She had never been to Shenggui and didn't know how to get to the Tianzi Room, so she went to the counter to ask.
Unexpectedly, when the staff heard that we were here for the Lin family's banquet, they immediately turned cold and said, "Sorry, we can't bring anyone up at will, unless the people in the private room come down to pick you up in person to prove that you are really their guest."
Lin Wu said expressionlessly: "How come I didn't know Sheng Gui had such a rule? Is this what the Lin family meant?"
The staff member became impatient: "Who does it matter to you? Don't you know who you are? It's good enough that we let you in! If you want to wait, wait. If not, get out!"
He rolled his eyes and went to do other things.
People were coming and going in the hall. Lin Wu was standing alone in front of the counter, attracting a lot of attention.
Lin Wu's eyes turned cold and he turned and left.
At this time, her cell phone rang.
"Wuwu, it's grandpa."
After the call was connected, an old and weak voice came from the other end, and the voice started coughing before he finished speaking. Lin Wu frowned when he heard it.
She: “Is your condition serious?”
"No, no." Grandpa Lin finally stopped coughing and said lovingly, "I heard from Shenghai and his wife that they specially prepared a table for you at Shenggui tonight, right? Wuwu, it shows that they still love you. When I think of this, Grandpa feels much better."
Lin Wu didn't say anything.
Old Master Lin asked in confusion: "Wuwu, why didn't you hear Shenghai and the others' voices? Aren't you at Shenggui yet at this time?"
Lin Wu pressed his brows and said, "We're here. They're talking outside."
Grandpa Lin sounded much happier, but he was still coughing: "You haven't seen each other for six years, so have a good meal. After all, we are family, I believe you won't be too unfamiliar. Wuwu, grandpa's old bones won't last much longer. If I can see you all well before I die, I will have no regrets."
Lin Wu nodded silently, then changed the subject at the right time and asked how Grandpa Lin's recent treatment was going.
Lin Wu hung up the phone only after hearing what Mr. Lin said was tiring.
After standing there for a long time, Lin Wu finally walked to the rest area on one side of the hall and called the Lin family.
However, none of them got through.
She lowered her eyes to look at the time displayed on the screen and stopped calling. She contacted Zheng Qi to ask about her grandfather's condition, and then continued to look at the old files Zheng Qi had sent her earlier on the tablet.
It was almost ten o'clock before Lin Wu heard a familiar voice coming from the elevator entrance not far away.
The Lin family came out of the elevator and Manager Song from Sheng Gui personally saw them off. They were all talking and laughing.
Obviously he had eaten and drunk enough.
Lin Wu's eyes were calm as he put away his tablet, stood up and walked over.
In fact, the Lin family had long forgotten that Lin Wu was coming. Seeing that they didn't mention it, the shrewd Manager Song didn't mention it either.
Lin Shenghai smiled and said to Manager Song: "Thank you for your hospitality, Manager Song. Next time I come, I will definitely bring you some small gifts."
"I don't deserve this!"
Manager Song didn't dare to accept it, but seeing that Lin Shenghai was determined to give it, he just looked at Lin Qian meaningfully and said, "Boss Lin, you have a good daughter."
With the Lin family's daughter around, is there any fear that the Lin family won't be able to prosper in the future?
Lin Shenghai looked at Lin Qian in surprise. Fang Ruling and the other two also heard it and were surprised and happy.
Is it that Manager Song has taken a fancy to their daughter, or is it that the person behind Sheng Gui has taken a fancy to...
Lin Qian lowered her head shyly, but suddenly caught a glimpse of someone in front of her out of the corner of her eye.
After just one look, she was stunned.
The others were already paying attention to Lin Qian, and when they saw this, they subconsciously looked over.
The moment their eyes met Lin Wu, everyone stopped.
Lin Jiangbai felt that Lin Wu looked familiar and spoke in confusion.
Lin Wu held the bag in one hand and put the other hand in his trouser pocket: "You invited me to North City, but you don't know who I am?"
"Lin Wu?"
The Lin family then realized that they had seen the photos that Grandpa Lin took out before.
But none of them were as impressive as this moment.
The girl has a tall and slim figure. The black silk shirt on her upper body highlights her thin and straight shoulders and back, while the dark blue jeans on her lower body highlight her straight and slender legs. She has a strong aura.
Her face is even more delicate. Her skin is porcelain white, her almond eyes are slightly upturned, and when she smiles, she looks innocent and sweet. When she doesn't smile, her eyebrows and eyes are sharp and cold, which makes her look very intimidating.
When she stands there, she is so beautiful that others can't take their eyes off her.
Manager Song subconsciously glanced at the Lin family and felt that Lin Wu was very different from the Lin family.
The Lin family members never expected that after six years, Lin Wu had become so eye-catching.
The first one to come back to her senses was Lin Qian. Jealousy flashed across her eyes, and she smiled gently, "It's you, sister. You're finally here. You must be exhausted from the journey."
Others were drawn back to attention.
Lin Jiangchuan said dissatisfiedly: "Why did you come just now? You made us wait for you for so long, you are really good!"
Lin Wu said sarcastically, "Wait for me? Who is waiting for whom? You guys are getting better at confusing right and wrong."
"How do you talk like that?!"
Lin Shenghai got angry when he saw her second-rate look.
How could this look like a rich lady? No wonder he didn't like her before.
Lin Wu raised his eyes and looked at him: "What did you say? Just say that. Could it be that after not seeing you for six years, you are so deaf that you can't even hear what others say?"
"Lin Wu, you've learned this after just a few years in the countryside?!" Lin Shenghai had lived a smooth life so far and had met few people who dared to talk back to him like this, so he immediately scolded him.
Lin Qian was startled and subconsciously grabbed Lin Shenghai.
Fang Ruling held her down, glared at Lin Wu, and spoke to Lin Qian in a softer voice: "Qianqian, don't worry about it. Lin Wu has been talking back to her elders like this since she was a child. Now it seems that it's no wonder that she didn't inherit the Lin family's upbringing. It turns out that she is not a daughter of the Lin family at all!"
"Lin family's upbringing?"
Lin Wu thought this was really funny. "What kind of upbringing do you have in the Lin family? You are hypocritical, insincere, and have holes in your brain? Oh, I should be glad that I didn't inherit this kind of upbringing."
If Lin Shenghai was the only one who was angry before, now everyone else couldn't hold back anymore.
Lin Wu's words scolded them all!
Lin Jiangbai stared at Lin Wu gloomily and said, "You went to the countryside for a few years, so Grandpa had to come to Beicheng for treatment. It turned out that he was sick because of you. With your behavior, saying that your last name is Lin is an insult to Grandpa."
Lin Wu said calmly, "When I was still a member of the Lin family, you couldn't control me. Now that I'm not one anymore, do you think it will work if you use Grandpa as an excuse?"
"Why doesn't it work?" Lin Jiangbai looked at Lin Wu with disdain.
Lin Wu's face suddenly darkened.
Lin Jiangchuan didn't want to look at her, and urged: "Dad, brother, stop talking nonsense to her!"
Lin Shenghai looked down at Lin Wu and said, "Then make your words clear now!"
"Don't think that asking you to return to North City means that I want you to return to the Lin family. That's impossible!"
"Qianqian finally came back, and we must compensate her, so you can no longer occupy the identity of the Lin family's daughter. At the press conference next week for Qianqian's return to her ancestral home, we will announce in public that you have no relationship with the Lin family anymore, and you must be there!"
