"What are you doing?" Lin Yang saw Xiao Zheng was stunned and followed his stiff turn.
She had a bad feeling about it.
This turn of the head confirmed this premonition.
Ms. Song and Lin Zhengguo returned from outside at some point. The couple stood with their arms crossed, looking like they were waiting to see what kind of trouble Lin Yang would cause.
"Dad...Mom..." Lin Yang forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, waved, and said, "Hi..."
Ms. Song and Lin Zhengguo simultaneously extended their hands in response to Lin Yang, "Hey, are you planning to run away? Abandoning the Lin family?"
"No...no..." Lin Yang stammered nervously, "I just planned to go for a walk, haha. I was afraid you would worry, so I told my nephew not to tell anyone, right, nephew?"
Lin Yang nudged Xiao Zheng, who was still in a daze, with her elbow.
"Really? Zheng'er?" Ms. Song raised her voice at the end of her sentence and looked at Xiao Zheng with raised eyebrows.
"Haha... I don't know anything... I don't know anything..." Xiao Zheng didn't dare to offend either side, so he muttered these two sentences and quickly went back to his room to make a quick getaway.
Damn it! They just left her here all alone!
That heartless Xiao Zheng! He's been letting him eat and drink so much for free all this time!
One day I'll make that little brat spit it out on her!
"You go back to your room and stay there! You're not allowed to go anywhere!" Ms. Song approached Lin Yang with a powerful aura as she walked in her high heels.
"Mom..." Lin Yang started to play her part again, her eyes brimming with tears, ready to exert herself, "Daughter really doesn't want to get married... Please, Mom... Waaah..."
Her eyes were red and swollen, and tears slid gracefully one after another, landing clearly on the floor.
She was so pitiful that I felt sorry for her.
“Yangzai, the Xu family and our family have been friends for generations. Either we only had boys at the same time, or we only had girls at the same time. It’s not easy for you to have a boy and a girl in your generation.” Ms. Song tried to persuade her to understand that their fate was predetermined by heaven.
After a pause, Ms. Song continued, "Yangzai, your grandmother has long intended for the Lin family and the Xu family to be closer. Now that the Xu family patriarch has taken the initiative to propose a marriage alliance, it couldn't be more wonderful. Just think about it, how many women would love to step into the Xu family? You've made a fortune, you should be secretly thrilled!"
Lin Yang didn't know how much she had earned; all she knew was that if she were to marry Xu Chengzhi, it would be tantamount to courting death.
"Mom, I don't want to marry him. Xu Chengzhi is after our family's money, not me!" Lin Yang tried to reduce Mrs. Song's goodwill towards the Xu family by speaking ill of Xu Chengzhi.
To her surprise, as soon as she said this, Ms. Song looked at her with the astonishment of someone who had gone mad. "Yangzai, can you please wake up? The Xu family is incredibly wealthy, many times wealthier than ours. How could they possibly be after just one Lin family? Besides, our family..."
Ms. Song hesitated, looking troubled, unsure whether she should continue.
Ms. Song turned to Lin Zhengguo for help, and after seeing him nod in tacit agreement, she continued, "Moreover, our family is already facing a crisis. If it weren't for the support of the Xu family, our Lin family might very well face bankruptcy."
Good grief, is he trying to appeal to her emotions?
For the sake of her own life, Lin Yang gritted her teeth and began to throw a tantrum, "Mom! I won't marry him! He's no good in bed! He can't make me happy!"
Lin Yang is truly the best at maliciously smearing others; when she's desperate, she can even use this kind of excuse to avoid getting married.
However, she believed she was right. She had heard from his friends several times that he was still a naive young virgin. How could he possibly have any experience in that area?
