At five or six o’clock in the afternoon, the setting sun shone in through the French windows. It softened the edges of all the dark-colored furniture, but it didn’t soften the Lin family’s emotions at all.

Fu Qingshan’s words just now, which sounded so casual and even a little provocative to everyone, made the current atmosphere even more strange. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

The huge living room was silent for about ten seconds before Ou Qiao stood up and said, “since you’re back, come over and sit. ”

Fu Qingshan nodded slightly at the elders on the SOFA and walked over with Lin Yan in his arms.

Lin Nancheng and Song Guo sat on the long row of SOFA opposite Lin Minghan and Ou Qiao. Fu Qingshan carried Lin Yan over and placed her directly next to Song Guo. Song Guo smiled politely at the two of them and felt uncomfortable all over She didn’t know where to put her hands.

After all, she was a real outsider at the family banquet before the remarriage. She would more or less appear restrained and awkward.

Lin Nancheng was very sharp. He could sense her uneasiness at a glance. He directly stretched out his long arms and hugged her to his chest. His movements were very big, so big that it attracted the attention of all the elders who were looking at Lin Yan and Fu Qingshan.

Song Guo’s tender white face turned red. She struggled slightly, but she couldn’t get out at all. She was still tightly hugged by him. She could only lower her head and tidy her hair, pretending not to see the gaze of others, to cover up the awkwardness for a second.

After receiving the gaze of the elders, Lin Nancheng crossed his slender legs together, then leaned over to pick up an apple and handed it to the woman beside him. He casually asked, “what do you think? ” “President Fu is busy buying other people’s companies all day long, and he still has time to come to our small courtyard as a guest. It really makes our lin residence shine. ”

Lin Nancheng’s teasing words made Song Guo Frown. She gently poked his waist with her hand, indicating that he should not always speak with guns in his mouth.

The man did not seem to feel anything and continued, “If you ask me, our Lin family really can not afford to worship you… ”

Before Lin Nancheng could finish his sentence, Song Guo stuffed a piece of apple into his mouth. “You must be thirsty after talking for so long. The apple is quite sweet. Have a taste. ”

Lin Nancheng lowered his head and glanced at Song Guo. He immediately began to chew on the apple she stuffed into his mouth and added, “yes, it is quite sweet. ”

His words were meaningful, as if he was really saying that the apple was sweet, or that it was because she was the one who handed it to him.

She didn’t analyze it in detail. Instead, she turned her head to the side and didn’t say anything else.

Fu Qingshan had already sunk his broad back into the back of the SOFA when Lin Nancheng was teasing him. He placed one hand on the back of the SOFA, forming an invisible encirclement And the person who encircled him was undoubtedly the beautiful woman whose hands were tightly clasped together.

He waited until Lin Nancheng finished speaking before he opened his thin lips slightly. He wanted to respond to his words, but the woman beside him did the same thing and handed him an apple. Then, she crudely stuffed it into her mouth. “I also think that this apple is quite sweet. Have a taste. ”

Fu Qingshan raised his eyebrows and looked at her for a few seconds before he began to chew the apple in his mouth. In the end, he said nothing.

Seeing this, Ou Qiao hurriedly stood up and said, “I’ll go to the kitchen to see how the dinner is prepared. ”

Hearing Ou Qiao’s words, grandma Lin also stood up and said, “I’ll go and have a look too. Old Man, you accompany the guest and chat first. ”

The word “guest” not only pulled the distance between the Lin family and Fu Qingshan, but also pulled the distance between the Lin family and Song Guo.

Yes, she knew long ago that a woman like her would never be able to match up to Lin Nancheng, who had once been the favored son of Heaven, even if he was now in deep prison He would become the “fallen young master, ” the “Pauper, ” or even the “nobleman with nothing, ” in everyone’s eyes. However, she knew that it would not be long before he would be able to return to his peak.

His current abject state was merely a temporary forbearance and hibernation.

He was clearly a Goshawk entrenched in the sky. How could he become the same kind of person as her because of his momentary abject state That would be too unfair to him.

