't tell her either, since Su Mei was always focused on taking care of the home.

But after hearing all this from Jiang Ning, she realized that her family was working very hard and it was tough to weather all these storms.

She definitely wouldn't allow anyone to destroy any of this. She wasn't going to let anyone affect the bliss that her family deserved.

"Mum, don't worry, I'm young, so I'll be ok after a good night's rest.”

Jiang Ning saw that Su Mei had finished paring the apple, so he took it from her and started eating it. "Mum, go to bed early. I'll go to bed after eating the apple too, I'm a little sleepy."

He then ate the apple and dragged his heavy footsteps up the stairs at the same time.

Su Mei felt her heart ache as she saw how exhausted Jiang Ning looked.

Meanwhile.

At Su Hong's house.

She was rummaging through her closet and there was glee written all over her face.

"Which dress looks nicer on me?"

Su Hong stood in front of the mirror and put one dress after another against herself.

"We're not attending some banquet, why do you bother at all."

Xu Ming snorted loudly.

He had been so shocked by Lin Yuzhen the last time. He never expected Lin Group to be doing so well now. Even those high ranking government officials were so

polite to Lin Yuzhen.

He thought that he would get a dressing down when he went to work, but the highest ranking official of his office actually came over to say hello to him the next day!
