Chapter 834: Chapter 833: Exhortation, Give Up Hope
After Jiang Mingyuan’s wedding, Lin Xia and Lin Dong were driven back to their ho.
Lin Xia tidied up and prepared to leave alone on the afternoon train, while Lin Dong and his protector stayed behind.
Lin Xia packed her things and intentionally left so extra cash for Lin Dong, telling him to take Lin Aiguo for a check-up.
Lin Xia felt that in doing this, she had fulfilled her moral duty towards Lin Aiguo.
What Lin Aiguo did in the past would not be forgotten, but she didn’t want to dwell on it anymore.
Life is short, rely a few decades.
Letting go of the burden of hatred and moving forward lightly brings relaxation, freedom, and happiness.
“Big sister! Don’t worry, I’ll take him for a check-up!” Lin Dong didn’t expect his sister to leave him with so much money before she left.
Actually, he had intended to use the money his siblings had given him to take their father to see a doctor.
Regardless of how their father treated them, they still carried his blood in their veins.
Seeing his father frail and sickly made him feel very distressed.
“Okay, I know you’re reliable. But, Dongzi, I still have to tell you, the family doesn’t only include him; there are others too.
Big sister gave you this money, and I won’t be upset with how you spend it, but I’ll be angry if it goes to them.”
Lin Xia knew that her brother wasn’t as naive and soft-hearted as their older brother; Lin Dong was soone with a firm mind.
But despite his strong will, he was still a student who hadn’t graduated, and perhaps hadn’t yet fully experienced familial manipulation.
Lin Xia did not want their money to be exploited by the Lin Family, allowing them to gain advantage unfairly.
Lin Dong had always listened to Lin Xia ticulously. He nodded vehently and promised, “Big sister, don’t worry, I’ll keep a tight hold on the money. No one will take advantage of !”
He had an excellent mory; he rembered who treated them well and who didn’t from childhood through adulthood.
It was just that sotis, for the sake of face, he found it hard to confront these issues directly.
“Alright!” Lin Xia thought of Xu Haihua, “Also, don’t think about causing trouble for Xu Haihua. They’re worse off than us, so there’s no need.” She didn’t want uncontrollable matters to disrupt her brother’s life.
Lin Dong also did not intend to be petty with a woman, “I know, I won’t.”
Lin Xia returned to the provincial city without any issues.
Shao irou was particularly curious about the details of Jiang Mingyuan’s wedding, and Lin Xia was happy to share. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted joyfully.
When there was a chance, Lin Xia handed the photos of Luo Yue’s son that she had brought back to Lu Pengcheng.
Lu Pengcheng also learned from Lin Xia about Luo Yue’s situation, and he studied the few precious photos in his hands for a long ti.
A few days after Lin Xia returned, Lin Dong called her with the results of Lin Aiguo’s health check.
Other than so issues with his liver and cardiovascular system, nothing major was wrong.
At last, they could all breathe a sigh of relief.
That day, while Lin Xia was working in the factory, the gatekeeper called to say there was a woman nad Lu Qing at the door looking for her. Lin Xia did not expect Lu Qing to show up suddenly, so she quickly had her let in.
Lin Xia then thought, why did Lu Qing co so suddenly? Was it because of Jiang Mingyuan’s wedding?
Lu Qing already had a boyfriend she was discussing marriage with. The man’s family background was quite good. They were well-matched, and Lin Xia had once seen the young man by chance, looking very compatible with Lu Qing.
Lu Qing walked in, dressed in a white dress, with her hair down over her shoulders, appearing very ladylike and elegant.
However, the trace of sadness between her brows added a touch of lancholy.
Lin Xia welcod Lu Qing warmly, “Lu Qing! Welco to our factory. Have a seat, coffee or tea?”
“Tea, please!” Lu Qing did not rush to sit on the guest sofa but strolled leisurely around the spacious office, smiling slightly, “Sister-in-law, I was out of town when your factory opened, so this is my first visit. It’s really well done.”
“Not bad,” Lin Xia handed the freshly brewed tea to Lu Qing, asking gently, “What brings you here today?”
Sitting face to face, the smile on Lu Qing’s lips faded, and she said with a sense of loss, “Sister-in-law, I believe you have guessed why I ca.”
Lin Xia nodded, “Yes, I guessed a bit. It’s about Jiang Mingyuan, right?”
Lu Qing smiled bitterly, “Yes, how is Jiang Mingyuan’s wife? Is she beautiful? What’s her personality like? Do they look good together?”
“She’s very beautiful, and a nice person…” Lin Xia gave her assessnt of Jiang Mingyuan’s wife.
Lu Qing pursed her lips tightly after hearing this, “Oh, I thought he would find soone pretty. I haven’t been in touch with Jiang Mingqing for a long ti. When she told her second brother was getting married, I couldn’t even ask for details and had to hastily hang up.”
“You haven’t forgotten him?” Lin Xia understood quite a bit about Lu Qing’s feelings for Jiang Mingyuan.
She had originally thought that with Lu Qing’s new boyfriend, she would have moved on from Jiang Mingyuan completely.
Lu Qing smiled wryly, “Sister-in-law! To be honest, I can’t forget him. But now that he’s married, I can finally let go completely.”
Her lingering feelings for Jiang Mingyuan were possibly due to them never having married soone else.
Now that he belonged to another woman as a married man, she too should let go.
Lin Xia could see that Lu Qing was no longer the stubborn girl she used to be. As she aged, she was changing and growing.
“It’s good that you’ve realized this. Shall we go out for a al? I’ll treat you to sothing nice.”
Lu Qing smiled and agreed, “Sure, sister-in-law, you have to treat to sothing expensive!”
“Of course, I’ll take you to eat sothing both expensive and tasty!” In Lu Zheng’s family, he was the only child, and Lin Xia had no sister-in-law, with Lu Qing being her only step-sister-in-law. If she could get along with her, she would certainly be willing to foster a good relationship.
Despite past misunderstandings and disputes between them, everything was now behind them.
With autumn here, the weather was turning colder day by day, and Lin Xia was thinking of buying a car to get around.
With the factory’s business doing well, Lin Xia often had to visit clients, and biking was too tiring. Motorcycles were impractical in the rain and cold, hence her desire for a car.
If she wanted to buy a car, she could do so easily and quickly.
However, the priority was to first learn how to drive.
When Lu Zheng heard his wife wanted to buy a car and learn to drive, he supported her fully.
But with limited ti to be ho, the task of teaching her fell to Shao Xingbang.
Shao Xingbang was an excellent teacher, and Lin Xia was a good student.
Within a few days, Lin Xia had learned to drive and felt confident enough to take Shao Xingbang out on the road.
