Guo Linxian shouted this question with almost all her strength.
Although he lowered his voice deliberately, the panic in his tone was clearly revealed.
Liu Rumeng let her mother hold her arm and didn't even try to break free.
There was no panic, evasion, or embarrassment on her face that Guo Linxian had expected of having her secret discovered.
She just frowned slightly, her eyes showing complete confusion and a hint of offended anger.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Guo Linxian was as if he was looking at a patient with confused thinking and incoherent speech.
"Mom? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Liu Rumeng's voice was filled with just the right amount of surprise and dissatisfaction, and even a bit of concern for her mother's mental state.
"Xiao Lin Tian Wang? Lin Huo Wang? How could it be just one person!
One of them is a wealthy businessman from Japan, and the other is a farmer from the mainland. They are completely unrelated!
How did you come up with this idea?
Are you too tired these days and your eyes are blurry?
Or was it that the newspaper was too blurry and you misread it?"
Her denial was firm and without hesitation, and the expression on her face was extremely precise.
Those confused eyes, that slightly furrowed brow.
The tone and gesture, which contained a hint of doubt about the mother's "bad eyesight", combined together, seemed extremely sincere and innocent.
However, although Liu Rumeng was performing like this on her face, she had a different picture in her mind.
She recalled that night at Repulse Bay No. 3, when Lin Huowang had told her about the plan and she had said, "Mother might recognize you," Lin Huowang had reassured her with great certainty:
“So what if I recognize it?
As long as you don’t admit it and I don’t admit it, then it’s not true.
Your mother is a smart person and she is very aware of the overall situation.
She knows exactly what to say and what not to say.
Without any solid evidence, she would never dare to reveal a single word about this incredible thing to anyone in the Guo family.
As long as we all 'deny it,' she'll just have to keep it to herself, and then slowly start to doubt her own eyes and memory."
The scene before us completely confirmed Lin Huowang's prediction.
And Liu Rumeng's performance at this moment is to carry out "refusal to admit" to the end.
…
Guo Linxian looked at her daughter's extremely "real" confused expression, her heart suddenly tightened, and she was instantly overwhelmed by a huge wave of uncertainty.
My daughter acted so well!
That look, that tone, that matter-of-fact attitude...
Could it be that... I have been overworked for days and my mind was in a trance, so I mistook the blurry newspaper photo for the shadow of vague worry in my heart?
Is she overthinking it?
Liu Rumeng's superb and flawless "acting skills" are matched with her deliberate expression of concern for her mother's "eyesight or mental state".
Guo Linxian, who was on the verge of a severe cognitive collapse, almost thought that she had serious hallucinations and misjudgments.
“No…it can’t be wrong…”
Guo Linxian subconsciously retorted, but her voice was much weaker, with the uncertainty of self-convince, "I remember it very clearly... those eyebrows... the line of the chin... it's clearly Lin Huowang!
When we registered our divorce that day, I examined him very carefully..."
She tried hard to recall Lin Huowang's appearance, trying to find solid evidence that could convince her daughter and herself.
However, Liu Rumeng did not give her a chance to breathe or delve deeper.
Without waiting for Guo Linxian to recall and compare, she immediately threw out a series of rhetorical questions as sharp as ice spikes and based on realistic logic:
"Mom, please calm down and think about it!"
Liu Rumeng's voice rose a little, carrying a rational and logical force. "If Xiaolin Tianwang is really Lin Huowang, why don't I just confess it to Grandpa and admit it openly?"
She looked directly into her mother's confused and bewildered eyes, analyzing each word clearly:
“You saw it too!
Who is Kobayashi Tenno?
He had everything - a luxury house like Number Three at Repulse Bay, several valuable Rolls-Royce cars, and even enough financial resources to easily buy shares in popular newspapers or companies!
And the background speculation in yesterday's newspapers—the existence of a top Chinese family in Japan, one that controls a massive chaebol and can influence the Hong Kong government's decisions!
Liu Rumeng's voice was filled with a powerful rhetorical question based on realistic logic. "I came to Hong Kong Island, and my grandfather's family went to great lengths to get me married up. Wasn't it just to find such a powerful backer for the Guo family?"
She paused for a moment, allowing this favorable picture of reality to be more clearly imprinted in her mother's mind.
Then Liu Rumeng raised the more core question: "If this 'Little Lin Tianwang' is really Lin Huowang, doesn't that prove that your daughter's vision back in the mainland was not only correct, but also astonishingly accurate, and brought back an unexpected super rich son-in-law for our Guo family?!
With such a "strong forest fire", is there anything "not presentable" about it?
Why should I hide it?
Why would I hide this identity from Grandpa and the Guo family? It's enough to make everyone look up to me, and even require our Guo family to actively curry favor with me?!"
Liu Rumeng's analysis is as precise as a scalpel, pointing directly to the core of human nature and real interests.
Guo Linxian's head was buzzing with excitement from this series of sharp questions.
"Wait a minute... No! Mom's mind is a little confused... Let me sort it out..."
My confused thoughts were like being thrown into a powerful blender.
yes!
If Lin Huowang really possesses such a terrifying identity and wealth, then it would be a godsend for the Guo family!
