"Sister Yan, what should we do?"
Twenty minutes later, Mo Yan hurried to the community where Lin Yao lived.
Fangfang was waiting at the door anxiously. When she saw Mo Yan coming, she hurried forward and asked.
"Let's go up and talk to uncle first."
Mo Yan and Fang Fang took the elevator together and came to the door of Lin Yao's apartment. Mo Yan knocked on the door.
"who?"
Lin Duanzheng's voice came from inside.
"Uncle Lin, this is Mo Yan. We just spoke on the phone."
Mo Yan replied.
"What are you doing here? Didn't I make it very clear? Lin Yao has nothing to do with you anymore."
Lin Duanzheng walked to the door and spoke coldly to Mo Yan outside.
"Uncle Lin, I'm not only Lin Yao's agent, but also her friend. If she really wants to leave Kyoto, could you let me meet her one last time, just as a farewell?"
Mo Yan thought about it and spoke in a voice as gentle as possible.
After a moment's silence, the door of the apartment opened with a click. A man in his fifties stood at the door, looking down at Mo Yan and Fangfang condescendingly.
He stood straight with regular features, and was somewhat similar to Lin Yao, but his expression was extremely serious, as if he always had a stern face. In addition, his stature was tall, and Mo Yan felt suffocated when he looked down at her like that.
This person is so serious!
Mo Yan took a breath, smiled and said to Lin Duanzheng:
"Hello uncle, can you let us in?"
Lin Duanzheng looked at Mo Yan for a few seconds, then nodded and stepped aside to let Mo Yan and Fangfang enter the apartment.
Mo Yan walked into the familiar house, looked around, and saw that Lin Yao's bedroom door was closed, as if it was locked from the outside.
She couldn't help but feel speechless. What era was this? How could someone lock their child in a room? Besides, Lin Yao was an adult, not a child anymore.
I've heard Lin Yao say before that her father was extremely old-fashioned and strict. Mo Yan also speculated that Lin Yao's people-pleasing personality was inseparable from the overly strict education she received from her father since childhood.
Now it seems that Mo Yan still underestimated Lin Duanzheng's old-fashioned and strict nature.
This is simply old-fashioned!
Mo Yan complained in his heart, but still with a smile on his face, he said to Lin Duanzheng:
"Uncle, can I meet Lin Yao?"
Lin Duanzheng nodded, took out the key and opened the bedroom door. Mo Yan gestured to Fangfang to wait outside, and she went in alone.
The curtains in the bedroom were drawn and the lights were off, so the light was a little dim. Mo Yan saw a slender figure sitting on the bed with her knees hugged, her shoulders trembling slightly.
Lin Yao is crying.
Hearing someone coming in, Lin Yao raised her head, a look of surprise on her tearful face, and quickly stood up and ran towards Mo Yan:
"Sister Yan!"
She hugged Mo Yan and said in a crying voice:
"What should I do? What should I do?"
Mo Yan quickly hugged Lin Yao and patted her back gently.
"Don't cry, it's okay. Tell Sister Yan in detail what happened. Why did your uncle suddenly come to Kyoto?"
Mo Yan hadn't seen Lin Yao so panicked for a long time. She felt a little distressed. While comforting the crying Lin Yao, she asked softly.
The two sat on the bed. Lin Yao cried for a while, and when she calmed down a little, she told the whole story.
"Uncle got so angry because he knew you were in a relationship that he came all the way to Kyoto to take you back?"
Mo Yan opened his eyes wide, feeling a little confused.
"Does your uncle intend to prevent you from falling in love for the rest of your life?"
Lin Yao wiped the tears from her face with a tissue in her hand. Her peach blossom eyes were slightly red and swollen. She timidly glanced out the door and then explained in a low voice:
"My dad always thought that people in the entertainment industry were bad people. He told me not to date anyone in the entertainment industry."
Mo Yan spread her hands and said, "But Fang Xiaole works at a TV station, so he's not considered part of the entertainment industry. Besides, not all people in the entertainment industry are bad. This doesn't make any sense."
Lin Yao shook her head. "My dad doesn't care about these things. In his opinion, Fang Xiaole is someone I met at work, and he's also someone in the entertainment industry, a bad person."
"Uncle is indeed like this." Mo Yan was silent for a moment and nodded helplessly.
After just two contacts, she had already gained some understanding of Lin Duanzheng's overly old-fashioned character, who clung to outdated ideas.
"My dad also said that he had already chosen a suitable partner for me back home, who was his student. After he brought me home, he would arrange for us to meet and, if the relationship was right, he would let us get married."
As Lin Yao spoke, tears began to flow again.
Mo Yan said in disbelief, "What era is this? Are arranged marriages still necessary?"
"Sister Yan, you don't know." Lin Yao said with tears in her eyes:
"My father always said that the Lin family is a family of scholars, and the person I will marry must be a well-educated scholar.
He often told me that marrying my mother was his biggest mistake. My mother was a businesswoman and couldn't settle down. We had different values.
In the end, we had to separate, so he was even more determined that he must choose my future marriage partner to prevent me from making the same mistake as he did.
Mo Yan frowned. "The deep-rooted traditional values of our family, as well as my own failed marriage, have made your father even more conservative, insisting on interfering in your love and marriage..."
She sighed: "Lin Yao, it can be seen that your uncle actually cares about you very much, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed all the way to Kyoto when he heard that you were in a relationship. However, he showed his concern for you in the wrong way. Why didn't you explain it to him clearly?"
"I, I just said that there are good people in the entertainment industry, such as you and Fangfang, Brother Hong and Sister Yue, but..."
Lin Yao looked sad, as if she was remembering the argument with her father just now. Her body began to tremble slightly again:
"But my dad didn't believe me. He said I had turned bad and that he had to take me home. He also forbade me from meeting Fang Xiaole again."
"This is too feudal and old-fashioned!" Mo Yan stood up suddenly: "I'll go talk to my uncle."
Five minutes later.
"Get out! You are the ones who led my daughter astray. Get out!"
"Uncle, listen to me..."
Bang!
Mo Yan and Fang Fang were kicked out by Lin Duanzheng.
The apartment door slammed shut. Mo Yan went forward and knocked on the door, but the other party ignored them.
Now, even the smart and capable Mo Yan was at a loss.
"Sister Yan, what should we do now?"
Fangfang didn't expect that even Sister Yan couldn't do it, and she was immediately at a loss.
Mo Yan lowered his head in thought for a long time, then slowly raised his head: "The person who tied the bell must untie it. Let's call Fang Xiaole."
