"Xiao Tian, have you thought it over? If you find your brother, you won’t be the heir of the Yun Family anymore, and you’ll lose a lot," Lin Tian said with a smile, probing slightly.
Yun Xiaotian looked at the traffic outside the car window, as if considering sothing, then said resolutely, "As long as my brother can co back alive, I am willing to exchange everything for it, including the position as the heir to the Yun Family. To , nothing is more important than family."
"It’s just a pity that in a vast sea of people, finding one person is harder than finding a needle in a haystack," Lin Tian sighed. Yun Xiaotian’s persistence was admirable, but things don’t always go as one wishes.
Yun Xiaotian, however, said firmly, "I believe that if my brother is still alive, the bond of blood will surely bring us together again. Perhaps we have already t, but the timing wasn’t right, and fate hasn’t allowed us to recognize each other yet."
Lin Tian noticed the peculiar look in his eyes and couldn’t help saying, "You still haven’t given up on thinking that I’m your brother, have you? It seems you ca today not just to purchase dicine but also to recognize family."
"I hope this doesn’t bring trouble to Brother Lin. I just don’t want to miss even a one in a thousand, or one in ten thousand chance. Even if there’s just a slight possibility, I don’t want to overlook it."
"Moreover, when I first t Brother Lin, I felt a strong affinity. Perhaps this is fate in the making?" Yun Xiaotian said with an optimistic smile.
Lin Tian shook his head in silence, not wanting to say anything that would discourage him. Even though he was an orphan and his age matched, he wouldn’t believe he was the eldest son of the Yun Family, because he didn’t have that feeling.
When he saw Yun Xiaotian, Lin Tian didn’t feel that familial connection. Blood ties are a very subtle thing. He thought Yun Xiaotian was a good young man, but that was all.
The two didn’t speak anymore, and Lin Tian drove on. The location of the pharmaceutical factory was ntioned by Miss the last ti, and Lin Tian vaguely rembered the route. Besides, with the powerful navigation system of the bulletproof car, finding a factory wasn’t difficult.
The Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company was outside the suburban area. Back then, due to environntal protections, all manufacturing plants in Xikou City were moved out of the city, and the pharmaceutical company was no exception.
Lin Tian drove for about half an hour to reach the suburbs, where the Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company was very prominent—a vast campus located beside the highway.
At first glance, besides buildings of various heights, there were more tall trees, which showed that the Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company had excellent greenery.
The company’s main entrance was large, with a row of vertical characters: Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company, the na of the company and a subsidiary of the Xiao Group.
Outside stood a middle-aged man in a suit, with short hair, so even though he was middle-aged, he looked energetic and didn’t have the belly of a typical middle-aged man.
Seeing the bulletproof car appear, the middle-aged man started waving his hand and shouting sothing.
"Brother Lin, that’s the district general manager of the Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company, Shu Junwu. I’ve t him once before," Yun Xiaotian said upon seeing the middle-aged man.
Lin Tian gave Yun Xiaotian a surprised look. This kid was impressive, rembering soone’s appearance, position, and na after seeing them just once.
Yun Xiaotian wasn’t an ordinary person; he was the heir to the Yun Family and had t many business magnates. Rembering even a district general manager was truly remarkable.
Yun Xiaotian seed to have noticed Lin Tian’s puzzlent and smiled, saying, "Brother Lin, don’t be surprised. As the heir of the Yun Family, rembering people is a basic ability. If I can’t even rember those I’ve t, how can I establish personal connections?"
"It seems I had so misconceptions about rich kids, thinking they were all playboys. Even if they aren’t, there’s no need for them to rack their brains like ordinary people to make money," Lin Tian laughed. Saying this in front of a rich kid felt a bit odd.
Yun Xiaotian just smiled and wasn’t overly excited, stating, "I admit, there are quite a few rich kids like that, and dia reports have exaggerated their numbers, giving people a bad impression. But in reality, we face greater survival pressure."
Yun Xiaotian didn’t seem modest, more like self-deprecating, as he lightly said, "Maybe Brother Lin can’t fully grasp these words, but it’s true. Many people only need to earn enough to support themselves, at most their family, so their pressure is just family survival pressure."
"But for us, we carry the weight of the entire family. The entire family’s future rests on people like us. Don’t be fooled by the size of the Yun Family. Once my grandfather is gone, if my father can’t hold it together, the family will decline. If it falls to my generation and I fail, disintegration may happen overnight."
"Don’t be fooled by the size of the Yun Family. Even a grand family can crumble quickly, maybe even overnight, falling into the dust. A healthy tiger may be intimidating to a pack of wolves, but once the tiger is old or injured, the pack can rush in and tear it to pieces in an instant."
"The Yun Family is like this, so is the Li Family. No family is exempt. The pressure on the eldest son of the Li Family is no less than mine," Yun Xiaotian said calmly, with a maturity beyond his years.
Lin Tian didn’t know whether to feel happy or sad for him. Being born into a wealthy family, not being in control of one’s own life, is not just an arrogant and irritating statent.
As they talked, the car arrived beside the middle-aged man. Lin Tian parked the car, and he and Yun Xiaotian got out to et the man. There was no doubt that Miss had inford him, and the company’s leader ca out to greet them.
"Mr. Yun, Mr. Lin, hello. I am Shu Junwu, the responsible person in charge of the company. Welco to Xiao Biopharmaceutical Company. Normally, for the visit of Mr. Yun and Mr. Lin, we shouldn’t be too frugal, but President Xiao instructed us to keep it low-key," the middle-aged man said politely, with a hint of apology.
"No need for formalities, President Shu. We’re just here to select so herbs. I think Xiao Tian prefers to keep things low-key as well," Lin Tian said.
"Brother Lin is right. This ti, I’m visiting in a private capacity, not for anything else. Miss Xiao’s arrangent suits perfectly," Yun Xiaotian agreed.
Hearing Young Master Yun calling Lin Tian "Brother Lin," Shu Junwu couldn’t help but be surprised. He only heard from Miss Xiao that Lin Tian was a new shareholder of the group, but compared to the first-in-line heir of the Yun Family, his status was far off.
Yet now, the first-in-line heir of the Yun Family was calling Lin Tian "Brother Lin." What was going on?
However, Shu Junwu hadn’t been a general manager for just one day; he knew what to ask and what not to. So things were best kept in mind without questioning.
Exchanging a few pleasantries, Shu Junwu got in the car to guide them into the company, with Yun Xiaotian’s Cadillac bulletproof car naturally following in.
