Chapter 132 You still have me!

Yan Ruo leaned against the headboard with half-closed eyes, and in her ears she could hear Lin Shuyun's repeated excuses.

In the middle, there was also the sound of Lin Yuan sobbing and crying.

"Shaoyu, Mom was really confused yesterday. I heard Lin Yuan say that the second son of the Zhou family is unreliable, so I thought of trying to match you two up."

"Wow... I'm sorry, cousin. Don't blame Auntie, it's all because of me. We were engaged for less than six months, and Tuesday hit me twice. I was so scared and wanted to break off the engagement so badly that's why I did that."

"Yes, although the Zhou family is not as powerful as the Xu family, it is not someone the Lin family dares to offend. If the Zhou family won't let them go, Lin Yuan will have no choice."

"If Lin Yuan wants to break off the engagement just to be with you, I don't think the Zhou family would dare to say anything. That's why we resorted to this desperate measure."

Lin Shuyun was really scared this time.

Her parents-in-law, who had always been kind to her, wanted to kick her out of the Xu family's old house.

Early this morning, news came from the Lin family that the Xu Group was going to terminate the contract with the Lin family's company.

Although Xu Shaoyu had said before that if the Lin family did not restrain themselves, the cooperation between the Xu and Lin families would be severed, she always believed that Xu Shaoyu would not kill them.

I didn't expect it to be real this time.

Thinking of this, she spoke with even more sincerity, like a good aunt who doted on her niece.

But she completely forgot that the person she was ruthlessly using as a tool was her own son.

Xu Shaoyu's voice was cold and his tone was flat.

"Oh, if you just want to cancel the engagement, you can just come to me and tell me. Even if it's just for the sake of our friendship growing up together, I won't ignore Lin Yuan."

"But what did you do? Did you really just want to break off the engagement?"

"You just want to tie me to the Lin family for life. You've already done this much, why are you still distracting yourself by looking for excuses to cover it up?"

The intermittent sobbing stopped for a moment, and Lin Shuyun's dissatisfied accusations were heard again.

"I gave birth to you and raised you, how can you say that to me?"

"You've always blamed me for helping your uncle's family these years, but the Zhou family is big and powerful, so what's wrong with helping your uncle?"

"I'm telling you, if you really marry that woman Yan Ruo, she'll only do things even more extreme than me."

"At least the Lin family still has some wealth. What does Yan Ruo, that country girl, have? She's just after your money and wants to step on you to become a wealthy wife."

"Are you done?" Xu Shaoyu's cold voice sounded slowly.

His voice was like cold jade striking ice, chilling to the bone, without any emotion, yet it sent chills all over one's body.

"I don't care if she's after me or my money. I'll give her whatever I have. Because I'm after her as a person, and only her."

"You are my mother, you gave birth to me and raised me, so I let you in today. You don't have to worry about your future life. But the Lin family, don't even think about making a penny from the Xu family anymore."

Lin Yuan even forgot to cry. He could never imagine how things could develop to such an irreversible point.

She had already given up and was ready to marry the second son of the Zhou family.

It was her aunt who told her that Yan Ruo, with her background, was not worthy of her cousin at all. If they didn't arrange a marriage, it would be better for him to marry her, someone who knew her well and was in the same boat with her.

That's why she cooperated with her aunt's plan yesterday and sent the calming tea with added ingredients upstairs.

But now it seems that her cousin has absolutely no other feelings for her, and he hates the Lin family to the core.

The Lin family also suffered a lot because of this incident. If she continued to make trouble with her aunt and the Zhou family knew about it, it would not be as simple as her wanting to cancel the engagement.

After thinking this through, she shrank back.

Lin Shuyun didn't care too much. Since things had come to this point, she spoke without restraint.

"That's your uncle's house. If Xu's family lets a little slip through their fingers, it will be enough for the Lin family to feed themselves. Don't you think you can even give up such a small amount?"

"You've always had a cold temper since childhood. If people knew that you were so ruthless towards your maternal uncle's family, I don't believe that you, the CEO of Xu Corporation, could still sit here peacefully."

In the room, Yan Ruo, who had already finished washing up and was sitting on the bed playing with his phone, stopped.

Xu Shaoyu was right. In Lin Shuyun's eyes, there was only the Lin family. She could even say such words.

Xu Shaoyu outside seemed to have expected this. His expression did not change. He just stared at Lin Shuyun for two seconds before slowly speaking.

"I heard that my cousin got drunk and beat someone up last year? Although you settled the matter temporarily with money, the person who got beaten up has a limp in his leg."

He looked at Lin Shuyun's wide eyes, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and his tone was very light.

"Tell me, if that person changes his mind now and calls the police, will my cousin be arrested and sent to jail?"

"You can't do this, he's your cousin." Lin Shuyun looked incredulous.

Xu Shaoyu had told her many times before to restrain the Lin family's behavior.

So when the accident happened, her first reaction was not to let Xu Shaoyu know.

Although when dealing with this matter, it is inevitable to rely on Xu's reputation to suppress the other party.

But it’s been so long, how could it be discovered?

Xu Shaoyu's eyes were cold and stern. "If you don't want my cousin to go to jail, go back to Lihu Villa right now and persuade the Lin family to hold on to their money, live peacefully, and stop trying to control me."

Even though she had long known that her son was cold and ruthless, Lin Shuyun never expected that he would treat her like this.

She was shocked and frightened, and just sneered.

"Good, good, good, you are worthy of being the good son I raised."

Xu Shaoyu closed his eyes and stopped looking at her. "Xiao Zhang is already downstairs. He will take you home."

Lin Shuyun was shocked. Seeing that he didn't even want to look at her, a trace of regret flashed in her eyes.

Lin Yuan was afraid that she would say something else to anger Xu Shaoyu, so he quickly stood up, supported her and prepared to leave.

After all, if Xu Shaoyu gets angry, he might not do anything to his biological mother, but he might vent his anger on the Lin family.

Although she was only adopted by the Lin family, she still had to rely on the Lin family after all.

When she reached the door, Lin Shuyun stopped and her tone became noticeably softer than before.

"Shaoyu, you are my only son. What mother in the world doesn't love her child?"

"It's just that you are already the president of Xu Corporation. You are so powerful at such a young age. The entire wealthy family in North City has to act according to your will."

"And the Lin family is just an insignificant existence in North City, so I always want to help them."

She turned and looked at Xu Shaoyu, but Xu Shaoyu kept his eyes closed, not looking at her or saying a word. In the end, she could only leave with a disappointed look on her face.

Only after hearing the sound of the door closing did Yan Ru tiptoe out of the room.

Seeing Xu Shaoyu sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed and his face obviously not looking good, she couldn't help but sit down beside him and hug him gently.

Xu Shaoyu leaned his head gently on her shoulder, and after a while, he spoke softly.

"This is my mother. When I was a child, I even doubted whether I was her biological mother."

Yan Ruo gently stroked his back, "It's okay, it's okay, you still have me."

The two of them snuggled together like this, neither of them speaking, until Yan Ruo's phone rang.
