Chapter 1273: Chapter 1273: Sir Lin’s Considerations
Lin Wei rubbed his swelling forehead. These past few years, his health had been deteriorating, though he still appeared hale on the surface.
He always kept a stoic face around others, but speaking to his wife of many decades, he finally voiced out his true feelings.
“Actually, I don’t dislike that girl. The kid nad Rong Yan, although her background isn’t great, doesn’t have other issues. Her personality also ets the standards of our Lin Family; it’s just that Shengxiao has a fiancée. Before her family ca knocking, I could turn a blind eye. But now that they’re here in Capital City, if our family doesn’t make a statent and still supports them, who do you think will suffer?”
Lin Wei closed his eyes, speaking in a tired voice, “It’s Shengxiao who will lose out! We can’t control others; we can only choose to protect our own.”
Old Madam Lin sighed, then said no more.
…
On the other side, Rong Yan was angrily dragged out by Lin Zhiya, just as Cui Jiangjing and Fu Yi, who were together, arrived.
“Mrs. Lin, Rong Yan, oh, and Little Baby? What are you doing out here?” Cui Jiangjing, who was familiar with Lin Zhiya from childhood, sauntered over and asked.
Lin Zhiya kept a stern face, “Soone doesn’t welco us here, so I took Yanyan out.”
“Who would that be?” Cui Jiangjing casually asked.
Fu Yi kicked him on the calf, eliciting a yelp from him, who then turned around and grumbled, “Are you crazy, kicking like that? Damn, that hurts, I should kick you back!”
Fu Yi was fed up with the fool, giving him a stern look, “Shut up for a bit!”
“I didn’t say anything… Ow…” He then realized his mistake and imdiately looked at Lin Zhiya with a guilty face.
Lin Zhiya, coming with Little Yan Rong to Mada Lin’s birthday banquet, besides that stubborn old general, who else could have ‘not welcod’ them?
He sneaked a glance towards Rong Yan and noticed she seed composed. He pursed his lips, unsure how to comfort her.
Fu Yi, being smarter, pondered for a while and then suggested to Lin Zhiya, “We haven’t seen Mrs. Lin in a long ti; since we bumped into you, let’s all have dinner together.”
“Yes, yes, let’s all eat together!” Cui Jiangjing ca around and strongly agreed!
Lin Zhiya, though still upset, didn’t want to spoil it for others. Her frown softened as she said, “Yanyan and I will go eat; you guys should continue enjoying the birthday banquet.”
Cui Jiangjing teased with a chuckle, “My parents are inside; one more or one less of makes no difference. eting Mrs. Lin is rarer than this event. Fu Yi is right, it’s not often we et; let’s all have dinner together. Unless~”
He winked his flirty eyes, “unless our stunning beauty here would refuse to give us face and dine with us.”
“Pfft!” Lin Zhiya laughed, blooming like a flower, and teased him, “You’re not young anymore, still calling a beauty. Soone might laugh their teeth off hearing that.”
“How is it not suitable? Beauty is like wine, it requires aging to beco exquisite! Mrs. Lin, you are like finely aged wine, a sight that intoxicates .”
“You smooth talker, I’m going to tell your mom.”
“No, no, I was wrong, I was wrong. Little Yan Rong, please put in a good word for .” Cui Jiangjing acted dramatically, instantly lightening the heavy atmosphere.
Fu Yi, more composed, let the valet bring around the car, and when it was ti, he opened the door, helping everyone into the vehicle.