Grandma Lin’s words made Song Guo look even more embarrassed. However, Fu Qingshan, on the other hand, did not have any expression at all. There was even a smirk hanging on the corner of his lips. It was like an impenetrable iron wall. No one’s words could shake him Nor could they hurt him.

Lin Nancheng tightened his long arms around Song Guo. Then, he whispered into her ear “Don’t be afraid. Grandma is not talking about you. They can’t wait for me to get married and have children. How could they have any objections to the woman I brought back? Relax, HMM? ”

Song Guo really wanted to nod, but she really felt uncomfortable. Just as he was about to retreat, she quickly moved closer and whispered into his ear, “Lin Nancheng, I’d better leave first… ”

“Song Guo, I remember that night when I forced my way in, you cried like a pear blossom in the rain and called me a b * stard. You said that I was just toying with your feelings and body. You even asked if I would be responsible for you. What did I answer? HMM? ”

Song Guo did not speak. She shrank her shoulders and avoided his warm breath. However, he did not allow it. He spoke slowly and clearly “I kissed the tears off your face bit by bit. I said, ‘Song Guo, I will be responsible for you. I will marry you into the Lin family and make you Mrs. Lin. ‘ ”

He lowered his voice very low, so low that it was sexy “Now that I am responsible, why are you backing out? Will you back out and leave me here alone if there is even the slightest movement in my family or if I say something unpleasant? ”

Song Guo’s eyelashes trembled slightly. After a long while, she spoke again “I… … I don’t have the confidence. Lin Nancheng, you deserve a better woman. I know that I was too greedy. I shouldn’t have said that. After all, I didn’t stop you with harsh words. I even responded to you emotionally. Just pretend that nothing happened that night … ..

“That’s easy for you to say. ”

Lin Nancheng gritted his teeth. “But it’s a pity that I took it seriously. ”

“You only have two choices now. One is to be Mrs. Lin, and the other is to be a woman that I can toy with. You choose. ”

Song Guo knew that he was speaking out of anger, but she also knew that his family would not agree to this marriage, and her father would also try his best to cause trouble. He would even destroy her reputation in order to obtain more benefits for himself He would not care about whether she was living well or not, whether she was happy or not.

“If the two of you continue to flirt and mumble like this, then get the hell out. ”

Lin Zhengchen first endured Fu Qingshan and Lin Yan’s intense love. After a while, it was Lin Nancheng and Song Guo’s turn. He could no longer control his temper and growled.

Song Guo was shocked by Lin Zhengchen’s sudden temper. She trembled and the blood on her face faded. It quickly turned Pale.

She apologized and was about to leave, but Lin Nancheng pulled her back.

She fell into Lin Nancheng’s arms. Before she started to struggle, she heard Lin Nancheng say, “Grandfather, father, I brought Song Guo back today. Firstly, I want her to recognize the Lin family. Secondly… I want to marry her and make her my wife and become Mrs. Lin. ”

“impossible. ”

Lin Minghan jumped up from the SOFA. On the other hand, Lin Zhengchen’s reaction was very calm. It was as if his grandson, who had placed all his hopes on, had married such a low-class woman. It was not a shameful thing for him.

Or to be more precise, his energy had been almost exhausted by Fu Qingshan and Lin Yan. At this moment, he did not have the extra energy to throw a Tantrum.

Lin Minghan’s reaction was undoubtedly a dose of medicine in Song Guo’s heart, which was not firm enough to begin with.

Lin Yan saw Song Guo’s Pale face and quickly nudged the man beside her, indicating for him to help.

Fu Qingshan glanced at her from the corner of his eyes, giving her a look that said, “why should I help? “.

Lin Yan frowned. That expression was clearly telling him to hurry up. He looked at her twice more before speaking calmly, “Dad, GRANDPA, let’s talk about me and Lin Yan first… ”

“HMPH, I have nothing to talk about with you. ”

Lin Minghan glared at him, turned around and left.

