Chapter 66 You are the unlucky one
When the people in the living room heard this cold and low voice, their hearts skipped a beat.
Only He Tingchen has such an oppressive voice. There is no other person in the whole Yuncheng who can make people feel nervous just by hearing his voice without seeing him.
Lin Rushuang froze in place for a moment, her feet unable to move as if filled with lead.
She actually didn't expect He Tingchen to suddenly appear at the Lin family. After all, at this time, even if Lin Yuxi drugged him, it didn't cause any substantial harm to him.
She thought that what He Tingchen said to Lin Yuxi before was just a casual remark, but she didn't expect that he would actually come to her house to ask for an explanation.
The man's usual black suit made his already aggressive appearance even more sharp, his facial features were three-dimensional and sharp, and his blade-like outline gave people a sense of inhuman alienation.
The tailor-made suit perfectly highlights his superior proportions, and the tie of the same color complements his temperament.
His usually lazy hair was combed back into a slicked-back style today, making his brow bones even more striking.
He sat down straight away, his long legs crossed, his brows deep, his eyes etched with an air of unattainable nobility.
As soon as Mr. Lin saw He Tingchen, his serious face immediately broke into a smile.
"Mr. He, what brings you here? Why didn't you tell us before you came?"
He Tingchen just nodded lightly.
"Master Lin, how are you feeling recently?"
The old man nodded repeatedly: "It's okay, it's okay."
"That's good. I was worried that your body wouldn't be able to bear it."
He Tingchen rested his elbow on his chin and tapped his cheek with his fingertips. His lazy emphasis made everyone present hold their breath.
Lin Rushang came back to her senses and took a deep breath. This man really dared to say anything.
In the Lin family, Old Man Lin is the authority. Moreover, he used to be a soldier, so the bloodiness in his bones will never change, and he will not allow anyone to refute him.
This is also the reason why Lin Jianguo asked her to live in his home but was rejected.
Lin Jianguo couldn't resist the old man, and she wasn't the type of person who liked to be bound. Living together would only cause more trouble for Lin Jianguo.
It would be better to move out and be alone.
Old Master Lin was also stunned by what He Tingchen said, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
The voice was serious with a hint of anger.
"What do you mean, Mr. He? You're not here to be a guest, but to settle an account?"
He Tingchen bent his knuckles slightly and tapped lightly on the table, his brows and eyes were deep, but just sitting there gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"I think you, old man, know what the second young lady of your Lin family did. It seems that after the Lin family got the daughter, not only did it not bring glory to the family, but it also destroyed your family's reputation."
After saying this, He Tingchen curled the corners of his thin lips and chuckled softly.
The sound was not loud, but everyone in the living room could hear it.
Lin Yuxi's face turned extremely ugly after hearing He Tingchen's words.
After all, Mr. Lin is a former soldier and has some traditions in his bones, otherwise he wouldn't attach so much importance to pure bloodline.
His tone softened a bit.
"Yuxi is still young. She might have believed the nonsense spread by those people outside and made a mistake. I heard that Mr. He was not affected at all. Why don't you let this matter go for my sake?"
"Yuxi had also heard of Mr. He's name for a long time and wanted to meet him through her sister. Actually, it was Rushuang who introduced Yuxi to Mr. He."
After saying that, Mr. Lin frowned and looked at Lin Rushang again, his tone full of accusation.
"Rushuang, what's wrong with you? Your sister is ignorant, are you going to act like that too?"
Lin Rushuang remained silent beside him, but couldn't help sneering.
The old man was planning to put all the blame on her.
She usually refused to acknowledge her, thinking that she was not of the Lin family's bloodline but just an outsider. Now that someone needs to take the blame for Lin Yuxi, she immediately blames her sister.
Seeing this, Lin Yuxi hurriedly shifted the blame on herself to Lin Rushang.
"Yeah, this really has nothing to do with me. My sister asked me to wait there, and she said you were difficult to deal with, so I...I came up with this idea."
Lin Rushuang didn't know how to evaluate this family. Well, her existence was just to take the blame for the Lin family.
She did not argue for herself. As the old man said, this was her way of repaying the Lin family for raising her over the years.
He Tingchen's deep and cold eyes subconsciously glanced at Lin Rushang, who was silent and had a red and slightly swollen right cheek.
She lowered her eyebrows slightly, and the emotion in her eyes could not be seen. She looked very thin, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
He Tingchen glanced at Lin Rushang with his sharp eyes, and spoke slowly and with a hint of coldness.
"Miss Lin, won't you speak up for yourself?"
Lin Rushuang pulled the corner of her lips nonchalantly.
"It's indeed my fault. I wanted to introduce Lin Yuxi to Mr. He, and I was the one who handed the problematic wine to Mr. He. If Mr. He wants to hold me accountable, then I should hold him accountable."
She thought that if she did this, He Tingchen would let the Lin family go.
But He Tingchen suddenly sneered and slapped the table, which was like a strong wind and huge waves.
"Do you, the Lin family, think I'm a fool? Or do you need me to check the surveillance footage to see who put the drug in the wine glass?"
Lin Yuxi's face turned pale and her legs went limp with fear.
Lin Rushuang walked forward calmly, but her tightly clenched fingers betrayed her.
She said to He Tingchen, "Mr. He, even if this matter is Lin Yuxi's fault, I bear the primary responsibility."
Lin Yuxi nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it's her responsibility, Mr. He. It's clearly my sister who wanted to climb up the big tree of you, and ended up framing me. She wanted me to drug you and take the opportunity to have sex with you."
"My brother-in-law's former lover has returned. She's now thinking about finding another partner, but unfortunately, Mr. He, you're the unlucky one she chose."
Lin Rushuang couldn't help but frown. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to repay the Lin family for raising her. Since they would never meet again in the future, nothing else mattered.
Who knew that this idiot Lin Yuxi would actually contradict her here.
She was afraid that He Tingchen couldn't see that these were all her own actions.
Seeing He Tingchen's heavy face, Lin Yuxi felt proud in her heart. Lin Rushang was simply seeking death.
Next, she was waiting to see the show. Lin Rushang must have thought that she was very smart and deliberately took all the responsibility on herself.
But she must not know what it means to be too clever by half.
What does it mean to do the opposite? Lin Rushuang really knows how to do it.
Lin Rushuang spread her hands and looked at Lin Yuxi as if she couldn't save her.
"Lin Yuxi, since you're courting death, I won't stop you. Tell Mr. He clearly that it was you who drugged the wine, hoping to become his wife overnight."
Lin Yuxi was stunned. She really didn't expect Lin Rushang to say this in front of He Tingchen.
Now everyone's eyes are focused on He Tingchen, wondering how he will react.
