Chapter 35 - Bragging stepmother
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Gu Lin, I'm …"
"It's my boyfriend. I came home with him today to see dad." As for why, she didn't know either. Gu Lin, on the other hand, didn't continue speaking. It could be said that he had tacitly agreed to her decision.
"Boyfriend?" His stepmother sized up Gu Lin. He was wearing a famous suit and shoes, but his speech was extraordinary. This handsome and rich youth was actually Ying Yue's boyfriend. He had truly gone blind.
Actually, she wanted to say, why was there a boyfriend like this who was not his own daughter?
"Gu …" "Gu Lin, right?" Her stepmother's mood immediately turned sunny as she opened the door with a smile, "Come in, please come in."
He didn't forget to tell his own daughter: "Wen Xi, what are you waiting for, hurry up and make tea for Mr. Gu."
"Alright, I'll go now." Ying Wenxi then looked longingly at Gu Lin. He was truly handsome, and most importantly, he was truly rich.
Gu Lin didn't cater to his stepmother's enthusiasm. Instead, he took the bag of fruits that Ying Yue had stubbornly refused to give him and walked in with her.
When her stepmother saw this, her blooming smile froze. What she couldn't bear to see the most was someone trying to be nice to Yue.
"Mr. Gu, please have some tea." When Ying Wenxi first entered the room, Ying Yue already knew about his ulterior motives. Moreover, she did not guess wrong, that this mother and daughter pair would probably have a double play very soon.
His goal was to discredit himself.
So it was like that.
"Mr. Gu." "You and Ying Yue should have just made contact. Although this child is not my biological body, I know her well, and Mr. Gu might not know it. This girl's personality is very violent, if there's the slightest bit of discomfort, she would tell it out without hesitation, ignoring the feelings of others."
"Unlike my little girl Wen Xi, who is quiet and gentle, always thinking of others when she does things. It's exactly because I'm too worried about her kindness that I can't stop worrying about her going into society to adventure."
"Mom, how can you speak like that about your own daughter? I'm just not as domineering as you, aren't you, sister?" Ying Wenxi looked at Ying Yue who was sitting on the sofa opposite Gu Lin and asked.
Elder sister? When Ying Yue thought of this, she felt it was laughable, even disgusting. When had she become the big sister in her mouth? Weren't she the one who called her 'big sister' just now?
Normally, Ying Yue would have exploded a long time ago. However, because Gu Lin was present today, Ying Yue did her best to tell herself not to get angry.
Although they did not like these people, and although they had never been in the same family, there was a saying that said family was untouchable.
The scene at the entrance just now was already enough to embarrass her. Ying Yue didn't want Gu Lin to see an even more unsightly side to her.
Thus, he had to bear with it today if he could.
Even for Dad.
Ying Yue didn't say anything as she continued to sit there quietly. What she didn't expect was that her lack of participation and lack of opposition further fuelled the mother and daughter pair's arrogance.
"What is the Mr. Gu doing?" The atmosphere of a small citizen was extremely strong, and he was both mean and servile.
"I'm a lawyer." Gu Lin was also as courteous as before. "This is my name card."
"Oh, business card." The stepmother took the card, but when she saw the title on it, her eyes widened.
"Aiya, so Mr. Gu has started a law firm. Is it with me or with others?" He continued to interrogate him.
"I'll run my own business."
Hearing this, Ying Wenxi once again sized up Gu Lin who was drinking tea. His eyes glanced at the watch on his wrist, and his eyes shined even brighter.
That was a famous brand, a high grade product among high grade goods, at least several million. It seems like the boyfriend Ying Yue found was really rich, with her bad temper, why can't I find such an outstanding boyfriend?
At the same time, his stepmother's little plan struck again. If his own daughter could snatch this Gu Lin away from Ying Yue, then he would have a truly good life in the future. No matter what he wanted to eat or buy, he wouldn't need to care about Ying Yue's expression anymore.
That's it.
If he wanted to raise his own daughter, then he must try his best to lower the character of others. This person was Ying Yue.
"Mr. Gu." "My stepmother said even more politely," My family's Wen Xi is 22 years old now, and after graduating from university, there are already several companies that have asked for her to sign the contract. Also, last time, both mother and daughter went shopping, and a filmmaker took a fancy to Wen Xi and said that he wanted to look for her to make a movie.
Gu Lin didn't reply. Furthermore, he wasn't the type of person to talk too much. Moreover, he had no way to continue on with his words.
When she saw that Gu Lin didn't react, her stepmother grew even more furious.
"Aiya, Mr. Gu, my youngest daughter is an obedient child. This is what I taught her since she was young, and also what she did, but this Ying Yue is different, she has always been stubborn and hostile towards me. Look what she has become, she's a real workaholic, she doesn't know how to take care of people, she doesn't know how to talk, she has her own personality, no matter how hard I try, she can't change this bad habit of hers."
"I think that Ying Yue is very assertive. Furthermore, she is a reporter, so reporters should have this kind of character."
Ying Yue felt that Gu Lin must have been a little dissatisfied with her, which was why she spoke up for her. However, when her stepmother heard this, she became even more serious.
"Mr. Gu, you and Ying Yue have only known each other for a short period of time, so you don't understand her personality. It's not that I disapprove of the two of you making boyfriend and girlfriend, but it's because of the concern a mother has for a daughter, and Ying Yue's personality is just too domineering, so she isn't suited to be a business type man like you in Mr. Gu. Think carefully, you spent the entire day working outside, and when you returned home, your meals were not ready, and your baths were not properly placed.
, since the two of you are not suitable, why don't you break up earlier?
As her stepmother said this, she touched her own daughter, Ying Wenxi.
"Mr. Gu, your tea is a little cold. Should I exchange it for a cup of warm tea?" Ying Wenxi also completely unleashed his Flexible Bone Method.
Ying Yue had never thought that her stepmother and Ying Wenxi would actually act in such an undisguised manner.
But Gu Lin's one sentence completely destroyed all the daydreams and delusions that his stepmother and Ying Wenxi had.
Thus, they exposed the ugly face that Ying Yue had always wanted to cover for them.
It was uncontrollable.
