Just like the results of her discussions with Leng Nuan the previous time around, Shi Yao thought that Liang Mumu would try to tamper with the gift she had prepared.
But from the looks of it now, she had thought wrong.
Or rather, she had underestimated just what kind of person Liang Mumu was.
From the start to the end, Liang Mumu never had the intention to tamper with the inkstone she bought. Liang Mumu knew that she was poor and couldn’t afford anything expensive, and that was the greatest weakness she had compared to Liang Mumu.
Due to that, Liang Mumu was able to set such a trap for her.
Shi Yao had to admit that Liang Mumu was pretty formidable. At the very least, her tricks had worked this time around.
1How could an inkstone she had spent 200 RMB on possibly be authentic?
1So, it was not without reason why Qin Yiran and Liang Mumu appeared in the antique market back then. Qin Yiran was her spy, and she brought Liang Mumu there to have a look at the inkstone Shi Yao had bought. With that information, Liang Mumu went ahead to look for the real deal to buy…
Shi Yao knew that Grandpa Lin wouldn’t mind the fact that her inkstone was a fake. In the first place, buying a fake inkstone wasn’t something contemptible. It was just that her identity was that of the future granddaughter-in-law of the Lin Family…
Liang Mumu’s actions had tarnished the reputation of the Lin Family, and the culprit who had allowed it to happen was her…
From this perspective, Liang Mumu had succeeded in her aim.
1The Lin Family was bound to hate her after this…
Even if Grandpa Lin, who doted on her, and Sis Jiayi, who was on extremely good terms with her, didn’t mind this, the rest of the family wouldn’t necessarily think the same. At this rate, even if she didn’t annul her engagement with Lin Jiage, the Lin Family would probably do it themselves instead.
At this point, it felt like the only thing she could do was to apologize to Grandpa Lin.
With such thoughts in mind, Shi Yao turned to look at Grandpa Lin.
But even though she was the one who had embarrassed the Lin Family and caused such an unhappy incident during Grandpa Lin’s birthday, she couldn’t see the slightest hint of blame in Grandpa Lin’s eyes at all. Instead, they were filled with worry for her…
1All along, she knew that Grandpa Lin really doted on her, and this scene really left her feeling deeply moved, as well as a little sad.”
She fiddled with the fork in her hands as she called out “Grandpa Lin”, but before she could apologize, the latter had already interjected, “Yaoyao, it’s fine. Grandpa doesn’t lack that kind of money.”
Hearing Grandpa Lin’s words, Lin Jiayi, who was seated beside Shi Yao, spoke up as well, “Yeah, it doesn’t matter whether it’s real or not. It’s the sincerity that counts. Just let the others say whatever they want to. It’s their mouth, we can’t control what they say. It’s fine, Yaoyao.”
It was still fine before Grandpa Lin and Lin Jiayi said those words, but after hearing their consolations, she felt even more guilty and upset than before.
Her eyelids drooped a little as she moved her lips a little. She wanted to say “I’m sorry”, but before she could utter a word at all, a cake was suddenly shoved into her mouth.
She was taken aback for a moment before she turned her head over with a delayed reaction. She found herself faced with a nonchalant Lin Jiage, who looked as if nothing had happened at all.
Meeting her gaze, Lin Jiage explained casually, “The fruits on the cake won’t taste good if you leave them for too long.”
After saying those words, he cut the cake with his fork and delivered it toward Shi Yao’s mouth. At the same time, he swept a glance at the crowd who had gathered around to watch the show. He waited until Shi Yao was done eating the cake before he remarked nonchalantly, “How can you be so sure that Miss Liang’s inkstone is the real one and Yaoyao’s is fake?”