Once Lin Minghan left, only Fu Qingshan, Lin Yan, Lin Nancheng, Song Guo, and Lin Zhengchen were left in the huge living room.

Lin Zhengchen’s large hands, which had experienced the vicissitudes of life, were placed on the exquisite turn of his head. The imposing manner that he emitted was completely unlike a person who had already fallen into decline. It was more like the wisdom and sharpness that had been accumulated after being in a high position for a long time. There was also a trace of calmness that could see through the affairs of the world It made people feel that it was very difficult to get close to him at a glance.

Of course, it was even more difficult to get close to his heart and become a family that wanted to live together.

Lin Nancheng’s large hand was always on Song Guo’s waist, preventing her from moving. However, he did not ask her to not react at all. Instead, he waited for Lin Zhengchen, the head of the Lin family, to speak.

If he wanted to marry Song Guo, he would definitely have to go through his family. However, if they did not agree, he would not change his mind easily.

No matter what was in between, he would use all means to get the woman he wanted to marry.

Even if it was difficult, even if… … She did not love him enough …

“How about this, Xiaocheng, push back the marriage between you and miss song. After all, your sister’s stomach can’t wait. I’m afraid that if she remarries the boy from the Fu family again, this child will be born soon. Although our Lin family has become a poor family, we won’t let the precious Pearl of our family, who has been in our hands since young, be wronged. What do you think? ”

Lin Nancheng frowned. Before he could speak, Lin Yan continued, “grandfather, actually, I can do the wedding with brother. Anyway, our Lin family hasn’t been so lively for a long time. Moreover… Xin Qiao also needs her mother. ”

Lin Zhengchen’s face finally changed. He looked at the pale-faced Song Guo and said, “there’s no rush. Xin Qiao’s identity hasn’t been verified yet. I think Miss Song won’t be in a hurry. ”

“GRANDPA, Xin Qiao and my brother look so much alike. There’s no need for verification at all… ”

Lin Yan was afraid that her brother and GRANDPA would quarrel, so she tried her best to ease the atmosphere. However, her words clearly didn’t get Lin Zhengchen’s approval. “Xiao Yan, you haven’t even figured out your own matters, so don’t worry about your brother’s matters. ”

The implication was that Xin Qiao had to sit on the DNA.

And this DNA test was clearly the last straw between Song Guo and Lin Nancheng.

Lin Zhengchen had played with scheming all his life. Although he disdained to use it on his own children and grandchildren, he did not mind playing with it if it was necessary.

Lin Yan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lin Nancheng with a wave of his hand “Grandfather, you often say that I’m like you in every way. That’s because we’re unusually persistent in taking a fancy to things. To be honest with you, Song Guo is the first woman I’ve met in all these years that I want to marry. No matter how many obstacles there are between us, I will get her. ”

Fu Qingshan’s large hand kept knocking on his KNEECAP. Seeing the two of them arguing seemed to be especially enjoyable.

Or More Accurately, it was gloating.

If Lin Nancheng wanted to marry Song Guo, the pressure he would face would be even greater than the pressure he would face if he were to remarry Lin Yan.

Seeing the pain he had to endure and face in someone else’s body, this feeling was f * Cking Great.

Lin zhengchen glanced at Fu Qingshan, who was gloating beside him, and then glanced at Lin Nancheng, who rarely had a serious expression on his face. He said with a smile, “Xiaocheng, you can’t tell others about your family’s dirty laundry. Did you pick today to deliberately come and tell your father and grandfather about your dirty laundry so as to embarrass our Lin family? ”

“Not really. I didn’t know that he would come. ”

Everyone present knew that this “he” referred to Fu Qingshan.

