Yao Yining raised his flattering smile again and looked at Lin Xuqiu.
"Oh, Xuqiu and I are truly destined to meet. It turns out we're cousins."
Grandma didn't understand and asked curiously.
"Yining, how do you know Xuqiu?"
"Aunt, Xuqiu is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wen Group. Xuqiu and I even had a party together in Kyoto."
"Back then, I asked Xuqiu to take care of our door and window business. If he had known we were related, Xuqiu would have kept the money within his family, right?"
After saying these words, Yao Yining blinked at Lin Xuqiu.
Yao Yining's husband Li Maocheng also got involved.
"Yes, niece, after all, you and I are family. As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. Plus, our doors and windows are incredibly cost-effective..."
Lin Xuqiu looked at the couple with a cold face as they talked to each other and boasted about themselves.
Lin Cheng's expression turned ugly, and his eyes were filled with impatience.
Their family and their cousin's family have not had any contact for several years. After their cousin married and moved to Kyoto, she rarely returned to City F.
Today, my cousin's family suddenly came to ask for money. It turned out that they wanted to promote their son-in-law Li Maocheng's business.
Lin Cheng couldn't stand it any longer and spoke out to stop him.
"Cousin, this is our family gathering, don't talk about these irrelevant things."
Yao Yining, who was interrupted, wanted to act like an elder and scold Lin Cheng, his junior.
Finally, Lin Zhidong spoke.
"Xuqiu just got home and must be a little tired. Ah Cheng, take Xuqiu upstairs to rest first."
Lin Cheng understood what his father meant, so he turned to look at Lin Xuqiu.
"Xuqiu, why don't you come upstairs with me first."
"Um."
Lin Xuqiu had an indifferent expression and followed Lin Cheng away.
Yao Yining wanted to stop him, but his grandfather stopped him with a look.
Grandpa Lin Zhenye glanced at everyone.
"Everyone, I'm very happy to be your guest at my son's house today, but it's almost time today, so everyone should go home as soon as possible."
Grandpa has ordered us to leave.
Yao Yining was unwilling to give in and looked at his mother with a desperate look.
Mother Yao received her daughter's signal. Although she was also afraid of her elder brother, she still spoke with gritted teeth.
"Brother, we are Xu Qiu's elders after all. She hasn't given us a good face yet. Does she look down on our Lin family?"
Lin Zhenye sat on the sofa, slapped the armrest of the sofa heavily with his hand, and cursed with full force.
"Are you acting like elders? Why would Xu Qiu be so nice to you?"
"Look at your daughter and son-in-law. They came to our house to sell something. What do they think of the Lin family?"
Yao's mother was so frightened by her eldest brother's aura that she lowered her head and said nothing.
She originally disagreed with her daughter's behavior, but her daughter's situation in the Li family was not good. If the Li family went bankrupt, what would happen to her daughter and her grandchildren?
Seeing that his mother was so useless, Yao Yining begged Lin Zhenye.
"Uncle, we have no other choice. Maocheng Doors and Windows' business has plummeted, and we are in debt. We must have a big order to save it."
"This is a trivial matter for the Wen Group, and Xu Qiu is unwilling to help his own family?"
Yao's mother also echoed.
"Yes, big brother, this is just a small matter for Xuqiu, but it is a huge matter for Yining and Maocheng's family. Please help us."
Li Maocheng called several of his children to join the begging queue.
"Uncle, please help us for the sake of these children. If Xu Qiu doesn't help and the company goes bankrupt, my whole family will have to suffer. Can you really bear it?"
The Lin family had never seen such a scene before, and their faces became extremely ugly.
Lin Zhidong was furious when he saw so many people shamelessly threatening his daughter, but he couldn't speak over his father to stop them.
Lin Zhenye looked at the old and young people, his face flushed with anger, and he pointed at Li Maocheng.
"Ridiculous! You don't have the ability to run the company well, yet you blame it on my granddaughter. If you were capable, you would go find the orders yourself instead of begging for it like this."
"All of you get out of the Lin family and don't come here again."
Seeing his father speak, Lin Zhidong also spoke up to drive them away.
But the Yao and Li families were not willing to leave just like that, and they started crying again.
In the end, everyone left in a bad mood and the farce ended.

Lin Cheng took Lin Xuqiu to a room decorated in very pink.
Lin Xuqiu frowned slightly and said with disgust.
"Are all the rooms in your house of this style?"
"Mom specially had someone decorate it like this, thinking you would like it.
She sat lazily on the sofa, throwing her bag casually.
"I don't plan to live here, you don't need to prepare these."
Lin Cheng also sat down.
"It's up to you whether to stay or not. We won't force you."
"I want to apologize for what happened just now. I really didn't expect that a relative who I don't usually interact with would come to ask for money today."
Lin Xuqiu looked indifferent.
"It's okay. If you hadn't said anything just now, I would have just packed up and left. They wouldn't have been able to do anything to me."
The two paused for a moment, and Lin Xuqiu suddenly asked.
"I'm a little curious, how did your attitude towards me change so quickly? I remember that before, you always mentioned Lin Xi."
"Are your goals the same as these relatives'?"
Lin Cheng's face turned a little gloomy.
"Xuqiu, we are blood relatives. There is absolutely no way I could approach you with the intention of profiting from you."
