Chapter 129: Unable to Help
A kind heart does not necessarily yield good returns!
Lin Hao, with good intentions, was greeted by a torrent of abuse, making him feel infuriated just thinking about it. He has now truly seen the faces of the Su Family.
Therefore, he feels indifferent because such a trivial matter is not going to deter him.
Su Dingfang and Su Muyu couldn't get through to him on the phone, and now they realize the situation is quite serious.
Everyone knows now that Director Lin from the National Development and Reform Commission is fully responsible for the Red Era Group's project implementation, and Vice President Liao Jiarong has also entrusted many matters to Lin Hao.
If they can't hold onto Lin Hao, the Su Family will miss the chance for an economic boom and will completely decline.
"Dad, what should we do now?" Su Muyu and her brother looked at their father.
"No worries, I'll call our second brother." Su Dingzhang dialed the number.
Su Dingfang knew Peng Yunyan had taken benefits from the eldest sister-in-law, attempting to pressure Lin Hao into agreeing to help, but unfortunately, she only ruined things beyond repair.
Now, relying solely on humiliation and abuse to make Lin Hao submit, that would be truly ridiculous!
Su Dingzhang is also too narrow-minded; he previously said everything wouldn't be a problem if the project was secured, but suddenly changed his attitude in less than three days. This untrustworthy person would definitely make Lin Hao refuse further talk with them.
The bright prospects of the Su Family have been utterly ruined by these shortsighted fools.
Su Dingfang answered the phone and asked gravely, "Brother, what's the matter now?" This chapter is from the collection at M-VL-EM-PYR.
"Where's Lin Hao? Where did he go?" Su Dingzhang asked in return.
"He went upstairs to take a shower. Just say what you need to." Su Dingfang asked indifferently.
"Second brother, we indeed didn't consider things well earlier. Please let Lin Hao know we accept his terms and tomorrow Mu Yu will take him to see the villa." Su Dingzhang said solemnly.
"Brother, your thinking is too small; Lin Hao already said he'd handle these matters himself. Keep the villa for your family to live in instead." Su Dingfang sneered repeatedly.
"Second brother, we really did make a mistake about this. Could you talk to Lin Hao and see if he can help us get a project?" Su Dingzhang started to panic.
"I already told you before; Lin Hao was the first to reach out to you, sincerely wanting to assist the Su Family, but what did you do? Breaking promises, moral blackmail, trying to surpass him—now he is completely disappointed! Just now, I checked his phone, full of calls from presidents, likely a dozen, any of whom would agree to his terms. You've lost your chance." Su Dingfang said gravely.
"Second brother, we really messed up. Please, as siblings, help us out!" Su Dingzhang was truly flustered now.
So many presidents called Lin Hao, each having economic power not weaker than the Su Family. Any president can easily offer a villa and upscale office buildings.
This benefit was initially for the Su Family, but now, unwilling to part with a villa, they have thoroughly angered Lin Hao.
"I'm also helpless now; handle it yourselves." Su Dingfang firmly refused and hung up the phone.
Su Dingzhang was utterly dumbfounded now!
"Dad, what's going on? Say something!" Su Muyang asked anxiously.
"You shortsighted fool! If it weren't for your unwillingness to part with that villa, none of this would have happened, and now Lin Hao has completely given up on us." Su Dingzhang cursed in anger, almost slapping him.
"Dad, didn't you also think giving a villa wasn't worthwhile back then?" Su Muyang felt very aggrieved.
"If you hadn't spread your nonsense here, would I have been influenced by you? Such a useless fool!" Su Dingzhang cursed furiously.
Su Muyu also didn't expect a good matter to be completely ruined by this shortsighted eldest brother.
"Dad, blaming big brother won't help; we need to think of how to remedy the situation!" Su Muyu intervened.
"Remedy? Yes, yes, we must quickly find a way to fix it." Su Dingzhang realized.
The three looked at each other, utterly helpless and without a solution.
After long contemplation, Su Muyu said, "I think we need Ms. Mu Yun to step in; they are, after all, still husband and wife."
"Then call Su Muyun and ask her to think of a way to help us." Su Muyang was immediately reinvigorated.
Su Muyu promptly dialed Su Muyun's number.
"Ms. Mu Yun, are you still awake?"
"Xiaoyu, I'm still awake. What's up?" Su Muyun asked.
"Second sister, please help us out, speak some good words to Lin Hao, and tell him I'll take him to see the villa on time tomorrow." Su Muyu said.
"I don't want to talk to him now; find father and speak to him." Su Muyun didn't want to lower herself to beg Lin Hao.
"Second sister, if you don't help us, we won't have a way out. Please assist us—I'll give you an LV bag another day." Su Muyu was trying hard.
"I just argued with him, and I won't lower my head to him. Find another way." Su Muyun refused again.
"Second sister, you two are a couple; what's there to argue about? Just coax him, and everything will be fine." Su Muyu laughed and said.
"It's all because of your issues; anyway, I'm not going to talk to him now." Su Muyun was obviously angry, hanging up immediately.
On the other end, Su Muyu was also speechless, with a bitter face, she shook her head at her father and brother, and the trio looked utterly hopeless.
Lin Hao, after showering, came out and saw Su Muyun sitting on the sofa, knowing she was still angry and dared not provoke her.
"Lin Hao, why won't you help our Su Family? What are you really thinking? Are you really a heartless fiend?" Su Muyun asked coldly.
"You guessed right; I am a heartless fiend!" Lin Hao said, then dressed and intended to leave.
"Don't go; let's settle this today." Su Muyun stopped him.
"Nothing to settle; I have nothing to say. If you want a divorce, go get the divorce papers from father." Lin Hao had completely lost hope in Su Muyun.
Last time, they shared love, thinking they could save their relationship, but unexpectedly, today remained the same, her hatred apparent, and she wanted him out.
Now he feels none of it matters; if Su Muyun wishes to divorce, he doesn't want to continue trying.
Better short pain than prolonged pain!
Currently, they don't have children, so an early divorce benefits both sides. If they had children, it wouldn't be so easy-going then.
Of course, the rise and fall of the Su Family have nothing to do with him, so he has no obligation to help them.
"Have you really thought it through? Are you willing to divorce me?" Su Muyun confirmed.
"Of course, the sooner we divorce, the sooner you can find a better man." Lin Hao nodded slightly with a casual expression.
