Hearing Lin Xiao’s name, the expressions of the Lin couple changed slightly.
Lin Zifeng’s sharp gaze landed on Lin Wanwan’s face, but Lin Wanwan was not affected at all. She smiled and asked again, “Is this question difficult to answer?”
Mrs. Lin’s tone was sorrowful. “Of course I won’t forget Xiao Xiao. However, she died young. Do I have to constantly bring her up and open the scars in my heart time and time again before Miss Lin is satisfied?”
“Mom, don’t be angry.”
Lin Qingxi patted her chest in a comforting manner and looked at Lin Wanwan again.
“Some pain is hidden in the heart. The reason why my parents came to Xia country this time is also because they miss my sister. You’re so outspoken. Is it because you don’t want to see us?”
Zhao Yao laughed mockingly. “This Lin Wanwan is a vile person with malicious intentions. Other than seducing men and causing destruction, what else can she do?”
“Yaoyao, shut up!”
Lin Wanwan enjoyed this performance that was well-written. She wiped the corner of her lips with a napkin and said, “I’m very gratified.”
Although she said this, she did not feel the slightest ripple in her heart, “It’s a coincidence. Last time, I accidentally heard CEO Jin tell Lin Qingxi that Lin Xiao was schemed by Lin Qingxi to get kicked out of the Lin family. As Lin Xiao’s fan, I really want to know if you guys are aware of this matter?”
She completely ignored the Lin couple’s drastic change in expression and answered her own question, “You should be aware of it. Otherwise, the both of you wouldn’t have made up an excuse to abduct her.”
Smack!
Lin Zifeng slammed the table angrily. “Nonsense!”
Mrs. Lin looked displeased, “Miss Lin, I’ve long heard from Qingxi that there was a small misunderstanding between you and her. But I didn’t expect that you would even make up such a rumor in order to smear her name. If you continue to spout nonsense, our family will no longer welcome you!”
“Mrs. Lin’s motherly heart really touched me.”
There was probably no other wife in the world who would protect an illegitimate daughter like this.
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, “However, why are you both so angry? You seem to have a guilty conscience.”
The Lin couple’s expressions were extremely ugly. The atmosphere at the banquet became very awkward.
However, the instigator of all this acted as if nothing had happened and continued to say, “Since you don’t believe me, even if I say it out loud, it’s useless. Just take it that I’m joking.”
After saying that, she ate her meal quietly.
Lin Qingxi looked at Lin Wanwan with hatred.
She had never hated someone so much. She wanted nothing more than to make her disappear from this world immediately.
“Dad, Mom, I’m a little uncomfortable. I’ll go upstairs first.”
Lin Qingxi looked as if she had been wronged. Her eyes were red as she left the table, causing Father Lin’s heart to ache. He could not help but vent his anger on Lin Wanwan.
“Miss Lin, I’ll let bygones be bygones on account that you’re a guest. If you dare to hurt my daughter again, I won’t tolerate it!”
Lin Wanwan smiled and didn’t say anything.
If Lin Qingxi was like Lin Xiao and could no longer bring benefits to the Lin family, would lin Zifeng still be able to maintain his fatherly face?
She suddenly looked forward to it.
The atmosphere downstairs was strange. Lin Qingxi, who was upstairs, called a servant to her room. “Bring over the wine that the guest wants to drink later.”
The servant did as she was told.
Lin Qingxi took a tall glass and filled it with wine. Then, she took out a syringe from the drawer and injected the liquid in the syringe into the wine.
“Bring this glass of wine to Lin Wanwan later. Once she drinks it, I’ll reward you with one million!”
The servant hesitated for a long time and nodded heavily.
