On the other side.

Lin Dashan hung up the phone.

"Two of Bamboo!" Zhang Fuyong laughed heartily. "Mahjong!"

Zhang Fuyong and the three Lin brothers were gathered together, playing mahjong. Most of the money had ended up in Zhang Fuyong's pockets. Everyone couldn't help but suspect that the Zhang father and daughter had a natural talent for it.

Lin Dahu refused to give up. "Come on, let's keep going!"

Less than twenty minutes later, a server walked in.

"Boss Lin, there's someone outside looking for a Mr. Lin Dashan!"

As Lin Dashan drew a tile, he asked, "Who's looking for me?"

"They didn't say, only that they were looking for you!"

Lin Dashan's eyes widened. "Wait a minute, I think I'm about to win this hand, just a moment…"

Lin Dahu laughed. "What's wrong, Little Bro? Losing your nerve?"

SLAP!

Lin Dashan slammed down a Five of Bamboo and revealed his hand. "Hahaha, a pure suit, self-drawn! This hand is a complete turnaround!"

"Pay up, pay up!"

The server spoke again. "There's someone outside looking for you, Boss Lin."

Only then did Lin Dashan remember. Someone looking for me during the New Year? Could it be an old friend?

"I'll go take a look. Wait for me!"

Zhang Fuyong stood up. "I've been sitting for two hours. I'm going to stretch my legs."

Lin Dahu and Lin Daan also got to their feet.

"There's a small food stall outside. Let's go see if they're still there," Lin Dahu said, rubbing his belly. "I'm getting hungry."

The group left the teahouse together.

Outside, they saw a dark green SUV parked. They were all immediately taken with its design.

Lin Dahu let out a whistle. "Hey, look at that. This SUV is pretty nice."

Lin Daan nodded. "It is nice. The price must be nice, too."

Zhang Fuyong knew a bit about cars. "Judging by the design, it must be a new model from the last year or two."

Lin Dahu chuckled. "What do you say? Would we look cool driving a car like this at our age?" Before Lin Daan could reply, he answered himself with a laugh. "It would definitely make us look younger."

At that moment, a staff member from the dealership, who had been waiting by the teahouse, took out the photo Lin Feng had given him. After comparing it, he walked over and asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Lin Dashan?"

A bewildered Lin Dashan responded, "I am. And you are?"

The staff member said cheerfully, "It's like this: your son, Lin Feng, has a gift for you."

Lin Dashan was taken aback. "A gift? What kind of gift?"

The staff member pointed to the SUV they had just been discussing. "This is the gift from your son."

After a long moment of shock, Lin Dashan finally asked, "For real? This isn't some kind of scam, is it?" It was the New Year, and he didn't want to be swindled.

The staff member handed the documents and the car keys to Lin Dashan. He then made a call to Lin Feng. "Hello, Mr. Lin, I've delivered the vehicle to your father…"

Lin Dashan hastily waved him over. "Let me say a few words to him."

On the other end of the line, it was indeed Lin Feng.

"Lin Feng, why did you buy me a car? I already have one."

"I drove your car last time, and I felt it had some safety issues. You should take it in for a check-up in a couple of days. Consider this SUV my New Year's gift to you."

Lin Dashan was touched by his son's thoughtfulness. "You bought me this car? Isn't this the kind of car you young people drive?"

Lin Feng laughed. "Who says you're old? Anyway, I'm busy over here, so I have to go."

Lin Dashan handed the phone back, his head still spinning.

The staff member handed him a business card. "If you need anything in the future, you can call me. Here's my card."

Lin Dashan hesitated for a moment before asking, "So, um, how much did this car cost?"

"One million two hundred thousand."

Once the man left, Lin Dashan stood in front of the car. He grumbled under his breath, but he couldn't hide the massive smile on his face. "That kid… Why spend so much money? It's not like I don't have a car."

Zhang Fuyong smiled. "It's a heartfelt gift from your son. Just accept it."

Lin Daan was green with envy.

