[Chapter 261: Being Hated by My Mother]

Jiang Yirou listened to the entire conversation between Lin Yin and Jiang Wensheng.

She pretended to accidentally mention the news that Lin Yin was trapped on Loli Island to Jiang Wensheng, so Jiang Wensheng went to Lin Yin at the banquet to ask about it.

It’s a pity that I didn’t hear any useful news.

Whether Lin Yin and Jiang Shu knew each other is indeed a mystery.

However... Lin Yin actually hinted to Jiang Wensheng that the disappearance of the two daughters of the Jiang family was not a coincidence. Does this mean that Lin Yin might know something?

Jiang Yirou narrowed her eyes and completely wanted to kill Lin Yin.

It is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go.

Lin Yin didn't know that her hint might bring disaster to herself. At this moment, she had returned to the banquet hall, and a tall and slender figure was walking towards her quickly.

The man pulled her into his arms, and a voice above her head sounded with a hint of worry, "Where have you been? I was about to look for you after dealing with those people, but when I turned around, I couldn't see you in the entire banquet hall."

Lin Yin looked up at the man, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Brother Jiang came to me for something, and I chatted with him for a while."

"What do I want to talk to you about?" Huo Jingze's sense of crisis about Jiang Wensheng was no less than that of Fu Huaijin in the past.

Lin Yin said truthfully: "He asked me if I had seen his missing little sister on Lolita Island. I said no, and he was very sad."

It turned out to be because of this matter.

Huo Jingze seemed to recall some memories, his eyes were a little dazed, "Jiang Shu... It's really strange, why are the daughters of the Jiang family so unlucky, disappearing one after another."

Lin Yin subconsciously replied: "It's just that my own daughter is unlucky."

Huo Jingze's eyes fell on her face, and a hint of doubt flashed across his black eyes under his three-dimensional brows. "What do you mean by this? Don't you think these two incidents are related to Jiang Yirou?"

“…”

Lin Yin felt annoyed that he shouldn't have spoken so quickly.

At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder about Huo Jingze's attitude.

"What would you think if it was really her?"

Huo Jingze frowned, not quite believing it. "How is this possible? Jiang Yu was only five years old when she disappeared. Jiang Yirou was about the same age as her. How could a child be so capable of planning something like that? As for Jiang Shu... from what I know, the two of them had a very good relationship, just like sisters from the same mother. Although Jiang Yirou later became Gu Chen's fiancée, that was two years after Jiang Shu disappeared. There should be no direct causal relationship between the two."

He spoke a long speech, and every word he said was something Lin Yin didn't like to hear.

After all, Huo Jingze still trusts Jiang Yirou in his heart.

Lin Yin pulled the corners of her mouth, as if she was about to smile, "It seems that the image of her in your mind is quite good."

Huo Jingze noticed her displeasure and explained, "I've known her for so many years, and she's never done anything bad, so it's hard for me to associate her with the word vicious. What's more, everything must be based on evidence. You can't just accuse someone of a crime without any evidence, right?"

“…” Lin Yin was speechless.

In fact, she had nothing to say. She couldn't just say that Jiang Shu told her who the murderer was when she was still alive. Huo Jingze was right, there had to be evidence for everything. The only witness was dead, and she was in a very embarrassing position. If she jumped out to expose Jiang Yirou, no one would believe her.

They might even think that she was throwing mud at Jiang Yirou.

Then you will get into trouble.

In just a few seconds, Lin Yin thought a lot, his eyebrows wrinkled uncontrollably, and his mood became irritable.

She picked up a glass of red wine and took a sip.

Huo Jingze felt that something was wrong with her and grabbed her wrist, "What's wrong with you? I feel like you are hiding something from me."

Lin Yin shook her head and said perfunctorily, "No, maybe my period is coming soon and I'm in a bad mood for some reason."

"Yeah?"

Huo Jingze stared at her without blinking. He was about to ask more questions when he heard a woman's soft call in his ears.

"Brother Jingze..."

Jiang Yirou came over holding Lan Weiyu's arm and was about to shout out those four words as usual. She paused as if she had thought of something, glanced at Lin Yin, and swallowed the last word.

He changed his words and said, "Brother Jing."

As soon as these three words came out, Lan Weiyu looked at her daughter in confusion.

Jiang Yirou smiled and spoke to Huo Jingze and Lin Yin. They didn't say much, just a few words of greeting. After a while, Huo Jingze took Lin Yin's hand and walked away.

Lan Weiyu finally asked the question in her mind, "Yiro, when did you change the way you address Jingze? Didn't you always call Jingze brother before? Why are you suddenly so unfamiliar and calling him Brother Jing?"

Jiang Yirou shook her head, looking like she didn't want to say more.

"What's going on? Tell mom." The less she said, the more curious Lan Weiyu became.

Finally, Jiang Yirou sighed softly, with a bitter smile on her lips, and recounted the conflict between Lin Yin and Guan Xiaoxiao that she encountered in the jewelry store that day.

Of course, the bad words about her were omitted, and only Lin Yin's insinuation about her being shameless and asking her to change her name was exaggerated...

After saying this, Jiang Yirou showed an aggrieved expression, "Maybe it was indeed my fault. It's normal for Miss Lin to be jealous."

Lan Weiyu squeezed her daughter's hand distressedly and said in an unhappy tone: "Even if she minds the way you address Jingze, you should still talk to her nicely. How can you call you shameless? I thought she was a pretty good girl before, but I didn't expect she was such a person in private."

"Mom, don't blame Miss Lin. She may just be insecure and afraid that my old relationship with Brother Jingze will rekindle, so she cares about every little thing." Jiang Yirou comforted Lan Weiyu in turn, showing great understanding.

The more she endured the humiliation and wronged herself, the more unhappy Lan Weiyu became, and her tone became deeper.

"I don't discriminate against people with ordinary family backgrounds, but this Lin Yin is really annoying. People from small families are really short-sighted. It is a blessing for her to be Jingze's girlfriend. This is the highest point in her life. You are different from her. You are the daughter of our Jiang family. You can choose from all the young talents in the imperial capital. You don't even bother to play such a cheap game as snatching men."

Jiang Yirou's smile was a little forced, and she patted the back of Lan Weiyu's hand, "Okay, Mom, let's not bother with her."

"Well, it's really not worth worrying about." Lan Weiyu's impression of Lin Yin changed, and she felt a little disgusted.

And this is exactly the effect Jiang Yirou wants.

Even if Lin Yin is the biological daughter of the Jiang family, what is the difference between a child who is not loved by her mother and a wild child outside?

The corners of her mouth curved calmly, looking forward to what would happen if Lin Yin knew her identity in the future and found that she was hated by her biological mother.

What kind of feeling would that be?

It must be interesting.
