Chapter 548: One step in, the dust has settled
Shui Linglong appeared on the stage, and everyone was either shocked or surprised.
But there was one person at the scene who looked as calm as ever. This person was Lin Tian.
It's not that Lin Tian had expected Shui Linglong to come, but no matter what kind of person was present today, Lin Tian would not have any mood swings.
Not to mention a princess from the Taiping Alliance.
Even if the founder of the Taiping Alliance came, Lin Tian would not look at him with a straight eye.
But others cannot be as calm as Lin Tian.
After all, the Taiping Alliance was one of the top three behemoths in the provincial capital where there were countless wealthy families and strong men.
It is also known as the number one force in Jiangnan martial arts!
No one dares to look down upon such an existence!
"I didn't expect Miss Shui to come in person. It really makes my family happy!"
Ren Changqing hugged Shui Linglong with a smile on his face.
Although it was just a simple fist-cup salute, as the leader of the Ren family who has not yet stepped down, and as a senior junior, Ren Changqing was the first to give a fist-cup salute to a junior like Shui Linglong, which is enough to show how much Ren Changqing valued Shui Linglong.
"Mr. Ren, you're welcome."
Shui Linglong smiled lightly, "You and my old man are old acquaintances and friends. Today is such a grand event for the Ren family, so naturally the Taiping Alliance will come to support it."
Shui Linglong's words gave Ren Changqing enough face, and at the same time, it also invisibly improved the status of the Ren family.
"Miss Shui is interested. When you go back, say hello to your old man for me."
Ren Changqing nodded with a smile, and then changed the subject, "I wonder which of them Miss Ren is more optimistic about?"
Shui Linglong glanced at Lin Tian provocatively, "I'm more optimistic about Ren..."
Suddenly, Shui Linglong paused, and her deliberately long voice aroused everyone's appetite.
Just when everyone was eagerly awaiting Shui Linglong's next words.
Shui Linglong suddenly chuckled.
"Mr. Ren, does it matter who I favor?"
Ren Changqing smiled and nodded, "Miss Shui, given your status, it is indeed important who you favor!"
"Then I'll tell the truth." Shui Linglong glanced at Lin Tian again, but when she saw Lin Tian's face was calm and he didn't even look at her, she felt inexplicably angry in her heart.
But then he seemed to think of something again, and he hummed softly, "I'm more optimistic about Ren Yuanjie!"
Suddenly, the scene was in an uproar.
Yun Bufan and others' eyes widened with disbelief on their faces.
How is this going?
How come Ren Yuanjie, whom Lin Tian supports, is favored by Shui Linglong?
Before that, hadn't Lin Tian already offended Shui Linglong?
Why is Shui Linglong standing on the same front as Lin Tian at this time? !
Not to mention Yun Bufan's confusion, even Ren Changqing was puzzled.
"What does Miss Shui mean? Why don't I understand?"
Unexpectedly, Shui Linglong's answer was wrong, "Mr. Ren, I have two purposes for coming today. One is to support you, and the other is to help someone return to your Ren family."
As soon as Shui Linglong said these words, the curiosity of everyone present was completely aroused.
Who can be helped by Shui Linglong? !
"I am getting more and more confused after what Miss Shui said." Ren Changqing smiled and shook his head, "Miss Shui, can you speak frankly?"
"Then I won't beat around the bush." Shui Linglong suddenly looked at Ren Wenfang, who was standing next to Lin Tian.
"I'm going to help sister Ren return to the Ren family today!"
Sister Ren?
Which sister Ren? !
Everyone at the scene was confused, looking at each other and looking left and right.
Lin Tian's eyes showed surprise, because Shui Linglong was already walking towards Ren Wenfang at this time.
"Sister Ren, do you still remember me?"
Ren Wenfang's eyes widened, looking at Shui Linglong with a smile as bright as a flower in disbelief and wonder.
"Miss Shui, of course I know you, but..."
"Sister Ren doesn't need to say anything." Shui Linglong interrupted with a smile, "I know that sister Ren came to the Ren family just to rewrite her name on the Ren family's genealogy."
