Chapter 131 Lin Yue?
“We wanted to too, but your brother thought that continuing his studies would cost money, so he wanted to go out and work,” Lin’s mother said helplessly.
“Mom, no problem. As long as he passes the exam, I’ll pay for it,” Lin Xi said.
“It’s not easy for you to be out there all by yourself, how can you go out alone?” Lin’s father chimed in.
"Sigh, Mom and Dad, have you forgotten that I work for a big company now? The salary isn't low," Lin Xi said helplessly.
"Then discuss it with your brother when the time comes. And remember, don't earn money you shouldn't earn. Don't try to climb the ladder overnight like others. It's better to work hard and steadily than anything else," Lin's mother couldn't help but advise.
"Okay, I understand," Lin Xi quickly assured him.
She knew they would say that. She wondered if they would be shocked if they knew their daughter was now worth billions. She had to find an opportunity to reveal it slowly.
"Dad, Mom, my company gave me a longer vacation this time. How about we go on a trip together when my brother is on vacation?"
"Sure, it's just that your sister is missing. Otherwise, it would be so nice if the whole family were together." Lin's mother looked at the photos on the wall in front of her, her face showing longing.
Lin Xi remembered that her sister had gotten married two years ago and had a daughter. Not long ago, she often saw her sister posting pictures of her child on WeChat Moments. However, due to illness and depression, she hadn't paid attention to family matters for a long time. She suddenly clicked on her sister's WeChat Moments.
The last time she posted was two months ago. I hope nothing bad has happened to her.
"Mom, since you miss my sister, why don't we go visit her this time? It doesn't matter where we go," Lin Xi quickly suggested.
"I think it's a good idea," Lin's father said with a smile.
"Okay, let's decide on that then." Lin's mother immediately smiled happily.
"Okay, then I'll call my sister." Lin Xi said and dialed the number.
"Hey? Sis, how are you doing? Why are you calling?"
A slightly tired voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I've recovered now. How are you doing? You sound so tired." Lin Xi noticed something was off about her voice.
"It's okay, I just climbed the stairs. As long as you're done here, it'll save Mom and Dad from worrying," Lin Yue said with concern.
"Okay, I'm on a long vacation now, and my parents, brother, and I are planning to come visit you. Is it convenient for you here?"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the sound of a bowl shattering on the other end of the phone could be heard.
"Sister, what happened to you?" Lin Xi asked anxiously, her voice filled with worry.
"Oh...it's nothing. I just lost my balance and knocked the bowl over. What did you say? You guys are coming over? That might not be convenient. I've been busy with the bank lately. I don't have time or place to entertain you if you come. Anyway, I'll be back for Chinese New Year this year, and we can have a good get-together then."
Lin Xi listened to the other person's slightly nervous voice and felt a little suspicious.
"Okay, then we'll go travel somewhere else. Take good care of yourself, and we'll get together again sometime."
"Okay, okay, you guys have fun. I'll hang up now, I still need to cook."
The call was quickly disconnected.
"What happened, Xiaoxi? I hope nothing bad has happened to your sister," Lin's mother asked worriedly.
"No, don't worry. My sister is just too busy. But even if she doesn't let us go, we can sneak off and surprise her. She'll definitely be happy," Lin Xi reassured her.
“Yes, Xiaoyue was worried that we wouldn’t have a good time, so we went secretly to give her a surprise.” Lin’s father chimed in, then glanced meaningfully at Lin Xi beside him.
"That's good, as long as nothing's wrong. I'll go cook now; I bought a lot of your favorite dishes today." With that, Lin's mother rushed off to the kitchen.
"Tell me, what did you sense?" Lin's father said calmly, taking a sip of tea.
"It's hard to say, so I'll have to go and see for myself." Lin Xi frowned slightly.
"Yeah, don't tell your mom, she tends to overthink things."
"it is good."
the other side.
"Honey, you're back! Dinner will be ready soon, just wait a little longer," Lin Yue said nervously as she looked at the man walking into the house.
"Who were you talking to on the phone just now?" Zhang Ming asked expressionlessly.
"My sister called me, and we chatted briefly," Lin Yue explained fearfully.
"Damn, that Lin Xi? Did they talk about anything?" Zhang Ming said thoughtfully.
"No, no, I hung up in less than a minute." Lin Yue quickly waved her hand, her face showing some signs of weariness, but the shadow of her former beauty could still be vaguely seen.
"That's fine then." Zhang Ming's tone softened a bit, but then he glanced sideways and suddenly saw a guitar in the corner. Instantly, his temper flared up, and he kicked it.
"Didn't I tell you to throw it away? Why is it still here? You're a mother now, and you're still making these flashy but impractical things. How could I have married such a spendthrift woman like you?" Zhang Ming said viciously.
He raised his hand as he spoke.
Lin Yue instinctively covered her head.
"Mom...Mom...Dad...Dad...Tangtang...Eat...Eat..." a childish voice called out.
Lin Yue saw Zhang Shiyu peeking out from the doorway, quickly ran over, and said kindly, "Mommy's here. Want some candy? How about we have some tomorrow? Mommy will give you another treat."
Zhang Ming raised his hand but lowered it the moment he saw Zhang Shiyu. His expression softened, and he squatted down with a smile, spreading his arms wide.
"Come here, let Daddy give you a hug, and Daddy will take you to play."
Zhang Shiyu, who was nestled contentedly in Lin Yue's arms, reflexively looked over upon hearing Zhang Ming's voice. After glancing at both sides, she happily ran towards Zhang Ming, giggling, "Daddy...hug...Daddy...Feifei."
"Okay, Daddy will take Xiaoshiyu and Feifei now."
Lin Yue watched the father and daughter playing happily, a maternal smile on her face.
As long as he treats Shiyu well, she... doesn't care...

"Xiaoxi, did you buy the wrong ticket? This is first class." Lin's mother, sitting in the VIP lounge, said worriedly, looking at the ticket in her hand.
"I'm rich, I'm now..." Lin Xi quickly covered his mouth, glared at him with a warning look in her eyes.
"This is reimbursed by the company. They prepared travel reimbursement slots for the first-place team this time, and your daughter happens to be on that list," Lin Xi explained.
"That's good. Your company is quite nice. I'll have to call and thank you next time."
At that moment, Hu Quan, who was sitting in his office, sneezed loudly.
He rubbed his nose nonchalantly; surely no one could be thinking about him in broad daylight.
He calmly took out the cold medicine and drank it with practiced ease.
I've been sneezing more and more lately...
