Chapter 42
The call was from Lin Zhen.
After the Lin family agreed to buy a car last time, Lin Mu never received a call from the Lin family again. This time the Lin family called, and Lin Mu thought it was about the car, so she pressed answer. On the other end of the phone, Lin Zhen spoke calmly.
She said, "I'm in the coffee shop downstairs of the TV station. Come find me in the box."
Lin Zhen made an appointment with her to meet alone.
This was a very strange thing, because Lin Mu had grown so old, and this was the first time Lin Zhen asked her to meet alone. When she wanted to ask something, Lin Zhen had already hung up the phone.
Worried that if she lets him go this time, her father will be angry and refuse to buy her a car. After talking to Tao Zi, Lin Mu went to the cafe downstairs.
Arriving at the private room of the coffee shop, Lin Zhen was sitting by the window, thinking about something. Lin Mu called daddy, and Lin Zhen came back to his senses, responded with a faint tone, and motioned for her to sit down opposite him.
Lin Mu went over and sat down. There were only the father and daughter in the box. It was the first time for the two of them to meet face to face, and the atmosphere was quite subtle. But Lin Mu did not appreciate the subtlety, and she was anxious to go back to the rehearsal.
Fortunately, Lin Zhen was not willing to chat with her and said straight to the point, "You and Xu Yanchen have a baby. After the baby is born, in addition to the car I promised to buy you, I will also buy you a house."
Lin Zhen's voice echoed in the box, interrupting Lin Mu's anxious thoughts about going back to the rehearsal. She was stunned for a moment, and Lin Zhen across from him didn't look like he was joking at all. Lin Mu was quiet for a few seconds, and after a while, she smiled
, asked “Why give birth to a child?”
Lin Mu did not agree to what he just said, but asked such nonsense. Lin Zhen frowned and said displeased, "Of course it is to stabilize the relationship between the two of you."
Lin Town received news a few days ago that Xu Yanchen sent people to explore the market in Huaicheng. The building materials market in his hands was only open to cooperation with City A and the Lin Group, but he reached out to Huaicheng and brought
He took Lin Mu to the banquet to meet Huaicheng's clients and let them know that he was Lin Zhen's son-in-law, so they could feel free to cooperate with him.
He knew that Xu Yanchen would not cooperate with the Lin Group so honestly, but he did not expect him to act so quickly. If he hadn't had an informant in Huaicheng, he would have taken advantage of him.
This man's every move was so unpredictable that Lin Zhen believed that he was no match for him. He got the building materials market back then entirely due to good luck. If Xu Yanchen's father had one-third of his
He can't even take over one's talents.
How could his hard-earned things be snatched back before he could fully enjoy them?
Lin Zhen didn't want to think about the conflict, otherwise the Lin Group would be severely damaged. Since the Lin and Xu families are married, they must make full use of this relationship. Judging from the two times Xu Yanchen and Lin Mu returned home, it can be seen that Xu Yanchen
He has some thoughts about his eldest daughter. If he makes good use of it, maybe things can turn around.
But he was making his own plans, but Lin Mu didn't follow him.
Sitting on the sofa in the booth, the marble tabletop was cold, Lin Mu said, "This is to consolidate the relationship between Lin and Xu's family."
When she said this, she paused, smiled again, and said to Lin Zhen, "But can the relationship between Lin and Xu's family be stable with just one child?"
At this point, Lin Zhen didn't care so much. He didn't listen to Lin Mu's nagging and just said, "You do as I say."
Even now, he still speaks to her in a commanding tone, and he thinks that she will carry out his orders. In his heart, she was dispensable before, but now she is to keep the Lin family's reproductive tools.
Lin Mu felt a little cold in her heart, and her words also brought a hint of coolness. She smiled and said, "What if I don't listen?"
"Then don't want the car anymore." Lin Mu's disobedience made Lin Zhen burst out uncontrollably. The smell filled the cafe's private room instantly.
Lin Mu looked at his father quietly and said, "I will talk to Xu Yanchen."
As if he didn't expect her to be so rebellious, Lin Zhen's eyes were boiling with anger, and he pointed at her and said, "Okay, your wings are stiff. My Lin family has raised you for more than 20 years, and now you dare to bend your elbows outward."
When the conversation came to this point, Lin Mu was not in the mood to continue the conversation. She had not eaten breakfast since she went to the TV station in the morning, and she had not eaten lunch because she came to see him. She did not expect to hear such nonsense after arriving.
No matter how he pointed, Lin Mu cocked her neck and looked directly at him, saying, "My elbow has always been turned toward me more than twenty years ago. You did something wrong and betrayed the Xu family. Just because I am you."
My daughter, Xu Yanchen will never be able to trust me, and he will never be able to have a heart-to-heart with me. If he really wants to harm the Lin family in the future, it will be in vain even if I give him ten children. This is your own business, and you have done something wrong.
Please accept the punishment yourself. Why should I bear the responsibility for the mistakes you have made?"
The girl's voice gradually became louder, and her eyes became slightly red. For a moment, Lin Zhen was speechless.
At this point, Lin Mu suppressed the sourness in the corners of her eyes. She remembered what Xu Yanchen said to her that day. He said that couples should express their gratitude with love, but her belief in love had all died in her senior year of high school.
.
She and Xu Yanchen look exactly the same now as they did in high school.
"You may not know, but I committed suicide when I was in high school because of the debt my mother owed." Lin Mu calmed down. After speaking, she sneered and said, "Yes, you don't know. I took sleeping pills at that time.
, I slept for two days with no one paying attention, but in the end I didn’t die.”
Speaking of this, Lin Mu smiled self-deprecatingly. She stood up from her seat, looked at her father opposite, and said lightly, "I have already lost my life once because of my mother's fault, and I will not lose my life again because of my father's fault."
the second time."
After Lin Mu finished speaking, he left without looking back.
Lin Mu's mood swings were too great just now, and Lin Mu seemed to have fallen into a bad memory again. When he returned to the studio, his face was pale.
A colleague sat aside and saw that her face was not very good, so he expressed concern. Lin Mu smiled and said it was okay, and went to the bathroom to wash his face.
After washing his face, Lin Mu looked up at himself in the mirror and felt that he was too funny.
Was she born to pay off their debts?
After patting her face, Lin Mu told herself not to think too much. She had to record a show tonight. It was her first time as a host, so she had to be energetic.
The midday episode passed in a flash, and Lin Mu threw herself into busy rehearsals. She didn't think about anything else until the recording ended in the evening.
By the time the recording ended, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. After the recording, the party staff had a meeting and then dispersed. Lin Mu packed up his things and walked towards the underground garage.
