"I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
Ignoring the surprised looks from those around him, Wang Qian raised his voice and said loudly, "I welcome all other guests, but you're the only one I don't want to see in my house!"
"Wang Qian, I'm your wife's cousin, how could you...?"
"Don't make a big deal out of nothing!"
Before Lin Jingliang could finish speaking, Wang Qian interrupted, "You are my wife's cousin, that's true, but if you have ill intentions, I won't acknowledge you as my wife!"
"Wang Qian, do you know what you're saying?"
Lin Jingliang, though outwardly fierce, said weakly, "If I had ill intentions, why would I have come all this way to attend your family's full-moon celebration?"
"Stop trying to act like a scoundrel!"
Wang Qian sneered, "Everyone knows your purpose perfectly well. We're just trying to avoid a confrontation later, but..."
At this point, he changed the subject, "You've deliberately come to my house to cause trouble, so I don't need to give you any face."
"Wang Qian, you..."
"roll!"
Wang Qian suddenly shouted, "I've said what I needed to say. If you don't get out of here, I'm really going to call the police!"
Lin Jingliang's face turned pale and then he glared at him.
At that moment, he felt extremely frustrated.
In his imagination, if he used this persistent and manipulative method to stir things up, the only one who should be frustrated would be Wang Qian.
result,
Wang Qian may have enjoyed his rant, but he himself was the one who felt aggrieved.
What's going on?
"Xiao Chao, are you mute?"
Left with no other option, Lin Jingliang turned his attention to Lin Chao, saying, "I came here with your family for a meal, and your brother-in-law treated me like this. Aren't you going to stand up for me and say a word of justice?"
Lin Chao's lips twitched.
The people who came with him were indeed there because of his family's influence, including Lin Jingliang.
Now that this has happened, he should step forward and smooth things over.
only,
Even though he knew Lin Jingliang was using this as an excuse to deliberately cause trouble, he was still angry.
"Xiao Chao, you don't even want me, your cousin, anymore, do you?"
Lin Chao remained silent, but Lin Jingliang continued to add fuel to the fire, "We are all members of the Lin family. If we can't even unite among ourselves, who can we expect to help you when you need it in the future?"
Lin Chao's expression changed slightly.
The Lin family has always been united; whenever they are bullied by outsiders, they will stand together against them.
There was a similar case before. Their Lin family had a daughter who got married, but her husband bullied her family.
After discussing it, the Lin family decided that each family would send a male member to their son-in-law's house, beat them up, and then forcibly bring their married daughter back, thus severing all ties with that family.
Therefore, in their rural areas, a married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl.
If you can't maintain a good relationship with your wife's family, either disown them or get a divorce.
Last time, Lin Jingliang brought up his family, which made him hesitate about whether to trick his brother-in-law Wang Qian in order to curry favor with Lin Jingliang.
Now, with Lin Jingliang bringing up the family name again in front of everyone, he's really in a difficult position.
He should step forward and smooth things over, and apologize to his brother-in-law Wang Qian and sister Lin Xiaoyu.
If he doesn't stand up and Lin Jingliang continues to stir up trouble, he might become a target of everyone in the family in the future.
"Xiao Chao, you've done what you were supposed to do. The rest is none of your business!"
Just as Lin Chao was in a dilemma, Wang Qian spoke up, "Whatever I said or did today is my own business. You don't need to care, and don't be coerced by anyone."
Lin Chao's body trembled.
His brother-in-law's words were clearly an attempt to push him away, to prevent him from being forced into this matter.
The more he understood Wang Qian's good intentions, the more ashamed he felt.
The next moment, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Brother Jingliang, if you still consider me a brother, then give me some face and stop making trouble here."
Then, he changed the subject, saying, "If you insist on making a scene, you're just deliberately trying to put me in a difficult position."
"If you don't even give me face as your brother, don't blame me for being ruthless as your brother."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingliang became even more furious.
"Well, Lin Chao, you've grown up, you've got wings, and now you're siding with outsiders, huh?"
Lin Jingliang immediately seized on the opportunity, "Are you sure you don't want me, your own family member, and are determined to help outsiders?"
"I……"
Lin Chao fell silent again.
Lin Jingliang wanted this effect. He scanned everyone around him and said loudly, "Everyone, please be the judge. I came here out of kindness to drink and even brought money as a gift, and he actually told me to get lost."
"With such a lack of manners, are we supposed to keep staying here and be treated coldly?"
Upon hearing this, some people who were unaware of the situation indeed showed indignant expressions on their faces.
Of course, this only applies to a small number of people.
Most people were still quite rational and could see that Lin Jingliang was using this as an opportunity to cause trouble.
The reason they didn't stand up for Wang Qian was simply because they didn't want to offend anyone.
In rural areas, where you see each other all the time, almost no one wants to meddle unless it concerns their own interests or is unrelated to their loved ones.
"Lin Jingliang, I was thinking that since you're my wife's cousin, I wouldn't want to break ties with you. But since you insist on making a fool of yourself, I don't need to show you any mercy!"
Wang Qian took a deep breath and pulled Lin Chao over. "Xiao Chao, you probably know better than I do what kind of person Lin Jingliang is!"
Lin Chao nodded in deep agreement.
But considering his current situation, his face was still full of embarrassment.
"Xiao Chao, hesitation will only lead to trouble!"
Wang Qian timely reminded him: "Only someone who will consider your feelings is worth your effort; otherwise, your tolerance will only become the other party's leverage to take advantage of you!"
Lin Chao's body trembled.
His previously hesitant expression instantly became resolute.
Wang Qian is right. People who truly care about him will naturally consider things from his perspective without him having to give them earnest advice.
Only someone with malicious intent would deliberately make things difficult for him in such a situation, putting him in a dilemma.
Such a person is not worth making any further concessions to.
Having figured this out, the last trace of reluctance and worry in his heart finally vanished.
"Lin Jingliang, stop distorting the truth!"
He pointed at Lin Jingliang, then glanced at the unsuspecting people around him, and said loudly, "Does everyone want to know why Lin Jingliang is causing trouble here?"
"Lin Chao, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Lin Jingliang panicked instantly.
The reason he was so confident was that even if Lin Chao didn't stand on his side, he wouldn't break ties with him.
I never expected this.
Wang Qian's single sentence was enough to make Lin Chao make up his mind.
If Lin Chao really reveals the inside story, wouldn't he lose all face here today?
