Lin Yan didn't feel that embarrassed. She was not at fault in this matter from beginning to end. Why should she be embarrassed?
Perhaps it was because she didn't grow up in a wealthy family and didn't think that this kind of face was that important. Instead, the sympathetic looks from the people around her made her want to laugh.
After complaining secretly and making a "tsk" sound, her expression became unusually calm.
"Miss Song wants to attend my mother's birthday party. Why should I refuse? But my mother is over there, you can go over and celebrate."
Song Jingya frowned slightly, and looking at Lin Yan who looked calm, she couldn't tell for a moment whether Lin Yan was pretending or really didn't care.
She felt inexplicably annoyed, snorted coldly, walked towards Lin's father and mother, and casually handed them a set of jewelry boxes.
"Happy birthday, Madam Lin." Song Jingya's face was full of perfunctory expression.
Lin's mother's expression was a little stiff at this time. She could only force a smile and accept the gift.
"You're so polite, kid."
Although she was also dissatisfied with some of Lin Yan's actions, she also knew that it was not only Lin Yan who was embarrassed by today's incident, but the Lin family was even more embarrassed.
The Lin family would probably be the laughing stock of North City for some time to come. She had also noticed the displeasure and suppressed anger of Lin's father beside her.
And the most important thing is that today is her birthday party. Originally, the Lin family's business has improved a lot because of the marriage with the Lu family. Many wealthy wives know that their daughter married into the Lu family and they also flatter her to some extent.
Lin's mother originally held the birthday party to make other ladies envious of her. Now that this has happened, others will treat her fiftieth birthday party as a joke.
Mother Lin couldn't help but complain a little. Jiaojiao was really too willful. No matter how much she was at odds with Lin Yan, she couldn't do anything stupid at her birthday party.
Mother Lin was just lost in thought when she heard Father Lin's cold voice beside her: "I think you are really crazy."
Mother Lin understood in an instant that Father Lin thought it was her who asked Song Jingya to come. If they were not in the hotel and surrounded by guests, Father Lin would probably have been furious with her.
For a moment, Lin's mother felt aggrieved, but everyone around her was looking at her, and she couldn't explain anything.
After a simple greeting, Song Jingya wanted to move closer to Lin Yan to distract her, but Lu Jinghuai and Lin Yan on the other side were talking about something and didn't pay any attention to the situation here.
For a moment, the expression on Song Jingya's face became ugly, changing again and again, until she noticed Lin Jiao's gaze on the other side.
Lin Jiao's eyes were also fixed on Lu Jinghuai and Lin Yan. She was very familiar with that look, which was full of obvious jealousy and resentment.
Song Jingya paused, her face showing a hint of amusement and malice. The relationship between Lin Yan and Lin Jiao was even worse than she had imagined. Maybe she could find out something from it.
Without any hesitation, Song Jingya walked towards Lin Jiao.
At the same time, on the other side, the gentleness on Lu Jinghuai's face had faded because of Song Jingya's appearance. He frowned impatiently and thought.
Did he act too easy-going, causing the mother and daughter of the Lin family to bully his wife in front of him again and again?
Lu Jinghuai sneered, lowered his eyes and asked Lin Yan: "If you are not happy, we can go back now, do you want to go back?"
Going back halfway through the birthday party would be a slap in the face of the Lin family, but Lu Jinghuai never worried about offending the Lin family.
But I guess many people present here need to redefine the Lin family, the Lin family that has offended the Lu family.
Lu Jinghuai's eyes turned slightly cold.
Lin Yan subconsciously exclaimed "Ah" and looked up at Lu Jinghuai. When she met his eyes, she realized that Lu Jinghuai was dissatisfied with her.
Lin Yan was silent for a moment. "No need. I won't have any contact with the Lin family unless there's something going on. The Lin family is causing so much trouble. There's a reason why I'm distancing myself from them."
After all the trouble I've been going out for, I didn't even eat for such a small matter. It's a shame to go back hungry.
[Also, if we really go back like this, I'm right now, but I'm afraid that when people discuss it later, they'll say that we don't care about Lin's father and mother. They might even say that we are unfilial. My parents, your parents-in-law, forget it...]
This is how society is today. Parents may not be good enough to their children, but the younger generations can go too far towards their elders.
If they went back halfway, it would be a slap in the face. Lin Yan didn't care about what others said, but Lu Jinghuai was the person in charge of Lu's group after all, so he needed to maintain a good image.
[It's just a meal, don't get too mad. Don't let anyone say that Lu Jinghuai left halfway because he felt guilty about Song Jingya coming.]
Lu Jinghuai fell silent, then spoke again with a somewhat helpless tone: "Then we'll go back after dinner."
This time, Lin Yan nodded and said "hmm". Logically speaking, as the daughter and son-in-law, they should go back to the Lin family after dinner, as there will be a family dinner in the evening.
But with the Lin family making such a fuss, they probably didn't have the nerve to invite the couple, and Lin Yan was not interested in attending the Lin family's family dinner.
After the two of them had a brief conversation, Lin's father said a few words to the Lin family's relatives and then came directly to Lu Jinghuai and Lin Yan.
Aunt Lin and eldest aunt Lin went straight to Mother Lin, both with unhappy expressions.
Father Lin's face was not in a good mood at first, but when he drove in front of Lin Yan, he forced a smile.
"Yan Yan, you've been wronged by what happened today. Your mother was wrong before, but Song Jingya's behavior at this time...your mother really didn't know about it. It was that girl Lin Jiao who was spoiled by us. I'll have her come and apologize to you later."
In fact, Lin's father wanted to grab Lin Jiao and apologize to her, but he looked around and didn't see anyone. Then he found that Song Jingya was also missing.
He immediately understood who Lin Jiao was with and was so angry that he almost had a heart attack, but he couldn't say it to Lin Yan at this time.
Lin Yan smiled and didn't say anything like forget it, although she didn't mind Song Jingya coming to attend her mother's birthday party.
But it didn't prevent Lin Jiao from asking Song Jingya to come over because her purpose was to piss her off, and she was too lazy to be a nice person and speak directly.
"There's no need for Dad to apologize. She didn't mean it anyway. But I won't go to the Lin family's dinner today. It's not appropriate for my sister-in-law to be left home alone."
Father Lin suddenly realized that their Lin family had offended Lin Yan and Lu Jinghuai.
He sighed helplessly, knowing that even if he wanted to repair the relationship, he couldn't just stand there, so he could only nod.
"If you have anything to do, just go and take care of the family banquet first. It's not important. I'll have Lin Jiao go and apologize to you in person in a couple of days."
Lin Yan didn't say anything more. As the host of the house, Lin's father couldn't stay here forever, so he had to leave after speaking.
However, after turning around, his face darkened. He went to the side and called to the housekeeper: "Go find that evil girl Lin Jiao and send her back to the Lin family. Don't let her embarrass me outside."
