Chapter 98 - 98: Not to Make Her Sad
“I remember when 1 was young, my father worked hard in his career. He was very busy and hardworking. My mother took care of the family and took care of my father and me. Although the family wasn’t rich, we were happy and fulfilled.”
“Later on, my father’s career was successful, and we became rich. However, we could never get that feeling of home back. My father socialized a lot outside and started to fool around. Later on, Lin Qingqing’s mother came to my house. Only then did my happy family completely shatter.”
“Even now, I still miss my father when 1 was young. He loved me. But now, fatherly love has become a luxury for me.”
Because of money and benefits, all emotions had disappeared. Just like what her father had said today, there was no emotion. It was only natural.
Xiao Yichen listened to Lin Wan’s words but did not know how to answer and comfort her.
After Lin Wan finished speaking, she was worried that her negative emotions would affect Xiao Yichen. She suddenly took a deep breath and pretended to be in a better state. “I’m fine. It’s just that I’ve been sitting here for too long. When I think of the past, I feel a little sad.”
After saying that, before Xiao Yichen could say anything, Lin Wan hurriedly changed the topic and the atmosphere. She tried her best to smile and said, “I’m hungry. Let’s go eat.”
Xiao Yichen nodded, got up, and walked into the living room with Lin Wan.
After dinner, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan sat in the living room and watched television. Lin Wan watched the television screen absent-mindedly. Xiao Yichen saw all her expressions.
“Are you worried about your father?” Xiao Yichen suddenly asked, looking at Lin Wan beside him.
When she mentioned her father on the balcony, he guessed that she already knew about the incident with the Lin family’s company.
“…” Lin Wan didn’t expect Xiao Yichen to ask her question. She immediately restrained her thoughts and said, “Yes, I think he’s quite pitiful but also sad.” Xiao Yichen agreed with Lin Wan and continued to ask, “What do you think?”
He would do as she wished if she wanted to help Lin Tianyun.
He did not expect that destroying the Lin family’s company and cutting off Ding Caihua’s path to wealth would bring trouble to Lin Wan.
However, if he could make the Lin family’s company fall, he could also make the Lin family’s company rise.
Lin Wan shook her head and replied, “1 don’t have any thoughts. He brought this upon himself. He should bear the consequences.”
She thought about Ding Caihua’s attitude towards her yesterday and Lin Qingqing’s attitude towards her in the past. Her father had once chased her out of the Lin family. Coupled with what he had said today, she could not find any reason to help him.
Xiao Yichen did not say anything else.
After watching TV for a while, they both went upstairs to rest.
A new day began. When Xiao Yichen arrived in the Eastern Empire, he called You Luan to his office.
“What’s the current situation with the Lin family?” Xiao Yichen asked.
“The company has completely gone bankrupt. Lin Tianyun still owes the bank 20 million yuan. If he can’t repay the money by the agreed time, Lin Tianyun will face prison life,” You Luan reported truthfully.
After hearing You Luan’s words, Xiao Yichen recalled Lin Wan from yesterday.
If Lin Tianyun went to jail, would the little woman be sad?
“You Luan,” Xiao Yichen suddenly called out.
“Yes,” You Luan replied immediately.
“Think of a way to avoid Lin Tianyun’s imprisonment,” Xiao Yichen instructed.
For the first time, he changed his plan to avoid Lin Wan being sad..
