Chapter 8: A dumb person eats coptis root
However, I happened to see a curious person walking into the garden downstairs.
All the servants of the Huo family wore the same uniform, but this person did not.
And he acted in a sneaky way, obviously, he was a thief.
Great, he actually dared to steal into the Huo family. She was just feeling angry, and now he had delivered it to her door.
Lin Yilan casually grabbed a sofa cover that was hanging on the balcony, climbed out, and landed behind the man in no time.
Before the man could react after hearing the noise, Lin Yilan had already put the sofa cover on him and started beating him up.
Her fists were so heavy and fierce that they made Lin's father howl in pain.
"Stop, stop! I am a relative of your Huo family! Stop hitting me, stop hitting me." Father Lin wailed.
Lin Yilan didn't care whether he was related to her or not, and beat him up again.
The noise also alarmed the security guard and the housekeeper.
Lin Yilan finally stopped and said, "I was just standing on the balcony enjoying the breeze when I saw someone sneaking in. He must be a thief. I jumped down and caught him. Let's call the police right away."
"No, don't call the police. I really am a relative of the Huo family. My surname is Lin, Lin Dayuan." Lin's father said weakly.
Lin Dayuan? Does that name sound familiar?
Oh, isn’t this my biased stepfather, ah, bah, my biological father?
Lin Yilan was startled and quickly lifted the sofa cover, only to see that the person lying curled up on the ground was Lin Dayuan with a bruised face and nose.
"Dad? What were you doing sneaking into the Huo family?" Although Lin Yilan hadn't been back for eighteen years, Lin Dayuan would still go up the mountain every three to five years to pretend to visit her in order to cling to the Huo family. So she recognized her father at a glance.
When Father Lin saw Lin Yilan, he realized that she was the one who hit him.
If it were any other time, he would have slapped him, but now he was in the Huo family and he had to maintain his image as a kind father.
However, Father Lin, his face twisted with pain, didn't dare to mention bringing Lin Yilan back to the Lin family. He could only swallow his anger and said through gritted teeth, "I was worried about you. I heard you were back, but you didn't come home. I just got back from a business trip and rushed over to see you!"
Lin Yilan didn't believe his nonsense.
"I went back. My grandma and stepmother didn't welcome me, so I moved to the Huo family. You see me now, I'm in good shape and healthy. You go back and apply some medicine first." Lin Yilan said bluntly.
Father Lin: "..." He really didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Mrs. Huo in this state, so he had to pretend to teach Lin Yilan a lesson and then limped away.
Lin Yilan saw Lin's father off and asked the security guard to close the door before returning upstairs. She felt sleepy after all the effort, so she took a shower and had a good sleep.
However, when Lin's father returned home, Sun Xiafang came to meet him. Seeing how badly he had been beaten, she screamed, "Old Lin, why are you like this? Where's that little bitch? Why didn't you bring her back?"
Father Lin was furious and immediately slapped Sun Xiafang in the face, gritting his teeth and saying, "It's all your fault. If you want someone, go get them yourself."
…
The next day. Lin Yilan got up and had breakfast with the Huo family. Huo Juncheng was going to work, and she also had to go to work.
Before going down the mountain, she received an invitation from Haicheng University to serve as a martial arts instructor in the performing arts class of Haicheng University, and some film crews also jointly invited her.
She also didn't want to marry into the Huo family and waste the eighteen years of martial arts training she had practiced, so she agreed.
After explaining things clearly to Mrs. Huo, she took Huo Juncheng's car to Ocean University.
"Um, I'm sorry about that." After holding it in for a long time, Lin Yilan finally snorted.
Huo Juncheng snorted proudly. Some small wounds on his face were still aching. He had not forgotten what happened last night.
Lin Yilan felt even more ashamed, so she had no choice but to say, "Next time you kiss me, I promise not to hit you."
Huo Juncheng then cast his gaze on her face calmly: "Do you promise?"
"I promise!" Lin Yilan raised three fingers.
"Then I will forgive you for now." Huo Juncheng finally relaxed.
"Thank you, fiancé, you are so generous." Lin Yilan praised generously.
The two shook hands and made peace, then parted ways at the gate of Ocean University.
Lin Yilan walked in happily carrying her bag.
However, at the door, he was stopped viciously by a woman with heavy makeup.
"Lin Yilan, what are you doing here? The school is not open to the public today. If you want to visit, come back another day! Don't embarrass yourself!" The person who spoke was Lin Pinyan, a junior student at Ocean University.
However, Lin Yilan stared at her for a long time, still not recognizing her, so she smiled harmlessly and asked, "Miss, do we know each other?"
Lin Pinyan was so angry that her makeup almost fell off her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Lin Yilan, stop pretending. You beat me up yesterday, and now you say you don't know me?"
Lin Yilan suddenly realized: "Oh, so you are Lin Pinyan! You changed to a heavier makeup today, who can recognize you?"
Lin Pinyan was almost furious. Why did she change into heavy makeup? It was because she had beaten herself up. Besides, today was the first day of the new action class teacher's class, and she couldn't skip class.
"Lin Yilan! I said. The school is not open to the public today. Get out of here right now." Lin Pinyan glared at her and said bluntly.
"But I'm an insider." Lin Yilan took out a pass slowly.
Lin Pinyan's face froze for a moment, then she reacted and sneered, "So the Huo family even got you a student registration at Ocean University? How impressive! What can you possibly learn from studying at Ocean University when you haven't even graduated from elementary school? If you just want a diploma to show off, why bother coming here and embarrassing yourself? Surely the Huo family can't get you a diploma? Or perhaps they despise your lack of education and want you to come here and soak up some of the culture so you don't end up losing out later?"
Lin Yilan was too lazy to talk to her. She looked at the watch on her wrist and said, "I have to go to class. I don't have time to chat with you. Besides, I advise you not to mess with me unless you want to put on even heavier makeup tomorrow."
Lin Pinyan was so angry that she almost smoked. Looking at Lin Yilan walking away, she stomped her feet fiercely: Lin Yilan, since you are studying at Ocean University, wait for me to find out which class you are in... Humph!
However, Lin Pinyan didn't need to check! She soon saw Lin Yilan again! In her action class!
"Hello, students. I am the new action instructor Lin Yilan. From today on, I will be in charge of your action classes." Standing on the podium, Lin Yilan glanced at the whole class lightly and said in a clear voice.
