Chapter 267: Stark, a Generation Lower Than Me

"Why is this guy so showy?"

Stark was complaining madly in his heart.

A long black coat, a dress inherited from European aristocrats, with fine golden lines on the black coat and gorgeous gems inlaid on the chest and cuffs.

Lin Jue, wearing clothes that looked extremely expensive, had a bright smile on his face and greeted the reporters who were taking pictures around him in a friendly manner.

Some of the ladies watching let out shrill screams. What could be more attractive to American women than a young and handsome grand duke!
The muscles on his face twitched slightly, and Stark felt the eyes that were originally on him shifted to that unusually dazzling guy. Looking at Lin Jue's handsome and sunny face, he felt a little insecure for the first time.

"Boz, who do you think is cooler, that guy or me?"

With a serious face, Stark stared at the secretary beside him, whose eyes were also fixed on Lin Jue, with an extremely subtle expression.

He is angry!

"Ah, of course it's Mr. Stark, but you have to admit that Grand Duke Lin Jue also possesses extraordinary charm."

Boz looked at the man next to her with some amusement, who seemed a little angry. After a short contact, she felt that she had understood the man's somewhat arrogant mentality.

"Shit, hasn't this guy always been very low-key? The information he provided is not accurate at all!"

Unable to hold back a complaint, Stark put on a smile and greeted Lin Jue, who was still waving at the girls who were screaming crazily around him.

"Ah, Stark, I finally meet you, my nephew!"

The smile on Stark's face froze instantly as he was about to say something polite.

The most undesirable situation still happened. Stark's memory went back to a few days ago. Trying to find clues about the relationship between Lin Jue and his father, he saw Lin Jue in the photo album left by Howard.

At that time, he simply couldn't believe his eyes. Looking at the photo and the date on it, and then at Lin Jue's face in the newspapers, Stark could only comfort himself in his heart that maybe this guy was the descendant of the legendary first American hero, Major General Lin Jue...

However, the reality was so cruel that before they got to know each other, his seniority dropped a lot in an instant...

Stark, who seemed a little mechanical and stiff, was kindly pulled by Lin Jue and walked into the magnificent hotel, surrounded by a large group of unfamiliar faces.

Feeling the burning gazes around him, Lin Jue's mouth corners curled up slightly.

……

"Shit, this isn't true, how is this possible?"

Stark shook his head and looked in disbelief at Lin Jue, who was smiling and looking at him with a "loving" expression.

Stark's face turned green as he looked at the face that seemed even younger than himself.

As for Boz, who understood what was happening, he almost wanted to pop his eyes out. No matter how he looked at it, the Grand Duke Lin Jue in front of him seemed younger than his own Stark.

How did he become an old friend of Stark's father?
"Stark! I'm sorry about what happened to your father... As you know, I had to leave America because of some things, so I missed the last time I saw your father and didn't witness your birth... Stark, I'm sorry that I haven't come to see you during this period of time!"

Lin Jue's face was filled with kindness, gentleness, and even a warm smile, as if he was looking at a promising junior, as he looked at Stark, whose face was a mixture of green and yellow.

At this moment, Stark felt extremely bitter in his heart. Looking at that extremely young face and listening to the words of the other party who called himself uncle, he wanted to jump out of the window of this hotel at this moment.

What the hell is this? "Ahem...Uncle Lin...When I saw the photo of you and my father, I couldn't believe my eyes. But according to science, the probability of two people who look exactly alike appearing in such a short time interval is already one in a billion. Plus, with your cooperation with my father, I had already guessed something."

Barely overcoming his inner embarrassment, Stark said a little restrainedly.

"Haha, Stark, it's a good thing that Howard left behind a son like you. I have to say that you and your father are really similar in some ways!"

Reaching out and gently patting Stark's shoulder, Lin Jue looked both elderly and very pleased.

Looking at Lin Jue who was always radiating kindness, Stark finally suppressed his inner resentment, and the two of them quickly became familiar with each other and talked cheerfully.

"Haha, your father was one of the two people I admired most in science at that time. I hope you can inherit his legacy and carry forward Stark Industries!"

Lin Jue chuckled.

Speaking of Stark Industries, Stark put away his somewhat ostentatious smile and said, "Uncle, this time, thanks to your care from Yongye, otherwise, Stark Industries would have suffered a heavy blow."

"Alas, no one expected the accident to come so suddenly. If I had returned to America earlier, maybe I could have seen your father, but now... Alas, my condolences, Stark!"

"Thanks……"

"Stark, if you need any help in the future, just come and find me. Even if I'm not here, you can still find Yongye. I've talked to that guy Aldridge, so don't be polite with me!"

Lin Jue laughed softly, and he couldn't help but pat the shoulder of the young man in front of him. He couldn't help it, this feeling was too good.

Stark also took it as a matter of course, but he seemed to have thought of something and looked hesitant.

"Your Excellency, Grand Duke Yongye, perhaps we need some help now..."

Looking at the hesitant Stark, Boz spoke quickly.

"But it doesn't matter!"

A hint of curiosity flashed across his face, and Lin Jue responded happily.

"..."

"So, you need me to reconnect Stark Industries with the National Defense?"

"That's right. Because of Mr. Howard's accident, Hammer Industries replaced us as the largest partner of the U.S. National Defense. They squeezed out many of our industries and even sold arms at extremely low prices. For Stark Industries now, this is like adding insult to injury!"

"Well... maybe I can help you guys right now!"

With a smile on his face, Lin Jue looked at the man in military uniform who was striding towards them.

"Major General Lin Jue! You have finally returned to American soil!"

The visitor's face flushed, his expression was mixed with admiration and worship. He subconsciously adjusted his straight military uniform with his hands, and the shoulder badge of the rank of major general looked extremely dazzling.

"Oh? Does this gentleman know me?"

In the surprised eyes of Stark and Boz, Lin Jue showed a "confused" look.
