Chapter 32 Giving You a Big Gift

Lin Yi and the others were suddenly recalled from Huafeng Cement Factory by their father and reassigned to Lin Haoning's side.

At first, Lin Haoning simply thought this was their father expressing anger at Lin Haoran's apparent abandonment of Huafeng Cement Factory, believing it was a way to pressure Lin Haoran and simultaneously strengthen his own forces.

However, as the situation developed, Lin Haoning began to realize that there might be more complex planning and considerations behind it.

"My little brother, it seems he's dead set on continuing this battle for succession," Lin Haoning said with a tone mixing helplessness and resolve. "I had hoped he would recognize reality and voluntarily withdraw from this meaningless competition. As his elder brother, I would naturally ensure he lived a life of wealth and comfort. But if Haoran insists on opposing me and fighting for the succession, then I can only treat him as a competitor, ruthlessly compressing his survival space in the business arena." His words reflected both a deep respect for family ties and a cold awareness of the ruthless nature of corporate battles.

"Husband, I've been thinking," Cao Shaoling said softly, "maybe I should ask my father to use his influence in the industry to completely destroy Huafeng Cement Factory's market position. Then no matter how hard Haoran tries, he'll have no way to recover."

"No," Lin Haoning immediately shook his head. "If we act too obviously, word will quickly reach my father. Our actions would be too blatant and might cause unnecessary trouble. Our current strategy of gradually weakening Huafeng Cement's market position and squeezing its profits is enough to make Haoran feel pressure. There's no need to be so extreme. If Father found out, he would surely explode in anger, and that could give Haoran an opportunity to fight back, putting us at a disadvantage."

"The real headache now is the uncertainty about whether Second Sister and Third Sister are secretly supporting Haoran. If both of them stand with him, then he'll have two powerful families behind him. Compared to that, our side with just the Cao family would seem weaker. Although we currently hold the upper hand, the future is full of uncertainties. This succession contest has only been going on for three months; there's still a long way to go, and we cannot guarantee 100% victory," Cao Shaoling said, her voice tinged with worry. She knew very well that her future happiness and security were directly tied to her husband's success in becoming the heir.

"Perhaps we should consult with Grandfather Cao and see if he can offer us advice to deal with this complicated situation," Lin Haoning suggested after a moment of thought.

Originally, he had been full of confidence about the competition, but upon learning that his sisters might side with Haoran, that confidence had wavered.

"Good idea, husband. I haven't been back to visit my family for over a week anyway," Cao Shaoling immediately agreed, her eyes brightening.

A few minutes later, Lin Haoning's car slowly entered the famous Kadoorie Hill villa district in Hong Kong, a symbol of wealth and power, and home to the Cao family's mansion.

The Cao family estate was grand, occupying several hundred square meters of valuable land, showcasing the family's prestige and nobility.

Lin Haoning had chosen to live in Kowloon Tong precisely because of its proximity to Kadoorie Hill, making it easy to maintain close contact with the Cao family.

Inside the Cao family villa, peace and tranquility reigned.

In the backyard, Grandfather Cao was leisurely flipping through a book, enjoying the rare serenity.

Hearing footsteps, Cao Shaoling dashed joyfully into the yard like a cheerful bird.

"Grandpa, your precious granddaughter is back to visit you!" she called out happily.

"Shaoling, Haoning, you're here," Grandfather Cao said, smiling warmly as he looked up from his book.

His gaze was full of affection and delight for his beloved granddaughter.

"Grandfather," Lin Haoning greeted respectfully.

"Haoning, if you've come specially today, it must be because you have something important to discuss?" Grandfather Cao said, his eyes twinkling with wisdom and understanding.

He knew that Lin Haoning rarely visited unless there were major family matters.

"Grandfather, you're as sharp as ever," Lin Haoning said with a slight smile before his expression turned serious.

He carefully explained the current situation regarding the Lin family's succession contest, sharing his concerns and plans for the future.

As the Cao family's son-in-law, every step Lin Haoning took was closely tied to the Cao family's interests.

Grandfather Cao naturally hoped he could secure his position within the Lin family, strengthening the marriage alliance and bringing further glory to the Cao family.

"Haoning, is the core of your competition based on your respective business achievements? You focus on Wan Fung Fan Factory, while your brother focuses on growing Huafeng Cement Factory?" Grandfather Cao asked, his deep gaze fixed on him.

"Exactly," Lin Haoning nodded.

Grandfather Cao smiled slightly and continued, "In that case, you should focus your efforts on consolidating Wan Fung's advantages.

If you can ensure Huafeng Cement remains stagnant, you will maintain the upper hand.

And about your worry that your sisters might support Haoran—don't worry too much. Grandfather has a big gift for you."

A sly glint flashed in Grandfather Cao's eyes.

"I have an old friend who has been doing business in the Middle East for many years, specializing in selling Hong Kong's light industrial products in the Middle East.

You know how hot it is over there—fans are in huge demand.

I can arrange an introduction for you so that my old friend prioritizes buying from Wan Fung Fan Factory.

With this channel, your fan sales will soar.

But you must promise me one thing: maintain strict quality control.

Do not embarrass me with poor products."

Hearing this, both Lin Haoning and Cao Shaoling's eyes lit up with excitement.

Cao Shaoling couldn't help but exclaim, "Grandfather, this is truly a huge gift! You really care so much for Haoning!"

Grandfather Cao smiled and shook his head, his gaze full of affection.

"Of course, I hope all of you do well.

But remember, business is like war—only strength can ensure invincibility.

Haoning, you must seize this opportunity and not let Grandfather down."
