Chapter 218 Lin Zhou Buys the Entire Kindergarten: From Now On, Nuonuo is in Charge
"I want this kindergarten to change its name within ten minutes."
"I want it, with the surname Lin."
Lin Zhou's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an absolute dictatorship with the power of life and death.
Old Chen bowed slightly, his weathered face showing no surprise. It was as if buying this sprawling, prestigious kindergarten was as simple as buying a head of cabbage at the market.
"As you wish, young master."
The atmosphere in the infirmary was still oppressive and suffocating.
Less than four minutes had passed.
Old Chen's satellite phone suddenly rang urgently.
He listened for a moment, a mocking sneer curling at the corner of his lips, then turned and walked to Lin Zhou, bowing his head respectfully.
"Young Master, the matter has been taken care of."
"The chairman of Hengtai Real Estate, the controlling shareholder behind Alice Early Childhood Education Group, just called me personally. He cried like a grandson on the phone, saying that his subordinates were blind and offended the true god, and deserved to die."
Old Chen paused, a hint of disdain in his tone.
"He not only promised to immediately dismiss all those involved, but also expressed his willingness to transfer all the property rights of the kindergarten to you for a symbolic price of one yuan. He only asks that you be lenient and not take your anger out on Hengtai Real Estate."
Upon hearing this, a hint of mockery flashed in Lin Zhou's eyes.
"One dollar? Does he think I'm doing charity work, or is he trying to fob me off like a beggar?"
Lin Zhou twirled the black and gold dragon-patterned ring on his index finger, his voice as cold and sharp as a knife.
"Pay him the highest market premium. When the Lin family buys something, it's not up to others to give it to us. But tell him that if I find any more of this kind of shady business activity under his control, Hengtai Real Estate can disappear from Beijing."
"Understood. The transfer agreement will be faxed directly to the principal's office in three minutes."
This swift and decisive action, this terrifying display of treating money like dirt, made the legs of the several kindergarten teachers who were peeking from outside the door go weak, and they almost couldn't stand up.
Lin Zhou ignored the apprehensive gazes from outside.
He turned around, strode out of the infirmary, and came to the corridor outside.
Su Qingge was holding Nuonuo and standing not far away, surrounded by more than a dozen black-clad bodyguards who stood like iron towers, protecting the mother and daughter tightly in the middle.
Upon seeing Lin Zhou emerge, Nuonuo, who had been pale with fright just moments before, immediately stretched out her two soft little arms, wanting a hug.
"dad!"
Lin Zhou's eyes softened instantly. He took his daughter in his arms and carefully avoided the scrapes on her knees.
"Sweetie, Daddy has chased away all the bad guys. No one will dare to bully our Nuonuo anymore."
Just then, Teacher Li, who had been protecting Nuonuo, also timidly walked out of the infirmary.
She had witnessed the entire terrifying purge firsthand, and now, looking at Lin Zhou, her eyes were filled with awe and unease.
"Mr. Lin... I'm sorry, I..."
"Teacher Li, you don't need to apologize."
Lin Zhou turned to look at her, the coldness on his face completely gone, replaced by an extremely earnest expression of gratitude.
"Just now in the infirmary, you withstood the pressure from that shrew and kept Nuonuo protected. I, Lin Zhou, will remember this kindness."
Lin Zhou held Nuonuo in his arms, his gaze sweeping over the other faculty and staff members who were hiding in the corridor out of fear.
"As for you."
His voice suddenly rose, carrying an imposing and chilling aura.
"When Nuonuo was being bullied just now, you all stood by and watched coldly, and some even chimed in to curry favor with the powerful."
"Since you enjoy fawning over the powerful and belittling the weak so much, you are not worthy of standing on this three-foot-high platform to teach and educate people."
Lin Zhou pointed at the trembling kindergarten teachers and coldly issued his final ultimatum.
"Go to the finance department to settle your wages and get out of here immediately! From now on, anyone in Beijing's education sector who dares to hire you will be going against the Lin family!"
Those snobbish kindergarten teachers immediately collapsed to the ground, covering their faces and crying in despair, but no one sympathized with them.
Lin Zhou turned his gaze back to Teacher Li.
"Teacher Li, I have now fully acquired this kindergarten."
"From today onwards, you are the new principal of this kindergarten. All outstanding teachers who remain will have their salaries tripled. I don't care about the money; I just want you to dedicate yourselves to teaching every child here."
Teacher Li was completely stunned by this huge windfall.
She covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes, and bowed repeatedly with emotion.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin! I will certainly not let you down!"
After dealing with these trivial matters, Lin Zhou carried Nuonuo to the kindergarten's spacious playground.
The autumn sun shines on the colorful slides and the huge dream castle, and a gentle breeze brings a long-lost sense of tranquility.
Lin Zhou pointed to the vast park in front of him, lowered his head, and gently rubbed his nose against his daughter's soft cheek.
