Lin Xueer was startled and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although she already knew what Lin Tianhua meant, she still couldn't help but ask: "Grandpa, are you going to force me to marry him too?"
Lin Tianhua looked solemn and said calmly: "Xue'er, I warned you before not to meet that brat named Xiao again. If you don't listen, you are not the one who feels uncomfortable now?"
"Who is that Xiao Yun? He is a small doctor with no power, no money, and now he has resigned. I think he is just waiting to eat your soft rice! How can such a person be worthy of my precious granddaughter?
Woolen cloth?"
"How can this kid Lixin be inferior to him? Listen to grandpa and stop having any boring fantasies about him. Get ready. Grandpa will take you to meet Mr. Zhou in a few days."
Hearing these words, Lin Xueer's eyes became more and more desolate.
She looked at Lin Tianhua in front of her in disbelief, shook her head and stepped back step by step.
Grandpa, the grandpa who loved her the most, actually planned to sacrifice her lifelong happiness!
At the same time, Lin Yucheng also smiled and agreed: "Yes, Xue'er, we are also doing it for your own good. That Xiao Yun, although he cured your stubborn illness and saved your grandfather's life, he also
Did you get a lot of benefits by relying on the face of our Lin family? This is considered even, so don’t have any psychological burden!"
Zhao Yu also followed her husband in admonishing: "Xue'er, think about it, people in today's society are unpredictable. How do you know that Xiao Yun didn't approach you intentionally because our Lin family is rich?"
Hearing this, Lin Xueer even laughed mockingly.
Zhao Yu’s breast cancer was cured by Xiao Yun!
But now?
She actually followed suit and kept belittling Xiao Yun!
Oh, she finally understood that in the face of interests, these people can ignore anything and sacrifice anything!
Tears of despair fell quietly.
Lin Xueer closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then said suddenly: "No! I won't agree! No matter what, I will never marry someone I don't love!"
Lin Kaicheng was so angry that he wanted to raise his hands again, but when he saw his daughter's eyes full of despair, he couldn't bear it anymore.
But now, what else can be done?
Lin Kaicheng clenched his back teeth, forced himself to calm down, and shouted: "Nonsense! Lin Xue'er, your uncle and aunt have told you so many truths, but you still don't understand?!"
"Without the Zhou family's funds, our Lin family is in danger! There will be no unbroken eggs when the nest is overturned. Do you think you will not be implicated when the time comes?! This is not only for the family, but also for yourself!"
"You just stay at home for the next few days and you are not allowed to go anywhere! When your grandfather makes arrangements, you can go see Mr. Zhou obediently!"
"If you dare to be willful again, I, Lin Kai, will not recognize you as my daughter!"
Before Lin Xueer could refute anything, Lin Tianhua pounded the dragon-headed crutch heavily and said in a deep voice: "Okay Xueer, stop messing around! Your father is right, the matter is settled, today's meeting will be
That’s it for now, everyone, please disperse.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Tianhua didn't give Lin Xueer any chance to resist, and stood up and left the conference room.
Lin Kaicheng glanced at his daughter with a complicated expression, sighed sadly, and left.
The rest of the Lin family members also left one by one.
When passing by Lin Xueer, a few of her peers would make scornful remarks.
"Lin Xue'er, are you actually secretly happy? You can marry a man like Master Zhou, but you still resist her. You're really pretending!"
"Hmph, who says it's not the case? Look at her, she's longing for us to call her Mrs. Zhou!"
"She also pretends to be pitiful. She must be trying to make the old man feel guilty about her and compensate her with money in the future. Hmm, you are so scheming!"
"When you say that, I think so too! Tsk tsk, tsk tsk, I didn't expect her to be so greedy. The old man has given her half of the family business to take care of, and she is still making a living here. It's disgusting!"
Listening to these vicious and unpleasant speculations, Lin Xueer only felt ridiculous and sad.
Did he sacrifice his whole life's happiness just to seek a stable future for such a group of ugly people?
Is it worth it?
For a moment, she just felt dizzy, as if her whole body had been hollowed out, and she stood blankly in the conference room like a zombie.
She didn't know when the Lin family members were gone.
How she got back to the bedroom, she didn't know.
All she knew was that she, who had so much glory, was just a disposable chess piece.
…
the other side.
In a luxurious manor in the suburbs.
Zhou Lixin angrily smashed antique vases one after another, each of which was valuable, which made the secretary next to him feel distressed.
"Oh, this stinky woman, is she blind?! How can I, this young master, be inferior to that damn good-for-nothing?!"
Next to him, the lean secretary echoed indignantly: "That's right, Mr. Zhou, you are one of the top rich and handsome men in Jiangzhou Province! How many rich families are vying for their money just to be able to say a word to you.
, that Lin Xueer is really ignorant!"
"Damn it, I don't know what kind of ecstasy drug that dead loser gave her, but she is so devoted to him." Zhou Lixin cursed and opened a bottle of foreign wine, put his mouth directly to the bottle and took a sip.
The secretary hurriedly handed him a wine glass and said, "Yeah, it's like he's been poisoned!"
Zhou Lixin suddenly trembled, turned around and stared at the secretary, asking: "What did you say?"
The secretary was stunned for a moment, and quickly thought over what he had just said in his mind.
Is there no problem?
But seeing the fierce look on Young Master Zhou's face, the secretary felt unsure and stammered: "I, I said... it's like... it's like a poison..."
At the end of the conversation, the secretary's voice became softer and softer, and she looked at Zhou Lixin's face nervously.
"Lost Gu... hum..." Zhou Li, a newbie, touched his chin and murmured thoughtfully.
"Are there any strange people in our Jiangzhou Province?" Zhou Lixin raised the corners of his mouth sinisterly and smiled horribly: "That's the kind who can cast poison..."
The secretary was stunned, thought for a moment, and said: "Master, I don't know if there are any in Jiangzhou Province, but I have heard that Gu Tao is popular in Miao territory."
Gu is a kind of witchcraft in China, and it is most popular in the Miao border area of southern Yunnan.
In layman's terms, Gu is actually putting various highly poisonous spiders, scorpions, centipedes, toads, poisonous snakes and other poisonous insects into a container, sealing it for ten days, and letting them kill each other.
After unsealing, the poisonous insect that survives is the most ruthless and poisonous one, the final "poison"!
It is said that if the feces of poisonous insects are secretly placed in people's water or food, the poisonous insects will grow in the body of the person who eats them, and they will slowly be tortured to death by the poisonous poison.
It is also said that a person who has fallen victim to the poison will obey the instructions of the person who caused the poison, and must regularly take special anti-poison medicine to extend his life, year after year, year after year, until death.
"Oh?" Zhou Lixin suddenly became energetic. While pouring himself a glass of wine, he asked with a sinister smile: "Send someone to inquire about Miao territory and invite a master back for me!"
"Yes, Master!" The secretary bowed respectfully and immediately exited the room.
Zhou Lixin sat on the sofa, feeling suddenly refreshed.
