Zhao Tianyou silently walked away.
He could only swallow his anger after being rebuked by Xu Mengyao.
"Mengyao, you need to be more careful around the Zhao Family from now on. Although Vice President Zhao was your father's partner back then, people change. I think the Zhao Family's appetite has grown bigger."
Lin Chen said softly.
Xu Mengyao nodded. "I've mentioned it to my dad, but he values old ties. Besides, the Zhao Family holds Thirteen Percent of the shares. It won't be easy to drive them out."
"And driving away the wolves might only bring in tigers and leopards."
Lin Chen smiled.
"Mengyao, you don't need to worry too much. Even if you run out of money, your husband can support you."
Xu Mengyao rolled her Beautiful Eyes at Lin Chen.
"It's about to start. Hurry over there."
"Don't go easy on Zhao Tianyou."
Lin Chen entered the Basketball Court, and Xu Dong and the others greeted him one after another, all brimming with confidence.
Zhao Tianyou's team was quite strong, but Xu Dong and the others now had tremendous confidence in Lin Chen.
"Xu Dong, take your shots whenever you get the chance. Don't be afraid of missing. If you miss, I'll grab the rebound and put it back in."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Got it, Brother Lin."
"Brother Lin, with you here, we'll definitely win! Haha!"
Xu Dong and the others said with laughter.
You bastard, don't think you'll win so easily. Even if you're good, basketball is a five-man sport.
Zhao Tianyou cursed inwardly.
He was now extremely displeased with Lin Chen.
"Everyone, focus up."
"This will definitely be a tough battle. If we win, I'll give each of you a ten-thousand-yuan bonus."
Zhao Tianyou used money to motivate his teammates.
"Brother Zhao, we'll do our best."
"Although Brother Lin is the president's husband, we won't deliberately go easy on him on the court."
Several of Zhao Tianyou's teammates spoke up.
Ten thousand yuan was nothing to Zhao Tianyou, but it was quite a substantial sum for ordinary employees.
"Tweet! Tweet!"
The game began.
"Go, Daddy!"
Lin Xiaoqian shouted at Lin Chen from the sidelines.
Lin Chen jumped. He was slightly shorter than his opponent, but he leaped higher, easily winning possession for his side.
"Attack!"
Lin Chen shouted.
Xu Dong and the others immediately charged into Zhao Tianyou's half.
Outside the Three-Point Line, one of Lin Chen's teammates took a shot.
As expected, it missed.
The basketball struck the Basketball Hoop and bounced high into the air.
Before the ball could even fall, Lin Chen's figure rose into the air.
He seized the rebounding ball midair, then drove his arms down, slamming it hard through the hoop.
"Holy shit!"
Zhao Tianyou's expression changed.
He had been guarding Lin Chen just then.
Yet Lin Chen had just delivered a Slam Dunk right over his head.
"That was insane!"
"Go, Brother Lin!"
Many people by the sidelines shouted wildly.
Lin Chen's dunk ignited everyone's enthusiasm.
"Mommy, cheer for Daddy too."
Lin Xiaoqian said, "That'll make Daddy even stronger."
"Go, honey!"
Xu Mengyao called out.
Her voice was not loud. The people around her could hear it, but those farther away probably could not.
But Lin Chen was no ordinary person.
His physique was now far stronger than that of an ordinary person. Lin Chen's hearing was also somewhat sharper than average.
Hearing Xu Mengyao's voice, Lin Chen looked toward her.
Xu Mengyao's face immediately reddened.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Lin Chen barely took any three-pointers in this game. He let Xu Dong and the others shoot, then followed up with putbacks. One Slam Dunk after another left Zhao Tianyou's head buzzing.
Zhao Tianyou guarded him, but it was as if he was not guarding him at all.
"Tweet! Tweet!"
Halftime ended, and Zhao Tianyou was exhausted like a dog.
His expression was ugly.
After looking at the score, it became even uglier.
In the First Half, it was thirty-six to twenty-three.
They were behind by thirteen points.
