Faced with her brother's questioning, Lin Yao was prepared and brought out the same excuse she had given to Zhou Shuhua and the others.
It's simply that Shen Huaichuan was in the wrong first, being caught cheating on her with someone else. If she continued to be with Shen Huaichuan, she would definitely be laughed at for the rest of her life, so she had no choice but to break up.
In the end, they comforted each other and got together.
Lin Yan frowned deeply.
"Why didn't you tell us then? There are plenty of good young people in the hospital and in our government workplace who could have arranged another one for you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yao impatiently interrupted him.
"Make arrangements! Make arrangements! All you ever do is make arrangements!"
Lin Yao abruptly interrupted her brother, hands on her hips, her chest heaving violently.
“From childhood to adulthood, where I go to school, what job I do, who I make friends with, and even which man I marry have all been arranged by you! I am a person, not a rag doll to be manipulated. I have my own thoughts and my own ideas!”
Her eyes were wide open, glistening with tears, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Lin Yan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was silenced by his sister's next words.
"Did you ask me if I was willing before making these arrangements? Besides arranging studies and jobs for me and giving me money, did you ever really care about what I was thinking?"
Lin Yao's voice was filled with deep grievance, and her shoulders trembled slightly.
Seeing his sister's excited expression, Lin Yan sighed and softened his tone.
"Your parents are both doctors, and they're very busy with work, as you know. But from childhood to adulthood, haven't they tried their best to give you whatever you wanted? When you did something wrong, when have they ever scolded you? Besides, marriage is such a big deal, how can you get your marriage certificate without telling your family? And I just don't think Xu Shu's family is very reliable. Xu Shu is from the countryside and doesn't even have a formal job..."
He works in a government agency, so he has a good eye for people.
Just from that brief encounter, I could tell that none of them were easy to deal with.
"You're not allowed to speak ill of them!"
Lin Yao suddenly screamed, interrupting her brother.
"I chose Xu Shu myself, and he's been so good to me. He's never argued with me. His family treats me like their own daughter, always giving me the best food. We've already got our marriage certificate, and we're getting married tomorrow. Nobody can change that!"
Her gaze was firm, her chin held high, giving her an air of unquestionable authority.
"All right."
Seeing his sister's stubborn look, Lin Yan knew that there was no point in saying anything more.
He shook his head helplessly and said.
"Mom has been worried about you a lot, and recently her heart condition has been bothering her again. She found out something was wrong with her during the checkup, but I haven't dared to tell them. They can't come..."
Lin Yao was initially a little worried, her brows furrowing slightly, but as she heard the rest, her eyebrows suddenly shot up, showing her extreme displeasure.
"How can that be? Brother, you have no idea how much Zhou Qiqi has been bullying me here! My wedding this time has to be a grand affair, to really outdo her! Only when she sees me doing well can I get my revenge! What's the point of Mom and Dad not coming?"
She stomped her foot, her face full of dissatisfaction.
Seeing his younger sister's sullen expression, Lin Yan quickly stood up, reached out to support her shoulder, and gently patted her.
"Don't worry, even though Mom and Dad can't come, I specially had someone bring back some of the most fashionable dresses. We didn't have time to go to Hong Kong, so we brought them back from Guangzhou. Pick one you like and wear it tomorrow."
He paused, then continued.
"Also, I went to the G City Cultural Center during the day and hired a dragon and lion dance troupe, and a drum team to perform tomorrow. No matter what, my sister's wedding must be a grand and spectacular one!"
"That's more like it!"
Hearing her brother's words, Lin Yao's expression gradually softened, and a smile appeared on her lips.
She suddenly took her brother's arm and said in a coquettish tone.
"Brother, you're so good to me! But Mom and Dad said they'd give me a thousand yuan for my wedding, and Xu Shu and I were thinking of using that money to start a business. If they don't come, this money..."
She shook her brother's arm, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Starting a business? The fact that he even thought of that shows ambition, which is a good thing..."
Lin Yan gritted his teeth and said.
"I'll figure out the money, but your sister-in-law is pregnant recently, so she might not be able to come up with that much all at once..."
He looked at his sister with some difficulty, feeling somewhat helpless.
Upon hearing her brother's agreement, Lin Yao immediately released his arm and smiled.
"Take whatever you have first, and we'll get the rest from Mom and Dad later! Brother Xu said he'll pay you back ten times, no, twenty times, in less than a year!"
Her face was full of excitement, as if she could already see the wonderful life ahead.
One thousand yuan, multiplied tenfold becomes ten thousand yuan, and multiplied twentyfold becomes twenty thousand yuan.
My parents have saved up for so many years, and they still don't have this much wealth. It's obviously an exaggeration.
But her younger sister had been pampered since childhood and had no concept of money, so she couldn't tell at all.
"OK..."
Lin Yan squeezed out this word through gritted teeth, and the hope that had just been rekindled for his brother-in-law was instantly extinguished.
He wondered silently what kind of spell Xu Shu had cast on his sister to make her so confused.
We need to investigate this person thoroughly.
But no matter what, how could he not feel sorry for his younger sister who had been pampered by the whole family since she was a child?
