Initially, some viewers in the livestream, struck by the hilarious exchange between Mr. Lin and Mr. Qian, took screenshots of the exchange, captioned them, and shared them online as funny pictures.

However, soon after the pictures were posted, eagle-eyed netizens recognized Mr. Qian: 

[Holy crap! I know who that person is in the picture!]

[Who?] another netizen demanded.

[Qian Jinyi!]

[I asked why does he look so familiar! It’s because I saw his picture in a newspaper article before!]

Following this lead, netizens quickly unearthed various online news reports and photos of Qian Jinyi at charity auctions and donation ceremonies.

Comparisons confirmed that the man in the news photos and Mr. Qian in the livestream screenshots were identical.

[This old man is truly amazing…]

Still, some uninformed netizens continued to ask: [They say if you don’t understand, just ask. So, who exactly is Qian Jinyi? Is he that impressive?]

Dozens of replies immediately poured in:

[You don’t even know Qian Jinyi?]

[If you don’t know, I suggest you look it up online.]

[You don’t know Qian Jinyi, but you should know Qian Yishu, right?]

[Original Poster: I know!] Although he didn’t know who ‘Qian Yishu’ actually was, almost every university has a ‘Qian Yishu Building.’

[This Qian Jinyi is Qian Yishu’s son.]

[As for whether or not he’s impressive… let’s put it this way: in the center of City V, just past the monument, there’s a whole commercial street owned by the Qian family.
And back then, there was a national-level scientific research project that was supposedly fully funded by the Qian family, remember that?

Also, it was Qian Jinyi who bought back that national treasure, the Chizui, which was lost abroad, and returned it to the nation. Isn’t that impressive?]

[OP: Wow, so rich?]

[That’s quite a lot.]

[And don’t judge people by wealth lists. Those so-called rich lists only count publicly disclosed assets. Truly wealthy and aristocratic families, can they really tell you how much they have in assets? Not to mention the many intangible assets they have.]

..….

A single stone stirred up a thousand waves—with the revelation of Mr. Qian’s identity, more and more netizens online became curious about the Lin family’s background.

Judging from the livestream footage of how Mr. Lin interacted with Qian Jinyi, and from the words he used to introduce Lin Momo, it was clear that the two elders had been friends for many years, and the relationship between the two families was very likely a long-standing one.

Being such close friends with the Qian family, the Lin family must be quite impressive.

And judging by the aggression with which Mr. Lin confronted Mr. Qian, he clearly outshined the other.

… …

Realizing this, netizens were immediately agitated:

[If that’s true, then Lin Cheng is more than just a wealthy second-generation kid!] 

[So…Is he truly a child from a wealthy family?]

[I can’t even imagine…]

… …

While rumors had been circulating online that Lin Cheng’s family was wealthy, no one anticipated this potential for even greater wealth.

Unfortunately, little information about Lin Cheng’s background was available online, and the Lin family has always maintained a low profile. Despite extensive online searches, netizens were unable to find any direct evidence of Lin Cheng’s background.

The topic of #LinCheng’sTrueBackground# continued to trend and escalate.

While the internet was bustling with activity, the Lin family remained peaceful and tranquil.

Apart from the occasional arguments between Grandpa Lin and Grandpa Qian, everything was harmonious.

After dinner, Lin Momo, Lin Cheng and Grandpa Lin sent Grandpa Qian off together.

Before leaving, Grandpa Qian did not forget to invite Lin Momo to their home to play. “Great-grandpa Qian has a lot of small animals at home, including a talking parrot and a goldfish that can play football. Remember to ask your great-grandfather to bring you to our home to play. When you come to my home, I can also teach you how to fish.”

“Okay,” Lin Momo readily agreed. She has actually developed a strong interest in the ‘treasure trove’ that Grandpa Qian mentioned.

Seeing Lin Momo’s eyes shining, Grandpa Lin snorted without giving Grandpa Qian face, and looked down on him, “What’s so good about those little broken things of yours…

“Hurry back and take care of your little broken things, so that more of them don’t run away.” Old Master Lin said rudely. At this point, in his eyes, the other party had become a bad old man who was trying to abduct his good great-granddaughter.

… …

After finally sending Old Master Qian away, Old Master Lin hurriedly took Lin Momo back to the house and asked Butler Zhou to take out his tea set to show to his great-granddaughter, elegant and graceful.

Knowing that Old Master Lin was deliberately stalling for time to make Lin Momo stay here a little longer, Lin Cheng nevertheless did not point out the old man’s little trick.

Lin Momo also sat obediently opposite Old Master Lin, holding a teacup and drinking tea with him in a proper manner.

However, in order to prevent Lin Momo from being unable to sleep at night because of the tea, Old Master Lin’s cup was tea, but Lin Momo’s cup was mostly water.

To prevent his great-granddaughter from thinking he was less knowledgeable than Old Master Qian, Grandpa Lin sipped tea and lectured Lin Momo on tea culture.

However, Grandpa Lin was himself a half-baked expert, and before long, he has run out of things to say.

Grandpa Lin awkwardly sipped his tea, excusing himself while also taking a swipe at Grandpa Qian, “I spent most of my time working, taking care of our company. Unlike that fellow Qian, who spends all day tinkering with those junk, not really doing his job…”

Grandpa Lin’s words were true: while the Lin family’s ancestors had inherited a wealth of assets, it was his generation that truly consolidated and expanded them.

Hearing Old Master Lin talk about their company, Lin Momo’s interest was piqued. She pressed him, “Great-grandpa, Dad said our company is big. Is that true?” 

“Of course, it’s big,” Old Man Lin declared proudly. The Lin family wasn’t just big in terms of having many subsidiaries; the main business was already immense and powerful.
