Chapter 85 What's It To Me
Tea room.
The private room on the second floor is private and quiet, cleanly decorated, with brewed Dahongpao tea placed on the wooden tea table, and the lingering aroma of tea wafting in the air.
Lin Shuwan sat upright in the chair, quietly looking at the elegant Mrs. Zhou opposite.
Mrs. Zhou was wearing a priceless handmade cheongsam, her long dark hair was tied up and meticulously groomed, and she wore a turquoise necklace of excellent quality around her neck, giving her an elegant and noble temperament.
Her eyebrows are slightly raised and her eyes are long and narrow. She is obviously a lady from a wealthy family, and she is not a easy person to get along with.
But at this moment, he was looking at Lin Shuwan with a smile, without any superior attitude, and his eyes were deliberately gentle.
"Shi Wen said that their government project was given to your company. You are quite capable for a girl."
"It's the hard work of everyone in the company, not just my own efforts."
Lin Shuwan's face was calm. She didn't think that the mayor of Hai City would pay attention to such a small matter. It was obvious that the other party came here today not just to congratulate her.
As expected, Mrs. Zhou got to the point in her next sentence.
"Our Zilang has been talking about you a lot lately. I've never seen Zilang so attentive to a girl before."
“If you haven’t seen it, take a look.”
“........”
Mrs. Zhou's expression froze on her face, and she was choked by the other party.
"Which girl doesn't Young Master Zhou care about?" Lin Shuwan sneered, "I heard that he's been staying at Guangcan every day recently, and the girl in his room is different every night."
Mrs. Zhou was not embarrassed either. She was used to it and had a decent smile on her face.
"It's normal for men to like to play. No matter how beautiful the girls outside are, they can't be brought home."
Lin Shuwan remained silent and did not respond.
What does it have to do with her?
Mrs. Zhou continued, "The last time our two families had dinner together, although things were not pleasant, Shi Wen and I didn't take it to heart. It's normal for young people to have a little temper."
Instead, he put the blame on Lin Shuwan and pretended to be generous and said he forgave her. How ridiculous!
Lin Shuwan listened calmly, waiting to see if the other party would have any more outrageous remarks.
"I heard that your father is under investigation recently. I guess your family must be having a headache lately, right?"
Lin Shuwan also heard about this matter. Lin Ruohai hinted to her many times to get along well with Zhou Zilang.
Lin Shuwan: "What do you want to say?"
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "Zi Lang likes you very much, but every time I ask you out, I get rejected. It's good for young people to make more friends. Maybe someone can help you."
"Your Excellency's favorite place to take girls to play is the hotel suite. I'm not interested. I'm not short of friends." Lin Shuwan refused coldly.
Mrs. Zhou's face turned cold at a speed visible to the naked eye. She was used to being arrogant. She had always been the object of flattery since she was a child and always looked down on others. Chatting calmly like this today was already her limit.
She revealed a conceited attitude, tried to suppress her anger, and threatened secretly, "This matter about your father can be a big deal or a small matter."
It's clear that it all depends on their decision.
Lin Shuwan was not threatened, his eyes were cold, "Whatever, he has to bear the consequences of his own actions."
Mrs. Zhou widened her eyes, as if she didn't expect Lin Shuwan to be so cruel and not even consider her own father.
She smiled suddenly, as if she saw through Lin Shuwan, "It seems that the Cheng family treats you very well. Without the Lin family, the Cheng family will be more helpful to you."
Lin Shuwan's eyes suddenly became dangerous. If eyes could be turned into swords, Madam Zhou would have been killed by the sword long ago.
Lin Shuwan warned coldly, "I have nothing to do with the Cheng family. They just raised me for a few years out of kindness, but after all, I'm not their biological child. Otherwise, why would I be in Hai City now?"
Mrs. Zhou seemed to be persuaded. She looked at Lin Shuwan and calculated in her heart. Finally, she picked up the bag arrogantly, glanced at Lin Shuwan, and left a word before leaving.
"Our Zilang likes you. As a mother, I will make sure that my son gets whatever he likes."
As for whether to marry her or just have fun with her, she still needs to think about it again.
However, Lin Ruohai is a shrewd man and would not be so foolish as to use his illegitimate daughter for marriage, so Lin Shuwan must be highly valued in the Cheng family!
In the quiet tea room, Lin Shuwan looked at the untouched cup on the table. The tea had gone cold.
Her eyes were cold and she was restless inside, with anger running through her body and nowhere to vent.
She didn't leave until the staff came over and reminded her with concern.
-
Lin family.
Lin Ruohai looked at the gift placed in the living room with some surprise. He was so flattered that he couldn't control his expression. He looked at the second son of the Lu family in surprise.
"Yunsong? You've grown so big now, come and sit down."
Lu Yunsong was well-dressed and behaved politely.
The Lu family is from Yancheng and had only come into contact with the Lin family a few years ago, so they were not very familiar with each other.
He came here today, firstly because his good friend Cheng Zhiheng asked him to, and secondly because he wanted to come and take a look himself.
The Lin family was all there. He glanced around calmly and asked politely, "Is Wanwan not here?"
"Wanwan?"
Lin Ruohai was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You mean Shuwan? She lives outside and said it was convenient for her to go to the company."
Lu Yunsong suppressed his doubts and nodded calmly.
"Is your father in good health? I heard that you plan to develop in Hai City in the future? If you need anything, you can contact Mu Cheng." Lin Ruohai raised his cheekbones slightly, and looked very warm.
He had heard that the second son of the Lu family had come to Hai City before, but he had no chance to meet him. He didn't expect that the other party would come on his own initiative.
"Thank you, Uncle and Mu Cheng. I was worried that I would be alone and helpless in Hai City, knowing only Wanwan."
"Are you very familiar with Shuwan?" Lin Ruohai tested.
Lu Yunsong smiled and nodded, "We've been playing together since we were little, and I spoiled her like my own sister."
Although he was not clear about Lin Shuwan's situation, he could imagine that he had an older brother and a daughter who had been raised by him since childhood. When things were not treated equally, Lin Shuwan would definitely be the one who was ignored. So he said this deliberately to tell them that Lin Shuwan also had a backer.
Lin Ruohai was obviously surprised and delighted. He didn't expect that Lin Shuwan and Lu Yunsong had such a relationship.
"In that case, invite Shuwan home some other day and have dinner together," said Lin Ruohai.
The Lu family is also a good choice.
Lin Yuyao sat aside, her face looking grim from the moment she started, her eyes filled with jealousy and dissatisfaction. She grumbled bitterly, "She's an illegitimate daughter, yet she's quite good at climbing up the social ladder!"
"Illegitimate daughter?"
Lu Yunsong frowned and looked around one by one. He had never heard of this.
The Lins looked a little embarrassed, and explained guiltily, "There's no need to explain too much. We all treat him the same. My wife also treats Shuwan as her own child."
Qiu Jing smiled and nodded, "Yes, I like Shuwan very much. He is very sensible."
Lu Yunsong had doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it. It was not easy for him to ask about such things, but it was understandable. No one would deliberately talk about such a bad thing.
I didn't expect Shuwan's life experience to be so difficult, so her situation in the Lin family should be even more difficult.
He smiled and agreed, "That's right, status doesn't determine everything. Wanwan has been well-behaved and cute since she was a child. No one would dislike her."
Lu Yunsong stayed at the Lin family for a short time before leaving, and Lin Mucheng saw him off to the door.
Lin Mucheng: "Yunsong, we're planning a yacht party next week. Do you want to come? Shuwan is here too."
Lu Yunsong glanced at him and nodded, "Okay."
