The next time Lin Yan heard about Lin Jiao was when Lin's mother called her. Lin's mother always seemed to be putting on airs in front of her.
But during this phone call, Lin's mother was unusually humble, and her tone was full of pleading.
"Jiaojiao knows she's wrong. You've lived in that family before, and you know what the Wang family is like. How could she go to that hell?"
Seeing that the person on the other end of the phone didn't speak, Lin's mother hurriedly spoke again.
"If you think Jiaojiao is an eyesore, can your dad and I send her abroad?"
Lin Yan didn't know what to feel for the moment. To Lin Jiao, her mother was a good mother.
But to Lin Yan, she was indeed irresponsible. It turned out that Lin's mother also knew about the Wang family's situation, but ignored the pain Lin Yan experienced.
Lin Yan let out a long breath: "Mrs. Lin, you seem to have made a mistake. Lin Jiao has offended more than just me."
Lin Jiao also lost the face of the Lu family. The atmosphere on Lin's mother's side obviously changed. Maybe she wanted to get angry, or maybe she wanted to blame Lin Yan, but she said nothing and hung up the phone in a hurry.
Lin Yan was silent for a long time as she looked at the hung up phone.
She couldn't help but look at the man beside her. After a moment of silence, she said, "You did it?"
Lu Jinghuai did not deliberately listen to the conversation between Lin Yan and her mother, but Lin Yan did not deliberately avoid him, which led to him hearing the conversation between Lin's mother and Lin Yan clearly.
So he also knew what Lin Yan meant by this question. He raised his eyebrows, neither admitting nor denying it, but sometimes not admitting is the same as denying.
"Do you want me to let Lin Jiao go?" Lu Jinghuai asked. He was afraid that Lin Yan would think his methods were too extreme.
"Do I look like a saint?" Lin Yan rolled her eyes.
Lu Jinghuai chuckled.
"The Lin family has already helped her privately." Lu Jinghuai didn't intend to kill them all. Even a cornered rabbit will bite.
However, if he doesn't say anything, Lin's father will not provide any help to Lin Jiao openly.
It’s not that Lu Jinghuai didn’t give Lin Jiao a chance, but Lin Jiao seemed to be completely unaware of it.
Lin Jiao actually dared to provoke Lin Yan three or four times because she had not received the lesson she deserved in the past.
Lin Jiao's ending also serves as a reminder to people in the circle that no matter what Lin Yan was like before, or what the Lin family's attitude towards Lin Yan was.
Now Lin Yan is the wife of the Lu family.
Lin Yan also understood the reason why Lu Jinghuai did this, so she hugged Lu Jinghuai's waist and said nothing more.
[To be honest, I'm a little touched by Lu Jinghuai's sudden appearance. This is the first time someone has protected me like this.]
Lu Jinghuai rubbed Lin Yan's head, but his eyes were dark. If Lin's mother was not indeed Lin Yan's mother and had not really hurt Lin Yan, Lu Jinghuai would even want to teach Lin's mother a lesson as well.
The phone call Lin's mother made just now was all about pleading for Lin Jiao, and she seemed to have forgotten that Lin Yan was also her daughter.
…
At this time, at the Lin family, after Lin's mother hung up the phone, she was completely desperate and collapsed on the sofa.
Thinking of Lin Jiao's current situation, Lin's mother felt distressed and helpless. She looked at Lin's father who was silent beside her: "Jiaojiao is our daughter who we have spoiled for more than 20 years..."
Father Lin rubbed his forehead, a little annoyed by this sentence, and spoke directly and impatiently: "Who do you blame? Isn't it because you spoiled her? I reminded her many times that Lin Yan's current status is different. Did she listen to me and ask her to be more obedient?"
Mother Lin opened and closed her mouth for a long time before speaking: "We are her family after all. We don't need to take Jiaojiao back. We can just send her abroad or somewhere else where that family can't find her."
The man from the Wang family has been pestering Lin Jiao to take her home recently, relying on the fact that he is Lin Jiao's biological father, and has even attracted the attention of the news media.
Now people outside are saying that Lin Jiao is cold-blooded, that Lin Jiao doesn't care about her parents' kindness, and that Lin Jiao despises the poor and loves the rich.
Lin Jiao's mental state was very bad. Her mother also went to see Lin Jiao secretly once. Lin Jiao hugged her mother and cried.
Lin's mother's heart was broken.
Faced with Lin's mother's pleading, Lin's father remained silent. He did not dare to try Lin's mother's words and offend the Lu family for Lin Jiao.
"The Lin family has done their utmost for her. Remember, Lin Jiao has been expelled from the Lin family. We only have one daughter, Lin Yan, who is now Mrs. Lu of the Lu family."
The little incident in the Lin family had no impact on Lin Yan and Lu Jinghuai.
However, Lu Jinghuai might have been worried that Lin Yan would be in a bad mood because of Lin's mother's attitude, so he simply moved the company's team building up forward.
It was obvious that he was abusing his power for personal gain and wanted Lin Yan to go out and relax.
Lu’s team building is not like the kind of small company that torments employees, and the team building is not stingy, but actual money is spent.
After Lu Jinghuai notified him of the early date of this year's team building, the Human Resources Department gave him the reference destinations for selection the next day.
Lu Jinghuai also gave Lin Yan the right to choose. There were more than ten destinations, including mountain climbing and swimming, which was quite colorful.
"The mountain climbing team building activity has been deleted first. If the team building activity asks me to climb a mountain, I might as well die."
"This is too far. Team building will only take two days of rushing back and forth, which is boring. I don't want to be a special forces soldier."
This was Lin Yan's first time participating in such a rich team-building activity, and she was very excited about the selection.
Lu Jinghuai didn't stop Lin Yan from being picky.
The final destination was determined. It was not a popular city, but a famous ancient city next door.
In addition, fruits and vegetables are ripe in this season, so it is a good time to pick them and experience the joy of harvest.
This was said by Lin Yan, so Lu Jinghuai naturally had no objection.
The next day, the company's human resources department sent the team-building arrangements to all employees' email addresses.
Lu’s team building has always adopted a voluntary registration model. Because the benefits are good, basically everyone chooses to participate.
Tong Miaomiao, who was standing next to Lin Yan, also came to Lin Yan to inquire about the news as soon as she saw the email.
"Yan Yan, are you going to the team building this year?"
"Yes." Lin Yan was very surprised: "Aren't you going?"
"If you go, Mr. Lu will definitely go too," Tong Miaomiao said with a sigh, "I'll probably go with you. For a moment, I even started to hesitate whether to go with you or not."
Lu’s team building is divided into two waves. In the past, Lu Jinghuai would not participate in the employees’ team building, so the employees did not need to consider which wave they would be assigned to.
But this year Lin Yan is also an employee. If Lin Yan signs up, Lu Jinghuai will definitely sign up as well.
"As soon as the notice came out, people came to me to ask if you would sign up."
Even though Lu's benefits are good, most employees are still unwilling to participate in team building with their leaders.
"But I have a feeling that Mr. Lu won't pay any attention to us at that time. He might even dislike us for disturbing your private time."
Tong Miaomiao blinked playfully, with an expression that said I know everything.