"Nuonuo, didn't you just ask if Daddy was a prince?"
"Now, let me tell you, this is the first private castle that I'm giving you."
Lin Zhou's eyes were filled with boundless doting affection.
"From now on, Nuonuo will be in charge in this castle."
"If anyone dares to bully you or steal your toys again, don't try to reason with them or make yourself suffer. Just tell the security guard to fire them all and throw them out!"
The little girl's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she even forgot the pain in her knees.
She excitedly hugged Lin Zhou's neck and giggled.
"Really? They can even throw that chubby Hao Hao out?"
"Of course, with just one word from Nuonuo, he could throw an elephant out."
Su Qingge stood to the side, watching the heartwarming interaction between the father and daughter, her peach blossom eyes sparkling with tenderness. Although what she had experienced today had overturned her understanding of things for over twenty years, as long as this man still loved his daughter so much and still protected this family so much, nothing else mattered.
"Honey, take Nuonuo home to rest first, and have the family doctor take care of her wound again."
Lin Zhou walked up to Su Qingge and gently kissed her forehead.
"I have some things to take care of with Uncle Chen. I'll be back later to have dinner with you."
Su Qingge nodded understandingly and didn't ask any further questions.
She knew that now that the lion, which had been dormant for seven years, had awakened, the landscape of the capital was bound to change.
They watched as Su Qingge's Porsche, escorted by several Rolls-Royces, safely drove away from the street corner.
Lin Zhou withdrew his gaze, the tenderness in his eyes vanishing in an instant.
He turned and strode toward the bulletproof Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in the middle.
The car door opened, and Old Chen stood respectfully to the side.
Lin Zhou bent down and sat in the spacious and luxurious back seat, his deep eyes surging with a chilling and terrifying killing intent.
He leaned back in the leather seat, slowly turning the black and gold dragon-patterned ring on his index finger.
"Uncle Chen, prepare for battle."
Lin Zhou's voice was deep and cold, like the tolling of death's bell.
"I've always had a bad temper. Now that I've gotten back what's rightfully mine, I can't wait even a day longer to settle this blood debt that's been held against me for seven years."
"The first strike will be a sacrifice to the Imperial Entertainment Group."
Old Chen sat in the passenger seat, his cloudy old eyes flashing with two terrifying beams of light.
"This old servant understands! The three thousand Shadow Assassins and the trillions in funds are all in place and ready to tear them apart at any time!"
……
at the same time.
The top floor of the Royal Dynasty Entertainment headquarters in Beijing's CBD.
In the luxurious CEO office, Zhou Lixing was holding a glass of expensive Romanée-Conti red wine, leaning comfortably back in his boss's chair.
Although I've been overwhelmed by Starry Sky Media and Su Zhentian these past few days.
But he believed that as long as he weathered this storm, with the deep foundation of Dynasty Entertainment, he would eventually be able to trample that bitch Su Qingge under his feet.
"Bang!"
The office door was suddenly and violently kicked open from the outside.
Zhou Lixing's trusted assistant scrambled in, his face as pale as a dead man's.
His whole body was trembling uncontrollably, and he was clutching a top-secret urgent intelligence report he had just bought from a top-level intelligence dealer on the dark web.
"Boss...something terrible has happened! The sky is falling!"
The assistant's voice became shrill and cracked with extreme fear.
"You unruly brat! What's with the panic!"
Zhou Lixing frowned and cursed angrily, then put his crossed legs down with extreme dissatisfaction.
"Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. In this capital city, what can possibly prevent our Dynasty Entertainment from recovering?"
"No... Boss, you can see for yourself..."
The assistant, trembling, handed the top-secret intelligence to Zhou Lixing's desk, not even having the courage to look Zhou Lixing in the eye.
Zhou Lixing snorted coldly and casually picked up the document bag with the airtight seal.
He tore open the seal and pulled out a few photos and a thin page of information.
The photo is very clear.
The location was right outside Alice Kindergarten.
In the scene, the mysterious overseas steward, rumored to control hundreds of billions of offshore funds, is kneeling on both knees, weeping bitterly in front of a tall, handsome young man.
When Zhou Lixing's gaze swept over the young man's slightly turned face and the bold black characters at the top of the document...
His pupils instantly contracted to the size of a pinhead.
It felt as if an invisible ghostly hand was gripping my heart tightly and squeezing it hard!
[Target's identity confirmed: Lin Zhou, the eldest son of the Lin family in Beijing.]
"Snapped!"
Without warning, the expensive wine glass in Zhou Lixing's hand slipped from his fingers and crashed heavily to the floor.
The crimson liquid mixed with shards of broken glass splattered all over the ground, resembling a glaring blood.
"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible!"
Zhou Lixing stared intently at the familiar yet unfamiliar man in the photo, letting out a shrill, ghostly roar.
"Seven years ago, he and his car were clearly burned to a crisp! How could he still be alive?!"
