Chapter 109: Chapter 109: I Am the Future Person in Power of the Jin Group

After the fates were swapped, Shen Zhiyao said to Jin Huai Zhong, “A fate swap drains some of the person’s vitality. He just needs to lie here and rest for a day, and he’ll be fine.”

Jin Huai Zhong thanked her profusely. As he was seeing Shen Zhiyao out, he handed her a red envelope.

Shen Zhiyao immediately refused. “I’m not helping you for free. Jin Fan knows what I want as thanks.”

She wasn’t short on money anymore. What she lacked was Belief Power from her followers.

Even though she now had eight million followers on her Douyin Live Stream, the Belief Power they provided still wasn’t enough.

To get a bigger platform and more Belief Power from followers, the entertainment industry was the best path forward.

But breaking into the entertainment industry had its requirements. You needed the strong backing of an agency to succeed.

Yuanqi Entertainment was the agency Shen Zhiyao had her sights set on.

Only when Jin Fan climbed to the position of the Beijing Circle Prince could Shen Zhiyao use his influence to open the doors to the entertainment industry.

…

Kang Lin knew that Chen Xu wouldn’t use conventional methods to kill someone.

She wanted to use Chen Xu to get rid of Jin Huai Zhong, but she didn’t want to see any of those ghosts and ghouls.

That night, Kang Lin ran out of the house.

She expected to hear news of Jin Huai Zhong’s death the next day, but all she got was silence.

As noon approached, she tried calling Jin Muyang, but no one answered. She called the servants at home, and still, no one picked up.

So, she called Jin Huai Zhong’s secretary. This time, the call was answered. “Mr. Jin took the day off. He’s not at the company.”

Now, Mr. Jin was a workaholic. He normally wouldn’t take a day off even for a fever or a cold.

So why the sudden day off? Even his assistant was completely in the dark.

A triumphant smile stretched across Kang Lin’s face, nearly reaching her ears. “Jin Huai Zhong, you’re finally dead! Since you wanted to leave your money to your biological son, don’t you blame me for this!”

Kang Lin’s eyes suddenly turned sinister.

’It’s a shame, and I feel a little sorry for Jin Huai Zhong,’ she thought. ’But who told him to leave the entire business to that jinx! As long as Jin Huai Zhong is dead, that will becomes legally binding. Then, all of the Jin family’s assets will be transferred to Jin Muyang’s name.’

Returning to the Jin family home, Kang Lin composed herself, trying her best to look grief-stricken.

’After all, we’ve been married for over twenty years. It wouldn’t look good to walk in with a smile on my face.’

Kang Lin kept her head down as she opened the main door. When she saw Jin Huai Zhong sitting on the sofa, completely unharmed, she froze. “Huai… Huai Zhong… How are you…?”

Jin Huai Zhong’s gaze was frigid. “What? Are you surprised that I’m not dead?”

His powerful presence sent a jolt through her. “Huai Zhong, what are you talking about? Huai Zhong, why didn’t you go to work today?”

Looking at Kang Lin’s feigned concern, Jin Huai Zhong only felt disgusted.

He pulled out a divorce agreement and slapped it onto the table. “Let’s get a divorce.”

Seeing this, Kang Lin’s voice shot up. “A divorce? Jin Huai Zhong, you actually want to divorce me? Are you seeing someone else?”

Glancing at the divorce agreement again, Kang Lin grew even more furious. “Jin Huai Zhong, I’ve been with you for over twenty years, and now you want me to leave with nothing?”

At that moment, Jin Huai Zhong dropped all pretense. “Jin Muyang is Chen Xu’s son, isn’t he? Don’t think for a second I don’t know how you and Chen Xu plotted against me!”

Hearing this, Kang Lin instantly panicked, her mind going blank for a moment.

But Jin Huai Zhong couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words on her. “I’ll be honest with you—Chen Xu is dead! Now, take your and Chen Xu’s son, and get out of the Jin family home!”

“No, no, no! Huai Zhong, you must have misunderstood something! It’s not like that!” Hearing that Chen Xu was dead, Kang Lin panicked completely. She grabbed Jin Huai Zhong’s sleeve. “Huai Zhong, I really wanted to stay with the Jin family and live a good life with you! It was Chen Xu! He wouldn’t let me go!”

