My retirement life in Neon

Chapter 154 Save Me

After Takaishi Mai left, Lin Zian walked to the bed and looked at the man on the bed.

He had short silver hair, snow-white eyebrows, and thicker eyebrows than most people. He had a peaceful face and looked kind.

Lin Zian estimated that he should be in his seventies or eighties.

"Stop pretending, get up." Lin Zian suddenly laughed.

But the man on the bed did not react at all, and remained the same.

"I didn't lie to you, and your breathing frequency just changed. Get up, you can't fool me."

But the man on the bed still did not react.

"Okay, you forced me to do this." Lin Zian stepped forward and pinched his nose. Within ten seconds, his face turned red, and he opened his eyes in less than thirty seconds.

"Isn't this a life saver?" Lin Zian laughed.

"Ahem, you are so cruel, you treat me like this." Takaishi Shuichiro said, holding back a cough.

"Who told you not to listen to me? I've already said it." Lin Zi'an didn't mind his attitude at all, "What are you doing? Are you pretending to be dead?"

"Shhh" Takaishi Shuichiro pulled Lin Zi'an's hand and made a gesture to silence him.

"Don't worry, no one can hear our conversation." Lin Zi'an had already made some arrangements.

Looking at Takaishi Shuichiro's long sigh of relief, Lin Zi'an couldn't help but feel a little curious and asked, "What's the situation now? What's the purpose of doing all this?"

"Who are you? Why are you looking for me?" Takaishi Shuichiro, who was half lying on the bed, took a glass of water from the side and asked after taking a sip.

"Didn't I just say that I was asked by Yukino Takemi to save you? But you don't seem to need my help. You must have been awake all along."

"I didn't expect it was Takemi. I really think he's my son-in-law."

"He told me that you two are close friends, but how come you're my son-in-law?"

"Hmph! If he hadn't suddenly married a woman, he would be my son-in-law now. I helped him so much, but he left my daughter in the blink of an eye." Takaishi Shuichiro was still indignant when he talked about this.

"Heh." Lin Zian chuckled. It seemed that it was a debt of love from Yukino Takemi.

"I didn't see your daughter over there just now. It seems that your daughter is not very reliable." Lin Zian didn't see a woman in the front hall just now.

"How could it be? She came to see me yesterday." Takaishi Shuichiro was obviously very proud of his daughter. "Was Takemi there?"

"Oh~" After he said that, Lin Zian understood and showed an understanding expression on his face.

"She hasn't appeared in the same occasion with Takemi since that time."

Takaishi Shuichiro looked a little regretful. For some reason, the couple that was almost perfect in his eyes suddenly broke up, and then Yukino Takemi suddenly announced her marriage. The matter ended before he could react.

"Let's talk about something serious. Why are you pretending to be sick?" Lin Zian found that the two of them had been talking about the gossip about Yukino Takemi. This kind of thing can be discussed later. Now it is more important to deal with this mess and go to dinner.

"Why should I tell you?" Takaishi Shuichiro narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a sharp feeling.

"Do you have a choice? Either I go out and tell them that you are fine, or you go and tell them yourself." Lin Zian smiled, "And your current situation is not good, otherwise you would not be trapped here."

"I am ashamed to say this." Takaishi Shuichiro sorted out his thoughts and told Lin Zian why he did this.

After listening, Lin Zian had nothing to say, it was just a matter of interests.

As the founder, Shuichiro Takaishi created the current foundation. He has five children, the second of whom is a daughter, and the other four are sons. As his children, they all have some power in their hands.

As Shuichiro Takaishi has aged in recent years, he no longer has the desire to manage the business, and gradually wants to retire from the position, and who will take over has become a problem.

The company is not dominated by their family alone. There is the involvement of the board of directors. Various factions have conflicts with each other, and the people they support are different. Once he retires, without the title of founder, it will become a problem whether the successor can still suppress it.

But how could Shuichiro Takaishi not know this? He knew the abilities of his children and directly used his own power to forcefully suppress the voices of opposition and pushed up his eldest son, who he thought was the most suitable.

The transfer of power was completed in the shortest time, avoiding the emergence of internal friction.

But he had just retired when something happened. Company secrets were leaked, many actions were sniped by hostile forces, a large number of backbones were poached, and the board of directors launched an attack. These simultaneous appearances had to make him uneasy.

"Do you suspect there is a traitor?" Lin Zian probably knew why he was like this.

"It's not suspicion, it's certainty." Takaishi Shuichiro said with a wry smile: "There are some core secrets that only less than ten people in the whole company know, including my children."

"What about the remaining few people?"

"I've checked them all."

Although Takaishi Shuichiro didn't have much emotion when he said it, Lin Zian could still see the cruelty in it.

People who can create such a large business empire are not that simple. Whether they are bad or not is another matter, but they are definitely not good people.

"Have you found the traitor?" Lin Zian asked casually. He felt that Takaishi Shuichiro was too calm and not panicked at all.

"I was prepared when those things just broke out, so they all thought I really couldn't stand the stimulation and went crazy. With the investigation these days, I really found something." The expression on Takaishi Shuichiro's face suddenly became a little strange, as if he couldn't figure out what he found.

"Then what are you going to do?" Lin Zian felt a little bored. He came here and got nothing, but was angry.

"Of course, I'll clean up the mess." Takaishi Shuichiro closed his eyes, his tone was a little scary.

"Then I have nothing to do, go home and eat." Lin Zian patted his butt and left.

Since others have almost done it, there is no need for him to get involved. This kind of mess should be left to them to deal with.

"Hey, wait a minute, didn't you say you wanted to help?"

"You've already found it, why do you need my help? And my appearance fee is very high, and Yukino Takemi didn't pay it." Lin Zian didn't even turn his head, and stopped when he walked to the door, "Friendly reminder, you should go back to bed and rest, I'm going out, it will be bad if your granddaughter sees you later."

Takaishi Shuichiro said something that made Lin Zian confused.

"Do me a favor, wake me up."

Lin Zian frowned when he heard this, turned around and looked at him, thinking: What does he mean? Why does he want me to wake him up...
