Lin Xi moved towards the mirror first perhaps the glint that reflected the light caught his eyes. He was intrigued by his other self that was reflected in the mirror. He reached out his hand maybe in an attempt to get to know and make friends with the other him.

His fingers touched the cold surface of the mirror and proceeded to smudge the silvery surface. The stain distorted the reflection and he could not see his ”friend” anymore so Lin Xi swiftly moved on.

After crawling for a short distance, Lin Xi probably got tired and he sat down on his butt. His eyes scanned the rest of the items with seriousness like an appraiser silently evaluating a piece of unearthed artifact… or at least that was what Lin Kang believed his son was doing.

When he was done finished resting, Lin Xi climbed off his butt and continued crawling. Under his father's gaze that was filled with anticipation, he crawled towards the set of building blocks.

The building blocks were made from plastic and came in different shapes, sizes and colours. Their edges were smoothed down so the child would not accidentally injure himself while playing.

Lin Xi sat before the blocks and started to stack them up on top of each other. He seemed to be wholly absorbed in his play time.

Lin Kang smiled to himself when he saw this. The set of building blocks was particularly meaningful to him because they represented a future in real estate and construction, something that he was dealing in.

Lin Corp's empire was huge and they crossed many fields but at its center, Elder Lin started the company from having a precise eye in real estate investment. That was the company's history and the root of the Lin family's prestige and power.

Even though Elder Lin still handled some of the more special cases, like those with old clients who were personal friends of Elder Lin, most of the company's business had been handed over to Lin Kang.

Just like how he had taken the mantle over from his father, Lin Kang hoped that Lin Xi would inherit the business from him and continue to write this history.

If the result of the Zhao Zhou was anything to go by, his wish would become a reality. Lin Kang was not a superstitious person but he was relieved and thankful when he saw the result.

Lin Kang smiled indulgently as his son toyed with the blocks, building some sort of strange building. When he was done, Lin Xi giggled, clapping his hands like he found great pleasure in this activity.

Lin Kang watched his son for a little longer before leaving him be and he turned back to focus on his own work.
