It was already noon when He Xuchen woke up.
He found that he was actually in Bai Xinrong's room.
He quickly got up, put on his clothes, and opened the door. Yuzhu, who was guarding the door, was startled.
"Master, are you awake? This is the sobering soup that my husband... my aunt asked me to prepare for you."
"Where is she?" He Xuchen asked.
He drank too much yesterday and didn't know if he said too much.
"Auntie went out early in the morning." Yuzhu carefully recalled the words Bai Xinrong taught her, "It seems that she is going to find Miss Lin."
Miss Lin, who else could it be besides Lin Zhiyu
"What is she going to do? Did she tell you?"
"This slave doesn't know." Yuzhu shook his head, glanced at He Xuchen's face, and then said slowly, "But my aunt seemed very sad when she went out."
He Xuchen frowned and was about to leave when Yuzhu reminded him, "Master, sober up soup."
—
Bai Xinrong had never been so kind to Lin Zhiyu.
She sat next to Lin Zhiyu and listened quietly to Lin Zhiyu telling her about the time when she and He Xuchen met and fell in love.
Looking at the girl who seemed to have fallen into memories, Bai Xinrong couldn't bear to disturb her.
"Back then, I ignored my mother's dissuasion, married into the He family, and stood between you and He Xuchen. I felt very guilty. Now that we have reconciled, there is no reason to go back."
Lin Zhiyu's attitude was very resolute, and he had no intention of returning to the He family at all.
"Then for the rest of your life..." Bai Xinrong asked tentatively.
"I won't bother Miss Bai about this. Please go back to where you came from. We don't welcome you in the Lin family."
When Liang Ying heard that Bai Xinrong came to see Lin Zhiyu, she ran back in a hurry.
This person is also strange. Her precious daughter was ostracized everywhere when she was in the He family, and now she wants to take her back after they divorced.
"Oh, by the way, your shameless husband named He is waiting for you outside."
Liang Ying spoke very directly and did not give the He family any face.
Bai Xinrong said goodbye to Lin Zhiyu before leaving.
The system gave her a hundred likes.
A master, really a master.
The heroine came over in a fierce manner, but was converted when she returned.
With such eloquence as the host, it would be a pity not to give speeches and do something great.
Lin Zhiyu rolled his eyes: [What do you know? Only women understand women best.]
System: [That makes sense.]
Bai Xinrong walked out of the Lin family's door, and He Xuchen was already waiting outside.
"Brother Shen, why are you here?"
He Xuchen couldn't even enter the Lin family's door, and his expression was not as bad as usual.
When he saw her coming out, he said to her with a sullen face: "Let's talk about it after we get in the car."
In the car, He Xuchen asked, "What are you doing here at Lin's house?"
I thought He Xuchen wanted to take him back after hearing that he was coming, but he didn't expect that the first thing he said was to question.
Thinking back to his sweet words when he was pursuing her when he returned to China, he felt even more sarcastic now.
The most indispensable thing for people in this world is a mouth that can coax and deceive.
She suddenly felt tired.
He looked at his flat belly and smiled bitterly.
"Yesterday you came back drunk and kept calling Miss Lin's name. I want to invite her back."
"..." He Xuchen didn't expect this to be the case. "I drank too much yesterday. If I said something, don't take it to heart."
Bai Xinrong sighed in her heart.
Telling the truth while drunk is not a joke.
"I know it's just drunken nonsense, so I won't take it to heart. Brother Shen, don't worry."
He Xuchen nodded, "That's good."
He thought for a while and finally asked Bai Xinrong, "How was your conversation with Miss Lin? Is she willing to come back with you?"
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Bai Xinrong's eyes.
She shook her head, "Her mother doesn't let her go out, and I was kicked out just now."
Subconsciously, she didn't know why she didn't tell He Xuchen that Lin Zhiyu didn't want to go back to He's house with her.
Lin Zhiyu's words were like a stone pressing on her heart, making her breathless.
Can she really grow old together with He Xuchen like this
She originally thought that her passionate pursuit would bring her a lifetime of love, but she didn't expect that in He Xuchen's heart, power would always come first.
What is love
To He Xuchen, she might be nothing more than a trophy.
Bai Xinrong's heart sank to the bottom.
She couldn't hear anything He Xuchen said later, and just caressed her belly unconsciously.
Just yesterday, she learned that she was pregnant.
The surprise at that time has now been washed away without a trace.
This little life came at the wrong time.
Bai Xinrong frowned, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was a little bitter.
"Brother Shen, do you still remember that time..."
He Xuchen glanced at her and said, "That's all in the past. Why are you bringing it up?"
Bai Xinrong gave up completely.
"I want to visit Sunset Valley."
I also want to go to Chuyun Mountain to watch the sunrise.
I want to go to the places they used to go to and retrieve the memories.
But the past is the past after all, otherwise why would there be the word once
Bai Xinrong regretted it.
Maybe returning to China was a wrong choice in the first place.
After thinking for a while, she said slowly: "I'm pregnant."
"What can I do if I'm pregnant?" He Xuchen was originally worried about Lin Zhiyu, but he suddenly couldn't react when he heard the good news.
"When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?"
"I only found out yesterday." Bai Xinrong lowered her head, "Yesterday... you drank too much and kept clamoring to see Miss Lin."
He Xuchen also fell silent.
"Sorry, I will..."
Bai Xinrong interrupted him, "No need to apologize or promise anything. Brother Shen, do you still love me?"
She can accept serving the same man with other women, as long as all that man's thoughts are on her.
But He Xuchen's heart was no longer what it used to be.
"What are you asking?" He Xuchen was a little unhappy, "You don't believe me?"
"No, just asking."
Lin Zhiyu: There should be applause here.
Cherish life and stay away from scumbags.
Facts have proved that all sweet words will change in the end, either you love them more or you don’t love them anymore.
He Xuchen is obviously a scumbag without knowing it.
After repeatedly confirming that his life would not be disturbed, Lin Zhiyu began to plan how to protect himself and his family in this war.
The war started in the Jiangnan area, and eventually spread to the north and south. In the end, the capital was not spared.
In this situation of internal and external troubles, how can a behemoth like the Lin family protect itself
After much thought, apart from self-protection, the only option was to take the initiative.
Since he, He Xuchen, could use the Lin family's power and connections to raise troops, why couldn't she
As soon as he said it, Lin Zhiyu asked the old lady to get the key to the warehouse and went to Brother Hei's territory that day.
This was her first time in a place like this, and she looked around curiously.
Unexpectedly, the person who sells arms also lives in the villa.
"Stop! Who are you?"
Lin Zhiyu looked left and right, and finally caught the guard's attention.
"I am Lin Zhiyu, the eldest daughter of the Lin family. I have a business deal with Brother Hei."
