Chapter 668 - Agricultural Tycoon

Little Jun’s arms wrapped tightly around Jiang Ying Yue’s neck, almost choking her, but she didn’t mind because it meant that her son missed her, too. Just imagining if Long Hui won custody and took their son away from her was enough to make her feel faint...or maybe that was because her son was actually choking her, making her a little light-headed. The little guy inherited her strong physique.

A pair of smooth, delicate, lovely hands (made even smoother, more delicate and lovelier thanks to Orchidia Beauty moisturizing lotions and creams) reached from behind and gently loosened the child’s arms.

"Hello, Little Jun," Iris greeted and kissed the top of her godson’s head after preventing him from choking his own mother.

Little Jun stopped crying and looked up. "Mama!" Then he saw the tall figure beside her. "Papa!"

Iris and Jin Liwei didn’t take Little Jun from Jiang Ying Yue yet, allowing her more time with her son.

Afterwards, they all headed to the family living area for some morning refreshments. It was the weekend, so Jin Liwei didn’t go to work. Iris also kept her schedule free today because Little Jun was returning home and also because the couple was already busy preparingfor their upcoming wedding.

Only a few people knew about it. Their assistants, Dom and Xu Tian who coordinated and found an auspicious date before winter and cleared their bosses’ respective schedules, knew about the wedding of course. Jin Liwei’s sworn brothers—Lin Yehan, Wang Yingjie, Yu Mo and Lu Zihao—including his blood brother Jin Chonglin also knew about it. Similarly, Iris’ friends, the other members of the girl squad besides Dom—Meimei, Clover, Long Jinjing and Chen Fei—were also informed about the upcoming wedding. Clover already flew to France a couple of days ago but would return for the special occasion.

They were told to keep it a secret, especially Jin Chonglin whose every word coming out of his mouth had the potential to make into the national headlines. Even the couple’s parents, including Grandpa Lu and Grandma Li, weren’t aware of it yet.

Iris and Jin Liwei would be meeting with a discrete wedding planner later in the afternoon. But for now, they intended to spend time with their family, especially their godson who they missed very much.

Lively chatter and laughter filled the living area. Little Jun ran around and played with his cat cousins while the adults watched him with doting smiles on their faces. Even the household staff had similar expressions because they also doted on the adorable little guy. Ketchup even caught some of them slipping extra treats to Little Jun behind Jiang Ying Yue and Iris’ backs. Of course, the virtual white cat tattled on his human cousin and the household staff to her mommy and daddy just because she was a naughty chatterbox who loved exciting drama. Iris and Jin Liwei only laughed upon hearing about it and didn’t reprimand anyone. However, Jin Liwei complained about the kind of treats his staff was giving to their godson.

"I should give everyone a raise so that they could buy something better for Little Jun."

Iris agreed with him.

Back to the present, nobody was talking about the ugly and messy custody battle. They didn’t want to ruin the beautiful moment.

Little Jun was tired running around, so he plopped his butt down on the plush carpet and turned the TV on by himself using the remote control. He was about to press the numbers of his favourite children’s channel which he knew by heart when a familiar face appeared on the TV which was currently on a news channel.

"Anko Han? Anko Han! Anko Han!" He pointed at the TV and started bouncing in excitement, catching everyone’s attention.

"Eh? Isn’t that Yehan? What’s that boy doing on TV? Does he want to follow Little Chonglin and Xiulan my girl in showbiz?" Grandpa Lu’s booming voice asked. He looked around and saw the unsurprised expressions on the others’ faces. "You already knew about this, don’t you?! You pinheaded rascals! How dare you not tell your beloved grandpa about this?! I want to know!"

"Grandpa Lu, how about we watch and listen to the news first?" Jin Liwei suggested.

"Hmph! Fine!"

Jiang Ying Yue watched the TV, her gaze drawn to Lin Yehan whenever he was shown. Lin Yehan had called her yesterday on her way home from the courthouse to inform her about his plans for today, so she wasn’t surprised seeing him in the news. Nevertheless, she still couldn’t help but feel anxious especially because it was related to her. She didn’t notice that she was gripping her own hands so hard that they had turned white.

The news story was about Lin Yehan suing certain reporters, including a number of tabloids and even a major news outlet, and most importantly, he was also suing Long Hui and his lawyers for defamation due to the cheating allegations made about him and Jiang Ying Yue.

"Tycoon Lin Yehan, who is among the top domestic producers and international exporters of tea, grains and other agricultural products in the country, has officially filed the lawsuit for defamation with his lawyer this morning against Long Industries’ Deputy CFO Long Hui and the following people..." the news anchor reported.

"Hah! It’s about time that he took action! I was wondering why that boy wasn’t doing anything! He wasn’t such a pinhead after all!"

Grandpa Lu continued commentating on Lin Yehan’s news story with his booming voice. The others also continued watching the news despite Grandpa Lu’s distracting loudness. They were already used to it, anyway.

Being an agricultural tycoon might not sound as glamorous as a global corporate billionaire like Jin Liwei, but Lin Yehan was also influential in his own right, only in a more understated way. After all, the agricultural sector was integral to the entire country, providing the citizens’ most basic need—food. It was a given that Lin Yehan had built his own list of impressive connections.

And now he was showing what he could do with the power he had that many chose to overlook until he decided to wield it...like right now.
