381: Chapter 381 Two Hundred Billion on the Run

Soon...

Wang Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

His expression quickly darkened.

"Mr. Lin, are you perhaps playing a trick on me?"

Heh heh...

More than just playing a trick!

At this moment, any normal person would feel like they were being played, right?

The fact that Wang Lin didn't jump up to slap Lin Heng on the spot or spit at him already showed that he possessed excellent composure.

"Mr. Lin Heng, do you really take me, Wang Lin, for a fool??"

"Or do you truly believe that I, who started from nothing to get where I am today, succeeded purely on luck?"

Wang Lin quickly stood up at this moment.

His face flushed with anger.

He truly couldn't understand Lin Heng's mentality for toying with him like this!

And that little brat Wang Gang!

He would definitely make that guy pay when he got back!

"Heh heh..."

However, Lin Heng just gave a faint smile.

"Mr. Wang, please don't be anxious. I have no intention of playing tricks on you."

"It's the same as I said before, our cooperation depends entirely on your decision... Furthermore, I already mentioned that these one billion is merely a gesture of goodwill between us."

"Even if our cooperation falls through, this one billion is still yours."

"Additionally... the two hundred billion you cannot recover, I can take responsibility for helping you get it back, but you must fulfill your previous promise... all of the shares of your Wang family!"

Lin Heng spoke with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lin coldly snorted.

"You guys... recovering two hundred billion within a week, how is that possible??"

It wasn't that Wang Lin looked down on Lin Heng.

It was because, in his eyes, there was absolutely no possibility of that happening!

Previously, he had already brought people to find the Longan Bureau. For such a major issue, they naturally needed to seek professional help.

The Director of the Longan Bureau, Long Anyou, personally met with Wang Lin, but the subsequent events were not unexpected...

The people from the Longan Bureau had tried their best, but wanting to recover that sum of money was clearly impossible in this lifetime!

After all, where the executives were located was one issue; whether the authorities of those countries were willing to hand the money over was another matter entirely.

And beforehand...

They had already investigated clearly.

That country was Pretty Country!

Of the two hundred billion, one hundred and twenty billion had already been treated as tax revenue and absorbed into the national treasury!

There is a saying:

The things you should never do in this world are... committing drug trafficking in Long Country, becoming president in Football Country, and evading taxes in Pretty Country!

Trying to make those authorities spit out that money was almost as hard as ascending to heaven!

This was tantamount to challenging the authority of Pretty Country!

Therefore, Wang Lin never planned on getting that money back from the start. As for Wang Gang... he was merely an unknowing party, simply wanting to chase after that money.

That was why he sought out Lin Xiaoxiao, intending to ask Lin Heng for help.

However, Wang Gang didn't know what kind of existence he had provoked!

So, when Lin Heng said he could recover that sum of money within a week, Wang Lin only felt it was wishful thinking.

That was all.

"What if... we really do manage to get that money back?"

Lin Heng smiled and spoke calmly.

As soon as he said this, Wang Lin fell silent.

But quickly, he let out a sneer.

He scoffed!

If Lin Heng and the others could really get the money back, that would be their capability!

That money would have nothing to do with him anymore, nor was it something he needed to consider.

Previously, he had secretly hired quite a few Mercenaries, hoping to find some possibility, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean. Ever since he negotiated with the other party, there had been no news from them until now!

There were many possibilities for the loss of contact.

Most of them had been eliminated.

Wang Lin had heard this news on the dark web.

After understanding these matters, Wang Lin felt a chill down his spine.

Whether officially or privately, he had no way to deal with those people...

Later, the matter was simply dropped.

And now, Lin Heng, a young man who hadn't even graduated from university, was telling him he could get that money back within a week—wasn't he joking!

He scoffed!

"If you guys can get that money back, that's your skill!"

"We have nothing to do with this money anyway, do whatever you want. But I see no reason for any further discussion regarding today's matter."

"Please, Mr. Lin Heng, keep this one billion yourself."

"Consider me as never having come today!"

Wang Lin angrily stood up.

By now, he felt he had been tricked by Lin Heng.

If Long Anyou hadn't whispered a few words about Lin Heng's name in his ear, he wouldn't have rushed over immediately after receiving Wang Gang's call.

He hadn't expected that all he would be left with was disappointment.

It seemed...

Wanheng Real Estate had completely lost...

Wang Lin looked up at the gloomy clouds in the sky.

He never expected that thirty years of hard work would result in such an ending.

It truly made one sigh with emotion...

With that, he turned away in disappointment and walked toward the exit of the Courtyard House.

"Dad!"

On the way, Wang Gang saw his father's imposing figure slowly become stooped... as if he had aged by more than twenty years in that instant.

In a moment, he fell from his prime into the decline of old age...

Wang Lin, who had started from nothing and risen step by step, had finally, at this moment, completely lost all hope.

Wang Gang couldn't describe the feeling.

But he knew his father's personality was definitely not as weak and helpless as he imagined.

Even in the most difficult circumstances, Wang Lin would use all his energy to prop up the collapsing structure!

"Mr. Wang Lin..."

At this moment, Lin Heng still maintained his smile.

He smiled faintly and called out from a distance.

The other party did not turn back.

What kind of person was Wang Lin? If one started from his teens, he could already qualify as the male protagonist in a feel-good novel in the real world.

Proud as he was, even in his old age, his ambition could not be extinguished by a few casual words.

His inner pride did not allow him to bow his head.

But soon...

Lin Xiaoxiao tugged at Lin Heng's clothes.

She whispered somewhat slyly, "Brother... if you keep this up, he's really going to leave!"

Lin Heng casually waved his hand, gently patting Lin Xiaoxiao's head.

Then he continued speaking:

"Mr. Wang Lin, but what if I really do recover those two hundred billion? Then consider it our investment for this time?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lin paused.

However, his footsteps remained forward.

Without the slightest hesitation.
