Chapter 395 I'll Fight for You Even at the Risk of It (8)
Li Qingning stopped talking.
She has no say in money matters; it all depends on Lin Zhenhua's opinion.
Zhou Ruilian sneered at Lin Zhenhua and said, "Then tell me, how much money do you plan to pay to buy your son's marriage?"
That's too harsh.
Lin Zhenhua sighed after hearing this: "You are a celebrity after all, so could you please not be so harsh in your words? What do you mean by buying my son's marriage?"
Xiao Zhou is acting like this. If she's not after money, what's she after? Does she really think kids these days are stupid? What love? Bullshit? She's just trying to blackmail me.
I'm doing you a favor by not suing her. If you know where she is, please let her out immediately. If she continues to make trouble, the company's market value will shrink, and I'll have no choice but to deal with her."
Wow, this is a lot of threats and intimidation.
Zhou Ruilian was shaking with laughter, and could barely hold her cup. "Lin Zhenhua, you're quite a character. You didn't expect this to happen!"
"Don't talk like that. I don't like it."
"Whether you like it or not, I'm going to tell you. Who do you think you are?" Zhou Ruilian completely gave up on playing along. She pointed at him and said coldly, "Do you think everyone in this world is like you, only interested in money? I'm telling you, don't say I didn't know. Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. You're dreaming of buying off my daughter-in-law with money."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't make a big deal out of it. What do you mean I only care about money? Have I ever treated you unfairly over the years?"
"Don't you know whether you've done anything wrong or not? Lin Zhenhua, you're a bastard—"
After hearing this curse, Lin Zhenhua remained silent.
He knew he was in the wrong and started to speak nicely.
"One million, that's my bottom line. I know you must know where she is, tell her to come find me."
Zhou Ruilian didn't say anything, so he added, "I haven't had anyone disturb Xiao Zhou's house in the county town. I guess it hasn't been cleaned for a while. If not, let Qing Ning go..."
"Lin Zhenhua——"
"you say……"
"How much is Liang Qiuye's investment in the Lin Group worth?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Tell me, I want to know."
"50 million."
"Fifty million?" Zhou Ruilian repeated, then looked at Li Qingning with a smile. "Did you hear that? Fifty million. Go back and prepare the money. I'll have Tian Xin wait here for you at this time tomorrow. Once you get the money, tell her to get out."
Hehehe…hehehe…
Li Qingning thought she had misheard and quickly looked at Lin Zhenhua, "Old Lin, what do you mean? Do you want to... prepare... 50 million for that girl?"
"fart--"
Lin Zhenhua was so angry that he flipped over the teacup in front of him. The freshly brewed tea in the cup was still scalding hot, and the overturning splashed directly onto Li Qingning in front of him.
Li Qingning was startled, then jumped up because of the heat, covering her arm and screaming.
Zhou Ruilian completely lost her patience.
"Get out and stop bothering my son and my daughter-in-law."
Lin Zhenhua didn't move, and was so angry that he wanted to lose his temper.
Seeing that Li Qingning's arm was burned red, he still stood up.
But he hesitated, "Rui Lian, can we talk it out? We can't offend the Liang family right now. Give him this letter of apology, and everything will be over. My son, I will..."
"Pa——" Before he could finish his words, a slap hit him in the face.
Zhou Ruilian looked at the two of them, one covering his face and the other covering his arm, without giving them any face: "Get out, don't let me see you again."
"Rui Lian..."
"Get out—"
Li Qingning covered her arm and walked away angrily, but Lin Zhenhua still stood there looking at Zhou Ruilian.
"I know what you're thinking. I'm sorry for you."
Lin Zhenhua turned and walked over to her, his eyes suddenly reddening. For some reason, he suddenly reached out and hugged Zhou Ruilian, and as she struggled, he said something that instantly made her burst into tears.
"You know I've always loved you. If you want, I can divorce you right away, and we can get back together and take good care of Xiao Zhou."
