[Chapter 390 No One Can Stop It]
Lan Weiyu was suddenly overwhelmed with thoughts and her expression became complicated.
Lin Yin noticed that Lan Weiyu was acting strangely and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Lan Weiyu quickly came to her senses, trying to hide her inner turmoil, and said with a forced smile: "No, nothing, this jade is very beautiful and suits you very well."
She took out the jade pendant and helped Lin Yin put it on her neck. "Since it's a gift from your Uncle Bai, you should wear it."
Lin Yin had no objection.
"It looks really good on Yu'er." Lan Weiyu showed a loving smile in her eyes.
"It's almost time, let's go back to the banquet hall." Huo Jingze said.
The three of them went downstairs together.
As soon as I reached the corner of the stairs, I met Liu Meilan and Bai Qingyan.
As soon as Bai Qingyan saw Lin Yin, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face.
He walked forward quickly and said gently, "Rose, you look so beautiful tonight."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Lin Yin.
How could Huo Jingze let him have his wish? He slightly turned his body, like a solid barrier, blocking Lin Yin in a calm and just right manner.
At the same time, with a smile on his face, he politely extended his hand and shook hands with Bai Qingyan, "Welcome to my wife's family recognition banquet."
The word "wife" must be pronounced especially clearly and with emphasis, implicitly declaring sovereignty.
Bai Qingyan's hand was stopped by Huo Jingze, and he hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only smile awkwardly, "It's my duty."
Huo Jingze took the opportunity to protect Lin Yin behind him, cutting off the possibility of contact between the two.
This was clearly intentional.
Even though he knew, Bai Qingyan could only maintain a smile and secretly feel angry in his heart.
The scene fell into a delicate stalemate for a moment.
Liu Meilan's eyes fell on Lin Yin. She inadvertently caught a glimpse of the jade pendant on her neck and her eyes were suddenly shocked.
She forced herself to calm down, forced a smile on her face, and praised sincerely: "Lin Yin, your jade pendant is really exquisite. I have never seen such a special style. Where did you get it?"
Lin Yin didn't think much about it and said truthfully: "This was given to me by Uncle Bai."
really.
Liu Meilan's heart felt as if it had been hit hard, and the smile on her face instantly became stiff, but she still had to force a smile, "So that's how it is. I didn't expect that he even gave me a gift separately. It seems that Jianjun really likes you."
She appeared calm on the surface, but in fact, she was almost going crazy with jealousy.
That is the Bai family's heirloom!
Only pass down heirlooms to daughters-in-law!
Obviously, she was Bai Jianjun's legitimate wife, but after so many years in the Bai family, Bai Jianjun had never been willing to give the jade pendant to her, but now he easily gave it to Lin Yin.
Liu Meilan gritted her teeth secretly, her nails digging into her palms, hatred and jealousy almost bursting out.
Lan Weiyu knew what she was thinking at a glance, and a mocking arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She gently pulled Lin Yin's hand and said, "Yu'er, your grandpa and his family will be back soon. Let's go and see them off together."
After saying that, without even saying hello to Liu Meilan, he took Lin Yin and Huo Jingze away, leaving Liu Meilan and Bai Qingyan standing there.
Liu Meilan looked at the mother and daughter's receding backs, her eyes full of resentment.
One day, she will take back everything that belongs to her!
…
In a bustling yet hidden corner of the city, in a quiet cafe.
Liu Meilan sat in the corner with a gloomy face, tapping her fingers on the table nervously.
Not long after, Hu Shao hurried over. He was wearing a neat suit and looked to be in his early fifties.
When Liu Meilan saw him, she immediately stood up and spoke anxiously: "What do you think we should do now? If Lin Yin doesn't marry Qingyan, will the Bai family's property really fall into the hands of Lan Weiyu and Lin Yin?"
Hu Shao frowned slightly and whispered, "According to the law, this is the case. Bai Jianjun has already made a will, and the estate will be inherited according to the will. He did not include you three in it. All the property will be given to Lan Weiyu and her daughter."
