"Hey! Lin Chu, don't be so heartless!"
"MaiMai and I haven't seen each other for so long, why don't you let MaiMai come stay at my place tonight?"
Even if we separate...
Seeing that Lin Chu showed her no respect whatsoever, Su Lin immediately lost her temper and stood up to argue.
However, the word "divorce" was not uttered yet.
Lin Chu's cold gaze immediately blocked her view, and she subconsciously noticed that her daughter in his arms was looking away and her little hands were clenched tightly.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Although she doesn't usually need to do housework or take care of her daughter.
But after all, she was her own daughter, and she couldn't bear to let her child see her parents arguing and getting a divorce in front of her, so she could only shut up and swallow her words.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanyuan, the assistant lawyer who had been following behind Su Lin, stepped forward somewhat shyly.
"Hello, I am Ms. Su's legal assistant."
“My client has the right to see the child before the custody issue is finally resolved. I hope you won’t be so heartless.”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people present changed.
This seemingly gentle and shy girl actually has the makings of a sharp and assertive manner when she speaks.
You can tell what kind of approach the lawyer she works for just by looking at her.
Lin Chu subconsciously exchanged a glance with Ge Lan, and already understood what was going on.
It's obvious that this is a retaliatory tactic by the opposing lawyers in response to their previous post to quell online public opinion; they've sent people to demonstrate so quickly.
He really has a decisive and efficient style when it comes to doing things.
With someone backing her up, Su Lin spoke with much more confidence.
"That's right, I absolutely have to stay with Mai Mai tonight!"
"It's not like I have nowhere to stay."
"How could you possibly mistreat my daughter?"
Why should Mai Mai be allowed to go with you?
"It's still uncertain who Mai Mai will stay with in the future!"
Seeing Su Lin acting like a bully, taking advantage of her master's power and becoming increasingly aggressive, Lin Chu frowned even more.
These days he has been paying extra attention to his daughter's mental and emotional state, trying to avoid mentioning anything related to the divorce, and he has no intention of involving his daughter at all.
I just want to wait until my daughter has gradually come to accept the outcome before I can have a proper, open talk with her.
But now Su Lin is clearly desperate and reckless.
They started openly fighting for custody in front of the children.
Sure enough, after hearing her mother's fierce tone, Mai Mai's little face was filled with tension and sadness. In reality, she was just young, not stupid.
With so much gossip and the flow of information online, even if she only occasionally heard the sounds from other people's videos, she could vaguely understand what it meant for her parents to no longer be together.
These days, she has only been slowly and gradually accepting this fact.
Seeing her parents arguing, she panicked and immediately looked pitiful with tears welling up in her eyes. She stretched out her little arms and hugged Lin Chu's neck.
"Dad, don't let Mom go..."
Seeing Mai Mai's heartbroken state, even if Lin Chu was heartless, she couldn't openly drive Su Lin away at this moment.
I could only suppress my anger and force myself to calm down.
After calming her daughter down, she turned to Su Lin with a cold expression.
“If you really want to spend time with Mai Mai, then let’s have dinner together tonight. Ge Lan just came from the south, and I also want to entertain her.”
“They’ve been MaiMai’s ski instructor for most of the day, so there’s no way they’d let her figure out her own food and lodging.”
"Perfect timing, Huang Yiyi has also gone to pick up her child, so we'll all have dinner together tonight."
"To prevent some unscrupulous people from creating edited videos, spreading rumors based on hearsay, and stirring up trouble online!"
As she said this, Lin Chu's gaze fell unceremoniously on Zhu Yuanyuan, the lawyer's assistant who had just been quite imposing.
Zhu Yuanyuan felt the warning in Lin Chu's gaze, but ultimately lacked the mental fortitude to withstand it, and subconsciously avoided him a bit.
With no one to support Su Lin, she no longer had the confidence to take the child away.
However, that was not her purpose in the first place.
Su Lin could only pretend to be unwilling and agree, nodding helplessly.
"Alright, let's eat together then. You can arrange the accommodation."
"Anyway, I'm going to stay with MaiMai tonight!"
Seeing how easily Su Lin had compromised, Lin Chu became more wary.
It's clear she didn't come just to see her child; she must have had another purpose.
However, with thorough preparations, there was nothing she could exploit.
With that in mind, he immediately nodded and spoke.
“Okay, I don’t mind if you spend more time with the kids. If you’re willing, it’ll be good news for Mai Mai.”
“Well then, I’ve had the villa at home cleaned and all the bedding and household items replaced. Let Ge Lan stay at the villa while she’s here.”
"It's convenient because there are nannies there who can cook and clean."
“After dinner tonight, why don’t you take Mai Mai back to the villa and stay there for the night?”
Upon hearing this, Su Lin's eyes lit up, and she secretly rejoiced.
She had prepared so much, even making a special trip to the ski resort to find her daughter, all for this one step. And it was exactly as Attorney Song had planned, down to the last detail!
However, in order not to reveal her true intentions, she pretended to reluctantly agree.
She immediately tried to curry favor with Lin Chu and compete for her daughter Mai Mai, but Lin Chu ruthlessly rejected her and walked away, leaving her behind.
Lin Chu, holding Mai Mai, called Ge Lan and together they walked to the other side to meet up with Huang Yiyi.
After a brief discussion, Huang Yiyi did not refuse.
After all, she couldn't leave Ge Lan alone to face Su Lin, so she had no choice but to accompany her to the dinner party.
I brought my two children along, so that Mai Mai would have some company.
The three of them then asked the ski instructor to help them pack their equipment and left the ski resort together.
Su Lin and Zhu Yuanyuan followed closely behind the group, whispering about their plans for the evening.
"Ms. Su, you must find an opportunity tonight to look for evidence of Lin Chu's new song. Perhaps there are related manuscripts and audio files in the recording studio in the basement of that villa you mentioned."
"If we get evidence that he wrote a new song during our marriage, we'll have a better chance of winning the copyright battle in court!"
Upon hearing this, Su Lin nodded to herself.
When it comes to matters of interest, she certainly won't back down, much less be careless!
Just as the two of them were whispering and plotting.
Lin Chu, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and spoke loudly to Zhu Yuanyuan.
"That legal assistant, Zhu Yuanyuan, right?"
"How about we have dinner together tonight? I can introduce you to some industry veterans!"