Fu Qingshan didn’t move his eyes after hearing that. He just spread his hands and said in an innocent tone, “Grandfather, I didn’t know that he would choose to show his dirty laundry today. If I knew, I would have chosen to come later or come another day. If you feel embarrassed, I can leave now and wait for Yan ‘er outside… ”

As he said this, Fu Qingshan was about to get up and leave. Lin zhengchen picked up his walking stick and knocked it hard on the ground as he said with a cold snort, “You have the nerve to wash your hands clean? If I’m not wrong, the two of you have already colluded in private, right? Otherwise, there aren’t so many coincidences in this world. ”

“from the beginning to the end, it’s a bad script. It’s always on the line. If you can still deceive me, my life will really be wasted. ”

After saying these strange words, Lin Zhengchen directly stood up from the SOFA and continued, “since you’re already here, there’s no reason to leave. Stay here tonight. The Lin family has indeed not been so lively for a long time. ”

“GRANDPA Lin… ”

Song Guo didn’t understand the battle of conspiracies between men, but the words just now made her see herself clearly. She really wanted to say something, but Lin Zhengchen didn’t give her the chance “There’s no need to say it. We can talk about everything after dinner. ”

With that, he walked away with the crutch in his hand, leaving the four people on the Sofa to look at each other in dismay.

Of course, Fu Qingshan and Lin Nancheng’s expressions were very calm and didn’t reveal too much emotion, as if Lin Zhengchen hadn’t said anything just now.

After Lin Zhengchen left, Lin Yan whispered into Fu Qingshan’s ear, “I’m a little tired. I want to go upstairs and lie down for a while. ”

Fu Qingshan knew that she was making room for Lin Nancheng and Song Guo. He didn’t ask anything and carried her upstairs.

After everyone left, Song Guo struggled to leave Lin Nancheng’s warm embrace. This time, Lin Nancheng didn’t force her to stay in his arms. Instead, he continued to look at her through the sunset.

After a few seconds, Song Guo composed herself and said, “Lin Nancheng, we… we should break up. ”

“I don’t want to be a burden to others, and I don’t want to be a burden to myself. I can even imagine how tiring it would be to be with you, and… “Xin Qiao is so young, and we have to do a paternity test for her. Even if we can hide it from her, she will find out one day. I don’t want her to think that I’m a failure as a mother. ”

After all, she was still very concerned about doing a paternity test.

In her mind, she could suffer all kinds of grievances for love, but she definitely could not let Xin Qiao suffer as well.

Doing a paternity test meant that the Lin family had doubts about Xin Qiao’s identity.

Although she was not too rich, she was enough to support Xin Qiao. She did not need the backing of a wealthy family or her confidence.

She could really work hard to earn money and give herself confidence.

“Look me in the eye and tell me that you want to separate from me. ”

Song Guo’s gaze had always been erratic. When she heard his words, she suddenly shrank back. However, after a few seconds, she still raised her head and looked at the man opposite her “Lin Nancheng, have you ever thought that even if we get past your family, we might not be able to get past mine? My father has always been planning my marriage… ”

“In other words, marrying me requires a lot of money. I think you should know this as well. ”

As she said this, she lowered her head again. “Your career is not stable now. It’s full of thorns and you can’t even get an investment, let alone taking out so much money to marry a woman you don’t love… What do you want? ”

“So, you’re telling me that I can’t afford to marry you, or I can think that you’re complaining that I’m poor and can’t give you the life of a wealthy family that you want, right? ”

“I’m not… ”

Song Guo shook her head. Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Lin Nancheng in a low voice “Song Guo, I’m going to tell you one last time. Don’t try to convince me. I don’t want to marry you on impulse. I really think that we can spend the rest of our lives together. Don’t use love or other material things to kidnap me. Do you understand? ”

Lin Nancheng was really angry. His voice was filled with a bone-chilling coldness.

Song Guo trembled for a moment before she slowly said, “but… the marriage I want must have love. Even if there is no love, at least I don’t need to look up to it… ”

She paused slightly at this point. “Lin Nancheng, I’ve always looked up to you, from the past until now. ”

Lin Nancheng gave her a deep look and only said one sentence, “that’s your problem. ”

With that, he strode out of the living room, leaving her alone on the Sofa, lost in thought.