Zhou Ruilian didn't respond to this, but she didn't say anything else either.
Li Qingning was standing at the door with her fingernails digging into her flesh.
That afternoon, a red car came speeding and stopped downstairs of Lin Zhou's house.
A woman wearing a windbreaker and sunglasses got out of the car, followed by two burly men with fierce looks.
The three of them went upstairs and knocked on Lin Zhou's door.
Tian Xin was reading the letter Lin Zhou wrote to her. When she heard a knock on the door, she thought it was Zhou Ruilian, so she went to open the door without even looking.
The man didn't ask any questions. After seeing her face, he slapped her directly: "You are really here? You are hiding so well!"
Tian Xin was hit for no apparent reason and instinctively wanted to fight back, but after seeing who was hitting her, she immediately calmed down.
Zhang Shuai and Li Jing were both called away by phone from home half an hour ago, saying there was an emergency.
At this moment, looking at Li Qingning with an angry face in front of her, she immediately understood what was going on.
Without much hesitation, she immediately ordered them to leave: "You are not welcome here, please leave."
Li Qingning laughed when she heard this: "What a joke! You think this is your home? Get it straight, this is my husband's property. Who do you think you are? You should get out!"
She looked completely different from the ones Tian Xin had seen before.
Tian Xin knew that arguing at this time would only lead to a more miserable death, so she simply smiled and invited the person in.
"Who did I think it was? Turns out it was my stepmother?" She naturally walked back to the coffee table, put the letter away, and then asked Li Qingning and the two men to sit down.
Of course, the two men didn't dare to sit down, so they went straight to the door and stood on the left and right as door gods.
Tian Xin no longer insisted and went to get tea for her "stepmother".
Seeing that she was timid and cowardly, Li Qingning suddenly became arrogant.
She didn't take the tea that Tian Xin handed her, but stood up and walked around to tour the newly decorated room.
This place was completely different from before. Lin Zhou liked quietness and cleanliness. The furnishings in the room were simple and uniform, even a little monotonous.
But now it’s different. Big red “囍” characters are pasted on all the cold and gray furnishings, the soft furnishings, curtains and sofas have been changed to warm tones, and even a piano has been moved in near the balcony.
Lin Zhou's usual bedroom remained unchanged, but in the second bedroom next to it, wedding photos and wedding ornaments were hung.
Not only that, the kitchen, bathroom, and guest rooms have all been renovated to varying degrees.
Obviously, just as the newspaper said, Tian Xin has become the hostess here.
"You little bitch, you're really good at it. It's only been a few days and you've already made this place a mess. Who gave you the courage to touch anything here?" Li Qingning was furious and walked over to hit her again.
This time she didn't give in and just raised her hand to block it.
The two "door gods" at the door wanted to come over when they saw this, but she stopped them with a gesture: "Two big brothers, stepmother is just joking with me. If you take it seriously, it will end badly."
When the "door god" heard this, he gave up.
Before coming, Li Qingning specifically told me to avoid taking action if possible, and if I really had to, I had to wait for her instructions.
At the moment, Li Qingning had her back to them and they couldn't see her expression.
In fact, Li Qingning was irritated to death by Tian Xin constantly calling her "stepmother".
"Stepmother, stepmother", it sounds like an insult.
But Tian Xin stopped her hand and immediately gave her a smile: "Don't be angry, these are Aunt Zhou's things. If you get angry and break one of them, we will both be embarrassed, right?"
Li Qingning was even more angry now - he dared to use Zhou Ruilian to pressure her, it was outrageous.
She raised her hand and threw the pair of decorative dolls that Zhou Ruilian had just bought on the coffee table to the ground.
The doll was made of white porcelain and it bloomed when it fell.
Tian Xin frowned and two words flashed through her mind: It's over.
Half an hour later, Zhou Ruilian and Lin Zhenhua went upstairs one after another in anger.