Liu Meilan's face instantly turned red, her eyes widened, and she yelled angrily, "Bai Jianjun is such a heartless, heartless guy! I have been with him for so many years and have given him everything, but his will doesn't even include the names of the three of us, mother and son. All his property is going to be given to Lan Weiyu and her illegitimate daughter. This is simply too much!"
Hu Shao gently held her hand and tried to comfort her: "Don't be angry yet, we have to find a way. At present, the only way to survive is to let Qingyan and Lin Yin get married and turn the property into joint property of the couple."
Liu Meilan couldn't help but slam the table: "But Lin Yin and Huo Jingze have such a good relationship, why would she agree to marry Qingyan?"
During the rescue in Haicheng, she accidentally discovered the birthmark on Lin Yin's back shoulder, which was only found on the daughter of the Bai family.
When she did a DNA test, it turned out that Lin Yin was indeed the daughter of Bai Jianjun and Lan Weiyu.
She wanted to take advantage of Lin Yin's amnesia and make her give birth to Bai Qingyan's child.
But she didn't expect that Lin Yin was actually Huo Jingze's wife. It was all her fault for not checking her background in advance.
Hu Shao pondered for a moment and said, "This is indeed difficult, but if we don't do this, we will have no chance. You also know Bai Jianjun's character. It is difficult to change his decision."
Liu Meilan bit her lip, a look of determination flashing in her eyes: "I can't let our son be left with nothing. I have to find a way to destroy the relationship between Lin Yin and Huo Jingze and force her to marry Qingyan."
Hu Shao said nervously, "Meilan, you should be careful and don't let anyone catch you."
Liu Meilan snorted coldly: "I know my limits. Don't forget, Qingyan is our son, we must fight for him."
Hu Shao nodded: "I know. But you must not act impulsively. I will try my best to cooperate with you in legal matters."
Liu Meilan stood up and straightened her clothes: "Well, I'll find you if I have something."
After saying that, he hurriedly left the cafe.
…
As soon as Liu Meilan stepped into the living room, she heard Bai Qingyan and Bai Jianjun arguing fiercely.
"Dad, I have my own business in Haicheng. I don't want to resign and go back to Haicheng. You can't force me!" Bai Qingyan said loudly with a flushed face.
Bai Jianjun was so angry that his face turned blue, and he pointed at Bai Qingyan with a trembling finger: "If you don't return to Haicheng, don't recognize me as your father anymore! I, Bai Jianjun, will keep my word!"
"Dad, don't push me!" Bai Qingyan stiffened his neck and refused to give in. The atmosphere in the living room was tense.
Seeing this, Liu Meilan rolled her eyes and immediately changed her strategy.
She took a few quick steps forward and advised earnestly, "Qingyan, don't be stubborn with your dad. Lin Yin is already Huo Jingze's wife, just forget about her and don't make the family relationship so awkward because of her."
When Bai Qingyan heard this, he was struck by lightning, and his face was full of shock and sadness.
He looked at Liu Meilan in disbelief: "Mom, how can you say that?"
It was obvious that Liu Meilan supported him before!
Liu Meilan ignored his reaction and pulled his arm and walked towards the room.
After entering the room, Bai Qingyan couldn't help but growl: "Mom, why did you suddenly change sides!"
Liu Meilan closed the door and said softly, "Son, I support you, but you've also seen that your father is too tough. If you go against him now, nothing good will come of it. Why don't we agree to the marriage for now, so that we can stay in the imperial capital first and then make plans for the future."
"What if Dad really lets me marry another woman?" Bai Qingyan was unwilling.
Liu Meilan comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I will help you buy time."
Bai Qingyan frowned, struggled internally, and finally nodded helplessly: "Okay, Mom, this is the only way."
Afterwards, Bai Qingyan followed Liu Meilan downstairs.
Bai Qingyan looked at Bai Jianjun, took a deep breath and said, "Dad, I can agree to the marriage, but the premise is that I want to stay in the imperial capital."
Although Bai Jianjun was still furious, he knew that he couldn't push his son too hard. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Okay, since you agreed, let's go on a blind date tomorrow. Don't drag it out any longer!"
Bai Qingyan gritted his teeth and responded, "Okay."
Liu Meilan stood aside, a calculating look in her eyes.
Whatever she wants will definitely fall into her hands.
No one can stop it.