“I was afraid you would leave me if you found out, so I was blackmailed by him for a long time. It was during that period that I became pregnant with Chen Xu’s son.”

“Huai Zhong, I really love you, I really do! I’m begging you, for the sake of our twenty-plus years of marriage, give me another chance. And give Muyang a chance too!”

She cried pitifully, but Jin Huai Zhong’s expression remained cold. He flung her hand away and said icily, “Kang Lin, you really don’t know your place. If it weren’t for the fact that we’ve been married for over twenty years, do you think I’d let you walk away from this unscathed? Take your son, leave Beijing City, and if I ever see either of you again, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

Jin Huai Zhong sat upright on the sofa, his expression still frigid.

He had been navigating the business world for many years, and Kang Lin was well aware of his methods.

Seeing she had no ground to stand on, she had no choice but to take Jin Muyang and leave in disgrace.

Soon, Jin Fan woke up. When he learned that Kang Lin had left, he was completely shocked. “She just left? Dad, you just let her go like that?”

’But Kang Lin almost killed Dad last night! And he just let her walk away?’

Jin Huai Zhong said lightly, “I didn’t tell her that your fate and Jin Muyang’s were swapped back.”

“Huh?” The word had barely left his lips when Jin Fan instantly understood. “So, you deliberately didn’t tell her, so she’d leave with that jinx, and then… the two of them would suffer misfortune together?”

’As expected of my old man. That move is just plain vicious.’

Previously, Shen Zhiyao had read Jin Fan’s fortune, telling him his bad luck would worsen day by day, that anyone who got close to him would also suffer misfortune, and that he would eventually be disowned by his father and die a miserable death in a garbage dump at the age of 30.

Now that Jin Muyang’s and Jin Fan’s fates had been swapped back, Shen Zhiyao’s prophecy would come true for Jin Muyang instead.

And with Kang Lin sticking with Jin Muyang, her fortunes would naturally take a downturn. This, too, was a form of retribution.

“Xiao Fan, come to work at the Jin Group tomorrow,” Jin Huai Zhong said. Seeing his 24-year-old son still idling about gave him a headache, and he figured it was time to give Jin Fan something to do.

Jin Fan hadn’t even processed it yet. The fatherly love that had been missing for over twenty years was suddenly rekindled.

He had originally wanted to build their relationship first, but after a moment’s hesitation, he agreed.

On the surface, he appeared calm, but inside, he was ecstatic. ’Who can even understand this, people?! I’m 24, I’ve never worked hard a day in my life, and I end up inheriting a trillion-yuan fortune. This is just so heartbreaking!’

Worried that his son hadn’t fully recovered, Jin Huai Zhong even told Jin Fan to sleep in and come to the company whenever he woke up naturally.

The next day, Jin Fan dyed his green hair black, put on a suit, and headed to the company.

Honestly, this was Jin Fan’s first time visiting the Jin Group. Previously, Jin Huai Zhong had been so afraid of Jin Fan bringing bad luck to the company that he hadn’t dared to even reveal its location.

Before, when Jin Huai Zhong heavily favored Jin Muyang, Jin Fan had been incredibly envious. But now that the company was about to actually fall into his hands, he still felt a little hesitant.

After all, he had spent the last twenty-odd years idling away and had never learned anything about management. He couldn’t help but feel a bit apprehensive.

The security guard, Old Zhang, had never seen Jin Fan before. Thinking he looked a bit suspicious, he walked up and asked if Jin Fan was there for a job interview and whether he had an appointment.

Seeing the guard, Jin Fan recognized him instantly. “Old Zhang!”

The guard asked curiously, “You know me?”

Jin Fan quickly explained, “Weren’t you on a call with Xiao Shen’s fortune-telling live stream a few days ago? I watched that whole stream from beginning to end! I can’t believe you’re a security guard at the Jin Group!”

As they talked, they both grew more excited. Jin Fan asked, “So, when you went on Xiao Shen’s fortune-telling stream to cause trouble, was that all on Jin Huai Zhong’s orders?”

Old Zhang said warily, “How do you know our Mr. Jin’s name? Who are you?”

“I’m his son. The future head of the Jin Group!”