Lin Dahu circled the car, his curiosity piqued. He urged Lin Dashan, "Come on, let's take it for a spin and see how it feels!"

Lin Dashan, being the youngest of his brothers, wasn't old at all—not even fifty yet. Sitting in the car, he suddenly felt much younger.

As soon as Lin Dahu got in, he praised its comfort. "Look at this! A million-plus SUV really is different…"

"Little Bro, come on, drive so we can get a feel for it!"

Lin Dashan rubbed his hands in eager anticipation. "Hold on, let me figure out what all these buttons do first!"

Ten minutes later, Lin Dashan started the engine.

Lin Dahu cheered, "Listen to that sound! Let's go!"

Lin Dahu rolled down the window, whooping with excitement. "Wow! This feeling… one word: awesome!"

The ride was incredibly smooth, and the field of vision was extremely wide. Lin Dashan went from initial reluctance to falling in love with the feeling the SUV gave him.

Lin Dahu chuckled. "Little Bro, come on, let's drive this thing like a real off-road vehicle."

Lin Dashan asked, "How do we do that?"

"I know the perfect road. Come on, I'll show you the way."

The four older men laughed in the car like a bunch of young guys. They arrived at a bumpy, potholed concrete road.

Lin Dashan took a deep breath. "Here we go!"

"Charge!"

The feeling was marvelous. It was bumpy, sure, but in a comfortable way. After driving to the end of the road, Lin Dashan turned around and drove it all over again.

"Hahaha… We should try more of these things you young people do. This is fun!"

"I feel ten years younger!"

"Damn, now I want to buy one too."

"Little Bro, let me drive! I want to feel it too!" Lin Dahu, the most talkative of the group, chattered away nonstop.

The car was like a new toy, and they were like little kids taking turns driving it. They had an absolute blast!

Finally, they were tired from all the fun. Lin Dahu looked out the window at the passing scenery. "Little Bro, you're really living the good life."

As parents, their greatest pride is raising successful children. Lin Feng is a good kid; he knows how to be filial. He didn't get arrogant just because he made money. Unlike my own kid, who gets a huge ego from earning a million or two. In reality, that's nothing special.

「Meanwhile…」

The women were out shopping, which of course meant buy, buy, buy! Zhao Lizhen was the type of person who, if she liked something and it was within her budget, simply had to buy it. Yet she wasn't an impulsive spender; she was still rational enough to bargain with the sellers. Such purchasing power was something the other women could only dream of.

In her youth, Zhao Lizhen had been a renowned dancer and had built up a considerable network of contacts through her hard work. She later opened a dance troupe with a few friends, and business was booming.

This time, she even bought an outfit for Second Aunt, Third Aunt, Eldest Aunt, and Zhou Cuilan, with each piece costing no less than twenty thousand. She paid without even batting an eye.

When they were about done shopping, Zhou Cuilan called the men. "What are the plans for tonight?"

Lin Dashan's voice on the phone was absolutely beaming. "You ladies can figure it out yourselves. We're busy right now."

Zhou Cuilan wanted to scold him, but thinking that it was the New Year, she held her tongue.

Zhao Lizhen asked, "What are their plans?"

"He said we should decide what we want to eat."

"I don't know. I'm fine with anything."

Zhou Cuilan thought for a moment. "I'll call the kids and ask if they want to have dinner with us."

「Elsewhere…」

Lin Feng received a reward from the system.

DING!

[System Notification]

[For accompanying your baby to welcome the New Year and fulfilling your duties as a father, you have been rewarded!]

[Reward: One luxury yacht!]

[The yacht is moored at the east bank mooring of the Mei River. All certifications are in order. Please feel free to use it!]

Taking the opportunity to go to the restroom, Lin Feng pulled out the documents to have a look. The yacht was 10 meters long and 4 meters wide, with two decks and a maximum speed of 200 kilometers per hour. Included were photos of the yacht; it was off-white with gold trim and looked absolutely beautiful.

Lin Feng hadn't expected the system to give him such an explosive reward on the first day of the New Year!

Does that mean… I can take the yacht out on the Mei River tonight?
