Lin Qingtong glanced at the screen, then answered the call from Shen Xue, her tone calm.
"What's up?"
Upon hearing Lin Qingtong's voice, Shen Xue became furious and launched into a frenzied interrogation.
"What exactly did you do to my daughter?"
Lin Qingtong scoffed and replied, "It's not that I did anything to your daughter; she brought it on herself by offending the Shen family and being taken away by Dongfang William."
Shen Xue didn't know who Dongfang William was, and stared wide-eyed as she questioned him.
"Who is William of the East? Is he rich?"
Lin Qingtong found it amusing that this man only cared about money; even with his daughter in that situation, he still had the mind to worry about whether she had money or not.
"William East is very rich, but he..."
Before Lin Qingtong could finish speaking, Shen Xue interrupted with a smug look on her face.
"I think you're just jealous of my daughter for finding someone so rich, even richer than Shen Tinghe."
Lin Qingtong didn't understand her logic, and simply repeated what she had just said.
“Your daughter is in a dangerous situation right now. Eastern William is no pushover. You can go and investigate what exactly is going on.”
She was too lazy to waste words with Shen Xue and simply told her to investigate on her own.
Unexpectedly, Shen Xue smiled without caring at all.
"What's a little hardship if you have money?"
Lin Qingtong really didn't want to talk to her anymore, so she hung up directly.
Meanwhile, Shen Xue specifically went online to investigate Dongfang William and learned that he was the son of a large family abroad, which immediately made her eyes light up.
"My God, that must be incredibly wealthy."
She spent a lot of money to find where William Dongfang lived, only to discover that he actually lived in a villa community.
Moreover, he spent a large sum of money to buy the entire neighborhood and strictly prohibited others from entering.
Shen Xue thought about how her daughter was taken away by Dongfang William and ended up with him, and that she might eventually get a share of all those villas.
She clapped her hands with joy at home.
That's wonderful, her daughter is really amazing.
Hearing Shen Xue's commotion, Lin Yan asked curiously.
What's making you so happy?
Shen Xue glanced at Lin Yan, her eyes full of disdain, and answered in a flat tone.
"It's nothing, you should rest at home. My girlfriends invited me to play cards."
She left after saying just one sentence, completely ignoring Lin Yan shouting behind her.
She soon arrived at the gate of the villa where William Dongfang was located.
A dozen bodyguards are stationed here, strictly prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving.
She was acting suspiciously at the door, which quickly attracted the attention of the bodyguards.
"What are you doing? Get out of here right now."
Shen Xue then smiled and stepped forward to explain, "I am the mother of Mr. Dongfang's woman, and I want to talk to him about something."
Upon hearing the name "Dongfang William's woman," the other person instinctively thought of Lin Qingtong, whom he had recently been pursuing.
"Are you from the Lin family?"
Shen Xue sensed something was wrong, but didn't say anything, just smiled and agreed.
"Yes, I am from the Lin family."
The bodyguard immediately went in to inform William of the situation.
Upon hearing that it was Lin Qingtong's mother, Dongfang William's eyes lit up immediately, and he invited her in.
At this moment, in a corner of the villa, Lin Jiaorui, dressed in thin clothes, was kneeling in the corner with a dog leash around her neck.
She was wearing a mask, so you couldn't tell who she was at all.
Shen Xue followed the people into the villa and was immediately captivated by its magnificent and opulent decorations.
William Dongfang sat lazily on the sofa and gestured for Shen Xue to sit down.
The moment Lin Jiaorui saw her, she immediately ran towards her.
However, her movements were restricted, and she could only make whimpering sounds in this direction.
Shen Xue glanced at him again, feeling that the man looked somewhat familiar, but her attention was quickly diverted to Dongfang William.
"You must be Auntie. What can I do for you?"
Shen Xue immediately smiled and replied upon hearing Dongfang William's words.
"I came to see you today because of my daughter. I know you like her, but you can't leave things like this without explaining yourself."
William Dongfang was slightly puzzled. He hadn't even won Lin Qingtong's heart yet, and her mother had already come knocking on his door. This was too strange.
"Then what do you mean, Auntie?"
Shen Xue bluntly stated, "I want half of the house in this villa, plus a dowry of 200 million. That amount of money shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
"In addition, I hope you can hold a grand wedding to announce to the whole world that you are with my daughter Lin Jiaorui."
William was initially pleased, thinking that since conditions were being offered, it meant everything was negotiable.
It's better than before, Lin Qingtong always seemed indifferent.
Upon hearing the name Lin Jiaorui from Shen Xue's mouth, he immediately let out a cold laugh.
"Aren't you overestimating your daughter's importance to me?"
Shen Xue was stunned for a moment, not yet realizing what was going on, and was only thinking about getting angry in an attempt to get more things.
"How can you talk like that? My daughter is with you, so you should take responsibility."
William Dongfang's smile grew even brighter. His slender finger pointed to Lin Jiaorui in the corner beside him.
"Why don't you take a look at who that person is?"
Shen Xue looked slightly puzzled and followed the direction of his finger, where she saw a disheveled woman wearing a mask.
"Who is this person? What does he have to do with me?"
Unexpectedly, William from the East laughed so hard he almost fell over.
"You still say Lin Jiaorui is your daughter, but you can't even recognize her."
Chen Xue froze on the spot, then lunged at Lin Jiaorui as if struck by lightning.
She removed Lin Jiaorui's mask and found that her mouth was stuffed with something, and her body and face were covered in bruises. She looked extremely disheveled.
