The gentle care of her mother and the unwavering support of her elder brother instantly made Lin Banxia feel that life was beautiful.
"Brother, Mom, I want to personally go and talk to Chu Tingting about this matter. Sooner or later, I’ll have to face it anyway," Lin Banxia suddenly decided. All along, it had always been Chu Tingting coming to her doorstep to cause trouble. This ti, she wanted to give her a surprise.
Mu Jiyang imdiately said, "I’ll go with you!"
"No need, Brother. I know where to find her, and I want to go alone!" Lin Banxia’s heart burned with fury at the thought of her mother’s pocket watch being snatched away by Tingting.
Even bullying soone should have its limits. Clearly, Chu Tingting didn’t know where to draw the line.
She had always assud the status of Huo Yanting’s fiancée, constantly parading around, treating Lin Banxia like dirt beneath her feet.
Lin Banxia had had enough.
Cheng Roning gently held her hand and advised, "Banxia, when you see Tingting, try to talk to her first. Don’t argue with her—she’s still my niece after all."
"Mom, don’t worry. I only want to clarify this matter; I don’t have any other intentions," Lin Banxia reassured her, knowing that her mother was worried she’d go there to settle scores.
Mu Jiyang also expressed his concern, saying, "Tingting has a bad temper. If she starts arguing with you, don’t just stand there dumbly and let her scold you—you should walk away imdiately."
Lin Banxia had always thought highly of her elder brother because he was upright and now especially caring toward her.
"Don’t worry, I’m not there to stir up trouble!" After saying goodbye to her mother and brother, Lin Banxia drove straight to the Huo Group’s headquarters building.
In the lobby, Lin Banxia’s appearance imdiately attracted countless curious stares.
Lin Banxia knew her reputation at the Huo Group had hit rock bottom, but she had hidden long enough—there was no need to keep avoiding anymore.
Could it be that just because Chu Tingting had risen to prominence, she as the "outdated one" should spend every day wallowing in tears?
Last ti, Chu Tingting had slandered her online and even sent people to create chaos at the pear garden. Banxia had refrained from fighting back not because she was timid, but because she feared it might arouse Old Sir Huo’s suspicions and spark a crisis for Huo Yanting at the Huo Group.
But now Lin Banxia felt she had an entirely legitimate reason to et Chu Tingting.
"Look, isn’t that Lin Banxia?"
"Yes, that’s her. Why is she here?"
"She might be here for President Huo. What a pity—she’s so out of touch! Doesn’t she know that President Huo has been out on a business trip for days?"
Lin Banxia walked straight to the reception desk and asked politely, "I’d like to see Chu Tingting. Could you help notify her?"
The receptionists, who had been gossiping about her, perked up even more at the ntion of Chu Tingting, sensing that there was surely so drama about to unfold.
"Miss Lin, I can help you make a call to inquire, but whether Assistant Chu agrees to see you isn’t up to us," one receptionist replied.
"Thank you so much!" Lin Banxia smiled faintly.
A group of won nearby were scrutinizing her, as if trying to find traces of heartbreak and despair from being abandoned by Huo Yanting on her face.
Unfortunately, Lin Banxia’s porcelain-fair, elegant face remained radiant and refined—nothing at all like soone moping after a breakup.
One of the receptionists hung up the phone and led her toward the elevator. "Miss Chu agreed to see you. I’ll unlock the access for you—you can go up now."
Lin Banxia stepped into the elevator and thanked the receptionist.
She knew Chu Tingting would definitely agree to et her.
No reason was needed—simply because she was Huo Yanting’s ex-wife.
When Lin Banxia arrived at the floor where Chu Tingting was, Tingting was dressed in a dazzling cobalt-blue professional outfit. Her hair was elegantly styled, and her makeup was flawless, radiating charm and sophistication.
Seated in her office chair, legs crossed, she exuded an air of pride and grace. However, her gaze was cold as she looked at Lin Banxia. "I heard you wanted to see !"