After Fu Qingshan carried Lin Yan back to the room upstairs, Lin Yan did not go to bed to rest. Instead, she stood by the door and looked out at the corridor through the crack of the door, as if waiting for Lin Nancheng or song Guo to walk up hand in hand.

Yes, she was afraid that the two of them would end their argument on bad terms.

After waiting and waiting, she saw Lin Nancheng walking over from the stairs with a dark face, but he did not see Song Guo.

She rushed out to welcome him, but she stumbled because her footsteps were too fast.

Fu Qingshan stood by her side to protect her. When he saw that she was about to fall, he pulled her back without thinking and held her firmly in front of his chest.

Such a big movement directly pulled Lin Nancheng, whose thoughts had drifted far away.

He glanced at the two of them and walked over. The moment they brushed past each other, Lin Yan still opened her mouth, “brother, did you quarrel with Guoguo? ”

“What do you think? ”

Lin Nancheng replied lightly and continued to walk towards his room. Just as he took two steps, Lin Yan said again, “brother, don’t argue with her. I. . . When I went for a checkup two days ago, I accidentally bumped into her once. Although… although she covered herself up tightly, I still recognized her at a glance… ”

“What? ”

Lin Nancheng quickly turned around and looked over. “She went to the hospital? Is it the obstetrics and Gynecology Department? ”

Lin Yan nodded. “It should be. ”

Lin Nancheng did not say anything else and quickly ran downstairs.

No wonder she looked so disappointed just now. It turned out that she had ruined his child again.

If Xin Qiao needed a paternity test, then the child in her belly also needed to be done.

A woman giving birth was equivalent to walking out of the gates of hell. If she walked out of the gates of hell twice for him, but in exchange for two paternity tests, it was not a question of whether she loved him or not, but whether it was worth it.

No Man was worth it for her to do this, and neither was he.

Song Guo had already quietly stood up and left without alerting anyone.

She was no longer afraid of the eyes of others. Perhaps she had already experienced even more embarrassing situations, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

She walked for a long distance in her ten-centimeter high heels when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. She did not turn back, but instead quickened her pace and walked forward. In the end, it turned into a trot.

It was inconvenient for her to wear high heels. Even if she ran, she could not run very fast. He caught up with her in a few steps.

She was forced to stop and smiled at the handsome man in front of her. “What’s wrong? ”

“Why are you crying? ”

When she turned around, her face was already covered in tears, but she did not know it. It was not until he reminded her that she reached out to wipe away the tears on her face. “It’s nothing. The wind is too strong. My eyes hurt from the blowing. ”

“come in with me. ”

“I don’t really want to stay for dinner. You can go in. Don’t disturb the family dinner that we’ve finally gathered together. ”

Lin Nancheng grabbed her arm with one hand and said after a long while, “I’m sorry. ”

“Oh, it’s okay. ”

“I’m sorry too. I also apologize for my grandfather, father, and all my family members. ”

“Oh, it’s okay with me. I’ve experienced this kind of thing too many times since I was young. I’m already immune to it. Hurry up and go in. I’ll be fine. ”

Her face was filled with a gentle smile, as if she really didn’t care.

Lin Nancheng used some more strength to hold her arm and then said another sentence “Come in with me. My grandfather’s words have already tacitly acknowledged our relationship. Also… I won’t do a paternity test. The whole world knows that Xin Qiao is my child, so there’s no need to do it at all. It’s just that I didn’t think about it too much. I’m sorry. ”

“It’s okay. It’s normal for them to have such thoughts. ”

Which Noble family in the upper class didn’t have some secrets.

It was common for them to do a paternity test.

As she spoke, she began to struggle again. However, the man suddenly pulled her into his arms and comforted her in a low voice, “I know that I’ve gone too far. Guoguo, I’m sorry. I really want you too much. ”

“Lin Nancheng, do you still love warmth? ”

“…”

A long silence was the answer that she had always known.

“You’ve always had a place for her in your heart. You even visited her often in prison. I know all of this. ”
