"What? You're already married?" Wu Yuxiang asked incredulously.
Lin Yu smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm married, and my wife and I have a very good relationship!"
Lin Yu never shied away from this matter, and he told Lan Ling about it from the beginning, but he didn't expect Lan Ling to not tell her family.
"Mom, Brother Lin told me about his marriage before, and there was nothing between us!" Lan Ling said weakly.
"Shut up!"
Wu Yuxiang was furious. She pointed at Lin Yu and shouted, "You're already married, yet you still managed to seduce my daughter! I finally managed to bring Zhou Liang back, and you still sabotaged it! What exactly do you mean by this?!"
The other members of the Lan family also looked somewhat embarrassed and confused.
"Mom, how can you blame Lin Ge? It's my own fault for not liking Zhou Liang. Don't blame others!" Lan Ling said with a dissatisfied expression.
"Bullshit! This is your life's most important matter, how can I not care?" Wu Yuxiang said irritably, "Do you know what kind of family Zhou Liang comes from? I finally found you a suitable match, and I was counting on you to take care of me in my old age. But look at you, you actually took a fancy to a married man. Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"Mom, I've already told you, I didn't..." Lan Ling was on the verge of tears. This mother had always been like this since she was a child, she was simply unreasonable.
"Auntie, you don't need to worry about Lanling's marriage. I've already made arrangements for her!"
At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly spoke, drawing everyone's attention.
Wu Yuxiang frowned and said, "You have the nerve to say that? You wouldn't be thinking of making my daughter your mistress, would you? Let me tell you, don't even think about it! If you dare to lay a finger on my daughter, believe me, I'll fight you to the death!"
"Auntie, what are you thinking!" Lin Yu looked speechless. Dealing with such an unreasonable old woman was really a headache!
He sighed and said, "Actually, it's like this. I have a brother who's still single. He and Lan Ling are a perfect match, both handsome and beautiful!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was simultaneously taken aback.
Lan Ling seemed to realize something as well, and looked at Lin Yu with trembling hands.
Wu Yuxiang's attitude immediately changed, and she put on a smiling face, "Oh, I see. Why didn't you say so earlier? Since he's your brother, his family must be well-off, right?"
She only wants her daughter to marry into a wealthy family; who it is doesn't matter, as long as she can benefit from it.
Lin Yu smiled slightly, "My friend is none other than the son of the Marquis of Guannei. Oh, by the way, Lord Huang has passed away, and my brother will soon be the next Marquis of Guannei!"
"Marquis of Guannei?"
Lan Shanyue was visibly moved. "Dr. Lin, you're not talking about Young Master Huang, are you?"
Wow!
The entire Lan family was in an uproar!
Need I say more about the Huang family's status?
Now that the four great families have been wiped out, the young marquis has been exonerated and will surely rebuild the marquis's mansion.
Putting aside the Huang family's assets, the hereditary title alone is enough to inspire awe!
When Lan Shanyue was young, he had thought about getting engaged to Huang Anxiong, but because of his lowly status, he never dared to bring it up.
And now that Lin Yu is actually going to be the matchmaker, that's absolutely wonderful news!
"Dr. Lin, is this true? Can you really help our Lan family arrange this marriage?" Lan Shanyue couldn't help but ask excitedly.
Lin Yu smiled and nodded, "Yes, I know my brother. He likes Lan Ling, and Lan Ling is a nice girl. They will definitely be happy together!"
"Oh my, thank you so much, Dr. Lin! Dr. Lin, you are such a kind person, such a kind person!" Wu Yuxiang was so excited that she was practically kneeling down and kowtowing to Lin Yu.
The Marquis's mansion is definitely stronger than the Zhou family, by many times.
After all, the Marquis's mansion represents the official class, which even merchant families cannot easily surpass!
There's a saying that's popular these days: "Those who drive Mercedes are all giving gifts to those who ride in Audis."
Especially in the north, particularly in the area within the Great Wall, where bureaucratic capitalism is prevalent, what mothers-in-law like most is someone who drives a Volkswagen Magotan, wears a jacket, and always has two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes in the trunk.
Wu Yuxiang was extremely satisfied and quickly gave her daughter a push, "Lanling, Dr. Lin is your great matchmaker, you must thank him properly!"
Snap!
Lan Ling slammed her hand on the table.
Everyone was stunned.
At this moment, Lan Ling's red lips were tightly pursed, and her delicate body trembled slightly. She seemed very excited.
"Daughter, what's wrong with you?" Wu Yuxiang asked anxiously.
Lan Ling, her eyes red, looked at Lin Yu and said, "Brother Lin, do you despise me that much? I didn't ask you to like me, so why are you pushing me to someone else? Am I, Lan Ling, so worthless?"
As Lan Ling finished speaking, her voice suddenly choked with emotion.
Everyone was even more confused, wondering what was wrong with Lan Ling.
At this moment, perhaps only Ningxi, an outsider, can truly empathize with her.
What woman could resist a man like Lin Yu?
Didn't she harbor a sliver of fantasy in her heart?
Lan Ling had met Lin Shaoshuai earlier than I had, and she was probably already head over heels for him.
However, the person she longs for actually pushes her away. No wonder she's devastated! She's lost all her self-respect!
"Um, Lan Ling, you..." Lin Yu looked a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Sizzle!
Lan Ling pulled out a chair, covered her eyes with her sleeve, and ran out, sobbing.
"Hey, Lanling!"
Lin Yu immediately became anxious. At this moment, Ning Xi quickly stood up, "Sect Leader Lin, don't worry, I'll go check on her!"
Lin Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded helplessly, "Okay, then I'll trouble you!"
Ningxi nodded and quickly chased after her.
When Ningxi came outside, she saw Lanling sitting on the stone steps by the door, sobbing. Her fists were clenched tightly, and she looked aggrieved.
Ningxi shook her head, smoothed her skirt, and sat down next to her.
Lan Ling slowly looked over. "Miss Ning, what brings you here?"
Ningxi sighed, "We're both in the same boat, I just wanted to comfort you!"
"Huh? What do you mean? Could it be that you also..." Lan Ling seemed to realize something.
Ning Xi chuckled softly, a hint of self-deprecation in her voice, "Yes! I'm just like you, with someone I long for day and night! But then again, life has its order of appearance, its first come, first served!"
Then she smiled and said, "Fortunately, I am a non-marriage advocate, so it's not really a problem for me. As long as I can see the person I like and have an excuse to be by their side, I'm satisfied. What do you think?"