"So I plan to help you complete this matter. Sister Ren will not refuse my kindness, right?"
Ren Wenfang's head suddenly buzzed with seeds, and he was completely confused.
Lin Tian's lips moved silently a few times.
Ren Wenfang seemed to be shocked by something. He came back to his senses and looked at Lin Tian aside, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
Lin Tian shook his head with a half-smile.
Ren Wenfang nodded, "Since Miss Shui is willing to help me, I am very grateful!"
Ren Wenfang said, bowing to Shui Linglong.
"Sister Ren doesn't have to be like this!"
Shui Linglong quickly held Ren Wenfang's arm, lifted her up, and turned to look at everyone with dull faces.
"Mr. Ren, you should have heard what I just said, right?"
"And I am very optimistic about Ren Yuanjie becoming the new head of the Ren family!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.
Ren Yunfei, Ren Yonghe and other members of the direct lineage of the Ren family became extremely ugly.
As for the side branches of the Ren family, all of them looked happy.
It can be said that except for Lin Tian, everyone's emotions at the scene experienced huge fluctuations, including Mr. Ren and Ren Changqing.
After several seconds, Ren Changqing reached out and pressed down.
The scene gradually quieted down.
"Since even Miss Shui is optimistic about Ren Yuanjie, I declare that from today on, Ren Yuanjie will be the head of the Ren family and will be in charge of the Ren family on my behalf!"
Ren Changqing is a mature man, and he understands that although Ren Yunfei's voice is louder than Ren Yuanjie's right now.
But the person Ren Yunfei invited to the platform was no match for Ren Yuanjieqing.
What's more, even the princesses of the Taiping Alliance have come forward to support Ren Yuanjie in person, so what reason does he have to oppose?
You must know that the Ren family is an ancient martial arts family that has declined, and its inheritance has now lost its peak glory.
Without the support of big forces and big families as a solid backing, the Ren family would definitely disappear in the long river of time a hundred years later.
It wouldn't even take a hundred years, but at most a dozen years, the Ren family would disappear permanently from the provincial capital.
So what the Ren family needs most now is connections and energy!
Although Ren Changqing knew that it was absurd to choose the new head of the family in this way, he had no choice now.
As Ren Changqing announced the final result, the entire scene was filled with sighs.
No one thought that Ren Yunfei, who had a chance to win, would eventually become Ren Yuanjie's foil, accompanying Ren Yuanjie to become the new head of the Ren family!
"I have really become the head of the family. This is true..."
Ren Yuanjie muttered to himself with a dull expression on his face.
Ren Wenfang, who was on the side, quickly tugged on his sleeve, "Thanks to Mr. Lin. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been able to become the new head of the family!"
Ren Yuanjie finally reacted and quickly bowed to Lin Tian.
"Mr. Lin..."
"No need to say thank you for your kindness." Lin Tian raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't forget what you promised me before!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will never break my promise!"
Lin Tian was laughing and laughing.
Yun Bufan's group's faces were as dark as water.
None of them thought that Ren Yuanjie would make a comeback!
What happened next was much simpler.
Ren Yuanjie, who became the new head of the family, immediately announced that Ren Wenfang would return to the family and write her name in the family tree.
This made Ren Wenfang shed tears of emotion on the spot, and she instinctively wanted to hug Lin Tian.
Lin Tian seemed to have expected it, and pulled Xiaobei aside to stand in front of Ren Wenfang.
"Miss Ren, isn't this what you want to see? Why are you crying?"
Ren Wenfang was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and quickly bowed to Lin Tian with a blushing face.
"Thank you Mr. Lin, if it weren't for you..."
"There's no need to be polite, Miss Ren. I just can't bear to see you orphans and widowed mothers suffer."
As soon as Lin Tian said these words, Xiao Bei suddenly hugged Lin Tian's waist, raised his tender face, and thanked him with gratitude.
"Thank you, Brother Lin. My mother and I both thank you..."
Lin Tian looked at Xiaobei who started to cry while talking, smiled and rubbed her head.
"From today on, you are the daughter of the Ren family. Why are you crying? Don't act like a little brat."
