Chapter 182: Chapter 120: It’s All About Interests

After all, these special Sunshine Rose Seeds had the attributes of Deliciousness +1, Texture +1, and Sweetness +1, as well as the special attributes of Season Immunity +1 and Environmental Factors -1.

If these Sunshine Rose Seeds could be cultivated without having to rely on the game’s procurement market, that would be incredible. You could plant these Sunshine Roses in deserts and wastelands, which would be a monumental achievement for the agricultural world.

’At that point, what’s a mere one million?’

Unfortunately, this batch of Sunshine Roses didn’t trigger that chance. So, he gave Liu De a call and instructed, "Clear out the Sunshine Roses from both experimental plots and plant the new seeds."

After giving Liu De his instructions, he headed to the moisturizing cream workshop.

Apparently, the moisturizing cream had passed its inspections and reviews, and all the relevant certifications had been issued. The next step was to start promoting it.

When Zhang Lin arrived at the moisturizing cream workshop, Zhang Yuan was directing the staff in producing the cream.

Off to the side, boxes of produced and packaged moisturizing cream were stacked in a corner.

"President Zhang, what brings you to the workshop today?" Zhang Yuan asked as she came forward to greet him.

Zhang Lin explained, "The moisturizing cream passed its inspections and reviews, and the certifications are in. We’re about to start promoting it."

"That’s great!" Zhang Yuan’s face lit up.

Having been promoted to head of the farm’s special products department, she naturally hoped the moisturizing cream would be an instant hit. Besides, she was very confident in the product; after all, she knew just how effective it was.

After checking on the production of the moisturizing cream and seeing that everything was in order, Zhang Lin returned to the office center.

In the afternoon, he received a call from his Senior Brother Chen Xin.

He answered, and the voice on the other end said, "Junior Brother, I’m on the bullet train and about to arrive at the You City station. Don’t forget to pick me up."

"So soon?" Zhang Lin was a bit surprised.

After all, Chen Xin had previously said he would come over after finishing a case. But the moment their Senior Sister Lin Muxue posted that provocative dance video, he seemed to have seen it and immediately announced he was booking a flight.

’He’s already about to arrive in You City. Booking a plane ticket, then a train ticket... He must have traveled nonstop, huh?’

This just went to show how charismatic his Senior Sister Lin Muxue was. In the alumni group chat, many of the single, unmarried, and divorced senior brothers seemed to have a *special* interest in her. They were constantly tagging him in the group to fish for information. If he hadn’t rejected so many friend requests, his WeChat would have been blown up by now.

Still, he had to go pick up Senior Brother Chen. Before leaving, he called Lin Mengyao and asked her to reserve a tent at the South Campground.

A short while later, Zhang Lin drove his Mercedes S-Class to the bullet train station and picked up a gentle, refined-looking man. He was dressed in a suit, wore glasses, and had his hair slicked back.

"Senior Brother Chen, the sun’s about to set. Should I get you settled in first? We can discuss everything else tomorrow," Zhang Lin asked after his senior brother got into the car.

Chen Xin immediately replied, "Junior Brother, I think there’s still time for a shower and a meal. And we could meet up with our fellow alumna while we’re at it!"

"Right, right!" Zhang Lin grinned teasingly. ’This senior brother of mine really can’t wait.’

’He’s so eager. Why didn’t he try to hit on her before? Did he not have the chance? Or did he try and fail?’

’Trying and failing was probably the most likely reason.’

’After all, those other senior brothers in the chat group had the home-field advantage, and even they couldn’t make a move on her.’

Back at the farm, Zhang Lin got his senior brother settled in. While the man went to shower and change, Zhang Lin called Lin Muxue. "Senior Sister, how’s the plan for the moisturizing cream coming along? I’m treating you to dinner at the restaurant tonight so we can chat about it!"

"It’s rare for you, the boss, to offer a free meal. Of course, I’ll be there!" Lin Muxue replied.

Zhang Lin hung up and breathed a sigh of relief. ’Luring her over like this should be enough to satisfy Senior Brother Chen.’

That evening, Zhang Lin took Chen Xin to the restaurant. They had only just sat down when Lin Muxue arrived. Seeing someone else at the table, she shot Zhang Lin a questioning glance as she took her seat.

Zhang Lin immediately made the introductions. "Senior Sister, you’re here! This is our Senior Brother from university, Chen Xin. He’s a lawyer. I’ve actually had him review some of the farm’s contracts before!"

After the introduction, Chen Xin immediately extended his hand to Lin Muxue. "Lin Tongxue, we met a few times back at school, though I’m sure you don’t remember me!"

"Oh, I remember now! Chen Xin, from the law department!" Lin Muxue said, her face showing a flash of recognition. In reality, she had no idea who he was, but it wasn’t her style to make people lose face—not unless they were an enemy or someone she truly despised.

But her words made Chen Xin grin from ear to ear.

While speaking, Lin Muxue pretended to glance at her phone, but she was actually typing a message.

A moment later, Zhang Lin received her message:

"????"

First came a string of question marks.

Then came the question: "My dear President Zhang, where on earth did you find this alumnus? Don’t you dare try to set me up!"

Clearly, his senior sister had seen right through his plan.

It was a difficult message to reply to, so he simply pretended he hadn’t seen it. But just then, his senior sister smiled and said, "Chen Xin, you haven’t changed a bit after all these years! If anything, you’ve gotten more handsome!"

Hearing this, Chen Xin couldn’t suppress his smile at all. "Not at all, not at all. I’m still the same!"

"..." Zhang Lin pursed his lips.

’So when it comes to women, all men are the same, regardless of their profession.’

’Don’t people online always say that lawyers are calm and clear-headed? That they don’t fall for emotional traps?’
