Chapter 94: Make a Bet
"Lin Deyu, you still have the nerve to mention my dad?!"
When Sanxiangu heard that Lin Deyu dared to mention my father so brazenly, she was so angry that her whole body trembled.
Seeing this, Lin Zhixian took over the microphone and asked, "Are you afraid that I will lose face or are you afraid that I will steal Lin Zhiya's limelight and take away her championship?"
Lin Deyu snorted coldly: "Would I be afraid that you would beat Aya? What a joke!"
Lin Zhixian has been as dumb as a pig since he was young, but Lin Zhiya has been smart and clever since he was young. He can learn by analogy. Under his careful teaching over the years, he has made great achievements. Lin Zhixian wants to win over Lin Zhiya, but that is just the talk of an idiot.
"Then let's make a bet. I will definitely beat Lin Zhiya, and I will definitely take back everything that belongs to my Lin family!" Lin Zhixian said.
Lin Deyu said disdainfully: "Okay, then I'll see what you can do."
After saying this, Lin Deyu hung up the phone.
"Ah'xian, don't listen to what Lin Deyu says. You are the best in your mother's heart. That Lin Zhiya is not even as good as your fingernails." Sanxiangu was afraid that Lin Zhixian would be hurt by Lin Deyu's words, so she said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, mom. No matter what he says, it can't hurt me." Lin Zhixian hugged Sanxiangu: "Because he has never been a father to me, but a stranger."
San Xiangu couldn't hold back her tears and said, "It's all my fault. Your grandfather warned me that Lin Deyu was not my ideal man, let alone a good son-in-law for the Lin family. I didn't listen and insisted on marrying him. As a result, after your grandfather left, he refused to even put in the effort to be with her. He didn't come home for three days. Then I found out that he had been hooking up with Cheng Jiehua for a long time, and he also had Lin Zhiya. That Lin Zhiya is only a few months younger than you——"
"I am so blind."
"Life is so long, there's no guarantee that you won't meet a scumbag. Mom, don't worry about it. You still have me." Lin Zhixian turned around in front of the Three Fairies: "Look, I'm such a pretty girl and such a smart girl. Others can't even ask for me. Aren't you very lucky?"
"Yes, yes, the city walls are not as shameless as you. You are so self-boasting." The Three Fairies burst into laughter.
But she knew in her heart that this was not the case. Half a year ago, not only had her marriage with Lin Deyu dealt her a heavy blow, but her stupid and stubborn daughter had also exhausted her.
It is also because her daughter is really stupid. She is afraid that she will not wait until the day when her daughter becomes outstanding, so she works hard to make money and save money. Otherwise, the money she earns would have been enough to buy a shop. Why not buy it? It is because she wants to buy it. Save more money so that she can help her daughter more when she gets married and has children.
If her daughter can't find that glimmer of hope, she will have to live a life of poverty. How can she, as a mother, watch her daughter suffer?
Even if we cannot change her miserable fate, we still want her to raise the child well.
Parents always think long-term for their children.
Now that Lin Zhixian has this glimmer of hope, she has become smart, clever, and filial. Sometimes she even doubts whether this is her own daughter.
But she didn't allow herself to think that way.
Such a smart, excellent and hardworking girl is her daughter, the hope of their Lin family.
"Ah'xian, you must win." The Three Fairies suddenly grabbed Lin Zhixian's hand and said seriously.
"Don't worry, Mom, I will definitely win." Lin Zhixian said.
"I don't know how the case is going. I'll call Inspector Chen." Lin Zhixian thought of what Lin Deyu had said before. Inspector Chen and his men must have gone to question Cheng Jiehua, and Lin Deyu happened to know about it, so he called him.
I'm afraid their investigation won't make very good progress.
As expected, Inspector Chen and his team did not catch the suspect, and Cheng Jiehua did not get any clues either. The case is now at a stalemate.
"I guess there's nothing we can do about Cheng Jiehua and her daughter." Lin Zhixian said to Sanxiangu.
"It's really a bargain for them." The Three Fairies gritted her teeth.
"But it's not in vain." Lin Zhixian said: "This matter has become so chaotic, and they were dragged into it. Whether for Lin Zhiya or Lin Deyu's face, Cheng Jiehua will not dare to attack me again. We don't have to worry about the future troubles."
Cheng Jiehua was indeed furious: "I asked him to find a way to stop Lin Zhixian from participating in the competition. I didn't ask him to kill anyone, let alone throw bricks from the roof of the TV station to harm people. He really killed me."
"What should we do now? Will the police catch him? Will I be implicated?" Lin Zhiya was worried. "If he is caught and implicated, then everyone will know that I am afraid of Lin Zhixian and that I am so afraid that I would hire someone to kill me. Then I will lose all my reputation. I won't be able to stay in Hong Kong's Xuanmen circle anymore."
"Don't worry." Cheng Jiehua comforted her: "That person will not be caught, and it will not be implicated in you."
Lin Zhiya closed her eyes and said after a while, "Forget it, Mom. Don't make trouble. Just let me compete with Lin Zhixian openly. I don't believe I can't beat her!"
"Okay." Cheng Jiehua also knew that she had been noticed by the police and must not make any more moves, so she agreed.
But she gritted her teeth secretly. It would be fine if Lin Zhixian didn't snatch the championship from her, Aya. But if she dared to snatch the championship from Aya, she would definitely kill her.
Soon, the day of the Xuanmen Rookie Competition officially arrived.
Lin Zhixian got up early in the morning, dressed himself up beautifully, and took his identity documents and necessary magical instruments with him before going out. Then he went downstairs with the Three Fairies.
"Ah Xian, are you going to participate in the competition today?" Aunt Zhao asked with concern when she saw her.
"Yeah." Lin Zhixian said with a smile.
"Come on. You will definitely succeed." said Aunt Zhao.
Neighbors also cheered Lin Zhixian up.
"Thank you, everyone." Lin Zhixian thanked everyone and took a taxi to the competition venue with Sanxiangu.
This time the competition will no longer be held on television.
I heard that there are eight or nine thousand people who registered for the competition this time, and after half of them were selected, there are still four or five thousand left. It is different from the previous time when they entered in batches. The TV station's studio can still be operated. Today, everyone is competing together, and the TV station's studio cannot cram four or five thousand people in at once.
Besides, since Xuanmen is organizing this rookie competition, it naturally wants to expand its influence and promote its own people. Of course, the more people come to watch, the better, so the official competition will be held at the Wong Tai Sin Temple.
Lin Zhixian and Sanxiangu were afraid of being late due to traffic jams, so they set out three hours in advance. In the end, they were still stuck in traffic for more than an hour before they finally squeezed in.
Lin Zhixian went to report to the staff, got his name tag, and then entered to wait. Sanxiangu went to the spectator seats to find a seat.
"Ms. Lin." After a while, Lin Zhixian heard someone calling her.
