"Quite self-aware of yourself." Lin Zhentian wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry at Lin Tai's honesty.
Without obedient Ziyu, he wondered how long the Lin Family could last under Lin Tai.
"Dad, I'm aware." Inheriting the family business? Impossible for him. This life, no chance.
Being an idle fish is better, isn't it?
Lin Tai had been infected by the Idle Fish System long ago; beyond finishing the plot, he just wanted to be idle.
"By the way, Dad, Weifeng invited me out tonight. I'm off." Seeing Lin Zhentian ready to lecture, Lin Tai slipped away.
Coincidentally, Ling Weifeng's news came just in time.
"This kid!" Lin Zhentian didn't stop him. He was used to this by now.
"Ziyu, Dad gives you a three-month leave to rest. After that, you'll come to the company." Lin Zhentian was relieved—his daughter was reliable.
"Thanks, Dad." Lin Ziyu was happy to have time to deal with her brother.
"Ziyu, I hope you and your brother get along. You see, with him like this... the Lin Family can only rely on you." Lin Zhentian said sincerely.
Let Lin Tai be a happy idle fish.
"Dad, haven't you considered that he might not be as bad as we think?" Lin Ziyu wanted to defend her brother.
He was the greatest man ever.
"He's my son; how could I not know him?" Lin Zhentian shook his head. Lin Tai was already bewitched by Xia Shihan—there was no hope.
Outside the Lin Family estate, a flashy Lamborghini with butterfly doors was parked.
"Bro, hop in." Ling Weifeng waved. "Let's go out and have fun."
"Fun? Didn't I tell you to stay in Hainan for a month? How come you're back early?" Lin Tai was exasperated. He was sent to Hainan to save his life, and now Ling Weifeng returned on his own.
"You dare say that? I heard about the Longteng Hotel video and all the online curses. I couldn't sit still." Ling Weifeng was vacationing in Hainan—sunshine, beach, beauties—everything perfect.
Until he saw the video and the crowd's cursing and had to rush back.
"None of that concerns you; they're cursing me." Ling Weifeng was known for his good character; the online uproar was mainly aimed at Lin Tai.
The insults and keyboard warriors were impressive.
Even when the full video was released, what difference did it make? Lin Tai's reputation was ruined, dragging Ye Bai down with him.
"Because they're cursing you!" Ling Weifeng regarded Lin Tai as a brother and was worried about him.
He was angry Lin Tai suffered in silence.
"Cough, where to tonight?" Lin Tai cleared his throat, feeling both grateful and helpless.
Grateful for Ling Weifeng's brotherly love.
Helpless because Ling Weifeng underestimated him. From the day he became a villainous male side character, Lin Tai no longer cared about reputation.
Cursing or not, he just ignored it.
"Next time, tell me first when something happens. Otherwise, I can't be your brother." Ling Weifeng said, taking the hint.
"Tonight, I'll show you the world." Ling Weifeng's smile turned sly.
"What's that?"
"Heaven on Earth, ever heard of it?"
"Heaven on Earth?" Lin Tai almost forgot. He was such a dedicated villainous male side character that he nearly forgot the plot.
Heaven on Earth was a bar founded by Yan Family's Young Master, a very upscale and proper place.
Girls could enter freely with free drinks; men needed status or an invitation.
Lin Tai remembered in the previous life, after the video scandal, Ling Weifeng took him to Heaven on Earth to relax.
It was funny—almost every young master in the Ten Minor Families had membership except Lin Tai.
They looked down on him.
Without Ling Weifeng, Lin Tai wouldn't get in.
At Heaven on Earth, per the plot, Ye Bai's agent Zhao Gang (the guy from detention) would come to Lin Tai and become his henchman.
Zhao Gang had a large role in The Emperor's Return.
In half a month, Lu Ziyan's film would start shooting; the arson was his idea and a key plot for Lin Tai.
Because of the fire, Ye Bai saved Lu Ziyan and Su Qingyan, restoring his reputation and gaining Su Family's support.
Lin Tai offended Lu and Su Families in one go, and their retaliation followed.
The arson plot was the biggest trouble Lin Tai caused since the start.
Lin Zhentian paid a heavy price to save Lin Tai's life from Su and Lu Families.
Though unfair to Lin Zhentian, Lin Tai had to follow the plot.
At least in the end, Lin Zhentian would have a good ending.
