Zheng Lin patted the old man on the shoulder and then walked away, leaving Zheng Youguo alone, angry.
Three days later, Song Leilei's contract termination case went to court. As Zheng Lin had expected, the contract was not only terminated, but she also did not have to pay any penalty.
Gao Wei was so angry that his face turned green in court.
After the three left the courthouse, Gao Wei grabbed Song Leilei, preventing her from leaving.
"Well, you're something else. I was wondering where you got fifty million from. You're even more ruthless than me, hiring a lawyer like this to sue me."
Gao Wei grabbed her and wouldn't let go, yelling loudly. He took out his phone and shoved it at Song Leilei's face, saying, "You think you can get away with this? Song Leilei, let me tell you, I'll ruin your reputation!"
Zheng Lin gave Assistant Gao a look, and Assistant Gao went over and pushed away Gao Wei, who was entangled with him.
Gao Wei was pushed to the ground. Her phone, which she was holding high, was snatched away by her assistant in an instant, and the recorded video was deleted.
“I advise you to let this go and not cause any more trouble.” Assistant Gao said with a hint of force, “The court has already issued a verdict. If you refuse to give up, we will have no choice but to call the police.”
Song Leilei was so frightened by the pulling that she squatted on the ground and curled up like a little chick.
Upon seeing this, Zheng Lin raised an eyebrow, picked up his phone, and called Su Jin, asking her to come and pick up Song Leilei.
He deliberately exaggerated the situation so that Su Jin would rush over to comfort her best friend Song Leilei, thus making it seem natural for him to strike up a conversation with Su Jin.
Upon hearing that Song Leilei had been bullied, Su Jin immediately came over with Assistant Wang and Zheng Qi.
When she arrived, she found that Gao Wei was no longer there, and only Zheng Lin was standing there.
Where is Leilei?
"Oh, Gao Zixin took her home."
Su Jin was speechless. It wasn't easy for her to come all this way, and now she was being told it was over and everyone had gone home.
She brought two large men with her specifically to bolster her presence.
Even if you don't fight, having more people to argue has its advantages.
"Goodbye." Su Jin turned her head hastily.
"I just want to call you over to see you."
"I thought we had made things very clear. There was no need for us to meet again. If we were to meet again, it would either at your wedding with He Ru or at the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce." Su Jin said coldly and ruthlessly, "I hope we will never have any further contact."
Zheng Lin felt another pang in his heart, but after being stabbed so many times, he became numb and no longer cared about her stubbornness.
He was certain that her heart wasn't that hard; she was just being stubborn with him.
"We can adopt children. You can adopt as many children as you like."
Su Jin felt a headache and dizziness whenever she heard the word "child." She had become extremely sensitive about children because she had lost her own.
She silently clenched her hands at her sides to keep herself from getting agitated. "Adoption? I don't want to adopt. What I wanted, I've already lost, and adoption can't replace it."
She didn't want to adopt. Zheng Lin had no idea what the problem was. He looked at Su Jin's back and felt a pang of heartache. "What will it take for you to turn around and look at me again?"
"You should go find He Ru," Su Jin said, then turned and left.
Faced with Su Jin's cold attitude, Zheng Lin became somewhat discouraged. He abandoned all his affairs and locked himself in his room for several days.
The housekeeper and the maid who brought the food both sighed when they saw each other.
"The second young master doesn't eat much." The maid looked at the tray that had been brought out; the dishes had barely been touched, and the rice was piled high. "If this continues, his body won't be able to take it."
When the fresh food was brought in, the butler personally carried it in and saw the second young master, who hadn't shaved for several days, sitting on the floor in a daze, looking haggard.
The butler felt a pang of sympathy upon seeing this. He had watched the second young master grow up, and to him, the second young master was like half a child. It was impossible not to feel sorry for him.
The butler carefully placed the food on the ground closest to Zheng Lin. "Second Young Master, you still need to eat. Master and Madam are very worried about you, so please eat something."
Zheng Lin leaned his head against the wall and shook his head: "Take it, I'm not hungry."
"Then please have some water." The butler brought the water glass to Zheng Lin's lips.
Zheng Lin turned his head away and didn't drink.
"Don't bother me anymore, get out," Zheng Lin coldly commanded.
His eyes remained fixed blankly on one spot, without glancing at the butler.
No matter who enters this room, he won't even glance at them, as if his soul has been stolen, making it difficult for ordinary people to communicate with him.
At this moment, Zheng Youguo and He Rong also came over. When He Rong saw how haggard Zheng Lin looked, she hurriedly asked the housekeeper, "Why hasn't that psychologist arrived yet?"
Butler: "Some things have delayed me. They said they would arrive tonight."
Zheng Lin had seen many psychologists before, but none of them were effective. His condition was very complicated and was caused entirely by psychological factors.
Later, he met a foreign psychologist, which helped alleviate Zheng Lin's condition.
Therefore, every time he has an attack, he has to call this doctor; other doctors would come for nothing.
Zheng Youguo: "I was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on, so I invited Xiao Jin over."
He Rong: "I'll give her a call."
Upon hearing Su Jin's name, Zheng Lin's blank expression changed. "Don't call her. I don't want to see anyone. All of you, get out!"
Left with no other option, everyone left Zheng Lin's room.
He Rong did not have Su Jin's phone number.
She took the phone from Zheng Youguo's pocket, used facial recognition on his face, found Su Jin's number, and dialed it.
“I am Zheng Lin’s mother, and I would like to beg you to come to my house,” He Rong said.
He Rong explained the situation to Su Jin, who immediately agreed.
After hanging up the phone, He Rong pressed the phone to her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
She also knew that as long as Su Jin could come to see Zheng Lin, Zheng Lin's condition would likely improve, and there would be no need for that psychologist to come at all.
Yesterday, He Ru came to persuade Zheng Lin to eat, but Zheng Lin splashed water all over her. He Rong then realized that when he was having an attack, if he didn't like someone, then he really didn't like that person.
There's absolutely no way he and He Ru could end up together.
When Zheng Youguo saw that He Rong had lowered her voice to beg for help for Zheng Lin's sake, and that she had to beg Su Jin, whom she didn't like, he couldn't help but change his opinion of He Rong a little.
Although He Rong has been saying all these years that "I shouldn't have brought Zheng Lin back to the Zheng family back then," she has always regarded Zheng Lin as her son. She just likes to complain a few times, "He's not her own son, so he's impossible to raise properly."
The couple argued for over ten years because of Zheng Lin. Only then did Zheng Youguo remember that He Rong, when she was young, was a reasonable and gentle woman. However, after living with him, time wore away all her gentleness, making her irritable and prone to dwelling on the past. The fault wasn't He Rong's; it was his. He hadn't been a good husband.
He was a man of his word, but not a good husband. He made his wife suffer for so many years because of his deceased friend's dying wish.