Moreover, of their twenty-three points in the First Half, he had scored only two. Whenever Lin Chen was near him, he was completely shut down and had no opportunities at all.
"How many points did Lin Chen score in the First Half?"
Zhao Tianyou asked one of his Subordinates.
"Twenty."
"Every single one was a Slam Dunk."
Zhao Tianyou glared at his Subordinate.
He had only asked how many points Lin Chen scored. Did he not know how Lin Chen had scored them? Every one had been dunked right over his head.
"Daddy, have some water."
Lin Xiaoqian handed Lin Chen a bottle of water.
Lin Chen reached out and took it. Xu Mengyao froze for a moment. She had just drunk from that bottle, but she could not exactly stop Lin Chen.
There were other people around too.
What was wrong with a married couple sharing a bottle of water?
Forget it. Lin Chen and I already have a child together. It's just drinking some water.
Xu Mengyao silently comforted herself.
She could not accept anyone else drinking from water she had already drunk, but when it came to Lin Chen, she could barely accept it.
"Lin Chen, wipe off your sweat."
After Lin Chen finished drinking, Xu Mengyao handed him a towel.
"Thanks, honey."
Lin Chen said with a grin.
Xu Mengyao: "..."
She secretly rolled her eyes. She knew he would take advantage of the situation.
Lin Chen wiped the sweat from his head and neck, then lifted his shirt and wiped the sweat from his body as well.
"Wow, Brother Lin, you have Eight-pack Abs?"
"Brother Lin, how did you train that body?"
Xu Dong and the others exclaimed from nearby.
Surprise also appeared in Xu Mengyao's eyes. Lin Chen did not just have muscles in his arms—his abs were clearly defined too.
This guy looks slim in clothes, but his body is actually this good.
Xu Mengyao muttered inwardly.
She did not remember that night three years ago, nor did she have any impression of what Lin Chen's body had looked like back then.
"Tweet—"
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
The Second Half began.
Zhao Tianyou desperately wanted to score and desperately tried to stop Lin Chen, but it was useless. The gap in their abilities was simply too great.
Lin Chen merely picked up the balls his teammates missed. He scored another ten times, putting up forty points all by himself over the whole game.
The final score was seventy to forty-three.
Zhao Tianyou's team suffered a crushing defeat.
"Fuck!"
Looking at the scoreboard, Zhao Tianyou felt like dying.
Lin Chen had Slam Dunked over his head more than twenty times.
His head was still buzzing.
His legs felt as though they had been filled with lead.
For the sake of his pride, he forced himself not to leave the court. Lin Chen played the entire game, and he played the entire game too.
But what kind of physique did Lin Chen have, and what kind did he have?
"Daddy, you're amazing."
"I want to be as amazing as Daddy too."
When Lin Chen approached, Lin Xiaoqian said happily.
Xu Mengyao said, "Lin Chen, go take a shower. You must be tired after playing two games. Don't cook at home tonight. We'll go out to eat together later."
"Sure."
Lin Chen said with a grin.
"Xiaoqian, do you have any objections?"
Lin Xiaoqian shook her head and said in a childish voice, "Daddy, I want to eat the food you make, but Daddy is tired."
"We can't let Daddy wear himself out."
Lin Chen looked at Lin Xiaoqian affectionately. Though Lin Xiaoqian was young, the things she said sometimes warmed people's hearts.
"Lin Chen, go shower in my office. I'll take Qian Qian with me, and we'll be back in about half an hour."
Xu Mengyao said.
Lin Chen nodded.
Xu Mengyao's office had a bedroom. It was a suite with its own bathroom, where he could bathe and freshen up.
Her father used to stay at the company whenever he was busy.
"Dad."
Zhao Tianyou arrived at his father's office.
Zhao Huaiyuan had already finished handling matters and returned from outside.
"I already know the result."
"Don't be discouraged. Losing one basketball game doesn't mean you've lost."
"Although our family's assets are not as great as the Xu Family's, we still have seven or eight billion. What does Lin Chen have?"
Zhao Huaiyuan comforted Zhao Tianyou.
