Chapter 248 Your Wife
Even though he had confirmed her identity, Lin Zheng still spoke in a questioning tone. This was because Qi Xu's appearance was too childish to be believable.
"Yes!" Qi Xu admitted frankly.
"It's our first meeting. I didn't know you were coming. I apologize for not welcoming you."
Lin Zheng forced a smile, not knowing what to say in response.
"We're family, so it's okay. It was our first meeting, and I was a little rushed. I forgot to prepare a gift for you. I'll make it up to you next time."
Qi Xu smiled and said nothing more. He instructed the assistant at the door.
"Xiao Ye, serve Mr. Lin a cup of tea."
She deliberately emphasized one cup. The assistant understood and really only brought over one cup of tea.
Wu Shuhua and Lin Ling's faces fell on the spot.
Cough cough cough!
Wu Shuhua, who was left aside, pretended to cough and tried to stir up trouble with her throat clogged with phlegm.
"This Ayou's wife doesn't even know how to greet her elders when she sees them. How rude!"
An ugly old girl wanted to act like a mother-in-law, but Qi Xu would not tolerate her.
"Xiao Ye, I'm meeting a guest. Why did you let the cleaning lady in?"
Assistant Xiao Ye hurried in to chase them away. "Auntie, the CEO's office is cleaned by a special person. Please get out!"
Wu Shuhua's face turned green with anger when she was called a cleaning lady.
She didn't dare to criticize Qi Xu, so she could only get angry at her assistant.
"Are you blind? I'm a distinguished guest, how could it be the cleaning lady?"
"You are such a tactless person! You only poured one cup of tea. Do you think we are dead?"
Qi Xu's face was full of displeasure and his tone was very unpleasant.
"Where did you come from, old lady? Who let you in? Please get out of here, or I'll call security."
Lin Zheng hurriedly explained, "Xiao Qi, I brought them here."
Qi Xu pretended not to know and complained dissatisfiedly.
"Uncle Lin, the friend you brought here is so rude. If you're thirsty and want some tea, just tell me. Can't our company even afford a cup of tea?"
"I never scold my employees, so why should I ask outsiders to criticize me?"
"You, you, you little..." Wu Shuhua was scolded by Lin Zheng before she could finish her curse.
"Shut up! This is the company, take care of your image."
Then, he smiled and introduced them to Qi Xu one by one.
"This is your Aunt Wu. This is your sister, Lin Ling."
Qi Xu asked in a clueless manner without even raising his eyelids.
"oh?"
"Are they distant relatives of the Lin family? I haven't even met them."
"Is this my aunt? Or my uncle? Or my aunt?"
"Should I call this cousin? Or cousin? Cousin?"
This series of questions left Lin Zheng at a loss as to how to answer.
Because of Wu Shuhua's identity, it is really difficult to explain.
He could only answer one way. "Lin Ling is Ah You's biological sister. So, you have to call her sister."
"Ah? Oh my God!" Qi Xu pretended to be surprised.
"Youqian actually has a sister this old? How come I've never heard him mention her?"
Lin Youqian once mentioned this, but did not elaborate.
Because he had only met his half-sister a few times when he was a child, and there had been no contact since then.
Lin Zheng smiled bitterly.
It's normal that Qi Xu doesn't know. Because Lin Youqian himself has a distant relationship with his sister, the two siblings might not even recognize each other when they meet.
"Lin Ling has been living abroad with her mother. So Ah You may not have mentioned it to you. In the future, we will settle in China for a long time. We are all family, so we should love each other."
Qi Xu sneered.
This family is about to be torn apart by you, and you still have the nerve to say that we love each other. How hypocritical.
Qi Xu still didn't call anyone, and Lin Zheng didn't want to force her. He just drank his tea in silence, not knowing how to start.
Even more ridiculous was that the assistant never brought back the tea. Wu Shuhua and Lin Ling could only sit there in silence.
Several times, they wanted to lose their temper, but were calmed down by Lin Zheng's sharp eyes.
"Xiao Qi, how old are you?"
"Twenty-three."
"Very good! Where are your parents from?"
"People from Hades' Hall. They are all dead."
Lin Zheng originally wanted to find some topics to talk about and get closer to her, but who knew that two questions would kill the conversation.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know."
Qi Xu laughed sarcastically.
"You're busy, so of course you don't know. You don't care about Youqian, otherwise, why didn't you even attend our wedding? You didn't even know that your mother-in-law had passed away?"
Although she and Lin Youqian have not officially held a wedding yet, she said this on purpose just to embarrass him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't do it well."
"You don't have to apologize to me. You should tell Yuqian and your wife."
Qi Xu deliberately used the word "wife" to remind him of his shameless behavior.
Lin Zheng looked embarrassed and didn't want to talk to her anymore.
"Why are you here? Where's she?"
Qi Xu knew who he was talking about, but he pretended to be stupid.
"Who? Are you asking about your son? Or your wife?"
Her pretense was flawless. No one could find fault with her. She kept calling him "wife," deliberately stabbing him in the heart.
Lin Zheng raised his eyes slightly, sighed deeply, and said the long-lost name.
"Wen Lan."
Qi Xu continued to smile and emphasized Wen Lan's identity again.
"Oh! Your wife wasn't feeling well a few days ago and went on a trip. For now, I'll be in charge of the company."
She kept calling her wife "your wife" all the time, which made Wu Shuhua, who was standing next to her, jump up in anger.
"Hey, Mr. Qi, what do you mean? Please make it clear that I am A Zheng's original wife."
"As a junior, it's fine if you don't greet your elders when you see them, but who are you trying to show off to by being so sarcastic?"
Qi Xu was not to be outdone and slammed the table and roared.
"Who are you, old woman? How dare you yell in my office? If it weren't for Mr. Lin, I would have had the security kick you out."
As soon as he entered the door, Qi Xu called him Uncle Lin, and after that he always called him Mr. Lin.
Wu Shuhua was so angry that she complained to Lin Zheng.
"A Zheng, look how arrogant she is."
Who doesn't know how to file a complaint? Qi Xu followed suit and threw the problem to the original sinner.
"Boss Lin, the person you brought here is so uncultured. I respect her as an elder and give her some face, but she really thinks she's a nobody."
"This is our Lin family's company. How can an outsider, an old woman, have the right to order us around?"
Seeing her like this, Lin Zheng thought she was a well-behaved and sensible child. But who knew her claws were so sharp that they tore him apart without him being able to take them.
Seeing her mother being scolded, Lin Ling also joined the fight and cursed at Qi Xu.
"Who the hell do you think you are? This company belongs to my dad, it's not your turn to make the decisions."
Qi Xu shouted angrily.
"Ms. Lin, please be polite. This company is currently run by my mother-in-law; she is the CEO. My husband is the heir to the largest stake in this company, so I naturally have the final say. And you, please stop talking nonsense."
